(ii) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Company Option that is not set forth on Schedule 2.7(f)(i) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. Holders of Unvested Company Options that are terminated and cancelled pursuant to this Section 2.7(f)(ii) shall be entitled to receive the payment of cash consideration, less applicable Tax withholding, in exchange for the cancellation of such options in connection with the consummation of the First Step Merger as set forth in Schedule 2.7(f)(ii) (such cash consideration, the “Unvested Option Cashout”). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each such holder an executed Option Cancellation Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (an “Option Cancellation Agreement”). To the extent that, Parent, the Interim Surviving Entity or the Final Surviving Entity pays to the Holders of Unvested Options pursuant to such holder’s Option Cancellation Agreement following the Effective Time such portion of the Unvested Option Cashout not paid by the Company prior to the Effective Time, such portion of the Unvested Option Cashout so payable by Parent, the Interim Surviving Entity or the Final Surviving Entity (together with any employer-side Tax obligations attributed thereto) shall be deemed to be Change of Control Fees.

(iii) Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to the review and approval of Parent, the Company shall take all actions necessary to effect the transactions anticipated by Section 2.7(f)(i) and 2.7(f)(ii) under the Plan and all Company Option agreements and any other applicable plan or arrangement of the Company (whether written or oral, formal or informal), including adopting all resolutions and giving all requisite notices to each holder of Company Options. Materials to be submitted to the holders of Company Options in connection with any notice required under this Section 2.7(f)(iii) shall be subject to review and approval by Parent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

(g) Treatment of Company Warrants. No outstanding Company Warrants, if any, shall be assumed by Parent, and the Company shall cause each such Company Warrant to be either (i) exercised by the

17

holder of such Company Warrant in full or (ii) to the extent not exercised in full, terminated, cancelled or automatically converted into shares of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock as of immediately prior to the Closing, either pursuant to its terms or pursuant to an agreement with the holder thereof.

(h) Tax Consequences. No party hereto shall take any action, or fail to take any action (including after the Closing Date), which is inconsistent with the intent that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization,” unless required by any applicable legal requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent makes no representations or warranties to the Company or to any holder of Company Capital Stock regarding the Tax treatment of the Merger, or any of the Tax consequences to the Company or any holder of Company Capital Stock of this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions or agreements contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that the Company and the holders of Company Capital Stock are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions and agreements contemplated hereby.

(i) Withholding of Taxes. The Company, Parent, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Final Surviving Entity and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Capital Stock, a Company Option or a Company Warrant such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(j) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the First Step Merger, but in lieu thereof, each Company Securityholder that would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall, upon surrender of such holder’s Company Stock Certificate(s) or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and bond, if required) in the manner provided in Section 2.14, receive from Parent an amount of cash (rounded up to the nearest whole cent), without interest, less the amount of any withholding Taxes as contemplated by Section 2.7(g) which are required to be withheld with respect thereto, equal to the product of: (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the Closing Price.

2.8 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Capital Stock held by a Company Shareholder who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such Company Shareholder’s dissenters’ rights under applicable Law (any such shares, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration for such Company Shareholder’s shares of Company Capital Stock set forth in Section 2.7, but in lieu thereof, such Company Shareholder shall be entitled to such rights as are provided by applicable Law.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.8(a), if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s dissenters’ rights under applicable Law, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration for Company Capital Stock, as applicable, set forth in Section 2.7 and upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10.

(c) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demand for dissenters’ rights or other payment received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of applicable Law, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to any such demands or offer to settle or settle any such

18

demands. Any written communication to be made by the Company to any Company Shareholder with respect to such demands shall be submitted to Parent in advance and shall not be presented to any Company Shareholder prior to the Company receiving Parent’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Parent, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Final Surviving Entity or the Company (i) makes any payment or payments in respect of any Dissenting Shares in excess of the value of the Merger Consideration that otherwise would have been payable in respect of such shares in accordance with this Agreement (except for cash payments paid by the Company (using the Company’s cash) in compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.8 prior to the Effective Time in respect thereof) or (ii) incurs any Losses (including attorneys’ and consultants’ fees, and out of pocket costs and expenses, and including any such fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending against or settling any action or proceeding) in respect of any Dissenting Shares (excluding payments for such shares and excluding any such Losses incurred and paid by the Company (using the Company’s cash) prior to the Effective Time) ((i) and (ii) together “Dissenting Share Payments”), Parent shall be entitled to recover, under the terms of Article VIII, the amount of such Dissenting Share Payments.

2.11 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Capital Stock. All consideration paid in respect of the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to be full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of Interim Surviving Entity of shares of Company Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Company Stock Certificates are presented to the Interim Surviving Entity or the Final Surviving Entity for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, Merger Subs, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Final Surviving Entity or any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of any shares of Company Capital Stock for any shares transferred or amounts paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. At any time following the last day of the six (6) month period following the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require its agent to deliver to Parent or its designated successor or assign all Merger Consideration that has been deposited with such agent pursuant to this Agreement, and not disbursed pursuant to Section 2.7, and thereafter the Company Shareholders shall be entitled to look only to Parent for their claims, as general creditors thereof, with respect to shares of Parent capital stock and any and all cash amounts that may be payable to such Persons pursuant to Section 2.7 or Section 2.10. No interest shall be payable for the cash amounts delivered to Parent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.12 and which are subsequently delivered to the Company Shareholders.

2.13 Transfers of Ownership. If any payments are to be made to a Person other than the Person whose name is reflected on the Company Stock Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor, it will be a condition of the issuance or delivery thereof that the certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment of any portion of the Merger Consideration in any name other than that of the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

2.14 Surrender of Company Stock Certificates; Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Company Stock Certificates. No portion of the Merger Consideration shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to shares of Company Capital Stock formerly represented thereby until the holder of record of such Company Stock Certificate shall have surrendered such Company Stock Certificate and the Exchange Documents pursuant hereto. In the event any Company Stock Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent or its agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such amount, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.7; provided, however, that Parent or its agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the Person who is the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to either (a) deliver a bond in such amount as it may reasonably direct, or (b) provide an indemnification agreement in a form and substance acceptable to Parent or its agent, against any Claim that may be made against Parent or its agent with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

23

amounts, shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Capital Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Company Capital Stock occurring or having a record date on or after the Agreement Date and prior to the Effective Time.

2.16 Further Assurances. 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 Interim Surviving Entity and after the Second Step Merger, the Final Surviving Entity, with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, Parent, Merger Subs, and the officers and directors of the Company, Parent and Merger Subs are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action.

The Company and Parent shall promptly advise the other in writing if at any time prior to the Closing the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall obtain knowledge of any facts that might make it necessary or appropriate to amend or supplement the Soliciting Materials in order to make statements contained or incorporated by reference therein not misleading or to comply with applicable Law; provided that Parent shall only be required to provide notice of any such facts to the extent such facts relate to information furnished in writing by Parent or Merger Subs for the express purposes of including in such Soliciting Materials; provided, further, that the Company shall only be required to provide notice to Parent of any such facts to the extent such facts relate to information included by the Company in the Soliciting Materials.

6.3 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall give prompt notice to the other of (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, the occurrence or non-occurrence of which is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of the Company or Parent, as the case may be, in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect at or prior to the Effective Time, and (b) any failure of the Company or Parent, as the case may be, to comply in all material respects with or satisfy in all material respects any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder; provided, however, that, unless otherwise agreed by Parent and the Company in writing, the delivery of any notice pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or this Section 6.3 shall not (x) limit or otherwise affect any remedies available to the party receiving such notice provided hereunder or (y) be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedule or prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant.

In this regard, the Company acknowledges that the Parent Common Stock is publicly traded and that any information obtained during the course of due diligence and negotiation of this Agreement and the Related Agreements could be considered to be material nonpublic information within the meaning of federal and state securities laws. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges and agrees not to engage in any discussions, correspondence or transactions regarding the Parent Common Stock in violation of applicable securities Laws. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Reciprocal Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, following Closing, the Shareholder Representative shall be permitted to disclose information as required by Law or to employees, advisors or consultants of the Shareholder Representative and to the Indemnifying Parties, in each case who have a need to know such information, provided that such persons either (a) agree to observe the terms of this Section 6.4 or (b) are bound by obligations of confidentiality to the Shareholder Representative of at least as high a standard as those imposed on the Shareholder Representative under this Section 6.4.

6.5 Public Disclosure. The Company shall not (nor will it permit the Company Representatives to) directly or indirectly issue any statement or communication to any third Person (other than their respective legal counsel, accountants or representatives that are bound by confidentiality restrictions) regarding the existence or subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including with respect to any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination hereof), without the consent of Parent; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Company may, subject to Parent’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), issue communications regarding the existence or subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to its Employees, customers and suppliers, as reasonably necessary for the Company to maintain its business relationships with such Persons or to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, (b) any information reasonably relevant for enforcing the Company’s rights or defending against assertions by Parent may be disclosed to any Governmental Entity or an arbitrator or other involved party (e.g., opposing counsel, expert witnesses, investigators) in connection with any legal proceedings involving a dispute between Parent and the Company, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination hereof or thereof, (c) unless otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, the Company Representatives may make statements to any third Person (but not public statements or announcements) to the extent that such information otherwise has been made public by Parent and (d) following the public announcement of the Merger, the Shareholder Representative may publicly announce the fact that it has been engaged to serve as the Shareholder Representative in connection with the Merger, provided that such announcement does not disclose any of the other terms of this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated herein. Parent shall not issue any statement or communication to any third Person (other than its representatives that are bound by confidentiality restrictions) regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including with respect to any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination hereof), without first providing the Company with an opportunity in advance to review and comment on such statement or communication, except that this restriction shall be subject to Parent’s and its Affiliates’ obligation to comply with applicable securities Laws and the rules of the NASDAQ Global Market and Parent may, after consultation with the Company, issue communications regarding the existence or subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to its Employees, customers and suppliers, as reasonably necessary for Parent to maintain its business relationships with such Persons or to comply with its obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and the Company have mutually agreed upon a joint press release for the announcement of the First Step Merger and this Agreement and related employee, customer and supplier communications (the “Communications Plan”) and the Company may issue such joint press release, and the Company and the Company Representatives may communicate with employees, customers and suppliers in accordance with such Communications Plan, provided, that Parent shall be entitled to make any changes to such press release or Communications Plan subject to the Company’s consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

The Company shall provide Parent with a statement of Estimated Third Party Expenses and an estimate of all Change of Control Fees showing detail of both the paid and unpaid Third Party Expenses and Change of Control Fees incurred by the Company as of the Closing Date, or anticipated to be incurred or payable by the Company after the Closing Date (the “Statement of Expenses”), at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and the Statement of Expenses shall be certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer as true, correct and complete as of the Closing Date.

6.11 Post-Closing Employee Matters. Parent or its Affiliates may offer certain U.S. Employees, including the Key Employees, employment by Parent, its Subsidiaries, the Interim Surviving Entity and/or the Final Surviving Entity as a Continuing Employee, to be effective as of the Closing Date, upon proof of a legal right to work in the United States (such employees offered such employment, the “Offered Employees”). Such employment will: (i) be set forth in offer letters on Parent’s standard form, (ii) be subject to and in compliance with Parent’s applicable policies and procedures, including employment background checks and the execution of Parent’s employee proprietary information agreement, governing employment conduct and performance, (iii) have terms, including the position and salary, which will be determined by Parent, (iv) include, if applicable, a waiver by the Employee of any future equity-based compensation to which such Employee may otherwise have been entitled, and (v) supersede any prior express or implied employment agreements, arrangement or offer letter in effect prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (iii), the offers provided to the Offered Employees shall provide for terms and conditions that maintain substantially (x) the aggregate economic value of the total cash compensation (including base salary, base hourly wage, target bonus and other cash-based incentive payments, but excluding equity compensation) of each Continuing Employee, and (y) the aggregate economic value of the benefits under the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements for the benefit of such Continuing Employee and his or her dependents and beneficiaries, in each case, as provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, so as to not implement any substantial aggregate reduction in the value of compensation, benefits, rights or entitlements during such period (the “Offered Terms”), and following the Closing Date, Parent shall or shall cause its Affiliate who is employing such Continuing Employee to maintain the Offered Terms. After the Effective Time, nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall prohibit Parent or its Affiliates from reducing or otherwise modifying any component of compensation or benefits of any Continuing Employee. Effective as of, and following, the Closing, to the extent permitted or required by applicable law, Parent or Affiliate will cause any employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements in which any Continuing Employee participates that is a health or welfare benefit plan (collectively, “Parent Welfare Plans”) to (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, requirements for insurability, exclusions and service conditions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents), (ii) honor any payments, charges and expenses of such Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) that were applied toward the deductible and out-of-pocket maximums under the corresponding Company Employee Plan in satisfying any applicable deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums or co-payments under a corresponding Parent Welfare Plan during the same plan year in which such payments, charges and expenses were made, and (iii) with respect to any medical plan, waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a Continuing Employee following the Closing. No Continuing Employee or other current or former employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries, including any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any other Person not a party to this Agreement, shall be entitled to assert any claim hereunder and nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as limiting the power of the Parent or its Affiliates to amend or terminate any particular employee benefit plan, program, agreement or policy, or interpreted as requiring the Company or Parent or any of their Affiliates to continue the employment of any Continuing Employee for any period of time.

65

6.12 Termination of Certain Benefit Plans.

Effective as of no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company and any ERISA Affiliate shall terminate any and all group severance, separation or salary continuation plans, programs or arrangements and any and all Company Employee Plans intended to include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement (each, a “401(k) Plan”) (unless Parent provides written notice to the Company that such 401(k) plans shall not be terminated).

The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company Employee Plans as Parent may reasonably require. In the event that termination of a 401(k) Plan would reasonably be anticipated to trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees, then such charges and/or fees shall be included in Third Party Expenses and shall be the responsibility of the Company, and the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to reasonably estimate the amount of such charges and/or fees and provide such estimate in writing to Parent no later than seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

At Parent’s request, the Company shall purchase such Tail Policy prior to the Closing Date, and the Company and Parent shall each contribute fifty percent (50%) of any payments with respect to such Tail Policy; provided, however, that to the extent any payments payable by the Company with respect to such Tail Policy have not been paid by the Company prior to the Closing, then such payments shall be deemed Third Party Expenses or Excess Third Party Expenses, as the case may be.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.23 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by the Company Indemnitees (it being expressly agreed that the Company Indemnitees shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.23).

The date of delivery of a Claim Certificate is referred to herein as the “Claim Date” of such Claim Certificate (and the claims for indemnification set forth therein).

(b) Objecting a Claim for Indemnification; Objection Notice.

(i) Following its receipt of a Claim Certificate, the Shareholder Representative (or in the case of a claim directly against one or more Indemnifying Party or Parties, such Indemnifying Party or Parties) may object to any item(s) or amount(s) set forth therein by delivering written notice thereof (an “Objection Notice”) to the Indemnified Party or Parties submitting such Claim Certificate at the addresses of such Indemnified Party or Parties set forth in such Claim Certificate, with a copy to the Escrow Agent (if and to the extent that the Indemnified Party or Parties are seeking recourse against the Escrow Fund); provided that to be effective such Objection Notice must (i) be delivered to the Indemnified Party or Parties (and, in the case of a claim for recourse against the Escrow Fund, to the Escrow Agent) prior to 5:00 p.m. California time on the forty-fifth (45^th) calendar day following the Claim Date of the Claim Certificate (such deadline, the “Objection Deadline” for such Claim Certificate and the claims for indemnification set forth therein) and (ii) set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the objections to the claims in the Claim Certificate in respect of which the objection is made.

78

(ii) If the Shareholder Representative (or the Indemnifying Party or Parties, if indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from such Indemnifying Party or Parties) does not object as provided in Section 8.5(b)(i) to any item or amount set forth in an Claim Certificate prior to the Objection Deadline for such Claim Certificate, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgement by the Shareholder Representative (or the Indemnifying Party or Parties, if indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from such Indemnifying Party or Parties) that the Indemnified Party or Parties is entitled to the full amount of the claims for Losses set forth in such Claim Certificate (and such entitlement shall be conclusively and irrefutably established) with respect to the Indemnifying Party or Parties against whom indemnification has been sought (any such claim, an “Unobjected Claim”).

(iii) With respect to an Unobjected Claim against the Escrow Fund, promptly following the Objection Deadline for the Claim Certificate, the Escrow Agent shall promptly release from the Escrow Fund and deliver to any Indemnified Party or Parties that have previously delivered such Claim Certificate an amount equal to the amount of Losses set forth in such Unobjected Claim. With respect to an Unobjected Claim for which the Indemnifying Party or Parties are directly liable beyond the Escrow Fund hereunder, within thirty (30) days of a claim becoming an Unobjected Claim, the applicable Indemnifying Party or Parties shall make the applicable payment to such Indemnified Party or Parties, subject to Section 8.3, Section 8.4 and Section 8.7.

(c) Resolution of Conflicts.

(i) In case the Shareholder Representative (or the Indemnifying Party or Parties in the case of a claim for indemnification sought directly from an Indemnifying Party or Parties) timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 8.5(b)(i), the Shareholder Representative (or such objecting Indemnifying Party or Parties) and Parent (for itself and on behalf of any other Indemnified Party) shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties and to resolve objections in the Objection Notice with respect to each of such claims. Either party may, but shall not be obligated to, initiate non-binding mediation of the dispute with the assistance of a neutral arbitrator belonging to and under the rules of the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution. The party requesting the mediation shall arrange for mediation services, subject to the approval of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mediation shall take place in Santa Xxxxx County, California during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable advance notice. Mediation may be scheduled to begin at any time, but with at least ten (10) Business Days’ written notice to all parties. If one party initiates mediation, the parties (A) shall participate in the mediation in good faith and shall devote reasonable time and energy to the mediation so as to promptly resolve the dispute or conclude that they cannot resolve the dispute and (B) shall not pursue other remedies while such mediation is proceeding. If the Shareholder Representative (or the objecting Indemnifying Parties) and Parent reach an agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, in the case of a claim against the Escrow Fund, shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent and, in the case of a claim directly against the Indemnifying Parties, to the Indemnifying Parties. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(ii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation (and, if applicable, mediation) prior to ninety (90) days following the date an Objection Notice is deemed properly delivered, given and received pursuant to Section 10.1, either Parent or the Shareholder Representative (or the objecting Indemnifying Party or Parties) may bring suit in the courts identified in Section 10.8 to resolve the matter. The decision of the trial court as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Claim Certificate shall be nonappealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and the Escrow Agent shall distribute the amounts from the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Judgment upon any award rendered by the trial court may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

79

8.6 Third-Party Claims. In the event that any Indemnified Party or Parties become aware of a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) which such Indemnified Party or Parties in good faith believes may result in an Indemnification Claim, such Indemnified Party or Parties shall as promptly as practicable notify the Shareholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party or Parties, such Indemnifying Party or Parties) of such claim. The Shareholder Representative shall be entitled on behalf of the Indemnifying Party or Parties (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party or Parties, such Indemnifying Party or Parties shall be entitled), at its or their expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Shareholder Representative shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Party and Parent shall keep the Shareholder Representative reasonably informed and updated as to the status of the Third Party Claim at all times pending resolution thereof. The failure to so notify the Shareholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party or Parties, such Indemnifying Party or Parties) of the commencement of any such Claim will relieve the Indemnifying Parties from liability in connection therewith only if and to the extent that such failure materially and adversely affects the ability of the Indemnifying Parties to defend their interests in such Claim. The Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of the Shareholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party or Parties, such Indemnifying Party or Parties), no settlement of any such Third Party Claim shall be determinative of (i) the amount of Losses relating to such matter, or (ii) unless otherwise previously agreed in writing by the Shareholder Representative, the existence of an Indemnifiable Matter. In the event that the Shareholder Representative has consented to any such settlement with respect to an Indemnification Claim under Section 8.2(a), the Indemnifying Party or Parties shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VIII to the amount of any Third Party Claim by the Indemnified Party or Parties against the Escrow Fund or against the Indemnifying Party or Parties directly, as the case may be, with respect to such settlement. In the event that the Shareholder Representative has not consented to any such settlement or indicates that it will not consent to such settlement, in each case within five (5) Business Days following the date the Shareholder Representative was provided notice of the settlement, the Shareholder Representative shall give the Indemnified Parties written notice specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the objections to such settlement (a “Settlement Objection”) by the end of such five (5) Business Day period. Unless Parent believes that Parent or any of the Indemnified Parties would be materially prejudiced by the failure to settle within thirty (30) days, in which case Parent shall notify the Shareholder Representative and attempt in good faith to resolve any disputes with the Shareholder Representative regarding the Settlement Objection prior to the failure to settle such Third Party Claim becoming materially prejudicial, the Indemnified Parties shall not enter into any settlement with respect to the relevant matter for a period of thirty (30) days from the date that the Shareholder Representative delivers the Settlement Objection to the Indemnified Party or Parties (the “Stand-down Period”), and during the Stand-down Period, the Shareholder Representative and the Indemnified Parties shall discuss the terms of such settlement in good faith and shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties and to resolve the objections in the Settlement Objection with respect to such settlement.

8.7 Escrow Arrangements.

(a) Escrow Fund. By virtue of this Agreement and as partial security for the Indemnified Party or Parties under Section 8.2(a), at the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the Escrow Amount without any act of the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with Section 2.10(a) such deposit of the Escrow Amount to constitute an escrow fund to be governed by the terms set forth herein. The Escrow Amount (collectively, the “Escrow Fund”) shall be available to compensate the Indemnified Party or Parties for any claims by such parties for any Losses paid, incurred or sustained by them and for which they are entitled to recovery under this Article VIII. The Escrow Agent may execute this Agreement following the Agreement Date and prior to the Closing, and such later execution, if so executed after the Agreement Date, shall not affect the binding nature of this Agreement as of the Agreement Date between the other signatories hereto.

80

(b) Distribution of Escrow Fund.

(i) Subject to the following requirements, the Escrow Fund shall be in existence immediately following the Effective Time and shall terminate at 11:59 p.m., California time, on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the “Escrow Period”).

(ii) On the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to (A) retain in the Escrow Fund an amount of Parent Common Stock (valued at the Closing Price) or cash, if applicable, equal to the Subsequent Escrow Amount, which Subsequent Escrow Amount shall remain a part of the Escrow Fund and (B) distribute any Parent Common Stock or cash, as the case may be, remaining in the Escrow Fund (after setting aside an amount of Parent Common Stock (valued at the Closing Price) or cash, as the case may be, equal to the Subsequent Escrow Amount) to the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with such Indemnifying Parties’ respective Pro-Rata Portions.

(iii) Within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Escrow Period, Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute any Parent Common Stock or cash, as the case may be, remaining in the Escrow Fund to the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with their respective Pro-Rata Portions following such termination as provided in Section 8.7(b)(v); provided, however, that the Escrow Fund shall not terminate, and the Escrow Agent shall not disburse any shares of Parent Common Stock or cash, as the case may be, from the Escrow Fund with respect to any amount in respect of any unsatisfied claims specified in any Claim Certificate in accordance with Section 8.2 (“Unresolved Claims”) delivered prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period with respect to facts and circumstances existing prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, and any such amount shall not be distributed to the Indemnifying Party or Parties at such time and shall remain in the Escrow Fund until such Unresolved Claims have been resolved or satisfied pursuant to this Article VIII.

(iv) Promptly following such time as all claims for indemnification for Indemnification Matters under Section 8.2(a)(ix) have been fully resolved, Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute to the Indemnifying Parties an amount equal to the Additional Escrow Amount minus the amount of all Losses of the Indemnified Parties with respect to Indemnification Matters under Section 8.2(a)(ix). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Additional Escrow Amount may be distributed to the Indemnified Parties from the Escrow Fund only in connection with any Losses paid, incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Party or Parties, or any of them, directly or indirectly, as a result of, arising out of or in connection with Indemnifiable Matters under Section 8.2(a)(ix) and (B) the existence, availability or unavailability of the Additional Escrow Amount as part of the Escrow Fund shall not impair or alter Parent’s ability to seek recourse to the remainder of the Escrow Fund in connection with such Indemnifiable Matters under Section 8.2(a)(ix) or otherwise.

(v) As soon as all such claims have been resolved, Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver the remaining portion of the Escrow Fund, if any, not required to satisfy such Unresolved Claims, (A) first, to the Shareholder Representative for any Shareholder Representative Expenses, and (B) second, to the Indemnifying Party or Parties. Deliveries of shares of Parent Common Stock or cash out of the Escrow Fund to the Indemnifying Party or Parties pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be made in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portions of the remaining amounts in the Escrow Fund, with the amount delivered to each Company Securityholder rounded to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) (with amounts 0.005 and above rounded up), in respect of cash and rounded down, to the nearest share, in respect of Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any property in the Escrow Fund deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any former holder of Company Capital Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law or under any applicable legal requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

81

(vi) For purposes of this Agreement, if the Escrow Fund consists of (A) shares of Parent Common Stock, the amount of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund to be returned to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any indemnifiable Losses, if any, shall equal the applicable amount of the Losses divided by the Closing Price and (B) cash, the amount of cash in the Escrow Fund to be returned to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any indemnifiable Losses, if any, shall equal the applicable amount of the Losses.

(c) Sale of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and Expense Escrow Fund.

(i) Within seven (7) days following the Closing Date, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to Parent written notice that it, on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties, has elected to either (A) direct the Escrow Agent to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund, with the net sale price of such sale being contributed directly to the Escrow Fund, or (B) hold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund until the release of the Escrow Fund in accordance with this Section 8.7. The Shareholder Representative hereby notifies Parent that immediately after the Closing it shall direct the Escrow Agent to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Expense Escrow Fund, with the net sale price of such sale being contributed directly to the Expense Escrow Fund.

(ii) In the event that the Shareholder Representative notifies Parent that the Shareholder Representative is making the election described in Section 8.7(c)(i)(A) above, then within seven (7) days following the Closing Date, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a written notice in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (an “Escrow Sale Instruction Letter”) that the Shareholder Representative has elected to direct the Escrow Agent to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund. As part of the same Escrow Sale Instruction Letter with respect to such sale of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund, or pursuant to a separate Escrow Sale Instruction Letter which the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent within seven (7) days following the Closing Date, the Shareholder Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to sell all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Expense Escrow Fund.

(iii) If Parent or the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall not receive notice from the Shareholder Representative delivered pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.7(c)(i) or Section 8.7(c)(ii), as applicable, within the time period set forth therein, then the Shareholder Representative (on behalf of itself and the Indemnifying Parties) shall have irrevocably waived its right to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and/or the Expense Escrow Fund prior to the disbursement of such shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(iv) If the Shareholder Representative notifies Parent of its election to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 8.7(c)(i) and delivers an Escrow Sale Instruction Letter to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 8.7(c)(ii) within the time period set forth therein, the Escrow Agent shall cause all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and in the Expense Escrow Fund to be sold as promptly as practicable, with the net sales price realized from such sale (but no additional consideration) being contributed directly to the Escrow Fund, or the Expense Escrow Fund, as applicable.

(v) In the event that any shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund or Expense Escrow Fund are sold at a price below the Closing Price, in compliance with this Section 8.7(c): (A) neither the Shareholder Representative nor any of the Indemnifying Parties shall have any liability to any Indemnified Party or to the Indemnifying Parties as a result of such sale below the Closing Price, and (B) neither Parent, Escrow Agent or any Indemnified Party shall have any liability to any Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties as a result of such sale below the Closing Price.

82

(d) Protection of Escrow Fund and Expense Escrow Fund.

(i) The Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Escrow Fund and the Expense Escrow Fund during the Escrow Period, shall treat such funds as trust funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall hold and dispose of (A) the Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII and Section 2.10 and (B) the Expense Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of Section 8.8.

(ii) If the Escrow Fund or Expense Escrow Fund includes cash, such cash shall be invested in U.S. Treasury bills with maturities of not more than ninety (90) days and any interest paid on such cash shall be added to the Escrow Fund or Expense Escrow Fund, as the case may be, and become a part thereof. For any period of time before such U.S. Treasury bills can be purchased by the Escrow Agent or after such bills mature, the cash, if any, in the Escrow Fund and/or the Expense Escrow Fund, if any, shall be invested in a U.S. Bank money market deposit account, as fully described on the attached Exhibit K and any interest paid on such cash shall be added to the Escrow Fund and/or the Expense Escrow Fund, as the case may be, and become a part thereof and available for satisfaction of claims, in the case of the Escrow Fund, and available for satisfaction of Shareholder Representative Expenses, in the case of the Expense Escrow Fund. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability for any investment losses including without any limitation any market loss for any investment liquidated prior to maturity in order to make a payment required hereunder. Should the Escrow Agent be directed by the Shareholder Representative under Section 8.7(c) to sell shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and the Expense Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent shall be fully protected in acting upon such instructions provided by the Shareholder Representative in executing such trade(s). The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any loss in the event that any shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and/or the Expense Escrow Fund are sold at a price below the Closing Price.

(e) Tax Reporting.

(i) For all U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax reporting and withholding purposes the Indemnifying Parties shall not be treated as having received or contributed any portion of the Escrow Amount, or as owners of any portion of the Escrow Amount, including any interest or other income or gains from investment of the Escrow Amount, until it is released and distributed to them. Parent shall be treated as the owner of the Escrow Fund for tax purposes and shall report any income earned by the Escrow Fund, until the Escrow Fund, if any, is distributed to the Indemnifying Parties. Any amounts released to the Indemnifying Parties from the Escrow Fund shall be (A) treated as additional consideration paid pursuant to this Agreement, and (B) composed of an interest element and a principal element, the interest element to be computed and reported in accordance with the imputed interest rules of the Code and which Parent shall provide to the Escrow Agent prior to each distribution from the Escrow Fund. Each of Parent and, prior to the Closing, the Company and, after the Closing, the Shareholder Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Indemnifying Party to provide to the Escrow Agent any necessary Tax forms, including Form W-9 or the appropriate series of Form W-8, as applicable, (which must be originally executed) or any similar form requested by the Escrow Agent; provided, that the Escrow Agent shall rely upon (and obtain copies from Parent as necessary, to the extent Parent has received such forms prior to the Closing) all tax forms used and collected by Parent in connection with Closing payments pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii).

(ii) The Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes it deems appropriate in the absence of proper tax documentation or as required by law, and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities. The Company hereby represent and warrants to the Escrow Agent that (A) there is no sale or transfer of an United States Real Property Interest as defined under IRC Section 897(c) in the underlying transaction giving rise to this Agreement; and (B), except as provided in the Spreadsheet, no Indemnifying Party is subject to withholding on payments made in connection with the Merger, other than backup withholding on failure to provide any required tax documentation. The Indemnifying Parties agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from any liability or obligation on account of taxes, assessments, additions for late payment, interest, penalties, expenses and other governmental charges that may be assessed or asserted against the Escrow Agent in connection with or relating to any payment made or other activities performed under the terms of this

83

Agreement, including without limitation any liability for the withholding or deduction of (or the failure to withhold or deduct) the same, and any liability for failure to obtain proper certifications or to report properly to governmental authorities in connection with this Agreement, including costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), interest and penalties, except to the extent such amounts relate to the Escrow Agent’s fraud or gross negligence, failure to withhold, or failure to perform any backup withholding. The foregoing indemnification and agreement to hold harmless shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(iii) Parent shall make an affirmative communication to the Escrow Agent if the securities being exchanged, redeemed, or sold are classified as “Covered Securities” under the Internal Revenue Service Cost Basis Reporting regulations.

(iv) If such securities are classified as “Covered Securities,” Parent is responsible for providing the required information to the Escrow Agent for sending accurate and complete Form 1099-B information to the Company Securityholders. The required information shall be each Company Shareholder’s date of acquisition and each Company Shareholder’s cost basis of the applicable security, and any such other information that the Escrow Agent may request to be in compliance with the IRS 1099-B reporting regulations under the Internal Revenue Code. The information shall be provided timely to Escrow Agent so it can meet its obligations to send Form 1099-B information to the applicable Company Shareholders and the IRS by the applicable reporting deadlines.

(v) The parties acknowledge that, for tax reporting purposes, all interest attributable to the Expense Escrow Amount, and interest thereon, held in the Expense Escrow Fund shall be allocable to the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with each Holder’s respective Pro Rata Share of the Expense Escrow Fund.

(f) Escrow Agent’s Duties.

(i) The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein, and as set forth in any additional written escrow instructions which the Escrow Agent may receive after the Agreement Date which are signed by an officer of Parent, and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Escrow Agent while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of legal counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

(ii) The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other Person, excepting only orders or process of courts of law, and is hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court, awards of arbitrators and written instructions of Parent. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment or decree of any court, award of arbitrator or instructions, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other Person by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment, decree or award being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.

(iii) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

(iv) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for the expiration of any rights under any statute of limitations with respect to this Agreement or any documents deposited with the Escrow Agent.

84

(v) In performing any duties under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any party for damages, losses or expenses, except as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not incur any such liability for (A) any act or failure to act made or omitted in good faith, or (B) any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any instrument, including any written statement or affidavit provided for in this Agreement that the Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, nor will the Escrow Agent be liable or responsible for forgeries, fraud, impersonations, or determining the scope of any representative authority. In addition, the Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel in connection with performing the Escrow Agent’s duties under this Agreement and shall be fully protected in any act taken, suffered, or permitted by him/her in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel. The Escrow Agent is not responsible for determining and verifying the authority of any person acting or purporting to act on behalf of any party to this Agreement.

(vi) If any controversy arises between the parties to this Agreement, or with any other party, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, its terms or conditions, the Escrow Agent will not be required to determine the controversy or to take any action regarding it. The Escrow Agent may hold all documents and the Escrow Fund and may wait for settlement of any such controversy by final appropriate legal proceedings or other means as, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion, may be required, despite what may be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. In such event, the Escrow Agent will not be liable for damages. Furthermore, the Escrow Agent may, at its option, file an action of interpleader requiring the parties to answer and litigate any claims and rights among themselves. The Escrow Agent is authorized to deposit with the clerk of the court all documents and the Escrow Amounts held in escrow, except all costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Escrow Agent due to the interpleader action (the “Agent Interpleader Expenses”) and which the parties agree to pay as follows: 50% to be paid by Parent and 50% to be paid by the Indemnifying Parties on the basis of the Indemnifying Parties’ respective Pro Rata Portions; provided, however, that in the event any Indemnifying Party fails to timely pay his or her Pro Rata Portion of the Agent Interpleader Expenses, the parties agree that Parent may at its option pay such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Portion of the Agent Interpleader Expenses and recover an amount equal from such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Fund. Upon initiating such action, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all obligations and liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement.

(vii) Parent and the Indemnifying Parties and their respective successors and assigns agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation, counsel fees, including allocated costs of in house counsel and disbursements that may be imposed on Escrow Agent or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of his/her duties under this Agreement, including any litigation arising from this Agreement or involving its subject matter, other than those arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent (the “Agent Indemnification Expenses”) as follows: 50% to be paid by Parent and 50% to be paid by the Indemnifying Parties on the basis of each Indemnifying Party’s respective Pro Rata Portions; provided, however, that in the event any Indemnifying Party fails to timely pay his or her Pro Rata Portion of the Agent Indemnification Expenses, the parties agree that Parent may at its option pay such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Portion of the Agent Indemnification Expenses and recover an amount equal from such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Fund.

(viii) The Escrow Agent may resign at any time upon giving at least thirty (30) days written notice to Parent; provided, however, that no such resignation shall become effective until the appointment of a successor escrow agent by Parent, subject to the consent of the Shareholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The successor escrow agent shall execute and deliver an instrument accepting such appointment, and it shall, without further acts, be vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named as escrow agent. Upon appointment of a successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from any further duties and liability under this Agreement.

85

(g) Fees. The Company and Parent shall each contribute fifty percent (50%) of all fees of the Escrow Agent for performance of its duties hereunder in accordance with the standard fee schedule of the Escrow Agent; provided, however, that to the extent any such fees payable by the Company have not been paid by the Company prior to with the Closing, then such fees shall be deemed Third Party Expenses or Excess Third Party Expenses, as the case may be. It is understood that the fees and usual charges agreed upon for services of the Escrow Agent shall be considered compensation for ordinary services as contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that the conditions of this Agreement are not promptly fulfilled, or if the Escrow Agent renders any service not provided for in this Agreement but that has been requested by an officer of Parent, or if the parties request a substantial modification of the terms of this Agreement, or if any controversy arises, or if the Escrow Agent is made a party to, or intervenes in, any litigation pertaining to the Escrow Fund or its subject matter, the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs, attorney’s fees, including allocated costs of in house counsel, and expenses occasioned by such default, delay, controversy or litigation.

(h) Successor Escrow Agents. Any corporation into which the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity shall be a party, or any corporation to which substantially all the corporate trust business of the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without further act.

8.8 Shareholder Representative.

(a) By virtue of the approval of the First Step Merger and this Agreement by the Indemnifying Parties, each of the Indemnifying Parties shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint Shareholder Representative Services LLC as its agent and attorney-in-fact, as the Shareholder Representative with full power and authority to act for and on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties to give and receive notices and communications, to direct the Escrow Agent to cause to be sold all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and the Expense Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 8.7(c), to authorize payment to any Indemnified Party or Parties from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims by such Indemnified Party or Parties pursuant to Section 8.2(a), to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and request mediation as provided in this Agreement and comply with orders of courts and awards of mediators with respect to such claims, to assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and request mediation and comply with orders of courts and awards of mediators with respect to, any other claim by any Indemnified Party or Parties against any Indemnifying Party or by any such Indemnifying Party against any Indemnified Party or Parties or any dispute between any Indemnified Party or Parties and any such Indemnifying Party, to authorize the sale of all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow Fund and deliver an Escrow Sale Instruction Letter to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 8.7(c)(i), and to execute all such documents necessary or appropriate in the sole opinion of the Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. The Shareholder Representative may resign at any time. Such agency may be changed by the Indemnifying Parties from time to time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Parent; provided, however, that the Shareholder Representative may not be removed unless holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a vacancy in the position of Shareholder Representative may be filled by the vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. No bond shall be required of the Shareholder Representative. After the Closing, notices or communications to or from the Shareholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Indemnifying Parties.

(b) The Expense Escrow Amount (collectively, with any interest accrued thereon, the “Expense Escrow Fund”) shall be available to pay directly, or reimburse the Shareholder Representative for,

86

Shareholder Representative Expenses (as defined in Section 8.8(c) below) that are incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Shareholder Representative and that arise out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Shareholder Representative’s duties hereunder. From time to time prior to the end of the Escrow Period, the Shareholder Representative may deliver a written certificate (a “Shareholder Representative Certificate”), signed by the Shareholder Representative, to the Escrow Agent (A) stating that the Shareholder Representative is entitled to be paid, or to be reimbursed, from amounts then available in the Expense Escrow Fund the aggregate amount of the Shareholder Representative Expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative that are set forth in the Shareholder Representative Certificate, and (B) certifying that all such Shareholder Representative Expenses set forth in such Shareholder Representative Certificate were reasonably and actually incurred by the Shareholder Representative in connection with the administration of its duties and the fulfillment of its obligations under this Agreement. Each Shareholder Representative Certificate delivered by the Shareholder Representative to the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 8.8(b) shall contain a reasonably detailed description of all Shareholder Representative Expenses for which payment or reimbursement is sought by the Shareholder Representative. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for making any assessments of any Shareholder Representative Certificate and shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon its contents. Provided the Shareholder Representative Certificate delivered by the Shareholder Representative complies with the requirements set out in this Section 8.8(b), the Escrow Agent shall promptly distribute to or as directed by the Shareholder Representative, to the extent such amount is then available in the Expense Escrow Fund, the aggregate amount of the Shareholder Representative Expenses set forth in such Shareholder Representative Certificate.

(c) The Shareholder Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Shareholder Representative while acting in good faith and without gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify the Shareholder Representative and hold the Shareholder Representative harmless against any losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs or expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and all expenses with respect to document location, duplication and shipment) arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Shareholder Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Shareholder Representative (collectively, “Shareholder Representative Expenses”), in each case as such Shareholder Representative Expense is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Shareholder Representative Expense is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Shareholder Representative, the Shareholder Representative will reimburse the Indemnifying Parties the amount of such indemnified Shareholder Representative Expenses to the extent attributable to such bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Shareholder Representative by the Indemnifying Parties, any such Shareholder Representative Expenses shall be recovered by the Shareholder Representative from (i) funds in the Expense Escrow Fund and (ii) to the extent the funds in the Expense Escrow Fund are insufficient, if then available after satisfaction of all claims of an Indemnified Party or Parties, the amounts in the Escrow Fund prior to any distribution thereof to the Indemnifying Parties; provided, that while this section allows the Shareholder Representative to be paid from the Expense Escrow Fund and the Escrow Fund, this does not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from their obligation to promptly pay such Shareholder Representative Expenses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Shareholder Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Shareholder Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties or otherwise. The Indemnifying Parties acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnities will survive the resignation or removal of the Shareholder Representative or the termination of this Agreement. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative, including an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3 and Section 9.4, shall constitute a decision of the Indemnifying Parties and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Indemnifying Parties; and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Indemnifying Parties. The Escrow Agent and Parent are hereby relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative.

87

(d) After the completion of the Shareholder Representative’s responsibilities, the Shareholder Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute any cash remaining in the Expense Escrow Fund to the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with such Indemnifying Parties’ respective Pro Rata Portions of the remaining amounts in the Escrow Fund, with the amount delivered to each Indemnifying Party rounded to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) (with amounts 0.005 and above rounded up).

10.2 Counterparts; Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. Any signature page delivered electronically or by facsimile (including transmission by Portable Document Format or other fixed image form) shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page. At the request of any party hereto, all parties hereto agree to execute an original of this Agreement as well as any facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction hereof.

10.3 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, the Reciprocal Confidentiality Agreement, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and

90

understandings both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; (b) are not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder, other than (i) the Indemnifying Parties with respect to the right to receive payments from the Escrow Fund, if any, (ii) the Indemnified Party or Parties with respect to the rights under Article VIII, and (iii) the Company Indemnitees with respect to their rights under Section 6.23, and (c) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that a Parent may assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder to its Affiliates, provided that Parent remains ultimately liable for all of Parent’s obligations hereunder.

10.4 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 hereto. 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.

10.5 Other Remedies. Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California as applied to agreements entered into and performed entirely in the State of California by residents thereof, without regard to any provisions thereof relating to conflicts of laws among different jurisdictions.

10.7 Consent to Jurisdiction. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5, each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any court within San Francisco County, State of California, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of California for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such process. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5, each party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts.

10.8 Dispute Resolution. Without limiting the other provisions of this Section 10.8, the parties hereto agree that any legal proceeding by or against any party hereto or with respect to or arising out of this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in any federal court in the U.S. District for the Northern District of California. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and to the appellate courts therefrom solely for the purposes of disputes arising under the this Agreement and not as a general submission to such jurisdiction or with respect to any other dispute, matter or claim whatsoever. The parties hereto irrevocably consent to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the delivery of copies thereof by overnight courier to the address for such party to which notices are deliverable hereunder. Any such service of process shall be effective upon delivery. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The parties hereto hereby waive any right to stay or dismiss any action or proceeding under or in connection with this Agreement brought before the foregoing courts on the basis of (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason, or that it or any of its property is immune from the above-described legal process, (ii) that such action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that venue for the action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, or (iii) any other defense that would hinder or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any party hereto is entitled pursuant to any final judgment of any court having jurisdiction.

10.9 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR

91

COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

10.10 USA Patriot Act Compliance. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Person who opens an account. For a non-individual Person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Escrow Agent will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. The Escrow Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation. The parties hereto each agree to provide all such information and documentation as to themselves as requested by Escrow Agent to ensure compliance with federal law.

10.11 Security Procedures.

(a) Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall each deliver to Escrow Agent a fully executed incumbency certificate naming the officers who have the authority to execute and amend this Agreement. Exhibit L names the authorized representatives who are authorized to provide disbursement instructions with respect to the Escrow Funds, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer or authorized representative. In the event funds transfer instructions are given, whether in writing or by facsimile, Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to one or more of the person or persons designated in Schedule 10.11 who is different from the person who gave the transfer instruction, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in a writing actually received and acknowledged by Escrow Agent. If Escrow Agent is unable to contact any of the authorized representatives identified, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of Parent’s or the Shareholder Representative’s (as applicable) authorized officers as prescribed on Purchaser’s banking resolutions which shall include the titles of treasurer or assistant treasurer for Parent. Escrow Agent and the beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer to Parent may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by Parent to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. Escrow Agent may apply any of the Escrow Fund for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number in a manner consistent with the written instructions from (i) Parent, to the extent that it relates to payments to Parent and/or (ii) the Shareholder Representative, to the extent that it relates to payments to the Shareholder Representative or the Indemnifying Parties. Parent and the Shareholder Representative each acknowledge that the security procedures set forth in this Section are commercially reasonable.

(b) Unless the Escrow Agent is otherwise instructed in writing by Parent, Parent acknowledges that the Escrow Agent is authorized to use the funds transfer instructions to disburse any funds due to Parent under this Agreement without a verifying call-back as set forth on Exhibit L.
