(a) Merger Consideration. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (each, a “Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any Restricted Shares that fully vest pursuant to Section 2.02(a)), other than (i) the Cancelled Shares, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.01(b), and (ii) the Dissenting Shares, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.05, shall be converted into the right to receive $23.50 per Share in cash (minus the Final Adjustment Amount, if any), without interest thereon (the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all such Shares shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each such Share, whether represented by a certificate (“Certificate”) or in non-certificated form and represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”), shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article II.

(b) Cancellation of Cancelled Shares. Each Share owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent and each Share owned by the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Cancelled Shares”) shall cease to be outstanding, be cancelled without payment of any consideration therefor and cease to exist.

(c) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and all such shares together shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 2.02. Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(a) Treatment of Restricted Shares. With respect to each Share that is subject to any vesting, forfeiture, repurchase or other lapse restriction under any Company Equity Award Plan (each a “Restricted Share”) and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, such vesting, forfeiture, repurchase or other lapse restriction shall lapse as of the Effective Time and such Restricted Share shall be fully vested and shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01(a).

(b) Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award in respect of Shares granted under a Company Equity Award Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company RSU”) shall fully vest and shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive, as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than the next regularly scheduled payroll date) after the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Merger Consideration in respect of each Share underlying such Company RSU.

(c) Treatment of Performance Stock Units. At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award in respect of Shares granted under a Company Equity Award Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that vests, in whole or in part, based on the achievement of a specified level of performance (a “Company PSU”) (i) shall, if it was awarded during December 2020, vest and be deemed satisfied based on actual performance determined as of the Effective Time in accordance with the terms of the Company PSU, and (ii) shall, if it was awarded other than during December 2020, fully vest and be deemed satisfied at the target level of one hundred percent (100%). Each Company PSU shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive, as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than the next regularly scheduled payroll date) after the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Merger Consideration in respect of each Share underlying such Company PSU, as determined pursuant to this Section 2.02(c).

(d) Treatment of Company Options. At the Effective Time, each option award in respect of Shares granted under a Company Equity Award Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company Option”), whether vested or unvested, and has an exercise price per Share that is less than the Merger Consideration shall fully vest and shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive, as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than three (3) Business Days) after the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the amount by which the Merger Consideration exceeds the exercise price per Share of such Company Option and (ii) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Option. At the Effective Time, each Company Option that has an exercise price per Share that is greater than or equal to the Merger Consideration shall cease to be outstanding, be cancelled and cease to exist and the holder of any such Company Option shall not be entitled to payment of any consideration therefor. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no outstanding Company Options.

(e) Corporate Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board and the compensation committee of the Company Board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.02(a) through Section 2.02(d). The Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver Shares or other capital stock of the Company to any Person pursuant to or in settlement of Restricted Shares, Company RSUs, Company PSUs, Company Options or any other awards under any Company Equity Award Plan.

(f) Funding. At the Effective Time, Parent shall make, or cause to be made, a cash contribution to the Surviving Corporation in immediately available funds to permit the Surviving Corporation to make the payments required under Section 2.02(a) through Section 2.02(d) to the extent, if any, the Surviving Corporation does not otherwise have sufficient funds to make such payments.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Restricted Shares, Company RSUs, Company PSUs or Company Options or any other awards under any Company Equity Award Plan that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, all payments with respect to such award shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and nothing herein is intended or shall be construed to change the payment timing with respect to any such award in violation of Section 409A of the Code.

SECTION 2.03. Surrender of Shares.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall select a paying agent (the “Paying Agent”), with the Company’s prior approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and enter into an agreement with such Paying Agent in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company wherein the Paying Agent will act as agent for the shareholders of the Company in connection with the Merger and receive payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration to which the shareholders of the Company shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a). At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent, in trust for the benefit of the holders of Shares, a cash amount in immediately available funds sufficient in the aggregate to provide all funds necessary for the Paying Agent to make payments required pursuant to Section 2.01(a) upon due surrender of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.03(b) (such cash amount being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). The Paying Agent shall invest the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, or in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of acquisition or a combination of the foregoing and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months. Subject to Section 2.03(c), to the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to make prompt cash payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.01(a), Parent shall promptly replace or restore the cash in the Exchange Fund lost through such investments or other events so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all applicable times maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment

5

shall become a part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable under Section 2.01(a) shall be promptly returned to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as requested by Parent. The funds deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) shall not be used for any purpose other than as contemplated by this Section 2.03(a); provided, further, that Parent may also direct that the Exchange Fund be invested in a non-interest bearing account.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) Transmittal Materials. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within two (2) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail or otherwise provide to each holder of record of Shares (other than holders of Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) (A) transmittal materials, including a letter of transmittal, specifying that delivery of Shares shall be effected, and risk of loss and title with respect to Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent, such transmittal materials to be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent.

(ii) Payment of Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent together with the transmittal materials, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions or by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver promptly after the Effective Time, a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the product of (A) the number of Shares represented by such holder’s properly surrendered Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares and (B) the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon. No interest shall be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares.

(iii) Unrecorded Transfers; Other Payments. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company or if payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, a check for any cash to be exchanged upon due surrender of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share may be issued to such transferee or other Person if the Certificate or Book-Entry Share formerly representing such Shares is presented to the Paying Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable transfer or other similar Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(iv) Rights of Holders of Shares; Expenses. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.03(b), each Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender (together with the transmittal materials, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions or by the Paying Agent) the Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.01(a).

6

(c) Termination of the Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investment thereof) that remains undistributed six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, upon demand by Parent. Any former holders of Shares (other than Cancelled Shares or Dissenting Shares) who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter be entitled to look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration upon surrender of their Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.03(b), and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall remain liable for (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Law) payment of their claims for the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Company, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Law.

(d) Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, acceptable evidence of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for transfer, the holder of such Shares shall be given a copy of the transmittal materials referred to in Section 2.03(b)(i) and instructed to comply with the instructions thereto in order to receive the cash amount to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

(e) Lost Certificates. In the case of any Certificate that has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Paying Agent or Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in a reasonable amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall pay and deliver in exchange for such Certificate a cash amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Shares represented by such Certificate and (ii) the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon.

SECTION 2.04. Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Paying Agent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, Restricted Shares, Company RSUs, Company PSUs or Company Options such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law, taking into account any applicable exemption under such Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be promptly remitted by Parent, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to obtain exemption from or to otherwise reduce or eliminate any such Tax to the extent legally permissible.

7

SECTION 2.05. Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares that are held by any record holder who has not voted in favor of the adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised dissenters’ rights with respect to such Shares in accordance with Subchapter 15D of the PBCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.01(a), but instead at the Effective Time shall become entitled to only such rights as are granted by Subchapter 15D of the PBCL and, at the Effective Time, all such Dissenting Shares shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist, and the holder of such Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as set forth in this Section 2.05 and the PBCL. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if any such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses the rights granted under Subchapter 15D of the PBCL or a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Subchapter 15D of the PBCL, then the such holder’s rights under Subchapter 15D of the PBCL shall be forfeited and cease, and each of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted at the Effective Time into, and shall have become, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon. The Company shall deliver prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any Shares, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments delivered to the Company pursuant to the PBCL with respect to such a demand, and shall provide Parent with the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, 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, or agree to take any such action.

SECTION 2.06. Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares issued and outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time shall have been changed into a different number of Shares or securities or a different class as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to provide the holders thereof the same economic effect contemplated by this Agreement prior to such change; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.06 shall be construed to permit the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Person to take any action that is otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(a) Parent has delivered to the Company true and complete copies of (i) the letter agreement, dated as of April 18, 2021, among HPS Investment Partners, LLC and Bank of America, N.A. and BNP Paribas (the “Lenders”) (together with all exhibits, annexes, schedules, term sheets and agreements and the fee letter (which may be redacted to omit fee amounts attached thereto or contemplated thereby), the “Debt Financing Commitment”), pursuant to which the Lenders have committed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to lend the amounts set forth therein (the “Debt Financing”) and (ii) the letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among Parent, Merger Sub, European Asset Value Offshore Fund II, L.P., European Asset Value Offshore Fund (USD) II, L.P., European Asset Value Fund (USD) II, L.P. and European Asset Value Irish Fund II (together with all exhibits, annexes, schedules, term sheets and agreements attached thereto or contemplated thereby, the “Equity Financing Commitment” and, together with the Debt Financing Commitment, the “Financing Commitments”), pursuant to which Guarantor has committed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to the equity financing contemplated thereby (the “Equity Financing” and, together with the Debt Financing, the “Financing”), in each case for the purposes of funding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and related fees and expenses. Parent has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy of the Limited Guarantee. Each of the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantee have been duly executed and validly delivered by the parties thereto. The Equity Financing Commitment provides, and will continue to provide, that the Company is a third party beneficiary thereof.

(b) None of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee have been amended, modified or supplemented in any way prior to the date of this Agreement. As of the date of this Agreement, no such amendment, modification or supplement is contemplated and none of the obligations and commitments contained in the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantee have been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded in any respect. Except for the Financing Commitments, as of the date of this Agreement, there are no Contracts or other agreements, arrangements or understandings (whether oral or written) or commitments to enter into agreements, arrangements or understandings (whether oral or written) to which Parent or any of its Affiliates is a party related to the Financing other than as expressly contained in the Financing Commitments.

As of the date of this Agreement, to the knowledge of Parent and Merger Sub, (A) no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time, or both, would or would reasonably be expected to (1) constitute a default or breach under any of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person, (2) result in the failure of any condition precedent under any of the Financing Commitments to be satisfied or (3) make any of the representations, warranties or statements set forth in any of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee inaccurate in any material respect, (B) none of the Financing Commitments have been withdrawn, terminated, repudiated, rescinded, amended, supplemented or modified, in any respect, and no such withdrawal, termination, repudiation, rescission, amendment, supplement or modification is contemplated and (C) neither Parent nor Merger Sub has any reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing will not be satisfied or that the Financing will not be made available to Parent or Merger Sub on the Closing Date; provided, however, the knowledge qualifiers set forth in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall only apply to the Debt Financing Commitment and the Limited Guarantee (other than with respect to Parent, Merger Sub and Guarantor).

(d) As of the date of this Agreement, none of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates has received any notice or other communication from the Lenders or Guarantor with respect to (i) any actual or potential breach or default by Parent, the Lenders or Guarantor under any of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee, (ii) any actual or potential failure by Parent, Merger Sub or any such Affiliate to satisfy any condition precedent or other contingency to be satisfied by Parent, Merger Sub or any such Affiliate set forth in any of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee or (iii) any intention of the Lenders or Guarantor to terminate any of the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee, as applicable, or to not provide all or any portion of the Financing. As of the date hereof, Parent and Merger Sub are not aware of any fact, circumstance or event that would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or otherwise pose a potential impediment to the funding of any of the payment obligations of Parent under this Agreement.

(e) There are no, and there will not be any, conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the obligation of any party under the Financing Commitments or the Limited Guarantee other than as expressly set forth in the Financing Commitments and the Limited Guarantee, each as in effect on the date hereof (the “Disclosed Conditions”). Other than the Disclosed Conditions, none of the Lenders, Guarantor or any other Person has any right to impose, and none of the Lenders, Guarantor, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Subsidiary obligor have any obligation to accept, any condition precedent to (i) in the case of the Financing Commitments, any funding of all or any portion of the Financing or any reduction to the aggregate amount available under the Financing Commitments (or any term or condition which would have the effect of reducing the aggregate amount available under the Financing

25

Commitments) or (ii) in the case of the Limited Guarantee, guaranteeing any of the guaranteed obligations under the Limited Guarantee. Other than the Financing Commitments, there are no agreements, side letters or any other arrangements or understandings (in each case, whether written or oral) with the Lenders, Guarantor or any other Person relating to the Financing or any other financing or funding Parent’s payment obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 4.08. Access to Information. Each of Parent and Merger Sub has conducted its own independent investigation and analysis of the business, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, condition and prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries and it and its Representatives have received access to such books, records and facilities, equipment, Contracts and other assets of the Company and its subsidiaries that it and its Representatives have requested for such purposes and that it and its Representatives have had the opportunity to meet with management of the Company to discuss the foregoing, and it and its Representatives have not relied on any representation, warranty, or any other statement by any Person on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article III.

SECTION 4.09. Solvency. After giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and payment of all fees and expenses of, and any other amounts payable by, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation in connection with the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and assuming that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Subsidiaries of the Surviving Corporation on a consolidated basis will be Solvent as of and immediately after the Effective Time.

SECTION 4.10. Information in the Proxy Statement. The information relating to the Parent and Merger Sub that is provided by Parent or its representatives for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, on the date it (or any amendment or supplement thereto) is first mailed to holders of Shares or at the time of the Shareholders Meeting, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. The portions of the Proxy Statement relating to Parent and Merger Sub will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.10, no representation or warranty is made by Parent or Merger Sub with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference therein based on information provided or supplied by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries for inclusion in the Proxy Statement.

32

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.02 to the contrary and other than in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Requisite Vote, if an Intervening Event occurs and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company Board may, in response to such Intervening Event, effect a Change of Recommendation; provided, however, that, prior to taking any of the actions permitted by this Section 5.02(d)(iii), (A) the Company shall provide Parent with at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of the Company Board’s intention to take such action (which notice shall specify the reasons therefor and include a reasonably detailed description of the Intervening Event) during which period Parent may propose revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) the Company Board shall have discussed and negotiated, and shall have caused its Representatives to discuss and negotiate, in good faith with Parent during such notice period to the extent Parent reasonably desires to discuss and negotiate and (C) the Company Board, at or after 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the final day of such notice period shall have considered in good faith the effect of any Offered Amendment in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, and shall have determined after such consideration and consultation that taking into consideration such Offered Amendment, that a failure to take such action would continue to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(e) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, but subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 6.02, in the event that any litigation or other administrative or judicial action or proceeding is commenced, threatened or is reasonably foreseeable challenging any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such litigation, action or proceeding seeks, or would reasonably be expected to seek, to prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of such transactions, Parent shall take or cause to be taken any and all action, including a Remedial Action, to avoid or resolve any such litigation, action or proceeding as promptly as practicable. In addition, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall cooperate with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to contest, defend and resist any such litigation, action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, delays, interferes with or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable.

36

investigation, access or disclosure pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company herein; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not require the Company to (i) permit any inspection or disclosure of any information that in the reasonable judgment of the Company would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of third parties or violate any of its confidentiality obligations to a third party, (ii) disclose any attorney-client privileged information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) take or allow any action that would unreasonably interfere with the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business or operations, (iv) provide any access or make any disclosure of any information relating to the matters contemplated by Section 5.02 (in which case, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of Section 5.02 would apply), (v) provide any access or make any disclosure of any information to the extent such access or information is reasonably pertinent to any Proceeding where the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties or (vi) in light of any Public Health Event or any Public Health Event Measures, take any action that could jeopardize the health and safety of any officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that, in the case of the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to remove any such restriction by making appropriate substitute disclosure or providing appropriate substitute access, or otherwise agreeing with Parent to an alternative arrangement to permit such access.

37

SECTION 6.06. Employee Matters.

(a) Following the Effective Time and until the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, the individuals who are employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time (the “Company Employees”) and who continue employment during such time period with (i) annual base compensation no less than the annual base compensation provided to such Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) annual target cash incentive amounts that are no less than the annual target cash incentive amounts provided to such Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided to such Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iv) other employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to such Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.06(a), from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, assume, honor and continue during the Continuation Period or, if later, until all obligations thereunder have been satisfied, all of the Company’s employment, severance, retention, termination and change in control plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as in effect at the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event), without any amendment or modification, other than any amendment or modification required to comply with applicable Law.

(c) With respect to all plans maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries in which the Company Employees are eligible to participate after the Closing Date (including any vacation, paid time-off and severance plans) for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, level of benefits and vesting, each Company Employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Subsidiary, to the extent service with the predecessor employer is recognized by the Company or such Subsidiary) shall be treated as service with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries, in each case, to the extent such service would have been recognized by the Company or its Subsidiaries under analogous Company Benefit Plans prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(d) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.06(a), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, waive any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which Company Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the

38

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 the Surviving Corporation to, recognize 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 they will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of any Company Benefit Plan containing a definition of “change in control” or “change of control”, the Closing shall be deemed to constitute a “change in control” or “change of control” (except as would result in the imposition of “additional Taxes” under Section 409A of the Code).

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.06 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no other Person (including any Company Employee or any beneficiary or dependent thereof) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.06, and no provision of this Section 6.06 shall create such rights in any such Persons. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed (i) as a guarantee of continued employment of any Company Employee, (ii) to prohibit Parent or the Surviving Corporation from having the right to terminate the employment of any Company Employee, (iii) to prevent the amendment, modification or termination of any Company Benefit Plan after the Closing (in each case in accordance with the terms of the applicable Company Benefit Plan) or (iv) as an amendment or modification of the terms of any Company Benefit Plan.

SECTION 6.07. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whether or not the Merger is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.

SECTION 6.08. Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, each present and former director and officer of the Company and its Subsidiaries (in each case, solely when acting in such capacity) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Costs”) incurred in connection with any Proceeding, claim or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time relating to the Indemnified Party’s service with, at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to advance expenses to any Indemnified Party claiming indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.08 as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party provides a written undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification.

39

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor the provisions, to the extent they are enforceable under applicable Law, regarding (i) exculpation of directors, (ii) limitation of liability of directors and officers and (iii) advancement of expenses, in each case, contained in the Company Articles of Incorporation, Company Bylaws, the comparable organizational documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any indemnification Contract between the applicable Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain for a period of at least six (6) years following the Effective Time directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with benefits, levels of coverage and terms and conditions at least as favorable as the Company’s D&O Insurance existing immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including for acts or omissions in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend for such D&O Insurance coverage an annual premium amount greater than 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for D&O Insurance as of the date hereof (such amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”). The Company represents and warrants that the annual premium paid by the Company for D&O Insurance for the fiscal year immediately prior to the Effective Time is set forth in Section 6.08(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter. If such D&O Insurance is not reasonably available or the annual premium of such D&O Insurance exceeds the Maximum Annual Premium, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain D&O Insurance with the greatest coverage available for an annual premium not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 6.08(c), the Company may, in its sole discretion but following consultation with Parent, prior to the Effective Time, purchase six (6) year pre-paid and non-cancellable “tail” insurance coverage (“Tail D&O Insurance”) at an aggregate cost no greater than the Maximum Annual Premium, providing for D&O Insurance not less favorable than that described in Section 6.08(c). Any such D&O Tail Insurance shall expressly cover Parent and the Surviving Corporation as successors in interest. If the Company has obtained such Tail D&O Insurance pursuant to this Section 6.08(d), Parent will cause the Tail D&O Insurance to be maintained in full force and effect for its full term and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation will have no further obligation to purchase, pay for or maintain insurance pursuant to Section 6.08.

(e) If the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates or merges with or into any other Person and is not 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 provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall assume and comply with all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.08.

40

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.08 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties. The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation in this Section 6.08 will not be terminated or modified in any manner which could adversely affect any Indemnified Party without the consent of such Indemnified Party. Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries and successors to honor and comply with, the covenants contained in this Section 6.08. Parent will pay all reasonable expenses that may be incurred by an Indemnified Party in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations set forth in this Section 6.08.

(g) The rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.08 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any rights such Indemnified Parties may have under the Company Articles of Incorporation, the Company Bylaws or any of the comparable organizational documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, or under any applicable Contracts or Law.

SECTION 6.09. Debt Financing.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub shall use their 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 to arrange, consummate and obtain the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Financing Commitment, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Financing Commitment, (ii) negotiate definitive agreements with respect thereto on terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment and execute and deliver to the Company a copy of any material definitive agreements promptly following such execution, (iii) promptly pay all commitment or other fees and amounts that become due and payable under or with respect to the Debt Financing Commitment as they become due and payable, (iv) satisfy on a timely basis (or obtain a waiver of) all conditions to funding applicable to Parent and Merger Sub under the Debt Financing Commitment, (v) consummate the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment at or prior to the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment and (vi) enforce their rights under the Debt Financing Commitment, including seeking specific performance of the parties thereunder. Parent and Merger Sub shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company (which may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion), consent or agree to any amendment, supplement or modification to or assignment of, or any waiver of any provision under, the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing. Parent and Merger Sub shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to refrain from taking, directly or indirectly, any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a failure of any of the conditions contained in the Debt Financing Commitment or in any definitive agreement related to the Debt Financing. Parent shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing.

41

(b) If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable or Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware of any event or circumstance that makes any portion of the Debt Financing unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitment, Parent shall promptly notify the Company (but in any event not later than twenty-four (24) hours after such occurrence) and Parent and Merger Sub shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain alternative financing (the “Alternative Financing”) in an amount, when added with Parent and Merger Sub’s existing cash on hand, sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Parent shall deliver to the Company true, correct and complete copies of all agreements entered into with any such alternative source in connection with the Alternative Financing promptly following the execution thereof; provided, however, that Parent shall be permitted to redact fee amounts from any fee letters required to be delivered pursuant to this sentence.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the obligations contained in Section 6.09(a) and Section 6.09(b), Parent shall give the Company prompt oral and written notice (but in any event not later than twenty-four (24) hours after such occurrence) if (i) to the Knowledge of Parent, there exists any actual or anticipatory breach or default by any party to the Debt Financing Commitment (or any circumstance or event that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to give rise to any such breach or default) or any condition which would reasonably be expected not to be satisfied, or any termination of the Debt Financing Commitment, (ii) Parent or Merger Sub receives any notice or other communication from any financing source under the Debt Financing Commitment with respect to any actual or anticipatory breach, or any default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Financing Commitment or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing of any provisions of the Debt Financing Commitment or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing, and (iii) at any time for any reason Parent believes in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours of the delivery by the Company to Parent of a written request therefor, Parent shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) If the Debt Financing Commitment is amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, including as a result of obtaining Alternative Financing in accordance with Section 6.09(b), or if Parent substitutes other financing for all or a portion of the Debt Financing, Parent and Merger Sub shall comply with their respective covenants in Section 6.09(a), Section 6.09(b) and Section 6.09(c) with respect to the Debt Financing Commitment as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified and with respect to such other financing to the same extent that Parent and Merger Sub would have been obligated to comply with respect to the Debt Financing.

(e) Prior to the Closing, Parent shall not (and shall not permit any of its Affiliates or Representatives to) take any action, or enter into any transaction, or any agreement to effect any transaction that could reasonably be expected to (i) delay or impair the availability of the Debt Financing at Closing or impede the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing at the Closing or (ii) otherwise adversely impact the ability of Parent (or, if applicable, the Company) to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements with respect thereto.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may incur, in its sole and absolute discretion, any amount of Covered Costs in connection with the De-Banking and its effectuation thereof, including any Covered Costs in excess of the Threshold.

(b) The Company agrees that it shall not, and that it shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, renew any Deposits that would mature between the date that is eight (8) months after the date hereof and the Effective Time.

The Company shall provide reasonable notice to Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel in advance of such transfers and shall work in good faith with Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel to cause such transfers to be on commercially reasonable terms and consistent with the Plan and the Debt Financing Commitment and to be executed in compliance with applicable Law in all material respects.

46

(d) Parent and Merger Sub agree to use reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary or advisable to effect the De-Banking as soon as reasonably practicable and to provide all cooperation reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the De-Banking. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of Parent, Merger Sub, or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, principals or limited partners shall be required to make, or become party to, any application, notice or filing with, or to agree to or accept the imposition of any burdensome condition or burdensome requirement imposed by any banking regulator or banking Law in connection with the De-Banking, the Company’s ownership, control or winding down of MBB, or the Company’s depository institution business (it being understood and agreed this sentence is not intended to apply to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries such that this sentence shall not be deemed breached on account of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries being subject to any burdensome condition or burdensome requirement imposed by any such banking regulator or any such banking Law).

(e) Each of Parent and the Company acknowledge and agree that (i) the Company will require interim debt financing in connection with the De-Banking (“Interim De-Banking Financing”), (ii) the Company may potentially obtain Interim De-Banking Financing from the Financing Sources on terms and conditions substantially similar to those set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment (the “Parent De-Banking Financing”) and (iii) subject to the terms of this Section 6.18(e), the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to arrange for, consummate and obtain Interim De-Banking Financing from a third party in lieu of any Parent De-Banking Financing. Prior to executing any commitment letter with respect to any Interim De-Banking Financing that is not Parent De-Banking Financing, the Company shall provide Parent with at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of the Company’s intention to take such action (which notice shall include a reasonably detailed description of the terms of such Interim De-Banking Financing) during which period Parent and the Financing Sources may propose revisions to the terms of the Parent De-Banking Financing. If following such ten (10) Business Day period, (A) Parent and the Financing Sources shall have irrevocably revised the terms of the Parent De-Banking Financing such that they are no less favorable or more favorable than the terms of such Interim De-Banking Financing, then the Company shall arrange for, consummate and obtain such Parent De-Banking Financing and not such Interim De-Banking financing and Parent shall cause the Financing Sources to (1) provide the Company the Parent De-Banking Financing (reflecting any revised terms proposed by Parent and the Financing Sources) as promptly as practicable thereafter and (2) execute and deliver a debt financing commitment letter with respect to such Parent De-Banking Financing no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company is required under the terms of this Agreement to first file the Plan in accordance with Section 6.18(a) or (B) the terms of such Interim De-Banking Financing remain more favorable than the terms of such Interim De-Banking Financing (taking into consideration any revised terms proposed by Parent and the Financing Sources), as reasonably determined by the Company, then the Company may arrange for, consummate and obtain such Interim De-Banking Financing in its discretion. If at any time the Company determines to arrange for, consummate and obtain the Parent De-Banking Financing in lieu of any other Interim De-Banking Financing, Parent shall cause the Financing Sources to (x) provide the Company the Parent De-Banking Financing (reflecting any revised terms proposed by Parent and the Financing Sources) as promptly as practicable thereafter and (y) execute and deliver a debt financing commitment letter with respect to such Parent De-Banking Financing no later than two

47

(2) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company is required under the terms of this Agreement to first file the Plan in accordance with Section 6.18(a). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.18(e) to the contrary, the Company shall not obtain any Interim De-Banking Financing with terms reflecting any prepayment fee or penalty in excess of $1,000,000, or which cannot be prepaid with full release of Liens at Closing, or that would otherwise interfere with the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Debt Financing Commitment, in each case without Parent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(f) As promptly as is reasonably practicable following the satisfaction of the closing condition set forth in Section 7.01(d) (and in no event later than four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), the Company shall deliver to Parent a statement setting forth the calculation of the Adjustment Amount, which (i) calculation shall be reasonably detailed and (ii) statement shall include documentary evidence supporting such calculation (including any applicable invoices) (the “Adjustment Statement”). Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall have an opportunity to provide comments to the Adjustment Statement, which the Company shall consider in good faith. For purposes of this Agreement, the calculation of the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Adjustment Statement, as revised to reflect Parent’s comments, shall be the “Final Adjustment Amount”.

SECTION 6.19. State Licenses.

(a) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide such cooperation as reasonably requested by Parent in connection with Parent obtaining the State Licenses on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries at or prior to the Closing, which cooperation shall include submitting or making, on Parent’s behalf, with the applicable Governmental Entities any filings or applications with respect to obtaining the State Licenses prepared by Parent and its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.19 shall require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives to (i) provide any cooperation to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, (ii) provide any cooperation, or take any action, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, would reasonably be expected to cause the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives to incur any actual or potential liability, (iii) provide any cooperation, or take any action, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, would result in a violation of any confidentiality arrangement or material agreement or the loss of any attorney-client or other similar privilege, or (iv) provide any cooperation, or take any action, that would cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached or any condition to the Closing set forth in this Agreement to fail to be satisfied unless Parent agrees in writing to waive any such breach of representation or warranty or to deem any such condition to the Closing satisfied in order to obtain one or more State Licenses.

(b) Parent shall pay all costs and fees associated with obtaining the State Licenses. Parent shall indemnify the Company, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives against, be liable to such Person for and hold each such Person harmless from, any and all Costs incurred or suffered by any such Person under or in

48

connection with obtaining the State Licenses or any of their cooperation or assistance with respect to obtaining the State Licenses or the provision of any information utilized in connection therewith or otherwise arising from obtaining the State Licenses, in each case only to the extent arising as of or following the date of this Agreement and not relating to actions prior to the date of this Agreement. Parent shall from time to time, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives for any and all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses (including reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel, accountants and other advisors) incurred by any of them in connection with any of their cooperation or assistance with respect to the State Licenses. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably apprised, on a monthly basis, as to the amount of any such costs or expenses that have been incurred as of such date.

(c) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.19 shall require Parent, Merger Sub, or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, principals or limited partners to (i) make, or become party to, any application, notice or filing with respect to any State License or provide any guarantee or, directly or indirectly, accept any fine or penalty in connection therewith or (ii) agree to, or accept the imposition of, any Changes arising directly as a result obtaining the State Licenses that would have, in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than MBB), taken as a whole.

SECTION 6.20. Transition Services Agreement. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, Parent shall identify one or more suitable third party lenders/servicers and negotiate in good faith and agree on a form of transition services agreement with such third party lender/servicer with respect to existing, pending and future transactions entered into or to be entered into by the Company in the Ordinary Course of Business in jurisdictions subject to State Licenses, the approvals of which are still pending on the Closing Date. Such transitions services agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Time (or such other time and date as may be mutually agreed in writing by Parent and the Company). The terms of the transition services agreement shall be customary for transactions of this type, including services and funding arrangements reasonably required by the Company following the Closing Date to be performed by a licensed or exempt entity in the jurisdictions where the Company will be subject to State Licenses, and provided at a reasonable cost plus basis and for the time period reasonably required by the Company. To the extent requested by Parent, the Company shall reasonably cooperate with Parent in furtherance of the foregoing. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company may, in its sole discretion and in connection with the De-Banking, enter into an agreement with the third party lender/servicer selected by Parent on substantially identical terms as the transition services agreement agreed to by Parent and Parent shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in furtherance of the foregoing.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if (i) Parent receives the Termination Fee from the Company pursuant to Section 8.02(b), the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of Parent and Merger Sub against the Company and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, equity holders, managers, members or Affiliates, and none of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, managers, members or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) the Company receives the Parent Termination Fee from Parent pursuant to Section 8.02(c), the Parent Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company against Parent and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, equity holders, managers, members or Affiliates, and none of Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, managers, members or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith (including the Equity Financing Commitment and the Debt Financing Commitment) or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) Parent, Merger Sub and the Company acknowledge and agree that each of the Termination Fee and the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 8.02, shall not constitute a penalty but will be 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 Merger, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company acknowledge and agree that that the agreements contained in this Section 8.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. If the Company fails to timely pay the Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 8.02(b), or Parent fails to timely pay the Parent Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 8.02(c), and, in order to obtain such payment, the party entitled to receive such payment commences a suit that results in a judgment against the party required to make such payment for the amount of such payment or any portion thereof, the party required to make

The

58

parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (A) the other party has an adequate remedy at law or (B) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that the Company is a third party beneficiary of the Equity Financing Commitment and that, pursuant to the terms thereof, the Company is entitled to seek specific performance of Parent’s and Guarantor’s obligations to cause the Equity Financing to be funded in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but only in the event, that (1) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at the Closing); (2) Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Closing in accordance with Section 1.02; (3) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice to Parent and Merger Sub that if specific performance is granted and each of the Equity Financing and the Debt Financing (or the Alternative Financing) is funded, then the Company would take such actions that are required of it by this Agreement to cause the Closing to occur; and (4) the Debt Financing (or the Alternative Financing, as the case may be) has been funded (or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing).

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (i) submits itself to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in State of Delaware and any appellate court therefrom, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement hereof and thereof, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware and (iv) consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 9.04. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 9.04 shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement, any claim that it is not personally subject to the

59

jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 9.11, 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 to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, that the Proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Proceeding is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each party hereto expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the Law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and of the United States of America; provided, however, that each such party’s consent to jurisdiction and service contained in this Section 9.11 is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 9.11 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to said courts or in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania other than for such purpose. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.11(a) to the contrary, if any of the courts designated in the preceding sentences of this Section 9.11(a) are functionally unavailable as a result of any Public Health Event or any Public Health Event Measures, each party hereto agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of any federal court with jurisdiction over the parties hereto solely in respect of applications for temporary, status quo or interim injunctive relief.

SECTION 9.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO 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 AND ALL RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THEREOF. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12.

SECTION 9.13. Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the parties hereto on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates hereby: (a) agrees that any Proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or

60

any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agrees that any such Proceeding shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), (c) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support any Proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, (d) agrees that service of process upon such party in any such Proceeding or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 9.04, (e) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Proceeding in any such court, (f) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any Proceeding brought against the Financing Sources in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (g) agrees that none of the Financing Sources will have any liability to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives any of their respective current, former or future officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders, limited partners, managers, members or partners relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder and (h) agrees that the Financing Sources are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions in this Agreement reflecting the foregoing agreements in this Section 9.13 (and such provisions shall not be amended in any way material to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the any lenders providing such Debt Financing).

SECTION 9.14. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner adverse to any party hereto.

To the fullest extent that the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as now in effect or as hereafter amended, permit elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable for monetary damages as such for any action taken, or any failure to take any action, as a director. The provisions of this Article shall be deemed to be a contract with each director of the Corporation who serves as such at any time while this Article is in effect and each such director shall be deemed to be so serving in reliance on the provisions of this Article. Any amendment or repeal of this Article or adoption of any Bylaw or provision of the Articles of the Corporation which has the effect of increasing director liability shall operate prospectively only and shall not have any effect with respect to any action taken, or any failure to act, by a director prior thereto.

TENTH:    Indemnification of, and Advancement of Expenses. (a) Except as prohibited by law, every director and officer of the Corporation shall be entitled as of right to be indemnified by the Corporation against expenses and any liabilities paid or incurred by such person in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding, civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other, whether brought by or in the right of the Corporation or otherwise, in which he or she may be involved in any manner, as a party, witness or otherwise, or is threatened to be made so involved, by reason of such person being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or of a subsidiary of the Corporation or by reason of the fact that such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or other representative of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity (such claim, action, suit or proceeding hereinafter being referred to as an “Action”) to the fullest extent permitted under the Pennsylvania BCL. Such right shall be a contract right and as such shall run to the benefit of any director or officer who is elected and accepts the position of director or officer of the Corporation or elects to continue to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation while this Article is in effect. Any repeal or amendment of this Article shall be prospective only and shall not limit the rights of any such director or officer or the obligations of the Corporation with respect to any claim arising from or related to the services of such director or officer in any of the foregoing capacities prior to any such repeal or amendment to this Article. Persons who are not directors or officers of the Corporation may be similarly indemnified in respect of service to the Corporation or to another such entity at the request of the Corporation to the extent the Board of Directors at any time denominates any of such persons as entitled to the benefits of this Article. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by then applicable law, the grant of mandatory indemnification pursuant to this Article shall extend to proceedings involving the negligence of such person. As used in this Article, “indemnitee” shall include each director and officer of the Corporation and each other person denominated by the Board of Directors as entitled to the benefits of this Article, “expenses” shall mean all expenses actually and reasonably incurred, including fees and expenses of counsel selected by an indemnitee, and “liabilities” shall mean amounts of judgments, excise taxes, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement.

(c)     Additional Rights. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall also be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action that such indemnification or advancement of costs of defense is not permitted under the Pennsylvania BCL, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or shareholders) to have made its determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of, or advancement of costs of defense to, the claimant is permissible in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or shareholders) that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible. In the event of the death of any person having a right of indemnification under the foregoing provisions, such right shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors, administrators, and personal representatives. The rights conferred above shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, bylaw, resolution of shareholders or directors, agreement, or otherwise.
