ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate existence of Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall succeed to and assume all the properties, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises, debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of Sub and the Company in accordance with Section 259 of the DGCL.

Section 1.02 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place on a date to be designated by Parent which shall be the third Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than conditions that by their nature are only satisfied as of the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions), or such other Business Day agreed to in writing by the parties. The Closing will take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, 755 Page ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or at another place agreed to in writing by the parties.

Section 1.03 Effective Time. Concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall file a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with, the applicable provisions of the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective on the date and time at which the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such other later date and time as is agreed between the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger (such date and time, the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.04 Organizational Documents, Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) Organizational Documents. At the Effective Time (i) the Company Charter shall be amended to conform to the certificate of incorporation of Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that references to the name of Sub shall be replaced by references to the name of the Surviving Corporation and except for the incorporator of Sub), until amended in accordance with applicable Laws, and (ii) the Company By-laws shall be amended and restated in their entirety to read as the bylaws of Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and as so amended and restated, shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation (except that references to the name of Sub shall be replaced by references to the name of the Surviving Corporation), in each case until, subject to Section 5.08, thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the applicable provisions of the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Directors. Subject to applicable Law, the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation effective as of, and immediately following, the Effective Time shall consist of the members of the board of directors of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Officers. From and after the Effective Time, the officers of Sub at the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK

Section 2.01 Conversion of Securities.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Sub, the Company or the holders of any capital stock of the Company or Sub:

(i) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) and other than Dissenting Shares, shall automatically be converted into the right to receive $4.00 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), and all of such Shares shall cease to be outstanding, shall cease to exist, and each certificate representing a Share (a “Certificate”) or non-certificated Share represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) that formerly represented any of the Shares (other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall thereafter be cancelled and cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration without interest thereon, subject to Section 2.05.

(ii) Cancellation of Company-Owned Shares and Parent-Owned Shares. All Shares that are held in the treasury of the Company or owned of record by the Company or any wholly-owned Company Subsidiary and all Shares owned of record by Parent or any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries (such Shares, the “Cancelled Shares”) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, with no payment being made with respect thereto.

(iii) Capital Stock of Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Sub shall be automatically converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Merger Consideration Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the number of outstanding Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or other similar transaction, or by reason of a stock dividend or stock distribution, the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 2.02 Exchange of Certificates; Payment for Shares.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a U.S.-based nationally recognized financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the holders of Shares to receive the funds to which such holders shall become entitled pursuant to this Agreement. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent, in immediately available funds, subject to the terms of the Investment Agreement, the aggregate amount of cash necessary to consummate the Merger (the “Exchange Fund”). For purposes of determining the aggregate amount to be so deposited, Parent shall assume that no stockholder of the Company shall perfect any right to appraisal of such stockholder or its Shares. In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments contemplated by this Section 2.02, Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional funds with the Paying Agent in an amount sufficient to make such payments. Funds made available to the Paying Agent may be invested by the Paying Agent, as directed by Parent, but only in short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the United States of America with maturities of no more than 30 days or in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, pending payment thereof by the Paying Agent to the holders of Shares pursuant to this Section 2.02; provided, that no investment of such deposited funds shall relieve Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent from promptly making the payments required by this Section 2.02, and following any losses from any such investment, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares, in the amount of such losses, which additional funds will be held and disbursed in the same manner as funds initially deposited with the Paying Agent to make the payments contemplated by this Section 2.02. Any interest or income produced by such investments will be payable to Sub or Parent, as Parent directs. Parent shall direct the Paying Agent to hold the Exchange Fund for the benefit of the former holders of Shares and to make payments from the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Section 2.02. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments pursuant to this Section 2.02, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(b) Procedures for Surrender. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than the second Business Day following the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement: (i) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e) to the Paying Agent) and shall otherwise be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify after consultation with the Company and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificate in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to each Share evidenced thereby. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e)) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, and upon delivery of a letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Certificate, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate were converted pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i) (less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.05), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and the person requesting such payment shall pay to the Paying Agent 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 Certificate so surrendered or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered and shall be made promptly following the Effective Time without any action on the part of the person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any portion of the Merger Consideration payable upon surrender of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e)) or Book-Entry Share.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. As of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares on the records of the Company. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon surrender of any Shares shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Shares. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. At any time following the date 180 days after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) not disbursed to holders of Shares, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) with respect to the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Shares and compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.02(b), without interest. If any Certificate has not been surrendered by the earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the Effective Time or (ii) the date immediately prior to the date on which the consideration that such Certificate represents the right to receive would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, then such consideration shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of any claim or interest of any person previously entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Share for Merger Consideration properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Paying Agent) of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the amount of cash into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate were converted pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i); provided, however, that the Paying Agent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such cash, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to provide a bond in a customary amount.

Section 2.03 Treatment of Company Options, RSUs, Equity Plans and Company Warrants.

(a) Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase Shares granted under a Company Stock Plan (the “Company Options”) shall be cancelled for no consideration. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Option shall be exercisable, and no Company Option shall entitle the holder thereof to any payment in exchange therefor. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all action that may be necessary (under the Company Stock Plans and otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.03(a) and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, holders of Company Options have no rights with respect thereto.

(b) Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with respect to Shares (each, an “RSU Award”) granted pursuant to a Company Stock Plan shall be fully vested and cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such cancelled RSU Award shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such RSU Award and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (i) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (ii) the number of restricted stock units subject to such RSU Award, without interest (such amounts payable hereunder, the “RSU Payments”) (less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.05). To the extent an RSU Award is subject to performance conditions, the number of RSUs that become vested pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be determined (A) for RSU Awards with a performance period that by its terms has ended prior to the Effective Time, based on actual performance through the end of such performance period, and (B) for RSU Awards with a performance period that by its terms has not ended prior to the Effective Time, at 100% of target levels. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all action that may be necessary (under the Company Stock Plans and otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.03(b) and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, holders of RSUs have no rights with respect thereto other than those specifically provided in this Section 2.03(b).

(c) Company Stock Purchase Plan. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary to terminate the Company Stock Purchase Plan and all outstanding rights thereunder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that from and after the date hereof, the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that no new “Offering” (as such term is defined in the Company Stock Purchase Plan) commences after the date hereof. If the Effective Time occurs during the Offering in effect as of the date of this Agreement, then such Offering shall terminate no later than the day immediately prior to the Effective Time, as determined by the Company (the “ESPP Termination Date”), and the Company shall cause the purchase date applicable to such Offering to accelerate and occur on the ESPP Termination Date with respect to any then-outstanding options.

(d) Termination of Company Stock Plans. As of the Effective Time, all Company Stock Plans and the Company Stock Purchase Plan shall terminate, and no further Company Options, RSUs or other rights with respect to Shares shall be granted thereunder.

(e) Parent Funding. At the Effective Time, to the extent necessary to enable the Surviving Corporation to pay its obligations under this Article II, Parent shall deposit with the Surviving Corporation cash in the amount necessary to make the payments required under this Section 2.03. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay through the Payroll Agent the applicable RSU Payments to the holders of Company RSUs, subject to Section 2.05.

(f) Treatment of Company Warrants. As the exercise price per Share of each Company Warrant is greater than the Merger Consideration, no provision is made in respect of Company Warrants. The Company shall take all actions as necessary prior to the Effective Time such that all Company Warrants will terminate and cease to be of any force or effect by no later than the Effective Time.

Section 2.04 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any issued and outstanding Shares held by a person (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) who is entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL and has complied with all the provisions of the DGCL concerning the right of holders of Shares to require appraisal of such Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as described in Section 2.01(a)(i), but shall become the right to receive the fair value of such Shares pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL. If such Dissenting Stockholder withdraws such Dissenting Stockholder’s demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses such Dissenting Stockholder’s right of appraisal with respect to such Shares, in any case to the extent permitted pursuant to the DGCL, such Shares shall be deemed to be converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each such Share, without interest and subject to Section 2.05. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands for appraisal of Shares received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served on the Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

Section 2.05 Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the Shares, Company Options and RSU Awards vested or cancelled in the Merger, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment, or the vesting, waiver of restrictions or other actions provided for in this Agreement, under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (a) shall be remitted by the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Sub or the Paying Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares, Company Options or RSU Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

Section 2.06 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

ARTICLE III

Except (a) as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents filed or furnished prior to the date of this Agreement, other than statements in the “Risk Factors” sections of any such filings (excluding statements of fact) and any disclosure of risks included in any “forward-looking statements” disclaimer contained in any such filings (excluding statements of fact), or (b) as disclosed in the separate disclosure letter that is being delivered by the Company to Parent on the date hereof (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (it being agreed that disclosure of any item in any section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be disclosed only with respect to (x) the corresponding section or subsection in this Agreement and (y) any other section or subsection in this Agreement to which the relevance of such item is readily apparent), the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Sub as follows:

The Company and each Company Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company has no Subsidiaries, and does not own any capital stock of, or any equity interest of any nature in, any other Entity, other than the Entities identified in Section 3.01(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 30,000,000 Shares and 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Company Preferred Stock”). As of the close of business on the date that is one Business Day before the date of this Agreement (the “Specified Date”), (i) 18,989,280 Shares were issued and outstanding, all of which were duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free of preemptive rights, (ii) no shares of Company Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, and (iii) no Shares were held in treasury.

Except for the Company Warrants, there are no outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other Indebtedness of the Company or any Company Subsidiary having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matter on which stockholders of the Company or any Company Subsidiary may vote.

(b) Parent hereby guarantees the due, prompt and faithful payment, performance and discharge by Sub of, and the compliance by Sub with, all of the covenants, agreements, obligations and undertakings of Sub under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and covenants and agrees to take all actions necessary or advisable to ensure such payment, performance and discharge by Sub hereunder.

Section 5.03 No Solicitation; Change of Company Recommendation.

(a) (i) The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, and shall direct the Company’s directors, officers, investment bankers and counsel (collectively, the “Company Representatives”) to, cease any solicitations, discussions or negotiations with any persons that may be ongoing with respect to any Competing Proposal, (ii) except as permitted by this Section 5.03, the Company shall not, shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to not, and shall direct all Company Representatives not to, initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage or facilitate the submission of any Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, and (iii) except as permitted by this Section 5.03, the Company shall not, shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to not, and shall direct all Company Representatives not to, (A) furnish any non-public information regarding the Company or any Company Subsidiary to any third party in connection with or in response to a Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, (B) participate in any discussions or negotiations with any third party with respect to any Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, (C) amend or waive any rights under any confidentiality, “standstill,” nonsolicitation or similar agreement with any third party to which the Company is a party or under which the Company has any rights, (D) approve, endorse or recommend any Competing Proposal or (E) enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any Contract contemplating or providing for any Competing Proposal. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any action taken by any Company Representative that, if taken by the Company would constitute a breach of this Section 5.03, shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 5.03 by the Company (whether or not such Company Representative is purporting to act on behalf of the Company).

(b) If the Company or any Company Representative receives a Competing Proposal or an Acquisition Inquiry at any time during the Pre-Closing Period, then the Company shall promptly (and in no event later than one Business Day or, if less, 48 hours, after receipt of such Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry) advise Parent’s chief financial officer and outside counsel in writing by email of such Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry (including the identity of the person making or submitting such Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry and the material terms thereof) and provide Parent with copies of all documents relating thereto provided to the Company by or on behalf of the Person making the Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry to the Company or any Company Representative. The Company shall promptly (and in no event later than 24 hours after any material change to such material terms) inform Parent in writing with respect to any material change to any of the material terms of such Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, and provide Parent with copies of all documents relating thereto provided to the Company by or on behalf of the Person making the Competing Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry to the Company or any Company Representative.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if (i) the Company receives a bona fide written Competing Proposal (that is not withdrawn) from a third party with respect to which the Company has provided to Parent any notifications required by Section 5.03(b), (ii) neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary or Company Representative shall have breached in any material respect any of the provisions set forth in this Section 5.03, and (iii) the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, then the Company may (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the person making such Competing Proposal and its representatives and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the person making such Competing Proposal and its representatives regarding such Competing Proposal; provided, however, that the Company (x) will not, will not permit the Company Subsidiaries to, and will not authorize the Company Representatives to, disclose any non-public information regarding the Company to such person without first entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such person, and (y) will as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 24 hours thereafter) provide to Parent any material information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries provided or made available to such other person (or its representatives) that was not previously provided or made available to Parent.

(d) Except as set forth in Section 5.03(e) or Section 5.03(f), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) adopt, authorize, approve or recommend any Competing Proposal, (ii) withhold, modify or amend, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation or fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement (any action set forth in the foregoing clause (i) or clause (ii), a “Change of Company Recommendation”) or (iii) allow the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement relating to any Competing Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) or requiring the Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Transactions.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof may make a Change of Company Recommendation in connection with a Competing Proposal if:

(i) a Competing Proposal is made to the Company by a third party and such Competing Proposal is not withdrawn;

(ii) neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary or Company Representative shall have breached in any material respect any of the provisions set forth in this Section 5.03;

(iii) the Company shall have received from the third party making such Competing Proposal a form of definitive agreement providing for the consummation of the transaction contemplated by such Competing Proposal that such third party has indicated in writing it is prepared to immediately enter into with the Company (the “Proposed Definitive Agreement”);

(iv) the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel and after consultation with its financial advisor(s), (x) that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (y) that in light of such Competing Proposal, the failure to withdraw or modify the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or Sub would, if this Agreement were not amended or an alternative transaction with Parent were not entered into, be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law;

(v) the Company provides Parent prior written notice of the Company’s intention to make a Change of Company Recommendation (a “Notice of Change of Recommendation”), which notice shall identify the person making such Superior Proposal and include the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (it being agreed that neither the delivery of the Notice of Change of Recommendation by the Company nor the public announcement that the Company Board is considering making a Change of Company Recommendation under applicable Law shall constitute a Change of Company Recommendation), including as an attachment the Proposed Definitive Agreement relating to such Superior Proposal, and stating that the Company intends to enter into the Proposed Definitive Agreement relating to such Superior Proposal;

(vi) during the four-day period commencing on the date of Parent’s receipt of such Notice of Change of Recommendation (as such period may be extended as provided below), the Company shall have made the Company Representatives reasonably available for the purpose of engaging in negotiations with Parent (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) regarding a possible amendment of this Agreement or a possible alternative transaction so that the Competing Proposal that is the subject of the Notice of Change of Recommendation ceases to be a Superior Proposal; and

(vii) any written proposal made by Parent or Sub to amend this Agreement or enter into an alternative transaction during the negotiations described in clause (vi) above shall have been considered by the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof in good faith, and, after the expiration of the negotiation period described in clause (vi) above, the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel and after consultation with its financial advisor(s), (x) that such Competing Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal and (y) that in light of such Competing Proposal, the failure to withdraw or modify the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or Sub would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law; provided, however, that, in the event of any amendment to the financial or other material terms of such Competing Proposal, the Company shall be required to deliver to Parent a new Notice of Change of Recommendation (including as attachments thereto a copy of the new Proposed Definitive Agreement relating to such amended Competing Proposal and copies of any related documents), and the negotiation period described in clause (vi) above shall be extended by an additional three days from the date of Parent’s receipt of such new Notice of Change of Recommendation.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof may make a Change of Company Recommendation other than in connection with a Superior Proposal if:

(i) there shall occur or arise after the date of this Agreement a material and fundamental development or material and fundamental change in circumstances (or if such material or fundamental development or material and fundamental change in circumstances occurred or arose on or prior to the date of this Agreement, the material consequences of which were not known to the Company Board as of the date of this Agreement and only become known to the Company Board prior to the Effective Time) that relates to the Company but does not relate to any Competing Proposal (as to which Section 5.03(e) shall apply) (any such material development or material change in circumstances unrelated to an Competing Proposal being referred to as an “Intervening Event”);

(ii) the Company did not expect and could not have reasonably expected that such Intervening Event could occur or arise after the date of this Agreement;

(iii) the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel and after consultation with its financial advisor(s), that, in light of such Intervening Event, the failure to withdraw or modify the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or Sub would, if this Agreement were not amended or an alternative transaction with Parent were not entered into, be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law;

(iv) the Company provides Parent a Notice of Change of Recommendation, which notice shall describe the Intervening Event (it being agreed that neither the delivery of the Notice of Change of Recommendation by the Company nor the public announcement that the Company Board is considering making a Change of Company Recommendation under applicable Law shall constitute a Change of Company Recommendation);

(v) during the four-day period commencing on the date of Parent’s receipt of such Notice of Change of Recommendation, the Company shall have made the Company Representatives reasonably available for the purpose of engaging in negotiations with Parent (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) regarding a possible amendment of this Agreement or an alternative transaction in such a manner that obviates the need for withdrawing the Company Recommendation or otherwise effecting a Change of Company Recommendation; and

(vi) any written proposal made by Parent or Sub to amend this Agreement or enter into an alternative transaction during the negotiations described in clause (v) above shall have been considered by the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof in good faith, and, at the end of such four day period, the Company Board or a duly authorized committee thereof reasonably determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel and after consultation with its financial advisor(s), that the failure to withdraw or modify the Company Recommendation would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law in light of such Intervening Event (taking into account any written proposal submitted to the Company by Parent or Sub to amend this Agreement or enter into an alternative transaction as a result of the negotiations contemplated by clause (v) above).

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit the Company Board from (i) disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, it being agreed that the issuance by the Company or the Company Board of a “stop, look and listen” communication pending disclosure of its position, as contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, shall not constitute a Change of Company Recommendation); provided, however, that (x) unless such disclosure consists solely of a “stop, look and listen” communication containing only statements contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, the Company shall first comply with Section 5.03 to the extent applicable to such disclosure, and (y) the Company acknowledges that any such disclosure (other than a “stop, look and listen” communication containing only statements contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) may constitute a Triggering Event, and that any such disclosure shall be subject to the other terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 5.04 Proxy Statement; Stockholder Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file a preliminary Proxy Statement with the SEC. Subject to Section 5.03, the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Recommendation. Parent shall cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement, and shall furnish all information concerning it and Sub that is necessary or appropriate in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement. The parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to have the Proxy Statement cleared by the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing. Prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement or any related documents (or in each case, any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, to the extent reasonably practicable, the Company shall provide Parent with an opportunity to review and comment on such document or response and shall consider in good faith any comments on such document or response reasonably proposed by Parent. The Company shall notify Parent promptly of the receipt of any comments to the Proxy Statement from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and will supply Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) If, at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting, any information relating to the Company or Parent, Sub or any of their respective affiliates, is discovered by the Company or Parent that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall as promptly as practicable notify the other party. Following such notification, the Company shall file with the SEC an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information as promptly as practicable after Parent has had a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and, to the extent required by applicable Law, the Company shall disseminate such amendment or supplement to the stockholders of the Company.

(c) The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Proxy Statement is cleared by the SEC for mailing to the Company’s stockholders in accordance with Section 5.04(a), duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, in its reasonable discretion, adjourn, recess or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting (i) after consultation with Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to the stockholders of the Company within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholder Meeting, (ii) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholder Meeting or to the extent that at such time the Company has not received proxies sufficient to allow the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholder Meeting or (iii) to the extent required by applicable Law. Subject to Section 5.03, the Company Board shall recommend that the Company’s stockholders approve this Agreement, and the Company shall, unless there has been a Change of Company Recommendation or this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement.

Section 5.05 Access to Information1.1 . From the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, the Company shall, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary to: (a) provide to Parent and Sub and their respective representatives reasonable access during normal business hours in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the operation of any business conducted by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, upon prior written notice to the Company, to the officers, employees, properties, offices and other facilities of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and to the books, records, Tax Returns, work papers and other documents and information thereof; and (b) furnish promptly such information concerning the business, properties, Contracts, assets and liabilities of the Company and Company Subsidiaries as Parent or its representatives may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (or to cause any Company Subsidiary to) afford such access or furnish such information to the extent that doing so would: (i) result in the loss of attorney-client privilege (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege); or (ii) breach, contravene or violate any applicable Law (including the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law). Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective representatives, to hold all information provided or furnished pursuant to this Section 5.05 confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. During any visit to the business or property sites of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, each of Parent and Sub shall, and shall cause their respective representatives accessing such properties to, comply with all applicable Laws and all of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ safety and security procedures.

Section 5.06 Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.

(a) Subject to Section 5.03, each of Parent and the Company shall (and Parent shall cause each of its affiliates to) use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Transactions and to cause the conditions set forth in Article VI to be satisfied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall (and shall cause Sub and each of Parent’s or Sub’s affiliates to) and the Company shall (and shall cause each of the Company Subsidiaries to) use its reasonable best efforts to (i) promptly seek to obtain all actions or nonactions, consents, Permits (including Environmental Permits), waivers, approvals, authorizations and orders from Governmental Entities or other persons necessary or advisable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) as promptly as practicable, and in any event with respect to the filings required under the HSR Act within five Business Days after the date on which Parent notifies the Company in writing that such filings are required, which notification must be made (if at all) not later than June 30, 2016, make and not withdraw (without the consent of both Parent and the Company) all registrations and filings with any Governmental Entity or other persons necessary or advisable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, including the filings required of the parties or their “ultimate parent entities” under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, and promptly make any further filings pursuant thereto that may be necessary or advisable, (iii) seek to resolve any objection or assertion by any Governmental Entity challenging this Agreement or the Transactions and (iv) execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary or advisable to consummate the Transactions.

(b) At the request of Parent, the Company shall agree to divest, sell, dispose of, hold separate or otherwise take or commit to take any other action with respect to any of the businesses, product lines or assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, provided that any such action is conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger.

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.06, each party hereto shall: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation or legal Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions; (ii) keep the other parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation or legal Proceeding; (iii) respond as promptly as practicable to (x) any inquiries or requests received from the FTC or the Antitrust Division for additional information or documentation and (y) any inquiries or requests received from any state attorney general, foreign antitrust or competition authority or other Governmental Entity in connection with antitrust or related matters, and (iv) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from the FTC, the Antitrust Division or any other Governmental Entity regarding the Transactions. Each party hereto will consult and cooperate with the other parties and will consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any filing, analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation or legal Proceeding, each party hereto will permit authorized representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation or legal Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation or legal Proceeding.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.06 or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Parent nor Sub shall have any obligation under this Agreement to take any of the following actions, if Parent determines in good faith that taking such actions could reasonably be expected to materially affect the business or interests of Parent, any of Parent’s Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation in any adverse way: (i) to dispose of or transfer or cause any of its Subsidiaries to dispose of or transfer any assets, or to commit to cause the Company to dispose of or transfer any assets; (ii) to discontinue or cause any of its Subsidiaries to discontinue offering any product or service, or to commit to cause the Company to discontinue offering any product or service; (iii) to license or otherwise make available, or cause any of its Subsidiaries to license or otherwise make available to any person any technology, software or other Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Right, or to commit to cause the Company to license or otherwise make available to any person any technology, software or other Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Right; (iv) to hold separate or cause any of its Subsidiaries to hold separate any assets or operations (either before or after the Effective Time), or to commit to cause the Company to hold separate any assets or operations; (v) to make or cause any of its Subsidiaries to make any commitment, or to commit to cause the Company to make any commitment (to any Governmental Entity or otherwise) regarding its future operations or the future operations of the Company; or (vi) to contest any Proceeding or any order, writ, injunction or decree relating to the Merger or any of the other Transactions.

Section 5.07 Public Announcements. The initial press release issued by Parent and the Company concerning this Agreement and the Transactions shall be a joint press release, and thereafter, except with respect to any Change of Company Recommendation, Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the Transactions and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by applicable Law, fiduciary duties or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange.

Section 5.08 Directors & Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnification. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each current or former director, officer or employee of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against (i) all losses, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines, claims, damages or liabilities or, subject to the proviso of the next succeeding sentence, amounts paid in settlement, arising out of actions or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time) to the extent that they are based on or arise out of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), and (ii) all Indemnified Liabilities to the extent they are based on or arise out of or pertain to the Transactions, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, and including any expenses incurred in enforcing such person’s rights under this Section 5.08.

(b) Insurance. The Company shall be permitted to, prior to the Effective Time, and if the Company fails to do so, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, obtain and fully pay the premium for an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for a period of six years from and after the Effective Time for events occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate to the intended beneficiaries thereof than the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. If the Company and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policy as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six years from and after the Effective Time the D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six-year period with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that if such D&O Insurance is not available at a cost of less than 250% of the annual premium paid by the Company in 2015 for the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall only be required to purchase as much coverage as is available for such amount.

(c) Continuation. The contractual indemnification rights, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any of the directors, officers or employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation, without any further action, and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms following the Effective Time.

(d) Benefit. The provisions of this Section 5.08 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, each Indemnified Party’s heirs, executors or administrators, shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation and shall not be amended in a manner that is adverse to any Indemnified Parties (including their heirs, executors or administrators) without the consent of the Indemnified Party (including the heirs, executors or administrators) affected thereby.

(e) Non-Exclusivity. The provisions of this Section 5.08 are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 5.08, is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or the Indemnified Parties, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.08 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

Section 5.09 Takeover Statutes. The parties shall use all reasonable efforts (a) to take all action necessary so that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to restrict or prohibit the Transactions and (b) if any Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to restrict or prohibit any of the Transactions, to take all action necessary so that such Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize (to the greatest extent practicable) the effects of such Takeover Statute on such Transactions.

Section 5.10 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to, assume, honor and continue all of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ employment, severance, retention and termination plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements (including any change in control or severance agreement between the Company or any Company Subsidiary and any individual who is an employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time (each a “Company Employee”)), in each case, in accordance with their terms as in effect as of the date hereof, and as may have been amended in accordance with Section 5.01(j), including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the Transactions (either alone or in combination with any other event), subject to the right of Parent and the Surviving Corporation to amend such plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements in accordance with the terms thereof or as otherwise permitted by Law.

(b) For purposes of determining eligibility to participate, level of benefits and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accruals) under any “employee benefit plan” (as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, but without regard to whether the applicable plan is subject to ERISA) and any other employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, including any vacation, paid time off and severance plans, each Company Employee’s service with or otherwise credited by the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be treated as service with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits.

(c) Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively at work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, in which Company Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Company Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which such Company Employee (and dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) be treated as an amendment of any Company Benefit Plan, (ii) give any employee or former employee or any other individual associated therewith or any employee benefit plan or trustee thereof or any other third person any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 5.10, (iii) obligate Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their affiliates to (A) maintain any particular benefit plan, except in accordance with the terms of such plan or (B) retain the employment of any particular employee or (iv) be construed to create a right in any Company Associate to employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Subsidiary of Parent.

(e) Unless otherwise requested by Parent in writing at least 10 days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective, any Company Employee Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”). If the Company is required to terminate any Company 401(k) Plan, then the Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Effective Time written evidence of the adoption by the Company Board of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which shall be subject to the prior review and approval of Parent). The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company 401(k) Plan as Parent may reasonably request. Parent shall cause any plan maintained by Parent or one of its affiliates that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code to accept rollovers of distributions from the Company 401(k) Plan, including rollovers of outstanding participant loans.

Section 5.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such expense. Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay all charges and expenses of the Paying Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated in Article II.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 8.03 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 8.04 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Annexes, Exhibits, the Company Disclosure Letter and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 8.05 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties, provided that Parent may transfer or assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, to any of its Subsidiaries at any time and, after the Effective Time, to any person. No transfer or assignment by any party shall relieve such party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any assignment or transfer in violation of the preceding sentence shall be void.

Section 8.06 Parties in Interest. Except for (a) Article II, which shall be for the benefit of any person entitled to payment thereunder, and (b) Section 5.08, which shall be for the benefit of each Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party’s heirs, executors or administrators and each Indemnified Party’s representatives, Parent, Sub and the Company hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the other parties, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the parties any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement. The parties further agree that the rights of third-party beneficiaries under clauses (a) and (b) of the preceding sentence shall not arise unless and until the Effective Time occurs. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties and are for the sole benefit of the parties. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties may be subject to waiver by the parties in accordance with Section 7.04 without notice or liability to any other person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties. Consequently, persons other than the parties may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

Section 8.07 Mutual Drafting; Interpretation; Headings. Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: (a) the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; (b) the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; (c) the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and (d) the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and words of similar meaning, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Annexes” and “Exhibits” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and the Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to U.S. dollars. The term “or” shall not be deemed to be exclusive. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. In this Agreement, references to “as of the date of this Agreement” or words of similar import shall be deemed to mean “as of immediately prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.” The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 8.08 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of Law thereof.

(b) Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any other party or its successors or assigns shall be brought and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware), and each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions. Each of the parties agrees not to commence any Proceeding relating thereto except in the courts described above in Delaware, other than actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in Delaware as described in this Agreement. Each of the parties further agrees that service of process upon such party in any such Proceeding shall be effective if given in accordance with Section 8.02 or such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law, and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described in this Agreement for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) that (A) the Proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter of this Agreement, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (III) IT MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.08(c).

Section 8.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by electronic delivery in .pdf format shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed, or were threatened to be not performed, in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(b) Each of the parties agrees that, (i) the seeking of remedies pursuant to this Section 8.10 shall not in any way constitute a waiver by any party seeking such remedies of its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to it under this Agreement, including under Section 7.02, in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 8.10 are not available or otherwise are not granted, (ii) nothing set forth in this Agreement shall require a party to institute any Proceeding for (or limit a party’s right to institute any Proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 8.10 prior, or as a condition, to exercising any termination right under Article VII (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Proceeding seeking remedies pursuant to this Section 8.10 or anything set forth in this Section 8.10 restrict or limit a party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VII or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter and (iii) no party shall require the other to post any bond or other security as a condition to institute any Proceeding for specific performance under this Section 8.10.
