THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of August 29, 2018, is made by and among Stryker Corporation, a Michigan corporation (“Parent”), Austin Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and K2M Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Defined terms used in this Agreement have the respective meanings ascribed to them herein.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the respective boards of directors of Parent, the Company (the “Company Board”) and Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Board”) have approved and, in the case of the Company Board and the Merger Sub Board, declared advisable and in the best interests of their respective stockholders, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”);

WHEREAS, the Company Board has, subject to Sections 5.5(d) and 5.5(e), resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders approve the adoption of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe various conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties and covenants and subject to the conditions herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger and a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”).

Section 1.2. The Closing. Subject to the provisions of Article VI, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m. (local time) on a date to be specified by the parties hereto, but no later than the second (2^nd) Business Day after the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of such conditions), unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto (such date being the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.

Section 1.3. Effective Time. Concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall cause an appropriate certificate of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed and filed with the Delaware Secretary of State as provided under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later date and time as is agreed between Parent and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”). The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

Section 1.4. Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of Incorporation, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall, by virtue of the Merger, be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A hereto and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended as provided by Law and such certificate of incorporation (subject to Section 5.6).

(b) At the Effective Time, Parent shall take such action necessary to change the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, to be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, except as to the name of the Surviving Corporation, which shall be “K2M Group Holdings, Inc.”, until thereafter amended as provided by Law, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such bylaws.

Section 1.5. Board of Directors; Officers. The members of the board of directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the members of the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation, and the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected, designated or qualified.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 2.1. Effect on Securities.

(a) Effect of Merger. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the holders of any Securities of the Company or Merger Sub:

(i) Cancellation of Company Securities. Each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) held by the Company as treasury stock or held directly by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent (including Merger Sub) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration or payment shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof (such shares, “Canceled Shares”).

(ii) Conversion of Company Securities. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Canceled Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, $27.50 per share in cash, without interest (such amount of cash, the “Merger Consideration”).Each share of Company Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 2.1(a)(ii) shall no longer be outstanding and shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holders of certificates (the “Certificates”) or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”), which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Company Common Stock, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Common Stock other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.2, the Merger Consideration.

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

(b) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the number or type of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall occur as a result of a reclassification, recapitalization, exchange, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or combination or readjustment of shares or any similar event or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, the Merger Consideration and any other similarly dependent amounts and items, as the case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.1(b) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 2.2. Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Designation of Paying Agent; Deposit of Funds. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall, at its sole cost and expense, enter into a customary paying agent agreement with a nationally recognized financial institution designated by Parent that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(a)(ii). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent, for payment in accordance with this Article II through the Paying Agent, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration in exchange for all of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Canceled Shares or Dissenting Shares). Such funds shall be invested by the Paying Agent if and as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation pending payment thereof by the Paying Agent to the holders of the shares of Company Common Stock, provided, however, that no such

investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to the holders of the shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii) and to the extent of any such loss, Parent shall promptly fund additional cash amounts to the Paying Agent sufficient to enable payment of such amounts. Earnings from such investments shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and the Surviving Corporation, and no part of such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of holders of shares of Company Common Stock.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery of Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent, and which shall be in the form and have such other customary provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions (which instructions shall be in the form and have such other customary provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates.

(c) Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable, cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled. Each Book-Entry Share shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Book-Entry Share. Until surrendered, in the case of a Certificate, or paid, in the case of a Book-Entry Share, in each case, as contemplated by this Section 2.2(c), each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.2(c). The Paying Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and make such payments and deliveries with respect to Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the cash payable pursuant to this Section 2.2(c).

(d) Unregistered Transfers. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the appropriate amount of Merger Consideration may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered is registered, if such

Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer (and accompanied by all documents reasonably required by the Paying Agent) or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(e) Termination of Fund. Any portion of the funds made available to the Paying Agent which remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation or its designee upon demand, and any such holders prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation as general creditor thereof for payment of their claims for Merger Consideration.

(f) No Liability. None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a Governmental Authority pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered or Book-Entry Share not paid, in each case, in accordance with Section 2.2(c), immediately prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority under applicable Law, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Withholding. Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, any of their applicable Subsidiaries and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, any of their applicable Subsidiaries or the Paying Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of applicable Tax Law. Any amounts so withheld and paid over to an applicable Governmental Authority as required by applicable Law 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 Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, any of their applicable Subsidiaries or the Paying Agent.

Section 2.3. Company Equity Awards.

(a) Treatment of Company Options. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any Company Option or substitute for any Company Option any similar award for Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger and any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior thereto, whether vested or unvested, shall by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company Option be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Company at the Effective Time a cash payment (without interest) equal to (i) the product of (A) the excess, if any, of (1) the Merger Consideration over (2) the per share exercise price of such Company Option, and (B) the number

of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of the Effective Time (the “Option Consideration”), less (ii) any applicable withholding Taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld. As of the Effective Time, all Company Options shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically cease to exist, and each holder of a Company Option shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Option Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, if the exercise price payable in respect of a share of Company Common Stock underlying a Company Option equals or exceeds the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be cancelled for no consideration immediately prior to the Effective Time and the holder thereof shall have no further rights with respect thereto.

(b) Treatment of Company Restricted Stock Awards. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any Company Restricted Stock Awards or substitute for any Company Restricted Stock Awards any similar award of Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the Effective Time, each Company Restricted Stock Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company Restricted Stock Award be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Company at the Effective Time a cash payment (without interest) equal to (i) the product of (A) the Merger Consideration and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Restricted Stock Award as of the Effective Time (the “Restricted Stock Consideration”), less (ii) any applicable withholding Taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld.

(c) Treatment of Company RSU Awards. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any Company RSU Award or substitute for any Company RSU Award any similar award for Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the Effective Time, each Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company RSU Award be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Company at the Effective Time a cash payment (without interest) equal to (i) the product of (A) the Merger Consideration and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU Award as of the Effective Time (the “RSU Consideration”), less (ii) any applicable withholding Taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payment in respect of any Company RSU Award which immediately prior to such cancellation is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made on the applicable settlement date(s) for such Company RSU Award if required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Method of Payment. Any Option Consideration, Restricted Stock Consideration or RSU Consideration to which an employee or former employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries becomes entitled pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Section 2.3(b) or Section 2.3(c) shall be paid through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time (and in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date). Any Option Consideration, Restricted Stock Consideration or RSU Consideration to which any other person becomes entitled pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Section 2.3(b) or Section 2.3(c) shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, as applicable (or, at the option of the Surviving Corporation, by the Paying Agent), as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time (and in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date).

(e) Company ESPP. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company Board (or, if applicable, any committee thereof administering the Company ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other necessary actions such that (i) with respect to any Offering Period in effect as of the date of this Agreement under the Company ESPP, such Offering Period shall terminate and each ESPP Option shall be exercised upon the earlier to occur of (A) an earlier Purchase Date (“New Purchase Date”) in accordance with Section 6.04(a) of the Company ESPP that is no later than four (4) complete Trading Days prior to the Effective Time or (B) the date on which the Offering Period would otherwise end, and no additional Offering Period shall commence under the Company ESPP after the date of this Agreement; (ii) no individual participating in the Company ESPP shall be permitted to (A) increase the amount of such participant’s rate of payroll contributions thereunder from the rate in effect as of the date of this Agreement or (B) except to the extent required by applicable Law, make separate non-payroll contributions to the Company ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement; (iii) no individual who is not participating in the Offering Period in effect as of the date of this Agreement may commence participation in such Offering Period following the date of this Agreement; and (iv) subject to the consummation of the Merger, the Company ESPP shall terminate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall notify each participant in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to any New Purchase Date that the Purchase Date for such participant’s ESPP Option (including for purposes of determining the ESPP Option Price of such ESPP Option) has been changed to the New Purchase Date and that such participant’s ESPP Option will be exercised automatically on the New Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period.

(f) Company Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall provide such notice, if any, to the extent required under the terms of any of the Company Equity Plans, obtain any necessary consents, adopt applicable resolutions, amend the terms of any of the Company Equity Plans or any outstanding awards thereunder, and take all other appropriate actions to (i) give effect to the transactions contemplated herein; (ii) terminate each of the Company Equity Plans as of the Effective Time; and (iii) ensure that after the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Equity Award, any beneficiary thereof nor any other participant in any of the Company Equity Plans shall have any right thereunder to acquire any Securities of the Company or to receive any payment or benefit with respect to any award previously granted under any of the Company Equity Plans, except as provided in this Section 2.3. The Company shall provide Parent with documentation evidencing the completion of the foregoing actions (the form and substance of such documentation shall be subject to review and approval by Parent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) no later than the Business Day preceding the Effective Time.

Section 2.4. Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Paying Agent or Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable and customary amount as the Paying Agent or Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article II.

Section 2.5. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that holders of Company Common Stock are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, any shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has properly exercised and perfected his, her or its demand for appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL and not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s rights to appraisal (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but the holders of such Dissenting Shares shall instead be entitled to receive such consideration as may be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (it being understood and acknowledged that at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the consideration therefor as may be determined in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL); provided, however, that if any such holder shall have failed to timely perfect or shall have waived, effectively withdrawn or lost his, her or its right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL (whether occurring before, at or after the Effective Time), or a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined that such holder is not entitled to such right to appraisal and payment under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, and such shares shall no longer be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, effective or attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL received by the Company relating to appraisal demands, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all discussions, negotiations and Proceedings with respect to such demands.

Section 2.7. Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time any further action is determined by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation or Parent with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company with respect to the Merger, the officers and directors of Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and otherwise) to take such action.

(b) Each Benefit Plan is and has at all times been operated and administered in all material respects in accordance with its terms and in compliance in all material respects with applicable Law, including ERISA, the Code and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Each Benefit Plan has been operated and administered in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable. All claims incurred with a date of service on or before the Closing Date under any Benefit Plan that is an “employee welfare benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA that is self-insured will be paid by the Company or accrued on the Company financial statements no later than the Closing Date.

(c) Each Pension Plan intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code has received a recent and currently effective determination letter or can rely on an opinion letter for a prototype plan from the Internal Revenue Service that such Pension Plan is so qualified and exempt from taxation under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no condition exists that would be expected to adversely affect such qualification.

(d) None of the Benefit Plans is, and none of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has, in the past six (6) years, maintained or had an obligation to contribute to, (i) a “single employer plan” (as such term is defined in Section 4001(a)(15) of ERISA) subject to Section 412 of the Code or Title IV of ERISA; (ii) a “multiple employer plan” or “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (as such terms are defined in ERISA); (iii) a welfare benefit fund (as such term is defined in Section 419 of the Code); (iv) a Multiemployer Pension Plan; or (v) a voluntary employees’ beneficiary association under Section 501(c)(9) of the Code.

(e) None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” (as such term is defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code) or breached any fiduciary duties with respect to any Benefit Plan that reasonably would be expected to subject the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation to any material tax or penalty.

(f) With respect to any Benefit Plan, there is no Proceeding pending, or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened or anticipated with or by the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Department of Labor or any other Governmental Authority, other than routine claims for benefits, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to subject the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation to any material liability.

(g) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any obligations to provide any health or welfare benefits (whether or not insured) to retired or other former employees, directors or consultants, except as specifically required by Part 6 of Title I of ERISA (“COBRA”) or, pursuant to an applicable employment agreement or severance agreement, plan or policy listed in Section 3.12(g) of the Company Disclosure Letter requiring the Company or any Subsidiary to pay or subsidize COBRA premiums for a terminated employee following the employee’s termination.

(h) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, or any termination of employment or service (or other event or occurrence) in connection therewith will (i) entitle any current or former employee, director or consultant of the Company or any of its

Subsidiaries to any payment or benefit (or result in the funding of any such payment or benefit) or result in any forgiveness of Indebtedness with respect to any such persons; (ii) increase the amount of any compensation, equity award or other benefits otherwise payable by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, funding or vesting of any compensation, equity award or other benefits except as required under Section 411(d)(3) of the Code.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any obligation to gross-up, indemnify or otherwise reimburse any individual with respect to any Tax, including under Sections 409A or 4999 of the Code.

(j) None of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has used the services or workers provided by third Person contract labor suppliers, temporary employees, “leased employees” (as that term is defined in Section 414(n) of the Code), or individuals who have provided services as independent contractors to an extent that would reasonably be expected to result in the disqualification of any of the Benefit Plans or the imposition of material penalties or excise taxes with respect to the Benefit Plans by the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, and no such individuals are entitled to any benefits under any Benefit Plan that they have been improperly denied by reason of their misclassification as independent contractors.

(k) With respect to each Foreign Benefit Plan, except as would not be expected to result in any material liability to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries: (i) such Foreign Benefit Plan is in compliance and has been administered at all times in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Laws of such jurisdiction in which such Benefit Plan is established and the terms of the applicable Foreign Benefit Plan; (ii) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have complied with all applicable reporting and notice requirements, and such Foreign Benefit Plan has obtained from the Governmental Authority having jurisdiction with respect to such Foreign Benefit Plan any required determinations, if any, that such Foreign Benefit Plan is in material compliance with the Laws of the relevant jurisdiction if such determinations are required in order to give effect to such Foreign Benefit Plan; (iii) to the Knowledge of the Company, there are no pending investigations by any Governmental Authority involving any Foreign Benefit Plan; and (iv) the consummation of the contemplated transactions will not by itself create or together with another event result in any liability with respect to such Foreign Benefit Plan. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates has (i) ever been an employer in relation to, participated in, or had any liability (whether prospective, contingent or otherwise) to or in respect of a Foreign Benefit Plan constituting a defined benefit pension program or scheme, or (ii) otherwise entered into any contractual arrangements, or given any promises or commitments, relating to providing pension benefits to employees or officers (or former employees or officers) pursuant to any plan, program, agreement or arrangement that would constitute a Foreign Benefit Plan. If required under applicable laws to be funded and/or book-reserved, such Foreign Benefit Plan is funded and/or book-reserved, as appropriate, to the extent so required by applicable Laws. Each Foreign Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify for tax-preferential treatment under applicable Laws so qualifies, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a material liability.

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond to any comments of the SEC or its staff, to clear the

preliminary Proxy Statement with the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after filing and to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement. The Company will advise Parent promptly after receipt of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC or its staff for additional information. The Company will promptly provide Parent with copies of all written correspondence between the Company (or its Representatives) and the SEC (or its staff) regarding the Proxy Statement or the Merger. If at any time prior to the Company Stockholders’ Meeting there shall occur any event that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders such an amendment or supplement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated above, prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement or responding to any comments of the SEC (or its staff) with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent an opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (and the Company shall give reasonable consideration to all reasonable comments provided by Parent or its Representatives).

(b) Subject to the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (in consultation with Parent), conduct one or more “broker searches,” establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholders’ Meeting”) for the purpose of seeking the Company Stockholder Approval and shall submit such proposal to such holders at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and, except for a proposal to adjourn the Company Stockholders’ Meeting if there are insufficient affirmative votes represented at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, shall not submit any other proposal to such holders in connection with the Company Stockholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent. The Company shall not change such record date for the Company Stockholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent and shall not adjourn or otherwise postpone or delay the Company Stockholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent; provided, however, that the Company may, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders’ Meeting (i) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting, (ii) after consultation with Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure the distribution of any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement required by Law within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting, (iii) if there are insufficient affirmative votes represented (either in person or by proxy) at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, or (iv) after consultation with Parent, to the extent otherwise required to comply with applicable Law; provided, further, however, that (A) unless agreed to in writing by Parent, (x) any such adjournment or postponement under the preceding clause (i) or (iii) shall be for a period of no more than ten (10) Business Days each, and (y) the Company shall only be permitted to effect up to two (2) such adjournments or postponements pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (iii) (in the aggregate), (B) no postponement contemplated by the preceding clause (i) or (iii) shall be permitted if it would require a change to the record date for the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and (C) if requested by Parent, the Company shall effect an

adjournment or postponement of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting under the circumstances contemplated by the preceding clause (i) or (iii) for a period of up to ten (10) Business Days each (provided, however, that Parent shall only make up to two (2) such requests, and no such request for a postponement shall be permitted if it would require a change in the record date for the Company Stockholders’ Meeting). If the Company Board has not made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 5.5(e), the Company shall, through the Company Board, make the Company Recommendation, and shall include such Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, and use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any Company Adverse Recommendation Change, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the obligations of the Company hereunder shall continue in full force and effect and such obligations shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Company Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Company Superior Proposal).

(c) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of such request, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall furnish the Company with all information reasonably requested by the Company and required pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be set forth in the Proxy Statement.

(d) Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall execute and deliver, in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL and in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, a written consent adopting this Agreement.

Section 5.3. Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto will use their respective reasonable best efforts to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to cause the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VI to be satisfied, including using reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following: (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or non-actions, consents and approvals from Governmental Authorities or other Persons necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Authorities, if any) and the taking of all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval from, or to avoid a Proceeding by, any Governmental Authority or other Persons necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, (ii) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal Proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, performed or consummated by such party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Authority vacated or reversed and (iii) prompt provision of any additional information to any Governmental Authority as such Governmental Authority may lawfully request and the execution and delivery of any additional instruments reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger and any other transactions to be performed or consummated by such party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to carry out fully the purposes of this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto shall as promptly as reasonably

practicable after the date of this Agreement, upon a date to be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, unless agreed otherwise by the parties hereto), make its respective filings under the HSR Act. Each of the parties hereto shall as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, upon a date to be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, make any other applications and filings as reasonably determined by the Company and Parent under other applicable Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than as required by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to, and without the prior written consent of Parent, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates will, grant or offer to grant any accommodation or concession (financial or otherwise), or make any payment, to any third Person in connection with seeking or obtaining its consent to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (it being understood that this sentence does not apply to the actions required by Section 5.3(d) or Section 5.3(e)).

(b) In connection with and without limiting the efforts referenced in this Section 5.3, each of the parties hereto will furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of any required governmental filings or submissions and will cooperate in responding to any investigation or other inquiry from a Governmental Authority or in connection with any Proceeding initiated by a private party, in each case, under any applicable Antitrust Laws, including (i) promptly informing the other party of such inquiry or Proceeding, (ii) consulting in advance before making any presentations or submissions to a Governmental Authority, or in connection with any such Proceeding, to any other Person, and supplying each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications between either party and any Governmental Authority, or in connection with any such Proceeding, between either party and any other Person with respect to this Agreement and (iii) providing the other party with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with all written communications (including any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals) between either party and any Governmental Authority, or in connection with any such Proceeding, between either party and any other Person with respect to this Agreement; provided that materials required to be provided by one party to another pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns or may be provided on an outside counsel basis, if reasonably appropriate. In addition, each of the parties hereto will give reasonable notice to and consult with the other in advance of any meeting or substantive telephone call or conference with any Governmental Authority, or in connection with any such Proceeding, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by the Governmental Authority, give the other the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, telephone call or conference.

(c) The parties shall consult with each other with respect to obtaining all permits and Consents necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger.

(d) Subject to the limitations set forth below in Section 5.3(e), Parent agrees to take, or cause to be taken (including by its Subsidiaries), any and all steps and to make, or cause to be made (including by its Subsidiaries), any and all undertakings necessary to resolve such objections, if any, that a Governmental Authority may assert under any Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to avoid or eliminate any impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than the Termination Date, including (x) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of any businesses, assets, equity interests, product lines or properties of the Company, (y) creating, terminating, or divesting relationships, ventures, contractual rights or obligations of the Company and (z) otherwise taking or committing to take any action that would limit Parent’s freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain or hold, directly or indirectly, any businesses, assets, equity interests, product lines or properties of the Company, in each case as may be required in order to obtain all expirations or terminations of waiting periods required under any Antitrust Law or to avoid the commencement of any action by a Governmental Authority to prohibit the transactions contemplated by the Agreement under any Antitrust Law, or, in the alternative, to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Order in any action or proceeding seeking to prohibit the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or delay the Closing beyond the Termination Date. To assist Parent in complying with its obligations set forth in this Section 5.3(d), the Company shall enter into one or more agreements requested by Parent to be entered into by any of them prior to the Closing with respect to any transaction to divest, hold separate or otherwise take any action that limits the Company’s freedom of action, ownership or control with respect to, or their ability to retain or hold, directly or indirectly, any of the businesses, assets, equity interests, product lines or properties of the Company (each, a “Divestiture Action”); provided, however, that the consummation of the transactions provided for in any such agreement for a Divestiture Action shall be conditioned upon the Closing or satisfaction of all of the conditions to Closing in a case where the Closing will occur immediately following such Divestiture Action (and where Parent has irrevocably committed to effect the Closing immediately following such Divestiture Action).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of Parent or any of its Affiliates shall be required to take any Divestiture Action or otherwise agree to or proffer to sell, divest, hold separate, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber or impair or take any other action with respect to Parent’s or any of its Affiliates’ ability to own or operate any assets, properties, businesses or product lines of Parent or any of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries) or, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, any assets, properties, businesses or product lines of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that none of Parent or any of its Affiliates shall be required to take any action contemplated in Section 5.3(d) or this Section 5.3(e) in connection with any Proceeding by a Person other than a Governmental Authority, and the Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries to, unless requested to do so by Parent, commit to or effect any action contemplated in Section 5.3(d) or this Section 5.3(e).

Section 5.4. Access to Information; Confidentiality. From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent and Merger Sub, and their respective Representatives, reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to all of the officers, employees, agents, properties, books, contracts and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and during such period, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish reasonably promptly all other information concerning the business, properties and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent or Merger Sub may reasonably request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, the Company may restrict or prohibit such access to the extent that (a) any applicable Law requires the Company or its Subsidiaries to restrict or prohibit such access, (b) granting such access would violate any Contract or material obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with a third Person with respect to confidentiality or otherwise breach, contravene or violate, constitute a default under, or give a third Person the right to terminate or accelerate any obligations under, any then-effective Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or would disclose any information that is competitively sensitive or (c) granting access to such documents or information would reasonably be expected to result in a waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege in respect of such documents or information, provided, however, that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to communicate the applicable information to Parent in a way that would not violate the applicable Law, Contract or material obligation or waive such privilege or work-product doctrine. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub will hold any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.4 in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. No investigation pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company hereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to provide any access or make any disclosure to Parent pursuant to this Section 5.4 to the extent such access or information is reasonably pertinent to a litigation where the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties.

Section 5.5. No Solicitation.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1, except as expressly provided in Section 5.5(b) or Section 5.5(d), (i) the Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and instruct its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing activities, discussions, negotiations and communications, if any, with any Persons (or any of their Representatives) with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); (ii) the Company shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (A) initiate, seek, solicit, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage, or knowingly induce or take any other action designed or intended to lead to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to any inquiry with respect to, or the making, submission or announcement of, any Company Acquisition Proposal, (B) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any negotiations or discussions with, or furnish or cause to be furnished any information or data to, or furnish access to the Company’s (or any of its

Subsidiaries’) properties with respect to, any Person (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) relating to any Company Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than informing any Persons of the provisions of this Section 5.5), or grant any waiver or release under (or terminate, amend or modify any provision of), or fail to use reasonable best efforts to enforce to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any confidentiality or standstill or similar agreement (except that if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to grant any waiver or release would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may waive any such standstill provision solely to the extent necessary to permit a third Person to make a Company Acquisition Proposal), (C) execute or enter into any binding or non-binding letter of intent, agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement, commitment, arrangement or understanding relating to or in connection with, or that is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Company Acquisition Proposal (each, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”), (D) submit to the stockholders of the Company for their approval any Company Acquisition Proposal or Company Superior Proposal, or (E) resolve to do, or agree or announce an intention to do, any of the foregoing; (iii) the Company shall not provide (and will not permit its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to provide) and shall promptly, and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours of the date of this Agreement, terminate access of any third Person (and its Representatives) (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) to any data room (virtual or actual) containing any of the Company’s (or any Subsidiary of the Company’s) confidential information granted in connection with, or with the intent of obtaining, any possible Company Acquisition Proposal; and (iv) the Company, to the extent it has a right to do so, shall, and shall instruct its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to request that any such third Person (and its Representatives) (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) in possession of confidential information about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or its or its Subsidiaries’ businesses or operations) return or destroy all such information, and in connection therewith the Company shall, to the extent it has a right to do so, within twenty-four (24) hours of the date of this Agreement, demand the return or destruction of all confidential information and materials provided to any third Persons (or their Representatives) (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) relating to a possible Company Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, if the Company receives, after the date hereof, a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal from a third Person that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.5, then the Company may (i) furnish information concerning its business, properties or assets to such Person pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (a copy of which shall be provided to Parent promptly after execution) and (ii) negotiate and participate in discussions and negotiations with such Person concerning such Company Acquisition Proposal, in each case of clause (i) and (ii), if and only if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel) that (x) such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in a Company Superior Proposal and (y) the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under

applicable Law. The Company (A) shall promptly (and in any case within twenty-four (24) hours) provide Parent notice (1) of the receipt of any Company Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall include, if applicable, a complete, unredacted copy of such Company Acquisition Proposal, and (2) of any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, any requests for information from, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives concerning a Company Acquisition Proposal or proposal that is reasonably likely to constitute or lead to or result in a Company Acquisition Proposal, and disclose the identity of the other party (or parties) and, if applicable, the terms (including any amendments thereto) of such inquiry, offer, proposal, request, discussion or negotiation and, in the case of written materials, provide copies of such materials, (B) shall substantially concurrently (and in any case within twenty-four (24) hours) make available to Parent all information, including copies of all written materials, provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to such party but not previously made available to Parent and (C) shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably prompt basis (and, in any case, within twenty-four (24) hours of any significant development, discussions or negotiations) of the status and details (including amendments and proposed amendments) of any such Company Acquisition Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal, request, discussion or negotiation (which shall include, if applicable, copies of all drafts and final versions (and any comments thereon) of agreements (including schedules and exhibits thereto) relating to any Company Acquisition Proposal exchanged between the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives in each case thereof, on the one hand, and the Person (or any of its Representatives) making such Company Acquisition Proposal or such other inquiry, offer or proposal, on the other hand).

(c) Except as expressly permitted by Section 5.5(d) or Section 5.5(e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose to withdraw, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation, (ii) approve, authorize, declare advisable, endorse or recommend (or publicly propose to approve, authorize, declare advisable, endorse or recommend) any Company Acquisition Proposal, (iii) fail to include in the Proxy Statement the Company Recommendation, (iv) fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a written request by Parent to provide such reaffirmation following public disclosure of any Company Acquisition Proposal, (v) fail to recommend against any Company Acquisition Proposal that is a tender or exchange offer subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) of such tender or exchange offer (any action described in clauses (i) through (v) of this sentence being referred to as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (vi) adopt or approve, or propose to adopt or approve, or allow the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any Alternative Acquisition Agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement permitted under, and in compliance with Section 5.5(b)).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company or the Company Board receives a Company Superior Proposal, the Company Board may authorize and cause the Company to (x) effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and (y) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(ii) and concurrently with such termination enter into a

definitive agreement providing for such Company Superior Proposal (subject to the satisfaction of its obligations under Section 7.3) if (i) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; (ii) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to take such action; (iii) the Company has provided Parent a copy of the proposed definitive agreements (and any related agreements) relating to such Company Superior Proposal (and has informed Parent of the identity of the Person making such Company Superior Proposal); (iv) until 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth (4th) Business Day following the notice delivered pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 5.5(d), the Company and its Representatives shall have discussed and negotiated with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent requests to negotiate) any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to any material term or condition of any Company Superior Proposal shall require a new notice and a new negotiation period, which shall expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Business Day following the delivery of such new notice); and (v) no earlier than the end of such negotiation period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel), after considering and taking into account the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement made by Parent in writing during such period, that (A) the Company Acquisition Proposal that is the subject of the notice described in clause (ii) above still constitutes a Company Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, other than in connection with a Company Superior Proposal (which shall be subject to Section 5.5(d) and shall not be subject to this Section 5.5(e)), prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may, in response to a Company Intervening Event, effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change if (i) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; (ii) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect such a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.5(e) (which notice shall reasonably specify the facts and circumstances providing the basis of the Company Intervening Event and for the Company Board’s determination to effect the Company Adverse Recommendation Change in detail); (iii) until 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth (4th) Business Day following the notice delivered pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 5.5(e), the Company and its Representatives shall have discussed and negotiated with Parent in good faith any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (to the extent Parent requests to negotiate) (it being understood and agreed that any material change to the relevant facts and circumstances shall require a new notice and a new negotiation period, which shall expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Business Day following the delivery of such new notice); and (iv) no earlier than the end of such negotiation period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel), after considering and taking into account the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement made by Parent in writing during such period, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure of the Company Board to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that (A) in no event shall this Section 5.5(f) permit the Company or the Company Board to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 5.5(d) or Section 5.5(e), (B) in no event shall this Section 5.5(f) affect, modify or supplement the definition of Company Adverse Recommendation Change herein (or to the consequences thereof in accordance with this Agreement) and (C) any such disclosure (other than issuance by the Company of a “stop, look and listen” communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) that does not expressly reaffirm the Company Recommendation shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change; provided further that any factually accurate public statement that describes the Company’s receipt of a Company Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto and expressly reaffirms the Company Recommendation shall not be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change. The Company shall provide Parent with a copy of the text of any disclosure proposed to be made pursuant to this Section 5.5(f) at the earliest practicable time in advance of such disclosure.

Section 5.6. Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities, including advancement of expenses, for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the directors or officers of the Company at or prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws or any indemnification Contract between such directors or officers and the Company (in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement) shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time solely with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any action pending or asserted or any claim made for indemnification within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall guarantee and stand surety for, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 5.6.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall or, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of or after the Effective Time to, purchase a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” policy, with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing

policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance, with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions or actions contemplated by this Agreement), and Parent 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; provided, however, that the Company shall not pay, and the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay, in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of such “tail” policy. If the Company or the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policies prior to, as of or after the Effective Time, Parent shall, for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time; provided, further, however, that after the Effective Time, Parent shall not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of the coverage required to be obtained pursuant hereto, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as reasonably practicable for such amount.

(c) The covenants contained in this Section 5.6 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any such Person is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, contract or otherwise.

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

Section 5.7. Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event whose occurrence or non-occurrence, as the case may be, could reasonably be expected to cause any condition set forth in Section 6.2 not to be satisfied at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time; (b) any notice or other communication from any third Person alleging that the consent of such third Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (c) any material regulatory notice, report or results of inspection from the FDA or any similar Governmental Authority. Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company of (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event whose occurrence or non-occurrence, as the case may be, could reasonably be expected to cause any condition set forth in Section 6.3 not to be satisfied at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time; and (ii) any notice or other communication from any third Person alleging that the consent of such third Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties hereto or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereto

hereunder and any failure to give such notice with respect to clauses (b) or (c) above, or (ii) or (iii) above, as applicable, shall not constitute a breach of this Section 5.7 for purposes of Section 6.2(b) or Section 6.3(b). Except with respect to Antitrust Law, which is the subject of Section 5.3, the Company and Parent shall, to the extent permitted by Law, promptly provide the other with copies of all filings made by such party with any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.8. Public Disclosure. Parent and the Company shall mutually agree on the initial press release or releases with respect to the execution of this Agreement. Thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in effect, except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, neither the Company nor Parent, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall issue any press release or other announcement with respect to the Merger, the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or this Agreement without the prior consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except as such press release or other announcement may be required by Law or the rules of a national securities exchange or trading market on which such party’s Securities are listed, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such release or announcement in advance of its issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.8 shall not apply to any press release or other announcement (i) made by the Company with respect to or in connection with a Company Adverse Recommendation Change effected by the Company Board in accordance with this Agreement or (ii) made by the Company or Parent concerning this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby in connection with a determination by the Company or the Company Board in accordance with Section 5.5(b) or Section 5.5(d) that a Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably likely to constitute, a Company Superior Proposal or any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, however, that in the case of the preceding clause (i) or (ii), to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, the disclosing party gives the other party reasonable advance notice of (including contents of) its intended press release or other announcement, and (b) to the extent the content of any press release or other announcement has been previously approved and made in accordance with this Section 5.8, no separate approval shall be required in respect of such content to the extent such content is substantially replicated in a subsequent press release or other announcement or substantially consistent with a previously approved press release or announcement.

Section 5.9. Intellectual Property Matters. The Company shall, prior to the Closing use all reasonable efforts to ensure that title in all Company Registered IP is recorded in the name of the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and to the extent that any such Company Registered IP is recorded in any governmental registry in the name of any Person other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or there are outstanding encumbrances of any type against such Company Registered IP, use all reasonable efforts to obtain appropriate assignments, discharges or other documents intended to place record ownership in the name of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and/or effect the discharge prior to the Closing, as applicable. Without limiting Section 5.1(o), the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that all maintenance, annuity and other fees and all filings necessary to assure the continued enjoyment of any issued Company Registered IP, and all amendments, responses to office actions, issue fees and other fees and filings necessary to maintain the pendency of and pursue the prosecution of any pending applications, including the filing of continuation applications, have been and will be paid or filed on a timely basis through the Closing.

Section 5.10. Employee Matters.

(a) For the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the earlier of (x) the date that is twelve (12) months following the Effective Time and (y) the date on which the employment of an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who continues his or her employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates following the Effective Time (each, a “Continuing Employee”) terminates, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates shall provide each Continuing Employee with (i) an annual base salary, at least equal to the annual base salary, provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) cash bonus and cash incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than the cash bonus and cash incentive opportunities provided to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Affiliates, and (iii) employee benefits that are no less favorable (in the aggregate) to the employee benefits (including severance benefits but excluding for such purposes any equity or equity-related awards, and any defined benefit pension benefits) provided to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Affiliates.

(b) If the Closing occurs (i) prior to the completion of the 2018 fiscal year or (ii) after the completion of the 2018 fiscal year but prior to the payment of bonuses with respect to such fiscal year, Parent or its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) shall pay an annual bonus under the applicable bonus plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of the 2018 fiscal year to each eligible employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries based on actual performance levels as of the date of this Agreement, extrapolated through the last day of the 2018 fiscal year, which payment shall be made at the time such bonuses would ordinarily be paid to eligible employees by the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of such plans and in compliance with Section 409A of the Code; provided that if such employee is terminated by the Company or its Subsidiaries without cause prior to the payment date, such bonus shall be paid on such employee’s termination date. If the Closing occurs during the 2019 fiscal year, Parent or its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) shall pay a pro-rated annual bonus under the applicable bonus plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of the portion of the 2019 fiscal year that occurs prior to the Closing Date to each eligible employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries based on target level performance through the Closing Date, which payment will be made at the time such bonuses would ordinarily be paid by the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of such plans, but in no event later than the end of the first quarter of 2020 or such earlier date as may be required to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(c) Parent agrees that each Continuing Employee shall, as of the Effective Time, receive full credit for service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and benefit accrual under the employee benefit plans, programs and policies of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates in which such Continuing Employee becomes a participant (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any defined benefit pension plan); provided, however, that nothing herein shall result in the duplication of any benefits for the same

period of service. With respect to each health or welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates for the benefit of Continuing Employees (including any medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefit plans), Parent shall (i) cause to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements or required physical examinations, actively-at-work requirements and the application of any pre-existing condition limitations under such plan to the extent such were waived or satisfied under the comparable health or welfare benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) cause each Continuing Employee to be given credit under such plan for all amounts paid (or otherwise deemed paid) by such Continuing Employee under any similar Benefit Plan for the plan year that includes the Effective Time for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plans maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs; provided, however, that Parent’s obligations under this clause (ii) shall be subject to its receipt of all necessary information, from either the Company or such Continuing Employee, related to such amounts paid by such Continuing Employee.

(d) Unless otherwise directed in writing by Parent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall terminate, effective as of at least one (1) day prior to the Closing Date, any and all Benefit Plans intended to include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement (each, a “Company 401(k) Plan”). No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Parent with evidence that the Company has taken action to terminate each Company 401(k) Plan (effective as of no later than one (1) day prior to the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board, as the case may be. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.10 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no Continuing Employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 5.10 shall create such rights in any such Persons. Nothing herein shall (i) guarantee employment for any period of time or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time and for any reason; (ii) require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to continue any Benefit Plans, or other employee benefit plans or arrangements or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; or (iii) amend any Benefit Plans or other employee benefit plans or arrangements.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take all such steps as may be reasonably necessary or advisable (to the extent permitted under applicable Law and no-action letters issued by the SEC) to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative Securities with respect to Company Common Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 5.13. Repayment and Termination of Existing Credit Agreement. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a draft of, and on or prior to the Closing Date, an executed copy of, a customary payoff letter from the agents under the Existing Credit Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent relating to the repayment in full of all obligations thereunder or secured thereby, the termination of all commitments in connection therewith and the release of all Liens securing the obligations thereunder (the “Payoff Letter”). The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent (or the agent under the Existing Credit Agreement, in the case of prepayment and termination notices) on or prior to the Closing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, all the documents, filings and notices required for the termination of commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement and the release of all Liens securing the obligations thereunder, including the filing of UCC releases, termination of control agreements, and delivery of possessory collateral, which shall in each case be subject to the occurrence of the Closing and the repayment in full of all obligations then outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement. At the Closing, Parent shall pay or shall cause to be paid, in full and in immediately available funds, any and all amounts outstanding and then due and payable under the Existing Credit Agreement in accordance with the Payoff Letter.

Section 5.14. Stock Exchange Delisting; Deregistration.

The Company shall not cause the Company Common Stock to be delisted from NASDAQ prior to the Effective Time. If the Surviving Corporation is required to file any quarterly or annual report by a filing deadline that is imposed by the Exchange Act which falls on a date within the ten (10) days following the Closing Date, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent at or prior to the Closing a substantially final draft of any such annual or quarterly report reasonably likely to be required to be filed during such period.

Section 5.15. State Takeover Laws. If any state takeover statute becomes or is deemed to become applicable to the Company or the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then the Company Board shall take any and all actions within its control as are necessary to render such statutes inapplicable to the foregoing.

Section 5.16. Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall give Parent notice as soon as possible of, and the opportunity to participate in (subject to a customary joint defense agreement), but not control, the defense or settlement of, any stockholder litigation against the Company and/or its directors or executive officers relating to or in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether commenced prior to or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Company agrees that it shall not settle or offer to compromise or settle any such litigation commenced prior to or after the date of this Agreement against the Company or any of its directors or executive officers relating to or in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

In addition, following the occurrence of any event that would require an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under any Convertible Note Indenture, the Company shall promptly provide Parent written notice accurately setting out (i) the updated Conversion Rate for each Convertible Note Indenture and (ii) the number of Additional Shares (as defined in the applicable Convertible Note Indenture), if any, by which such Conversion Rate will be increased upon the occurrence of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change (as defined in the applicable Convertible Note Indenture), in each case, as adjusted to reflect all events that have occurred through the date on which such update is provided that would result in an adjustment pursuant to the terms of the applicable Convertible Note Indenture.

(b) The Company shall provide Parent and its counsel reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates, written or verbal responses to any substantive inquiries from holders of the Convertible Notes or other documents or instruments deliverable pursuant to or in connection with the Convertible Note Indentures prior to the dispatch or making thereof, and the Company shall promptly respond to any reasonable questions from, and reflect any reasonable comments made by, Parent or its counsel with respect thereto prior to the dispatch or making thereof.

(ii) if any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued or entered any Order after the date of this Agreement or any Law shall have been enacted or promulgated after the date of this Agreement that has the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger or other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and in the case of such an Order, such Order shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to a party if the failure of such party to perform or comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect has been the principal cause of or principally resulted in the issuance of such Order; or

(iii) if the Company Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained upon a vote taken thereon at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting duly convened therefor or at any adjournment or postponement thereof at which a vote on the adoption of this Agreement was taken.

(i) if Parent or Merger Sub shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (A) would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.3(a) or Section 6.3(b) and (B) is not capable of being cured by Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, by the Termination Date or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured by Parent or Merger Sub on or before the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) the date that is thirty (30) calendar days following the Company’s delivery of written notice to Parent of such breach or failure to perform; provided, however, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(c)(i) if the Company is then in material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement so as to result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.2(b); or

(ii) at any time prior to receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, in order for the Company to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Company Superior Proposal to the extent permitted by, and subject to the applicable terms and conditions of, Section 5.5(d); provided, however, that immediately prior to or simultaneously with such termination, the Company pays to Parent the Company Termination Fee (it being understood that the Company may enter into such definitive written agreement simultaneously with such termination of this Agreement).

(ii) if (A) the Company Board shall have made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or (B) the Company or the Company Board, as applicable, shall have materially breached any of its obligations under Section 5.5(a).

Section 7.2. Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is terminated and the Merger abandoned pursuant to Section 7.1, written notice thereof shall be given by the terminating party to the other party, specifying the provisions hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and of no effect without liability on the part of any party hereto, and all rights and obligations of any party hereto shall cease; provided, however, that no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any

liability or damages resulting from any material and intentional breach of this Agreement or fraud, in which case, the aggrieved party shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity; and provided, further, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement, this Section 7.2, Section 7.3, and Article VIII shall survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1. For purposes of this Agreement, “material and intentional breach” shall mean an action or omission taken or omitted to be taken that the breaching party intentionally takes (or fails to take) and knows would, or knows would reasonably be expected to, cause a material breach of this Agreement. The failure of Parent or Merger Sub, for any reason, to have sufficient cash available on the date that the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall constitute a material and intentional breach of this Agreement.

Section 7.3. Termination Fees.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated by:

(i) (A) Parent pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(i) on the basis of a breach of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or (B) either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(b)(iii) and in any such termination under clauses (A) or (B), (1) prior to such termination, a Company Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement has been publicly disclosed and not publicly withdrawn at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Company Stockholders’ Meeting in the case of termination pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(iii) or is otherwise known to the Company Board and not withdrawn (publicly, if publicly disclosed) prior to such termination in the case of termination pursuant to either Section 7.1(d)(i) or Section 7.1(b)(i), and (2) within twelve (12) months after any such termination under clauses (A) or (B), any Company Acquisition Proposal is consummated or the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal (regardless of when or whether such transaction is consummated) (provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 7.3(a)(i), the references to “fifteen percent (15%)” in the definition of Company Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%)”);

(ii) the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(ii); or

(iii) Parent pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii);

then, in any such case, the Company shall pay to Parent the Company Termination Fee.

Any payments required to be made under this Section 7.3(a) shall be made by wire transfer of same-day funds to the account or accounts designated by Parent, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, on the same day as the earlier of any consummation of, or entry into a definitive agreement with respect to, the transaction contemplated therein, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, immediately prior to or simultaneously with such termination and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c) The Company acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) without these agreements, Parent would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 7.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the payment of any amount set forth in this Section 7.3, the Company shall pay Parent its costs and expenses in connection with such suit (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), together with interest on such amount at an annual rate equal to 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 such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

Section 7.4. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the parties hereto in writing at any time before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that after the Company Stockholder Approval has been obtained, there shall not be (i) any amendment that by applicable Law or in accordance with the applicable rules of any stock exchange requires further approval by the stockholders of the Company without such further approval of such stockholders nor (ii) any amendment or change not permitted under applicable Law.

Section 7.5. Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, subject to applicable Law, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance by any other party hereto with any agreement or condition of such party contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall only be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Section 8.4. Interpretation; Certain Definitions.

(a) The parties hereto have participated collectively in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted collectively by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

(b) The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References to articles, sections, paragraphs, exhibits, annexes and schedules are to the articles, sections and paragraphs of, and exhibits, annexes and schedules to, this Agreement, unless otherwise specified, and the table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Words describing the singular number shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa, words denoting any gender shall be deemed to include all genders, words denoting natural persons shall be deemed to include business entities and vice versa, and references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” The phrases “the date of this Agreement” and “the date hereof” and terms or phrases of similar import shall be deemed to refer to August 29, 2018, unless the context requires otherwise. References to any information or document being “made available” or “furnished” and words of similar import shall include such information or document having been posted to the “Project Gladiator 2018” online data room hosted on behalf of the Company by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ DatasiteOne by 3:45 p.m. New York City time on the date of this Agreement. Terms defined in the text of this Agreement have such meaning throughout this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated in this Agreement, and all terms defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. Any Law defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor Laws (provided, however, that for purposes of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that are made as of a specific date or dates, references to any statute shall be deemed to refer to such statute, as amended, and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case, as of such date). All references to “dollars” or “$” refer to currency of the United States.

Section 8.5. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Merger be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 8.6. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, except that Merger Sub may assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to one or more direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent, or a combination thereof, so long as such assignment would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect and no such assignment shall release Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, from any of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 8.6 shall be null and void.

Section 8.7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits, annexes and appendices hereto) constitutes, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter, the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 8.8. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that it is specifically intended that (a) the D&O Indemnified Parties (with respect to Section 5.6 and this Section 8.8 from and after the Effective Time) are intended third-party beneficiaries hereof and (b) from and after the Effective Time, the holders of other Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards are intended third-party beneficiaries of Article II.

Section 8.9. Governing Law. This Agreement and all Proceedings (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 8.10. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that any party hereto does not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in

accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breaches such provisions. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, prior to any valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Sub, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that, prior to any valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1, it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

Section 8.11. Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby, with respect to any legal claim or Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (i) expressly and irrevocably submits, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware), (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such courts, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any claim or Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except in such courts and (iv) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any claim or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees that a final and nonappealable judgment in any Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

(b) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the service of process in any claim or Proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by any other party hereto made by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to its address as specified in or pursuant to Section 8.3, and such service of process shall be sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such party in such claim or Proceeding and shall otherwise constitute effective and binding service in every respect.

Section 8.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall together be considered one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 8.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF PARENT, MERGER SUB AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN ANY OF THEM DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT, MERGER SUB OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
