Parent, Merger Sub and the Company are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party.”

RECITALS

A. It is proposed that Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act (the “NJBCA”), pursuant to which each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares, will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

B. The board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board of Directors”) unanimously (i) determined that the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Transactions”), including the Merger, are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its shareholders (the “Company Shareholders”), (ii) approved the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the performance by the Company of its covenants and agreements contained herein and the consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, and (iii) resolved to recommend that the Company Shareholders adopt this Agreement (the “Company Board Recommendation”).

C. The respective boards of directors of each of Parent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sub and the shareholders of Merger Sub have unanimously approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger.

D. As a material inducement to, and as a condition to, Parent and Merger Sub entering into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, certain of the Company Shareholders are entering into support agreements in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Support Agreements”), dated as of the date hereof, with Parent and the Company, pursuant to which, among other things, such Company Shareholders have agreed to vote such Company Shareholder’s Company Common Stock in favor of the approval of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CONSTITUENT COMPANIES

3.1 Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any shares of Company Common Stock or any capital stock of Merger Sub:

(a) Cancellation of Cancelled Shares. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by either Parent Entity or any of their respective Subsidiaries and each share of Company Common Stock that is owned by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, including shares of Company Common Stock held as treasury stock (collectively, the “Cancelled Shares”), shall automatically be canceled at the Effective Time and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) Cancelled Shares and (ii) such shares that are Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive $2.13 per share in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest thereon, which shall be payable in accordance with Section 3.3. At the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Stock Certificate or Book-Entry Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Merger Consideration.

(c) Conversion of Merger Sub Capital Stock. 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 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Adjustments. The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted appropriately, without duplication, to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

3.2 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 3.1, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who is entitled to and has properly demanded appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA (such shares of Company Common Stock being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect, withdraws, or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the NJBCA with respect to such shares of Company Common Stock) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead shall be entitled to only such consideration as may be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA. At the Effective Time, the Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws, or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1, without interest thereon, and such shares of Company Common Stock shall not be deemed Dissenting Shares. The Company shall provide Parent (a) prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the NJBCA that relates to such demand, and any such written notice to Parent shall be delivered within one (1) Business Day after the Company’s receipt of any of the foregoing, and (b) the opportunity and right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands made pursuant to Section 14A:11-1 et seq. of the NJBCA (it being understood that, subject to good-faith consultation with ▇▇▇▇▇▇, the Company will have the right to direct and control any such negotiations and proceedings). The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any such demand or offer to settle or settle any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

3.3 Payment; Stock Certificates.

(a) Payment Fund; Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC to act as its paying agent in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”). At or immediately after the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Option Consideration, the Restricted Stock Consideration, the RSU Consideration or the Warrant Consideration, which such amounts shall be deposited into the payroll or other account, as applicable, of the Company, in accordance with Section 3.4, for further payment by the Surviving Corporation (the “Equity Cancellation Payments”) in accordance with Section 3.1 (the “Exchange Fund”) in trust for the sole benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock. In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration less the aggregate amount of the Equity Cancellation Payments in accordance with Section 3.1, Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional cash with the Paying Agent in an amount that is equal to the shortfall that is required to make such payment. Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to make, and the Paying Agent shall make, delivery of the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Section 3.3. The Exchange Fund may be invested by the Paying Agent as reasonably directed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇; provided, however, that any such investment (i) shall not relieve Parent from making any payments required by this Agreement, (ii) shall not have a maturity that could prevent or delay any payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) shall in all events be limited to direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government, in commercial paper rated P-1 or A-1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ 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 $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available), and (iv) no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Stock Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this ARTICLE III. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent. Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, in connection with the exchange of shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration.

(b) Payment Procedures.

(i) Company Common Stock Certificates. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in no event later than two Business Days after the Closing Date), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Stock Certificate and whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted pursuant to Section 3.1 into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (A) a letter of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”), which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Stock Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Stock Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1. Upon surrender of a Stock Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in no event earlier than the date of receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey), the Merger Consideration therefor pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE III for each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Stock Certificate, and the Stock Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled. The Paying Agent shall accept such Stock Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Stock Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (A) the Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and (B) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Stock Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid.

(ii) Book Entry Shares. Promptly following receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey, and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after the date thereof, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Book-Entry Shares, which such Book-Entry Shares were converted pursuant to Section 3.1 into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, the Merger Consideration that such Book-Entry Shares are entitled to received pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE III. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name any Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (A) the holder of such Book-Entry Share shall provide written evidence of proper transfer of such Book-Entry Share and (B) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Book-Entry Share or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid.

(c) No Interest. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any portion of the Merger Consideration payable upon surrender of any Stock Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or in respect of any Book-Entry Share.

(d) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Common Stock on the records of the Company. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.3, each Stock Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Stock Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as contemplated by this ARTICLE III. If, after the Effective Time, Stock Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Parent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(e) Lost Stock Certificates. If any Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen, or destroyed Stock Certificate the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1.

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund; No Liability. At any time following the first anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) remaining in the Exchange Fund that have not been disbursed to holders of Stock Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, other than any such funds for which disbursement is pending subject only to the Paying Agent’s routine administrative procedures, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat, or similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the applicable Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Stock Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof), if applicable, and in respect of their Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with the procedures in Section 3.3(b), without any interest thereon, and Parent shall remain liable for (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Stock Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof), if applicable, and in respect of their Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with the procedures in Section 3.3(b). Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any such Stock Certificates or Book-Entry Shares five (5) years after the Effective Time, or at such earlier date as is immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority, will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Stock Certificate or Book-Entry Share for any Merger Consideration or other amounts properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

3.4 Treatment of Options, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units and Warrants.

(a) Options. Effective as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, (i) the vesting of each Company Option that remains outstanding as of the Effective Time and has an exercise price per share that is less than the Merger Consideration shall be accelerated in full, (ii) each holder of each such Company Option shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation an amount in cash (without interest), if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number shares Company Common Stock underlying such Company Option as of the Effective Time, by (y) an amount equal to (1) the Merger Consideration, less (2) the per share exercise price of such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”), less any applicable withholding Taxes (it being understood and agreed that such exercise price shall not actually be paid to the Surviving Corporation by the holder of a Company Option) and (iii) each Company Option shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time. On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each of the holders of Company Options, the applicable Option Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes) on the next regular payroll date following the Closing Date (but in no event earlier than the date of receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey).

(b) Restricted Stock Awards. Effective as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, (i) the vesting of each Company Restricted Stock Award underlying any outstanding Company Unvested Restricted Shares as of the Effective Time shall be accelerated in full, (ii) each such Company Restricted Stock Award shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time and (iii) each such Company Restricted Stock Award shall be converted pursuant to Section 3.1 into the right to receive, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Restricted Stock Award (as determined in accordance with the applicable award agreement relating thereto), the Merger Consideration, less all applicable withholding and other authorized deductions (the “Restricted Stock Consideration”). On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each of the holders of Company Restricted Stock Awards, the applicable Restricted Stock Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes) on the next regular payroll date following the Closing Date (but in no event earlier than the date of receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey).

(c) Restricted Stock Units. Effective as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, (i) the vesting of each Company RSU Award underlying any outstanding Company Unvested RSUs as of the Effective Time shall be accelerated in full, (ii) each such Company RSU Award shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time and (iii) each holder of each such Company RSU Award shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of Company Unvested RSUs underlying such Company RSU Award as of the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration (the “RSU Consideration”). On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each of the holders of Company RSU Awards, the applicable RSU Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes) as promptly as practicable thereafter (but in no event earlier than the date of receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey).

(d) Warrants. Effective as of the Effective Time, , (i) each Company Warrant shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time, and (ii) each holder of each such Company Warrant shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation an amount in cash (without interest), if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number shares Company Common Stock underlying such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) an amount equal to (1) the Merger Consideration, less (2) the applicable per share exercise price of such Company Warrant (the “Warrant Consideration”), less any applicable withholding Taxes (it being understood and agreed that such exercise price shall not actually be paid to the Surviving Corporation by the holder of a Company Warrant). On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each of the holders of Company Warrants, the applicable Warrant Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes) as promptly as practicable thereafter (but in no event earlier than the date of receipt of file-stamped evidence of the Merger Filing from the Office of the Department of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey). Within ten (10) Business Days following the date hereof, each holder of an outstanding Company Warrant shall be provided with written notice that such holder shall have the right to receive the Warrant Consideration, with such receipt of the Warrant Consideration conditioned on the occurrence of the Effective Time.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall terminate the Company Stock Plans effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to the consummation of the Merger.

(f) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall adopt such resolutions and take such other actions as are necessary, including provision of any required written notice, so as to effect the treatment of Company Options, Company Restricted Stock Awards, Company RSU Awards and the Company Stock Plans as contemplated by this Section 3.4.

3.5 Withholding. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement any amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted with respect to such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or non-U.S. Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PARENT ENTITIES

Except as disclosed in the disclosure letter delivered by the Parent to the Company concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Parent Disclosure Letter”) (it being understood that any information set forth in one section or subsection of the Parent Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to apply to and qualify (or, as applicable, be a disclosure for purposes of) the representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement to which it corresponds in number and, whether or not an explicit reference or cross-reference is made, each other representation and warranty set forth in this ARTICLE V for which it is reasonably apparent on its face that such information is relevant to such other section), the Parent Entities hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Company as of the date hereof and as of the Closing as set forth in this ARTICLE V.

5.1 Due Organization and Qualification. Parent is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware. Merger Sub is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the Laws of the State of New Jersey. Each of the Parent Entities has all requisite corporate or similar power and authority to own, lease, and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. Each of the Parent Entities is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing, or operation of its assets or properties or conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or, where relevant, in good standing, would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

5.2 Power and Authority; Authorization.

(a) The Parent Entities have all requisite corporate or other legal entity power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance of the Parent Entities’ obligations under this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate or other legal entity action and no other corporate or other legal entity proceedings are necessary to authorize the performance of Parent’s or Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of, and to consummate, the Transactions, except, with respect to the Merger, for the Merger Filing.

(b) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Merger Sub and, assuming the due authorization, execution, and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, constitutes the valid and binding agreement of Parent and Merger Sub, is enforceable against Parent Merger Sub in accordance with its terms, subject to the General Enforceability Exceptions.

5.3 No Violation; Governmental Consents.

(a) The execution, delivery, and performance by the Parent Entities of this Agreement do not, and the performance and consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the provisions hereof will not, (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the organizational or governing documents of the Parent Entities, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach, violation, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, or acceleration of any obligation or right or adversely affect any rights of or benefit to Parent under any material Contract binding upon Parent or to which it is a party or by which or to which any of its properties, rights or assets are bound or subject, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties, rights or assets of Parent, other than Permitted Liens, or (iii) conflict with or violate any judgment, order, decree, or Law applicable to Parent or any of its properties, rights or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), any such conflict, breach, violation, default, termination, modification, cancellation, acceleration, right, loss, or Lien that would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Other than in connection with or in compliance with (i) the NJBCA, (ii) the Exchange Act, (iii) applicable state securities, takeover and “blue sky” Laws, and (iv) any applicable requirements of the NYSE, no authorization, permit, notification to, consent, or approval of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is necessary or required, under applicable Law, for the consummation by the Parent Entities of the Transactions, except for such authorizations, permits, notifications, consents, approvals, or filings that, if not obtained or made, would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

5.4 Ownership and Prior Operations of Merger Sub. All of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Merger Sub is, and at and immediately prior to the Effective Time will be, owned by Parent or a direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent. Merger Sub has been formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Transactions and prior to the Effective Time will have engaged in no other business activities, will have no assets, and will not have incurred liabilities or obligations of any nature, other than pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other Transactions.

5.5 Financing. Parent has delivered to the Company complete, correct and fully executed copies of (a) a commitment letter and related fee letters entered into by Parent (which in the case of such fee letters may be subject to redaction in a customary manner with respect to fee amounts, including fee amounts in any flex terms) (collectively, the “Debt Commitment Letter”) with the Debt Financing Sources pursuant to which such Debt Financing Sources have committed to provide to Parent, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, debt financing in the amounts set forth therein (such debt financing, the “Debt Financing”), and (b) commitment letters, each dated as of the date hereof (including all exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto, the “Equity Commitment Letters”, and together with the Debt Commitment Letter, the “Commitment Letters”), pursuant to which the Persons set forth on Section 5.5 of the Parent Disclosure Letter (each, an “Equity Investor”) have committed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to invest the cash amount set forth therein (the “Equity Financing” and, together with the Debt Financing, the “Financing”) for purposes of financing the Transactions, and paying related fees and expenses. The Equity Commitment Letters each provide that the Company is a third-party beneficiary thereof. As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and are valid and binding obligations of Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, in each case subject to the General Enforceability Exceptions. As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letters have not been amended or modified in any material respect, and the commitments contained in the Commitment Letters have not been withdrawn, rescinded or otherwise modified. The Commitment Letters delivered to the Company contain all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to fund the full amount of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters. Other than the Commitment Letters themselves (including the redacted fee letter provided to the Company as of the date hereof), there are no other side letters, agreements, contracts or other arrangements relating to the Financing. As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute or reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent under any term of, or a failure of any condition or inability to satisfy any conditions precedent to funding the full amount of the Financing under, the Commitment Letters or otherwise result in any portion of the Financing to be unavailable or delayed. As of the date hereof, Parent does not have reason to believe that (i) the Financing will not be made available to Parent on the date of the Closing, or (ii) that any portion of the Financing contemplated thereby will be unavailable to Parent at the Closing. Parent has fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees in connection with the Commitment Letters that are due and payable on or before the date of this Agreement. Each of Parent and Merger Sub affirms that it is not a condition to the Merger or any of its other obligations under this Agreement that Parent or Merger Sub obtain the Financing (including the Debt Financing) or any other financing for or related to any of the Transactions. The net proceeds of the Financing contemplated pursuant to the Commitment Letters will be amount sufficient to pay the Merger Consideration and all other required payments payable by the Parent Entities in connection with the Transactions and to consummate the Transactions, and to perform their obligations under this Agreement (the “Required Amount”). As of the date hereof, the conditions precedent set forth in the section of the Term Sheet (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter) captioned “Conditions to Funding of the Incremental Term Loans and the Cash Purchase Term Loan on the Closing Date” relating to (y) minimum Adjusted EBITDA (as defined therein) and (z) maximum total indebtedness and the ratio of such indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined therein), have been satisfied.

5.6 Solvency of the Surviving Corporation. Immediately following the Effective Time and after giving effect to the Merger, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be Solvent. For purposes of this Agreement, “Solvent” when used with respect to the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, means that, as of any date of determination, (a) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets, on a going concern basis, of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will, as of such date, exceed (i) the value of all “liabilities of such Person, including contingent and other liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable Laws of the United States governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, and (ii) the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries on its existing debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts become absolute and matured, (b) the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which they are engaged or proposed to be engaged following such date, (c) the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will be able to pay their aggregate liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature, and (d) Parent and Merger Sub do not intend for the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to incur, or believe that the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will incur, debts beyond their ability to pay such debts. The term “Solvency” shall have a correlative meaning. No transfer of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries.

5.7 Stock Ownership. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub nor any of Parent’s affiliates or associates is, nor at any time during the last five years has either Parent or Merger Sub or any affiliate or associate of either of the foregoing, been, an interested stockholder of the Company (each of “affiliate”, “associate” and “interested stockholder” as defined in 14A:10A-3 of the NJBCA). Neither Parent nor Merger Sub nor any of Parent’s Affiliates owns (directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record) any Company Common Stock or holds any rights to acquire or vote any Company Common Stock except pursuant to this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.8, no representation or warranty is made by the Parent Entities with respect to information or statements made or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement, which information or statements were not supplied by or on behalf of the Parent Entities.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required by this Section 6.3 to provide Parent or Parent’s Representatives with access to or to disclose information (i) that, in the reasonable good-faith judgment of the Company, is prohibited from being disclosed pursuant to the terms of a confidentiality agreement with a Third Party entered into prior to the date hereof or after the date hereof in the ordinary course of business (provided, however, that, at Parent’s written request, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (x) to obtain the required consent of such Third Party to such access or disclosure or (y) to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable access or disclosure not in violation of such consent requirement), (ii) the disclosure of which, in the reasonable good-faith judgment of the Company, would violate applicable Law (provided, however, that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure not in violation of such Law), (iii) the disclosure of which, in the reasonable good-faith judgment of the Company, would cause the loss of any attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege (provided, however, that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow for such access or disclosure to the maximum extent that such access or disclosure would not jeopardize attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege) or (iv) the disclosure of which, in the reasonable good-faith judgment of the Company, would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets or other competitively sensitive information of the Company or any of Company Subsidiary or any third parties.

(c) Each of the Company and Parent will hold, and will cause its Representatives and Affiliates to hold, any nonpublic information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.3, in confidence to the extent required by and in accordance with, and will otherwise comply with, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(d) The Company shall give notice to Parent and Parent shall give notice to the Company, as promptly as reasonably practicable, upon becoming aware of (i) any written notice or other written communication received by such Party from any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions, including the Merger, or from any other Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other Transactions, (ii) any legal Proceeding commenced or, to such Party’s Knowledge, threatened in writing against such Party or any of its Subsidiaries, directors, or officers (in their capacity as such) or otherwise relating to, involving or affecting such Party or any of its Subsidiaries, directors, or officers (in their capacity as such), in each case in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any other Transaction, (iii) any change, effect, circumstance, condition, development or event that (A) has had or is reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or (B) the Company or Parent reasonably believes would give rise, individually or in the aggregate, to the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.2, or Section 7.3, as applicable; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.3(d) shall not cure any breach of any representation or warranty requiring disclosure of such matter prior to the date hereof or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to any Party; provided, further, that either Party’s obligations, actions or inactions pursuant to this Section 6.3(d), in each case, in and of themselves, shall be deemed excluded for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.3(b), as applicable, has been satisfied. The Company shall be entitled to direct and control the defense of any legal Proceeding commenced or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened in writing against the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, or their respective directors or officers (in their capacity as such) or otherwise relating to, involving or affecting such Persons in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any other Transaction (the “Company Transaction Litigation”); provided, however, that the Company (a) shall consult with, and shall give Parent the right to, participate in the defense, negotiation or settlement of any Company Transaction Litigation (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected), (b) shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to Parent’s advice with respect to such Company Transaction Litigation, and (c) shall not compromise or settle, or agree to compromise or settle, any Company Transaction Litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, any action, litigation or other proceedings related to Dissenting Shares will be governed by Section 3.2.

(e) During the period prior to the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, the Company shall deliver to Parent, (i) as soon as practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the end of each month following the date hereof, copies of unaudited consolidated financial statements consisting of the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the related statements of income and retained earnings, stockholders’ equity and cash flow for the period beginning from the then current fiscal year to the end of such fiscal month, (ii) as soon as practicable, and in any event within five (5) days after the end of each calendar week following the date hereof, copies of reports, delivered in the form attached hereto as Schedule 6.3(e), for the previous calendar week, and (iii) as soon as practicable, and in any event by the Monday following the end of each calendar week following the date hereof, a summary of the Company’s then current cash balances in its bank accounts. The financial statements delivered pursuant to this Section 6.3(e) will be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, subject to normal and recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not be material in amount) and the absence of notes.

6.4 Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party will use its respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger, as soon as practicable after the date hereof, including (i) preparing and filing or otherwise providing, in consultation with the other Party and as promptly as practicable and advisable after the date hereof, all documentation to effect all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings, and other documents to obtain as promptly as reasonably practicable all waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations necessary or advisable to be obtained from any Governmental Authority in order to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger, (ii) taking all actions as may be necessary, subject to the limitations in this Section 6.4, to obtain (and cooperating with each other in obtaining) all such waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, licenses, registrations, permits, authorizations, orders, and approvals, and (iii) providing all notices as required pursuant to the Company Warrants. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts not to, and the Company shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, (i) take any action after the date of this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any permission, approval or consent from any such Governmental Authority necessary to be obtained prior to the Closing and (ii) take or cause to be taken any action that would reasonably be expected to materially delay, impede, or prevent the consummation of the Transactions on or before the Outside Date.

(b) In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, in the event that Parent reasonably requests the Company to do so, and after good-faith consultation with the Company with respect thereto, the Company shall give any notices to third parties required under Contracts (other than Contracts that may be canceled or terminated for convenience), and the Company shall use, and cause each of Company Subsidiaries to use, its commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain any Third Party consents to any Contracts (other than Contracts that may be canceled or terminated for convenience) that are necessary to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any consent or other similar fee, payment, or consideration, make any other concession or provide any additional security (including a guaranty), to obtain such Third Party consents (except, in the case of the Company, if requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and reimbursed or indemnified for by Parent).

6.5 Publicity. From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, neither the Company nor Parent, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement or disclosure with respect to the Merger, the other Transactions, or this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, unless such Party determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is required by applicable Law or by any listing agreement with or the listing rules of a national securities exchange or trading market to issue or cause the publication of such press release or other public announcement or disclosure with respect to the Merger, the other Transactions, or this Agreement, in which event such Party shall endeavor, on a basis reasonable under the circumstances, to provide a meaningful opportunity to the other Party to review and comment upon such press release or other announcement or disclosure in advance and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto; provided, however, that (i) the Parties shall not be required by this Section 6.5 to provide any such review or opportunity to comment to the other Parties relating to any dispute between the Parties relating to this Agreement, (ii) each Party may make statements that are consistent with previous press releases, public disclosures, or public statements made by Parent or the Company in compliance with this Section 6.5 or make statements regarding the actual or expected financial impact (including earnings guidance) of the Transactions on such Party, and (iii) the obligations set forth in this Section 6.5 shall not apply to (x) any communication regarding or in response to or in connection with an Acquisition Proposal or a Change of Recommendation or any matters related thereto in accordance with Section 6.6 or (y) existing or prospective general or limited partners, equityholders, members, managers or investors of Parent or any Affiliates of such Person, in each case who are subject to customary confidentiality restrictions.

6.6 No Solicitation by the Company.

(a) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.6, from and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, the Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries, and its and their respective officers and directors not to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and the Company Subsidiaries’ other Representatives to not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of providing information) any inquiry with respect to, or the making, submission or announcement of, an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) participate in any negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any information relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary in connection with, an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (iii) adopt, approve, endorse, or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, endorse, or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; (iv) make any public statement inconsistent with or withdraw, change, amend, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, or qualify, or otherwise publicly propose to withdraw, change, amend, modify, or qualify, in each case, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation; (v) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement; (vi) approve, authorize, or cause or permit the Company or any Company Subsidiary to enter into, any merger agreement, acquisition agreement, reorganization agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle or similar definitive agreement with respect to, or any other definitive agreement or commitment providing for, any Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into in accordance with this Section 6.6) (a “Company Acquisition Agreement”); or (vii) call or convene a meeting of the Company Shareholders to consider a proposal that would reasonably be expected to materially impair, prevent, or delay the consummation of the Transactions (any act described in clauses (iii), (iv), or (v) that is taken, authorized, or, solely with respect to clause (v), permitted by the Company Board of Directors, a “Change of Recommendation”). The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers and directors to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and the Company Subsidiaries’ other Representatives to, immediately cease any and all solicitation, encouragement, discussions, or negotiations with any persons (or provision of any information to any persons) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. Promptly after the date hereof, the Company shall terminate access to any physical or electronic data rooms relating to such person’s consideration of an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall enforce, and not waive, terminate, or modify without Parent’s prior written consent, any confidentiality, standstill or similar provision in any confidentiality, standstill, or other agreement entered into prior to the date hereof with any person in connection with such person’s consideration of an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, that, if the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel that the failure to waive a particular standstill provision would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may, with prior written notice to Parent, waive such standstill solely to the extent necessary to permit the applicable Person (if it has not been solicited in violation of Section 6.6(a)(i) or (ii)) to make, on a confidential basis to the Company Board of Directors, an Acquisition Proposal, conditioned upon such person agreeing to disclosure of such Acquisition Proposal to Parent, in each case, as contemplated by this Section 6.6. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in this Section 6.6(a), if the Company receives, prior to the Company Shareholder Approval being obtained, a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry, proposal, or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 6.6(a)(i) or (ii), which the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors (i) constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (ii) that failure to participate in negotiations with or provide information to the Person proposing such Acquisition Proposal would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board of Directors, the Company and the Company’s Representatives may contact the Person or any of its Representatives who has made such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, or offer to (x) refer the inquiring, proposing or offering person to this Section 6.6, or (y) solely to clarify or ascertain facts regarding (and not to negotiate or engage in any discussions regarding or relating to) the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, or offer and the Person making it so that the Company may inform itself about such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, or offer and the person making it.

(b) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in this Agreement, if the Company or any of its Representatives receives, prior to the Company Shareholder Approval being obtained, an unsolicited, bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 6.6(a)(i) or (ii), which the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors (i) constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and (ii) that failure to participate in negotiations with or provide information to the Person proposing such Acquisition Proposal would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board of Directors, then in either event the Company may take the following actions: (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives, if, and only if, prior to so furnishing such information, the Company receives from such person an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and the Company also provides Parent, prior to or substantially concurrently with (and in any event within two Business Days after) the time such information is provided or made available to such Person, any nonpublic information furnished to such other Person that was not previously furnished to Parent, and (B) engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person and its Representatives with respect to such Acquisition Proposal.

(c) The Company shall promptly (and in any event two Business Days after, to the Knowledge of the Company or the knowledge of its financial advisor, its receipt) notify Parent of the Company’s or any Company Subsidiary’s or its or their respective Representatives’ receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiries, proposals or offers that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice shall indicate the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, or offer, and the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, proposal or offer, or the nature of the information requested pursuant to such inquiry, including unredacted copies of any written proposals or offers, including proposed written agreements received by the Company or its Representatives relating to such Acquisition Proposal or, if such Acquisition Proposal is not in writing, a reasonably detailed written description of the material terms and conditions thereof. Without limiting the Company’s other obligations under this Section 6.6, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status (including any material developments related thereto) of any such Acquisition Proposal, and promptly (and in any event within two Business Days after) notify Parent of any material amendments to the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal and promptly (and in any event within two Business Days after) provide to Parent copies of all proposed written agreements relating to an Acquisition Proposal received by the Company or its Representatives. The Company agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, enter into any agreement with any Person which directly or indirectly prohibits the Company from providing any information to Parent in accordance with, or otherwise complying with, this Section 6.6.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.6 to the contrary, but subject to Section 6.6(e), at any time prior to the Company Shareholder Approval being obtained, the Company Board of Directors may:

(i) make a Change of Recommendation (only of the type contemplated by Section 6.6(a)(iv) or Section 6.6(a)(v)) in response to an Intervening Event if the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, or

(ii) make a Change of Recommendation (of the type contemplated by Section 6.6(a)(iv) or Section 6.6(a)(v)) and cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.1(h) in order to enter into a definitive agreement providing for an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal received after the date of this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, did not result from a breach of Section 6.6(a)(i) or (ii) and such Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn) if the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary shall enter into any Company Acquisition Agreement unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 8.1.

(e) Prior to the Company taking any action permitted:

(i) under Section 6.6(d)(i), (A) the Company shall provide Parent with three Business Days’ prior written notice advising Parent that the Company Board of Directors intends to effect a Change of Recommendation and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor, (B) during such three-Business Day period (which period shall expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the third Business Day), the Company shall cause its executive officers and direct its other Representatives to negotiate in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) any proposal by Parent to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a manner that would obviate the need to effect a Change of Recommendation, and (C) at the end of such three-Business Day period the Company Board of Directors again makes the determination under Section 6.6(d)(i) (after in good faith taking into account any amendments to this Agreement proposed by Parent), or

(ii) under Section 6.6(d)(ii), (A) the Company shall provide Parent with three-Business Days’ prior written notice advising Parent that the Company Board of Directors intends to take such action and specifying the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal, including a copy of any proposed definitive documentation, (B) during such three-Business Day period (which period shall expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the third Business Day), the Company shall cause its executive officers and direct its other Representatives to negotiate in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) any proposal by Parent to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that such Acquisition Proposal would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal, and (C) at the end of such three-Business Day period the Company Board of Directors again makes the determination under Section 6.6(d)(ii) (after in good faith taking into account the amendments to this Agreement proposed by Parent).

With respect to Section 6.6(e)(ii), if there are any material amendments, revisions, or changes to the material terms of any such Superior Proposal (including any revision to the amount, form, or mix of consideration Company Shareholders would receive as a result of the Superior Proposal), the Company shall notify Parent of each such amendment, revision, or change in compliance with Section 6.6(c) and the applicable four-Business Day period shall be extended until at least two Business Days after the time that Parent receives notification from the Company of each such revision, and the Company Board of Directors shall not take any such action permitted under Section 6.6(d)(ii) prior to the end of any such period (which period shall expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the applicable day) as so extended in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.6(e).

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board of Directors from (i) taking and disclosing to Company Shareholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 or 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to Company Shareholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (iii) making any disclosure to Company Shareholders with regard to an Acquisition Proposal if the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, which actions, in the case of clauses (i)-(iii), shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a Change of Recommendation so long as any such disclosure (x) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) only, includes an express reaffirmation of the Company Board Recommendation, without any amendment, withdrawal, alteration, modification, or qualification thereof and (y) does not include any statement that constitutes, and does not otherwise constitute, a Change of Recommendation.

6.7 Preparation of the Proxy Statement: Company Shareholders Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement but in no event later than ten (10) days after the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and distribute to Parent a preliminary proxy statement and the Company shall consider in good faith any comments reasonably proposed by Parent for inclusion therein. The Company shall, in no event later than fifteen (15) days after the date hereof, prepare and file with the SEC the preliminary proxy statement. The Company shall promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any request from the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the preliminary proxy statement and shall promptly provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC and its staff, on the other hand, relating to the preliminary proxy statement. Each of the Company and Parent shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments of the SEC with respect to the preliminary proxy statement. Prior to filing any amendment or supplement thereto to the preliminary proxy statement, or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, subject to approval of the SEC or its staff, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (which comments shall be considered by the Company in good faith), and to the extent practicable, the Company will provide Parent with the opportunity to participate in any substantive calls between the Company or any of its representatives and the SEC concerning the preliminary proxy statement, except, in each case, to the extent such disclosure relates to an Acquisition Proposal or a Change of Recommendation. Each of the Parent Entities shall furnish to the Company all information as may be reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation, of the Proxy Statement and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Company. The Company shall file the Proxy Statement with the SEC and cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to its stockholders of record.

(b) If, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, any information relating to Parent or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by Parent or the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, so that it would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, at the time and in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties, and, to the extent required by applicable Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be prepared and, following a reasonable opportunity for the other Party to review and comment on such amendment or supplement, promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to Company Shareholders.

(c) Subject to the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, the Company shall (i) as promptly as reasonably practicable conduct a “broker search” in accordance with Rule 14a-13 of the Exchange Act for a record date for the Company Shareholders Meeting and (ii) duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold a meeting of Company Shareholders for the purpose of seeking the Company Shareholder Approval (as it may be adjourned or postponed as provided below, the “Company Shareholders Meeting”) as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the Company learns that the Proxy Statement will not be reviewed or that the SEC has no further comments thereon, and the Company shall submit such proposal to Company Shareholders at the Company Shareholders Meeting and shall not submit any other proposal to Company Shareholders in connection with the Company Shareholders Meeting (other than an advisory vote regarding merger-related compensation and a customary proposal regarding adjournment of the Company Shareholders Meeting and, if the Company Shareholders Meeting is also the Company’s annual shareholder meeting, proposals customarily brought in connection with the Company’s annual shareholder meeting) without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). The Company agrees to provide Parent with reasonably detailed periodic updates concerning proxy solicitation results on a timely basis (including, if requested, promptly providing daily voting reports in the last seven days prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting) and to give written notice (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be given via email) to Parent one day prior to, and on the date of, the Company Shareholders Meeting, indicating whether, as of such date, sufficient proxies representing the requisite vote of the Company Shareholders have been obtained.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not adjourn or postpone the Company Shareholders Meeting without Parent’s prior written consent; provided that without Parent’s prior written consent, the Company may make one or more successive adjournments or postponements of the Company Shareholders Meeting (i) after consultation with Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement required by Law is provided to the Company Shareholders within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Shareholders Meeting or (ii) if there are not sufficient affirmative votes in person or by proxy at such meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Shareholders Meeting or to obtain the Company Shareholder Approval, to allow reasonable additional time for solicitation of proxies for purposes of obtaining a quorum or the Company Shareholder Approval; provided that, unless agreed to in writing by Parent, each such adjournment or postponement shall be for a period of no more than ten Business Days; provided that no postponement contemplated by this clause (ii) shall be permitted if it would require a change to the record date for the Company Shareholders Meeting. Unless the Company Board of Directors has validly made a Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 6.6, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (A) solicit from Company Shareholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and (B) take all other action reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the Company Shareholder Approval, including by including the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement. Notwithstanding any Change of Recommendation validly made in accordance with Section 6.6, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (x) the Company Shareholders Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the Company Shareholders for approval at the Company Shareholders Meeting, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve the Company of such obligation and (y) all other obligations of the Parties hereunder shall continue in full force and effect and such obligations shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure, or communication to the Company of any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal), except as expressly set forth herein.

6.8 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take actions reasonably necessary to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company, or will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.9 Takeover Statutes. The Parties shall use, and shall cause the members of their respective Boards of Directors to use, their respective reasonable best efforts (a) to take all action necessary so that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to the Merger or any of the other Transactions and (b) if any such Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to any of the foregoing, to take all action necessary so that the Merger and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to eliminate or minimize the effect of such Takeover Statute on the Merger and the other Transactions. No Change of Recommendation shall change, or be deemed to change, or permit the Company or the Company Board of Directors to change, in any manner or respect, the approval of the Company Board of Directors for purposes of causing any Takeover Statute to be inapplicable to the Merger or any of the other Transactions.

6.10 Delisting. Each of the Parties agrees to cooperate with the other Parties in taking, or causing to be taken, all actions necessary to delist the Company Common Stock from the NYSE and terminate its registration under the Exchange Act; provided that such delisting and termination shall not be effective until at or after the Effective Time.

6.11 Obligations of Merger Sub. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any violation of the obligations of Merger Sub under this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Parent. Between the date hereof and the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Merger Sub shall not, and Parent shall not permit Merger Sub to, engage in any activity of any nature except as provided in, expressly contemplated by, or in furtherance of the Transactions.

6.12 Employee Matters.

(a) Parent shall assume, honor and fulfill all obligations under the Company Plans in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the date hereof or as subsequently amended or terminated as permitted pursuant to the terms of such Company Plans and this Agreement.

(b) Effective as of the Effective Time and through the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall provide to each employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary who continues to be employed by Parent or any Subsidiary thereof following the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”), (i) base salary or wage rate, bonus and other cash incentive compensation opportunities, that are no less favorable than the base salary or wage rate, bonus and other cash incentive compensation opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing or provided to similarly-situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries, in Parent’s sole discretion, and (ii) employee benefits (including severance and health and welfare benefits, but excluding defined benefit pension plan benefits) that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable to such Continuing Employee than those Company Plans set forth on Section 4.16 of the Company Disclosure Letter as in effect immediately prior to the Closing or the employee benefit plans of Parent and its Subsidiaries providing benefits to similarly-situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries, in Parent’s sole discretion.

(c) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits, but expressly not for the purpose of extending the period set forth in Section 6.12(b) or the items covered therein and excluding any equity based compensation plan and long-term incentive plan) under the employee benefit plans of Parent and its Subsidiaries providing benefits to any Continuing Employees after the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), each Continuing Employee shall, subject to applicable law and applicable tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Plan in which such Continuing 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, (i) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time (other than any administrative delays in connection with any transition to any New Plan), in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is of the same type as the Company Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (ii)(A) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Parent or its applicable Subsidiary shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all preexisting condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, and (B) Parent and its applicable Subsidiary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible 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.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Continuing Employee any right to continue in the employ or service of Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any Continuing Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, subject to the terms of any Company Plan. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.12 shall (i) be deemed or construed to be an amendment or other modification of any Company Plan or employee benefit plan of Parent or Merger Sub or (ii) create any Third Party rights in any current or former service provider of the Company or its Affiliates (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof).

6.13 Director and Officer Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For six years from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and all current and former holders of security holders of the Company that have or had a right to appoint any of the foregoing (the persons entitled to be indemnified pursuant to such provisions, and all other current and former directors, managers and officers of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, and all current and former holders of securities of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that have or had a right to appoint any of the foregoing, being referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including advancing attorneys’ fees and expenses prior to the final disposition of any actual or threatened claim, suit, Proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law or the Company Governing Documents or the organizational documents of the applicable Company Subsidiary (as applicable)), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened Proceeding in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger or any of the other Transactions), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at, or after the Effective Time, in connection with such Persons serving as a director, officer, employee, or other fiduciary of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or of any other Person if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law or the Company Governing Documents or the organizational documents of the applicable Company Subsidiary (as applicable) or any indemnification agreements with such Persons in existence on the date of this Agreement. The Parties agree that all rights to elimination of liability, indemnification, and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in the Company Governing Documents or the organizational documents of the applicable Company Subsidiary (as applicable) or in any indemnification agreement of the Company or a Company Subsidiary with any Indemnified Party in existence on the date of this Agreement, shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof, and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years after the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such Indemnified Parties, except to the extent, and only to the extent, required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Indemnified Party notifies the Surviving Corporation on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time of a matter in respect of which such Person intends in good faith to seek elimination of liability, indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to this Section 6.13, the provisions of this Section 6.13 shall continue in effect with respect to such matter until the final disposition of all Proceedings relating thereto.

(b) For six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect the provisions in (i) Company Governing Documents and (ii) any indemnification agreement of the Company or a Company Subsidiary with any Indemnified Party in existence on the date of this Agreement, except to the extent that such agreement provides for an earlier termination, in each case, regarding elimination of liability, indemnification of officers, directors, and employees and advancement of expenses that are in existence on the date hereof, and no such provision shall be amended, modified, or repealed in any manner that would adversely affect the rights or protections thereunder of any such Indemnified Party in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger or any of the other Transactions).

(c) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase a six-year prepaid “tail” policy on terms and conditions providing coverage retentions, limits, and other material terms substantially equivalent to the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries with respect to matters arising at or prior to the Effective Time.

(d) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of expenses as provided by this Section 6.13 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party may at any time be entitled. No right or remedy herein conferred by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity, under contract or otherwise. The assertion of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent assertion of any other right or remedy. Parent hereby acknowledges that the Indemnified Parties have or may, in the future, have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by other Persons.

(e) In the event Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (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, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.13. The rights and obligations under this Section 6.13 shall survive consummation of the Merger and shall not be terminated or amended in a manner that is adverse to any Indemnified Party without the written consent of such Indemnified Party. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Indemnified Parties shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.13, each of whom may enforce the provisions thereof.

6.14 Financing Cooperation.

(b) Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives and Affiliates from and against any and all liabilities or losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with any action taken pursuant to this Section 6.14 and any information provided pursuant to this Section 6.14, except in the event such liabilities or losses arose out of or result from the (i) willful misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, or (ii) (A) any material breach by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives under this Agreement or (B) any material misstatement or omission of material fact in information provided, in writing, to Parent or the Debt Financing Sources by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives or Affiliates. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(b), Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (including those of its Representatives) in connection with taking action required or requested by Parent pursuant to this Section 6.14, except in the event such costs arose out of or result from the willful misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Representatives. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions contained in this Section 6.14 represent the sole obligation of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates and Representatives with respect to cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Financing and no other provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits and the Company Disclosure Letter) shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations.

(c) Until the earlier of the Closing and such time as this Agreement is terminated in accordance with ARTICLE VIII, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use its reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to arrange and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letters (including the “flex” provisions contained in any fee letters), including by using reasonable best efforts to: (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letters; (ii) negotiate as promptly as possible, and enter into, definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing; (iii) satisfy (or obtain a waiver thereof) and to cause their Representatives to satisfy, on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Representatives in the Commitment Letters; (4) assuming that all conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter have been satisfied or waived, cause the Debt Financing to be consummated at or prior to the Closing; (5) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letters; and (6) comply with its obligations under the Commitment Letters. Parent and Merger Sub shall keep the Company and its Representatives informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail with respect to all material activity concerning the status of its efforts to obtain the Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company prompt written notice of (i) any material breach, default, termination or repudiation by Parent, or any other party thereto of which Parent or Merger Sub becomes actually aware, under the Commitment Letters, (ii) the receipt by Parent or Merger Sub of any written notice from any Debt Financing Source or Equity Investor with respect to any actual or potential material breach, termination or repudiation by such party to the Commitment Letters, of any provisions thereto, including with respect to any material dispute related to any Financing with respect to the obligation of the Debt Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing or the Equity Investors to fund the Equity Financing, in each case, on the Closing Date and (iii) if at any time for any reason Parent or Merger Sub believes in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Commitment Letters or definitive agreements related to the Financing. Parent shall promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Company and its Representatives relating to the Financing.

(d) Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall agree to, or permit, without the prior written consent of the Company, any assignment, amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, replacement, restatement or substitution of, or any waiver by Parent or Merger Sub of any material provision or remedy under, the Commitment Letters (including with respect to any alternative financing intended to replace or be substituted for, in whole or in part, any portion of the Financing) if such assignment, amendment, supplement, modification, replacement, restatement, substitution or waiver would reasonably be expected to (1) reduce the aggregate amount of the net cash proceeds of the Financing to be funded on the Closing Date, to an amount less than the Required Amount, (2) impose new or additional conditions precedent or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions precedent to the receipt of the Financing, in each case in a manner that could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the Financing (the prohibited conditions described in this clause (2) are referred to herein as “Prohibited Conditions”), (3) adversely and materially impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against other parties to the Commitment Letters with respect to the Financing, or (4) prevent or impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that Parent may amend, modify, assign, supplement, substitute, replace or restate the Commitment Letters to add (A) lenders, lead arrangers, book runners, syndication agents and similar entities, or (B) increase the aggregate amount of the Financing, subject to the foregoing clauses (1) through (4).

(e) In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable in the manner or from the sources contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letters for any reason whatsoever, then (i) Parent shall promptly so notify the Company of such event and the reason therefor and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub shall use reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, and negotiate and enter into commitment letters and/or definitive agreements with respect to, alternative financing arrangements in an amount at least equal to the amount, when added with the Equity Financing, sufficient to pay the Required Amount and which is not subject to any conditions constituting Prohibited Conditions, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (and in any event no later than the Closing Date) (A) on terms and conditions not materially less favorable in the aggregate to Parent and Merger Sub than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, (B) containing conditions to draw, conditions to Closing and other terms that would reasonably be expected to affect the availability thereof that (1) are not, in any material respect, more onerous than those conditions and terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, and (2) would not reasonably be expected to delay the Closing or make the Closing materially less likely to occur. Parent and Merger Sub shall not be required to (x) pay fees in excess of one hundred fifty percent (150%) above those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement, taking into account any flex terms, or (y) seek equity financing from any Person other than the Equity Investors or in an amount in excess of the Equity Financing contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter as of the date hereof. Parent shall promptly deliver to the Company a true and complete fully executed new financing commitment letter with respect to such alternative financing. In the event any alternative debt financing is obtained, arranged or committed to, the term “Debt Financing” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any such alternative financing (in lieu of the portion of the Debt Financing replaced thereby), the term “Debt Financing Sources” and “Investors”, as applicable, shall include the financial institutions and other Persons providing the alternative debt financing and the term “Debt Commitment Letter” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any new debt financing commitment letter(s), related term sheets and redacted fee letters obtained by Parent in respect of any such alternative financing.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.14(a), (i) none of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries nor their respective Representatives shall be required to take any action that would (A) reasonably be expected to conflict with, violate, breach or otherwise contravene their respective organizational documents, (B) in the good faith determination of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives, as applicable, materially and adversely interfere with the business or operations of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives, (C) cause any condition to Closing set forth in ARTICLE VII to not be satisfied or otherwise cause any breach of this Agreement, (D) require delivery of any legal opinions or accountants’ cold comfort letters or reliance letters, (E) subject any director, manager, officer or employee of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives to any actual or potential personal liability, (F) provide any information consisting of attorney work product or to the extent the provision thereof would reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of legal privilege, (G) require the delivery of any projections or pro forma financial statements to any third parties (other than the Debt Financing Sources), provided, however, that any such projections delivered to the Debt Financing Sources (x) shall be providing in the ordinary course of business, (y) shall be in form and substance consistent with the Company’s past practices, and (z) shall not be required to address any period beyond one (1) year after the date of delivery of such projections, (H) require the delivery of any financial statements in a form or subject to a different standard than those provided to Parent on or prior to the date hereof, or (I) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary to authorize any corporate action or execute any agreement that would be effective or operative prior to Closing, and (ii) upon the occurrence of the Closing Date, no Affiliate of the Company (other than the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on or after the Closing) shall be required to execute, deliver or enter into definitive documentation relating to the Financing.

(g) No later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall transfer, to a newly opened Emigrant Bank account (the “Emigrant Account”), an amount of cash equal to at least $17,500,000 but no more than $20,000,000, provided, however, if Parent expressly consents in writing to any action or inaction by the Company pursuant to Section ‎6.1(b) that results in the Company maintaining an amount in Cash that is less than $17,500,000, the Company may transfer such reduced amount to the Emigrant Account. No transfer of cash to the Emigrant Account pursuant to this Section 6.14(g) shall be deemed to be a breach of Section 6.1.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Party or Parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and there shall be no liability on the part of the Parent Entities or the Company, except that the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 6.14(b), this Section 8.2, and ARTICLE IX (excluding Sections 9.3 and 9.5) shall survive termination; provided, that nothing herein shall relieve any Party from liability for Fraud prior to such termination.

(b) Termination Fees.

(i) If (A) Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(g), (B) after the date hereof and prior to the date of such termination (or prior to the Company Shareholder Approval in the case of termination pursuant to Section 8.1(g)), a bona fide Acquisition Proposal is publicly disclosed (whether by the Company or a Third Party), and is not publicly withdrawn at least three Business Days prior to the earlier of the date of the Company Shareholders Meeting and the date of such termination and (C) within eight (8) months of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal is consummated or a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal is entered into, then on or prior to the date any such Acquisition Proposal is consummated, the Company shall pay to Parent a fee of Nine Hundred Thousand dollars ($900,000) in cash (the “Company Termination Fee”). Solely for purposes of this Section 8.2(b)(i), the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Annex I, except that all references to “15%” and “85%” therein shall be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(ii) If Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f), within two Business Days after such termination, the Company shall pay to Parent the Company Termination Fee.

(iii) If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h), substantially concurrently with or prior to such termination, the Company shall pay to Parent the Company Termination Fee.

(iv) If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i) (or pursuant to any provision of Section 8.1 under circumstances in which the Company would have been entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i)), Parent shall pay to the Company a fee of One Million Eight Hundred Sixty-Three Thousand One Hundred Seventy dollars and Thirty-Four cents ($1,863,170.34) in cash (the “Parent Termination Fee”) within two Business Days after such termination.

(v) In the event any amount is payable (A) by the Company pursuant to the preceding subsections (i), (ii) or (iii), or (B) by Parent pursuant to the preceding subsection (iv), such amount shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Parent or the Company, as the case may be (which account shall be designated by Parent or the Company, as the case may be, upon request by the other Party to allow the Company or Parent, as the case may be, to pay or cause to be paid to Parent any amounts payable hereunder within the time periods required by this Section 8.2). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay the Company Termination Fee or Parent be obligated to pay the Parent Termination Fee, as the case may be, on more than one occasion.

(c) If Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Company shall, promptly upon request by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, reimburse Parent and Merger Sub for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Merger Sub (including those of its Representatives) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In no event shall the amount paid by the Company to Parent hereunder exceed the amount of the Company Termination Fee.

(d) Each Party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the Parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. Each Party further acknowledges that the Company Termination Fee and the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, shall not a penalty, but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Party receiving such amount in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions. In addition, if the Company or Parent, as applicable, fails to pay in a timely manner any amount due pursuant to Section 8.2(b), then (i) the payor Party shall reimburse the payee Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including disbursements and fees of counsel) incurred in the collection of such overdue amounts, including in connection with any related Proceedings commenced and (ii) the payor Party shall pay to the payee Party interest on the amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b) from and including the date payment of such amounts were due to but excluding the date of actual payment at the prime rate set forth in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except the right to seek monetary damages for Fraud (solely as it relates to the representations and warranties expressly made in ARTICLE IV) occurring prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, and without limiting the Parent Entities’ right to specific performance in accordance with Section 9.11, (A) the Company Termination Fee (and any other amounts expressly contemplated by this Section 8.2, if any) shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy available to the Parent Entities in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions in any circumstance in which the Company Termination Fee becomes due and payable and is paid by the Company in accordance with this Agreement, and (B) upon Parent’s receipt of the full Company Termination Fee (and any other amounts contemplated by this Section 8.2) pursuant to this Section 8.2 in circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is payable, none of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any of their respective former, current, or future officers, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates, or agents shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, except for the right to seek monetary damages for Fraud (solely as it relates to the representations and warranties expressly made in ARTICLE IV). For the avoidance of doubt, Parent may seek specific performance to cause the Company to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 9.11 and the payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.2, but in no event shall Parent be entitled to both (i) specific performance to cause the Company to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 9.11 and (ii) the payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.2.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except the right to seek monetary damages for Fraud occurring prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, and without limiting the Company’s right to specific performance in accordance with Section 9.11 (except as expressly limited therein), (A) the Parent Termination Fee (and any other amounts expressly contemplated by this Section 8.2, if any) shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy available to the Company in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions in any circumstance in which the Parent Termination Fee becomes due and payable and is paid by Parent in accordance with this Agreement, and (B) upon the Company’s receipt of the full Parent Termination Fee (and any other amounts contemplated by this Section 8.2) pursuant to this Section 8.2 in circumstances in which the Parent Termination Fee is payable, none of the Parent Entities or any of their respective former, current, or future officers, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates, or agents shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, except for the right to seek monetary damages for Fraud. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may seek specific performance to cause the Parent Entities to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 9.11 and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.2, but in no event shall the Company be entitled to both (i) specific performance to cause the Parent Entities to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 9.11 and (ii) the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.2. In no event shall the Company or its Affiliates be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement against any of the Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company’s right to receive payment of the Parent Termination Fee shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Company and its Affiliates against the Debt Financing Sources and any of their respective former, current, or future general or limited partners, stockholders, managers, members, directors, officers, affiliates, employees, representatives or agents.

9.2 Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries.

(a) This Agreement (together with any Exhibits, Annexes, and including the Company Disclosure Letter), the Confidentiality Agreement, and the Commitment Letters constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the Transactions and supersede all prior agreements, arrangements, and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

(b) Except (i) for the right of holders of shares of Company Common Stock to receive the Merger Consideration, which shall be enforceable by such holders after the Effective Time, (ii) for the rights of the holders of Company Equity Awards to receive such amounts as provided for in Section 3.4, which shall be enforceable by such holders after the Effective Time, and (iii) as provided in Section 6.13, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Debt Financing Source shall be an express third-party beneficiary with respect to Section 6.14(g) (Financing Cooperation), Section 8.2(c) (Effect of Termination), Section 8.2(f) (Effect of Termination), this Section 9.2 (Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries), the proviso in Section 9.3(a) (Amendment and Modification; Waiver), the last sentence of Section 9.4 (Assignment), Section 9.7(c) (Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction), Section 9.8 (Waiver of Jury Trial), Section 9.10 (Non-Recourse), and Section 9.11(b) (Enforcement; Remedies) (the “FS Provisions”).

9.3 Amendment and Modification; Waiver.

(a) Subject to applicable Law and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented by written agreement of each of the Parties, provided, that the FS Provisions shall not be amended, supplemented, waived, or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.

(b) At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, either the Company, on the one hand, or the Parent Entities, on the other hand, may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, as applicable, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made by the other Parties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for their respective benefit contained herein. Any agreement on the part of the Parent Entities or the Company to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Parent or the Company, as applicable. No failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

9.4 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, but without relieving any Party of any obligation hereunder, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub may assign this Agreement (in whole or in part) to the Debt Financing Sources who shall be permitted to exercise any or all of the rights and remedies of Parent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sub hereunder and transfer and assign such rights to any purchaser upon foreclosure or other exercise of remedies as to such collateral assignment or security interest without the prior consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

9.5 Non-Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time.

9.6 Expenses; Transfer Taxes.

THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH THEY MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY BROUGHT IN SUCH COURT OR ANY DEFENSE OF INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH DISPUTE. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT A JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH DISPUTE MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. THIS CONSENT TO JURISDICTION IS BEING GIVEN SOLELY FOR PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IS NOT INTENDED TO, AND SHALL NOT, CONFER CONSENT TO JURISDICTION WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER DISPUTE IN WHICH A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BECOME INVOLVED. EACH PARTY CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED BY ANY OTHER PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY PROCEEDING OF THE NATURE SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 9.7(b) BY THE MAILING OF A COPY THEREOF IN THE MANNER SPECIFIED BY THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9.1.

(i) ALL ACTIONS AGAINST THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE FINANCING OR THE PERFORMANCE THEREOF OR THE TRANSACTIONS, WHETHER AT LAW OR EQUITY, IN CONTRACT, IN TORT, OR OTHERWISE, WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED IN AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN THE STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK; AND

(ii) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE (A) THAT ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING, WHETHER IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONTRACT, IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, INVOLVING THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATING TO, THE MERGER, THE FINANCING OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES THEREUNDER OR RELATED THERETO WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AND ANY APPELLATE COURT THEREOF, AND EACH SUCH PARTY SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT; (B) NOT TO BRING OR PERMIT ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES TO BRING OR SUPPORT ANYONE ELSE IN BRINGING ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER COURT; (C) THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE, OR DOCUMENT BY REGISTERED MAIL ADDRESSED TO THEM AT THEIR RESPECTIVE ADDRESSES PROVIDED IN ANY APPLICABLE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER WILL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM FOR ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT; (D) TO WAIVE AND HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH ANY OF THEM MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF, AND THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF, ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT; (E) TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING, (F) ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING WILL BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK; AND (G) THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

9.9 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and, unless the effect of such invalidity or unenforceability would prevent the Parties from realizing the major portion of the economic benefits of this Agreement and the Transactions that they currently anticipate obtaining therefrom, shall not render invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affect the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

9.10 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as Parties. Except to the extent named as a Party to or a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and then only to the extent of the specific obligations of such Parties set forth in this Agreement, no past, present or future shareholder, member, partner, manager, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, agent or Representative of any party to this Agreement will have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement (other than the Equity Investors to the extent set forth in the Equity Commitment Letters). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company, any Company Subsidiary, nor any of their respective Affiliates will have any rights or claims, regardless of the legal theory under which such right or claim may be asserted, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory, and will not seek or support any such rights or claims against any of the Debt Financing Sources in connection with, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Transactions, or the Financing, and no Debt Financing Source shall have any liability to the Company, any Company Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates for any obligations or liabilities of the Parties or for any claim (regardless of the legal theory under which such claim may be asserted, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory), based on, in respect of, or by reason of, this Agreement, the Transactions, or the Financing or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.10 shall in any way limit or qualify (x) the rights and obligations of the Debt Financing Sources to each other thereunder or in connection therewith or (y) the rights of the Company to make a claim against Parent under the Confidentiality Agreement for any breach thereof by any Debt Financing Source.

9.11 Enforcement; Remedies.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable injury, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, will occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the Merger or the other Transactions) is not performed, or is threatened to be not performed, in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it at law or in equity, including monetary damages, each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or remedy any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party, a decree or order of specific performance specifically enforcing the terms and provisions of this Agreement and any further equitable relief, in each case in accordance with Section 9.7, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled under the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that unless this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance to cause Parent and Merger Sub to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Closing if, and only if, (i) Parent is required to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2, and Parent fails to consummate the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.2, (ii) the Debt Financing has been funded or will be funded in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Debt Financing at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (iii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing to Parent that if the Equity Financing and Debt Financing (including any alternative financing that has been obtained in accordance with Section 6.14) are funded, then the Company will take such actions that are required of it to cause the Closing to occur in accordance with Section 2.2 (and the Company has not revoked, withdrawn, modified or conditioned such confirmation) and Parent has failed to consummate the closing within three Business Days after receipt of such irrevocable conditions. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) in no event shall the Company be entitled to specifically enforce (or to bring any action or proceeding in equity seeking to specifically enforce) Parent’s rights under the Commitment Letters to cause the Debt Financing and/or Equity Financing to be funded or to effect the Closing other than as expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to the Equity Financing, and (ii) in no event shall the Company be entitled to seek to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement or to obtain an injunction or injunctions, or to bring any other action or proceeding in equity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, against Parent other than under the circumstances expressly set forth in this Section 9.11. The Parties further agree that no Party shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.11(b), and each Party waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

(c) The Parties’ rights in this Section 9.11 are an integral part of the Transactions and each Party hereby waives any objections to any remedy referred to in this Section 9.11 (including any objection on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of such remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity). For the avoidance of doubt, each Party agrees that there is not an adequate remedy at Law for a breach of this Agreement by any Party.

9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Electronic transmission of any signed original document or retransmission of any such signed transmission will be deemed the same as delivery of an original.
