(d) Immediately following acceptance of the Certificate of Merger by the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware, Parent shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company all funds necessary for the Surviving Corporation to make payment of the Option Consideration payable with respect to Exercisable In-The-Money Options cancelled pursuant to Section 2.09.

(e) Concurrently with the Closing, unless otherwise paid by the Company or its Subsidiaries at or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall or shall cause to be delivered, all amounts necessary to fully discharge all (i) outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which sums are necessary to obtain title to the property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries free and clear of all Encumbrances, and (ii) Transaction Expenses. Any amounts required to be paid in accordance with Section 2.11(e)(i) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds by Parent, on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, to such lenders and other creditors in accordance with the payoff letters provided by such lenders and creditors in accordance with Section 5.01(b). Any amounts required to be paid in accordance with Section 2.11(e)(ii) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds by Parent, on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, to the Persons designated in writing in accordance with Section 5.01(h); provided, however, that any Transaction Expenses of the type specified in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) of the definition of Transaction Expenses will not be discharged at Closing but rather will remain obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries from and after Closing until due and payable by the Company or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, from and after Closing; and, provided, further that, with respect to all such amounts specified in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) of the definition of Transaction Expenses, (A) Parent shall set aside the full amount otherwise required to fully discharge such Transaction Expenses at Closing, and (B) such amounts shall be considered a Required Closing Payment, and a negative Adjustment to Purchase Price.

SECTION 2.12. Close of Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, no shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding, and the holders of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided herein or by Applicable Law. All consideration paid upon the surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Article II, shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, that evidenced ownership of either shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, except as otherwise provided for herein or by Applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, are presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II, except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law

SECTION 2.13. Exchange Fund.

(a) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains undistributed to the Former Holders for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation or its designee, and any Former Holders who have not executed and delivered the documentation required pursuant to Section 2.11 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (and only as a general creditor thereof with respect to the payment of any Merger Consideration) for payment of their portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.08, without any interest thereon and subject to any withholding Taxes required by Applicable Law, upon due surrender of their Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, representing shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock.

(b) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by Former Holders as of a date that is immediately prior to such time as 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 Parent (or at Parent’s election, the Surviving Corporation) free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(c) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest all cash included in the Exchange Fund as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that any investment of such cash shall be limited to direct, short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Surviving Corporation pursuant to Section 2.13(a).

(d) Withholding Rights. The Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled, and shall be entitled to direct the Paying Agent, to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of any other Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, and shall be paid, by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or Paying Agent, as applicable, to the appropriate Governmental Authority.

SECTION 2.14. Appraisal. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is held by any holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger, consented thereto in writing or executed an enforceable waiver of appraisal rights to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Appraisal Statute”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.08, but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of the Appraisal Statute. Any shares of Common Stock for which appraisal rights have been properly exercised, and not subsequently withdrawn, lost or failed to be perfected, are referred to in this Agreement as the “Appraisal Shares.” At the Effective Time, the Appraisal Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Appraisal Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto (except the right to receive the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of the Appraisal Statute) including the right to vote his, her or its shares of Common Stock for any purpose or to receive payment of dividends or other distribution on his, her or its shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under the Appraisal Statute, or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by the Appraisal Statute, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Appraisal Shares under the Appraisal Statute shall cease in which case such share shall thereupon be deemed, as of the Effective Time, to have been cancelled and retired and to have ceased to exist and been converted into the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.11, without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by Applicable Law, in accordance with this Agreement, the Common Per Share Merger Consideration. The Company shall serve prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of the Company’s Common Stock, withdrawals of such demands and any other related instruments received by, or occurrences known to, the Company. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands but shall not settle any such demands without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). After the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.

SECTION 2.15. Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a statement, certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer as the Company’s best good faith estimate, which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Parent, setting forth in reasonable detail and accompanied by reasonably detailed back-up documentation, of the Closing Working Capital. In determining Closing Working Capital, the Company will consider in good faith any objections or disputes that Parent may have with the proposed calculation delivered in accordance with the preceding sentence. The Company and Parent will work in good faith to resolve any disputed items in connection with the proposed calculation of Closing Working Capital. The calculation of Closing Working Capital will not be deemed final, conclusive and binding on the parties hereto, no Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be made, and the Closing shall not occur, until such time as the Company and Parent agree in good faith on the calculation of Closing Working Capital.

(b) At the Closing, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows: (i) the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount, if any, by which the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Upper Target, or (ii) the Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the Lower Target exceeds the Closing Working Capital. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Closing Working Capital is above the Lower Target and below the Upper Target, no adjustment shall be made in respect of this Section 2.15(b). Any adjustment to Purchase Price made in accordance with this Section 2.15(b) shall be referred to as the “Closing Working Capital Adjustment”.

SECTION 2.16. Consideration Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount paid by Parent hereunder exceed $45,000,000, plus the amount of any positive Closing Working Capital Adjustment and any amounts received as contemplated by clause (ii) of the definition of “Adjustments,” and subject to appropriate adjustments for any Appraisal Shares.

Such notice shall request that such Person promptly return or destroy (and confirm compliance therewith), and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such Person (and its agents or advisors) to promptly return or destroy, all non-public information in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Business that was furnished by or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, and shall not authorize or permit its and its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers, employees, advisors, investment bankers, lawyers or other consultants and advisors (with respect to any Person, the foregoing Persons are referred to herein as such Person’s “Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or take any action to facilitate or encourage the submission of any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or may reasonably be likely to lead to, any Takeover Proposal, (ii) enter into or conduct or engage in any discussions or negotiations with, or provide or disclose any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, afford access to the Business, properties, assets, personnel, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage any effort by, any Person that the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives has reason to believe is considering or seeking to make, or has made, or in any way in furtherance of, any Takeover Proposal, (iii) amend or grant any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) approve, endorse, recommend, execute or enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other Contract relating to any Takeover Proposal (each, a “Company Acquisition Agreement”) or any proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, (v) take any action to exempt any Person from, or make any acquisition of securities of the Company by any Person not subject to, any state Takeover Law that applies to the Company with respect to a Takeover Proposal or otherwise, except for Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (vi) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing or otherwise authorize or permit any of its Representatives to take any such action.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.07(a), prior to the receipt of the Company Requisite Vote, the Company’s board of directors, directly or indirectly through any Representative, may, subject to Section 6.07(c) (i) participate in negotiations or discussions with any third party that has made (and not withdrawn) a bona fide, unsolicited Takeover Proposal in writing that the Company’s board of directors believes in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and (ii) thereafter furnish to such third party non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to an executed confidentiality agreement that constitutes an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (a copy of which confidentiality agreement shall be promptly (in all events within twenty-four (24) hours) provided to Parent); provided, that the Company shall promptly provide to Parent and Merger Sub any non-public information that is provided to any such Person which has not previously been provided to Parent and Merger Sub.

(c) The Company’s board of directors shall not take any of the actions referred to in Section 6.07(b) unless the Company shall have delivered to Parent a prior written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action. The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours) after receipt by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives of any Takeover Proposal, any inquiry that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, any request for non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the Business, properties, assets, personnel, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any third party. In such notice, the Company shall identify the third party making, and details of the material terms and conditions of, any such Takeover Proposal, indication or request. The Company shall keep Parent fully informed, on a current and prompt basis, of the status and material terms of any such Takeover Proposal, indication or request, including the material terms and conditions thereof any material amendments or proposed amendments. The Company shall provide Parent with at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice of any meeting of the Company’s board of directors at which the Company’s board of directors is reasonably expected to consider any Takeover Proposal. The Company shall promptly provide Parent with a list of any nonpublic information concerning the Company’s business, present or future performance, financial condition or results of operations, provided to any third party, and, to the extent such information has not been previously provided to Parent, copies of such information.

(d) Except as set forth in this Section 6.07(d), neither the Company’s board of directors nor any committee thereof shall (i)(A) fail to make, change, withdraw, withhold, amend, modify or qualify, or publicly propose to make, change, withdraw, withhold, amend, modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, the Company Board Recommendation, or (B) adopt, approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, endorse or recommend to the stockholders of the Company any Takeover Proposal or Superior Proposal, (ii) fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender offer or exchange offer for the shares of Common Stock within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such offer, (iii) make any public statement inconsistent with the Company Board Recommendation, (iv) resolve or agree to take any of the foregoing actions (any of the foregoing, a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”), or (v) authorize, cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to enter into any Company Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Requisite Vote, but not after, the Company’s board of directors may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or cause the Company to enter into (or permit any Subsidiary to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Takeover Proposal only if the board of directors of the Company has determined in in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that (i) the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to cause the Company’s board of directors to be in breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (ii) that such Takeover Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that prior to taking such action, (A) the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing, at least five (5) Business Days (the “Notice Period”) before making a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or entering into (or causing a Subsidiary to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement, of its intention to take such action with respect to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall (1) state expressly that the Company has received a Takeover Proposal that the Company’s board of directors intends to declare a Superior Proposal and that the Company’s board of directors intends to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and/or the Company intends to enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement, and (2) include a copy of the most current version of the proposed agreement relating to such Superior Proposal (which version shall be updated on a prompt basis), the identity of the third party making such Superior Proposal, and a copy of any financing commitments relating thereto; (B) the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Takeover Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, if Parent, in its discretion, proposes to make such adjustments (it being agreed that in the event that, after commencement of the Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including, any revision in price, the Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least three (3) Business Days remains in the Notice Period subsequent to the time the Company notifies Parent of any such material revision (it being understood that there may be multiple extensions)); and (C) following the end of such Notice Period (as extended pursuant to the preceding clause (B)) the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel, that such Takeover Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal after taking into account any adjustments made by Parent during the Notice Period in the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and provided, further, that the Company has complied with its obligations under this Section 6.07.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 6.07 shall prohibit the Company, after the receipt of advice from outside legal counsel that failure to disclose such position would constitute a violation of applicable Law, from (i) disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, provided that any disclosures permitted under this Section 6.07(e) that does not contain either an express rejection of any applicable Takeover Proposal or an express reaffirmation of the Company Board Recommendation shall be deemed a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, or (ii) making any “stop-look-and-listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Section 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communications to the stockholders of the Company) in which the Company indicates that it has not changed the Company Board Recommendation.

SECTION 6.08. Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions no less favorable than those contained, as the date of this Agreement, in the Company’s and any Company Subsidiary’s certificates of incorporation and bylaws or similar Organizational Documents as in effect as of the date hereof or in any indemnification agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with any of their respective directors or officers copies of which have been provided to Parent prior to the date hereof, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Effective Time were current or former directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim. From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 6.08.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, in accordance with Section 6.08(a), provide indemnification to each current and former director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”) in connection with any actual or (to the extent required in accordance with Section 6.08(a)) threatened Action, arising out of, relating to or in connection with any action or omission occurring before the Effective Time, and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall require the Surviving Corporation to indemnify any Indemnified Parties to the extent such indemnification would not be permitted to be provided by the Company under the DGCL (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 145 of the DGCL). Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 6.08(b) with respect to any Action shall notify the Surviving Corporation of such Action promptly after becoming aware thereof.

(c) The Surviving Corporation shall (i) for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to purchase comparable insurance for such six (6)-year period with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; or (ii) purchase, to be effective as of the Effective Time, a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” policy on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent benefits as the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time, covering without limitation the transactions contemplated hereby. If such tail prepaid policy has been obtained as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation, and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for insurance hereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date hereof (the “Base Amount”) in respect of such “tail” policy or other coverage required to be obtained pursuant to this Section 6.08, and if the cost of such policy or coverage would otherwise exceed the Base Amount, the Surviving Corporation shall purchase as much coverage as reasonably practicable for the Base Amount.

(d) The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Indemnified Party may have under the certificates of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation, any other indemnification arrangement, the DGCL or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 6.08 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties.

(e) In the event 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 in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, the Surviving Corporation shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation or the continuing or surviving corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.08.

SECTION 6.09. Employee Matters. For a period of one (1) year immediately following the Closing Date, the Company shall provide employees of the Company who continue to be employed (at the sole election of the Parent or Surviving Corporation) by the Surviving Corporation after the Closing Date (the “Company Employees”) with (i) base salaries and commission structures comparable, in the aggregate, as in effect on the Closing Date or as provided by Parent or its Affiliates to their employees who are similarly situated to the Company Employees and (ii) employee benefit plans and programs that are comparable, in the aggregate and in all material respects, with the employee benefit plans and programs provided by the Company to Company Employees prior to the Closing Date or by Parent or its Affiliates to their employees who are similarly situated to Company Employees. The Surviving Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to recognize the service of Company Employees with the Company prior to the Closing Date as service with the Surviving Corporation and its Affiliates in connection with any tax-qualified pension plan, 401(k) savings plan and welfare benefit plans and policies (including vacations and leave policies) maintained by the Surviving Corporation which are made available following the Closing Date by the Surviving Corporation to Company Employees for purposes of any waiting period, vesting, eligibility and benefit entitlement (but excluding benefit accruals). Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring Parent or its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation from and after the Closing) to continue any specific plans or to continue the employment of any Company Employee.

SECTION 6.10. Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall (a) promptly advise Parent of any proceedings commenced after the date hereof against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers or directors (in their capacities as such) by any stockholder of the Company (on their own behalf or on behalf of the Company) relating to this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby (each, a “Stockholder Litigation”), (b) keep Parent reasonably informed regarding any such Stockholder Litigation, (c) give Parent the opportunity to participate in any such Stockholder Litigation and to consult with the Company and its legal counsel regarding the defense or settlement thereof, and (d) not settle any such Stockholder Litigation without Parent’s prior written consent.

SECTION 6.11. Takeover Statute. If any Takeover Law may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the Company and Parent shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby 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 contemplated hereby.

SECTION 6.12. Confirmation of Capitalization. On the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a certificate executed by an executive officer of the Company (the “Company Share Statement”) setting forth, as of the Closing Date, true and accurate calculations of (i) the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock and (ii) the outstanding Company stock options, segregated as to Exercisable In-the-Money Options and out-of-the-money options. Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to rely exclusively, without independent verification or investigation, upon the figures set forth in the Company Share Statement and the underlying calculations in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. For the avoidance of doubt, other than with respect to any issuances made in compliance with Section 6.01, the Company covenants and agrees that the information contained in the Company Share Statement shall match the disclosure made in connection with Section 3.03.

SECTION 6.13. Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be a release mutually agreed to by the Company and Parent. Thereafter, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub agrees that no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party without the prior written consent of the Company and Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be permitted by Section 6.07 or required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or Governmental Authority to which the relevant party is subject, wherever situated, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall consult with the other party about, and allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance.

SECTION 6.14. Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act any dispositions of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock (including derivative securities with respect to such shares) that are treated as dispositions under such rule and result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each director or officer of the Company who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company.

SECTION 6.15. Equity Financing. Between the date hereof and the Effective Time, Parent will use reasonable best efforts to obtain the Equity Financing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter and consummate the Equity Financing at and as of the Closing Date on the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, including using reasonable best efforts to (a) satisfy or obtain a waiver of all conditions applicable to Parent to obtaining the Equity Financing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter that are within Parent’s and Merger Sub’s control, (b) maintain in effect the Equity Commitment Letter, (c) comply with its covenants and other obligations under the Equity Commitment Letter and (d) exercise any and all rights to obtain from the Equity Investors the proceeds of the Equity Financing. Nothing in this Section 6.15 or any other provisions of this Agreement shall require, and in no event shall the “reasonable best efforts” of Parent or Merger Sub be deemed or construed to require, Parent or Merger Sub to (i) seek the Equity Financing from any source other than the Equity Investors or in any amount in excess of that contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter, or (ii) pay any fees in excess of those contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter (whether to secure waiver of any conditions contained therein or otherwise).

SECTION 6.16. Further Action. Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law, and to execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

None of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.01, Section 7.02, or Section 7.03, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s breach, including such Party’s failure to use the standard of efforts required from such party to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby, as required by and subject to Section 6.15.

Article VIII

TERMINATION

SECTION 8.01. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by the Company if (i) the board of directors of the Company authorizes the Company to enter into, or publicly announced its intention to enter into, a Company Acquisition Agreement in respect of an alternative Takeover Proposal, or (ii) the board of directors of the Company has effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, withdrawn or modified in any manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub its approval or recommendation of the Merger or this Agreement in connection with, or approved or recommended, any alternative Takeover Proposal, in either instance, (X) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 6.07, and (Y) the Company has paid the Termination Fee;

(b) by either the Company or Parent if the Closing shall not have occurred by November 8, 2017 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(b) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any covenant or obligation under this Agreement, or whose breach of any representation or warranty, shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such Termination Date (for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(b) if, as of such time, it has failed to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 7.02(f) or (g));

(c) by either Parent or the Company in the event that any Restraint shall be in effect restraining, enjoining, preventing or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or making the consummation of the Merger illegal and shall have become final and non-appealable after the Parties have used reasonable best efforts to have such Restraint removed, repealed or overturned;

(d) by the Company if Parent or Merger Sub shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.01 or Section 7.03, and (B) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by Parent and Merger Sub within 30 calendar days (but in no instance beyond the Termination Date) following receipt of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from the Company; provided, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(d) if the Company is then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder that would result in the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.02 not being satisfied;

(e) by Parent if the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 and (B) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by the Company within 30 calendar days (but in no instance beyond the Termination Date) following receipt of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from Parent; provided, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(e) if Parent or Merger Sub is then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder that would result in the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.01 not being satisfied;

(f) by Parent if the board of directors of the Company shall have effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, withdrawn or modified in any manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub its approval or recommendation of the Merger or this Agreement in connection with, or approved or recommended, any alternative Takeover Proposal;

(g) by Parent if (A) the Company shall have entered into, or publicly announced its intention to enter into, a Company Acquisition Agreement in respect of an alternative Takeover Proposal; or (B) the Company shall have breached the provisions of Section 6.07, and such violation or breach has resulted in the receipt by the Company of a Takeover Proposal;

(h) by the Company if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 and Section 7.03 have been satisfied (other than those that require deliveries or are tested at the time of Closing, which conditions would have been satisfied if the Closing had occurred at the time of such termination), (ii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed by written notice to Parent that (x) all conditions set forth in Section 7.01 have been satisfied (other than those that require deliveries or are tested at the time of Closing, which conditions would have been satisfied if the Closing had occurred at the time of such termination) or that it has provided an irrevocable notice of waiver (effective as of Closing) of any unsatisfied conditions in Section 7.01 and (y) it is prepared to consummate the Merger at the Closing, and (iii) Parent and Merger Sub fail to consummate the Merger within two (2) business days following the delivery of such notice; provided, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(h) if the Company is then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder that would result in the closing conditions set forth in Sections 7.02 or 7.03 not being satisfied;

(i) by the mutual written consent of the Company and Parent; or

(j) by Parent if the Company shall have failed to deliver the Written Consent to Parent within eight (8) hours after the execution of this Agreement by each Party.

The right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto or any of their respective Representatives, whether prior to or after the execution of this Agreement. A terminating party shall provide written notice of termination to the other parties specifying with particularity the reason for such termination. If more than one provision in this Section 8.01 is available to a terminating party in connection with a termination, a terminating party may rely on any and all available provisions in this Section 8.01 for any such termination.

SECTION 8.02. Termination Fee; Parent Expenses.

(a) In the event that (i) after the date hereof a Takeover Proposal shall have been made to the Company or shall have been made directly to the stockholders of the Company generally, (ii) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(b) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(e), and (iii) within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company consummates a transaction that constitutes a Takeover Proposal or enters into a Company Acquisition Agreement with respect to any Takeover Proposal, then the Company shall pay Parent a fee equal to $1,350,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same-day funds on the second (2nd) Business Day following the consummation of such transaction.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b) and as of such time the condition set forth in Sections 7.02(f) or (g) is unsatisfied (other than as a result of Parent’s or Merger Sub’s failure to use their reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with any of their respective obligations under Section 6.04), then the Company shall pay Parent the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds on the second (2nd) Business Day following the consummation of such transaction.

(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Sections 8.01(f) or (g), then the Company shall pay Parent a fee equal to the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds on the second (2nd) Business Day following such termination.

(d) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(j), then the Company shall pay Parent the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds prior to or concurrently with such termination.

(e) The Company agrees that if this Agreement shall be terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(e), then the Company will pay to Parent, or as directed by Parent, an amount equal to the Parent Expenses (as hereinafter defined); provided that such amount shall be paid promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such termination. In the event that following such payment of the Parent Expenses, Parent is paid a Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.02(a), the aggregate amount of Parent Expenses shall be netted against the Termination Fee. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Parent Expenses” shall be an amount equal to Parent’s reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, all outside attorneys’, accountants’ and investment bankers’ fees and expenses); provided that in no event shall the Parent Expenses exceed, in the aggregate, $500,000.

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions for payment of the Termination Fee and Parent Expenses are an integral part of the Transactions and are included herein in order to induce Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement and to reimburse Parent for incurring the costs and expenses related to entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder. If the Company fails to pay any amounts due under this Section 8.02 and Parent commences a suit which results in a final, non-appealable judgment against the Company, for any such amounts or any portion thereof, then the Company shall pay Parent’s costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such suit, together with interest on any such amounts at the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal) in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties hereby acknowledge that in the event that the Termination Fee is paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 8.02, the Termination Fee shall be Parent’s and Merger Sub’s sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement.

(g) The Parties acknowledge that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the applicable Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

SECTION 8.03. Company Expenses.

(a) Parent agrees that if this Agreement shall be terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(d) or Section 8.01(h) then Parent will pay to the Company, or as directed by the Company, an amount equal to the Company Expenses (as hereinafter defined); provided that such amount shall be paid promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such termination. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company Expenses” shall be an amount equal to the Company’s reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, all attorneys’, accountants’ and investment bankers’ fees and expenses); provided that in no event shall the Parent Expenses exceed, in the aggregate, $300,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties hereby acknowledge that in the event that the Company Expenses are paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 8.03, the Company Expenses shall be the Company’s sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions for payment of the Company Expenses are an integral part of the Transactions and are included herein in order to induce the Company to enter into this Agreement and to reimburse the Company for incurring the costs and expenses related to entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder. If Parent fails to pay any amounts due under this Section 8.03 and the Company commences a suit which results in a final, non-appealable judgment against Parent, for any such amounts or any portion thereof, then Parent shall pay the Company’s costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such suit, together with interest on any such amounts at the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal) in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment; provided, however, that in no event shall the such fees and expenses exceed, together with any and all amounts paid in accordance with Section 8.03(a), in the aggregate, $300,000.

SECTION 8.04. Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or their respective officers or directors, except (a) as set forth in Article I, Section 6.03, Section 8.02, Section 8.03, this Section 8.08, and Article IX, which shall remain in full force and effect, and (b) other than in the event of Fraud, none of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company shall have any liability for any damages whatsoever (which shall include reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs) following a valid termination of this Agreement other than as expressly set forth in Sections 8.02 and 8.03.

SECTION 9.04. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect for so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto.

This Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules and exhibits hereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

SECTION 9.08. Waiver. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

SECTION 9.09. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, including any rights of employment for any specified period, under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.10. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State, without regard to conflicts of laws principles. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the State of Delaware over any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such dispute or any suit, action proceeding related thereto may be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

SECTION 9.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. Each of the parties hereto hereby (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.11.

SECTION 9.12. Specific Performance. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that, other than as expressly set forth in Section 8.02(f) or Section 8.03(a), the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof or thereof in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

SECTION 9.15. Disclosure Schedules.(a) The Disclosure Schedules have been arranged for purposes of convenience only, in sections corresponding to the Sections of Article III. Any exception or qualification set forth in the Disclosure Schedules with respect to a particular representation or warranty contained in Article III of this Agreement shall be deemed to be an exception or qualification with respect to all other applicable representations contained in Article III of the Agreement to which such exception or qualification is reasonably apparent on its face to be applicable, whether or not such exception or qualification is so numbered. To the extent that any representation or warranty contained in Article III of this Agreement is limited or qualified by the materiality of the matters to which the representation or warranty is given, the inclusion of any matter in the Disclosure Schedules does not constitute a determination by the Company that such matters are material. In addition, under no circumstances shall the disclosure of any matter in the Disclosure Schedules where a representation or warranty in Article III of this Agreement is limited or qualified by the materiality of the matters to which the representation or warranty is given imply that any other undisclosed matter having a greater value or other significance is material.
