ARTICLE 1

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger and a Subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”). The Merger shall be effected pursuant to Section 251 of the DGCL and shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all of the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation, in each case, as provided under the DGCL.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without the necessity of further action by the Company or any other Person, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended so as to read in its entirety in the form of the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall provide that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall be AV Homes, Inc., the provisions of the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub relating to the incorporator of Merger Sub shall be omitted and such changes shall be made to comply with Section 5.8), and as so amended shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law. In addition, subject to Section 5.8, the Company and the Surviving Corporation shall take all necessary action such that, at the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended so as to read in its entirety as the bylaws of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, and as so amended shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

-2-

(c) At the Effective Time, the Company and the Surviving Corporation shall take all necessary action such that the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, or such other individuals designated by Parent as of the Effective Time, shall become the directors of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office, from and after the Effective Time, in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, from and after the Effective Time, shall continue as the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) If, at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding Equity Interests of the Company or Parent shall occur as a result of any reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, the Merger Consideration will be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

1.2 Closing and Effective Time of the Merger. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on the third (3rd) Business Day after satisfaction or waiver of all of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions at the Closing) (the “Closing Date”), at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Xxxxx & Xxxx, 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto; provided, however, that if the Marketing Period has not ended at the time of the satisfaction or waiver of all of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that are by their nature to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions at the Closing), the Closing shall occur instead on (a) the earlier to occur of (i) any Business Day during the Marketing Period, which date must be specified by Parent to the Company in writing not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to such date, and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the final day of the Marketing Period (as it may be extended pursuant to the definition of “Marketing Period”); or (b) such other date and time as agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as promptly as reasonably practicable on the Closing Date, or such other date and time to which Merger Sub and the Company may agree in writing, Merger Sub or the Company shall cause a certificate of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger shall have been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or such later date and time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger (such date and time at which the Merger becomes effective hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

ARTICLE 2

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES IN THE MERGER

2.1 Conversion of Securities. 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:

(a) Conversion of Company Shares. Subject to Section 2.1(c), each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than any Company Restricted Stock Award, any Dissenting Share and any Cancelled Share, shall be converted into the right to receive (i) in the case of a Company Share with respect to which an election to receive Parent Shares (a “Stock Election”) has been properly made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.8 (each, a “Stock Electing Share”), 0.9793 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c), the “Stock Election Consideration”); (ii) in the case of a Company Share with respect to which an election to receive cash (a “Cash Election”) has been properly made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.8 (each, a “Cash Electing Share”), $21.50 in cash, without interest (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c), the “Cash Election Consideration”); or (iii) in the case of a Company Share with respect to which an election to receive a mix of Parent Shares and cash (a “Mixed Election”) has been properly made and not revoked pursuant to Section 2.8, or with respect to which no election has been made (each, a “Mixed Consideration Share”), $12.64 in cash, without interest, and 0.4034 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares (the “Mixed Stock Consideration” and, together with the $12.64 in cash, without interest, the “Mixed Election Consideration”). From and after the Effective Time, all such Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each applicable holder of such Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor upon surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.2, including the right to receive, pursuant to Section 2.7, cash in lieu of fractional Parent Shares, if any, into which such Company Shares have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) (the “Fractional Share Consideration”), together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 2.2(f) (the “Dividend Consideration”).

(b) Merger Sub Equity Interests. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing the common stock of Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

-4-

(c) Proration. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Stock Election Consideration and the Cash Election Consideration shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.1(c):

(i) if the Cash Election Amount exceeds the Available Cash Election Amount, then the following consideration shall be paid in respect of each Cash Electing Share:

(A) an amount of cash equal to the product of (1) the Cash Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)) multiplied by (2) the greater of (a) a fraction, rounded to four (4) decimal places, the numerator of which is the Available Cash Election Amount and the denominator of which is the Cash Election Amount and (b) zero (0) (the amount calculated in clause (2) of this paragraph, the “Cash Fraction”); and

(ii) if the Available Cash Election Amount exceeds the Cash Election Amount, then the following consideration shall be paid in respect of each Stock Electing Share:

(A) an amount of cash equal to the result of (1) the amount of such excess divided by (2) the number of Stock Electing Shares; and

(B) a number of Parent Shares equal to the product of (1) the Stock Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)) multiplied by (2) a fraction, rounded to four (4) decimal places, the numerator of which is the difference between (a) the Cash Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)) and (b) the amount calculated in clause (A) of this paragraph and the denominator of which is the Cash Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)).

(d) Cancelled Shares. Each Company Share that is owned directly by the Company (or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company), Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cancelled Shares”) shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange for such cancellation and retirement.

2.2 Payment for Securities; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall designate a reputable U.S. bank or trust company to act as the exchange agent (the identity and terms of designation and appointment of which shall be subject to the reasonable prior approval of the Company) for purposes of effecting the payment of the Merger Consideration and the Fractional Share Consideration in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, the fees and expenses of the Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of Parent Shares issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a) in book-entry form equal to the

-5-

aggregate number of Parent Shares included in the Merger Consideration (excluding any fractional Parent Shares), and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of cash included in the Merger Consideration and the Fractional Share Consideration (such evidence of Parent Shares in book-entry form and cash amounts, including any Dividend Consideration, the “Exchange Fund”), in each case, for the sole benefit of the holders of Company Shares. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make delivery of the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. In the event the Exchange Fund shall at any time be insufficient to pay the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, Parent shall, or shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Exchange Agent in an amount that is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by Parent or Merger Sub, in its sole discretion, pending payment thereof by the Exchange Agent to the holders of the Company Shares; provided that any such investments shall be in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States government or any agency or instrumentality thereof, in commercial paper obligations rated A 1 or P 1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $5.0 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available). Earnings from such investments shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent or Merger Sub, and no part of such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of holders of Company Shares.

(b) Procedures for Surrender.

(i) Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Company Shares represented by certificates (the “Certificates”), which Company Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement: (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form as Parent and the Exchange Agent shall reasonably agree upon (a “Letter of Transmittal”) and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(e)) in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, the forms of which Letter of Transmittal and instructions shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Company prior to the Effective Time. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of the Certificate as provided in Section 2.2(e)) to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed in writing by Merger Sub, and upon delivery of a Letter of Transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Certificates, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, for each Company Share formerly represented by such Certificates (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as

-6-

provided in Section 2.5), and any Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If payment of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name any surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered and shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, as contemplated by this Agreement, except for Certificates representing Dissenting Shares, which shall represent the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Company Shares in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL.

(ii) Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of non-certificated Company Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall be required to deliver a Certificate or, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a). In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one (1) or more Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company whose Company Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, shall upon the Effective Time, in accordance with The Depository Trust Company’s customary procedures (including receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” (or such other evidence of transfer or surrender as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request)) and such other procedures as agreed by the Company, Parent, the Exchange Agent and The Depository Trust Company, be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver to The Depository Trust Company or its nominee, for the benefit of the holder of such Book-Entry Shares held through it, as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, in respect of each such Book-Entry Share the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, for each such Book-Entry Share (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.5) and such Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Book-Entry Shares not held through The Depository Trust Company (A) a Letter of Transmittal, which shall be in such form as Parent and the Exchange Agent shall reasonably agree upon and (B) instructions for returning such Letter of Transmittal in exchange for the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, the forms of which Letter of Transmittal and instructions shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Company prior to the Effective Time. Upon delivery of such Letter of

-7-

Transmittal, in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, the holder of such Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, for each such Book-Entry Share (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.5), and such Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Book-Entry Shares. Until paid or surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, as contemplated by this Agreement, except for Book-Entry Shares representing Dissenting Shares, which shall be deemed to represent the right to receive payment in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further recording or registration of transfers of Company Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shares, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, payable therefor upon the surrender thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article 2 shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares, except for Certificates and Book-Entry Shares representing Dissenting Shares, which shall represent the right to receive payment in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the applicable Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) made available to the Exchange Agent that remains unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Time will be returned to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any such holder who has not tendered its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.2(b) prior to such time shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) for delivery of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, in each case without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law, in respect of such holder’s surrender of its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.2(b). Any Merger Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration or Dividend Consideration, as applicable, remaining unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the

-8-

Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. None of the Surviving Corporation, the Company, Merger Sub, Parent or the Exchange Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent or affiliate of any of them, shall be liable to any Person in respect of any part of the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit, in customary form, reasonably acceptable to Parent (which shall contain an agreement in customary form to indemnify Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and their respective affiliates against any claim that may be made against Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or their respective affiliates on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such Certificates) of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(a), without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law. In addition, Merger Sub may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration and Dividend Consideration, as applicable, require the owner(s) of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in a reasonable sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(f) Dividends or Distributions with Respect to Parent Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to the Parent Shares issuable to such holder hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions, if any, shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu of such Certificate as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu of such Certificate as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and with a payment date prior to such surrender with respect to the Parent Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such Parent Shares.

2.3 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3), Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who is entitled to demand, and has properly demanded, appraisal for such Company Shares in accordance with, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (such Company Shares, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, Fractional Share

-9-

Consideration or the Dividend Consideration. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled and cease to exist, and the holders of Dissenting Shares shall only be entitled to the rights granted to them under the DGCL. If any such holder of Dissenting Shares fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses its right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL or other applicable Law, then such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into and shall be exchangeable, subject to compliance with the procedures in Section 2.2(b), solely for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration, as applicable, without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law.

2.4 Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each option to purchase a Company Share granted under any Company Equity Plan (each, a “Company Stock Option”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Cash Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to

Section 2.1(c)) over the exercise price per Company Share of such Company Stock Option and (ii) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each award in respect of a Company Share subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse restriction granted under a Company Equity Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company Restricted Stock Award”) shall be assumed by Parent and substituted with an award of restricted Parent Shares issued under a Parent Equity Plan (a “Parent Restricted Stock Award”) corresponding to a number of whole Parent Shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company Restricted Stock Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (assuming that any performance-based vesting conditions applicable to such Company Restricted Stock Award are fully achieved) and (ii) the Stock Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.1(c)). Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.4(b), each Parent Restricted Stock Award issued pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same vesting and acceleration of vesting terms and conditions (other than any performance-based vesting conditions) as, and other terms and conditions that are substantially similar to, those that applied to the corresponding Company Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each restricted stock unit award or deferred stock unit award in respect of Company Shares granted under a Company Equity Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company RSU Award” and, together with the Company Stock Options and the Company Restricted Stock Awards, the “Company Equity Awards”) and that is held by an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be assumed by Parent and substituted with a restricted stock unit award to be settled in Parent Shares issued under a Parent Equity Plan (a “Parent RSU Award”) corresponding to a number of whole Parent Shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number

-10-

of Company Shares underlying such Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (assuming that any performance-based vesting conditions applicable to such Company RSU Award are achieved at target levels) and (ii) the Stock Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.1(c)). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.4(c), each Parent RSU Award issued pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same vesting and acceleration of vesting terms and conditions (other than any performance-based vesting conditions) as, and other terms and conditions that are substantially similar to, those that applied to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each Company RSU Award held by a non-employee director of the Company shall fully vest (to the extent unvested) and shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive the Cash Election Consideration (before giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) in respect of each Company Share underlying such Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) The Surviving Corporation shall pay, through the Surviving Corporation’s standard payroll procedures, the cash amounts described in this Section 2.4, less applicable Tax withholdings, on the next regularly scheduled payroll date following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent that payment of the amounts described in this Section 2.4 with respect to Company Equity Awards that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code would otherwise cause the imposition of a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to make such payment at the earliest time permitted under the Company Equity Plan and applicable award agreement that would not result in the imposition of such Tax or penalty.

(f) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company or the compensation committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.4.

(g) At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent, the Parent Board or the compensation committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.4. At the Effective Time, Parent shall assume all the obligations of the Company with respect to the Company Restricted Stock Awards and Company RSU Awards that are converted into Parent Restricted Stock Awards and Parent RSU Awards, respectively, and the award agreements evidencing the grants thereof. Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of Parent Shares for delivery upon the vesting or settlement of the Parent Restricted Stock Awards and Parent RSU Awards in accordance with this Section 2.4. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, if and to the extent necessary to cause a sufficient number of Parent Shares to be registered and issuable under the Parent RSU Awards, Parent shall file a post-effective amendment to the Form S-4 or a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the Parent Shares subject to Parent RSU Awards and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such Parent RSU Awards remain outstanding.

2.5 Withholding Rights. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Company and the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts that Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Company or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any provision of applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.6 Further Actions. As of the Effective Time, the officers and directors of Parent and the Surviving Corporation will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

2.7 Fractional Shares. No fractional Parent Shares shall be issued in connection with the Merger, no certificate or scrip representing fractional Parent Shares shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Shares converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Share (after aggregating all shares represented by the Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender of any right thereto, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to the Fractional Share Consideration.

2.8 Election Procedures. Each holder of record of Company Shares (other than Cancelled Shares or Dissenting Shares) (each, a “Holder”) shall have the right, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 2, to submit an election on or prior to the Election Deadline in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.8.

(a) Each Holder may specify in a request made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.8 (an “Election”) (i) the number of Company Shares owned by such Holder with respect to which such Holder desires to make a Mixed Election, (ii) the number of such Company Shares with respect to which such Holder desires to make a Cash Election, (iii) the number of Company Shares owned by such Holder with respect to which such Holder desires to make a Stock Election and (iv) the particular shares for which such Holder desires to make any such election, and the order in which either such election is to apply to any such shares if the election is subject to proration under Section 2.1(c).

-12-

(b) The Company shall prepare a form of election reasonably acceptable to Parent (the “Form of Election”), which shall be mailed by the Company to Holders so as to permit such Holders to exercise their right to make an Election prior to the Election Deadline.

(c) The Company shall mail or cause to be mailed or delivered, as applicable, the Form of Election to Holders as of the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the anticipated Election Deadline. The Company shall make available one or more Forms of Election as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all Persons who become Holders during the period following the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting and prior to the Election Deadline.

(d) Any Election shall have been made properly only if the Exchange Agent shall have received, by the Election Deadline, a Form of Election properly completed and signed and accompanied by (i) the Certificates, if any, to which such Form of Election relates, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(e)), and (ii) in the case of Book-Entry Shares, any additional documents specified in the procedures set forth in the Form of Election. As used herein, unless otherwise agreed in advance by the parties, “Election Deadline” means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that the Parties shall agree is as near as practicable to two (2) Business Days preceding the Closing Date.

(e) Any Holder may, at any time prior to the Election Deadline, change or revoke such Holder’s Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Form of Election or by withdrawal prior to the Election Deadline of such Holder’s Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(e)), or any documents in respect of Book-Entry Shares, previously deposited with the Exchange Agent. After an Election is validly made with respect to any Company Shares, any subsequent transfer of such Company Shares shall automatically revoke such Election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Elections shall be automatically deemed revoked upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of written notification from the Company or Parent that this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article 7. The Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine if any Election is not properly made, changed or revoked with respect to any Company Shares (none of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent being under any duty to notify any Company shareholder of any applicable defect). In the event the Exchange Agent makes a determination that an Election was not properly made, such Election shall be deemed to be not in effect, and the Company Shares covered by such Election shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be Mixed Consideration Shares, unless a proper Election is thereafter timely made with respect to such shares.

4.19 Financing.

(a) Parent is a party to and has accepted a fully executed commitment letter dated June 7, 2018 (as the same may be amended or replaced, in each case in accordance with Section 5.13(a), the “Commitment Letter”) from the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to provide debt financing in the amounts set forth therein. The debt financing committed pursuant to the Commitment Letter is collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Financing.”

(b) Parent has delivered to the Company a true, complete and correct copy of the executed Commitment Letter and any fee letters related thereto, subject, in the case of such fee letters, to redaction solely of fee, pricing, “price flex” and other economic provisions that could not reasonably be expect to affect the conditionality, enforceability, availability or principal amount of the Financing.

(c) Except as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letter, there are no conditions precedent to the obligations of the Lenders to provide the Financing in the amount contemplated by the Commitment Letter. Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b), Parent does not have any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis all terms and conditions to be satisfied by it in the Commitment Letter on or prior to the Closing Date, nor does Parent have knowledge that any of the Lenders will not perform its obligations thereunder. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no side letters, understandings or other agreements, contracts or arrangements of any kind relating to the Financing that could affect the conditionality, enforceability, principal amount or availability of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter.

(d) Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b), the Financing, when funded in accordance with the terms of the Commitment Letter, together with available cash of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, Parent, the Parent Subsidiaries and Merger Sub, will provide Parent with net cash proceeds on the Closing Date sufficient for the satisfaction of all of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement and under the Commitment Letter, including the payment of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration, any fees and expenses of or payable by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, any payments in respect of equity compensation obligations to be made in connection with the Merger, and any repayment or refinancing of any outstanding indebtedness of Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries contemplated by, or required in connection with the transactions described in, this Agreement or the Commitment Letter (such amounts, collectively, the “Merger Amounts”).

-37-

(e) The Commitment Letter constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of all the parties thereto and is in full force and effect (except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, and to general equitable principles, including specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief). As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would constitute a breach or failure to satisfy a condition by Parent under the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter, and Parent does not have any reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing will not be satisfied by Parent on a timely basis or that the Financing will not be available to Parent on the date of the Closing. Parent has paid in full any and all commitment fees or other fees required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter on or before the date of this Agreement, and will pay in full any such amounts due on or before the Closing Date. As of the date hereof, (i) the Commitment Letter has not been modified, amended or altered, (ii) none of the respective commitments thereunder has been withdrawn or rescinded in any respect and (iii) to the Knowledge of Parent, no modification or amendment to the Commitment Letter is currently contemplated (except any modification or amendment solely to the extent necessary to add lenders, lead arrangers, book-runners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement (including in replacement of a Lender)).

(f) In no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Financing) by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates or any other financing or other transactions be a condition to any of Parent’s or Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement.

4.20 Solvency. On the Closing Date, immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger and any financing being entered into by Parent or Merger Sub in connection therewith) and the payment of all related fees and expenses, and assuming the satisfaction of the conditions in Sections 6.1 and 6.2:

(a) the Fair Value of the assets of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, shall exceed their Liabilities;

(b) the Present Fair Saleable Value of the assets of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, shall exceed their Liabilities;

(c) Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, shall be able to pay their Liabilities as they mature; and

(d) Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, shall not be left with unreasonably small capital to carry on its businesses and all businesses in which it is about to engage.

-38-

For purposes of this Section 4.20, the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) “Fair Value” means the amount at which the assets (both tangible and intangible), in their entirety, of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under any compulsion to act.

(ii) “Liabilities” means the recorded liabilities (including contingent liabilities that would be recorded in accordance with GAAP) of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries taken as a whole, as of the Closing Date immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any financing being entered into in connection therewith), determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. For purposes of this definition, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual and matured liability.

(iii) “Present Fair Saleable Value” means the amount that could be obtained by an independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if the assets of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are sold with reasonable promptness in an arm’s-length transaction under present conditions for the sale of comparable business enterprises insofar as such conditions can be reasonably evaluated.

Any material violations of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.3 by any Company Subsidiary or any director or executive officer of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Section 5.3 by the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.3(a), if at any time following the date hereof and prior to the time that the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party, which Acquisition Proposal was made or renewed on or after the date of this Agreement and does not result from a breach of the obligations set forth in Section 5.3(a), (i) the Company and the Company Representatives shall be permitted to participate in discussions regarding such Acquisition Proposal solely to clarify the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal and (ii) if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its advisors, based on information then available, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and the failure to take the following actions would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Company may (i) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (including nonpublic information) to the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal, its representatives and potential sources of financing and (ii) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal, its representatives and potential sources of financing regarding such Acquisition Proposal (subject to promptly and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours, notifying Parent of the status and material details thereof (including copies of any written documentation that is material to such Acquisition Proposal); provided that the Company (A) will not, and will cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, and will instruct the Company Representatives not to, disclose any material nonpublic information to such Person without first entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Person and (B) will provide to Parent any material nonpublic information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries provided or made available to such other Person that was not previously provided or made available to Parent as promptly as practicable (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours of providing such information to such other Person).

(c) The Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after knowledge of receipt by an executive officer or director of the Company) notify Parent in the event that the Company receives (or obtains Knowledge that any Company Representative has received) any Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall notify Parent promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after knowledge of receipt by an executive officer or director of the Company) provide to Parent the identity of the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal and a copy of such Acquisition Proposal (or, where no such copy is available, a reasonable summary of the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal). Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within

-46-

twenty-four (24) hours after such determination) advise Parent if the Company determines to begin providing information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal pursuant to Section 5.3(b). Thereafter, the Company shall keep Parent informed on a prompt (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) basis of the status and material details (including amendments or proposed amendments) of any such Acquisition Proposal (including by providing copies of any written documentation material to such Acquisition Proposal).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.3(a), if the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that (i) has not been withdrawn, (ii) did not result from a breach of the obligations set forth in Section 5.3(a) and (iii) that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company Board may at any time prior to the time that the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, (A) effect a Change of Board Recommendation with respect to such Superior Proposal or (B) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, in either case, subject to the requirements of Section 5.3(f) and, in the case of clause (B), provided, that the Company (x) pays, or causes to be paid, to Intermediate Parent the Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 7.3(a) prior to or concurrently with such termination and (y) immediately following or concurrently with such termination, enters into a definitive acquisition agreement that documents the terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.3(a), the Company Board may, at any time prior to the time that the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, and subject to compliance with the requirements of Section 5.3(f), effect a Change of Board Recommendation if (i) the Company Board determines that an Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to effect a Change of Board Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f) The Company shall not be entitled to effect a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 5.3(d) or Section 5.3(e) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3(d) and Section 7.1(f) unless (x) the Company shall have provided to Parent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Notice Period”) of the Company’s intention to take such action, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal (and shall have provided to Parent a copy of the available proposed transaction agreement to be entered into in respect of such Acquisition Proposal) or details of such Intervening Event, as applicable, and (y):

(i) during the Notice Period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall have engaged in good faith negotiations with Parent regarding any amendment to this Agreement proposed in writing by Parent that would reasonably be expected to (A) obviate the need to effect a Change of Board Recommendation or (B) cause such Acquisition Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal, as applicable; and

-47-

(ii) the Company Board shall have considered in good faith any adjustments or proposed amendments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and any other agreements that may be proposed in writing by Parent (the “Proposed Changed Terms”) no later than 11:59 a.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Notice Period and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its advisors and outside counsel, that the failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 5.3(d) or Section 5.3(e) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3(d) and Section 7.1(f), as applicable, would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Any (A) material changes relating to such Intervening Event or (B) material revisions to such Superior Proposal offered in writing by the party making such Superior Proposal, as applicable, shall constitute a new Intervening Event or Acquisition Proposal, as applicable, and, in each case, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.3(f) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Notice Period shall be two (2) Business Days with respect thereto, but no such new written notice shall shorten the original Notice Period.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall prohibit the Company Board from (i) disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to make such disclosure would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties or violate applicable Law. The issuance by the Company or the Company Board of a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position, as contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, in which the Company indicates that it has not changed the Company Board Recommendation as of the date of such statement, shall not constitute a Change of Board Recommendation.

(h) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 5.3(a) to the contrary, the Company shall not grant any waiver or release under, or fail to enforce, any standstill or similar agreement; provided, however, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company may grant a waiver or release under any standstill agreement, or any provision of any confidentiality or similar agreement with similar effect, (i) if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (ii) in response to an Acquisition Proposal made under such circumstances in which the Company is permitted under this Section 5.3 to participate in discussions regarding an Acquisition Proposal, but only to the extent necessary to allow it to pursue or consummate such Acquisition Proposal, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 5.3. The Company shall provide written notice to Parent of waiver or release of any standstill by the Company, including disclosure of the identities of the parties thereto and a summary of the material circumstances relating thereto. Except for the waiver or release of any standstill, or any provision of any confidentiality or similar agreement with similar effect, as contemplated by this Section 5.3(h), the Company shall not release or permit the release of any Person from, or amend, waive, terminate or modify, and shall not permit the amendment, waiver, termination or modification of, any provision of, any confidentiality or similar agreement or provision to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party or under which the

-48-

Company or any Company Subsidiary has any rights. The Company shall not, and shall instruct and use commercially reasonable efforts to not permit any Company Representative (on the Company’s behalf) to, enter into any confidentiality or similar agreement subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits the Company from providing to Parent the information specifically required to be provided to Parent pursuant to this Section 5.3.

Parent and Merger Sub shall not, except as may be consented to in advance in writing by the Company, directly or indirectly through one or more of its affiliates, acquire any Person or material assets thereof or interest therein, if such acquisition would reasonably be expected to cause a delay beyond the Outside Date or prevent the consummation of the Merger.

(b) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.4, each party hereto shall (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) keep the other parties notified as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or other Proceeding, (iii) promptly notify the other parties of any oral or written communication to or from any Governmental Entity regarding the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iv) promptly provide to the other parties copies of any written communications received or provided by such party, or any of its Subsidiaries, from or to any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that Parent and the Company may, as each reasonably and in good xxxxx xxxxx advisable and necessary, designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Each party hereto will consult and cooperate with the other parties with respect to and provide any necessary information and assistance as the other parties may reasonably request with respect to all notices, submissions, or filings made by such party with any Governmental Entity or any other information supplied by such party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement or any transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will permit the other parties to review and discuss in advance and consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any filing, analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Subject to Section 5.3(g), but notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, no amendment or supplement (including by incorporation by reference) to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Form S-4 shall be made without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon and without the parties consulting and cooperating with one another, and considering in good faith the view of one another in doing so (provided, that, without limiting the foregoing, no amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall be made without the approval of both the Company and Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

-51-

delayed). If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective affiliates, officers or directors, is discovered by Parent or the Company and such information should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party hereto discovering such information shall promptly notify the other parties and, to the extent required by law, rules or regulations, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and disseminated to the stockholders of the Company in accordance with applicable Law.

(b) The Company shall duly take all lawful action to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting as soon as practicable following the declaration of effectiveness of the Form S-4 by the SEC for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval. The record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting shall be determined by the Company with prior consultation with Parent; provided, that the Company shall not change the date of (or the record date for), postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting without the consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), provided, however, that the Company shall (i) be entitled to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting on one or more occasions without the prior consent of Parent and (ii) shall postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting on one or more occasions if so requested by Parent, in each case, if, on the date for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is then scheduled, the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of Company Shares to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present.

(c) The Company Board shall, except in the case of a Change of Board Recommendation made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, recommend the adoption of this Agreement by the Company stockholders to the effect as set forth in Section 3.3, and, subject to Section 5.3, shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit the Company Stockholder Approval. Notwithstanding any Change in Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 5.3, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, this Agreement shall be submitted to the Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve the Company of such obligation. The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, during the last seven (7) Business Days prior to the date of the Company Stockholders Meeting, request its proxy solicitor to advise Parent at least one (1) time each Business Day as to the aggregate tally of proxies received by the Company with respect to the Company Stockholder Approval. Without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unconditionally withheld, delayed or conditioned), and except as required by applicable Law or the rules and regulations of NASDAQ, the adoption of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) shall be the only matter (other than procedural matters) that the Company shall propose to be acted on by the stockholders of the Company at the Company Stockholders Meeting.

5.6 Public Announcements. So long as this Agreement is in effect, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, shall not, and shall cause their respective controlled affiliates not to, issue any press release or make any public statement with respect to the Merger or this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (a) as may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which the relevant party is subject, in which case, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and practicable under the circumstances, the party proposing to issue such press release or make such public announcement shall consult in good faith with the other party before making any such public announcement, (b) with respect to any press release or other public statement by the Company permitted by Section 5.3 or (c) statements consistent in all material respects with any release, disclosure or other public statement previously made in accordance with this Section 5.6. The press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint release of, and shall not be issued prior to the approval of each of, the Company and Parent.

5.7 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, honor all Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. For a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time, Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Person who is employed by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time who continues in the employ of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective affiliates on or after the Effective Time (“Company Employees”) (i) a base salary or wage rate and short-term incentive cash compensation opportunities that, in each case, are no less favorable than were provided to the Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time and (ii) all other compensation and employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to the Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time.

(b) For purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and for calculating severance and vacation entitlements under the employee benefit plans of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries (each, a “New Plan”), each Company Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (A) each Company Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent that coverage under such New Plans is comparable to a Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”) and (B) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Company Employee, Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all eligibility waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the comparable Old Plans, and Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plans ending on the date such

-53-

employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c) Parent hereby acknowledges that a “change in control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of the Benefit Plans will occur at the Effective Time.

(d) The Company may implement a retention program in accordance with Section 5.7(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Company Employee or other Person any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Parent Subsidiaries or any of their respective affiliates. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.7, no provision of this Agreement: (i) shall limit the ability of the Company or any of its affiliates (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) to amend, modify or terminate in accordance with its terms any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract, policy or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, (ii) shall be deemed or construed to amend, establish, or modify any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract, policy or arrangement or (iii) create any third party beneficiary rights or obligations in any person (including any current or former service provider or employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof)) or any right to employment or continued employment or to a particular term or condition of employment with the Company or any of its affiliates (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries).

5.8 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) For six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors, officers and employees of the Company or each Company Subsidiary (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) to the same extent such Persons are indemnified as of the date of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational or governing documents, of any Company Subsidiary and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any directors, officers and employees and made available to Parent (collectively, the “Existing Indemnification Agreements”), in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary occurring at or prior to the Effective Time. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law for acts or omissions occurring in connection with the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Proceeding or investigation with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.8 in accordance with the procedures (if any) set forth in the Company

-54-

Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational documents, of any Company Subsidiary, and any Existing Indemnification Agreements; provided, that the applicable Covered Person provides an undertaking to repay such advance if it is ultimately determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.8 or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Proceeding (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) is made against such persons with respect to matters subject to indemnification hereunder on or prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 5.8 shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such Proceeding or investigation.

(b) For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification of and advancement of expenses to Covered Persons for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws. Following the Effective Time, the Existing Indemnification Agreements shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation, without any further action, and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

(c) For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain for the benefit of the directors and officers of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Effective Time, an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate than the existing policies of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (true and complete copies of which have been previously made available to Parent) or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided that the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as is available for such amount. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, which policies shall be approved by Parent and provide such directors and officers with coverage for an aggregate period of at least six (6) years with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time, including in connection with the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) In the event that the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each case, proper provision shall be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.8.

-55-

(e) The obligations under this Section 5.8 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to the Covered Persons (and their respective successors and assigns); it being expressly agreed that the Covered Persons (including successors and assigns) shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.8. In the event of any breach by the Surviving Corporation or Parent of this Section 5.8, the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by Covered Persons in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 5.8 as such fees are incurred upon the written request of such Covered Person.

5.9 Takeover Statutes. If any state takeover Law or state Law that purports to limit or restrict business combinations or the ability to acquire or vote Shares (including any “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “moratorium,” “business combination” or other similar takeover Law) becomes or is deemed to be applicable to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, this Agreement, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cooperate and take all action reasonably available to render such Law inapplicable to the foregoing. Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor the Company will take any action that would cause this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be subject to the requirements imposed by any such Laws.

5.10 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, shall adopt a resolution consistent with the interpretive guidance of the SEC so that the disposition by any officer or director of the Company who is a “covered person” of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (“Section 16”) of Company Shares and Company Equity Awards pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger shall be an exempt transaction for purposes of Section 16.

5.11 Stockholder Litigation. The parties shall cooperate and consult with one another in connection with any Proceeding by the Company’s stockholders against the Company or any of its directors, officers or affiliates with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and the Company shall give Parent notice of any such Proceeding as promptly as practicable. The Company shall not compromise or settle any Proceeding commenced against it or its directors, officers or affiliates relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) without Parent’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

5.12 Stock Exchange Listing. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall use 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 under applicable Laws and rules and policies of the NYSE to cause the Parent Shares to be issued in the Merger and such other Parent Shares to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Merger to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance. The Company shall cooperate with Parent in connection with the foregoing, including by providing information reasonably requested by Parent in connection therewith. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use 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 under applicable Laws and rules and policies of NASDAQ to cause the delisting of the Company and of the Company Shares from NASDAQ as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and the deregistration of the Company Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

5.13 Financing and Financing Cooperation.

(a) Each of Parent and Intermediate Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or use reasonable best efforts to cause to be taken all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, advisable or proper to obtain the proceeds of the Financing prior to the date upon which the Merger is required to be consummated pursuant to the terms hereof, including by using reasonable best efforts to: (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter, (ii) negotiate definitive agreements (which, with respect to the bridge facility documentation, shall not be required until reasonably necessary in connection with the funding of the Financing) with respect to the Financing (the “Definitive Agreements”) not less favorable to Parent, Intermediate Parent and Merger Sub with respect to conditionality than the terms and conditions contained therein (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in any related fee letter) and (iii) satisfy (or, if deemed advisable by Parent, seek the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions in the Commitment Letter and the Definitive Agreements that are under its control and comply with its obligations thereunder. In the event that all conditions contained in the Commitment Letter (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions to be taken at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) have been satisfied, Parent and Intermediate Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter and the Definitive Documents in a timely and diligent manner to cause the Lenders to comply with their respective obligations thereunder, including to fund the Financing.

(i) Neither Parent nor Intermediate Parent shall, nor shall they permit Merger Sub to, without the prior written consent of the Company: (A) permit any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements if such amendment, modification, waiver or remedy (1) adds new (or adversely modifies any existing) conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Financing, (2) reduces the amount of the Financing, (3) adversely affects the ability of Parent or Intermediate Parent to enforce its rights against other parties to the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements relative to the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof or (4) would otherwise reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent may amend the Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, book-runners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed such Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement, if the addition of such parties, individually or in the aggregate, does not add new (or adversely modify any existing) conditions to the consummation of the Financing); or (B) terminate the Commitment Letter or any Definitive Agreement. Parent and Intermediate Parent shall promptly deliver to the Company copies of any such amendment, modification, waiver or replacement.

(ii) In the event that any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor, Parent will (A) use reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative debt financing in an amount sufficient, when taken together with available cash of Parent, the Parent Subsidiaries, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the available portion of the

-57-

Financing, to fund the cash portion of the Merger Consideration and the other Merger Amounts (the “Alternate Financing”) from the same or other sources and which do not include any conditions to the consummation of such alternative debt financing that are more onerous than the conditions set forth in the Financing and (B) promptly notify the Company of such unavailability and the reason therefor. In furtherance of and not in limitation of the foregoing, in the event that (1) any portion of the Financing or any financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement structured as high yield or debt securities financing is unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor, (2) all conditions contained in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than (x) any such conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing, and (y) those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied is attributable to a breach by Parent, Intermediate Parent or Merger Sub of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement), (3) the Marketing Period shall have ended and (4) the bridge facilities contemplated by the Commitment Letter (or alternative bridge facilities obtained in accordance with this Section 5.13) are available on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter (or replacements thereof), then each of Parent, Intermediate Parent and Merger Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the proceeds of such bridge financing to be used immediately in lieu of such affected portion of the high yield financing. For the purposes of this Agreement, in the event any Alternate Financing is obtained and an alternate commitment letter (or similar agreement) (the “Alternate Commitment Letter”) is entered into in compliance herewith, (A) any reference in this Agreement to “Financing” shall mean the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter as modified pursuant to clause (B) below and any Definitive Agreements (including definitive agreements relating to Alternate Financing), and (B) the term Commitment Letter (or defined terms that use such phrase) shall be deemed to include any Commitment Letter remaining in effect at the time in question and any Alternate Commitment Letter to the extent then in effect. Parent and Intermediate Parent shall provide the Company with prompt notice of any material breach, material default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letter or any Definitive Agreement and a copy of any written notice or other written communication from any Lender or other Alternate Financing source with respect to any material breach, material default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letter or any Definitive Agreement of any provision thereof. Upon request of the Company, Parent shall appraise the Company of developments relating to the Financing. The foregoing notwithstanding, compliance by Parent and/or Merger Sub with this Section 5.13 shall not relieve Parent, Intermediate Parent and Merger Sub of their obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to provide and use reasonable best efforts to cause its officers, employees, consultants, agents, advisors and other representatives, including legal and accounting, (the “Financing Representatives”) to provide, all customary cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with Parent’s financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Financing), including:

(i) assisting in preparation for and participation in marketing efforts (including lender meetings and calls) and a reasonable number of drafting sessions, rating agency presentations, road shows and due diligence sessions (including accounting due diligence sessions) and sessions between senior management of the Company and the Company

-58-

Subsidiaries and actual or prospective lenders, investors and ratings agencies, in each case at reasonable, mutually agreed times, and with reasonable advance notice, and assisting Parent in obtaining ratings in connection with Parent’s financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Financing);

(ii) assisting Parent and its financing sources (including the Financing Sources) in the preparation of customary offering documents, private placement memoranda, bank information memoranda, lender presentations, prospectuses and similar customary marketing documents for any of the Financing or any other financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Offering Documents”);

(iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable in connection with the anticipated timing for the marketing of the Financing or any financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (A) furnishing Parent and Parent’s financing sources (including the Financing Sources) and their respective representatives with the Required Information that is Compliant and (B) informing Parent if the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall have Knowledge of any facts that would reasonably be expected to cause any of the Required Information not to be Compliant;

(iv) as promptly as reasonably practicable, (A) using reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s independent auditors to furnish all required consents and reports reasonably required for the Offering Documents (including consents to be named therein), (B) upon the reasonable request of Parent, using reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s independent auditors to furnish accountants’ comfort letters (including customary “negative assurance” and “tickmarks”) with respect to the financial and related information of the Company and its Subsidiaries contained in the Offering Documents that are customary in connection with high-yield financings of the type contemplated as part of the Financing and (C) providing appropriate representations to the Company’s independent auditors in connection with auditor due diligence sessions and the foregoing clauses (A) and (B);

(v) assisting Parent in connection with the preparation of pro forma financial information and financial statements to the extent such pro forma financial information or financial statements are required by SEC Regulatory Requirements or necessary or reasonably required by Parent’s financing sources (including the Financing Sources) to be included in any offering documents; provided, that neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries or Financing Representatives shall be required to prepare any such pro forma financial information or financial statements or responsible in any manner for information relating to the proposed debt and equity capitalization that is required for such pro forma financial information;

(vi) facilitating the execution and delivery as of (but not before) the Closing of any definitive financing documents or other certificates, customary legal opinions from applicable outside counsel to Parent and Merger Sub, including local counsel, or documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent; and

(vii) providing at least four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing Date all documentation and other information relating to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as is required by applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including the USA PATRIOT Act to the extent requested at least nine (9) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date.

-59-

The foregoing or anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries nor any of the Financing Representatives shall be required to take or permit the taking of any action pursuant to this Section 5.13 or Section 5.14 that would: (i) require the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or any Persons who are directors of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the execution of the Financing or any other financing of Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other matter or execute or deliver any certificate, document, instrument or agreement or agree to any change or modification of any existing certificate, document, instrument or agreement, in each case, prior to the Closing (other than customary representation letters referred to in clause (iv) above), (ii) cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, (iii) require the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to pay any commitment or other similar fee prior to the Closing or incur any other liability or other obligation prior to Closing or have any obligation of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries under any agreement, certificate, document or instrument (other than this Agreement) be effective until the Closing, (iv) cause any director, officer or employee or stockholder of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to incur any personal liability, (v) conflict with the organizational documents of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or any applicable Laws, (vi) provide access to or disclose information that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries determines would jeopardize any attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (vii) unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries. Nothing contained in this Section 5.13 or otherwise shall require the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, prior to the Closing, to be an issuer or other obligor with respect to the Financing or any other financing of Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or any of the Financing Representatives in connection with such cooperation pursuant to this Section 5.13 or any action taken by them pursuant to Section 5.14 and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the Financing Representatives from and against any and all losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Financing or any other financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any action taken by them pursuant to this Section 5.13 or Section 5.14 and any information used in connection therewith (other than information provided in writing by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries specifically in connection with its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.13 or Section 5.14), in each case, except to the extent suffered or incurred as a result of the bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or the Financing Representatives.

(c) The Company hereby consents to the use of its and the Company Subsidiaries’ logos and other trade marks in connection with the Financing or any other financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that such logos shall be used solely in a customary manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries.

-60-

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions contained in this Section 5.13 represent the sole obligation of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates with respect to cooperation in connection with the arrangement of any financing (including the Financing) to be obtained by Parent or Merger Sub with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and no other provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations. In no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Financing) by Parent, Intermediate Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates or any other financing or other transactions be a condition to any of Parent’s, Intermediate Parent’s or Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement.

(e) The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to periodically update any Required Information provided to Parent as may be necessary so that such Required Information is (i) Compliant and (ii) meets the applicable requirements set forth in the definition of “Required Information”. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent may, to most effectively access the financing markets, require the cooperation of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries under this Section 5.13 at any time, and from time to time and on multiple occasions, between the date hereof and the Closing; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Marketing Period shall not be applicable as to each attempt to access the markets. In addition, if, in connection with a marketing effort contemplated by the Commitment Letter or any financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Parent reasonably requests the Company to file a Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act that contains material non-public information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, which Parent reasonably determines is necessary (after consultation with the Company) to include in customary offering materials for the Financing or any other financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (in each case other than offering materials to be shared only with “private side” investors that are subject to a confidentiality agreement), then, upon the Company’s review of and reasonable satisfaction with such filing, the Company shall file such Current Report on Form 8-K.

(f) All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Company or the Company Subsidiaries obtained by Parent or its affiliates pursuant to this Section 5.13 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the condition set forth in Section 6.3(b), as it applies to Parent’s, Intermediate Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations under this Section 5.13, shall be deemed satisfied notwithstanding any breach of such obligations by Parent, Intermediate Parent or Merger Sub, as long as at such time, Parent and Intermediate Parent have deposited cash in an amount equal to at least the Merger Amounts in a segregated account to be used solely for the purpose of funding the Merger Amounts.

-61-

5.14 Treatment of Company Indebtedness.

(a) Prepayment of Indebtedness. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts, and shall cause the applicable Company Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts, to deliver to Parent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a copy of a payoff letter (subject to the delivery of funds and cash collateralization, backstopping or replacement of letters of credit, in each case, as arranged by Parent) with respect to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Subject Indebtedness”) in customary form (the “Payoff Letter”), which Payoff Letter shall (i) indicate the total amount required to be paid to fully satisfy all principal, interest, prepayment premiums, penalties, breakage costs and any other monetary obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made) then due and payable under the Subject Indebtedness as of the anticipated Closing Date (and the daily accrual thereafter) (the “Payoff Amount”) (ii) state that upon receipt of the Payoff Amount under the Payoff Letter, the Subject Indebtedness and all related loan documents shall be terminated (other than the terms thereof that expressly survive such termination in accordance with the terms of such documents) and (iii) provide that all guarantees of any of the Company Subsidiaries of the Subject Indebtedness and, to the extent secured, all Liens securing obligations in respect of the Subject Indebtedness shall be released and terminated upon payment of the Payoff Amount and the cash collateralization, backstopping or replacement of any outstanding letters of credit (which cash collateralization, backstopping, replacement shall be arranged by Parent) on the Closing Date.

expressly conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing, and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent, at Parent’s request, to facilitate the initial settlement of the Debt Offers by Parent on the Closing Date; provided, that the consummation of a Debt Offer with respect to the Senior Notes shall not be a condition to Closing. The Debt Offers shall be conducted in compliance with (and the terms of any Debt Offer shall comply with) the Indenture and SEC Regulatory Requirements, and the Company shall not be required to cooperate with respect to any Debt Offer that is not in compliance with the Senior Notes, the Indenture and SEC Regulatory Requirements. Subject to Section 5.13(b), at Parent’s expense, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and their respective representatives to, in each case, use their reasonable best efforts to provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Debt Offer; provided that prior to the Closing, neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries, nor counsel for the Company shall be required to furnish any officer’s certificates, legal opinions or negative assurance letters in connection with the Debt Offers (other than, in connection with the execution of a supplemental indenture relating to any consent solicitation of the type described in clause (ii) below, the Company delivering customary officer’s certificates, and using reasonable best efforts to cause counsel for the Company to deliver customary legal opinions, respectively, to the trustee under the Indenture, to the extent such certificates and opinions would not (in the opinion of the Company, its counsel and the Trustee) conflict with applicable Laws, the terms of the Senior Notes or the Indenture and would be accurate in light of the facts and circumstances at the time delivered) or execute any other instruments or agreements in connection therewith other than the supplemental indenture described in clause (ii) below. To the extent that the provisions of SEC Regulatory Requirements conflict with this Section 5.14(b)(i), Parent and the Company shall comply with SEC Regulatory Requirements and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Agreement by such compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company or its legal counsel be required to give an opinion with respect to the Financing or any other financing of Parent or Merger Sub.

(ii) To the extent any Debt Offer includes a consent solicitation, then subject to the receipt of the requisite consents, the Company and the applicable Company Subsidiaries shall execute a supplemental indenture to the Indenture in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, amending the terms and provisions of the Indenture as described in the relevant Debt Offer Documents as reasonably requested by Parent, which supplemental indenture shall become operative no earlier than the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company or any of its officers, directors or other representatives have any obligation to authorize, adopt or execute any amendments or other agreement that is not permitted under applicable Law, the terms of the Senior Notes or the Indenture or would become operative prior to the Effective Time.

7.3 Termination Fee.

(a) The parties agree that if this Agreement is terminated by Parent in accordance with Section 7.1(e) or by the Company in accordance with Section 7.1(f), then the Company shall pay (or cause to be paid) to Intermediate Parent (or its designee) prior to or concurrently with such termination, in the case of a termination by the Company, or within two (2) Business Days thereafter, in the case of a termination by Parent, a termination fee equal to eighteen million four hundred seventy-two thousand dollars ($18,472,000) (the “Termination

-67-

Fee”); provided, however, that in the event the Termination Fee becomes payable as a result of the termination of this Agreement prior to the Window Period End Time (i) by Parent pursuant to Section 7.1(e) in response to a Change of Board Recommendation effected in compliance with Section 5.3(d) with respect to a Superior Proposal by a Qualified Bidder or (ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(f) with respect to a Superior Proposal by a Qualified Bidder, then, in the case of either of the immediately preceding clauses (i) or (ii), “Termination Fee” means an amount equal to ten million dollars ($10,000,000).

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be obligated to pay the Termination Fee with respect to any Acquisition Proposal unless such Acquisition Proposal is consummated. For purposes of this Section 7.3(b), the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 8.4, except that the references to “20%” shall be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(c) The Company acknowledges that the agreement contained in this Section 7.3 is an integral part of this Agreement and that, without this Section 7.3, Merger Sub, Intermediate Parent and Parent would not have entered into this Agreement.

-68-

this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger (except that the Company shall also be obligated with respect to Section 7.3(c) and except that the applicable Company Related Parties shall remain obligated for, and Parent and Merger Sub may be entitled to remedies with respect to the provisions and agreements surviving such termination pursuant to Section 7.2). For the avoidance of doubt, while Parent and Merger Sub may pursue, in the alternative, both a grant of specific performance in accordance with Section 8.14 and the payment of the Termination Fee under Section 7.3, under no circumstances shall Parent and Merger Sub be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance and the Termination Fee.

7.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub by action taken by or on behalf of their respective boards of directors; provided however, that after the Company Stockholder Approval has been obtained, there may not be, without further approval of the stockholders of the Company, any amendment of this Agreement, which by Law otherwise requires the further approval of the stockholders of the Company. This Agreement may not be amended, except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

7.5 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any breach of the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance by the other with any of the agreements or covenants contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than (a) any Persons entitled to indemnification or insurance benefits under the provisions of Section 5.8 following the Effective Time, with respect to such provisions, (b) the stockholders of the Company, after the Effective Time, as applicable, with respect to the right of such stockholders to receive the Merger Consideration, in the case of Company Shares converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in the Merger, (c) if the Effective Time occurs, the right of holders of the Company Equity Awards to receive payments contemplated hereby in respect thereof after the Effective Time and (d) as provided in Section 8.15.

-84-

are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto, and consequently, may not accurately characterize actual facts or circumstances.

8.11 Mutual Drafting; Interpretation. Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Exhibits” and “Annexes” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Exhibits and Annexes to this Agreement. The Company Disclosure Letter and exhibits attached to this Agreement constitute a part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein for all purposes. The words “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section or Article in which such words appear. All references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise specifically provided for herein, the term “or” shall not be deemed to be exclusive. Disclosure of any item on the Company Disclosure Letter by reference to any particular Section or Subsection of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute disclosure with respect to any other Section or Subsection of this Agreement if the relevance of such disclosure to such other Section or Subsection is reasonably apparent from such disclosure or the context in which such disclosure is made. Except as otherwise indicated, “made available” or terms of similar import mean made available to Parent and its advisors in the electronic data room maintained by the Company for purposes of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at least one (1) day prior to the date hereof.

8.12 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(a) Other than as set forth in Section 8.15, this Agreement and all claims and causes of action arising in connection herewith shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to Laws that may be applicable under conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

-85-

(b) Other than as set forth in Section 8.15, each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising in connection herewith or any claim or cause of action arising in connection with this Agreement or the negotiation hereof, and any Proceeding for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by any other party hereto or its successors or assigns, will be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to or arising from this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the negotiation hereof in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 8.12, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.3 and agrees that service made in such manner shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE FINANCING) IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE FINANCING). EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.12(c).

8.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, including by facsimile or other electronic transmission each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Until and unless the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

8.14 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that if any the provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and accordingly, (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to specific performance of the terms hereof, in each case in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, (b) the parties waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any specific performance or injunctive relief and (c) the parties will waive, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law. Either party’s pursuit of specific performance at any time will not be deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled, including the right to pursue remedies for liabilities or damages incurred or suffered by a party in the case of a breach of this Agreement involving willful breach or fraud.

8.15 Proceedings Involving Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company on behalf of itself, the Company Subsidiaries and each of its controlled affiliates hereby: (a) agrees that any Proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing or any of the agreements (including the Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agrees that any such Proceeding shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the Commitment Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the Financing, (c) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its affiliates to bring or support any Proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing, the Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in

8.16 Non-Recourse. Each party hereto agrees, on behalf of itself and its controlled affiliates, that all proceedings, claims, obligations, liabilities or causes of action (whether in Contract or in tort, in law or in equity or otherwise, or granted by statute or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate to: (A) this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein or the transactions contemplated hereunder (including any financing obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), (B) the negotiation, execution or performance this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement or such other agreement), (C) any breach or violation of this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein and (D) any failure of the transactions contemplated hereunder or any other agreement referenced herein (including any agreement in respect of financing obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) to be consummated, in each case, may be made only against (and are those solely of) the persons that are expressly identified herein as parties to this Agreement and, in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein or otherwise to the contrary, each party hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges, on behalf of itself and its respective controlled affiliates, that no recourse under this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein or in connection with any transactions contemplated hereby (including any financing obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) shall be sought or had against any other person and no other person shall have any liabilities or obligations (whether in Contract or in tort, in law or in equity or otherwise, or granted by statute or otherwise, whether by or through attempted
