(a) Each share of the Company’s common stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(d) and Dissenting Shares) shall at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive $10.00 in cash without any interest thereon (the “Merger Consideration”).

-12-

(b) Each Dissenting Share shall at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, subject to any rights the holder thereof may have under
Section 3.3.

(c) Each share of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of the common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Any shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company or owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent shall, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(e) At the Effective Time, each share of Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and the holders immediately prior to the Effective Time of shares of outstanding Common Stock not represented by certificates (“Book-Entry Shares”) and the holders of certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of outstanding Common Stock (the “Certificates”) shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Common Stock other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Shares or Certificates in accordance with Section 3.2, the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, for each such share of Common Stock held by them.

(f) If at any time between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall occur as a result of a reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, the amount of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a) shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change; provided that nothing in this Section 3.1(f) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to the Common Stock that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 3.2 Exchange of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, Parent shall deliver, in trust, to a paying agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Common Stock at the Effective Time, sufficient funds for timely payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Consideration Fund”) to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.2 in respect of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares, excluding the Dissenting Shares. In the event the Consideration Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate amount of Merger Consideration payable under Section 3.1, Parent shall promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, additional funds to the Paying Agent in an amount that is equal to the deficiency required to make such payments.

-13-

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares whose shares were converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1 (i) a letter of transmittal that shall specify that delivery of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, to the Paying Agent and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration, the form and substance of which letter of transmittal and instructions shall be substantially in the form as reasonably agreed to by the Company and Parent and prepared prior to the Closing. Upon surrender of a Book-Entry Share or a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and with such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, subject to any required withholding of Taxes, the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article III. No interest will be paid or accrued on the Merger Consideration payable to holders of Book-Entry Shares or Certificates. If any Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than a Person in whose name the Book-Entry Share or Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, in the sole discretion of the Paying Agent, and that the Person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Paying Agent any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Book-Entry Share or Certificate surrendered, or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no holder of Book-Entry Shares shall be required to deliver a Certificate with respect to its Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) The Consideration Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that any such investments shall be in money market mutual or similar funds having assets in excess of $10 billion. Earnings on the Consideration Fund shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and the Surviving Corporation and shall be paid to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs. No investment or loss of the Consideration Fund shall relieve Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent from promptly making the payments required by this Article III (or relieve Parent from fulfilling the Other Payment Obligations).

(d) Notwithstanding Section 3.2(b), at and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, except as otherwise provided by Law.

-14-

(e) Any portion of the Consideration Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains unclaimed by the former stockholders of the Company one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Surviving Corporation. Any holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect to such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall thereafter look only to Surviving Corporation, and Surviving Corporation shall remain liable, for payment of the Merger Consideration in respect thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding Section 3.2(e), neither the Paying Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person in respect of cash from the Consideration Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect thereof would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Surviving Corporation, and any holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share who has not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect thereto shall thereafter look only to Surviving Corporation for payment of such holder’s claim for Merger Consideration in respect thereof.

(g) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact (such affidavit shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Paying Agent) by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and (if required by Parent) providing a customary indemnity and bond, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which such Person is entitled in respect of such Certificate pursuant to this Article III.

(h) Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to a Person pursuant to this Agreement any amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of any such payment under applicable Tax Law and with respect to any payment pursuant to Section 3.4 any applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the applicable deduction and withholding was made.

Section 3.3 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement other than Section 3.3(b) to the contrary, any shares of Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a stockholder who is entitled to demand and properly demands (and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such demand) appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration unless and until such stockholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such stockholder’s right to obtain payment of the fair value of such stockholder’s Dissenting Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, but shall instead be entitled only to such rights to receive payment with respect to such Dissenting Shares as may be granted to such stockholder under Section 262 of the DGCL.

-15-

(b) The Company shall promptly provide any written notices of dissent or demands for appraisal of any shares of Common Stock to Parent, and Parent shall have the right to participate in any negotiations and proceedings with respect to each such dissent or demand. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such dissent or demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(c) If any stockholder who holds Dissenting Shares effectively withdraws or loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such stockholder’s right to obtain payment of the fair value of such stockholder’s Dissenting Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such effective withdrawal or loss, such stockholder’s shares of Common Stock shall no longer be Dissenting Shares and shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in Section 3.1(a), without interest, upon compliance with the exchange procedures set forth in Section 3.2.

Section 3.4 Treatment of Equity Awards; Company Equity Plans.

(a) Company Options. Each option to purchase Common Stock under a Company Equity Plan (an “Option”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time and, if not exercised prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled at the Effective Time, and the holder of such Option will, in full settlement of such Option, be entitled to receive from Parent an amount, subject to any required withholding of Taxes and without interest, in cash equal to the product of (x) the Merger Consideration less the exercise price per share of such Option multiplied by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Option (such product, the “Option Consideration”); provided, however, that if the per share exercise price payable with respect to an Option exceeds the Merger Consideration (an “Underwater Option”), then such Underwater Option shall be cancelled without payment of any consideration with respect thereto.

(b) Company Stock-Based Awards. Each right of any kind, contingent or accrued, to receive shares of Common Stock or benefits measured by the value of a number of shares of Common Stock or the performance of the Company, and each award of any kind consisting of shares of Common Stock, granted or payable under any of the Company Equity Plans, including restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units or other stock-based awards (each, a “Company Stock-Based Award”), that is outstanding and, with respect to performance share units, is deemed payable, immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall become fully vested and payable, as applicable, and all applicable forfeiture or other restrictions thereon shall lapse, immediately prior to the Effective Time, and the holder of such Company Stock-Based Award will, in full settlement thereof, be entitled to receive from Parent an amount, subject to any required withholding of Taxes and without interest, in cash equal to the product of (x) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Stock-Based Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (such product, the “Stock-Based Award Consideration”).

(c) Employee Stock Purchase Plan. With respect to the 2008 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), the Company shall (i) continue to operate the ESPP in accordance with its material terms during the current “Offering Period” (as defined in the ESPP) in progress as of the date hereof, (ii) suspend the commencement of any future “Offering Period” (as defined in the ESPP) after the date of this Agreement, and (iii) terminate the ESPP as of the Effective Time.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt such resolutions and take such other actions as may be necessary or desirable to effect the provisions of this Section 3.4 and to terminate all of the Company Equity Plans as of the Effective Time. The Company shall also amend, as of the Effective Time, the provisions of any other Benefit Plan providing for the issuance, transfer or grant of any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Equity Rights to provide no continuing rights to acquire, hold, transfer or grant any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Equity Rights. Except as otherwise contemplated herein, any such then outstanding rights or other Equity Rights shall be canceled immediately prior to the Effective Time without any payment therefor, and the Company shall take all steps to ensure that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries is or will be bound by any options, warrants, rights or agreements which would entitle any Person, other than Parent or its Affiliates, to own any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Equity Rights or to receive any payment in respect of the foregoing.

(e) Payment for Equity Awards. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay through its payroll system or otherwise to each holder of Options or Company Stock-Based Awards, the Option Consideration or Stock-Based Award Consideration, respectively, subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.4 as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time).

As of their respective dates, or, if amended or superseded by information in a subsequent filing or submission, as of the date of the last such amendment or superseding filing prior to the date of this Agreement, each of the Company SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as the case may be and in each case as in effect on the date so filed or furnished.

(c) The Company has established and maintains a system of “internal controls over financial reporting” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that is sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

(d) The Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that all material information (both financial and non-financial) required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company required under the Exchange Act with respect to such reports.

Subject to Section 6.3(b), promptly after the date hereof the Company shall cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, knowing facilitation, discussion or negotiation with any Persons conducted theretofore by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Company Representatives with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

-41-

Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach by the Company of Section 6.3(a), this Section 6.3(b) or Section 6.3(c)), (A) furnish information (including non-public information) with respect to it and its Subsidiaries to any Person making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which shall not be less restrictive to the other party than the Confidentiality Agreement is to Parent, and (B) engage or participate in discussions and negotiations regarding such Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that prior to taking any action described in the foregoing clauses (A) or (B), (x) the Company Board shall have also determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, (y) the Company shall have provided at least 24 hours prior notice to the Parent that it intends to take any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) and (z) the Company shall have complied in all material respects with all of its obligations in Section 6.3(a), this Section 6.3(b) and Section 6.3(c). From and after the date hereof, if the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal, it shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours of receipt thereof) (i) advise Parent in writing of such Acquisition Proposal and all of the material terms and conditions thereof and shall disclose the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal and (ii) keep Parent promptly and reasonably informed with respect to the status of any such Acquisition Proposal and any material changes thereto, including providing Parent copies of all material draft agreements with respect thereto, in each case within 24 hours of receipt by the Company, Subsidiaries or its Company Representatives. In connection with furnishing or otherwise permitting the transmittal of any material non-public information to any Person pursuant to this Section 6.3(b), the Company shall (as a condition to furnishing or otherwise permitting the transmittal of such non-public information to such Person) concurrently furnish such non-public information to Parent to the extent it has not been previously furnished or made available by the Company to Parent.

(c) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.3, neither the Company Board, nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation (a “Change of Recommendation”), (ii) approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) cause or permit the Company to enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement or understanding (an “Acquisition Agreement”) related to any Acquisition Proposal, other than any Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into pursuant to Section 6.3(b), (iv) fail to publicly recommend against any Acquisition Proposal or fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation within two Business Days after request by Parent or make any public statement that conflicts with the Company Recommendation, or (v) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement; provided, however, that if the Board effects a Change of Recommendation pursuant to Section 6.3(d), then the requirements set forth in the foregoing clauses (ii)-(v) of this Section 6.3(c) shall not apply with respect to such Superior Proposal after such Change of Recommendation.

(d) Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting, if the Company receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from any Person that has not been withdrawn and that the Company Board determines in good faith is a Superior Proposal, then (x) the Company Board may effect a Change of Recommendation with respect to such Superior

-42-

Proposal and (if desired) (y) the Company may terminate this Agreement to enter into an Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal (subject to Article VIII), but only if: (1) the Company has not materially breached its obligations under
Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(b),and Section 6.3(c), (2) the Company Board shall have determined, after good faith consultation with its legal counsel, that its failure to effect a Change of Recommendation or to enter into such Acquisition Agreement would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, (3) the Company shall have notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect a Change of Recommendation with respect to a Superior Proposal or that it intends to enter into an Acquisition Agreement to effect such Superior Proposal (a “Proposal Notice”), with such notice specifying, the party making the Superior Proposal, a description of the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, including a copy of the Acquisition Agreement and all other agreements and material documents related thereto, and (4) the Company shall have allowed Parent three (3) Business Days following receipt of the Proposal Notice to submit a proposal (a “Subsequent Parent Proposal”) that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and legal counsel, to cause the offer previously constituting a Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal and during such three Business Day period the Company and its Company Representatives shall meet with the Parent and its Representatives and negotiate in good faith during such period with respect to a Subsequent Parent Proposal (provided that if Parent makes a Subsequent Parent Proposal and there is subsequently any material change to the financial or other material terms of the Superior Proposal prior to the Company’s effecting a Change of Recommendation or terminating this Agreement, such proposal shall be considered a new Superior Proposal for purposes of this Section 6.3(d) and the Company shall comply with its obligations under this Section 6.3(d) with respect to such new Superior Proposal, including providing Parent a new Proposal Notice and providing Parent with a period of two (2) Business Days after the receipt of such new Proposal Notice to make another Subsequent Parent Proposal, which will be otherwise subject to the provisions of this Section 6.3(d)). Except immediately prior to the entry into an Acquisition Agreement in compliance with the terms of this Section 6.3 and Section 8.1(c)(ii) or as otherwise required by Section 6.12, the Company shall not waive the Delaware Takeover Statue or the Washington Takeover Statute.

(e) Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from taking and disclosing to the Company’s stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, or other applicable Law, if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that failure to disclose such position would constitute a violation of applicable Law; provided that the Company shall to the extent practicable provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to comment on and review any such disclosure. Provided the Company Board publicly reaffirms its approval and recommendation of this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days after a request by Parent to do so, no such disclosure of a position shall constitute a Change of Recommendation for the purposes of this Section 6.3. In addition, it is understood and agreed that, for purposes of this Section 6.3, a factually accurate public statement by the Company that describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal and the operation of Section 6.3 of the Agreement with respect thereto, and contains “stop-look-and-listen” or similar communication shall not constitute a Change of Recommendation.

-43-

(f) For purposes of this Section 6.3 and all of the defined terms in this Section 6.3, the term “Company Board” shall be deemed to mean the Company Board and/or the Special Committee, as applicable.

Section 6.4 Employee Benefits.

(a) As of the Effective Time, and for a period through December 31, 2013, Parent agrees to provide or cause its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation) to provide each of the employees of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation) who were employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Continuing Employees”) with base salary or wage rates, incentive compensation opportunity and other cash compensation that, in the aggregate, are not less than those in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time and with employee benefits and perquisites (including retirement, health and life insurance benefits but excluding benefits under any defined benefit plans, equity compensation plans, or any other plan or agreement terminated pursuant to, or in connection with, this Agreement) that, in the aggregate, are no less favorable to each Continuing Employee (and such Continuing Employee’s spouse and dependents) than those in effect under Benefit Plans for such Continuing Employee (and his or her spouse and dependents) immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) As of the Effective Time, except as to those severance arrangements described in Section 6.4(c), Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) to, honor, pay, perform and satisfy any and all contractual liabilities arising under the terms of all incentive, bonus, individual benefit, employment, employment termination, severance and other compensation agreements, plans and arrangements, including the Company’s change-in-control and general severance and retention plans, in each case existing immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement and all of which are identified on Section 6.4(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, that are between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any current or former officer, director or employee thereof or for the benefit of any such current or former officer, director or employee.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall terminate, effective no later than the Effective Time, (i) each of the nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements listed on Section 6.4(c)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule; provided, however, that distributions on account of such termination need not occur until after the Effective Time; and provided further that the Company shall not be required to terminate any such plans or programs or distribute payments in connection with any such termination if such termination or payment would reasonably be expected to result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code or any other applicable Law; and (ii) each of the severance programs listed in Section 6.4(c)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule.

(d) On and after the Closing Date, no employee shall be entitled to severance except on the basis of the plans and policies generally applicable to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries (taking into account the recognition of prior service if relevant which is required by Section 6.4(e) below); provided, however, that for a period of twelve (12) months following the Effective Time (x) all Continuing Employees in the United States shall be

-44-

treated as “Eligible Employees” under the applicable severance plans of Parent or its Subsidiaries, (y) the amount of severance of any such Eligible Employee who receives severance benefits under the applicable plan or policy of Parent and its Subsidiaries will be in the same amount as the total cash payments such Eligible Employee would have received under the applicable Company severance plan as such plan existed immediately prior to the Effective Time and (z) any such Eligible Employee who receives severance benefits will be provided with outplacement assistance substantially similar to that which would have been provided under the applicable severance plan of Company, as such plan existed immediately prior to the Effective Time. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, severance for Continuing Employees in the United States will be provided only on and subject to the conditions of the applicable plan or policy of Parent and its Subsidiaries. This Section 6.4(d) shall not apply in the case of any employee covered by or entitled to the benefits of any severance arrangement described in Section 6.4(b) which is not otherwise to be terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 6.4(c).

(e) Parent shall treat, and shall cause each benefit plan, program, practice, policy and arrangement maintained by Parent or its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) following the Effective Time and in which any of the Continuing Employees participate or are eligible to participate (the “Parent Plans”) to treat, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting, and the amount of severance, vacation, sick leave and other paid time off benefits (but not for purposes of benefit accruals under any other Parent Plans), and for purposes of paying, providing or satisfying when due all vacation, sick pay and other paid time off benefits accrued but unused as of the Effective Time, all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries (or predecessor employers to the extent the Company, any Subsidiary or any Benefit Plan provides past service credit) as service with Parent and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, the Surviving Corporation). Parent shall cause each Parent Plan that is a welfare benefit plan, within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA, (i) to waive any and all eligibility waiting periods, evidence of insurability requirements, pre-existing condition limitations and other exclusions and limitations with respect to the Continuing Employees and their spouses and dependents to the extent waived, satisfied or not included under the analogous Benefit Plan, and (ii) to recognize for each Continuing Employee for purposes of applying annual deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums under such Parent Plan any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket expenses paid by the Continuing Employee and his or her spouse and dependents under the analogous Benefit Plan during the plan year of such Benefit Plan in which occurs the later of the Effective Time and the date on which the Continuing Employee begins participating in such Parent Plan.

(f) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company in consultation with Parent shall comply with all obligations under applicable Law to provide information to any foreign employees or their representatives and otherwise comply with all obligations under applicable Law to inform or consult trade unions, works councils or other employee representative bodies in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement.

(g) Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any representative of any such employee, or any Governmental Entity or other third party any rights, claims, benefits, causes of actions or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any period

-45-

or terms of employment, of any nature whatsoever, (ii) except with respect to the obligations of Parent expressly set forth in Section 6.4(b) and Section 6.4(d), be interpreted to prevent or restrict Parent or the Surviving Corporation or their Affiliates from modifying or terminating the employment or terms of employment of any Continuing Employee, including the amendment or termination of any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement, after the Effective Time or (iii) be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement.

Section 6.5 Publicity. The initial press release by each of Parent and the Company with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company. Neither the Company nor Parent (nor any of their respective Affiliates) shall issue any other press release or make any other public announcement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior agreement of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as may be required by Law or by any listing agreement with a national securities exchange, in which case the party proposing to issue such press release or make such public announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult in good faith with the other party before making any such public announcement; provided, however, that neither the Company nor Parent will be required to obtain the prior agreement of or consult with the other party in connection with any such press release or public announcement (a) if the Company Board has effected a Change of Recommendation or in connection with any such press release or public announcement pursuant to Section 6.3(d) or (b) if the information and other content contained therein has been previously included in any press release or public announcement after compliance with the terms of this Section 6.5.

Section 6.6 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time until the six year anniversary of the Closing, the Surviving Corporation shall (and if the Surviving Corporation for any reason cannot, the Parent shall) indemnify and hold harmless the individuals who at any time prior to the Effective Time were directors or officers of the Company or any of its present or former Subsidiaries or corporate parents (the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, losses, claims, settlements, damages or liabilities in connection with actions or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and advance expenses with respect thereto, in each case as provided, as applicable, in the certificates of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and in any indemnification agreements between the Company and any Indemnified Party entered into prior to the date hereof and a copy of which has been provided to Parent. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company as amended, restated and in effect on the date of this Agreement, and any indemnification agreements between the Company and any Indemnified Party shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and such provisions and agreements shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the Indemnified Parties, unless such modification is required by Law.

-46-

(b) Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect for not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time the policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof (or such other insurance policy with the same coverage and amounts with terms and conditions that are not less advantageous than the Company’s existing policies) for the Indemnified Parties and any other employees, agents or other individuals otherwise covered by such insurance policies prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Insured Parties”) with respect to matters occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that in lieu of the purchase of such insurance by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, the Company may at its option prior to the Effective Time purchase a six-year run-off program for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance providing at least the same coverage with respect to matters occurring at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, further that in no event shall Parent be required to pay annually in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance prior to the date hereof.

(c) This Section 6.6 is intended to benefit the Insured Parties and the Indemnified Parties, shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, and shall be enforceable by each Indemnified Party and Insured Party and his or her heirs and representatives. Parent hereby guarantees the payment and performance by the Surviving Corporation of the indemnification and other obligations pursuant to this Section 6.6 and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any action (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) with respect to which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification is instituted against any Indemnified Party on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, then the provisions of this Section 6.6 shall continue in full force and effect until the final disposition of such action.

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

The Company shall give Parent notice of any comments on the Proxy Statement received from the SEC or other communications from the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, and the Company will provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any response to such comments or any amendment to the Proxy Statement, and, subject to such review and comment by Parent, shall reasonably promptly respond to SEC comments, if any. If (i) at any time prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting, any event should occur relating to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries that should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, the Company shall promptly inform Parent, and (ii) if at any time prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting, any event should occur relating to Parent or Merger Sub that should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, Parent will promptly inform the Company, and in the case of (i) or (ii) the Company and Parent, will, upon learning of such event, promptly prepare, and the Company shall file with the SEC and, if required, mail such amendment or supplement to the Company’s stockholders; provided, prior to such filing, the Company and Parent shall consult with each other with respect to such amendment or supplement.

(i) upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall be untrue, in any case such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) would not be satisfied; provided, however, that if such breach or untruthfulness is capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date by the Company through the exercise of its reasonable best efforts and the Company continues to exercise such reasonable best efforts, Parent may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d)(i) on account of such breach or untruthfulness unless such breach or untruthfulness remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days commencing on the date that Parent gives notice to the Company of such breach or untruthfulness; provided further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d)(i) shall not be available to Parent if it or Merger Sub has breached any of its representations and warranties or failed to perform its obligations under or in connection with this Agreement that would result in any closing condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) and Section 7.3(b) not being satisfied; or

(ii) at any time prior to the vote of the Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting with respect to the Merger, if (A) the Company Board or any committee thereof shall have effected a Change of Recommendation, (B) the Company’s board of directors publicly approves, endorses or recommends to the Company’s stockholders an Acquisition Proposal or (C) the Company enters into an Acquisition Agreement related to an Acquisition Proposal, other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party or parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void (other than this Section 8.2, Article IX and the last sentence of Section 6.2), and there shall be no liability on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Representatives, agents or advisors other than, with respect to Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, the obligations pursuant to this Section 8.2, Article IX, and the last sentence of Section 6.2. Nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall relieve Parent, Merger Sub or the Company from liability for fraud or willful breach of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b) In the event that:

(i)(A) a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal shall have been made or a Person shall have publicly announced an Acquisition Proposal or intention to make an Acquisition Proposal prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting (each, an “Outstanding Proposal”), (B) following the making of such Outstanding Proposal, this Agreement is terminated (i) by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i) (unless the primary reason for the failure of the Merger to occur on or prior to the Outside Date was due to the failure of the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b) due to an Injunction related to the HSR Act or the competition, antitrust or investment Laws of the United Kingdom or other jurisdictions (other than the United States) or Section 7.1(c) to be satisfied on or prior to the Outside Date) or (ii) by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(iii), and (C) prior to or within twelve (12) months following the date this Agreement is so terminated, the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or

-55-

consummates, any Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that for purposes of clause (C) of this Section 8.2(b)(i), the references to “fifteen percent (15%)” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%)”;

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii); or

(iii) this agreement is terminated by Parent (A) pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii) or (B) pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) due to a breach of Section 6.3(c);

then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent the Termination Fee. Any Termination Fee required to be paid to Parent pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) shall be paid by the Company substantially concurrently with the earlier of entering into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or the consummation of an Acquisition Proposal. Any fee required to be paid to Parent pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(ii) shall be paid by the Company substantially concurrently with termination of this Agreement. Any fee required to be paid to Parent pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(iii) shall be paid by the Company within three (3) Business Days after such termination. “Termination Fee” shall mean $24,000,000 less any amounts previously paid to Parent by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 8.2(e). The payment of any Termination Fee shall be by wire transfer of same day funds to an account designated by Parent.

(c) In the event that (i) this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent (A) pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii) due to an Injunction related to the HSR Act or the competition, antitrust or investment Laws of the United Kingdom or other jurisdictions (other than the United States) or (B) pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i), and (ii) the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b) (other than with respect to an Injunction related to the HSR Act or the competition, antitrust or investment Laws of the United Kingdom or other jurisdictions (other than the United States)) and Section 7.2 are satisfied as of the date of such termination (treating such date of termination as the Closing Date for purposes of determining whether such conditions are satisfied), then the Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company the Parent Termination Fee; Any Parent Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.2(c) shall be paid to the Company, in the case of termination of this Agreement by Parent, substantially concurrently with such termination of this Agreement and, in the case of such termination of this Agreement by the Company, within three (3) Business Days after such termination. “Parent Termination Fee” shall mean $24,000,000. The payment of any Parent Termination Fee shall be by wire transfer of same day funds to an account designated by the Company.

(d) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in Section 8.2(b) and 8.2(c) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that without these agreements, the other parties would not enter into this Agreement, and that the Termination Fee and the Parent Termination Fee are not penalties but rather constitute liquidated

-56-

damages for losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Company or Parent and Merger Sub, as applicable, in connection with this Agreement and the termination thereof, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(e) In the event this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(iii) or Section 8.1(d)(i), then the Company shall pay Parent by wire transfer of same day funds all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Parent, Merger Sub and their Representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within two (2) Business Days following delivery by Parent of reasonable documentation of such fees and expenses; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay more than $1,500,000 pursuant to this Section 8.2(e).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Section 9.2) but subject to the last sentence of Section 8.2(a), (x) each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that the Termination Fee or fees and expenses shall become payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b) or (e) and Parent shall receive payment as required by Section 8.2(b) or (e), the right to receive the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b) or such fees and expenses pursuant to Section 8.2(e), as applicable, shall constitute each of Parent’s, Merger Sub’s, and each of their Affiliates’ and Representatives, sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement (provided that if Parent receives payment of fees and expenses pursuant to Section 8.2(e) it shall retain the right to receive a Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) in accordance with the terms thereof) and (y) the Company acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that the Parent Termination Fee shall become payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c) and the Company shall receive payment as required by Section 8.2(c), the right to receive the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(c) shall constitute the Company’s and each of its Affiliates’ and Company Representatives’, sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any payment by the Company under Section 8.2(b) or by the Parent under Section 8.2(c), shall be payable only once with respect to such section, even though such payment may be payable under one or more provisions of such section.

Section 9.7 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, void, unenforceable or against regulatory policy, the parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify

-59-

Section 9.10 Specific Performance. Other than as specifically described in Section 8.2, each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, each nonbreaching party would be irreparably and immediately harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto (a) will waive, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and (b) shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to seek an injunction or injunctions or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to seek to compel specific performance of this Agreement in any action instituted hereunder without bond or other security being required.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 9.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF PARENT, MERGER SUB AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT, MERGER SUB OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
