(iii)    Unregistered Transferees. If any Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, then the Merger Consideration may be paid to such a transferee so long as (A) the surrendered Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share is accompanied by all documents reasonably required by Parent to evidence and effect that transfer and (B) the Person requesting such payment (x) pays any applicable transfer Taxes or other Taxes required by reason of payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares or (y) establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent and the Paying Agent that all such transfer Taxes have already been paid or are not applicable.

(iv)    No Other Rights. Until surrendered in accordance with this Section 2.2(c), each Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) and each Book-Entry Share shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, subject to the Surviving Corporation’s obligation to pay any dividends or other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which may have been authorized by the Company and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time. Any Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share and, in the case of a Certificate, the shares of Common Stock formerly represented by it.

If any Certificate is lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by the Surviving Corporation, the execution and delivery by such Person of a customary indemnity agreement to provide indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall pay the Merger Consideration to such Person in respect of the shares of Common Stock represented by such Certificate.

(e)    No Further Transfers. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of the shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately before the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for transfer, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II.

(f)    Required Withholding. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement such amounts as they are

6

required to deduct or withhold therefrom under the Code, or any applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid to the appropriate taxing authorities, those amounts shall be treated as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made for all purposes under this Agreement.

(g)    No Liability. None of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for any amount properly paid to a public official under any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

Any such investment shall be for the benefit, and at the risk, of Parent, and any interest or other income resulting from such investment shall be for the benefit of Parent; provided, that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration payable hereunder and Parent shall promptly provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to promptly provide, additional funds to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of Common Stock, Company Options and Company Stock Awards immediately prior to the Effective Time in the amount of any such losses to the extent necessary to satisfy the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Article II.

(i)    Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered by the Paying Agent to Parent upon demand.

2.3    Company Options and Company Stock Awards.

(a)    Except as otherwise agreed in writing after the date hereof by Parent and the applicable holder thereof, the Company shall take all necessary and appropriate actions so that, at the Effective Time, each option to acquire shares of Common Stock under the Company Equity Plan (each, a “Company Option”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder of that Company Option, shall be canceled and each

7

Company Option shall be converted into the right to receive from Parent or the Surviving Corporation promptly following the Effective Time an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Option Consideration (as defined below) multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of such Company Option. The Company Board or the compensation committee thereof shall take all necessary and appropriate actions so that all Company Options shall be vested in full as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. “Option Consideration” means the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the per share exercise or purchase price of the applicable Company Option at the time of calculation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise or purchase price of the applicable Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be cancelled without any payment being made in respect thereof.

(b)    Except as otherwise agreed in writing after the date hereof by Parent and the applicable holder thereof or as otherwise provided below, each share of restricted Common Stock that vests solely based on continued service (each, a “Company Restricted Stock Award”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder of that Company Restricted Stock Award, shall be, at the Effective Time, converted into the right to receive from Parent or the Surviving Corporation the Merger Consideration per share in accordance with Section 2.1(c).

(d)    Except as otherwise agreed in writing after the date hereof by Parent and the applicable holder thereof or as otherwise provided below, each award of restricted stock units payable in shares of Common Stock or whose value is determined with reference to the value of shares of Common Stock (“Company RSU Awards” and collectively with the Company Restricted Stock Awards and Company Performance Stock Awards, the “Company Stock Awards”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder of that Company RSU Award, shall be, at the Effective Time, converted into the right to receive a cash award determined by multiplying the Merger Consideration by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each Company RSU Award. The Company Board or the compensation committee thereof shall take all necessary and appropriate actions so that all Company Stock Awards shall be fully vested and all restricted periods shall lapse thereon in full as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

8

(e)    Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3, the Company shall take all necessary and appropriate actions so that all Company Options, as well as all Company RSU Awards, shall be canceled and the Company Equity Plan shall terminate at the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, no holder of any Company Option or any Company Stock Award will have any right to acquire any equity securities of the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation as a result of such holder’s Company Options or Company Stock Awards.

(f)    Not later than ten (10) days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall mail to each holder of Company Options and Company Stock Awards a letter describing the treatment of and payment for such Company Options or Company Stock Awards pursuant to this Section 2.3 and providing instructions for use in obtaining payment for such Company Options or Company Stock Awards (which instructions shall provide that the cash payable to such holder of Company Options or Company Stock Awards pursuant to this Section 2.3 will be made by check or wire transfer in accordance with the holder’s instructions on file with the Company in respect of payroll and, if no such instructions are applicable to such holder, may be, at the election of such holder, mailed to such holder or transferred to such holder by wire transfer).

(g)    At the first regularly scheduled payroll payment date after Closing, the Surviving Corporation shall cause its payroll agent to mail a check (or transfer by wire transfer) to each applicable holder of a Company Option or Company Stock Award, in such amount due and payable to such holder pursuant to Section 2.3(a) in respect of such Company Option or Company Stock Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the payments contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, Parent and the Surviving Corporation may direct the Paying Agent to pay the Surviving Corporation (or its designees) for (but only to the extent of) any amounts the Surviving Corporation elects to pay to each holder of a Company Option or Company Stock Award in respect of the consideration payable therefor plus any amounts deducted and withheld with respect to any such amounts; in this event, Parent and Surviving Corporation will provide the necessary funds to the Paying Agent to effectuate the payment to holders of such Company Options or Company Stock Awards.

(h)    Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan. With respect to the Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (i) participation in the Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall be limited to those individuals who are participants in the Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan on the date of this Agreement; (ii) no new Offering Period (as defined in the Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan), other than the Offering Period in effect as of the date of this Agreement, shall be authorized, continued or commenced on or after the date of this Agreement; (iii) participants in the Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan may not increase their payroll deductions or purchase elections from those in effect on the date of this Agreement;

At the Effective Time, (A) all Dissenting Shares shall be canceled and cease to exist and (B) the holders of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under the FBCA.

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.4(a), if any holder of Dissenting Shares effectively withdraws or loses such appraisal rights (through failure to perfect such appraisal rights or otherwise), then that holder’s shares (i) shall be deemed no longer to be Dissenting Shares and (ii) shall be treated as if they had been converted automatically at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon surrender of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) formerly representing such shares or, in the case of Book-Entry Shares, upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal, in each case in accordance with Section 2.2.

(c)    The Company shall give Parent (i) notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of Common Stock, any withdrawals of such demands and any other instrument served on the Company under the FBCA and (ii) the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands for appraisal. Except to the extent required by applicable Law, the Company shall not offer to make or make any payment with respect to any such demands for appraisal or otherwise settle any such demands without the prior written consent of Parent.

31

contributions to Parent under the Debt Financing (whether expressed in terms of minimum value or percentage of shares), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, the Rollover Investors have committed to contribute to Parent the amount of shares of Common Stock set forth therein (the “Rollover Investment”), and (y) a schedule setting forth each Rollover Investor, the number of shares of the Company beneficially owned by and over which such Rollover Investor holds sole voting and dispositive power, and an indication of whether such shares of the Company are held directly or indirectly by such Rollover Investor, and (ii) executed debt commitment letters and related term sheets from ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association (the “ABL Commitment Letter”) and Pathlight Capital LP (the “TL Commitment Letter” and together with the ABL Commitment Letter, the “Debt Commitment Letters” or the “Financing Commitments”) (▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association and Pathlight Capital LP, the “Lenders”) pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, the Lenders have committed to provide Parent and/or Merger Sub with financing in the amounts described therein, the proceeds of which may be used to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Debt Financing” or the “Financing”). As of the date hereof, each of the Financing Commitments and the Rollover Letters is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent or Merger Sub and, to the Knowledge of the Parent, the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions. As of the date hereof, each of the Financing Commitments and the Rollover Letters is in full force and effect, and none of the Financing Commitments or the Rollover Letters has been withdrawn, rescinded or terminated or otherwise amended or modified in any respect. As of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of the Parent, neither Parent nor Merger Sub is in breach of any of the material terms or conditions set forth in any of the Financing Commitments or the Rollover Letters. As of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of Parent with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, there is no fact or occurrence existing on the date hereof that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to (A) make any of the assumptions or any of the statements set forth in the Financing Commitments or the Rollover Letters inaccurate, (B) result in any of the conditions in the Financing Commitments or the Rollover Letters not being satisfied, (C) cause any of the Financing Commitments or the Rollover Letters to be ineffective or (D) otherwise result in the Financing not being available, or the Rollover Investment not being made, in each case, on a timely basis in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the date hereof, neither the Rollover Investors nor any Lender has notified Parent or Merger Sub of its intention to terminate any Financing Commitment or not to provide the Financing, and none of the Rollover Investors has notified Parent or Merger Sub of its intention to terminate any Rollover Letter or not to make the Rollover Investment. Parent has not, without the prior written consent of the Company, amended, modified, supplemented or waived any of the conditions or contingencies to funding contained in any Financing Commitment (including definitive agreements related thereto) or to the Rollover Investment contained in any Rollover Letter, or any other provision of, or remedies under, any Financing Commitment (including definitive agreements related thereto) or any Rollover Letter (except for any increases in the amount of funds available thereunder

32

or the addition of Financing Sources in accordance with the terms thereof, or other relevant entities who did not execute a Financing Commitment or a Rollover Letter as of the date of this Agreement or as otherwise expressly permitted by Section 5.12(a)). Assuming (1) the Financing is funded in accordance with its terms and conditions, (2) the Rollover Investment is made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Rollover Letters and (3) the satisfaction of the conditions to the Company’s obligation to consummate the Merger set forth in Section 6.3(a), the net proceeds from the Financing will, together with the Rollover Investment and other funds available to Parent, be sufficient to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the payment by Parent and Merger Sub of the Merger Consideration, any fees and expenses of or payable by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, and any related repayment or refinancing of any indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Parent or Merger Sub has paid in full any and all commitment or other fees required by any Financing Commitment that are due as of the date hereof, and will pay, after the date hereof, all such commitments and fees as they become due. There are no side letters, understandings or other agreements or arrangements relating to the Financing (except for customary fee letters and engagement letters which do not contain any additional conditions to closing or other agreements relating to the availability of the full amount of the Financing, and a complete copy of the fee letter has been made available to the Company with customary redactions of fee amounts, pricing caps, “market flex,” other economic terms and certain other terms, none of which redacted provisions would adversely affect the conditionality or aggregate principal amount of the Financing) or the Rollover Investment to which Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates are a party that relate to the amount, availability or conditions of the Financing or the Rollover Investment, other than the Financing Commitments and the Rollover Letters. There are no conditions precedent related to the funding of the full amount of the Financing, other than as explicitly set forth in the Financing Commitments, and there are no conditions precedent related to the contribution of the full amount of the Rollover Investment, other than as explicitly set forth in the Rollover Letters. Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions to the Company’s obligation to consummate the Merger set forth in Section 6.3(a), neither Parent nor Merger Sub has any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a reasonably timely basis any conditions to the funding of the full amount of the Financing or the contribution of the full amount of the Rollover Investment, or that the Financing will not be available to, or that the Rollover Investment will not be contributed to, Parent or Merger Sub on the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, it is not a condition to Closing under this Agreement, nor to the consummation of the Merger, for Parent or Merger Sub to obtain the Financing, the Rollover Investment or any alternative financing.

(b)    Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their Affiliates has entered into any Contract, arrangement or understanding with any bank or investment bank or other potential provider of debt or equity financing that would prevent or hinder such provider from providing or seeking to provide such financing to any third party in connection with a transaction relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries

33

(including in connection with the making of any Takeover Proposal), in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their Affiliates has caused or induced any Person to take any action that, if taken by Parent and/or Merger Sub, would be a breach of, or would cause to be untrue, any of the representations in this Section 4.6(b).

4.7    Solvency. On and as of the Closing Date, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Financing and any alternative financing (including any financing to be issued or incurred in lieu of any bridge facility in any Debt Commitment Letter) permitted by this Agreement, the payment of the Merger Consideration, the incurrence of indebtedness in connection with the Debt Financing, and the repayment or refinancing of debt as contemplated herein and in the Financing Commitments, and assuming (i) the Company is Solvent immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) the satisfaction of the conditions to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger as set forth herein, or the waiver of such conditions and (iii) the satisfaction of the conditions to the Company’s obligation to consummate the Merger set forth in Section 6.3(a), Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Corporation’s Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be Solvent.

4.8    Litigation. As of the date of this Agreement, there is no Legal Action pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened in writing against Parent or any of its Affiliates before any Governmental Authority that would or seeks to materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Merger or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the date of this Agreement, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates is subject to any Order of, or, to the Knowledge of Parent, continuing investigation by, any Governmental Authority, or any Order of any Governmental Authority that would or seeks to materially delay or prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.9    No Regulatory Impediment. There is no material fact relating to Parent or any of its Affiliates’ respective businesses, operations, financial condition or legal status, including any officer’s, director’s or current employee’s status, that would reasonably be expected to impair the ability of the parties to this Agreement to obtain, on a timely basis, any authorization, consent, Order, declaration or approval of, or ability to contract with, any Governmental Authority or third party necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.10    Absence of Certain Arrangements. Other than this Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Rollover Letters and those other agreements contemplated hereby, there are no Contracts, undertakings, commitments, agreements or obligations or understandings between Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any member of the Company’s management or the Company Board or any of their respective Affiliates (including any of the Principal Shareholders), on the other hand, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the operations of the Company after the Effective Time.

4.11    Brokers. The Company will not be responsible for any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission to any broker, finder or investment banker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub, other than any such fee that is conditioned upon consummation of the Merger.

34

4.12    Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have delivered to the Company a limited guarantee of Kingswood Capital Opportunities Fund I, L.P. and Kingswood Capital Opportunities Fund I-A, L.P. (collectively, the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Company, dated the date hereof (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Guarantee”). The Guarantee is in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantors, enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions, and has not been amended, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect. As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default on the part of the Guarantors under the Guarantee.

4.13    Proxy Statement; Schedule 13E-3.

Nothing herein shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to disclose information to the extent such disclosure would, in the Company’s good faith opinion after consultation with legal counsel, (x) result in a waiver of attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or similar privilege or (y) violate any applicable Law or any Material Contract.

Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that if any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, acting on their behalf, takes any action that would constitute a breach of this Section 5.4, such action shall constitute a breach of this Section 5.4 by the Company.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Special Committee and the Company Board shall be permitted (but only upon the express written request of the counterparty), to the extent it determines in good faith, after consultation with

42

outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties, to modify, waive, amend or release any existing standstill obligations owed by any Person to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries only to the extent necessary to allow a confidential Takeover Proposal to be made to the Special Committee or the Company Board; provided that the Company promptly notifies Parent of any such modification, waiver, amendment or release.

(c)    From and after the date of this Agreement, (i) the Company shall advise Parent orally and in writing within 24 hours of the receipt of any (x) Takeover Proposal, (y) any written requests, inquiries, proposals or offers received, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated, with respect to any Takeover Proposal, or (z) any inquiry, offer or proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions thereof and the identity of the party making such Takeover Proposal and including copies of any written documents or material correspondence delivered in connection therewith, and (ii) the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a current basis with respect to the status and material terms of any such Takeover Proposal and shall promptly notify the Company of any material modifications to the financial or other material terms and conditions of such Takeover Proposal, in each case within one Business Day after (but not including) the date of the Company’s receipt thereof.

(d)    Except as set forth in Section 5.4(e) and Section 5.4(f)), the Company Board and the Special Committee shall not (i) withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in any manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose to do so, (ii) approve, endorse, find advisable or recommend a Takeover Proposal or publicly propose to do so or (iii) approve, recommend or allow the Company to enter into a Contract relating to a Takeover Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement).

(e)    Notwithstanding Section 5.4(d), the Special Committee or the Company Board may, at any time before obtaining the Requisite Company Vote and in response to a Superior Proposal received by the Special Committee or the Company Board after the date of this Agreement, if the Special Committee or the Company Board has concluded in good faith, (A) following consultation with its outside legal counsel, that its failure to withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to shareholders under applicable Law, and (B) after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors, that such Takeover Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or terminate this Agreement to enter into a Contract, in accordance with Article VII with respect to such Superior Proposal, but only if:

(i)    the Company shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 5.4;

(ii)    the Company shall have first provided prior written notice to Parent that it is prepared to terminate this Agreement to enter into a Contract with respect to such

43

Superior Proposal, which notice shall include the material terms and conditions of the transaction that constitutes such Superior Proposal and the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal, and to the extent provided to the Company, a copy of any material Contract evidencing or relating to the Superior Proposal; and

(iii)    Parent does not make, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such notice, a proposal that the Special Committee or the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor, causes the Takeover Proposal that constituted a Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; provided, that the Company (acting through the Special Committee) shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) during such period with respect to such proposal to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that the Superior Proposal described in such notice ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal.

(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time before obtaining the Requisite Company Vote, if any event, fact, development, circumstance or occurrence (but specifically excluding any Takeover Proposal or Superior Proposal) that materially improves the business, assets, operations or prospects of the Company or its Subsidiaries that was not known (and should not reasonably have been known) to the Special Committee and the Company Board as of the date hereof, becomes known to the Special Committee and the Company Board after the date of this Agreement (an “Intervening Event”) (provided, that in no event shall the following constitute, or be taken into account in determining the existence of, an Intervening Event: (A) the fact alone that the Company meets or exceeds any internal or published budgets, plan, forecasts or projections for any period, or (B) any changes alone after the date of this Agreement in the market price or trading volume of Company Common Stock) and the Special Committee or the Company Board has concluded in good faith, following consultation with its outside legal counsel, that its failure to withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to shareholders under applicable Law, then the Company Board may withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent but only if:

(i)    the Company shall have first provided prior written notice to Parent that the Special Committee or the Company Board intends to withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent, which notice shall include a description in reasonable detail of the Intervening Event and the Company Board’s reasons for taking such action; and

(ii)    Parent does not, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such notice, propose revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in response to such Intervening Event that the Special Committee or the Company Board determines, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, obviate the need for the Special Committee or the Company Board to withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation, and the Company (acting through the Special Committee) shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) during such period with respect to such proposed revisions.

44

(g)    Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from complying with Rules 14a-9, 14d-9, 14e-2 and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder or making any required disclosure to the Company’s shareholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Special Committee or the Company Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law or such disclosure is otherwise required under applicable Law; provided, that this Section 5.4(g) shall not be deemed to permit the Company Board to (or the Special Committee to recommend that the Company Board) take any action prohibited by Section 5.4(d) except to the extent permitted by Sections 5.4(e) - 5.4(f). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the issuance of a “stop, look and listen” statement (or other similar statement pursuant to any requirement of applicable Law) in and of itself constitute a change, withdrawal, modification or amendment of the Company Board Recommendation under this Agreement.

5.5    Company Proxy Statement; Schedule 13E-3; Company Shareholders Meeting.

Parent and Merger Sub shall cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Company Proxy Statement and the Schedule 13E-3. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each of Parent and Merger Sub will furnish to the Company the information relating to it and its Affiliates required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be set forth in the Company Proxy Statement, that is customarily included in proxy statements or Rule 13E-3 transaction statements on Schedule 13E-3 prepared in connection with transactions of the type contemplated by this Agreement or that is reasonably requested by the Company, and (ii) prior to the filing with the SEC or the mailing to the Company’s shareholders of the Company Proxy Statement or the filing with the SEC of the Schedule 13E-3, the Company shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on, and the Company shall

(e)    Following the clearance of the Company Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 by the SEC, the Company shall call and hold the Company Shareholders Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Company Vote. Subject to

46

Section 5.4, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit or cause to be solicited from its shareholders proxies in favor of adoption of this Agreement; provided, that the Company (after consultation with Parent) may postpone, recess or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting: (i) with the consent of Parent, (ii) for the absence of a quorum, (iii) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and distribution of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) is necessary or advisable under applicable Laws and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated to and reviewed by the Company’s shareholders prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting (iv) to allow additional solicitation of votes in order to obtain the Requisite Company Vote, or (v) if the Company has provided a written notice to Parent pursuant to Section 5.4(e)(ii) or Section 5.4(f)(i) and the latest deadline contemplated by Section 5.4(e)5.4(e) or 5.4(f) with respect to such notice, as the case may be, has not been reached.

5.6    Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a)    Until the end of the current plan year for any Company Benefit Plan (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries to, provide to individuals who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, were employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and, subject to Section 5.6(e) below, continue to be employees of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time (each, a “Continuing Employee”) benefits under Company Benefit Plans (but not including equity and equity-based awards or plans) that for such individual are substantially comparable in the aggregate to such benefits being provided to Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b)    Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates to, honor all contracts with employees related to severance, subject to any amendment or termination thereof that may be permitted by Parent and except as provided herein; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent the amendment or termination of any specific plan, program policy, agreement or arrangement, or interfere with Parent’s, the Surviving Corporation’s or any of their respective Affiliates’ rights or obligations to make such changes, in each case as are necessary to comply with applicable Law.

(c)    As of and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates to, recognize, without duplication, credit for purposes or vesting, eligibility to participate and for calculating severance and vacation entitlements (which shall, for the avoidance of doubt, exclude benefit accruals under any qualified or non-qualified defined benefit pension plan) for each such Employee’s years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries (and their predecessor entities) prior to the Effective Time (“Prior Service”) (to the extent the Company recognized such service for corresponding benefits) under any employee compensation, incentive and benefit (including vacation and severance) plans, programs, policies and arrangements maintained for the benefit of Employees as of and after the Effective Time by Parent, its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation

47

(each, a “Parent Plan”). With respect to each Parent Plan that is a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), Parent and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause there to be waived any pre-existing condition or eligibility limitations (to the extent waived, satisfied or inapplicable under the corresponding plan maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time) and (ii) give effect, in determining any deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to claims incurred and amounts paid by, and amounts reimbursed to, Employees under similar plans maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d)    With respect to any accrued but unused vacation time to which any Employee is entitled pursuant to the vacation policy or individual agreement or other arrangement applicable to such Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates to, allow such Employee to use such accrued vacation pursuant to the terms of Parent’s or the Surviving Corporation’s vacation policy, as in effect from time to time.

(e)    Without limiting Section 8.11, nothing in this Section 5.6, whether express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any current or former employee of the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates (including any Employee), any rights or remedies including any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 5.6, or restrict the ability of Parent, Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to terminate the employment or service of any Person; (ii) be construed to modify, amend or create any employee benefit plan of the Company, Parent, Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, (iii) limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, Contract, policy or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them; or (iv) create any third-party beneficiary rights or obligations in any Person (including any Employee) other than the parties to this Agreement.

5.7    Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a)    For a period of six years commencing at the Effective Time (provided, that such period shall be extended with respect to all unresolved claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party as of the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claims are finally resolved), Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation now existing in favor of any present or former director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the fiduciaries of any Company Employee Benefits (the “Indemnified Parties”) as provided in (i) the Organizational Documents of the Company, or (ii) agreements between an Indemnified Party and the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to survive the Merger and to continue in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years after the Effective Time or, if longer, for such period

48

as is set forth in any applicable agreement with an Indemnified Party in effect on the date of this Agreement. In addition, for a period of six years commencing at the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) cause the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation provisions set forth in the Organizational Documents of the Company as of the date of this Agreement.

(b)    For a period of six years commencing at the Effective Time (provided that if any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Party delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.7(b), then such period shall be extended with respect to the claim asserted in such notice until such claims are finally resolved), the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless all Indemnified Parties to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law with respect to all acts and omissions arising out of or relating to their services as directors or officers of the Company, its Subsidiaries or another Person, if such Indemnified Party is or was serving as a director, officer or employee of such other Person at the request of the Company, or fiduciaries of Company Employee Benefits, whether asserted or claimed at, after or before the Effective Time (including in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise). If any Indemnified Party is or becomes involved in any Legal Action in connection with any matter subject to indemnification hereunder, then the Surviving Corporation shall advance as incurred any costs or expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or Liabilities (“Damages”) arising out of or incurred in connection with such Legal Action, subject to the Surviving Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party to repay such Damages if it is ultimately determined under applicable Law that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified. In the event of any such Legal Action, (i) each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in the defense of any such Legal Action and (ii) neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Legal Action pending or threatened in writing to which an Indemnified Party is a party (and in respect of which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Legal Action.

(c)    If the Company has not purchased a “tail” policy in compliance with the last sentence of this Section 5.7(c), Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect for at least six years commencing at the Effective Time the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company or policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are no less advantageous with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in

49

connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) so long as Parent and the Surviving Corporation are not required to pay a premium in excess of 250% of the renewal premium paid or payable by the Company in connection with its most recent renewal (such 250% amount being the “Maximum Premium”). If Parent and the Surviving Corporation are unable to obtain the insurance described in the prior sentence for an amount less than or equal to the Maximum Premium, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, jointly and severally, instead obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the arrangements contemplated by this Section 5.7(c), before the Effective Time, the Company shall be entitled to purchase, and at the written request of Parent shall purchase, a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering the matters described in this Section 5.7(c) and, if the Company purchases such a policy before the Effective Time, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation’s obligations under this Section 5.7(c) shall be satisfied so long as Parent and the Surviving Corporation cause such policy to be maintained in effect for a period of six years following the Effective Time, provided that the cost of such policy may not exceed the Maximum Premium.

(d)    The covenants contained in this Section 5.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and legal representatives and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise.

(e)    In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall take all necessary action so that the successors or assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.7.

5.8    Efforts. Unless otherwise indicated by the terms hereof and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with applicable Law, each of the parties to this Agreement shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done and assist and cooperate with the other parties hereto in doing (or causing to be done), all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including by (a) causing the conditions of the Merger set forth in Article VI to be satisfied; (b) (1) obtaining all consents, waivers, approvals, orders and authorizations from Governmental Authorities, and (2) making all registrations, declarations and filings with Governmental Authorities, in each case, that are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; (c) obtaining all consents, waivers and approvals and delivering all notifications pursuant to any Material Contracts (or, if reasonably requested by Parent, other Contracts) in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger; and

50

(d) executing and delivering any Contracts and other instruments that are in each case reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger prior to the Effective Time, in no event shall the Company or its Subsidiaries be required to pay, or otherwise incur any Liability, nor shall it so pay or incur without Parent’s prior written consent, with respect to, any fees (except for customary fees to Governmental Authorities), penalties, material conditions or obligations, including amendments to existing material conditions, or other consideration to obtain any consent or approval required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, agree to any of the foregoing payments, security, conditions or obligations if requested by Parent and effective only upon the consummation of the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Section 5.8 shall not limit the rights of the Company set forth in Section 5.4.

5.9    Consents; Filings; Further Action; Notices.

(a)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with applicable Law, each of Parent and the Company shall, and Parent shall cause each of its Affiliates to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly (i) obtain any consents, approvals or other authorizations, and make any filings and notifications, required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) make any other submissions either required or deemed appropriate by either Parent or the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the FBCA, the Applicable Exchange rules and regulations and any other applicable Law and (iii) take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary, proper or advisable consistent with this Section 5.9 to cause the expiration of the applicable waiting periods, or receipt of required consents, approvals or authorizations, as applicable, under such Laws as soon as reasonably practicable. Parent and the Company shall cooperate and consult with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and notifications, including by providing copies of all relevant documents to the non-filing party and its advisors before filing. No party shall consent to any voluntary extension of any statutory deadline or waiting period or to any voluntary delay of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at the behest of any Governmental Authority without the consent of the other parties to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b)    Each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, promptly inform the other party upon receipt of any material or substantive communication from any Governmental Authority regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If Parent or the Company (or any of their respective Affiliates) receives a request for additional information from any Governmental Authority that is related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then such party shall endeavor in good faith to make, or cause to be made, to the extent practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response to such request. No party shall, or shall permit any of its Affiliates to, participate in any meeting or engage in any material or substantive conversation with any Governmental Authority without giving the other party prior notice of the meeting or conversation and, unless prohibited by such Governmental Authority, the

51

opportunity to attend or participate. Parent shall advise the Company promptly of any understandings, undertakings or agreements (oral or written) which Parent or any of its Affiliates proposes to make or enter into with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any objections that may be asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any antitrust, competition or trade regulatory Law as promptly as practicable.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent shall take, and shall cause its Affiliates to take (and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 5.1 and Section 5.4, the Company and its Affiliates shall be permitted to take, without affecting any representation, warranty, covenant or condition in this Agreement), all action necessary to avoid the entry or to effect the dissolution of, or vacate or lift, any Order which would otherwise have the effect of preventing impairing or delaying the Closing, including (i) selling, licensing, divesting or disposing of or holding separate any entities, assets, Intellectual Property or businesses (including, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries), (ii) terminating, amending or assigning existing relationships or contractual rights and obligations, (iii) changing or modifying any course of conduct regarding future operations, (iv) otherwise taking actions that would limit its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of their respective businesses, assets or rights or interests therein and (v) committing to take any such actions in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) (all of the foregoing a “Divestiture Action”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor its Affiliates shall be required to, and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, take or agree to take or commit to take any Divestiture Action. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall not require the Company or its Subsidiaries to, and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to, take any action with respect to any Order or any applicable Law which would bind the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time or in the event the Merger does not occur.

5.10    Public Announcements. The initial press release concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by the Company and Parent. Following such initial press release, Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements (including any general communications to employees, customers, partners or vendors) about this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Parent nor the Company shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement without prior consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, except (i) to the extent required by applicable Law or Order or the applicable rules of the Applicable Exchange, Parent or the Company may issue such a press release or make such a statement if it has used its reasonable efforts to consult with the other party before issuing any such press release or making any such public statement but has been unable to do so prior to the time such press release or public statement is so required to be issued or made and (ii) that each party may, without complying with the foregoing obligations, may make internal announcements to

52

employees, to the extent that such statements are not inconsistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly or individually by the parties and otherwise in compliance with this Section 5.10 and do not reveal material non-public information regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that Parent’s consent shall not be required, and the Company shall not be required to consult with Parent in connection with, or provide Parent an opportunity to review or comment upon, any press release or other public statement or comment to be issued or made with respect to any Takeover Proposal or with respect to any actions contemplated by Section 5.4(e), Section 5.4(f) or Section 5.4(g). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior consent of the other parties, (a) the Company may communicate with customers, vendors, suppliers, financial analysts, investors and media representatives in a manner consistent with its past practice in compliance with applicable Law, (b) may disseminate the information included in a press release or other document previously approved for external distribution by Parent and (c) this Section 5.10 shall not apply to any disclosure of information concerning this Agreement in connection with any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement.

5.12    Financing Efforts.

(a)    Each of Parent and Merger Sub shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Financing as soon as reasonably practicable on the terms and conditions contained in the Financing Commitments and to consummate the Rollover Investment pursuant to the Rollover Letters in accordance with the terms thereof, including using its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) comply with its obligations under the Financing Commitments and the Rollover Letters, (ii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Financing Commitments on terms and conditions that would not (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing unless the Rollover Investment is increased by a corresponding amount or (B) materially delay the receipt of the Financing or make it materially less likely that the Financing would be received, (iii) satisfy on a reasonably timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent and Merger Sub contained in the Financing Commitments (including definitive agreements related thereto) and the Rollover Letters, including the payment of any commitment, engagement or placement fees required as a condition to the Financing, and (iv) consummate the Financing and the Rollover Investment at or prior to the Closing Date (it being understood that it is not a condition to Closing under this Agreement,

53

nor to the consummation of the Merger, for Parent or Merger Sub to obtain the Financing, the Rollover Investment or any alternative financing). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, take all actions reasonably necessary to (i) maintain in effect each Financing Commitment and each Rollover Letter (it being understood that the Financing Commitments and the Rollover Letters may be replaced or amended as provided below) and (ii) enforce all of its rights under each Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreements relating thereto) and each Rollover Letter (it being agreed that nothing herein shall require the Parent to commence litigation to enforce such rights). Upon request, Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing (including providing the Company with copies of material draft and definitive agreements and other material documents related to the Financing) and the Rollover Investment. Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company notice as promptly as reasonably practicable after obtaining Knowledge thereof (x) of any material breach or default by any party to any of the Financing Commitments, any Rollover Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing of which Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware, (y) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Person with respect to (1) any actual or potential breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any of the Financing Commitments, any Rollover Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing of any provisions of any Financing Commitment, any Rollover Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing or (2) material dispute or disagreement between or among the parties to any of the Financing Commitments, any Rollover Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Closing or to consummate the Rollover Investment or the amount of shares of Common Stock to be contributed prior to Closing, and (z) any other circumstance that would adversely affect the ability of Merger Sub to obtain all or any portion of the Financing or the Rollover Investment on a timely basis. As soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within two (2) Business Days, Parent and Merger Sub shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (x), (y) or (z) of the immediately preceding sentence. Parent shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, amend, modify, supplement or waive any of the conditions or contingencies to funding contained in any Financing Commitment (including definitive agreements related thereto) or to the making of the Rollover Investment contained in any Rollover Letter, or any other provision of, or remedies under, any Financing Commitment (including definitive agreements related thereto) or any Rollover Letter, the effect of which (I) reduces the amount of aggregate cash proceeds available from the Financing unless there is a corresponding increase in the Rollover Investment, (II) would delay, prevent or adversely impact, or, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have the effect of delaying, preventing or adversely impacting, in each case, in any material respect, the funding of the Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Financing) on the Closing Date, or (III) would prevent or adversely impact or delay, or, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have the effect of preventing, adversely impacting, or delaying, in each case, in any

54

material respect the ability of Parent to timely consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the Closing Date (any modification of the type described in clauses (I) through (III), “Restricted Modifications”); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may modify, supplement or amend the Financing Commitments to (i) amend, replace, supplement, or otherwise modify or waive any provision of any Debt Commitment Letter and/or substitute other debt financing for all or a portion of the Financing from the same and/or alternative Financing Sources, so long as such amendments, replacements, supplements or modifications or waivers, or such substitute financing, shall not expand in a material way the conditions precedent contained therein or materially delay the funding of the Debt Financing at Closing, (ii) reflect the exercise of any “market flex” provisions in connection therewith, and (iii) add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents, other agents or similar entities that have not executed the Financing Commitments as of the date hereof or to increase the amount of funds available thereunder, and Parent or Merger Sub shall promptly deliver to the Company copies of any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement or replacement. In the event all conditions applicable to a Financing Commitment and/or a Rollover Letter have been satisfied, Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Lenders and the Rollover Investors to fund the Financing and make the Rollover Investment, as applicable, required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable. In the event that any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable and such portion is not otherwise available under the Debt Financing or Rollover Investment, as applicable, Parent shall notify the Company and use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange alternative financing from the same or other sources of financing that do not contain any Restricted Modifications (such terms and conditions, the “Alternate Terms and Conditions”), in an amount sufficient to enable Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the Alternate Terms and Conditions.

(b)    The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, use reasonable best efforts to provide all reasonable cooperation requested by Parent, Merger Sub, any Financing Sources and their respective authorized Representatives in connection with the Financing (which, for purposes of this Section 5.12(b) shall include any alternative financing), including:

(i)    participating in, and causing the Company’s management team, with appropriate seniority and expertise, including senior officers, to participate in, including the preparation for, a reasonable number of meetings, conference calls, road show, investor and similar presentations, lender presentations, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Financing on reasonable advance notice, including direct contact between such management and representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Financing Sources, potential lenders and investors for the Financing, on the other hand;

55

(ii)    providing to Parent, Merger Sub and the Financing Sources from time to time all information and disclosures regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries reasonably requested by the Financing Sources;

(iii)    executing and delivering customary authorization letters to the Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders (including customary 10b-5 and material non-public information representations);

(iv)    assisting with the preparation of appropriate and customary materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda, offering and syndication documents, business projections and other marketing documents customarily required or reasonably requested by the Financing Sources in connection with the Financing;

(v)    furnishing no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to Closing all documentation and other information that is reasonably requested no later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to Closing and required by regulatory authorities in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including U.S.A. Patriot Act of 2001, relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries;

(vi)    assisting Parent in obtaining corporate, credit, facility and securities ratings from rating agencies;

(vii)    facilitating the pledging of collateral;

(viii)    taking corporate actions reasonably necessary or advisable to permit the consummation of the Debt Financing and to permit the proceeds thereof to be made available to the Company by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately following the Effective Time;

(ix)    cooperating with the Financing Sources’ due diligence, to the extent customary and reasonable and not unreasonably interfering with the business of the Company, including by granting the Financing Sources access as provided in Section 5.3(a), subject to the limitations on, and requirements with respect to, disclosure and access set forth in the second sentence of Section 5.3(a), Section 5.3(b) and Section 5.3(c);

(x)    [reserved];

(xi)    ensuring that any syndication efforts with respect to the Financing benefit from the existing lending and investment banking relationships of the Company;

(xii)    cooperating with consultants or other suitable professional advisors engaged to undertake field examinations and appraisals for purposes of the Financing, including furnishing information to such Persons in respect of accounts receivable, inventory and other applicable assets and providing customary consent and release letters in respect of the resulting reports or in respect of field examinations and appraisals done in connection with the Company’s existing ABL credit agreement; and

56

(xiii)    assisting in the preparation and negotiation of, and executing and delivering, one or more credit agreements, pledge and security documents and other definitive financing documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent or the Financing Sources (including landlord waivers, and other third party agreements, hedging arrangements, customary officer’s and other closing certificates and back-up therefor and a solvency certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company in the form contemplated by the Financing Commitments); provided, that (A) the Company shall not be required to become subject to any obligations or Liabilities with respect to any agreements or documents under this clause (xiii) prior to the Closing and (B) nothing shall obligate the Company to provide a solvency certificate or the like, any legal opinion or other opinion of counsel, or any information that would, after consultation with legal counsel, reasonably be expected to violate any obligations of confidentiality or result in a violation of Law or loss of any privilege; provided, further, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required under this Section 5.12 to deliver any corporate (or similar) authorization or approval of the execution of the Financing (or any alternative financing), in each case, that would be effective prior to the Effective Time and no officers or directors of the Company that will not be continuing following the Merger (including for the avoidance of doubt any non-employee directors of the Company who tender resignations effective as of the Effective Time) shall be required to execute or enter into or perform any agreement with respect to the Financing (including providing any corporate (or similar) authorization or approval in connection therewith).

Any information provided to Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 5.12(b) shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement. Parent shall, on demand, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation (it being understood and agreed, however, that the Company (and not Parent or Merger Sub) shall be responsible for (a) de minimis expenses, (b) fees payable to existing legal, financial or other advisors of the Company with respect to services provided prior to the Closing Date, (c) any ordinary course amounts payable to existing employees of or consultants to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to services provided prior to the Closing Date and (d) any amounts that would have been incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of the Financing). The Company and its Representatives shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any materials that are to be presented during any meetings conducted in connection with the Financing, and Parent shall give due consideration to any such comments proposed by the Company and its Representatives. The Company hereby consents to the reasonable use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to, and is not reasonably likely to, harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its or their respective marks. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the condition set forth in Section 6.2(b) of this Agreement, as it applies to the Company’s obligations under this Section 5.12(b), shall be deemed satisfied if the Company’s material breach hereof was not the primary cause of the failure of funding under the Financing Commitments (including for purposes of Section 6.2(b)).

(i)    all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 would have been satisfied if the Closing were to have occurred at the date Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 1.2 (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing, or the failure of which to be satisfied is attributable primarily to a breach by Parent or Merger Sub of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement);

(iv)    the Company has irrevocably confirmed to Parent in writing that (A) all of the conditions in Section 6.1 and Section 6.3 have been satisfied or that it is willing to waive any such open conditions, and (B) if specific performance is granted and if the Financing and the Rollover Investment were funded, it would take such actions that are required of it by this Agreement to cause the Closing to occur.
