ARTICLE III

3.1 Merger Consideration; Conversion of Shares of Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of any capital stock of the Company, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than Excluded Shares (such shares of Company Common Stock, the “Eligible Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive cash in the amount of $23.04 per share (the “Merger Consideration”).

3.2 Conversion of Shares of Company Common Stock. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of any capital stock of the Company, all of the Eligible Shares shall represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate formerly representing any of the Eligible Shares (each, a “Certificate”) and each book-entry account formerly representing any non-certificated Eligible Shares (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest.

3.3 Cancellation of Excluded Shares. Each Excluded Share shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of any Excluded Share, cease to be outstanding, be cancelled without payment of any consideration therefor and shall cease to exist, subject to any rights the holder thereof may have pursuant to Section 4.7.

-3-

3.5 Treatment of Equity Awards. At the Effective Time, the Company Equity Awards will receive the following treatment, in each case in accordance with and subject to the terms set forth in Sections 3.5(a)-(f) and the other provisions of this Agreement: (i) each Vested Company Option that is not designated as a Rollover Equity Award by its holder will be converted into a right to promptly receive a cash payment based on its spread value; (ii) the spread value of each Vested Company Option that is designated by its holder as a Rollover Equity Award will be converted to common stock of Parent (or a parent of Parent); (iii) each Unvested Company Option will be converted to a cash award, based on its spread value, that remains subject to the same vesting schedule that applied immediately prior to the Effective Time; (iv) each Company RSU will be converted to a cash award, based on the Merger Consideration, that remains subject to the same vesting schedule that applied immediately prior to the Effective Time; (v) each Company P-RSU will be converted to a cash award, based on the Merger Consideration and the actual performance of such Company P-RSU through the Effective Time, that otherwise remains subject to the same vesting schedule that applied immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (vi) each Company DSU will be converted into a right to promptly receive a cash payment, based on the Merger Consideration. With respect to the foregoing, the spread value of a Company Option will be determined by subtracting the per share exercise price of such Company Option from the Merger Consideration, and any Company Option for which the per share exercise price is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration will be cancelled for no consideration.

(a) Company Options. At the Effective Time, (i) each outstanding vested option (or vested portion thereof) to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (a “Vested Company Option”), other than any Rollover Equity Awards, shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Vested Company Option to receive (without interest), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but no later than three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Vested Company Option less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment and (ii) each outstanding unvested option (or unvested portion thereof) to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (an “Unvested Company Option” and, together with the Vested Company Options, the “Company Options”) under the Stock Plans shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Unvested Company Option to receive an amount in cash, without interest (a “Company Option Deferred Cash Award”) equal to the product of (x) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per share of such Unvested Company Option less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Company Option which has an exercise price per share that is greater than or equal to the Merger Consideration shall be cancelled at the Effective Time for no consideration or payment. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each such Company Option Deferred Cash Award will be subject to the same vesting schedule and other terms and conditions (other than with respect to exercise) applicable to the corresponding Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and be paid on the applicable vesting date.

-4-

(b) Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each outstanding restricted stock unit that is subject only to service-based vesting conditions (a “Company RSU”) under the Stock Plans shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest (a “Company RSU Deferred Cash Award”) equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each such Company RSU Deferred Cash Award will be subject to the same vesting schedule and other terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Company P-RSUs. At the Effective Time, each outstanding restricted stock unit that is subject to performance-based vesting conditions (a “Company P-RSU”) under the Stock Plans shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Company P-RSU to receive an amount in cash, without interest (a “Company P-RSU Deferred Cash Award” and together with the Company Option Deferred Cash Awards and the Company RSU Deferred Cash Awards, “Replacement Deferred Cash Awards”) equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company P-RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time based on the actual performance through the Effective Time as determined by the compensation committee of the Company Board (the “Company Compensation Committee”) multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent there are any Company P-RSUs for which the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Company P-RSU as determined in accordance with clause (x) of the preceding sentence is zero, such Company P-RSU shall be cancelled at the Effective Time for no consideration or payment. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each such Company P-RSU Deferred Cash Award will be subject to the same vesting schedule and other terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Company P-RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Company DSUs. At the Effective Time, each outstanding deferred stock unit (a “Company DSU”) under the Company’s Director Deferred Compensation Plan, shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Company DSU to receive (without interest), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in any event no later than three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time), an amount in cash equal to (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company DSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment; provided, that, with respect to any Company DSUs that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and that are not permitted to be paid at the Effective Time without triggering a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall be made at the earliest time permitted under the Company’s Director Deferred Compensation Plan and a participant’s deferral elections that will not trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code.

-5-

(e) Company Equity Payments. Any payments to which holders of Company Options, Company RSUs, Company P-RSUs and Company DSUs (collectively, the “Company Equity Awards”) are entitled to pursuant to Section 3.5(a), Section 3.5(b), Section 3.5(c) and Section 3.5(d), respectively (collectively, the “Company Equity Payments”) shall be made through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll (except in the case of Company DSUs) and in accordance with Section 3.5(a), Section 3.5(b), Section 3.5(c) and Section 3.5(d). Parent and Merger Sub shall ensure that the Surviving Corporation has an amount in cash, or immediately available borrowing capacity, sufficient to pay all amounts required by the foregoing sentence.

(f) Company Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board and the Company Compensation Committee, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to (x) effectuate the treatment of the Company Equity Awards pursuant to Section 3.5(a), Section 3.5(b), Section 3.5(c) and Section 3.5(d) and (y) cause the Stock Plans and the Company’s Director Deferred Compensation Plan to terminate at or prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the Effective Time neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver shares of Company Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company to any Person pursuant to or in settlement of Company Equity Awards.

ARTICLE IV

DELIVERY OF MERGER CONSIDERATION; PROCEDURES FOR SURRENDER

4.1 Paying Agent. At the Effective Time, or as promptly as possible thereafter, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with a paying agent selected by Parent and approved by the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Eligible Shares, an aggregate amount of cash necessary for the Paying Agent to make payments under Section 3.1 (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). The paying agent agreement pursuant to which Parent shall appoint the Paying Agent shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than a purpose expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund may be invested by the Paying Agent as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that any such investment shall in all events be limited to (i) direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the United States government, in commercial paper rated P-1 or A-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, (ii) certificates of deposit or bank repurchase agreements of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion or (iii) AAA rated 2A-7 fixed NAV money market funds (or those of similar quality), or a combination of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months. To the extent that there are losses with respect to such deposits, a default of an applicable bank or for any other reason any amount in the Exchange Fund is below that required to make prompt payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration and the other payments contemplated by this Article IV, Parent

-6-

and the Surviving Corporation shall promptly replace or restore, or cause the replacement or restoration, of the cash in the Exchange Fund lost through such investments or other events so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient for the Paying Agent to make the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration contemplated by this Article IV. Any interest and other income resulting from such deposit may become part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable under Section 3.1 may, at the discretion of Parent, be promptly returned to Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

4.2 Procedures for Surrender.

(a) With respect to Certificates, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to provide or make available to each holder of record of each such Certificate (i) notice advising such holders of the effectiveness of the Merger, (ii) a letter of transmittal in customary form, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to a Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 4.5) to the Paying Agent (the “Letter of Transmittal”), and (iii) instructions for surrendering a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 4.5) to the Paying Agent. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 4.5) together with a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to promptly provide or make available to each holder of record of any such Certificate in exchange therefore a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.6) of (A) the number of Eligible Shares represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 4.5) multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(b) With respect to each Book-Entry Share not held through DTC (each, a “Non-DTC Book-Entry Share”), promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to provide or make available to each holder of record of a Non-DTC Book-Entry Share (i) a notice advising such holders of the effectiveness of the Merger and (ii) a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.6) of (A) the number of Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares held by such holder multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration, and the Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(c) With respect to Book-Entry Shares held through DTC, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Paying Agent and DTC to ensure that the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees on the Closing Date (or if Closing occurs after 8:30 a.m. (California Time) on the Closing Date, on the first Business Day after the Closing Date), upon surrender of Eligible Shares held of record by DTC or its nominees in accordance with DTC’s customary surrender procedures, the Merger Consideration for each such Eligible Share that each such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Article IV.

(d) No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable for Eligible Shares pursuant to this Article IV.

-7-

4.3 Transfers.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the shares of the Company’s capital stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of the Company’s capital stock except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(b) With respect to Certificates, in the event of a transfer of ownership of any Certificate that is not registered in the transfer books of the Company as of the Effective Time, a check for the cash (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.6) to be paid upon due surrender of the Certificate, may be issued or paid to such a transferee if the Certificate is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid or are not applicable, in each case, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Paying Agent. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.3, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Article IV.

(c) With respect to Book-Entry Shares, payment of the Merger Consideration, payable pursuant to this Article IV, shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered in the stock transfer books of the Company as of the Effective Time.

4.4 Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any deposit of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed by the holders of the Eligible Shares one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent. Any holder of Eligible Shares who has not theretofore complied with this Article IV shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Corporation for delivery of the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Article IV. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any Per Share Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof designated by the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of any claim or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

4.5 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that 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 the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be required as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will, subject to Section 4.7 in respect of any Certificate representing Excluded Shares, issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Article IV, had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

-8-

4.6 Withholding Rights. Each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation 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 Company Equity Awards such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable.

4.7 Appraisal Rights. No Person who has perfected a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock owned by such Person unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Person’s right to appraisal under the DGCL. Each Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided by Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to shares of Company Common Stock owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law that are received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and Proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

(b) Parent has delivered to the Company a complete and accurate copy of an executed commitment letter of even date herewith, and the executed fee letter related thereto of even date herewith (except that the fee amounts, pricing caps, other economic terms and other “market flex” provisions may be redacted so long as no redaction covers terms that would adversely affect the amount (including the net cash proceeds to Parent), conditionality, availability or termination of the Debt Financing, as hereinafter defined), together with any related exhibits, schedules, annexes, supplements, term sheets and other agreements (collectively and as amended from time to time, the “Debt Commitment Letter” and together with the Equity Commitment Letter, the “Financing Commitment Letters”), pursuant to which the agents, arrangers, managers, lenders and other entities party thereto (excluding Parent, Merger Sub or the Guarantors), including the parties to any joinder agreements joining such parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or parties (excluding Parent, Merger Sub or Guarantor) to the definitive agreements executed in connection with the Debt Financing (together with their respective affiliates and their respective affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, controlling persons, agents and Representatives and their respective successors and assigns, collectively, the “Debt Financing Sources” and, together with the Equity Financing Source, the “Financing Source”) have committed to provide, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, debt financing for the Merger and the other Transactions in the aggregate amount set forth therein (the “Debt Financing” and, together with the Equity Financing, the “Financing”).

Other than the Financing Commitment Letters, as of the date of this Agreement there are

-29-

no other agreements, side letters or arrangements to which Parent is a party relating to the funding or investing, as applicable, of the Financing that could affect the availability of the Financing or any portion thereof on the Closing Date. As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has paid in full any and all commitment or other fees required by the Financing Commitment Letters that are due as of the date of this Agreement. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is in breach of any of the terms or conditions set forth in the Financing Commitment Letters and, as of the date of this Agreement, to the Knowledge of Parent, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a breach, default or failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth therein. As of the date of this Agreement, no Financing Source has notified Parent of its intention to terminate any commitment set forth in the Financing Commitment Letters or not to provide the Financing. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the funding of the full amount of the Financing (including any “flex” provisions), other than as expressly set forth in the Financing Commitment Letters. As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any conditions to the funding of the full amount of the Financing to be satisfied by it, or that the Financing will not be available to Parent on the Closing Date. Parent acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to consummate the Transactions, is not and will not be subject to the receipt by Parent or Merger Sub of any financing or the consummation of any other transaction.

(e) None of the Guarantors, the Equity Financing Source, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates has entered into any Contract with any Person (other than a Debt Financing Source) prohibiting or seeking to prohibit such Person from providing or seeking to provide debt financing to any Person in connection with a transaction relating to the acquisition of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

6.8 Solvency. None of Parent, Merger Sub, any Guarantor or the Equity Financing Source is entering into this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Assuming (a) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 (in each case, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing), (b) that the representations and warranties set forth in Article V as written are true and correct at and immediately after the Closing and (c) the estimates, projections or forecasts provided by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries to Parent or Merger Sub prior to the date hereof (as may have been updated in writing prior to the date hereof) have been prepared in good faith on assumptions that were, and

-30-

continue to be, reasonable, at and immediately after the Closing (it being understood that Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) shall not affect the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections or forecasts), then, after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions (including the Financing being entered into in connection therewith), the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries would be Solvent.

As of the date hereof, the Limited Guarantee is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception, and has not been amended, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect. No event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of any Guarantor under the Limited Guarantee.

(i) provide information in response to a request therefor (including non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal; provided that such information has previously been made available to Parent or its Representatives or is made available to Parent promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) after such information is made available to such Person and that, prior to furnishing any such information, the Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality agreement with terms no more favorable in any material respect, individually or in the aggregate, to the other party than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, it being understood that such confidentiality agreements need not prohibit or restrict the making or amendment of an Acquisition Proposal; provided, that (x) the Company shall not pay, agree to pay or cause to be paid, or reimburse, agree to reimburse or cause to be reimbursed the expenses of any such Person in connection with any Acquisition Proposals (or inquiries, proposals or offers or other efforts or attempts that may lead to an Acquisition Proposal), in each case, without the prior written consent of Parent and (y) the Company shall implement reasonable protections for any competitively sensitive information or data provided to any such Person who is, or whose Affiliates include, a key competitor, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as determined by the Company Board in its judgment); and

(ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations with any such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal;

in each case, if, and only if, prior to taking any action described in clause (i) or (ii) above, the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor that (A) based on the information then available and after consultation with its financial advisor that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (B) failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(d) Except as permitted by Section 7.2(e) and Section 7.2(f), the Company Board, including any committee thereof, shall not:

(i) (A) withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify) the Company Recommendation with respect to the Merger in a manner adverse to Parent, (B) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (C) take any action or make any recommendation or public statement in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer other than an unequivocal recommendation against such offer or a temporary “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company Board of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act in which the Company Board

-38-

or the Company indicates that the Company Board has not changed the Company Recommendation or (D) if reasonably requested by in writing by Parent in a timely manner, fail to reaffirm the Company Recommendation within three (3) Business Days prior to the Stockholders Meeting (provided, that the Company Board shall not be required to comply with more than one (1) such request);

(ii) approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable or publicly propose to enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(c) entered into in compliance with Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(c)) providing for any Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement,” and any of the actions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), a “Change of Recommendation”); or

(iii) cause or permit the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the time the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, the Company Board may (A) effect a Change of Recommendation if (x)(1) a written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board believes in good faith is bona fide and that did not arise from or in connection with a breach of the obligations set forth in Section 7.2 is received by the Company and is not withdrawn, and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or (2) an Intervening Event has occurred, and (y) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that failure to take such action in response to such Superior Proposal or Intervening Event, as applicable, would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (B) take action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 9.4(a) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement in connection with a Superior Proposal if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that a Change of Recommendation in response to a Superior Proposal or Intervening Event or action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4(a) may not be made (i) unless the Company shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 7.2(e) and (ii) unless and until the Company has given Parent written notice of such action five (5) Business Days in advance (an “Initial Notice”), setting forth in writing that the Company Board intends to consider whether to take such action and (I) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and (II) in the case of an Intervening Event, a reasonable description of such Intervening Event (it being agreed that, in each case, neither the delivery of such notice by the Company nor any public announcement thereof that the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, is required to be made under applicable Law shall constitute a Change of Recommendation). After giving such Initial Notice and prior to effecting such Change of Recommendation or taking such action to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4(a), the Company shall, and shall instruct its legal and financial advisors to, negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives throughout such five (5) Business Day period (to the

-39-

extent Parent wishes to negotiate) to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board not to effect a Change of Recommendation or to take such action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4(a). At the end of the five (5) Business Day period, prior to taking action to effect a Change of Recommendation or taking action to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4(a), the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in writing and any other information offered by Parent in response to the Initial Notice, and shall have determined in good faith that (i) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (ii) in the case of an Intervening Event, the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, in each case, if such changes offered in writing were to be given effect. Any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 7.2(e) except that the obligation to give advance written notice (a “Change Notice”) with respect thereto as set forth in this Section 7.2(e) shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective boards of directors or any committee thereof, from complying with its disclosure obligations under any Laws, including U.S. federal or state law, with regard to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that (i) if such disclosure includes a Change of Recommendation or has the substantive effect of withdrawing or adversely modifying the Company Recommendation, such disclosure shall be deemed to be a Change of Recommendation and (ii) in no event shall the Company effect, or agree or resolve to effect, a Change of Recommendation other than in compliance with this Section 7.2.

(g) The Company shall not release any third party from, or waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under or fail to enforce, any standstill provision in any confidentiality agreement in connection with an Acquisition Proposal to which the Company is a party that remains in effect following the execution of this Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Company may waive any such standstill provision to the extent necessary to permit a third party to make an Acquisition Proposal.

(h) On or before the thirty-fifth (35^th) day of the Go-Shop Period and within 24 hours following the end of the Go-Shop Period, the Company shall notify Parent of the material terms and conditions of any proposal or offer regarding an Acquisition Proposal (including any amendments or modifications thereof) theretofore received during the Go-Shop Period (which shall include an copy of such proposal or offer (which copy may be redacted to omit the identity of the Person making such proposal or offer; provided that, if requested by Parent, an unredacted copy shall be provided to Parent promptly following the expiration of the Go-Shop Period) and a summary of any financing material related thereto (if any)). The Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) give written notice to Parent if, following the expiration of the Go-Shop Period, (i) any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to an Acquisition Proposal are received by, (ii) any non-public information is

-40-

requested in connection with any Acquisition Proposal from, or (iii) any discussions or negotiation with respect to an Acquisition Proposal are sought to be initiated or continued with, it or any of its Representatives, indicating, in connection with such notice the name of such Person or group and the material terms and conditions of any proposals or offers (including, if applicable, unredacted copies of any written requests, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements, or where no such copies are available, a reasonably detailed written description thereof) and thereafter shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a current basis (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours), of the status and material terms of any such proposals, or offers (including any material amendments thereto) and any material changes to the status of any such discussions or negotiations, including any change in the Company’s intentions as previously notified.

(i) The Company agrees that any material breach of this Section 7.2 by any of its directors, officers named in the definition of “Knowledge”, Qatalyst Partners LP or Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP (collectively, the “Specified Representatives”) shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

7.3 Proxy Filing; Information Supplied.

(a) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, a proxy statement in preliminary form relating to the Stockholders Meeting (such proxy statement, including any amendment or supplement thereto, the “Proxy Statement”). The Company shall promptly notify Parent of the receipt of all comments of the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement and of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement thereto or for additional information and shall promptly provide to Parent copies of all correspondence between the Company and/or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other, with respect to the Proxy Statement.

The Company and Parent each shall, upon request by the other, furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Proxy Statement. The Company and Parent each agree, as to itself and its respective Subsidiaries, that (i) the Proxy Statement will comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and (ii) none of the information supplied by it or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date of mailing to stockholders of the Company or at the time of the Stockholders Meeting contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(a) Subject to Section 7.2 of this Agreement, the Company will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its Organizational Documents, all action necessary to convene the Stockholders Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the definitive Proxy Statement (but in no event shall such meeting be required to be held prior to five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Go-Shop Period), to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement and to cause such vote to be taken, and shall not postpone or adjourn such meeting except (A) if there are not holders of a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock present or represented by proxy at the Stockholders Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Stockholders Meeting, (B) if the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Stockholders Meeting by applicable Law, order of Governmental Entity or a request from the SEC or its staff or (C) if there has been a Change of Recommendation and the Company Board (or any committee thereof) has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that it is necessary or appropriate to postpone or adjourn the Stockholders Meeting in order to give the stockholders of the Company sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has disseminated or otherwise made available to such stockholders, in which case the Company may postpone or adjourn the Stockholders Meeting one (1) time, but only for such period as the Company Board (or such committee) has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) is necessary or appropriate to give the stockholders of the Company sufficient time to evaluate such information or disclosure, which in any event shall not exceed five (5) Business Days. Subject to Section 7.2 of this Agreement, the Company Board shall recommend such adoption and shall take all lawful action to solicit such adoption. In the event that subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Company Board makes a Change of Recommendation, the Company nevertheless shall continue to submit this Agreement to the stockholders of the Company for approval at the Stockholders Meeting unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Stockholders Meeting. Once the Company has established a record date for the Stockholders Meeting, the Company will not change such record date or establish a different record date for the Stockholders Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Neither the Company nor Parent shall permit any of its officers or other Representatives to participate in any meeting or substantive correspondence or telephone discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry relating to the Transactions unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, unless prohibited by such Governmental Entity, gives the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate thereat.

(i) promptly provide to each and every federal, state, local or foreign court or Governmental Entity with jurisdiction over enforcement of any applicable Antitrust Law (each, a “Governmental Antitrust Entity”) of non-privileged information and documents requested by any Governmental Antitrust Entity or that are necessary, proper or advisable to permit consummation of the Transactions;

-44-

and holding separate of, assets, operations, rights, product lines, licenses, businesses or interests therein of the Company, Parent, either of their respective Subsidiaries or, with respect to Parent, its other Affiliates (and the entry into agreements with, and submission to orders of, the relevant Governmental Antitrust Entity giving effect thereto) if such action should be reasonably necessary, proper or advisable so as to permit the consummation of the Transactions as promptly as practicable (it being understood that, no such action will be binding on the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates unless it is contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing); and

(iii) promptly use its reasonable best efforts to take, in the event that any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or Law is entered, issued or enacted, or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered, issued or enacted, in any Proceeding, review or inquiry of any kind that would make consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unlawful or that would delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions, any and all steps (including, without limitation, the appeal thereof, the posting of a bond or the taking of the other steps contemplated hereby) as may be necessary or appropriate to resist, vacate, modify, reverse, suspend, prevent, eliminate, avoid or remove such actual, anticipated or threatened injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or enactment so as to permit such consummation on a schedule as close as possible to that contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Without limiting the generality of the undertakings pursuant to this Section 7.6, but on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Company (in the case of clause (i) below) and Parent (in the case of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) below) agree to take or cause to be taken the following actions:

(i) promptly provide to BaFin and the FFSA all information and documents as required by applicable Laws, or as requested by BaFin or the German Federal Reserve (Bundesbank) or the FFSA or that are necessary, proper or advisable in regards to the regulatory status of the Company and its Subsidiaries, all of which information shall be accurate, complete and in compliance with applicable Law;

(ii) file promptly and within the deadlines set by applicable Laws, and in any event substantially simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, a notification of intent to purchase an indirect significant stake in InterCard AG pursuant to Section 14 para. 1 of the German Payment Services Act (Zahlungsdiensteaufsichtsgesetz) in connection with Section 2c of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) with BaFin and the German Federal Reserve (Bundesbank);

(iii) file promptly and within the deadlines set by applicable Laws, a notification of intent to purchase an indirect significant stake in Verifone Finland Oy pursuant to Section 21c of the Finnish Act on Payment Institutions (Maksulaitoslaki); and

-45-

(iv) other than as would result in a Burdensome Condition, use reasonable best efforts to take any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Law relating to any consent, approval, no-action letter or authorization by BaFin and/or the FFSA to enable the parties hereto to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate arrangements or orders, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of such of its and their assets, properties or businesses or of the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired by Parent pursuant hereto, and entering into such other arrangements, as are necessary in order to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Law relating to any consent, approval, no-action letter or authorization by BaFin and/or the FFSA to enable the parties hereto to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions and to avoid the entry of, and the commencement of litigation seeking the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or Proceeding that would otherwise have the effect of materially delaying or preventing the consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions; provided, that any such sale, divestiture, license or other disposition referred to above may be conditioned upon any necessary consent, approval or authorization by BaFin and/or the FFSA of consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions or confirmation that such sale, divestiture, license or other disposition renders BaFin and/or FFSA approval unnecessary; provided further that, in the event (A) Parent fails in a timely manner to take any actions required to be taken under this Section 7.6(e)(iv) to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Law relating to any consent, approval, no-action letter or authorization by BaFin and/or the FFSA to enable the parties hereto to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions, or (B) the Company shall determine in good faith that it would be most expeditious to avoid or eliminate each and every such impediment for the Company, rather than the Parent, to take action, the Company may, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.1 or elsewhere in this Agreement, take any and all such actions described in this Section 7.6(e)(iv) to avoid or eliminate any such impediment to enable the Parties to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions so long as such actions shall not result in a Burdensome Condition; provided further that, beginning the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) days following the receipt of all Requisite Regulatory Approvals other than the approval of the FFSA and (ii) the sixtieth (60^th) day prior to the date that would otherwise be the Outside Date (after giving effect to two (2) extensions thereof pursuant to Section 9.2(a)), the steps required or permitted to be taken under this Section 7.6(e) to obtain the approval of the FFSA may result in a Burdensome Condition.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.6, Parent shall not be obligated to share any confidential or personally identifiable information with the Company in connection with any filing made under this Section 7.6(e), including by virtue of the Company attending any meeting or phone call with BaFin or FFSA, provided that such information may be shared with Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP as the Company’s legal advisor, one German counsel appointed by the Company (in the case of the BaFin filing) and one Finnish counsel appointed by the Company (in the case of the FFSA filing), in all circumstances for attorneys’ eyes only and not to be shared with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Further, the Company or such counsel shall be afforded prior review of materials to be submitted, or given the opportunity to participate in calls or meetings with BaFin and FFSA, only to the extent practicable; provided that Parent will provide such materials, or a summary of the content of such calls or meetings, to the Company or such counsel as soon as practicable.

In the event that the Company objects to any request submitted pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 7.8 and withholds information on the basis of the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii), the Company shall inform the Parent as to the general nature of what is being withheld and the Company and Parent shall cooperate in good faith to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure that does not suffer from any of the foregoing impediments, including through the use of commercially reasonable efforts to (A) obtain the required consent or waiver of any third party required to provide such information and (B) implement appropriate and mutually agreeable measures to permit the disclosure of such information in a manner to remove the basis for the objection. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.8 or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Parent nor any of its Representatives will be permitted to collect or analyze any environmental samples or perform any invasive environmental investigation of the type commonly referred to as a “Phase II” environmental investigation with respect to any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the access provisions of this Section 7.8. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company hereunder.

-47-

(b) To the extent that any of the information or material furnished pursuant to this Section 7.8 or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement may include material subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege concerning pending or threatened legal proceedings or governmental investigations, the parties understand and agree that they have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is their desire, intention and mutual understanding that the sharing of such material is not intended to, and shall not, waive or diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege. It is the intention of the Parties that all such information that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, this Agreement, and under the joint defense doctrine.

(c) No exchange of information or investigation by Parent or its Representatives shall affect or be deemed to affect, modify or waive the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement.

The initial press release with respect to the Transactions shall be a joint press release and thereafter the Company and Parent shall consult with each other, and provide meaningful opportunity for review and give due consideration to reasonable comments by the other Party, prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making planned public statements with respect to the Transactions and prior to making any filings with any third party or any Governmental Entity (including any national securities exchange) with respect thereto, except (i) as may be required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any national securities exchange or (ii) with respect to any Change of Recommendation made in accordance with this Agreement or Parent’s response thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.9, each of the Parties may make public statements in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors, business partners or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst conference calls, so long as any such statements are not inconsistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by Parent and the Company.

7.10 Employee Benefits.

(a) Parent agrees that each employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries at the Effective Time who continues to remain employed with the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately following the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) shall, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary of the Effective Time (or if earlier, the date of the Continuing Employee’s termination of employment with the Company or the applicable Subsidiary), be provided with (i) base salary or base wage that is no less favorable than the base salary or base wage provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) target annual cash incentive opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation) that are no less favorable than the target annual cash incentive opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation) provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) employee benefits (other than defined benefit pension, deferred compensation, severance, equity based, post-termination or retiree welfare benefits) that are

-48-

substantially comparable in the aggregate, to those provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than defined benefit pension, deferred compensation, severance, equity based, post-termination or retiree welfare benefits), and (iv) severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that the requirements of this sentence shall not apply to Continuing Employees who are covered by an agreement with a works council or like organization.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain the existing Company Benefit Plans that are health and welfare or retirement benefit plans or cause Continuing Employees to become eligible to participate in comparable benefit plans that are not Company Benefit Plans (“New Plans”), in each case in accordance with Sections 7.10(a) and 7.10(c). With respect to any New Plans, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause any pre-existing conditions or limitations and eligibility waiting periods under any New Plans providing health benefits in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs to be waived with respect to the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents to the extent waived or satisfied under the analogous Company Benefit Plan, (ii) in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs give each Continuing Employee credit for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs towards applicable deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits for medical expenses incurred prior to the Effective Time for which payment has been made under the Company Benefit Plans, and (iii) give each Continuing Employee service credit for such Continuing Employee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of vesting, benefit accrual (for purposes of vacation benefits only) and eligibility to participate under each applicable New Plan, as if such service had been performed with the Surviving Corporation, Parent or their relevant Affiliate, to the extent such service was credited for the same purpose under the analogous Company Benefit Plan, as applicable, except for benefit accrual under defined benefit pension plans or any purpose under any equity-based plan or arrangement entered into after the Closing Date other than the Replacement Deferred Cash Awards or to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits or compensation.

(c) Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor and assume all employee benefit obligations to current and former employees under the Company Benefit Plans set forth on Section 7.10(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter. The Parties agree that the consummation of the Transactions and the occurrence of the Effective Time shall constitute a “change in control”, “change of control” or any term of similar import for purposes of the Company Benefit Plans.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Compensation Committee shall in its discretion determine allocations in respect of the Company’s annual incentive cash bonus plans for the 2018 performance year (the “2018 Annual Bonus Plan”) among participants of such plan based on “target” achievement of all performance goals. Following the Effective Time, Parent shall (or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) cause such bonuses under the 2018 Bonus Plans to be paid in accordance with the Company Compensation Committee’s determinations. Such payments shall be made in a manner consistent with the Company’s historical timing for making bonus payments under its annual bonus plans, but no later than December 31, 2018. Payment of bonuses earned under the 2018 Bonus Plans in accordance with

-49-

this Section 7.10(d) shall be conditioned upon each applicable Continuing Employee’s continued employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries through the payment date; provided, that if a Continuing Employee undergoes a Qualifying Termination between the Effective Time and such payment date, such Continuing Employee shall be paid his or her bonus under the 2018 Annual Bonus Plan in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.10(d). “Qualifying Termination” has the meaning set forth in Section 7.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to (i) be treated as an establishment, modification or amendment of any particular Company Benefit Plan or any other benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement, (ii) prevent Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates from amending or terminating any of their benefit or compensation plans, programs, policies, practices, agreements or arrangements or, after the Effective Time, any Company Benefit Plan in accordance with their terms, (iii) prevent Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates, after the Effective Time, from modifying or terminating (for any or no reason) the employment or service, or any particular term or condition of employment or service, of any Continuing Employee or any other Person or (iv) create any rights in any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment or benefits that may be provided to any Continuing Employee by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates or under any benefit plan which Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates may maintain, or to create any rights or remedies (including any third-party beneficiary rights, other than as set forth in Section 7.12) in any Person for any purpose.

(f) To the extent reasonably practicable, prior to making any broad-based written communications to the directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pertaining to compensation or benefit matters that are affected by the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall provide Parent with a copy of the intended communication, Parent shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on the communication, and the Company shall consider any such comments in good faith.

7.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whether or not the Merger is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Transactions, including all fees and expenses of its Representatives, shall be paid by the Party incurring such expense.

7.12 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) For a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law and the Company’s Organizational Documents in effect as of the date of this Agreement, each present and former (determined as of the Effective Time) director and officer of the Company, in each case, when acting in such capacity or in serving as a director, officer, member, trustee, Representative or fiduciary of another entity or enterprise, including a Company Benefit Plan, at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable

-50-

attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to any Proceeding, in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, including in connection with (i) the Transactions, and (ii) actions to enforce this provision or any other indemnification or advancement right of any Indemnified Party, and Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted to do so under applicable Law and the Company’s Organizational Documents in effect as of the date of this Agreement; provided that any Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking in customary form to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication that such Person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall and, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay the premium for “tail” insurance policies (providing only for the Side A coverage where the existing policies also include Side B coverage for the Company) for the extension of (i) the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies, and (ii) the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies, in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of six years from and after the Effective Time (the “Tail Period”) from one or more insurance carriers with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s insurance carrier as of the date of this Agreement with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable to the insureds as the Company’s existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions). If the Company and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for the Tail Period the D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable to the insureds as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for the Tail Period with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the annual premium of the D&O Insurance during the Tail Period exceed 300 percent of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such purpose; and provided, further, that if the cost of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(c) During the Tail Period, all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto now existing in favor of any Indemnified Party as provided in the Organizational Documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries or any indemnification agreement between such Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Transactions unchanged and shall not be amended, restated, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such Indemnified Party.

-51-

(d) If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.12.

(e) The rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 7.12 are in addition to any rights such Indemnified Parties may have under the Organizational Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or under any applicable Contracts or Laws, and nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees (it being understood that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.12 is not prior to or in substitution of any such claims under such policies).

(f) This Section 7.12 is intended to be for the benefit of, and from and after the Effective Time shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, who shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.12.

7.13 Financing and Financing Cooperation.

(a) No Amendments to Financing Commitment Letters. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of Parent and Merger Sub will not (without the prior written consent of the Company) permit any amendment or modification (including an amendment or modification effected by way of side letter) to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy pursuant to, the Financing Commitment Letters if such amendment, modification or waiver would or could reasonably be expected to, (i) reduce either the aggregate amount of or the net proceeds to Parent from the Debt Financing (unless the Equity Financing is increased by an equivalent amount or the representations in Section 6.7(d) (as though made at the time of the effectuation of such amendment, modification, supplement or replacement) shall remain true and correct after taking into account such reduction) or reduce the aggregate amount of the Equity Financing, (ii) impose new or additional conditions precedent (except in connection with any “flex” provisions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter made available to the Company as of the date of this Agreement) to the funding of the Financing, in a manner that would, or could reasonably be expected to (A) delay or prevent the consummation of the Merger, or (B) make the timely funding of the Financing less likely to occur in any respect, or (iii) adversely impact the ability of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company (solely with respect to the Equity Commitment Letter), to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Financing Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements with respect thereto (provided that, each of Parent and Merger Sub may, without the prior written consent of the Company, amend or modify the Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this

Agreement).

(b) Equity Financing. Parent shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions and do (or cause to be done) all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Equity Financing, including by (i) maintaining in effect the Equity Commitment Letter, (ii) complying with its obligations under the Equity Commitment Letter, (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent or Merger Sub in such Equity Commitment Letter that are within its control, if any, (iv) enforcing its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter, including through the initiation of legal proceedings against the Equity Financing Source if and to the extent necessary to obtain the Equity Financing contemplated thereby and (v) consummating the Equity Financing at or prior to Closing, including by causing the Equity Financing Source to fund the Equity Financing at the Closing, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Equity Commitment Letter.

(c) Debt Financing and Alternative Debt Financing. Parent shall use (or cause Merger Sub to use) its reasonable best efforts to arrange the Debt Financing and obtain the financing contemplated thereby as promptly as reasonably practicable on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, the full exercise of any flex provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, including using its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, subject to modifications not prohibited hereunder, (ii) comply with its obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter, (iii) negotiate, execute and deliver definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, subject to modifications not prohibited hereunder, (iv) satisfy on a timely basis (or obtain a waiver to) all conditions to funding that are applicable to Parent and Merger Sub in the Debt Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, (v) enforce its rights pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter, and (vi) consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, including by using its reasonable best efforts to cause the Debt Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing at the Closing.

-53-

exhibits, schedules, annexes, supplements, term sheets and other agreements, the “New Debt Commitment Letters”), which New Debt Commitment Letters will replace the existing Debt Commitment Letter in whole or in part. Parent shall promptly provide the Company with a copy of any New Debt Commitment Letters (except that the fee amounts, pricing caps, other economic terms and “market flex” provisions contained in any fee letters may be redacted so long as no redaction covers terms that would adversely affect the amount, conditionality, availability or termination of the Alternative Debt Financing). In the event that any New Debt Commitment Letters are obtained, (A) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing Commitment Letters” or the “Debt Commitment Letter” will be deemed to include the Debt Commitment Letter to the extent not superseded by a New Debt Commitment Letter at the time in question and any New Debt Commitment Letters to the extent then in effect, and (B) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing” or the “Debt Financing” means the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters as modified pursuant to the foregoing.

(d) Information. Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing and shall provide the Company with copies of all executed definitive agreements and all exhibits thereto related to the Financing if requested.

(e) Financing Cooperation.

The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ trademarks, service marks or

-55-

logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such trademarks, service marks or logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective intellectual property rights. At least one (1) Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company will deliver to Parent a customary payoff letter or letters executed by the lenders of the Credit Agreement, which letter will set forth (a) the total amount required to be paid at the Effective Time to satisfy in full the repayment of all Indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement and, if any, all prepayment penalties, premiums and breakage costs that become payable upon such repayment and any other fees or expenses outstanding thereunder (the “Payoff Amount“), (b) the lenders’ obligation to release all liens and other security securing the Credit Agreement in due course and at Parent’s expense after receiving the Payoff Amount, and (c) wire transfer instructions for paying the Payoff Amount.

Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that Section 7.13 shall not create any independent conditions to Closing.

7.14 Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Statute is or may become applicable to the Transactions, each of Parent and the Company and the Parent Board and the Company Board, respectively, shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the Transactions.

Thereafter, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation and (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation.

provided, however, that no failure to give such notification shall separately constitute a failure of any condition in Article VIII or a basis to terminate this Agreement unless the underlying fact, event or circumstance would independently result in such failure or provide such basis, and no notification given by any party pursuant to this Section 7.18 shall (A) limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or conditions contained in this Agreement, (B) otherwise prejudice in any way the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement, (C) be deemed to affect or modify Parent’s reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or (D) be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Letter or prevent or cure any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or breach of covenant by the Company.

In no event will the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Parent’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded or to complete the Merger unless the Debt Financing has been funded in full or will be funded in full at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing.

If any director of the Corporation who is not, and has not previously been, an employee of the Corporation (each such director, a “Non-Employee Director”), acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be an investment or business opportunity or prospective economic or competitive advantage in which the Corporation could have an interest or expectancy (a “Competitive Opportunity”), or otherwise is then exploiting any Competitive Opportunity, the Corporation will have no interest in such Competitive Opportunity and no expectation that such Competitive Opportunity be offered to it, any such interest or expectation being hereby renounced so that each Non-Employee Director shall (i) have no duty to communicate or present such Competitive Opportunity to the Corporation and (ii) have the right to hold any such Competitive Opportunity for such Non-Employee Director’s (and its agents’, partners’ or affiliates’) own account and benefit, or to recommend, assign or otherwise transfer or deal in such Competitive Opportunity to or with persons or entities other than the Corporation or any affiliate of the Corporation. No amendment or repeal of this Article Eleven shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any Non-Employee Director for or with respect to any opportunities of which such Non-Employee Director becomes aware prior to such amendment or repeal.

ARTICLE TWELVE

To the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, a director of the Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Article Twelve shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation that exists at the time of such amendment, modification or repeal. The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, indemnify and upon request shall advance expenses to any person who is involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) or is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding or claim, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was or has agreed to be a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent (or in any other capacity while so serving) of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (an “indemnitee”), including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes or penalties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time (“ERISA”), and amounts paid in settlement incurred or suffered in connection with the investigation, preparation to defend or defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim, and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require the Corporation to indemnify or advance expenses to any person in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or claim initiated by or on behalf of such person or any counterclaim against the Corporation initiated by or on behalf of such person. Such indemnification shall not be exclusive of other indemnification rights arising under any by-law, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of

Exhibit A-3

such person. Any person seeking indemnification under this Article Twelve shall be deemed to have met the standard of conduct required for such indemnification unless the contrary shall be established. The Corporation hereby acknowledges that certain indemnitees affiliated with institutional investors may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by such institutional investors or certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Institutional Indemnitors”). The Corporation hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Institutional Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the indemnitee are secondary), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the indemnitee in accordance with this Article Twelve without regard to any rights the indemnitee may have against the Institutional Indemnitors and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Institutional Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Institutional Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Institutional Indemnitors on behalf of the indemnitee with respect to any claim for which the indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the foregoing and the Institutional Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the indemnitee against the Corporation. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs and charges) incurred by an indemnitee in defending a proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article Twelve. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article Twelve shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing in this Article Twelve, any present and former (determined as of the Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 9, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Corporation, Vertex Holdco LLC and Vertex Merger Sub LLC) director or officer of the Corporation shall be provided with the same rights to indemnification (including any rights to the advancement of expenses) permitted under applicable law and the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time. If this Article Twelve or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each person entitled to indemnification under the first paragraph of this Article Twelve as to all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person and for which indemnification is available to such person pursuant to this Article Twelve to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article Twelve that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.
