AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

     This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of October 7, 2007 (this “Agreement”), is by and among OneSource Services Inc., an international business company formed under the laws of Belize (“Target”), ABM Industries Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and OCo Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”).

RECITALS:

     A. The Boards of Directors of Target, Parent and Merger Sub have determined that it is in the best interests of their respective companies and their equity holders to complete the strategic business combination transaction provided for in this Agreement in which Target will, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, merge (the “Merger”) with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving company in the Merger (the “Surviving Company”).

     B. As an inducement and condition to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s entry into this Agreement, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Rivaz Overseas Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “Shareholder”), is entering into an agreement with Parent in the form of Exhibit A (the “Shareholder Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Shareholder has irrevocably agreed to vote or execute a written consent in favor of the Merger Agreement and the Merger.

     C. The parties desire to make or enter into, as the case may be, certain representations, warranties and covenants in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

     1.1 The Merger; Pre-Merger Actions. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Delaware Act”) and the Belize International Business Companies Act (the “IBCA”), at the Effective Time, Target will merge with and into Merger Sub. Merger Sub will be the surviving company in the Merger and will continue its limited liability company existence under the laws of the State of Delaware. As of the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Target under the laws of Belize will cease.

     1.2 Effective Time. The Merger will become effective as set forth in (a) the certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) that will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on the Closing Date and (b) the articles of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) that will be filed with the Registrar of International Business Companies of Belize (the “Registrar”) on the Closing Date. The term “Effective Time”

will be the date and time when the Merger becomes effective as set forth in the Certificate of Merger and the Articles of Merger.

     1.3 Effects of the Merger. At and after the Effective Time, the Merger will have the effects set forth in Section 18-209 of the Delaware Act and IBCA Section 87(3).

     1.4 Conversion of Target Ordinary Shares. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Target, Merger Sub or the holder of any of the following securities:

     (a) Each ordinary share of $0.10 per share of Target issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Target Ordinary Shares”), except for Target Ordinary Shares owned by Target or Parent and for Dissenting Shares, will be automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Aggregate Price divided by the number of Target Ordinary Shares outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (other than Target Ordinary Shares owned by Target or Parent) (such quotient, the “Merger Consideration”). For purposes hereof, the “Aggregate Price” means (i) $365 million, less (ii) the Contribution Amount, but only if Target elects the Spin-Off Election and consummates for Spin-Off (each as defined on Schedule 1.10) pursuant to Section 1.10 in accordance with the terms thereof, plus (iii) if applicable, the Price Increase payable pursuant to Section 9.1.

     (b) All of the Target Ordinary Shares converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article I will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and will cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate previously representing any such Target Ordinary Shares (each a “Certificate”) will thereafter represent only the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Target Ordinary Shares represented by such Certificate and (ii) the Merger Consideration. Certificates previously representing Target Ordinary Shares will be exchanged for such Merger Consideration upon the surrender of such Certificates in accordance with Section 2.2, without any interest thereon.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all Target Ordinary Shares that are owned by Target or Parent will be cancelled and will cease to exist and no stock of Parent or other consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

     1.5 Merger Sub Membership Interests. Each membership interest of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Membership Interests”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into one membership interest of the Surviving Company, and the Surviving Company will thereby become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

     1.6 Certificate of Formation of the Surviving Company. At the Effective Time, the certificate of formation of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Certificate”) will be the

certificate of formation of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law.

     1.7 Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Surviving Company. At the Effective Time, the limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub will be the limited liability company agreement (the “Merger Sub LLC Agreement”) of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law and the terms thereof.

     1.8 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Company. (a) The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the directors of the Surviving Company until the next annual meeting (or the earlier of their resignation or removal) and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

     (b) The officers of Target immediately prior the Effective Time will be the officers of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their resignation or removal and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

     1.9 Alternative Structures. At Parent’s election (provided that (a) such election does not adversely affect the amount of the Merger Consideration or the ability of Target to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) Target will not be deemed to have breached any of its representations or warranties herein if and to the extent such breach results from such election), the Merger may alternatively be structured so that Target is merged with and into Parent or any other direct or indirect Parent Subsidiary or so that Merger Sub (or any other direct or indirect Parent Subsidiary) is merged with and into Target. In the event of such an election, the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement in order to reflect such election.

     1.10 Spin-Off Election. At Target’s election (provided that (a) such election does not increase the amount of the Merger Consideration or affect the ability of Target to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or the timing thereof and (b) Parent and Merger Sub will not be deemed to have breached any of its representations and warranties herein if and to the extent such breach results from such election), Target may engage in the transactions set forth on Schedule 1.10, but only on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof (the “Spin-Off Election”).

ARTICLE II
EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

     2.1 Payment for Target Ordinary Shares. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent will deposit, or will cause to be deposited, with a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to each of Target and Parent (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Certificates, for payment in accordance with this Article II through the Paying Agent, immediately available funds in an aggregate amount equal to the Aggregate Price, less any amounts payable in accordance with this Article II to the holders of Target Ordinary Shares set forth on Schedule 2.1 (as may be amended from

time to time provided that the number of Direct Pay Shareholders will not exceed 25) (the “Direct Pay Shareholders” and the Target Ordinary Shares held by such Direct Pay Shareholders, the “Direct Pay Shares”). The funds deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 2.1 are referred to in this Agreement as the “Payment Fund”.

     2.2 Payment Procedures. (a) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent will mail to each holder of record of one or more Certificates (other than certificates evidencing Target Ordinary Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 1.4(c), Dissenting Shares or Direct Pay Shares) a letter of transmittal in customary form as reasonably agreed to by the parties (which will specify, among other things, that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for payment therefor. Upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Certificates for exchange and cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate or Certificates will be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which the Target Ordinary Shares represented by such Certificate or Certificates have been converted pursuant to this Agreement, and the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. At the Effective Time, upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Certificates representing Direct Pay Shares to Parent for exchange and cancellation, together with such transmittal documentation as may be reasonably requested by Parent, the applicable Direct Pay Shareholder will be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which the Direct Pay Shares represented by such Certificate or Certificates have been converted pursuant to this Agreement by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the payment instructions set forth opposite such Direct Pay Shareholder’s name on Schedule 2.1, and Parent will cause such Certificate or Certificates so surrendered to forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on the Merger Consideration payable to holders of Certificates.

     (b) In the event of a transfer of ownership of Target Ordinary Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of Target, such payment may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Target Ordinary Shares is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents reasonably requested by Parent to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence to establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that any transfer Tax has been paid or is not payable.

     (c) After the Effective Time, there will be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Target or the Surviving Company of the Target Ordinary Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than to settle transfers of Target Ordinary Shares that occurred prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Parent or the Surviving Company, they will be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II, subject to applicable law, in the case of Dissenting Shares. After the Effective Time, there will be no transfers of the depositary interests representing the Target Ordinary Shares created pursuant to a deed poll by Capita IRG Trustees Limited, dated February 15, 2006. At the Effective

Time, the depositary interests will be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration to which Capita IRG Trustees Limited becomes entitled pursuant to this Article II in respect of the Target Ordinary Shares which such depositary interests represent, subject to applicable law, in the case of Dissenting Shares.

     (d) Based on the information available to it as of the date hereof, each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it does not presently anticipate that the Surviving Company, Parent or the Paying Agent will be required to deduct or withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Target Ordinary Shares any amounts under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any such withholdings are required, each of the Surviving Company, Parent and the Paying Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Target Ordinary Shares such amounts as are required (but only to the extent required) to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Company, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Target Ordinary Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Company, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

     (e) Thirty days following the Effective Time, the Paying Agent will provide the Surviving Company (with a copy to the current company secretary of Target of the address for Target set forth in Section 9.4) with a list of holders of record of Target Ordinary Shares as of the Effective Time showing which such holders have properly surrendered Certificates for payment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2 and which such holders have not so surrendered Certificates. The Surviving Company will thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with such individual in contacting those holders that have not so surrendered their Certificates and provide them with further instructions on how to so surrender such Certificates. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the former shareholders of Target as of the first anniversary of the Effective Time will be paid to Parent and the Surviving Company. Any former shareholders of Target who have not theretofore complied with this Article II will thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Company for payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of each Target Ordinary Share, as the case may be, that such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, Target, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company, the Paying Agent or any other person will be liable to any former holder of Target Ordinary Shares for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

     (f) In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Parent may determine is

reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate an amount equal to the Merger Consideration into which the Target Ordinary Shares represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.

     (g) Any profit or loss or interest or other income resulting from any investments of the Payment Fund will be for the account of Parent and be paid to Parent on the earlier of the first anniversary of the Effective Time or the full payment of the Payment Fund.

     2.3 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under Section 91 of the IBCA, any Target Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by a shareholder who has demanded properly in writing to elect to dissent from the Merger in accordance with Section 91 of the IBCA (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Merger Consideration. Such shareholders will be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of the Dissenting Shares held by them in accordance with the provisions of such Section 91, except that all Dissenting Shares held by shareholders who have failed to perfect or who effectively have withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Shares under such Section 91 will thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, in the manner provided in Section 1.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.3, if the Merger is rescinded or abandoned, then the right of any shareholder to be paid the fair value of such shareholder’s Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 91 of the IBCA will cease. Target may not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF TARGET

     Except as expressly disclosed in (x) in Target’s AIM admission document dated February 6, 2006 or any annual, half-yearly or quarterly report filed or notified or as publicly announced by Target by the delivery of an announcement to a Regulatory Information Service (being any of the services set out in Appendix 3 of the Listing Rules of the United Kingdom Listing Authority) (the “Target Reports”) since February 6, 2006 and prior to the Measurement Date, but excluding any risk factor or similar general disclosure contained in any such Target Report, or (y) the disclosure schedule (the “Target Disclosure Schedule”) delivered by Target to Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement (which schedule sets forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular Section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information in the Target Disclosure Schedule relates; provided, however, that (i) any information set forth in one section of the Target Disclosure Schedule will be deemed to apply to each other Section or subsection of this Agreement (other than Sections of this Agreement that make specific reference to the Target Disclosure Schedule) to which its relevance is

reasonably apparent and (ii) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the inclusion of an item in such schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty will not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would have a Target Material Adverse Effect), Target represents and warrants to Parent as follows:

     3.1 Corporate Organization. (a) Target is an international business company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Belize. Target has the corporate power and authority to own or lease all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, and is duly licensed or qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties and assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not have a Target Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, the term “Target Material Adverse Effect” means any event, change, occurrence, condition or effect that has had or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate with all similar events, a material adverse effect on (i) the business, results of operations or financial condition of Target and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (provided, that with respect to this clause (i), “Target Material Adverse Effect” will not be deemed to include effects to the extent resulting from (A) changes, after the date hereof, in generally accepted accounting principles or regulatory requirements applicable to outsourced facilities services companies and their holding companies generally, (B) changes, after the date hereof, in laws, rules or regulations of general applicability or interpretations thereof by any court, administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality (each a “Governmental Entity”), (C) changes, after the date hereof, in general economic or market conditions affecting outsourced facilities services companies or their holding companies generally, (D) actions contemplated by the parties in connection with this Agreement, (E) the announcement or performance of this Agreement, or (F) a change in the market price or trading volume of the Target Ordinary Shares (provided that a change in the market price or trading volume of the Target Ordinary Shares will not be precluded from being used, as applicable, as evidence that some other effect, circumstance or change has had a Target Material Adverse Effect), except that the exclusions set forth in clause A, B or C will only be effective if Target and its Subsidiaries are not disproportionately impacted in any material respect by such events when compared to other outsourced facilities services companies or their holding companies generally) or (ii) Target’s ability to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the timing thereof.

     (b) True and complete copies of the Memorandum of Association of Target (the “Target Memorandum”) and the Articles of Association of Target (the “Target Articles”), as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, have previously been made available to Parent.

     (c) Each of Target’s Subsidiaries (i) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) is duly qualified to do business and in good standing in all jurisdictions (whether federal, state, local or foreign) where its

ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified, and (iii) has all requisite corporate or other entity power and authority to own or lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, except in each of clause (i) to (iii) above as would not have a Target Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, the word “Subsidiary” when used with respect to either party, means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other organization, whether incorporated or unincorporated, that is consolidated with such party for financial reporting purposes under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and the terms “Target Subsidiary” and “Parent Subsidiary” will mean any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Target or Parent, respectively, and, in the case of Parent, will include Merger Sub prior to the Effective Time and the Surviving Company after the Effective Time.

     (d) Section 3.1(d) of the Target Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of all Target Subsidiaries.

     3.2 Capitalization. (a) The authorized capital stock of Target consists of 50,000,000 Target Ordinary Shares, of which, as of the close of business in London, England on the second business day prior to the date hereof (the “Measurement Date”), 3,764,365 shares were issued and outstanding. As of the Measurement Date, no more than 26,243 Target Ordinary Shares were held in Target’s treasury. As of the date of this Agreement, no Target Ordinary Shares were reserved for issuance. All of the issued and outstanding Target Ordinary Shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof. Target does not have and is not bound by any (i) equity-based compensation plans, (ii) outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments or agreements of any character calling for the purchase or issuance of any Target Ordinary Shares or any other equity securities of Target or any securities representing the right to purchase or otherwise receive any Target Ordinary Shares, or (iii) obligation of any kind, contingent or accrued, to issue Target Ordinary Shares or benefits measured by the value of a number of Target Ordinary Shares (including any share appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units, deferred stock units or dividend equivalents). Target has no debt or other obligations that provide any person any rights to vote or consent as to any matter on which Target’s shareholders are entitled to vote, whether on an as-converted basis or otherwise.

     (b) All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity ownership interests of each “significant subsidiary” (as such term is defined under Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)) of Target are owned by Target, directly or indirectly, free and clear of any material liens, pledges, charges and security interests and similar encumbrances (“Liens”), and all of such shares or equity ownership interests are duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. No such significant subsidiary has or is bound by any outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments or agreements of any character calling for the purchase or issuance of any shares of capital stock or any other equity security of such subsidiary or any securities

representing the right to purchase or otherwise receive any shares of capital stock or any other equity security of such subsidiary.

     3.3 Authority; No Violation. (a) Target has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to complete the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly approved by the Board of Directors of Target (the “Target Board”). The Target Board has determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are fair to and in the best interests of Target and its shareholders, and this Agreement and the transactions contemplated, including the Merger, have been submitted to, and adopted by written consent by, Target’s shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding Target Ordinary Shares entitled to approve such matter by written consent, acting together as a single class (in the form attached as Exhibit B, the “Target Shareholder Approval”) and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Target are necessary to approve this Agreement or to complete the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Target and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub) constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Target, enforceable against Target in accordance with its terms (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies) (the “Enforceability Exceptions”).

     (b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Target nor the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by Target or any other party thereto with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, will (i) violate any provision of the Target Memorandum or the Target Articles or (ii) assuming that the consents, approvals and filings referred to in Section 3.4 are duly obtained and/or made, (A) violate any order, injunction or decree issued by any court or agency of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition (an “Injunction”) or any statute, code, ordinance, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree applicable to Target, any of the Target Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets or (B) violate, conflict with, result in a breach of any provision of or the loss of any benefit under, constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, result in the termination of or a right of termination or cancellation under, accelerate the performance required by, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the respective properties or assets of Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries is a party, or by which they or any of their respective properties or assets may be bound except for such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults that would not have a Target Material Adverse Effect.

     3.4 Consents and Approvals. Except for (a) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to the Delaware Act, (b) the filing of the Articles of Merger with the Registrar pursuant to the IBCA, (c) any notices or filings under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976,

as amended (the “HSR Act”), (d) the Target Shareholder Approval (which has previously been obtained and remains in full force and effect), and (e) the consents or approvals listed in Section 3.4 of the Target Disclosure Schedule, no consents or approvals of, or filings or registrations with, any Governmental Entity are necessary on the part of Target in connection with (i) the execution and delivery by Target of this Agreement on (ii) the completion by Target of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     3.5 Reports. Target and each of the Target Subsidiaries have timely filed all reports, registrations, announcements, notifications and statements, together with any amendments required to be made with respect thereto, that they were required to file since February 6, 2006 with (a) the SEC, and (b) the London Stock Exchange plc (collectively, “Regulatory Agencies”) and have paid all fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith, except where the failure to file such report, registration or statement or to pay such fees and assessments would not have a Target Material Adverse Effect.

Target will comply with the provisions of Section 91 of the IBCA relating to rights of dissenters as a result of the Merger or the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. The parties will promptly provide copies to and consult with each other and prepare written responses with respect to any exercise of dissenters’ rights by Target’s shareholders.

     (b) Without limiting Section 6.4, the parties will cooperate with each other to promptly prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, and will use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities that are necessary to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger) and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all such Governmental Entities. Target and Parent will have the right to review in advance, and, to the extent practicable, each will consult the other on, in each case, subject to applicable law relating to the exchange of information, all the information relating to Target or Parent, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties will act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. The parties will consult with each other with respect to

obtaining all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities necessary or advisable to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and each party will keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     (c) Each of Parent and Target will, upon request, furnish to the other all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, Target or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) Upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable law relating to the exchange of information, Target will, and will cause each of the Target Subsidiaries to, afford to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives of Parent who need to know such information for the purposes of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, reasonable access, during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time (such access to be granted in such a way so as to minimize the disruption of each party’s business), to its properties, books, contracts, commitments and records to the extent set forth on Schedule 6.2(a), and, during such period, Target will, and will cause the Target Subsidiaries to, make available to Parent (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of applicable securities laws or foreign, federal or state laws applicable to such party (other than reports or documents that such party is not permitted to disclose under applicable law) and (ii) such other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as Parent may reasonably request in accordance with Schedule 6.2(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Target nor any of the Target Subsidiaries will be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of Target or the Target Subsidiaries or contravene any law, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement or entered into after the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business. The parties will use their reasonable best efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

     6.3 Approvals. Target will immediately inform Parent to the extent it becomes aware at any time of any circumstances that could result in the Target Shareholder Approval being declared or held unenforceable or otherwise becoming ineffective and, if such Target Shareholder Approval becomes ineffective, the Target Board will use its reasonable best efforts to again obtain from its shareholders the Target Shareholder Approval.

     6.4 Legal Conditions to Merger. (a) Each of Parent and Target will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, use their best efforts (i) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to comply promptly with all legal requirements that may be imposed on such party or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Merger and to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable after the date hereof and (ii) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other party to obtain) any consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity and any other third party that is required to be obtained by Target or Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including pursuant to the HSR Act), including all steps necessary to promptly identify any impediments to complying with all legal requirements or to obtaining such consents, authorizations, orders, approvals, or exemptions. Parent and Target will cooperate with one another and with Governmental Entities and will use their respective best efforts to procure the prompt cooperation of their respective professional advisors, in each case to resolve or settle any issues as early as possible and with a view to the Termination Date and to obtain the consent, authorization, order, approval or exemption of any Governmental Entity in order to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b), including, if necessary, by agreeing to (i) sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of assets of Parent, Target or any of their Subsidiaries or conduct their businesses in a specified manner or (ii) restrict or otherwise limit the ability of Parent, Target or any of their Subsidiaries to conduct its business in any manner, including limiting or prohibiting any future business acquisition or combination transaction.

     (b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in Sections 6.1 or 6.4(a), if any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any applicable law or legal obligation or requirement, or if any statute, rule, regulation or Injunction is enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Entity that would make the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby illegal or would otherwise prohibit or materially impair or materially delay the completion of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, each of Target and Parent will cooperate in all respects with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any judgment, Injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts completion of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to have such statute, rule, regulation or Injunction repealed, rescinded or made inapplicable so as to permit completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6.4(b) will limit either Target’s or Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII so long as such party has up to the date of termination complied with its obligations under this Section 6.4.

     (c) Each party hereto and its Board of Directors will, if any Takeover Statute becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated hereby, take all action reasonably necessary to ensure that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be completed as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute on this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

     6.5 Financing. Target will provide, and cause the Target Subsidiaries to provide, and will use reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of any financing by Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.6 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. (a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to exculpation and indemnification for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current and former directors or officers of Target or any Target Subsidiary as provided in the Target Memorandum or Target Articles (or any similar constituent document of any Target Subsidiary) will survive the Merger and continue in effect in accordance with their terms for a period of six years following the Closing Date. From and after the Effective Time, Parent will indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each individual who is now, or becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries or who is serving at the request of the Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another person (the “Target Indemnified Parties”) against any losses, claims, damages,

liabilities, costs, expenses (including reimbursement for reasonable fees and expenses incurred in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Target Indemnified Party), judgments, fines and, subject to approval by Parent, amounts paid in settlement in connection with any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation to which such Target Indemnified Party is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that such individual is or was a director or officer of Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether asserted or arising before or after the Effective Time.

     (b) Parent will cause to be maintained in effect for a period of six years from the Effective Time the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained at the Effective Time by Target (the “Target D&O Policy”) (provided, however, that Parent may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage and amounts and may cause coverage to be extended under the Target D&O Policy by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy, in each case containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous than the Target D&O Policy) with respect to claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, that in no event will Parent be required to expend in the aggregate an amount in excess of 300% of the annual aggregate premiums currently paid by Target for such insurance (the “Maximum Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, Parent will cause to be maintained the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

     (c) The provisions of this Section 6.6 will survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Target Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives.

     6.7 Advice of Changes. Each of Parent and Target will promptly advise the other of any change or event (a) having a Parent Material Adverse Effect or a Target Material Adverse Effect, as the case may be, or (b) that it believes results or would be reasonably expected to result in (i) a failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) or (b) or 7.3(a) or (b) or (ii) a Belize Tax liability arising as a result of the Merger or the Spin-Off; provided, however, that (A) no such notification will affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement and (B) a failure to comply with this Section 6.7 will not constitute the failure of any condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied unless the underlying Parent Material Adverse Effect or Target Material Adverse Effect, as applicable, or breach would independently result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied.

     6.8 No Solicitation. None of Target, the Target Subsidiaries or any officer, director, employee, agent or representative (including any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other retained representative) of Target or any the Target Subsidiaries will directly or indirectly solicit, initiate or encourage or facilitate

Target will notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information relating to Target or any of the Target Subsidiaries or for access to the properties, books or records of Target or the Board of Directors of any Target Subsidiary by any person or entity that informs the Target Board or any Target Subsidiary that it is considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal. Target and the Target Subsidiaries will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations with any persons (other than Parent) conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing, and will use reasonable best efforts to cause all persons other than Parent who have been furnished confidential information regarding Target in connection with the solicitation of or discussions regarding an Acquisition Proposal within the 12 months prior to the date hereof promptly to return or destroy such information. Target agrees not to, and to cause the Target Subsidiaries not to, release any third party from the confidentiality and standstill provisions of any agreement to which Target or the Target Subsidiaries is or may become a party, and will immediately take all steps necessary to terminate any approval that may have been heretofore given under any such provisions authorizing any person to make an Acquisition Proposal.

Prior to the Closing, Target will deliver to Parent a signed IRS Form 8832, Entity Classification Election, with respect to the entities set forth on Schedule 6.9 (the “Electing Entities”), consenting to an election by each of such Electing Entities to be disregarded as an entity separate from its sole owner effective on the day prior to the Effective Time.

     (b) by either the Target Board or the Parent Board if any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction has issued a final and nonappealable order permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that no party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if its breach of its obligations under this Agreement proximately contributed to the occurrence of such order;

     (d) by the Parent Board if there has been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of Target, which breach, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or (b) and which is not cured within 45 days following written notice to Target or by its nature or timing cannot be cured by the Termination Date; or

     9.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement), together with the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, other than the Confidentiality Agreement.

to this Agreement will be brought by it or any of its affiliates except in such court), and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such claim, suit, action or other proceeding and irrevocably and unconditionally waive the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such claim, suit, action or other proceeding. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail to such person’s respective address set forth in Section 9.4 will be effective service of process for any claim, action, suit or other proceeding in Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence.

     9.11 Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement will be assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of Target, in the case of Parent or Merger Sub, or Parent, in the case of Target. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 6.6, this Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) is not intended to and does not confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies under this Agreement.

     9.12 Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge and agree that any breach of the terms of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each will be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting bond.

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is declared invalid, illegal or unenforceable, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the maximum extent possible.

     9.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.
