(a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Dissenting Company Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.6(a), but rather, the holders of Dissenting Company Shares shall be entitled only to payment of the appraisal value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL less any applicable Taxes required to be withheld in accordance with Section 2.12 with respect to such payment (and, at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and such holders shall cease to have any right with respect thereto, except the right to receive the appraisal value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL); provided, that, if any such holder of Dissenting Company Shares shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal and payment under and to the extent set forth in and in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (whether occurring before, at or after the Effective Time), then the right of such holder to be paid the appraisal value of such holder’s Dissenting Company Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Company Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for, the right to receive the Merger Consideration (without interest thereon) as provided in Section 2.6(a), and such shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Company Shares.

(b)    The Company shall give Parent: (i) prompt written notice of (A) any written demand for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL or any other written communication with the Company that relates to a demand for appraisal or payment with respect to Dissenting Company Shares; (B) any withdrawal or attempted withdrawal of any such demand; and (C) any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL with respect to the exercise or purported exercise of appraisal rights; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in, at Parent’s election and expense, all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment or settlement offer or settle any such demands prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. Each holder of Dissenting Company Shares who becomes entitled under Section 262 of the DGCL to receive payment of the “fair value” for such holder’s shares shall receive such payment therefor from the Surviving Company or its designee after giving effect to any withholdings required by applicable Law (but only after the amount thereof shall have been finally determined pursuant to the DGCL), and such shares shall be retired and cancelled as of the Effective Time.

2.8.    Equity Awards.

(a)    Company RSUs. Subject to the exceptions set forth in Items 2 and 3 of Section 5.2(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter, each Company RSU that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is then vested or would become vested pursuant to its terms on or before the first anniversary of the Closing Date, will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration; multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares subject to the portion of such Company RSU (the “Company RSU Consideration”) that is then vested or would become vested pursuant to its terms on or before the first anniversary of the closing date, subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. Parent will assume all other Company RSUs (the “Assumed Company RSUs”) that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and at the Effective Time each such Company RSU will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Company RSU Consideration, which shall vest (if applicable) and become payable by the Surviving Company to the holder thereof in accordance with the vesting schedule and terms and conditions applicable to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acceleration provisions applicable to the award) and will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Effective Time each Company RSU, including the Assumed Company RSUs, will cease to represent the right to receive Company Common Shares and will not represent any right to receive any equity securities of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(b)    Company LTIP Target PSUs. Parent will assume all Company LTIP Target PSUs that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and at the Effective Time each such Company LTIP Target PSU will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration; multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares subject to such Company LTIP Target PSU (the “Company LTIP Target PSU Consideration”), which shall vest (if applicable) and become payable by the Surviving Company to the holder thereof in accordance with the time-based vesting schedule for the award (but in no event earlier than the end of the applicable performance period) and terms and conditions applicable to such Company LTIP Target PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acceleration provisions applicable to the award). For purposes of the previous sentence, the number of Company Common Shares subject to a Company LTIP Target PSU in which the performance period applicable to such award has not been completed as of the Effective Time will be deemed to be the number of shares eligible to vest based on the target level of performance (which, for purposes of clarity, shall be the total number of shares subject to the award in the case of an award with respect to which the performance-based vesting requirements vest in full on achievement of target performance and was granted in tandem with a Company LTIP Overachievement PSU), and the performance-based vesting requirements shall no longer apply to the award from and after the Effective Time. The payment of the Company LTIP Target PSU Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Effective Time each Company LTIP Target PSU will cease to represent the right to receive Company Common Shares and will not represent any right to receive any equity securities of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(c)    Company LTIP Overachievement PSUs. Parent will assume all Company LTIP Overachievement PSUs that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by individuals who are employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at that time, and at the Effective Time each such Company LTIP Overachievement PSU will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration; multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares subject to such Company LTIP Overachievement PSU (the “Company LTIP Overachievement PSU Consideration”), which shall vest (if applicable) and become payable by the Surviving Company to the holder

- 23 -

thereof in accordance with the vesting schedule, performance-based vesting requirements, and other terms and conditions applicable to such Company LTIP Overachievement PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acceleration provisions applicable to the award). For purposes of clarity, no adjustment shall be made to the performance metrics applicable to the Company LTIP Overachievement PSU. The payment of the Company LTIP Overachievement PSU Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Effective Time each Company LTIP Overachievement PSU will cease to represent the right to receive Company Common Shares and will not represent any right to receive any equity securities of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Company LTIP Overachievement PSUs held by an individual who is not employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled without payment at the Effective Time.

(d)    Company 2019 Annual Target PSUs. Parent will assume all Company 2019 Annual Target PSUs that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and at the Effective Time each such Company 2019 Annual Target PSU will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration; multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares subject to such Company 2019 Annual Target PSU (the “Company 2019 Annual Target PSU Consideration”), which shall vest (if applicable) and become payable by the Surviving Company to the holder thereof in accordance with the vesting schedule, performance-based vesting requirements, and other terms and conditions applicable to such Company 2019 Annual Target PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acceleration provisions applicable to the award). For purposes of clarity, no adjustment shall be made to the performance metrics applicable to the Company 2019 Annual Target PSUs. The payment of the Company 2019 Annual Target PSU Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Effective Time each Company 2019 Annual Target PSU will cease to represent the right to receive Company Common Shares and will not represent any right to receive any equity securities of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(e)    Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSUs. Parent will assume all Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSUs that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and at the Effective Time each such Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration; multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares subject to such Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU (the “Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU Consideration”), which shall vest (if applicable) and become payable by the Surviving Company to the holder thereof in accordance with the vesting schedule, performance-based vesting requirements, and other terms and conditions applicable to such Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any acceleration provisions applicable to the award). For purposes of clarity, no adjustment shall be made to the performance metrics applicable to the Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSUs. The payment of the Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Effective Time each Company 2019 Annual Overachievement PSU will cease to represent the right to receive Company Common Shares and will not represent any right to receive any equity securities of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(f)    Company Options. Parent will not assume any Company Options that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and at the Effective Time each Company Option , whether vested or unvested, will, without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) the amount of the Merger Consideration (less the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Option); multiplied by (ii) the total number of Company Common Shares issuable upon exercise in full of such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to Company

- 24 -

Options for which the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Options is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Options will be cancelled without any cash payment being made in respect thereof. The payment of the Option Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes pursuant to Section 2.12.

(g)    Payment Procedures. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the aggregate (i) Company RSU Consideration owed to all holders of Company RSUs (other than Assumed Company RSUs); and (ii) Option Consideration owed to all holders of Company Options. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the applicable holders of Company RSUs (other than Assumed Company RSUs) and Company Options will receive a payment from the Company or the Surviving Company (or applicable Subsidiary employer), through its payroll system or payroll provider, of all amounts required to be paid to such holders in respect of Company RSUs (other than Assumed Company RSUs) or Company Options that are cancelled and converted pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or Section 2.8(f), as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment owed to a holder of Company RSUs (other than Assumed Company RSUs) or Company Options pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or Section 2.8(f), as applicable, cannot be made through the Company’s or the Surviving Company’s payroll system or payroll provider, then the Surviving Company will issue a check for such payment to such holder, which check will be sent by overnight courier to such holder as soon as practicable following the Closing Date (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days thereafter).

(h)    Further Actions. The Company Board (or, if appropriate, a committee thereof) will adopt such resolutions, or take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting, to provide for the treatment of Company Equity Awards as contemplated by this Section 2.8 (including the satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 16b-3(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act).

2.9.    Exchange of Certificates.

(a)    Paying Agent. Parent will (i) not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the paying agent for the Merger (the “Paying Agent”); and (ii) prior to the Effective Time enter into a paying agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with such Paying Agent.

(b)    Payment Fund. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Paying Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the Company Shareholders pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii), an amount of cash sufficient to pay the aggregate consideration to which such Company Shareholders become entitled pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii); provided that, no such deposit shall be necessary in respect of Owned Company Shares or Dissenting Company Shares. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such cash will be invested by the Paying Agent, as directed by Parent or the Surviving Company, in (i) obligations of or fully guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States with a maturity of no more than 30 days; (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively; or (iii) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10,000,000,000 (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) (such cash and any proceeds thereon, the “Payment Fund”). No losses with respect to any investments of the Payment Fund will diminish the rights of any Company Shareholders. If the Payment Fund is for any reason below the level required for the Paying Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.6(a)(ii) or if all or portion of the Payment Fund is unavailable for Parent (or the Paying Agent on behalf of Parent) to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.6(a)(ii) for any reason, Parent will, or will cause the Surviving Company to, promptly deposit additional cash in the Payment Fund so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is at a level sufficient for the Paying Agent to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.6(a)(ii). Any income from investment of the Payment Fund shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Surviving Company, and no part of such income shall accrue

- 25 -

to the benefit of the Company Shareholders and will be payable to any Person as the Surviving Company directs. Subject to Section 2.9(g), the Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than the payment to Company Shareholders as contemplated by Section 2.6(a)(ii).

(c)    Payment Procedures. Promptly following the Effective Time (and in any event within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time), Parent and the Surviving Company will cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than with respect to Dissenting Company Shares or Owned Company Shares) of (i) a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Common Shares (other than Dissenting Company Shares or Owned Company Shares) (the “Certificates” (if any)); and (ii) uncertificated Company Common Shares that represented outstanding Company Common Shares (other than Dissenting Company Shares or Owned Company Shares) (the “Uncertificated Shares”) (A) in the case of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares not held through DTC, a letter of transmittal in such customary form as Parent, the Company and the Paying Agent reasonably agree (which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent); and (B) in the case of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares held through DTC, instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii). Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of Company Common Shares represented by such Certificate; by (y) the Merger Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof), and the Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of a letter of transmittal in respect of Uncertificated Shares not held through DTC, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Uncertificated Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of Company Common Shares represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares; by (y) the Merger Consideration (less any Taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 2.12), and the transferred Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be cancelled. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares not held through DTC, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of Company Common Shares represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares; by (2) the Merger Consideration (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof), and the transferred Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be cancelled. The Paying Agent will accept such Certificates and transferred Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 2.9(c). Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no holder of Uncertificated Shares held through DTC will be required to provide a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent in order to receive the payment that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii).

(d)    DTC Payment. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company will cooperate to establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) with the objective that the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees on the first (1st) Business Day after the Closing Date an amount in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, equal to (A) the number of Company Common Shares (other than Owned Company Shares and Dissenting Company Shares) held of record by DTC or such nominees immediately prior to the Effective Time; multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration.

- 26 -

(e)    Transfers of Ownership. If a transfer of ownership of Company Common Shares is not registered in the transfer books of the Company, or if the Merger Consideration is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates surrendered or transferred in exchange therefor are registered in the transfer books of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered or transferred is registered in the transfer books of the Company only if such Certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer and the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable. Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Uncertificated Shares will only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered.

(f)    No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Paying Agent, Parent, the Surviving Company or any other Party will be liable to a holder of Company Common Shares for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g)    Distribution of Payment Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the date that is one (1) year after the Effective Time will be delivered to Parent (or the Surviving Company as directed by Parent) upon demand, and any Company Shareholders who have not theretofore surrendered or transferred their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such Company Common Shares for exchange pursuant to this Section 2.9 will thereafter look for payment of the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Company Common Shares represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares solely to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws), solely as general creditors thereof, for any claim to the Merger Consideration to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii). Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares as of immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority, will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders (and their successors, assigns or personal representatives) previously entitled thereto.

2.10.    No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Shares. From and after the Effective Time, (a) all Company Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist; and (b) each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares theretofore representing any Company Common Shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable therefor in accordance with Section 2.6(a)(ii) or, in the case of Dissenting Company Shares, the rights pursuant to Section 2.7. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Common Shares. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Company of Company Common Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Company for any reason, they will (subject to compliance with the payment procedures of Section 2.9(c)) be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

2.11.    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange therefor, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(ii). Parent or the Paying Agent may, in its reasonable determination and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such reasonable amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the

- 27 -

Surviving Company or the Paying Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.12.    Required Withholding. Each of the Paying Agent, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Company will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom pursuant to any Tax Laws. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

2.13.    Necessary Further Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, then the directors and officers of the Company and Merger Sub as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be authorized and empowered to take all such lawful and necessary action.

As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has delivered to the Company true, correct and complete copies of (i) duly executed equity commitment letters, dated as of the date of this Agreement, between Parent and each of the Guarantors (the “Equity Commitment Letters”) pursuant to which the Guarantors have committed to provide the equity financing as described therein (the “Equity Financing”); and (ii) a duly executed debt commitment letter, dated as of the date of this Agreement, among Parent and the financial institutions party thereto (the “Lenders”) (including all exhibits, schedules, and annexes thereto, as may be amended or modified in accordance with the terms hereof, collectively the “Debt Commitment Letters” and, together with the Equity Commitment Letter, the “Financing Letters”), pursuant to which the Lenders have committed, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to provide the debt financing described therein (the “Debt Financing” and, together with the Equity Financing, the “Financing”). As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has also delivered to the Company a true, correct and complete copy of each fee letter (which may be redacted only with respect to fees, pricing, price caps in “market flex” provisions, other economic terms, thresholds, caps and “securities demand” provisions that are customarily redacted in connection with merger agreements of this type) in connection with the Debt Commitment Letters (any such letter, a “Fee Letter”). The Equity Commitment Letter provides that the Company is an express third party beneficiary thereof.

As of the date of this Agreement, (i) the Financing Letters and the terms of the Financing have not been amended or modified; (ii) no such amendment or modification is contemplated except as otherwise expressly set forth therein; and (iii) the respective commitments contained in the Financing Letters have not been withdrawn (or contemplated to be), terminated or rescinded in any respect by Merger Sub and Parent and, to the knowledge of Merger Sub and Parent, the other parties thereto.

(c)    Sufficiency of Financing. Assuming (i) the Financing is funded in accordance with the applicable Financing Letters and (ii) the satisfaction of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligation to consummate the Merger (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction), the Financing is sufficient to (i) make all payments, without duplication, contemplated by Sections 2.6, 2.8 and 2.9 in connection with the Merger; and (ii) pay all fees and expenses required to be paid by Parent or Merger Sub in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, including those required to be paid at the Closing in connection with the Merger and the Financing (clauses (i) through (ii), the “Required Amount”). Parent acknowledges that its and Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement are not conditioned upon or subject to its receipt of the proceeds made available under the Financing Letters or any Financing.

- 47 -

and other similar Laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. Other than as expressly set forth in the Financing Letters or the Fee Letter, there are no conditions precedent related to the funding of the Financing necessary to pay the Required Amount pursuant to any agreement relating to the Financing to which any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates is a party. Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII, to the knowledge of Parent and Merger Sub, as of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would, or would reasonably be expected to, (A) constitute a default, breach or failure to satisfy a condition precedent set forth in the Financing Letters, or (B) result in any portion of the Financing necessary to pay the Required Amount being unavailable on the Closing Date, assuming the conditions to the Financing are satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII, Parent has no reason to believe that (i) it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition to the funding of the Financing necessary to pay the Required Amount to be satisfied by it contained in the Financing Letters, or (ii) the amount of the Financing necessary to pay the Required Amount will not be available on the Closing Date in order to fund the Transactions. As of the date hereof, (i) no party to any Financing Letter or the Fee Letter has notified Parent of its intention to terminate any of the commitments set forth in the Financing Letters or not to provide the Financing and (ii) no termination of any commitment set forth in the Financing Letters is contemplated by Parent. As of the date of this Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have fully paid, or caused to be fully paid, all commitment or other fees that are due and payable on or prior to the date of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Financing Letters.

4.13.    Solvency. Neither Merger Sub nor Parent is entering into this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Time and immediately after giving effect to the Merger (including the payment of all amounts payable pursuant to Article II in connection with or as a result of the Merger and all related fees and expenses of Parent) and assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII, (a) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets of the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will exceed the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) on their existing debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts mature; (b) the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which they are engaged or proposed to be engaged; and (c) the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be able to pay their liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature in the ordinary course of business.

4.14.    Certain Arrangements. As of (a) the date of this Agreement and (b) following the date hereof until the No-Shop Period Start Date, there are no Contracts or other arrangements or understandings (whether oral or written and whether or not legally binding) or commitments to enter into Contracts or other arrangements or understandings (whether oral or written and whether or not legally binding) (i) between Parent, Merger Sub, the

- 48 -

Guarantors or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and any member of the Company’s management or board of directors or any beneficial owner of Company Common Shares, on the other hand, that relate in any way to the Company or any of its businesses or Subsidiaries (including those businesses and Subsidiaries following the Closing) or the Transactions (including as to continuing employment or equity roll-over) or (ii) pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company would be entitled to receive value or consideration of a different amount or nature than the Merger Consideration or pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company agrees to vote any Company Common Shares with respect to the Agreement or agrees to vote against or otherwise oppose any Superior Proposal.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may continue to take any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 5.3(b) above with respect to any Excluded Party (for so long as such Person or group is an Excluded Party) from and after the No-Shop Period Start Date until the earliest of the date on which (A) the Excluded Party has terminated or finally withdrawn the Acquisition Proposal made prior to the No-Shop Period Start Date (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any amended, supplemented or modified Acquisition Proposal submitted by such Excluded Party shall not be deemed to constitute, in and of itself, a termination or withdrawal of such previously submitted Acquisition Proposal), (B) the Person submitting the relevant Acquisition Proposal ceases to be an Excluded Party because the Company Board (after consultation with outside legal counsel and its financial advisors), determines that such Acquisition Proposal does not constitute or would not reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, and (C) the Requisite Shareholder Approval is obtained. From the No-Shop Period Start Date until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective directors and officers not to, and shall not authorize or permit its and its Subsidiaries’ unaffiliated Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (x) terminate, amend, release, modify or waive any provision of or fail to enforce any confidentiality or non-solicitation provision under a confidentiality agreement, (y) grant any waiver, amendment or release under any Takeover Laws or (z) resolve, agree or propose to do any of the foregoing, in each case, except if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with is outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in the Company Board’s violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees that if any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives (excluding Representatives (other than directors and officers who are also directors or officers of the Company) of non-wholly owned Subsidiaries but only if the action or failure to take action is in respect of such Subsidiary (or its Subsidiaries) and not the Company or any of its other Subsidiaries) takes (or omits to take) any action that if taken (or not taken) would constitute a breach of this Section 5.3(b), then such action (or inaction) shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 5.3(b) by the Company.

Notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth in this Agreement, including this Section 5.3(c), and subject to the rights of the Company with respect to Excluded Parties pursuant to Section 5.3(b), including the right to continue and maintain discussions and negotiations with, and provide information to, any Excluded Parties pursuant to Section 5.3(b), from the No-Shop Period Start Date until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Company’s receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval, the Company and the Company Board may, directly or indirectly through one or more of their Representatives (including the Advisor), participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, furnish any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement to any Person or its Representatives that has made, renewed or delivered to the Company an Acquisition Proposal after the date of this Agreement that did not result from any material breach of Section 5.3(b), and otherwise facilitate such Acquisition Proposal or assist such Person (and its Representatives and financing sources) with such Acquisition Proposal (in each case, if requested by such Person) if, and only if, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take such action contemplated by this Section 5.3(c) would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; provided that the Company will promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) make available to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that is provided to any such Person or its Representatives that was not previously made available to Parent.

(d)    No Change in Company Board Recommendation or Entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as provided by Section 5.3(e) and, solely in the case of Section 5.3(e)(i) below, Section 5.3(g), at no time after the date of this Agreement may the Company Board:

(ii)    cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e)    Company Board Recommendation Change; Entry into Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Requisite Shareholder Approval:

- 55 -

Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; provided that the Company Board shall not effect such a Company Board Recommendation Change unless:

(1)    the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least three (3) Business Days in advance of effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change to the effect that the Company Board has (A) so determined; and (B) resolved to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.3(e)(i) absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.3(e)(i), which notice will specify the applicable Intervening Event in reasonable detail;

(2)    prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company and its Representatives, during such three (3) Business Day period, are reasonably available to negotiate with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement as would permit the Company Board to no longer determine that the failure to make a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to such Intervening Event would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; and

(3)    following such three (3) Business Day period, after taking into account any revisions to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement agreed to by Parent in writing, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change (other than of the kind set forth in clause (B) of the definition thereof) in response to such Intervening Event would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; or

(ii)    if the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) constitutes a Superior Proposal, then the Company Board may (A) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; or (B) authorize the Company to terminate this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement providing for the Acquisition Transaction contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal (and the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h), including paying the Company Termination Fee in accordance with Section 8.3(b)(iii)); provided that the Company Board shall not take any action described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) unless:

(1)    following the Notice Period, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that, after taking into account any revisions to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement agreed to by Parent in writing, the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Laws;

(2)    such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a material breach of Section 5.3(b); and

(3)    (i) the Company has provided prior written notice (it being understood and agreed that the delivery of such notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to be a Company Board Recommendation Change) to Parent at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the Company Board taking any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) (the “Notice Period”) to the effect that the Company Board has (A) received a Superior Proposal; and (B) resolved to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.3(e)(ii) and Section 8.1(h); (ii) such notice has included the identity of the Third Person or Persons making such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal and has attached a copy of any Acquisition Proposal (including the financing contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal), copies of the Alternative Acquisition Agreement and any other

- 56 -

document relating to such Acquisition Proposal provided by the Third Person or Persons making such Acquisition Proposal; and (iii) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change or termination of this Agreement, the Company and its Representatives, during the Notice Period, are reasonably available to negotiate with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements as would permit the Company Board to determine that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that in the event of any modification or revision (or proposed written modification or revision) to the price, conditions or other material terms of such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.3(e)(ii)(3) with respect to such amended or modified Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be the longer of two (2) Business Days and the number of Business Days remaining in the current notice period).

Every seventh (7^th) day after the date hereof ending on the No-Shop Period Start Date, the Company shall provide written notice to Parent disclosing (i) a copy of any written Acquisition Proposal received after the date hereof and as of the date of such notice and copies of all relevant documents relating to such Acquisition Proposal received by the Company from a Third Person and (ii) the number of Acceptable Confidentiality Agreements entered into after the date hereof and as of the date of such notice (inclusive of any Acceptable Confidentiality Agreements entered into prior to the date hereof if the counterparty to such Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement is actively engaged in discussions or negotiations with the Company regarding an Acquisition Proposal prior to the No-Shop Period Start Date); provided, that in no event shall the Company be required to provide the identity of any Third Party in any such notice pursuant to this sentence.

(ii)    From the No-Shop Period Start Date and until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company will promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) notify Parent if any Acquisition Proposals are received by the Company or any of its Representatives from any Person or “group” of Persons other than any Excluded Party.

However, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub may designate any non-public information provided to any Governmental Authority as restricted to “outside counsel” only and any such information shall not be shared with employees,

- 60 -

officers or directors or their equivalents of the other Party without approval of the Party providing the non-public information; provided, however, that each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub may redact any valuation and related information before sharing any information provided to any Governmental Authority with another Party on an “outside counsel” only basis, and that the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall not in any event be required to share information that benefits from legal privilege with the other Parties, even on an “outside counsel” only basis, where this would cause such information to cease to benefit from legal privilege.

(e)    Other Actions. Each of Parent and Merger Sub agrees that, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, enter into any Contracts for an acquisition (by stock purchase, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, purchase of assets, license or otherwise) of any ownership interest or assets of any Person that would likely prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger.

The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to comply with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ. Subject to applicable Law, the Company may not file the Proxy Statement with the SEC without providing Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon and the Company will give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by Parent or its counsel. Parent shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement, and Parent shall provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Company and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the Company in the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement, and the resolution of any comments received from the SEC.

(c)    Comments. The Company shall reasonably promptly notify Parent of (i) the receipt of any comments from the SEC and all other written correspondence and oral communications with the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement and (ii) any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or for additional information with respect thereto and, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), the Company shall promptly provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between it and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement.

(d)    Furnishing Information. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, will furnish all information concerning it and its Affiliates, if applicable, as the other Party may

- 61 -

reasonably request in connection with the preparation and filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement. If at any time prior to the Company Shareholder Meeting any information relating to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates is discovered by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Sub, on the other hand, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement so that such filing would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Party that discovers such information will promptly notify the other, and an appropriate amendment or supplement to such filing describing such information will be promptly prepared and filed with the SEC by the appropriate Party and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC or its staff, disseminated to the Company Shareholders.

(e)    Dissemination of Proxy Statement. Subject to applicable Law, the Company will cause the Proxy Statement to be disseminated to the Company Shareholders as promptly as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof with the SEC and confirmation from the SEC that it will not review, or that it has completed its review of, the Proxy Statement but in no event shall such dissemination be required earlier than the No-Shop Period Start Date.

6.4.    Company Shareholder Meeting.

(a)    Call of Company Shareholder Meeting. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 5.3, the Company will take all action necessary in accordance with the DGCL, the Charter, the Bylaws and the rules and regulations of NASDAQ to establish a record date for, duly call, and give notice of a meeting of the Company Shareholders (the “Company Shareholder Meeting”) and, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company Shareholders, convene and hold the Company Shareholder Meeting for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Shareholder Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company will not be required to convene and hold the Company Shareholder Meeting at any time prior to the 20th Business Day following the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company Shareholders. Subject to Section 5.3 and unless there has been a Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval. The Company shall keep Parent informed on a reasonably current basis regarding its solicitation efforts and proxy tallies following the dissemination of the Proxy Statement to the Company Shareholders; provided that the Company shall, upon the request of Parent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable proxy solicitor of the Company to advise Parent on a reasonable basis during the last ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the Company Shareholder Meeting as to the aggregate tally of the proxies received by the Company with respect to the Requisite Shareholder Approval.

(b)    Adjournment of Company Shareholder Meeting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent; provided, that if the Company or Parent reasonably determines in good faith that the Requisite Shareholder Approval is unlikely to be obtained at the Company Shareholders Meeting, including due to an absence of quorum, then on no more than two (2) occasions (for each of the Company and Parent) and prior to the vote contemplated having been taken, each of the Company and Parent shall have the right to require an adjournment or postponement of the Company Shareholders Meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional votes in favor of this Agreement; provided, further, that no single such adjournment or postponement pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso shall delay the Company Shareholders Meeting by more than seven (7) days from the prior-scheduled date or to a date on or after the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding the Termination Date; and provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing will prevent the Company from postponing or adjourning the date of the Company Shareholder Meeting if (i) the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholder Meeting by applicable Law, any order of a Governmental Authority or order or request from the SEC or its staff; or (ii) the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that it is necessary under applicable Law to postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholder Meeting to allow reasonable additional time for any supplemental or amended

- 62 -

disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by the Company Shareholders (including in connection with any Company Board Recommendation Change) prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting but only for up to such time that the Company Board determines (after consultation with outside legal counsel) is necessary under applicable Law, including in connection with the discharge of fiduciary duties of the Company Board. The Company agrees that no matters shall be brought before the Company Shareholders Meeting other than the Company Merger Vote Matters, the related “golden parachute” vote under Rule 14a-21(c) of the Exchange Act and any related and customary procedural matters (including a proposal to adjourn the meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Shareholder Approval).

(c)    The Company agrees that its obligation to hold the Company Shareholder Meeting pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Acquisition Proposal or by the making of any Company Board Recommendation Change by the Company Board, and nothing contained herein, other than the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, shall be deemed to relieve the Company of such obligation, subject to the ability of the Company Board to take the actions set forth in Section 5.3(e); provided, however, that if, the Company Board shall have effected a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of Section 5.3, then the Company Board shall submit this Agreement to the Company Shareholders, in which event the Company Board may communicate the Company Board Recommendation Change or the basis for its lack of a recommendation to the Company Shareholders in the Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto.

6.5.    Treatment of Company Indebtedness.

(a)    Credit Agreement. At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will cause to be delivered to Parent a payoff letter and all other releases, instruments of discharge and similar documentation required to effect or evidence the release described in clause (ii) below (collectively, the “Payoff Letter”), in customary form, to be executed and delivered as of the Closing by the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement (the “Existing Agent”), which shall (i) indicate the total amount necessary for the Company to repay and discharge in full all amounts outstanding pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement (other than for customary indemnity obligations that expressly survive by their terms) (such amount, the “Payoff Amount”), (ii) provide for the release, upon payment of the Payoff Amount at Closing (or replacement, cash collateralization or backstop of existing letters of credit and other bank services), of all liens of the Existing Agent securing obligations under the Credit Agreement over the properties and assets of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (other than any cash that is used to cash collateralize existing letters of credit or other bank services, if applicable) that constitute collateral under the Credit Agreement and any equity interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that constitute collateral under the Credit Agreement and (iii) evidence the termination or other satisfaction, upon payment of the Payoff Amount at Closing (or replacement, cash collateralization or backstop of existing letters of credit or bank services), of all obligations under the Credit Agreement (other than for customary indemnity obligations that expressly survive by their terms). Concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent will repay and discharge (or provide the funds to the Company to repay and discharge) such Indebtedness in accordance with the Payoff Letter.

(b)    Existing Notes. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all such actions as reasonably may be required with respect to the Existing Notes in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Existing Indentures or under applicable Law, including preparing any notices that may be required to be delivered prior to or upon the Closing with respect to the Existing Notes in connection with the Transactions and any repurchases or conversions of the Existing Notes occurring prior to the Effective Time as a result of or in connection with the Transactions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, to the extent reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Transactions and the consummation thereof, undertake the preparation of, and shall execute and deliver, any supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments reasonably required in connection with the Transactions and the consummation thereof pursuant to the Existing Indentures or under any applicable Law. The Company shall provide Parent and its Representatives reasonable

- 63 -

opportunity to review and comment on any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, conversion rate adjustments, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments deliverable pursuant to or in connection with either or both of the Existing Indentures prior to the dispatch, making or execution thereof, and the Company shall promptly respond to any reasonable questions from, and reflect any reasonable comments made by, Parent and its Representatives with respect thereto prior to the dispatch, making or execution thereof. In addition, the Company shall promptly notify Parent following the occurrence of any event that would require an adjustment to the applicable Conversion Rate (as defined in the applicable Existing Indenture) or any related or similar economic terms of any such Existing Indenture or the timing of any conversion, repurchase or similar rights or obligations under any of the Existing Indentures. To the extent reasonably practicable, the Company shall provide Parent and its Representatives with reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions between the trustee under any of the Existing Indentures or any Representative of any such trustee, on the one hand, and the Company or any of the Company’s Representatives, on the other hand.

6.6.    Financing.

(a)    No Amendments to Financing Letters. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of Parent and Merger Sub will not permit any amendment, replacement, supplement or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy pursuant to, the Financing Letters without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), which would, or would reasonably be expected to, (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing, including by changing the amount of the fees to be paid or the original issue discount of the Debt Financing, to any amount less than the Required Amount; (ii) impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Financing or any other terms to the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) materially delay or prevent the Closing Date; or (B) make the timely funding of the Financing, or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing, less likely to occur; (iii) adversely impact the ability of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Financing Letters or the definitive agreements with respect thereto; (iv) materially delay or prevent Closing; or (v) make the funding of any of the Financings (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining any of the Financings) less likely to occur (the terms described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (v), the “Prohibited Terms”); provided that Parent may (without the consent of the Company) replace, modify, waive or amend the Debt Commitment Letter (1) in accordance with the “market flex” provisions thereof; (2) to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms in effect on the date hereof; (3) reallocate commitments or assign or reassign titles or roles to, or between or among, any parties to the Financing Letters in accordance with the terms thereof; and (4) otherwise, so long as such amendment would not reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or impair the ability of Merger Sub and Parent to consummate the Transaction on the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement. Parent shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) furnish to the Company a copy of any amendment, replacement, supplement, modification or waiver relating to the Financing Letters. Any reference in this Agreement to (1) the “Financing” will include the financing contemplated by the Financing Letters as amended or modified; and (2) “Equity Commitment Letters,” “Debt Commitment Letters” or “Financing Letters” will include such documents as amended or modified.

(b)    Taking of Necessary Actions.

(i)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, although the parties acknowledge and agree that obtaining the Debt Financing is not a condition to Closing, each of Parent and Merger Sub will use its respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper and advisable to arrange, consummate and obtain the Debt Financing on or prior to the Closing Date, on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, the full exercise of any “flex” provisions in the Fee Letter) described in the Financing Letters and any related Fee Letter, including, but not limited to, using its reasonable best efforts to: (A) comply with and maintain in effect the Debt Financing Letters in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof and hereof; (B) negotiate, execute and deliver

- 64 -

definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters on a timely basis on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions in the Fee Letter) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters and related Fee Letter; (C) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letters and such definitive agreements related thereto and in the Equity Commitment Letters on or prior to the Closing Date, in each case, that are within their control; (D) upon the satisfaction (or waiver) of all of the conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter (other than the consummation of the Merger and other than the availability of the Equity Financing and those that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, including causing the Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing at the Closing; and (E) enforce its rights pursuant to the Debt Financing Letters.

(ii)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, although the parties acknowledge and agree that obtaining the Equity Financing is not a condition to Closing, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Equity Financing at the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, including to: (A) maintain the Equity Commitment Letter in effect; and (B) consummate the Equity Financing, including enforcing its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter and causing the Guarantor to fund the Equity Financing at the Closing.

(c)    Information. Parent, promptly upon request of the Company, shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing (including providing, upon request, copies of all other definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing and such other information and documentation available to Parent as shall be reasonably requested by the Company). Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company prompt (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) notice in writing (A) of any (1) actual or threatened (in writing) breach, default (or any event or circumstances that, with notice or lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach or default), termination, cancellation or repudiation by any party to any Financing Letter of which Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware, (2) breach or default by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case, of the Commitment Letters or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the Closing, or (3) of any dispute or disagreement between or among the parties to any of the Commitment Letters or the definitive documents related to the Financings with respect to the obligation to fund any of the Financings or the amount of the Financings to be funded at the Closing that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the Closing; (B) of the receipt by Parent or Merger Sub of any written notice or communication from any Financing Source with respect to any such actual or threatened breach, default (or any event or circumstances that, with notice or lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach or default), cancellation, termination or repudiation by any party to the Financing Letters or any definitive agreements related to the Financing of any provisions of the Financing Letters or such definitive agreements; or (C) if for any reason Parent or Merger Sub at any time believes that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing in an amount equal to the Required Amount on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Financing Letters or any definitive agreements related to the Financing. Parent and Merger Sub shall promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A), (B), or (C) of the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, failure to obtain all or any portion of the Financings (or any Alternate Debt Financing) shall not in and of itself relieve or alter the obligations of Parent or Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other transaction documents referred to herein upon the terms set forth herein and therein.

(d)    Alternate Debt Financing. If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, or Parent becomes aware of any event or circumstance that makes any portion of the Debt Financing unavailable on the terms (unless acceptable to Parent) and conditions (including any “flex” provisions in the Fee Letter) contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letters, Parent will promptly notify the Company in writing. Upon the occurrence of any circumstance referred to in the preceding sentence, Parent and Merger Sub will use their respective reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such event, (i) arrange and obtain the Debt Financing or such portion of the Debt Financing from the same or

- 65 -

alternative sources in an amount sufficient to assure the availability of the amount necessary to pay the Required Amount at the Closing (A) on conditions not less favorable in the aggregate to Parent and Merger Sub in any material respect than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letters and the related Fee Letter (including any “flex” provisions) and (B) containing conditions to draw, conditions to Closing and related terms that (1) are not materially more onerous than those conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letters and (2) would not reasonably be expected to materially delay the Closing or make the Closing materially less likely to occur and which shall not, in any event, contain any Prohibited Terms (the “Alternate Debt Financing”); and (ii) obtain one or more new financing commitment letters with respect to such Alternate Debt Financing (the “New Debt Commitment Letters”), which new letters will replace the existing Debt Commitment Letters in whole or in part. Parent will promptly provide a copy of any New Debt Commitment Letters (and any fee letter in connection therewith or other agreements related thereto, subject to redaction as permitted by Section 4.11(a)) to the Company. In the event that any New Debt Commitment Letters are obtained, (A) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing Letters” or the “Debt Commitment Letters” will be deemed to include the Debt Commitment Letters to the extent not superseded by a New Debt Commitment Letter at the time in question and any New Debt Commitment Letters to the extent then in effect; and (B) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing” or the “Debt Financing” means the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters as modified pursuant to the foregoing, it being understood that if Parent and Merger Sub proceed with any Alternate Debt Financing, the parties hereto shall be subject to the same obligations with respect to such Alternate Debt Financing as set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Debt Financing.

(e)    Letter of Credit. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to discuss with MUFG Americas Capital Leasing & Finance, LLC (“MUFG”) the return to the Company all cash collateral pledged by the Company to MUFG in connection with that certain Pledge Agreement dated August 26, 2016 between the Company and BTMU Capital Leasing & Finance, LLC (predecessor-in-interest to MUFG) and accept a letter of credit in the same amount as such cash collateral as a replacement therefor; provided, that such return and acceptance shall not be a condition to the Closing and the failure of the Company to comply with this Section 6.6(e) shall not be taken into account in determining whether the condition set forth in Section 7.2(b) is satisfied.

(f)    No Financing Condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by Parent and Merger Sub with this Section 6.6 shall not relieve Parent or Merger Sub of their respective obligations to consummate the Transactions whether or not the Financing is available, and Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge and agree that obtaining the Financing is not a condition to the Closing.

6.7.    Financing Cooperation.

(a)    Cooperation. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause each of its Subsidiaries and their respective officers, employees and advisers to use its respective reasonable best efforts, to provide Parent with all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent to assist it in connection with the arrangement of Debt Financing, including using reasonable best efforts in connection with:

(i)    participating in a reasonable and limited number of meetings, presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and sessions with rating agencies and otherwise reasonably cooperating with the marketing efforts of Parent and the Financing Sources with respect to the Debt Financing (including using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the syndication of the Debt Financing to benefit from the existing banking relationships of the Company);

(ii)    assisting Parent and the Financing Sources with the preparation of rating agency presentations and bank information memoranda customarily required in connection with the Financing;

(iii)    reasonably assisting Parent in connection with the preparation and registration of any pledge and security documents, supplemental indentures, currency or interest hedging arrangements and other definitive

- 66 -

financing documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent or the Financing Sources (including using reasonable best efforts to obtain consents of accountants for use of their reports in any materials relating to the Debt Financing, in each case as reasonably requested by Parent), and otherwise reasonably cooperating with Parent in facilitating the pledging of collateral and the granting of security interests required by the Debt Commitment Letters, subject to Section 6.7(b), executing and delivering any credit agreements, pledge and security documents, guarantees and other definitive financing documents or requested customary certificates and documents (including a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company with respect to solvency matters); provided that except for a customary authorization letter such documents will not take effect until the Effective Time;

(iv)    if any of the Indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Credit Agreement remains outstanding as of the Closing, obtaining customary payoff letters, lien terminations and instruments of discharge (A) indicating the amount required for the payoff, discharge and termination in full on the Closing Date of such Indebtedness and liens thereunder which are required to be terminated and released substantially concurrently with the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Debt Commitment Letter to discharge such Indebtedness at Closing and/or releasing the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries thereunder, and (B) if such Indebtedness is secured by any liens, agreeing to release such liens upon receipt of the payoff amount;

(v)    providing the Required Information; and

(vi)    furnishing Parent and any Financing Sources promptly, and in any event at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, with all necessary documentation and other information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries required by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Debt Financing under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, as amended, to the extent requested by Parent in writing at least nine (9) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date, including a Beneficial Ownership Certification as defined in 31 C.F.R. §1010.230;

(b)    Obligations of the Company. Nothing in this Section 6.7 will require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their directors, officers or employees to (i) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any fees or reimburse any expenses or incur any liability of any kind or cause their Representatives to incur any liability of any kind (unless such liability is covered as a Reimbursement Obligation) prior to the Effective Time for which it has not received prior reimbursement or is not otherwise indemnified by or on behalf of Parent; (ii) cause any condition set forth in Article VII to fail to be satisfied; (iii) enter into any definitive certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument prior to the Effective Time (other than the authorization letters referred to in the definition of Required Information); (iv) give any indemnities that are effective prior to the Effective Time; (v) take any action that, in the good faith determination of the Company, would (A) unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business or the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) cause any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be breached, (C) cause the Company or any director, manager, officer or employee of the Company to incur any personal liability, (D) require the Company or any of the its Subsidiaries to take any action that will conflict with or violate the Company’s Organizational Documents or any Laws, or result in the contravention thereof, or (E) reasonably be expected to result in a violation or breach of, or default under, any material Contract not entered into in contemplation hereof to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party (it being agreed that the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to notify Parent and Merger Sub and cooperate in good faith to design and implement alternative arrangements to avoid such conflicts); (vi) provide or prepare pro forma financial information, including pro forma costs savings, synergies, capitalization or other pro forma adjustments desired to be incorporated into any pro forma financing information; (vii) provide any certificate, comfort letter or opinion of any of its representatives; (viii) provide access to or disclose any information to Parent or its representatives to the extent such disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protections or similar protections or violate any applicable Law (it being agreed that the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in good faith

- 67 -

to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable Parent or its representatives to evaluate any such information without resulting in any waiver of such privileges or protections or contravention of Law or Contract). In addition, no action, liability or obligation of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument relating to the Debt Financing will be effective until the Effective Time (other than with respect to the authorization letters referred to in the definition of Required Information), and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to take any action pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument that is not contingent on the occurrence of the Closing or that must be effective prior to the Effective Time. Nothing in this Section 6.7 will require (A) any officer or Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to deliver any certificate or opinion or take any other action under this Section 6.7 that could reasonably be expected to result in personal liability to such officer or Representative or (B) the Company Board to approve any financing or Contracts related thereto prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 6.7 for all purposes hereunder, and Parent shall not allege that the Company is or has not been in compliance with this Section 6.7 for any purpose hereunder, unless (i) Parent provides reasonably prompt written notice of the alleged failure to comply, specifying in reasonable detail specific steps to cure such alleged failure in a manner consistent with this Section 6.7, which failure to comply has not been cured on or prior to the later of (x) the Closing Date and (y) five (5) Business Days from receipt of such written notice and (ii) such failure to comply was a proximate cause of the failure of the Financing to be obtained on or before the Closing Date.

(c)    Use of Logos. The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Financing so long as such logos (i) are used solely in a manner that is not intended to, or reasonably likely to, harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and (ii) are used solely in connection with a description of the Debt Financing, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, its or their respective businesses and products, or the Transactions.

(d)    Confidentiality. All non-public or other confidential information provided by the Company or any of its Representatives pursuant to this Section 6.7 will be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Parent and Merger Sub will be permitted to disclose such information to any financing sources or prospective financing sources and other financial institutions and investors that are or may become parties to the Debt Financing and to any underwriters, initial purchasers or placement agents in connection with the Debt Financing and limited partners of investment funds that are Affiliates of either of the Guarantors (and, in each case, to their respective Representatives) so long as such Persons (i) agree to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement as if parties thereto; or (ii) are otherwise subject to other customary confidentiality undertakings.

(e)    Reimbursement. Promptly upon request by the Company, Parent will reimburse the Company for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives (if any) in connection with the cooperation of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Representatives contemplated by this Section 6.7.

(f)    Indemnification. Parent and Merger Sub, on a joint and several basis, shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), interest, awards, judgments, penalties and amounts paid in settlement suffered or incurred by them in connection with their cooperation in arranging the Debt Financing pursuant to this Agreement or the provision of information utilized in connection therewith (other than arising from (i) historical financial information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries provided expressly for use in connection with the Debt Financing or (ii) the gross negligence, Fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives). Parent’s obligations pursuant to Section 6.7(e) and this Section 6.7(f) are referred to collectively as the “Reimbursement Obligations.”

- 68 -

6.8.    Anti-Takeover Laws. The Company, the Company Board and Parent shall not take any action that would cause the Transactions to be subject to requirements imposed by any Takeover Law. If any “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “supermajority,” “affiliate transactions” or “business combination statute or regulation” or other similar state Takeover Laws and regulations may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the Transactions, each of the Company and Parent shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the Transactions.

6.9.    Access. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company will afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, consistent with applicable Law, during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice provided in writing to the General Counsel of the Company, or another Person designated in writing by the Company, to the properties, books and records and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries, except that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (a) any applicable Law or Contract requires the Company to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information; (b) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (c) access to a Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or otherwise bound as of the date of this Agreement or entered into after the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give a Third Person the right terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; (d) access would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of Third Persons; or (e) such documents or information are reasonably pertinent to any adverse Legal Proceeding between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand; provided that in each case described in clauses (a) through (d) the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop alternative methods of providing such information in a manner that would not result in any violation, default, prejudice or loss of privilege. Nothing in this Section 6.9 will be construed to require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.9 will be conducted in a manner that (i) does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or otherwise result in any significant interference with the prompt and timely discharge by officers, employees and other authorized Representatives of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of their normal duties, or (ii) create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Any access to the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures and insurance requirements. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement will apply to any information obtained by Parent or any of its Representatives in connection with any investigation conducted or information provided pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.9.

6.10.    Section 16(b) Exemption. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, shall be permitted to adopt one or more resolutions consistent with the interpretive guidance of the SEC to cause any dispositions or deemed dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the Transactions by each individual (including any Person who is deemed to be a “director by deputization” under applicable securities Laws) who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.11.    Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a)    Indemnified Persons. From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any indemnification agreements

- 69 -

between the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of their respective current or former directors or officers (and any person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time), on the other hand (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors and administrators, an “Indemnified Person” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) (whether or not a party to an indemnification agreement), in effect on the date of this Agreement and made available to Parent (“Existing Indemnification Agreements”). In addition, from and after the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) cause the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable for periods prior to the Effective Time as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Charter, Bylaws and Organizational Documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date of this Agreement. During such period, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner except as required by applicable Law.

(b)    Indemnification Obligation. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 6.11(a), from and after the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Company will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company to) to the fullest extent such persons are indemnified as of the date of this Agreement pursuant to applicable Law, the Charter, the Bylaws, the Organizational Documents of any Subsidiary of the Company and the Existing Indemnification Agreements, as applicable, indemnify and hold harmless, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, losses, claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding or other claim, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, whenever asserted, including any threatened Legal Proceeding or other claim, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding or other claim arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, to (i) the fact that an Indemnified Person was at any time at or prior to the Effective Time a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or such Subsidiary; and (ii) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions), in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or taken at the request of the Company or such Subsidiary (including in connection with serving at the request of the Company or such Subsidiary as a director, officer, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary of another Person (including any employee benefit plan)); except that if, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.11(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding or other claim, the Surviving Company will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company to) advance all fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of any counsel) as incurred by an Indemnified Person in the defense of such Legal Proceeding; provided that the person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined through a final, non-appealable court order that such Person is not entitled to indemnification but only to the extent such repayment is required by applicable Law, the Charter, the Bylaws or other applicable Organizational Documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company or applicable indemnification agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, the Surviving Company nor any of their respective Affiliates will settle or otherwise compromise or consent without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or otherwise seek the termination of, any Legal Proceeding or other claim for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Legal Proceeding, including from any monetary obligations and does not include any equitable relief.

(c)    D&O Insurance. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Company will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company

- 70 -

to) maintain for the benefit of the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries, at any time prior to the Effective Time, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate than those of the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect on the date of this Agreement (the “Existing D&O Insurance”). In satisfying its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.11(c), the Surviving Company will not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such 300% amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”). If the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Annual Premium, then the Surviving Company will be obligated to obtain (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company to obtain) a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the Existing D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier so long as the annual cost for such “tail” policy does not exceed the Maximum Annual Premium. If the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Company will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder for so long as such “tail” policy is in full force and effect, and the Surviving Company and Parent will be relieved of their obligations under the first sentence of this Section 6.11(c).

(d)    Successors and Assigns. If Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates or amalgamates with or merge into any other Person and not be the continuing or surviving company or entity in such consolidation, amalgamation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns, as applicable, will assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Company, as applicable, set forth in this Section 6.11.

(e)    No Impairment. Each of the Indemnified Persons or other Persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.11(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.11, with full rights of enforcement as if a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other Persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.11(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) pursuant to this Section 6.11 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such Persons may have pursuant to (i) the Charter and Bylaws; (ii) the Organizational Documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company; (iii) any and all indemnification and advancement agreements entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any Existing Indemnification Agreements); or (iv) applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

(f)    Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations of the Surviving Company, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 6.11 will be joint and several.

(g)    Other Claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.11 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or agreements.

6.12.    Employee Matters.

(a)    280G. Promptly following the date hereof, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to determine whether and to what extent any payment or benefit that will be made by Parent, the

- 71 -

Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates in connection with the Transactions (whether alone or in combination with any other event) would reasonably be expected to constitute a parachute payment within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

(b)    Employment; Benefits. For a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) (i) provide each Continuing Employee with employee benefits (excluding equity-based benefits or compensation) under plans of the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Company Plans”) that are, in the aggregate no less favorable than those in effect at the Company or its applicable Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) provide annual rates of base salary or wages, as applicable, and annual target cash incentive compensation opportunities (excluding for the avoidance of doubt any equity-based compensation opportunities) that are no less favorable than as provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing.

(c)    New Plans. To the extent that a Company Plan or any comparable compensation or benefit arrangement is made available to any Continuing Employee at or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and entitlement to benefits where length of service is relevant (including for purposes of vacation accrual and severance entitlement, but excluding for the avoidance of doubt any equity, equity based incentive or long term compensation that may be awarded), except that such service need not be credited to the extent that it would result in duplication of coverage or benefits for the same period of service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that (i) each Continuing Employee will be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all employee benefit plans sponsored by the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company Plans) (such plans, the “New Plans”) to the extent that coverage pursuant to any such New Plan replaces coverage pursuant to a corresponding Company Plan in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, the “Old Plans”); (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing life insurance, medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision or disability benefits to any Continuing Employee, all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, and eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date that such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins be given full credit pursuant to such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan; and (iii) the accounts of such Continuing Employees pursuant to any New Plan that is a flexible spending plan be credited with any unused balance in the account of such Continuing Employee. The Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) credit any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to such Continuing Employee as of immediately following the Effective Time.

(d)    Labor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the terms and conditions of employment for any Continuing Employees covered by a Collective Bargaining Agreement shall be governed by the applicable agreement.

(e)    No Third Party Beneficiary Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Section 6.12 will not be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to terminate any Continuing Employee; (ii) subject to the limitations and requirements specifically set forth in this Section 6.12, require Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to continue any Employee Plan or

- 72 -

prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; or (iii) create any third party beneficiary rights in any Continuing Employee (or beneficiary or dependent thereof).

6.13.    Company ESPP. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company (or, as appropriate, the Board or a committee thereof) shall take all actions with respect to the Company ESPP, that are necessary to provide that: (i) with respect to the offering period in effect as of the date hereof (the “Current ESPP Offering Period”), no employee who is not a participant in a particular current offering under the Company ESPP as of the date hereof may become a participant in that offering under the Company ESPP and no participant may increase the percentage or amount of his or her payroll deduction election from that in effect on the date hereof for such Current ESPP Offering Period; (ii) the Current ESPP Offering Period shall terminate on the earlier of (A) the day immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) the day such Current ESPP Offering Period would otherwise end, and all participant contributions then credited to the Company ESPP shall be used to purchase Company Common Shares on such date in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP and all other participant rights under the Current ESPP Offering Period shall be terminated; and (iii) upon such termination, the Company ESPP shall be suspended and no new offering period shall be commenced under the Company ESPP prior to the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any restrictions on transfer of Company Common Shares in the Company ESPP, all Company Common Shares purchased under the Company ESPP shall be treated identically to all other Company Common Shares in the Merger and the payment of the Merger Consideration therefor in accordance with Section 2.6(a)(ii). The Company shall terminate the Company ESPP as of or immediately prior to the Effective Time.

6.14.    Obligations of Merger Sub. Parent hereby guarantees the due, prompt and faithful performance and discharge by, and compliance with, all of the obligations, covenants, terms, conditions and undertakings of Merger Sub under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, including any such obligations, covenants, terms, conditions and undertakings that are required to be performed, discharged or complied with following the Effective Time by the Surviving Company. Parent will take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub and, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Company to perform their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.8.    Remedies.

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

(b)    Specific Performance.

(i)    The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages and/or the payment of the Parent Termination Fee, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that: (A) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.3(f) and this Section 9.8, the Parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, 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 hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, subject to the terms of and the limitations set forth in this Agreement and the Equity Commitment Letters, the right of the Company to seek an award of specific performance to enforce Parent’s obligation to consummate the Merger in circumstances where Parent and Merger Sub are obligated to consummate the Merger and the Merger has not been consummated) in the Chosen Courts without proof of damages; and (B) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement.

(ii)    Notwithstanding Section 9.8(b)(i) or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, it is acknowledged and agreed that the right of the Company to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy in connection with enforcing Parent’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to consummate the Merger will be subject to the requirements that (A) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing (provided that such conditions would be satisfied as of such date)); (B) the Debt Financing (or, in the case Alternate Debt Financing has been obtained, such Alternate Debt Financing) has been funded in accordance with the terms set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters (or the New Debt Commitment Letters, if applicable) or would be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing; (C) Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3; and (D) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice to Parent that if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, then the Closing would occur. In no event will the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Parent’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded or to complete the Merger if the Debt Financing has not been funded (or will not be funded at the Closing).

(iii)    Subject to Section 8.3(f)(i), Section 8.3(f)(iii) and this Section 9.8, the Parties agree not to assert in any action for specific performance the defense of adequacy of a remedy at Law.

- 86 -

Each party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to assert (1) any objection which it may ever have to the laying of venue of any such litigation in any New York court, (2) any claim that any such proceeding brought in any New York court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (3) any claim that any New York court does not have jurisdiction with respect to such proceeding.

Each Party hereto waives and releases all such liabilities, obligations, claims and actions against any such Non-Party Affiliates.

9.13.    Disclosure Letter References. The Parties agree that any disclosure set forth in any particular section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter will be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, that are set forth in the corresponding Section or subsection of this Agreement; and (b) any other representations and warranties (or covenants, as

- 87 -

applicable) of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub that are set forth in this Agreement, but in the case of this clause (b), only to the extent that the relevance of such disclosure as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such other representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure.
