THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 5, 2009, by and among: IXYS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”); ZANZIBAR ACQUISITION, INC., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); and ZILOG, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub into the Company (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the DGCL. Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist, and the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

B. The respective boards of directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company deem it advisable and in the best interests of each corporation and their respective stockholders that Parent acquire the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

C. In order to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement and to cause the Merger to be consummated certain stockholders of the Company are executing voting agreements in favor of Parent concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement (the “Voting Agreements”).

AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Article 1

DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 Merger of Merger Sub into the Company. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

1.2 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. The consummation of the Contemplated Transactions (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, at 10:00 a.m. (local time) as soon as practicable (and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 (other than the conditions set forth in Sections 6.4 and 7.4, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions). The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.” A certificate of merger satisfying the applicable requirements of the DGCL shall be duly executed by the

Company in connection with the Closing and, concurrently with or as soon as practicable following the Closing, shall be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing of such certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be specified in such certificate of merger with the consent of Parent (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.

(a) The Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated at the Effective Time to conform to Exhibit B.

(b) The Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to conform to the Bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time shall be the respective individuals who are directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.5 Conversion of Shares.

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

(i) any shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(ii) any shares of Company Common Stock held by Parent, Merger Sub or any other wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(iii) except as provided in clauses “(i)” and “(ii)” above and subject to Section 1.5(b), each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive $3.5858 (the “Merger Consideration”); and

(iv) each share of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) If, during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending at the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of

shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted.

(c)

(i) As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action required on the part of the holders thereof, each option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Option”) outstanding under any stock option or equity compensation plan or agreement (the “Company Stock Plans”) that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, shall be deemed to be one hundred percent (100%) vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time and shall be canceled and extinguished, and Parent shall, or shall cause Surviving Corporation to, promptly following the Effective Time, pay to the holders of such Company Options, an amount in respect thereof equal to the product of (A) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price of each such Company Option and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject thereto (such payment, if any, to be net of applicable Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 1.7(d)).

(ii) The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to effectuate the foregoing, including, but not limited to, sending out the requisite notices and obtaining all consents necessary to cash out and cancel all Company Options necessary to ensure that, after the Effective Time, no person shall have any right under the Company Stock Plans, except as set forth herein.

(d) As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action or payment being required on the part of the holders thereof, each Company Restricted Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.7.

1.6 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock, including any Company Restricted Shares, outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company Stock Certificate”) is presented to the Exchange Agent (as defined in Section 1.7) or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.7.

1.7 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Prior to the mailing of the Proxy Statement, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging Company Stock Certificates for the Merger Consideration. Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and, if necessary, shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, deposit with the Exchange Agent cash sufficient to make the payments required pursuant to Section 1.5(a). The cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time), the Exchange Agent will mail to the Persons who were record holders of Company Stock Certificates immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Parent may reasonably specify (including a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates in exchange for Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent: (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the cash payment that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.5(a) (provided that if the aggregate amount of such payment would require the payment of a fraction of a cent, the amount to be paid shall be rounded up to the next whole cent); and (B) the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7(b), each Company Stock Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive a payment in cash as contemplated by Section 1.5. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the delivery of any Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Company Stock Certificate, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Parent may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(c) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Stock Certificates as of the date one (1) year after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Stock Certificates who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.7 shall thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for cash sufficient to make the payments required pursuant to Section 1.5(a).

(d) Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of any Company Stock Certificate or Company Option such amounts as Parent reasonably determines in good faith are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld,

such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(e) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of any Company Stock Certificate or to any other Person with respect to any cash amounts, delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Legal Requirement.

(f) All transfer, stamp, documentary and similar Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions shall be the responsibility of the holders of Company Stock Certificates, unless otherwise required by any applicable Legal Requirement.

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

1.9 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding Sections 1.5 and 1.6, any shares of Company Common Stock and any Company Restricted Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has demanded appraisal for such shares in accordance with the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses the right to appraisal. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses the right to appraisal, such Dissenting Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into a right to receive the Merger Consideration. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Dissenting Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands.

The Company either has or shall promptly request each Person that has executed a confidentiality or similar agreement in connection with its consideration of a possible Acquisition Transaction or equity investment in the Company in the last twelve (12) months prior to the date of this Agreement to return to the Company all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of any of the Acquired Corporations or destroy such confidential information in each case to the extent such third-party is required to do so under the terms of such confidentiality agreement.

5.2 Company Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) The Company shall take all action necessary under all applicable Legal Requirements and the Company’s bylaws to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of Company Common Stock to vote on the adoption and approval of this Agreement (the “Company Stockholders’ Meeting”). The Company Stockholders’ Meeting shall be held (on a date selected by the Company in consultation with Parent) as promptly as reasonably practicable following clearance of the Proxy Statement by the SEC. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Company Stockholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company may adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders’ Meeting after consultation with Parent to the extent necessary to ensure that any necessary supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to its stockholders in advance of a vote on this Agreement or, if as of the time for which the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting.

(b) Subject to Section 5.2(c): (i) the Proxy Statement shall include a statement to the effect that the board of directors of the Company recommends that the Company’s

stockholders vote to adopt and approve this Agreement at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting (the recommendation of the Company’s board of directors that the Company’s stockholders vote to adopt and approve this Agreement being referred to as the “Company Board Recommendation”); and (ii) the Company Board Recommendation shall not be withdrawn, modified or changed in a manner adverse to Parent (an “Adverse Recommendation Change”), and no resolution by the board of directors of the Company or any committee thereof to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change shall be adopted or proposed.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.2(b), at any time prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Required Stockholder Vote, (i) an Adverse Recommendation Change may be effected if (A) there shall occur or arise after the date of this Agreement a material development or a material change in circumstance that relates to the Acquired Corporations but does not relate to an Acquisition Proposal (an “Intervening Event”), (B) neither the board of directors of the Company nor the executive officers of the Company had knowledge, as of the date of this Agreement, that there was a reasonable possibility that such Intervening Event would occur or arise after the date of this Agreement, and (C) the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that in light of such circumstances, the board of directors of the Company must effect an Adverse Recommendation Change in order for the board of directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; and (ii) an Adverse Recommendation Change may be effected or the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) if (A) any third party has made to the Company (and not withdrawn) a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that the Company board of directors has reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and of a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, constitutes a Superior Offer, (B) neither the Company nor any Representative of the Acquired Corporations has materially breached Section 4.3 or this Section 5.2, and (C) the board of directors of the Company concludes in good faith, after having considered the advice of its outside legal counsel, that in light of such circumstances, the board of directors of the Company must effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) in order for the board of directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; provided, however, that any such action referred to in this clause (ii) may only be taken at a time that is (y) after the fourth (4th) Business Day following delivery to Parent of a written notice from the Company that the board of directors of the Company intends to take such action if such Acquisition Proposal remains a Superior Offer (the “Subsequent Determination Notice”), which notice will specify the material terms of the applicable Superior Offer and identify the Person making such Superior Offer (it being understood and agreed that any material amendment to such Superior Offer, including the financial terms of such Superior Offer, shall require the delivery of a new Subsequent Determination Notice and the commencement of an additional three (3) day waiting period), and (z) at the end of any such period referred to in clause (y), the Company board of directors determines in good faith, after considering all amendments or revisions irrevocably committed to by Parent and after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that such Superior Offer remains a Superior Offer. During any period referred to in clause (y) of the preceding sentence, Parent shall be entitled to deliver to Company one or more counterproposals to such Acquisition Proposal, and Company shall give Parent the opportunity to meet with the Company and its Representatives,

and at Parent’s request, shall negotiate in good faith regarding the terms of any possible revisions to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company’s board of directors from complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the 1934 Act or from making any required disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that such action is necessary for such board of directors to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements; provided, however, that any statement or disclosure made by or on behalf of the Company board of directors (other than a “stop, look and listen communication” of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, and within the time period contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f)(3)) shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless it is accompanied by a statement of the Company board of directors expressly reaffirming the Company Board Recommendation in connection with such statement or disclosure.

5.3 Regulatory Approvals.

(a) Each party shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to file or otherwise submit, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such party with or otherwise submitted by such party to any Governmental Body with respect to the Merger and the other Contemplated Transactions, and to submit promptly any additional information requested by any such Governmental Body.

Each party shall provide the other with a copy of each proposed filing with or other submission to any Governmental Body relating to any of the Contemplated Transactions, and shall give the other party a reasonable time prior to making such filing or other submission in which to review and comment on such proposed filing or other submission. Each party shall promptly deliver to the other a copy of each such filing or other submission made, each notice given and each Consent obtained during the Pre-Closing Period.

5.4 Company Stock Plans and ESPP.

(a) At the Effective Time, Parent may, at its election, assume either or both of the 2002 Plan or the 2004 Plan.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions that may be necessary to: (i) cause the exercise (as of the last Business Day prior to the Closing Date) of each outstanding purchase right under the ESPP, and make any pro-rata adjustments that may be necessary to reflect the shortened offering period but otherwise cause such shortened offering period to be treated as a fully effective and completed offering period for all purposes under the ESPP; and (ii) provide that no further offering period or purchase period shall commence under the ESPP after the Effective Time; provided, however, that such exercise of outstanding purchase rights, and the cessation of further offering and purchase periods, shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger. On the last Business Day prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall apply the funds credited as of such date under the ESPP within each participant’s payroll withholding account to the purchase of whole shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the ESPP. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time (and subject to the consummation of the Merger), the Company shall terminate the ESPP.

5.5 Employee Benefits.

(a) Parent agrees that, subject to any transition period of not more than 60 days and subject to any applicable plan provisions, contractual requirements or Legal Requirements, all employees of the Acquired Corporations who continue employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”) shall be eligible to participate in Parent’s benefit plans, to substantially the same extent as similarly situated employees of Parent. Nothing in this Section 5.5(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any Company Associate to employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation, and the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment (except as otherwise required to comply with applicable Legal Requirements.) Except for Indemnified Persons (as defined in Section 5.6(a)) to the extent of their respective rights pursuant to Section 5.6, no Company Associate or Continuing Employee shall be deemed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

(c) Unless otherwise directed by Parent, prior to the Closing the Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective, any Company Benefit Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”); as soon as practicable following the termination date of such Company 401(k) Plan, to the extent permitted pursuant to Parent’s 401(k) plan, Parent shall permit each Continuing Employee who was eligible to participate in the Company 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the termination date elect to roll over his or her account balance from such terminated Company 401(k) Plan to the Parent 401(k) plan. If the Company (or an Acquired Corporation or Company Affiliate) is required to terminate any Company 401(k) Plan, then the Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Closing Date written evidence of the adoption by the board of directors of the Company (or of the applicable Acquired Corporation or Company Affiliate) of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to the prior review and approval of Parent).

(d) For the twelve (12) months following the Closing, except as otherwise agreed in writing between Parent and a Company employee, Parent will honor and will cause to be honored, in accordance with its terms, each existing employment, change in control, severance, or other termination protection plan (including the Severance Plan and the Key Employee Plan) between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any officer or employee.

5.6 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) All rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities existing in favor of each individual who is a current or former officer or director of the Acquired Corporations (each such individual, an “Indemnified Person”) for his acts and omissions as a director or officer of the Company occurring prior to the Effective Time, as provided in the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) or as provided in any Indemnification

Contract between the Company and such Indemnified Person (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) shall be assumed by Parent and the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time, and shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms (to the fullest extent such rights to indemnification are available under and are consistent with Delaware law) for a period of six (6) years from the date on which the Merger becomes effective, and the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, comply with and honor the foregoing obligations.

(b) Prior to the Effective time, the Company shall purchase a director and officer “tail” policy in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each Indemnified Person currently covered by the Company’s officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy for six (6) years after the Effective Time on terms with respect to coverage and amount at least as, and not materially more, favorable than those of such policy in effect on the date hereof, and with an aggregate premium not to exceed two hundred twenty-five percent (225%) of the amount per annum the Company paid in respect of its last annual policy period.

(c) If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.6.

(d) This Section 5.6 is for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person and their respective heirs and legal representatives. The rights and remedies provided for in this Section 5.6 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Person is entitled, whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise.

5.7 Notification. The Company will give prompt written notice to Parent of any development occurring after the date of this Agreement, or any item about which the Company did not have Knowledge on the date of this Agreement, which causes or reasonably would be expected to cause the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.2 not to be satisfied. Parent will give prompt written notice to the Company of any development occurring after the date of this Agreement, or any item about which Parent did not have Knowledge on the date of this Agreement, which causes or reasonably would be expected to cause the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 or 7.2 not to be satisfied. No disclosure by any party pursuant to this Section 5.7 will be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedule or to prevent or cure any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant.

5.8 Disclosure. Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release, making any other public statement, or scheduling any press conference or conference call with investors or analysts, with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements or any listing agreement with or rule of any national securities exchange or association, shall not issue any such press release, make any such other public statement, or schedule any such press conference or conference call before such consultation.

5.9 Resignation of Officers and Directors. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Parent at or prior to the Effective Time the resignation of each officer and director of each of the Acquired Corporations; provided, that such resignation shall not affect any change of control rights or other benefits to which such officers or directors may be entitled to and shall not change such officers’ or directors’ status, if applicable, as an employee of the Acquired Corporations.

5.10 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take such reasonable steps as are required to cause the disposition of Company Common Stock and Company Options in connection with the Merger by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.
