(a) Terms and Conditions of the Offer. So long as this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Article IX, promptly following the date of this Agreement, Merger Sub will

(and Parent will cause Merger Sub to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) the Offer to purchase all shares of Company Common Stock (it being understood that the Parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to commence the Offer within 10 Business Days after the date of this Agreement). In the Offer, each share of Company Common Stock that is accepted by Merger Sub in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer will be exchanged for the right to receive in cash an amount equal to $2.60, without interest thereon (the “Per Share Price”) and subject to any deduction or withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law. The Offer will be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that (A) is disseminated to all of the Company Stockholders as and to the extent required by the Exchange Act and (B) contains the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The obligations of Merger Sub to accept for payment, and pay for, any shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered pursuant to the Offer are subject only to the satisfaction or waiver by Parent or Merger Sub (to the extent permitted under this Agreement) of:

(i) the condition that, prior to the expiration of the Offer, there be validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Offer a number of shares of Company Common Stock that, together with the shares of Company Common Stock then owned by Parent and Merger Sub (if any), represents in the aggregate at least one share more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the expiration of the Offer (excluding shares of Company Common Stock tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received,” as such term is defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL, by the depositary for the Offer pursuant to such procedures) (the “Minimum Condition”); and

(ii) the other conditions set forth in Exhibit B ((i) and (ii) together, the “Offer Conditions”).

(b) Changes to the Offer. Merger Sub expressly reserves the right to waive, in whole or in part, any of the Offer Conditions and to make any change in the terms of, or conditions to, the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, Merger Sub may not (and Parent will not permit Merger Sub to) (i) waive the Minimum Condition or any of the conditions set forth in Sections (1), (3) or (9) of Exhibit B or (ii) make any change in the terms of or conditions to the Offer that (A) changes the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer; (B) decreases the consideration in the Offer or the number of shares of Company Common Stock sought in the Offer; (C) extends the Offer, other than in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(c); (D) imposes conditions to the Offer other than those set forth in Exhibit B; or (E) is adverse to the Company Stockholders.

(i) Initial Expiration. Unless the Offer is extended pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, the Offer will expire at midnight, Eastern time, at the end of the day on the date that is the later of (A) 20 Business Days (for this purpose calculated in accordance with Section 14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) after the date that the Offer is first commenced (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) and (B) the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period. If the Offer is extended pursuant to and in

accordance with this Agreement, then the Offer will expire on the date and at the time to which the Offer has been so extended.

(ii) Extensions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1(c)(i) or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to the Parties’ respective termination rights under Article IX, (A) Merger Sub will (and Parent will cause Merger Sub to) extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof or Nasdaq applicable to the Offer or for any period otherwise required by any Law that is applicable to the Offer; and (B) if any of the Offer Conditions have not been satisfied or waived as of any then-scheduled expiration of the Offer, then Merger Sub will (and Parent will cause Merger Sub to) extend the Offer for successive extension periods of up to 10 Business Days each in order to permit such Offer Conditions to be satisfied or waived. Any such extension will not be deemed to impair, limit, or otherwise restrict in any manner the right of the Parties to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms of Article IX. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1, Merger Sub shall not be required to extend the Offer to a date later than the Termination Date or the date of valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(iii) No Subsequent Offering Period. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub will extend the Offer or provide a “subsequent offering period” within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act in any manner other than pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(c)(ii) without the prior written consent of the Company.

(iv) No Termination of the Offer. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub will terminate or withdraw the Offer prior to the then-scheduled expiration of the Offer unless this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Article IX. Following any valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX, Merger Sub will (and Parent will cause Merger Sub to) irrevocably and unconditionally terminate the Offer promptly (but in no event more than one Business Day) after such termination of this Agreement.

(d) Payment for Shares of Company Common Stock. On the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Offer, Merger Sub will (and Parent will cause Merger Sub to) accept for payment, and pay for, all shares of Company Common Stock that are validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer promptly (within the meaning of Section 14e-1(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act) after the expiration of the Offer (as it may be extended in accordance with Section 2.1(c)(ii)) (the time of such acceptance, the “Acceptance Time”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent will provide or cause to be provided to Merger Sub on a timely basis the funds necessary to pay for any shares of Company Common Stock that Merger Sub becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer.

Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub will promptly correct any information provided by it or any of its respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or other Representatives for use in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information will have become false or misleading in any material respect (or as otherwise required by applicable Law).

3.7 Effect on Capital Stock.

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

(i) each share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Merger Sub that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, and each certificate representing ownership of such shares of common stock of Merger Sub will thereafter represent ownership of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation;

(ii) each share of Company Common Stock that is (A) held by the Company as treasury stock; (B) owned by Parent or Merger Sub; or (C) owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub as of immediately prior to

the Effective Time (collectively, the “Owned Company Shares”) will be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor; and

(iii) each share of Company Common Stock (excluding Company Restricted Stock) that is issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Owned Company Shares and Dissenting Company Shares) will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive the Per Share Price, subject to any deduction or withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law and in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and bond, if required) in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.11).

(b) Adjustment to the Per Share Price. The Per Share Price will be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other similar change with respect to the Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time.

(i) Dissenting Company Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by Company Stockholders who have (A) not tendered into the Offer and (B) properly and validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Company Shares”) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Per Share Price pursuant to this Section 3.7. Such Company Stockholders will be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, except that all Dissenting Company Shares held by Company Stockholders who have failed to perfect or who have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Company Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Price, upon surrender of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 3.9.

(ii) Notification of Parent of Demands for Appraisal. The Company will give Parent (A) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company in respect of Dissenting Company Shares; and (B) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and Legal Proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal pursuant to the DGCL in respect of Dissenting Company Shares. The Company may not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or settle or offer to settle any such demands for payment in respect of Dissenting Company Shares. For purposes of this Section 3.7(c)(ii), “participate” means that Parent will be kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to demands for appraisal pursuant to the DGCL in respect of

Dissenting Company Shares (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected) and may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such demands, but Parent will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such demands except for the payment, settlement or compromise consent set forth above.

3.8 Equity Awards.

(a) Company Options. Immediately prior to the Effective Time and in accordance with the existing terms of the Company Stock Plans, (i) each Company Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any Company Option that vests as of or immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to an MRA, as the result of the holder’s qualifying termination of employment prior to the Effective Time) (each, a “Vested Company Option”) will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the amount of the Per Share Price (less the exercise price per share attributable to such Vested Company Option), multiplied by (B) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of such Vested Company Option (the “Vested Option Consideration”), which Vested Option Consideration will be paid, less applicable withholding for all required Taxes, in accordance with Section 3.8(d); (ii) each outstanding Company Option (or portion thereof) that is not a Vested Company Option or an MRA Award will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, vest with respect to an additional 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company Option (provided that in no event will the vesting of a Company Option accelerate as to more than one hundred percent (100%) of such Company Option) (the “Accelerated Company Option”) and automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Vested Option Consideration, and any remaining unvested portion of such Company Option will be cancelled for no consideration, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof; and (iii) each outstanding Company Option (or portion thereof) that is an MRA Award and that is not a Vested Company Option (each, an “Unvested MRA Option”) will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, automatically be assumed and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the amount of the Per Share Price (less the exercise price per share attributable to such Unvested MRA Option), multiplied by (B) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of such Unvested MRA Option (the “Unvested MRA Option Consideration”), with payment of such Unvested MRA Option Consideration to be made less applicable withholding for all required Taxes. Each payment of Unvested MRA Option Consideration will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule applicable to such Unvested MRA Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and any applicable vesting acceleration provisions under the applicable holder’s MRA, except as modified by the following sentence, provided that Unvested MRA Option Consideration payments will be made on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter in which the Unvested MRA Option to which an Unvested MRA Option Consideration payment is attributable would have vested pursuant to the original vesting schedule. On the date that is one (1) year and one (1) day following the Effective Time (such date, the “MRA Award Termination Date”), any Unvested MRA Option Consideration that remains unvested as of the MRA Award Termination Date (and has not previously been forfeited)

will immediately be forfeited for no consideration, except that if as of immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date, the MRA Award holder remains in service to the Surviving Corporation or its Affiliates but has not received the amount of Unvested MRA Option Consideration that such MRA Award holder would have received had the vesting of the Company Option pursuant to which the related Unvested MRA Option was granted accelerated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time as to 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company Option (or if, less, the total number of shares of Company Common Stock that remained unvested as of the Effective Time), the portion of the Unvested MRA Option Consideration necessary to reach such amount shall vest and become payable immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date. For the avoidance of any doubt, if a holder of an Unvested MRA Option fails to vest in any portion of his or her Unvested MRA Option Consideration (including upon the MRA Award Termination Date), such amounts shall be retained by Parent and forfeited by such holder for no consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, any Company Option with respect to which the exercise price per share subject thereto is greater than or equal to the Per Share Price shall be cancelled for no consideration immediately prior to the Effective Time, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof. From and after the Effective Time, no Vested Company Option, Accelerated Company Option and/or Unvested MRA Option shall be exercisable, and a Vested Company Option, Accelerated Company Option or Unvested MRA Option shall only entitle the holder thereof to the Vested Option Consideration or Unvested MRA Option Consideration, as applicable, provided in this Section 3.8(a). Each Unvested MRA Option Consideration payment hereunder is intended to be a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguities hereunder will be interpreted in a manner intended to maintain such exemption from or compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Company Restricted Stock. Immediately prior to the Effective Time and in accordance with the existing terms of the Company Stock Plans, (i) each Company Restricted Stock award (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and is not an MRA Award will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, vest with respect to an additional 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company Restricted Stock award (provided that in no event will the vesting of a Company Restricted Stock award accelerate as to more than one hundred percent (100%) of such Company Restricted Stock award) (the “Accelerated Restricted Stock Award”) and automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the Per Share Price, multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Accelerated Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Vested Restricted Stock Consideration”), which Vested Restricted Stock Consideration will be paid, less applicable withholding for all required Taxes, in accordance with Section 3.8(d); (ii) each outstanding Company Restricted Stock award (or portion thereof) that is not an Accelerated Restricted Stock Award or an MRA Award will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be cancelled for no consideration; and (iii) each outstanding Company Restricted Stock award (or portion thereof) that is an MRA Award (each, an “MRA Restricted Stock Award”) will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, automatically be assumed and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the Per Share Price, multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such MRA Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the

Effective Time (the “MRA Restricted Stock Consideration”), with payment of such MRA Restricted Stock Consideration to be made less applicable withholding for all required Taxes. Each payment of MRA Restricted Stock Consideration will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule applicable to such MRA Restricted Stock Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and any applicable vesting acceleration provisions under the applicable holder’s MRA, except as modified by the following sentence, provided that MRA Restricted Stock Consideration payments will be made on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter in which the MRA Restricted Stock Award to which an MRA Restricted Stock Consideration payment is attributable would have vested pursuant to the original vesting schedule. On the MRA Award Termination Date, any MRA Restricted Stock Consideration that remains unvested as of the MRA Award Termination Date (and has not previously been forfeited) will immediately be forfeited for no consideration, except that if as of immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date, the MRA Award holder remains in service to the Surviving Corporation or its Affiliates but has not received the amount of MRA Restricted Stock Consideration that such MRA Award holder would have received had the vesting of the Company Restricted Stock award pursuant to which the related MRA Restricted Stock Award was granted accelerated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time as to 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company Restricted Stock award (or if, less, the total number of shares of Company Common Stock that remained unvested as of the Effective Time), the portion of the MRA Restricted Stock Consideration necessary to reach such amount shall vest and become payable immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date. For the avoidance of any doubt, if a holder of an MRA Restricted Stock Award fails to vest in any portion of his or her MRA Restricted Stock Consideration (including upon the MRA Award Termination Date), such amounts shall be retained by Parent and forfeited by such holder for no consideration. From and after the Effective Time, a MRA Restricted Stock Award shall only entitle the holder thereof to the MRA Restricted Stock Consideration provided in this Section 3.8(b). Each MRA Restricted Stock Consideration payment hereunder is intended to be a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguities hereunder will be interpreted in a manner intended to maintain such exemption from or compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(c) Company RSUs. Immediately prior to the Effective Time and in accordance with the existing terms of the Company Stock Plans, (i) each Company RSU (or portion thereof), that is outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any Company RSU that vests as of or immediately prior to the Effective Time (x) pursuant to an MRA, as the result of the holder’s qualifying termination of employment prior to the Effective Time, or (y) with respect to any Company RSU that was subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of the date of grant but is now subject to time-based vesting conditions only, pursuant to the applicable Company RSU agreement) (each, a “Vested RSU”) will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the Per Share Price, multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Vested RSU Consideration”), which Vested RSU Consideration will be paid, less applicable withholding for all required Taxes, in accordance with Section 3.8(d), and to the extent a Company RSU remains subject to performance conditions, the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested RSU will be determined based on actual performance in

accordance with the existing terms of the applicable Company RSU agreement, and any Company RSUs for which the performance conditions are not satisfied as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after taking into account any acceleration that would occur immediately prior to or upon the Effective Time) will be cancelled for no consideration, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not accelerate as set forth in the following clause (ii); (ii) each outstanding Company RSU (or portion thereof) that is not a Vested RSU or an MRA Award will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, vest with respect to an additional 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company RSU (provided that in no event will the vesting of a Company RSU accelerate as to more than one hundred percent (100%) of such Company RSU) (the “Accelerated RSU”) and automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Vested RSU Consideration, and any remaining unvested portion of such Company RSU will be cancelled for no consideration, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof; and (iii) each outstanding Company RSU (or portion thereof) that is an MRA Award and that is not a Vested RSU (each, an “MRA Unvested RSU”) will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, automatically be assumed and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (A) the Per Share Price, multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such MRA Unvested RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “MRA Unvested RSU Consideration”), with payment of such MRA Unvested RSU Consideration to be made less applicable withholding for all required Taxes. Each payment of MRA Unvested RSU Consideration will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule applicable to such MRA Unvested RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and any applicable vesting acceleration provisions under the applicable holder’s MRA, except as modified by the following sentence, provided that MRA Unvested RSU Consideration payments will be made on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter in which the MRA Unvested RSU to which an MRA Unvested RSU Consideration payment is attributable would have vested pursuant to the original vesting schedule. On the MRA Award Termination Date, any MRA Unvested RSU Consideration that remains unvested as of the MRA Award Termination Date (and has not previously been forfeited) will immediately be forfeited for no consideration, except that if as of immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date, the MRA Award holder remains in service to the Surviving Corporation or its Affiliates but has not received the amount of MRA Unvested RSU Consideration that such MRA Award holder would have received had the vesting of the Company RSU award pursuant to which the related MRA Unvested RSU was granted accelerated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time as to 25% of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock originally subject to such Company RSU award (or if, less, the total number of shares of Company Common Stock that remained unvested as of the Effective Time), the portion of the MRA Unvested RSU Consideration necessary to reach such amount shall vest and become payable immediately prior to the MRA Award Termination Date. For the avoidance of any doubt, if a holder of an MRA Unvested RSU fails to vest in any portion of his or her MRA Unvested RSU Consideration (including upon the MRA Award Termination Date), such amounts shall be retained by Parent and forfeited by such holder for no consideration. From and after the Effective Time, a MRA Unvested RSU shall only entitle the holder thereof to the MRA Unvested RSU Consideration provided in this Section 3.8(c). Each MRA Unvested RSU Consideration payment hereunder is intended to be a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the

Code, and any ambiguities hereunder will be interpreted in a manner intended to maintain such exemption from or compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Payment Procedures. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the aggregate Vested Option Consideration, Vested Restricted Stock Consideration and Vested RSU Consideration owed to all holders of Vested Company Options, Accelerated Company Options, Accelerated Restricted Stock Awards, Vested RSUs and Accelerated RSUs respectively. Within five Business Days of the Closing Date, the applicable holders of Vested Company Options, Accelerated Company Options, Accelerated Restricted Stock Awards, Vested RSUs and Accelerated RSUs will receive a payment from the Company or the Surviving Corporation, through its payroll system or payroll provider, of all amounts required to be paid to such holders in respect of such Vested Company Options, Accelerated Company Options, Accelerated Restricted Stock Awards, Vested RSUs and Accelerated RSUs, respectively, that are cancelled and converted pursuant to Section 3.8. All such payments will be less any applicable withholding Taxes.

(e) Further Actions. The Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) will take all action reasonably necessary to effect the cancellation or assumption, as applicable, of Company Stock-Based Awards and Company Options upon the Effective Time and to give effect to this Section 3.8 (including the satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 16b-3(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act). The Company will ensure that following the Effective Time no participant in any Company Stock Plan or other Company Benefit Plan will have any right thereunder to acquire any equity securities of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(f) Treatment of ESPP. With respect to the ESPP, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) will adopt resolutions or take other actions as may be required to provide that each individual participating in the Offering Period (as defined in the ESPP) in progress on the date of this Agreement will not be permitted to (i) increase his or her payroll contribution rate pursuant to the ESPP from the rate in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement; or (ii) make separate non-payroll contributions to the ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement that have the effect of increasing his or her contribution rate in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement, in each case, except as may be required by applicable Law. No individual who is not participating in the ESPP as of the date of this Agreement will be allowed to commence participation in the ESPP following the date of this Agreement. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will take all action that may be necessary to, effective upon the consummation of the Merger, (A) cause any Offering Period that would otherwise be outstanding at the Effective Time to be terminated no later than one Business Day prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs; (B) make any pro rata adjustments that may be necessary to reflect the shortened Offering Period, but otherwise treat such shortened Offering Period as a fully effective and completed Offering Period for all purposes pursuant to the ESPP; (C) cause the exercise (as of no later than one Business Day prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs) of each outstanding purchase right pursuant to the ESPP; and (D) provide that no further Offering Period will commence pursuant to the ESPP after the date of this Agreement. On such exercise date, the Company will apply the funds credited as of such date pursuant to the ESPP within each participant’s payroll withholding account to the purchase of whole

shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the ESPP. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time (but subject to the consummation of the Merger), the Company will terminate the ESPP.

3.9 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Payment Agent. Prior to the Acceptance Time, Parent will (i) select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent in the Offer and the Merger (the “Payment Agent”); and (ii) enter into a payment agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with such Payment Agent.

(b) Exchange Fund. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.1(d) and Section 3.7, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate consideration to which such Company Stockholders become entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(d) and Section 3.7; provided, that the Company shall, at the written request of Parent, deposit with the Payment Agent at the Effective Time (or as promptly as practicable thereafter) a portion of such aggregate consideration, from the Company’s Cash on Hand as specified in such request. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such cash will be invested by the Payment Agent, as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in (i) obligations of or fully guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States with a maturity of no more than 30 days; (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively; or (iii) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1,000,000,000 (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) (such cash and any proceeds thereon, the “Exchange Fund”). To the extent that (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund; (B) the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Payment Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.1(d) and Section 3.7; or (C) all or any portion of the Exchange Fund is unavailable for Parent (or the Payment Agent on behalf of Parent) to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.1(d) and Section 3.7 for any reason, then Parent will, or will cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Payment Agent to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.1(d) and Section 3.7. Any interest or other income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs.

(i) Certificates. Promptly following the Effective Time (and in any event within three Business Days), Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Company Shares and Owned Company Shares) (the “Certificates”) whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the consideration

payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7, (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payment Agent); and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7. Upon surrender to the Payment Agent of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 3.11) for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed, and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Payment Agent in accordance with the terms of such materials and instructions, the holder of such Certificate will be entitled to receive in exchange for the number of shares represented by such Certificate (and Parent will cause the Payment Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as practicable) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate by (2) the Per Share Price (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof). The Certificate so surrendered will be cancelled. The Payment Agent will accept Certificates upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Payment Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of any holder of the Certificates on the amount payable upon the surrender of such Certificates pursuant to this Section 3.9(c)(i). Until so surrendered, the Certificates will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7.

(ii) Uncertificated Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of shares of Company Common Stock held in book-entry form (the “Uncertificated Shares”) will not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Payment Agent to receive the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7. In lieu thereof, each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of an Uncertificated Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented an outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Company Shares and Owned Company Shares) whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7 will, upon receipt of an “agent’s message” in customary form (it being understood that the holders of Uncertificated Shares will be deemed to have surrendered such Uncertificated Shares upon receipt of an “agent’s message” or such other evidence, if any, as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) at the Effective Time, be entitled to receive (and Parent will cause the Payment Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as practicable) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares by (B) the Per Share Price (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof). The Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be cancelled. The Payment Agent will accept transferred Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Payment Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of any holder of the Uncertificated Shares on the amount payable upon the surrender of such Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 3.9(c)(ii). Until so surrendered, Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7(a).

(d) DTC Payment. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company will cooperate to establish procedures with the Payment Agent and DTC with the objective that the Payment Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees on the first Business Day after the Closing Date an amount in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, equal to (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Owned Company Shares and Dissenting Company Shares) held of record by DTC or such nominee immediately prior to the Effective Time; multiplied by (B) the Per Share Price (such amount, the “DTC Payment”).

(e) Transfers of Ownership. If a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock is not registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, or if the consideration payable is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates surrendered or transferred in exchange therefor are registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, then the consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.7 may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered or transferred is registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company only if such Certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer and the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Price to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable. Payment of the consideration payable with respect to Uncertificated Shares will only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered.

(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Party will be liable to a Company Stockholder for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificates or Uncertificated Shares have not been surrendered immediately prior to the date on which any cash in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, then any such cash in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Distribution of Exchange Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the date that is one year after the Effective Time will be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger who have not theretofore surrendered or transferred their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such shares of Company Common Stock for exchange pursuant to this Section 3.9 will thereafter look for payment of the Per Share Price payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares solely to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws), solely as general creditors thereof, for any claim to the Per Share Price to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.7.

3.10 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, (a) all shares of Company Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; and (b) each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated

Shares previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration payable therefor in accordance with Section 3.7 (or in the case of Dissenting Company Shares, the rights pursuant to Section 3.7(c)). The consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article III upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they will (subject to compliance with the exchange procedures of Section 3.9(c)) be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

3.11 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent will issue in exchange therefor, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7. Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Per Share Price, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

3.12 Required Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, or any Affiliate of Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation, will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom pursuant to any Tax Laws. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

3.13 Future Dividends or Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to capital stock of the Surviving Corporation with a record date on or after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificates or Uncertificated Shares.

3.14 Necessary Further Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, then the directors and officers of the Company and Merger Sub as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will take all such lawful and necessary action.

4.1 Organization; Good Standing. The Company (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing pursuant to the DGCL; and (b) has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as it is presently being conducted and to own, lease or operate its properties and assets. The Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its properties and assets owned or leased or the nature of its activities make such qualification necessary (to the extent that the concept of “good standing” is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States), except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company has made available to Parent true, correct and complete copies of the Charter and the Bylaws, each as amended to date. The Company is not in violation of the Charter or the Bylaws.

4.2 Corporate Power; Enforceability. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to (a) execute and deliver this Agreement; (b) perform its covenants and obligations under this Agreement; and (c) consummate the Offer and the Merger. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the performance by the Company of its covenants and obligations under this Agreement, and the consummation of the Offer and the Merger have each been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no additional corporate actions on the part of the Company (other than the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware) are necessary to authorize (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company; (ii) the performance by the Company of its covenants and obligations under this Agreement; or (iii) the consummation of the Offer and the Merger. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability (A) may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally; and (B) is subject to general principles of equity (the limitations set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above, collectively, “Enforceability Limitations”).

(b) Fairness Opinion. The Company Board received the written opinion (or an oral opinion to be confirmed in writing) of the Company Financial Advisor to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and based upon and subject to the various qualifications and assumptions set forth therein, the Per Share Price to be received by the Company Stockholders (other than Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, if applicable) pursuant to this Agreement is fair from a financial point of view to such holders (it being understood and agreed that such opinion is for the benefit of the Company Board and may not be relied upon by Parent or Merger Sub).

(c) Anti-Takeover Laws. Assuming that the representations of Parent and Merger Sub set forth in Section 5.6 are true and correct, the Company Board has taken all necessary actions so that the restrictions on business combinations set forth in Section 203 of the DGCL and any other similar applicable “anti-takeover” Law will not be applicable to the Offer, the Merger, the Tender and Support Agreements or the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

4.4 No Stockholder Approval Required. Assuming that the requirements of Section 251(h) of the DGCL are met with respect to the Offer and the Merger, no vote of the Company Stockholders or other capital stock of the Company is necessary to adopt this Agreement and consummate the Offer and the Merger under applicable Law, the Charter or the Bylaws.

4.5 Non-Contravention.

except in the case of each of clauses (b), (c) and (d) for such violations, conflicts, breaches, defaults, terminations, accelerations or liens that would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

4.6 Requisite Governmental Approvals. No Consent, authorization of, filing or registration with, or notification to any Governmental Authority is required on the part of the Company in connection with the (a) execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company; (b) performance by the Company of its covenants and obligations pursuant to this Agreement; or (c) consummation of the Merger, except (i) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and such filings with Governmental Authorities to satisfy the applicable Laws of states in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are qualified to do business; (ii) such filings and approvals as may be required by any federal or state securities Laws, including compliance with any applicable requirements of the Exchange Act; (iii) compliance with any applicable requirements of the HSR Act and any applicable foreign Antitrust Laws; and (iv) such other Consents the failure of which to obtain would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

4.10 Company Financial Statements; Internal Controls; Indebtedness.

(a) Company Financial Statements.

Neither the Company nor its principal executive officer or principal financial officer has received notice from any Governmental Authority challenging or questioning the accuracy, completeness, form or manner of filing of such certifications.

Since the date of the Audited Company Balance Sheet through the date of this Agreement, there has not occurred a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Forbearance. Since January 1, 2017, through the date of this Agreement, the Company has not taken any action that would be prohibited by Section 6.2(a) (except for Section 6.2(a)(iii), Section 6.2(a)(ix), Section 6.2(a)(xiv) and, with respect to the foregoing sections, Section 6.2(a)(xix)) if taken or proposed to be taken after the date of this Agreement.

(b) Validity. Each Material Contract is valid and binding on the Company or each such Subsidiary of the Company party thereto and is in full force and effect, and none of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries party thereto or, to the Knowledge of the Company, any other party thereto is in breach of or default pursuant to any such Material Contract, except for such failures to be in full force and effect that would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect. No event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a breach or default pursuant to any Material Contract by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or, to the Knowledge of the Company, any other party thereto, except for such breaches and defaults that would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and continuing until 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on August 16, 2017 (the “Transaction Solicitation Period”), the Company may, directly or indirectly, including with the assistance of investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and other Representatives of the Company, (i) actively solicit, initiate, propose or induce the making, submission, or knowingly encourage, facilitate or assist, any proposal that constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) participate, or engage in discussions or negotiations, with any Person with respect to, or that may be expected to lead to, an Acquisition

Proposal, and in connection with such efforts, the Company may authorize its or any of its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, employees, agents or other Representatives (including any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by the Company or by any of the Subsidiaries of the Company), directly or indirectly, to solicit, initiate, propose or induce the making, submission, or knowingly encourage, facilitate or otherwise assist, efforts by any Person or group (each a “Prospective Acquirer”) to decide whether to make an Acquisition Proposal. Any Prospective Acquirer with whom the Company has active discussions with respect to an Acquisition Proposal at any time during the Transaction Solicitation Period shall be an “Excluded Party” for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) During the Transaction Solicitation Period, the Company may provide non-public information about the Company and its Subsidiaries to Prospective Acquirers, but the Company will not provide, or authorize anyone to provide, non-public information about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to a Prospective Acquirer unless the Prospective Acquirer enters into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with the Company. If the Company provides to any Prospective Acquirer non-public information about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that the Company has not provided to Parent, the Company will as promptly as practicable provide that non-public information to Parent.

(c) If at any time during the Transaction Solicitation Period the Company Board is presented with or receives a bona fide, written or oral Acquisition Proposal from a Prospective Acquirer, then the Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours from the receipt thereof ) advise Parent in writing of such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal (including any material amendments thereto) and the identity of the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal (unless any such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person that is in effect on the date of this Agreement) and copies of all relevant proposed agreements and financing commitments (to the extent provided to the Company) relating to such Acquisition Proposal. Thereafter, the Company must keep Parent reasonably informed, on a prompt basis, of the status and terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (including any material amendments thereto) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations. The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality or other agreement subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits the Company from complying with this Section 6.3(c).

6.4 No Solicitation.

(a) No Solicitation or Negotiation. Subject to the terms of Section 6.4(b), from the end of the Transaction Solicitation Period until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Acceptance Time, the Company will cease and cause to be terminated any discussions or negotiations with, and terminate any data room access (or other access to diligence) of, any Person and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, representatives and advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) relating to an Acquisition Transaction. Unless the Company has already so requested prior to the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period, promptly following the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period, the Company will request that each Person (other than Parent and its Representatives and any Excluded Parties) that has, prior to the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period, executed a

confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of an Acquisition Transaction, promptly return or destroy, in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement, all non-public information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period. Subject to the terms of Section 6.4(b) and Section 6.4(d), from the end of the Transaction Solicitation Period until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Acceptance Time, the Company and its Subsidiaries, and their respective directors and executive officers, will not, and the Company will not authorize, direct, permit or instruct any of its or its Subsidiaries’ employees, consultants or other Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, propose or induce the making, submission or announcement of, or knowingly encourage, facilitate or assist, any proposal that constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) furnish to any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective designees) any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or afford to any Person access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective designees), in any such case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal or with the intent to induce the making, submission or announcement of, or to knowingly encourage, facilitate or assist, an Acquisition Proposal or the making of any proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (iii) participate, or engage in discussions or negotiations, with any Person with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or with respect to any inquiries from third Persons relating to the making of an Acquisition Proposal (other than only informing such Persons of the provisions contained in this Section 6.4); (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any proposal that constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (v) enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other Contract relating to an Acquisition Transaction, other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (any such letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other Contract relating to an Acquisition Transaction, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”); or (vi) authorize, resolve or commit to do any of the foregoing. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Acceptance Time, the Company will not be required to enforce, and will be permitted to waive, any provision of any standstill or confidentiality agreement to the extent that such provision prohibits or purports to prohibit a confidential proposal being made to the Company Board (or any committee thereof).

(b) Superior Proposals. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in this Section 6.4, from the date of this Agreement until the Acceptance Time, the Company and the Company Board (or a committee thereof) may, directly or indirectly through one or more of their Representatives (including the Company Financial Advisor), following the execution of an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, (i) participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with; (ii) furnish any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to; or (iii) afford access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, in each case, any Person or its Representatives that has made or delivered to the Company a written Acquisition Proposal after the date of this Agreement that was not solicited in material breach of Section 6.4(a), but only if the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that (A) such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a

Superior Proposal or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal; and (B) the failure to take the actions contemplated by this Section 6.4(b) would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law. In connection with the foregoing, the Company will as promptly as practicable make available to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that is provided to any such Person or its Representatives that was not previously made available to Parent.

(c) No Change in Company Board Recommendation or Entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as provided by Section 6.4(d), at no time after the date of this Agreement may the Company Board (or a committee thereof):

(ii) cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(d) Company Board Recommendation Change; Entry into Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time:

(i) other than in connection with a bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) may effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event if the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law if and only if:

(A) the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least two Business Days in advance to the effect that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has (A) so determined; and (B) resolved to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.4(d)(i), which notice will describe the applicable Intervening Event in reasonable detail; and

(B) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company and its Representatives, during such two Business Day period, have (A) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) no longer determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law; and (B) permitted Parent and its Representatives to make a presentation to the Company Board regarding this Agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto (to the extent that Parent requests to make such a presentation); or

(ii) if the Company has received a bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal, whether during or after the Transaction Solicitation Period, that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) is a Superior Proposal, then the Company Board may (A) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change with respect to such Superior Proposal; or (B) authorize the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(h) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, in each case if and only if:

(A) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law;

(B) the Company has complied in all material respects with its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.4 with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; and

(C) (x) the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least four Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”) to the effect that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has (A) received a bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn; (B) concluded in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; and (C) resolved to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.4(d)(ii) absent revision to the terms of this Agreement as contemplated by clause (y)(1) of this Section 6.4(d)(ii)(C), which notice will describe the basis for such Company Board Recommendation Change or termination, including the identity of the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal (unless any such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person or Group that is in effect on the date of this Agreement), the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal and copies of all relevant proposed agreements and financing

commitments (to the extent provided to the Company) relating to such Acquisition Proposal; and (y) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change or termination, the Company and its Representatives, during the Notice Period, have (1) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (2) permitted Parent and its Representatives to make a presentation to the Company Board regarding this Agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto (to the extent that Parent requests to make such a presentation), it being understood that (a) in the event of any material revisions to such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.4(d)(ii)(C) with respect to such new written notice (with the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice being two Business Days); and (b) at the end of the Notice Period, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) must have in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) reaffirmed its determination that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal.

(e) Notice to Parent. From the end of the Transaction Solicitation Period until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Acceptance Time, the Company will as promptly as practicable notify Parent if any Acquisition Proposal, or inquiry from any Person or Group related to their making a potential Acquisition Proposal, is, to the Knowledge of the Company (which, for this purpose, will be deemed to include any member of the Company Board and will not be deemed to be only as of the date of this Agreement) received by, any non-public information is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company or any of its Representatives. Such notice must include (A) the identity of the Person or Group making such proposal, inquiry, request or offer (unless such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person or Group that is in effect on the date of this Agreement) and (B) a summary of the material terms and conditions of such proposal, inquiry, request or offer and, if in writing, a copy thereof. Thereafter, the Company must keep Parent reasonably informed, on a prompt basis, of the status and terms of any such offers or proposals (including any amendments thereto) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations. The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality or other agreement subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits the Company from complying with this Section 6.4(e).

(f) Permitted Disclosures. So long as the Company Board (or a committee thereof) expressly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such disclosure (other than in a customary “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act):

(i) nothing in this Agreement will prohibit the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) from (A) taking and disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or complying with Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, including making a “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any substantially similar

communication); (B) complying with Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act; (C) informing any Person of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 6.4; or (D) making any disclosure to the Company Stockholders (including regarding the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries) that the Company Board (or a committee thereof), after consultation with its outside legal counsel, has determined in good faith is required by applicable Law; provided, that, it is understood that nothing in the foregoing will be deemed to permit the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change other than in accordance with Section 6.4(d); and

(ii) it is understood and agreed that, for purposes of this Agreement, a factually accurate public statement by the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) that (A) describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal; (B) identifies the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal; (C) provides the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal; or (D) describes the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto will not, in any case, be deemed to be (1) a withholding, withdrawal, amendment, qualification or modification, or proposal by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify, the Company Board Recommendation; (2) an adoption, approval or recommendation with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; or (3) a Company Board Recommendation Change;

(g) Breach by Representatives. The Company agrees that (a) any action taken by a Representative of the Company (other than an executive officer or director of the Company) that is authorized, permitted, directed or instructed by the Company or any executive officer or director of the Company or that an executive officer or director of the Company is made aware of and does not take action to cease and that, if taken by the Company, would constitute a material breach of this Section 6.4, will be deemed to constitute a breach by the Company of this Section 6.4, and (b) any action taken by any executive officer or director of the Company and that, if taken by the Company, would constitute a breach of this Section 6.4, will be deemed to constitute a breach by the Company of this Section 6.4.

6.5 No Control of the Other Party’s Business. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are not intended to give Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the business or operations of the other at any time prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company will exercise, consistent with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over their respective businesses and operations.

(a) No Amendments to Equity Commitment Letter. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of Parent and Merger Sub will not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy pursuant to, the Equity Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification or waiver would, or would reasonably be expected to, (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Equity Financing; (ii) impose new or additional conditions or other terms or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Equity Financing or any other terms to the Equity Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) delay or prevent the Closing Date; or (B) make the timely funding of the Equity Financing, or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Equity Financing, less likely to occur in any respect; or (iii) adversely impact the ability of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, to enforce its rights against the Sponsor under the Equity Commitment Letter.

7.6 Access. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement

pursuant to Article IX and (2) Effective Time, the Company will afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice, to the properties, books and records and personnel of the Company, except that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (a) any applicable Law requires the Company to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information; (b) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (c) access to a Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or otherwise bound would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give a third Person the right to terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; (d) access would result in the disclosure of any Trade Secrets of third Persons; or (e) such documents or information are reasonably pertinent to any adverse Legal Proceeding between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Nothing in this Section 7.6 will be construed to require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.6 will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Any access to the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures and insurance requirements and will not include the right to perform invasive testing. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement will apply to any information obtained by Parent or any of its Representatives in connection with any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.6. All requests for access pursuant to this Section 7.6 must be directed to the Company’s General Counsel or another person designated in writing by the Company.

7.7 Section 16(b) Exemption. The Company will take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the Merger, and any dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the Merger by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

7.8 Rule 14d-10. The Parties acknowledge that certain payments have been made or are to be made and certain benefits have been granted or are to be granted according to employment compensation, severance and other employee benefit plans of the Company, including the Company Benefit Plans (collectively, the “Arrangements”), to certain Company Stockholders and holders of Company Options and Company Stock-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee of the Company Board of Directors (the “Company Compensation Committee”) (a) at a meeting to be held prior to the Acceptance Time, will duly adopt resolutions approving as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act (i) each Arrangement presented to the Company Compensation Committee on or prior to the date of this Agreement, (ii) the treatment of the Company Options and Company Stock-Based Awards, as applicable, in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) the terms of Section 7.9 and Section 7.10; and (b) will take all other actions necessary to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor under Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act with respect to the foregoing arrangements. Each member of the Company

Compensation Committee is an “independent director” in accordance with the requirements of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act.

7.9 Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnified Persons. The Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any indemnification agreements between the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of their respective current or former directors or officers (and any person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time), on the other hand (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) or employees for any acts or omissions by such Indemnified Persons or employees occurring prior to the Effective Time. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Charter, the Bylaws and the other similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date of this Agreement. During such six-year period, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Indemnification Obligation. Without limiting the generality of Section 7.9(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law or pursuant to any indemnification agreements with the Company and any of its Subsidiaries in effect as of the date of this Agreement, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, to (i) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission, in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates (to the extent that such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Effective Time); and (ii) the Offer or the Merger, as well as any actions taken by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub with respect thereto (including any disposition of assets of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries that is alleged to have rendered the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries insolvent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.9(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding, (A) the Surviving Corporation will have the right to control the defense thereof after the Effective Time (it being understood that, by electing to control the defense thereof, the Surviving Corporation will be deemed to have waived any right to object to the Indemnified

Person’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement with respect thereto); (B) each Indemnified Person will be entitled to retain his or her own counsel (the fees and expenses of which will be paid by the Surviving Corporation), whether or not the Surviving Corporation elects to control the defense of any such Legal Proceeding; (C) upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay any amount if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification, the Surviving Corporation will advance all fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of any counsel) as incurred by an Indemnified Person in the defense of such Legal Proceeding, whether or not the Surviving Corporation elects to control the defense of any such Legal Proceeding; and (D) no Indemnified Person will be liable for any settlement of such Legal Proceeding effected without his or her prior written consent (unless such settlement relates only to monetary damages for which the Surviving Corporation is entirely responsible). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates will settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or otherwise seek the termination of, any Legal Proceeding for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnified Persons from all liability arising out of such Legal Proceeding. Any determination required to be made with respect to whether the conduct of any Indemnified Person complies or complied with any applicable standard will be made by independent legal counsel selected by the Surviving Corporation (which counsel will be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person), the fees and expenses of which will be paid by the Surviving Corporation.

(c) D&O Insurance. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the D&O Insurance in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are equivalent to those of the D&O Insurance. In satisfying its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.9(c), the Surviving Corporation will not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such 300% amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”). If the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Annual Premium, then the Surviving Corporation will be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier. Prior to the Effective Time, and in lieu of maintaining the D&O Insurance pursuant to this Section 7.9(c), the Company may (or, if the Parent requests, the Company will) purchase a prepaid “tail” policy (a “Tail Policy”) with respect to the D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier so long as the annual cost for a Tail Policy does not exceed the Maximum Annual Premium. If the Company purchases a Tail Policy prior to the Effective Time, then the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such a Tail Policy in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder for so long as such a Tail Policy is in full force and effect.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the

continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each case, proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns will assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation set forth in this Section 7.9.

(e) No Impairment. The obligations set forth in this Section 7.9 may not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person (and their heirs and representatives) who is a beneficiary pursuant to the D&O Insurance or a Tail Policy) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person. Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons (and their heirs and representatives) who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or a Tail Policy are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.9, with full rights of enforcement as if a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons (and their heirs and representatives) who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or a Tail Policy) pursuant to this Section 7.9 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have pursuant to (i) the Charter and Bylaws; (ii) the similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company; (iii) any and all indemnification agreements entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) applicable Law.

(f) Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.9 will be joint and several.

(g) Other Claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement 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 and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.9 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or agreements.

7.10 Employee Matters.

(a) Change of Control Acknowledgement. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that a “change of control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of each of the Company Benefit Plans, as applicable, will occur as of the Acceptance Time.

(b) Existing Arrangements. From and after the Acceptance Time, the Company will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) honor all of the Company Benefit Plans and compensation and severance arrangements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Acceptance Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.10 will prohibit the Surviving Corporation from amending or terminating any such Company Benefit Plans or compensation or severance arrangements in accordance with their terms or as otherwise permitted under applicable Law.

(c) Employment; Benefits. Immediately following the Closing, the employment of all employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time will continue with the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries. For a period of one year following the Effective Time (or until the Continuing Employee’s termination, if shorter), the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) provide each Continuing Employee with (i) severance benefits that are no less favorable than those provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employee under the existing terms of an applicable Company Benefit Plan in effect as of the date of this Agreement and provided to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement, (ii) base compensation that is no less favorable than the base compensation provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employee as of the date of this Agreement, and (iii) group medical, dental, vision, life, accidental death and dismemberment and disability benefits (“Group Welfare Benefits”) that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to those provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employee as of the date of this Agreement, unless the costs to the Company or its Affiliates to provide such Group Welfare Benefits materially increase, in which case, Continuing Employees will be provided Group Welfare Benefits that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the Group Welfare Benefits provided by Parent and its Affiliates to their similarly situated employees.

(d) New Plans. To the extent that an employee benefit plan is made available to any Continuing Employee at or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting (other than vesting of future equity awards) and for purposes of vacation accrual and severance pay entitlement, to the same extent such service was recognized for similar purposes under the Company Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing, except that such service need not be credited to the extent that it would result in duplication of coverage or benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all employee benefit plans sponsored by the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company Benefit Plans) (such plans, the “New Plans”) to the extent that coverage pursuant to any New Plan replaces coverage pursuant to a comparable Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately before the Acceptance Time (such plans, the “Old Plans”), other than limitations that were in effect with respect to such Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Acceptance Time under the corresponding Old Plan; (ii) with respect to each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision, disability or other welfare benefits to any Continuing Employee, (A) all waiting periods, pre-existing conditions or limitations, physical examination requirements, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents and (B) any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date that such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be recognized under the New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, co-payments, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan; and

(iii) the crediting of the accounts of such Continuing Employees pursuant to any New Plan that is a flexible spending plan with any unused balance in the account of such Continuing Employee. Any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be credited to such Continuing Employee following the Effective Time, will not be subject to forfeiture (except to the extent such forfeitures applied under the Company Benefit Plans in effect as of to the date of this Agreement).

(e) No Third Person Beneficiary Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, neither this Section 7.10 nor any provisions of this Agreement relating to Company Benefit Plans will be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to terminate any Continuing Employee for any reason; (ii) subject to Parent, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries otherwise satisfying its obligations under this Section 7.10, require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to continue any Company Benefit Plan or other benefit plan or arrangement or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; (iii) create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person; or (iv) be treated as establishment, an amendment of, or undertaking to establish or amend, any Company Benefit Plan or other benefit plan or arrangement.

7.11 Obligations of Merger Sub. Parent will take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation to perform their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement and to consummate the Offer and the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Parent and Merger Sub will be jointly and severally liable for the failure by either of them to perform and discharge any of their respective covenants, agreements and obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

7.12 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Notification by the Company. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Effective Time, the Company will give prompt notice to Parent upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure by the Company to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement, in each case if and only to the extent that such untruth, inaccuracy, or failure would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Offer set forth in Sections (4), (5), (6) or (7) of Exhibit B to fail to be satisfied at the Closing. No such notification will affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Offer or the remedies available to the Parties under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement apply to any information provided to Parent pursuant to this Section 7.12(a).

(b) Notification by Parent. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Effective Time, Parent will give

prompt notice to the Company upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure by Parent or Merger Sub to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement, in each case if and only to the extent that such untruth, inaccuracy or failure would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impede the consummation of the Offer or the Merger. No such notification will affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the Company to consummate the Offer and the Merger or the remedies available to the Parties under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement apply to any information provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 7.12(b).

7.13 Public Statements and Disclosure. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall each issue a press release concerning this Agreement and the Merger that is reasonably acceptable to the other Party. Thereafter, subject to Section 6.3 and Section 6.4, the Company (other than with respect to the portion of any communication relating to a Company Board Recommendation Change), on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, will use their respective reasonable best efforts to consult with the other Parties before (a) participating in any media interviews; (b) engaging in any meetings or calls with analysts, institutional investors or other similar Persons; or (c) providing any statements that are public or are reasonably likely to become public, in each case to the extent relating to this Agreement, the Offer or the Merger, except that the Company will not be obligated to engage in such consultation with respect to communications (i) that are required by applicable Law; (ii) that are principally directed to employees, suppliers, customers, partners or vendors so long as such communications are consistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the Parties (or individually if approved by the other Party); or (iii) to the extent related to a Superior Proposal or Company Board Recommendation Change.

7.14 Transaction Litigation. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the (1) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (2) Effective Time, the Company will provide Parent with prompt notice of all Transaction Litigation (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto) and keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company will (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; and (c) consider in good faith Parent’s advice with respect to any Transaction Litigation. The Company may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Transaction Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 7.14, “participate” means that Parent will be kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to the Transaction Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Transaction Litigation except for the settlement or compromise consent set forth above.

7.15 Stock Exchange Delisting; Deregistration. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part pursuant to applicable Law to cause (a) the delisting of the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time; and (b) the deregistration of the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

(a) acquire or agree to acquire by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, any business of any Person or other business organization or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets if such business competes in any line of business of the Company or its Subsidiaries and the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such acquisition, merger or consolidation could reasonably be expected to (i) impose any delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any authorization, consent, order, declaration or approval of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the Offer or the Merger or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Offer or the Merger; (iii) increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (iv) delay or prevent the consummation of the Offer or the Merger; or

Following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement will be of no further force or effect without liability of any Party to the other Parties, as applicable, except that, and subject in all respects to this Section 9.2, Section 9.3, Section 10.8 (in each case, including the limitations set forth herein or therein), Section 7.4(c), Section 7.4(f), Section 7.13, this Section 9.2, Section 9.3, Section 9.4, Section 9.5 and Article X will each survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms. Notwithstanding the previous sentence but subject to Section 9.3(e), nothing in this Agreement will relieve any Party from any liability for any willful and material breach of this Agreement. No valid termination of this Agreement will affect the rights or obligations of any Party pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter, which rights, obligations and agreements will survive the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms.

9.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) General. Except as set forth in this Section 9.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger will be paid by the Party incurring such fees and expenses whether or not the Offer and the Merger are consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent or the Surviving Corporation will be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Payment Agent.

(b) Company Payments.

(i) Future Transactions. If (A) this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(c), Section 9.1(d) or Section 9.1(e); (B) at the time of such termination, the conditions set forth in Section (1) and Section (3) of Exhibit B have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied and, in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(e), the Company does not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(g); (C) following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c), Section 9.1(d) or Section 9.1(e), an Acquisition Proposal has been publicly announced or publicly disclosed and not withdrawn or otherwise abandoned; and (D) within one year of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c), Section 9.1(d) or Section 9.1(e), as applicable, either an Acquisition Transaction is consummated or the Company enters into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction and such Acquisition Transaction is subsequently consummated, then the Company will, concurrently with the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction, pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee an amount equal to $4,100,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent. For purposes of this Section 9.3(b)(i), all references to “15%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(ii) Company Board Recommendation Change. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(f), then the Company must within two Business Days following such termination pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee the Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent.

(iii) Superior Proposal. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(h), then the Company must concurrently with such termination pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee the Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent; provided, that if such termination occurs prior to the expiration of the Transaction Solicitation Period, then “Termination Fee” in this Section 9.3(b)(iii) shall mean an amount equal to $2,800,000.

(c) Single Payment Only. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event will the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Termination Fee may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) the damages resulting from the termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation; and (iii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Therefore, the Termination Fee, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.3, will not constitute a penalty but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger.

(d) Payments; Default. If the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 9.3(b) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a Legal

Proceeding that results in a judgment against the Company for the amount set forth in Section 9.3(b) or any portion thereof, then the Company will pay or cause to be paid to Parent the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) of Parent in connection with such Legal Proceeding, together with interest on such amount or portion thereof at the annual rate of 4.5% plus the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date that such payment or portion thereof was required to be made) through the date that such payment or portion thereof was actually received, or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

(e) Certain Limitations.

(i) Parent Liability Limitation. Other than for (x) financial obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter that may be specifically enforced in accordance with Section 10.8 and (y) willful breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub or the Equity Commitment Letter by Sponsor, under no circumstances will the collective monetary damages payable by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates for breaches of this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter exceed in the aggregate for all such breaches an amount equal to $16,300,000 plus the Reimbursement Obligations (the “Parent Liability Limitation”) (it being understood that (1) “willful breach” for purposes of this sentence means a material breach that is the consequence of an act or omission with the actual knowledge or intention that the taking of such act or omission would, or would be reasonably likely to, constitute a material breach of this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter, and (2) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter, in order for the exception in the foregoing clause (y) to be permitted with respect to a claim of monetary damages in respect to any willful breach, the Company has first sought and was unsuccessful in obtaining a specific performance remedy to address such claim of willful breach (such clauses (1) and (2), collectively the “Willful Breach Requirements”)). In no event will any of the Company Related Parties seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives or any other Person acting on their behalf to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or award in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against (A) Parent, Merger Sub or the Sponsor; or (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Financing Sources, Affiliates (other than Parent, Merger Sub or the Sponsor), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Sponsor (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”), and in no event will the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be entitled to seek or obtain any monetary damages of any kind, including consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages, in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against the Parent Related Parties for, or with respect to, this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, any breach by the Sponsor, Parent or Merger Sub), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure. Other than the Sponsor’s obligations under the Equity Commitment Letter and other than the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, in no event will any Parent Related Party or any other Person other than the Sponsor, Parent and Merger Sub have any liability for monetary damages to the Company or any other Person relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Merger; provided that nothing in this

Section 9.3 shall be deemed to limit the Company’s rights as a third party beneficiary to specific performance of the Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms thereof.

(ii) Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Parent’s receipt of the Termination Fee to the extent owed pursuant to Section 9.3(b) and Parent’s right to specific performance pursuant to Section 10.8 will be the sole and exclusive remedies of Parent and Merger Sub and each of their respective Affiliates against (A) the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) in respect of this Agreement and the Merger, and upon payment of such amount, none of the Company Related Parties will have any further monetary liability or obligation to Parent or Merger Sub relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Merger (except that the Parties (or their Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and the Parties may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 9.2, Section 9.3(a) and Section 9.3(d), as applicable).

(f) Acknowledgement Regarding Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 9.3(e), it is agreed that Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 10.8(b), except that, although the Company, in its sole discretion, may, subject to the Willful Breach Requirements, determine its choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 10.8(b), under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 10.8(b) and any monetary damages.

(g) Non-Recourse Parent Party. Except for claims that the Company may assert (i) against any Person that is party to, and solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Confidentiality Agreement or (ii) against Parent or Merger Sub to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or the Sponsor to the extent expressly provided for in the Equity Commitment Letter, in no event will the Company seek or obtain, nor will it permit any of its Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or monetary award against any Non-Recourse Parent Party (as defined in the Equity Commitment Letter, which excludes, for the avoidance of doubt, the Sponsor, Parent and Merger Sub) with respect to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Offer, the Merger, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including any breach by the Sponsor, Parent or Merger Sub), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or any claims or actions under applicable Laws arising out of any such breach, termination or failure.

(h) Non-Recourse Company Party. Except for claims that Parent or Merger Sub may assert (i) against the Company to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or (ii) against any Person that is party to, and solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Tender and Support Agreements, in no event will Parent or Merger Sub or any Parent Related Parties seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or monetary award against any Company Related

Parties (other than the Company) with respect to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure.

9.4 Amendment. Subject to applicable Law and the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company (pursuant to authorized action by the Company Board (or a committee thereof)). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions relating to the Financing Sources set forth in Section 7.4(a), Section 10.3, Section 10.6, Section 10.10(b), Section 10.11 and this Section 9.4 (and the defined terms used therein) may not be amended, modified or altered without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

9.5 Extension; Waiver. At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, any Party may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, as applicable; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such Party in this Agreement; and (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party. Any delay in exercising any right pursuant to this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Each of Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Representatives will hold and treat all documents and information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries furnished or made available to Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Representatives in connection with the Merger in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. By executing this Agreement, each of Parent and Merger Sub agree to be bound by, and to cause their Representatives to be bound by, the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement as if they were parties thereto.

10.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter and the Equity Commitment Letter, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement will (a) not be superseded; (b) survive any termination of this Agreement; and (c) continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of the (i) Effective Time and (ii) date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

10.6 Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Section 7.9 and this Section 10.6, the Parties agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the other Parties in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to, and will not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies under this Agreement, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by Section 7.9; (b) if Sponsor, Parent or Merger Sub wrongfully terminates or willfully breaches this Agreement, then, following the termination of this Agreement, the Company, may seek damages and other relief (including equitable relief) on behalf of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Stock-Based Awards and Company Options (which Sponsor, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree may include damages based on a decrease in share value or lost premium) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3(e); (c) from and after the Acceptance Time, the rights of Company Stockholders who have validly tendered and not withdrawn their shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer to receive the Per Share Price set forth in Article II; and (d) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Stock-Based Awards and Company Options to receive the merger consideration set forth in Article III. The rights granted pursuant to clause (b) of the second sentence

of this Section 10.6 will only be enforceable on behalf of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Stock-Based Awards and Company Options by the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, as agent for such holders, and it is understood and agreed that any and all interests in such claims will attach to such shares of the Company Common Stock, Company Stock-Based Awards or Company Options and subsequently transfer therewith and, consequently, any damages, settlements or other amounts recovered or received by the Company with respect to such claims (net of expenses incurred by the Company in connection therewith and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3(e)) may, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, be (A) distributed, in whole or in part, by the Company to such holders as of any date determined by the Company; or (B) retained by the Company for the use and benefit of the Company in any manner that the Company deems fit. The provisions of Section 7.4(a), Section 9.4, Section 10.10(b), Section 10.11 and this Section 10.6 will inure to the benefit of the Financing Sources and their successors and assigns, each of whom are intended to be third-party beneficiaries thereof (it being understood and agreed that Section 7.4(a), Section 9.4, Section 10.10(b), Section 10.11 and this Section 10.6 will be enforceable by the Financing Sources and their respective successors and assigns).

10.7 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.8 Remedies.

(a) Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by this Agreement or by applicable Law on such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Although the Company may, subject to the Willful Breach Requirements, pursue both a grant of specific performance and monetary damages, under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and monetary damages (including any monetary damages in lieu of specific performance).

(b) Specific Performance.

(i) Irreparable Damage. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party failing to take such actions as are required of it by this Agreement in order to consummate the Offer or the Merger) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (A) the Parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms

and provisions of this Agreement (including specific performance or other equitable relief to cause Parent to perform any obligations of Parent hereunder to enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter); (B) the provisions of Section 9.3 are not intended to and do not adequately compensate the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (C) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of each of the Offer and the Merger and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement.

(ii) No Objections. The Parties agree not to raise any objections to (A) the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand (including specific performance or other equitable relief to cause Parent to perform any obligations of Parent hereunder to enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter); and (B) the specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants, obligations and agreements of the Parties pursuant to this Agreement (including specific performance or other equitable relief to cause Parent to perform any obligations of Parent hereunder to enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter). Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each Party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

10.9 Governing Law. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware.

10.10 Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) General Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process (whether inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts) in any Legal Proceeding relating to the Offer or the Merger, for and on behalf of itself or any of its properties or assets, in accordance with Section 10.2 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law, but nothing in this Section 10.10 will affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law; (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits itself and its properties and assets in any Legal Proceeding to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts in the event that any dispute or controversy arises out of this Agreement, the Offer or the Merger; (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any Chosen Court; (iv) agrees that any Legal Proceeding arising in connection with this Agreement, the Offer or the Merger will be brought, tried and determined only in the Chosen Courts; (v) waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts or that such Legal Proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; and (vi) agrees that it will not bring any Legal Proceeding relating to this Agreement, the Offer or the Merger in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each of Parent,

Merger Sub and the Company agrees that a final judgment in any Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts will be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

(b) Jurisdiction for Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parties acknowledges and irrevocably agrees (i) that any Legal Proceeding, whether at law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources arising out of, or relating to, the Merger, the Debt Financing or the performance of services thereunder or related thereto will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York in the borough of Manhattan and any appellate court thereof, and each Party hereto submits for itself and its property with respect to any such Legal Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court; (ii) not to bring or permit any of their Affiliates to bring or support anyone else in bringing any such Legal Proceeding in any other court; (iii) that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to them at their respective addresses provided in any applicable debt commitment letter will be effective service of process against them for any such Legal Proceeding brought in any such court; (iv) to waive and hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which any of them may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such Legal Proceeding in any such court; and (v) any such Legal Proceeding will be governed and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York.

10.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS CONDUCT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OFFER, THE MERGER, THE EQUITY COMMITMENT LETTER, THE DEBT FINANCING OR THE EQUITY FINANCING (INCLUDING ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING OR AGAINST THE FINANCING SOURCES). EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (a) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (b) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (c) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (d) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.11.

10.12 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by fax or .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpg or similar attachment to electronic

mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party may raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

10.13 No Limitation. It is the intention of the Parties that, to the extent possible, unless provisions are mutually exclusive and effect cannot be given to both or all such provisions, (a) the representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions in this Agreement will be construed to be cumulative; (b) each representation, warranty, covenant and closing condition in this Agreement will be given full, separate and independent effect; and (c) nothing set forth in any provision in this Agreement will (except to the extent expressly stated) in any way be deemed to limit the scope, applicability or effect of any other provision of this Agreement.

This TENDER AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 17, 2017, is by and among Sizmek Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Fuel Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and each of the Persons set forth on Schedule A hereto (each, a “Stockholder”).

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Stockholder (i) is the record or beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”), of Rocket Fuel Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A (all such shares set forth on Schedule A, together with any shares of Company Common Stock that are hereafter issued to or otherwise acquired or owned by any Stockholder prior to the termination of this Agreement being referred to herein as the “Subject Shares”) and (ii) directly or indirectly owns the number of Company Options set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A;

WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have required that each Stockholder, and as an inducement and in consideration therefor, each Stockholder (in such Stockholder’s capacity as a holder of the Subject Shares and, if applicable, Company Options) has agreed to, enter into this Agreement.
