THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into as of this 27th day of February, 2022, by and among IIN Holding Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Parent”), IC Merger Sub Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Intricon Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the parties intend that Merger Sub, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the PBCL, will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation of such merger (the “Merger”) and each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.6(b) and Dissenting Shares, and (ii) any Rollover Shares) being converted in the Merger into the right to receive $24.25 per share, without interest thereon and subject to Section 1.6 (the “Merger Consideration”);

WHEREAS, the Company Board has as of the date hereof unanimously (i) determined that this Agreement and the Merger are in the best interests of the Company; (ii) adopted this Agreement; (iii) approved the Merger; (iv) directed that this Agreement be submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval; and (v) resolved to recommend approval of this Agreement by the Company’s shareholders;

WHEREAS, the manager of the Parent and the board of directors of Merger Sub, and the Parent as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, have adopted, approved and declared it advisable for the Parent and Merger Sub, as applicable, to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the Parent and Merger Sub have delivered: (i) the Guarantee in favor of the Company, pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, the Guarantors guaranteed certain obligations of the Parent and Merger Sub in connection with this Agreement; and (ii) the Equity Commitment Letter, pursuant to which the Guarantors committed, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to invest in the Parent, directly or indirectly, the cash amounts set forth therein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

Article I

The Merger

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the PBCL, Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time.

1.2 Effective Time of the Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, the Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cause a statement of merger or other appropriate documents (in any such case, the “Statement of Merger”) to be duly prepared, executed and acknowledged in accordance with the relevant provisions of the PBCL and filed with the Department of State. The Merger shall become effective upon the due filing of the Statement of Merger with the Department of State or at such subsequent time or date as the Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Statement of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

1.3 Closing. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by law) of the conditions set forth in Article VI, the Closing shall take place (i) at the offices of Blank Rome LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, on a date that is no later than the second Business Day following the day on which the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of such conditions) shall be satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement, or (ii) on such other date or at such other place as the Parent and the Company agree in writing.

1.4 Effects of the Merger. At the Effective Time (a) the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation in the Merger and (b) the articles of incorporation of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be amended and restated in their entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit A, until further amended in accordance with the PBCL, subject to Section 5.7(b). In addition, subject to Section 5.7(b), the Parent shall cause the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to be amended and restated in their entirety so that, immediately following the Effective Time, they are identical to the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to the name of Merger Sub therein shall be changed to refer to the name of the Company, and, as so amended and restated, such bylaws shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until further amended in accordance with the PBCL. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the PBCL and in this Agreement.

1.5 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, and the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case to hold office in accordance with the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

1.6 Conversion of Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Merger Sub, the Parent or any holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of Merger Sub:

(a) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of the 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 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock, Subsidiary-Owned and Parent-Owned Stock. Any shares of Company Common Stock that are held in treasury of the Company and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by any Subsidiary of the Company, the Parent (including any Rollover Shares), Merger Sub or any other Subsidiary of the Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Merger Consideration for Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 1.7, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.6(b), (ii) Dissenting Shares, and (iii) any Rollover Shares) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of (x) a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 1.6(c) in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.7, or (y) any Rollover Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights specified in the Rollover Agreement.

(d) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.1(a) and Section 4.1(b), the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

1.7 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall engage the Paying Agent, pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company, and immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock (other than any Rollover Shares) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, for payment through the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 1.7, the Payment Fund (it being understood and agreed that the Parent may elect to use the available unrestricted cash of the Company and its Subsidiaries to fund a portion of the Payment Fund at Closing). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Parent; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of

America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc., or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available); provided, however, that no gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable hereunder and the Parent shall take all actions necessary to ensure that, from and after the effective time, the Payment Fund includes at all times cash sufficient to satisfy the Parent’s obligation to pay the Merger Consideration under this Agreement. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments (net of any losses) shall be paid to the Parent pursuant to Section 1.7(e). In the event the Payment Fund is diminished below the level required for the Paying Agent to make prompt cash payments as required under Section 1.7(b), including any such diminishment as a result of investment losses, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, immediately deposit additional cash into the Payment Fund in an amount equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) Promptly (and in any event within three Business Days) after the Effective Time, the Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7(g)) to the Paying Agent, and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7(g)) in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7(g)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be promptly paid in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7(g)) multiplied by (2) the Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Uncertificated Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article I. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Uncertificated Shares shall upon receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form with respect to any Uncertificated Share (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) be promptly paid the Merger Consideration pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement in respect of such Uncertificated Share, and such Uncertificated Share shall forthwith be cancelled.

(c) Interest; Transfers; Rights Following the Effective Time. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in

proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Uncertificated Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7, each Certificate and all Uncertificated Shares (other than Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 1.6(c), without any interest thereon.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates and cancellation of Uncertificated Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares, and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article I, subject to Section 1.7(e).

(e) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares for one year after the Effective Time (including all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it) shall be delivered to the Parent, upon demand, and any holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares who has not previously complied with this Section 1.7 shall be entitled to receive only from the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar laws) payment of its claim for Merger Consideration, without interest.

(f) No Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount required to be delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and, if reasonably required by the Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as the Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby pursuant to this Agreement.

1.8 Company Stock Plans.

(a) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each then-outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option shall vest in full and automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Corporation an amount of cash (without any interest thereon) equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Company Stock Option. In the event that the exercise price of any Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Stock Option shall be cancelled, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect.

(b) Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is then outstanding and unvested shall vest (with performance-based vesting RSUs vesting at the applicable target level) in full and automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash (without any interest thereon) from the Surviving Corporation equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company RSU multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration.

(c) The Parent shall (i) cause the Surviving Corporation to make the payments contemplated by the foregoing Section 1.8(a) and Section 1.8(b) as promptly as practicable (and in any event within seven Business Days) after the Effective Time, and (ii) cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain at all times from and after the Effective Time sufficient liquid funds to satisfy its obligations pursuant to Section 1.8(a) and Section 1.8(b).

(d) At least five Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall provide a notice to each Person who is a holder of Company Stock Options or Company RSUs describing the treatment of and payment for such equity awards pursuant to this Section 1.8 and providing instructions for use in obtaining payment therefor. The Company shall provide the Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review the notices described in this Section 1.8(d) reasonably in advance of providing said notices and the Company shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by the Parent to the Company.

(e) The Company Board shall (i) as soon as practicable after the date hereof, suspend the Company ESPP as of the end of the Subscription Period (as defined in the ESPP) in effect as of the date of this Agreement such that no payroll deductions shall be made with respect to any Compensation (as defined in the ESPP) payable to a participating employee under the Company ESPP after the end of such Subscription Period, (ii) as soon as practicable following the end of the Subscription Period, return any remaining payroll deductions not used to purchase shares of Company Common Stock as of the end of such Subscription Period, and (iii) terminate the Company ESPP no later than immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f) No later than twenty days after the date hereof, the Company shall pass resolutions and take such other actions as are necessary to provide for the treatment of the Company Stock Options, the Company RSUs and the Company ESPP as contemplated by this Section 1.8, and shall promptly thereafter provide evidence thereof to the Parent that is reasonably satisfactory to the Parent.

(g) The Parent and the Company may agree to treat equity compensation held by Company employees subject to non-U.S. law in a manner other than that contemplated above in this Section 1.8 to the extent necessary to take into account applicable non-U.S. law or Tax or employment considerations.

1.9 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who is entitled to, and who has perfected, appraisal rights for such shares in accordance with Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), if Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL is determined to be applicable, shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.6 but shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the PBCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares.

(b) If any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as such (through failure to perfect, withdrawal or otherwise), or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL, then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, such shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.6, without interest, and shall not thereafter be deemed to be Dissenting Shares.

(c) The Company shall give the Parent: (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Subchapter D of Chapter 15 of the PBCL that relates to such demand; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. The Company shall not settle or pay or make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument or agree to do any of the foregoing unless the Parent shall have given its written consent to such settlement, payment or settlement or payment offer.

1.10 Withholding Rights. Each of the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or any other recipient of payments hereunder any amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted by the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder or other recipient in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Article II

The Company represents and warrants to the Parent and Merger Sub that the statements contained in this Article II are true and correct, except (a) as disclosed in the Company SEC Reports filed with or furnished to the SEC since January 1, 2020, and prior to the second Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement and publicly available prior to the second Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement (but excluding any predictive, cautionary or forward looking disclosures contained under the captions “Risk Factors”, “Forward Looking Statements” or any similar predictive, cautionary or forward looking sections) or (b) as set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule, subject to Section 9.12.

The Company has made available to Parent correct and complete copies of the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws (and all amendments thereto) as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

None of the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the Knowledge of the Company, any of its Affiliates is a party to or is bound by any agreement with respect to the voting (including proxies) or sale or transfer of any shares of capital stock or other equity interests of the Company. Except to the extent arising pursuant to applicable state takeover or similar laws, there are no registration rights, and there is no rights agreement, “poison pill” anti-takeover plan or other similar agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or they are bound with respect to any equity security of any class of the Company.

(d) All outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are, and all shares of Company Common Stock subject to issuance as specified in Section 2.2(b) above, upon issuance on the terms and conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable, will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to or issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right under any provision of the PBCL, the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws or any agreement to which the Company is a party or is otherwise bound.

the Parent of any notice contemplated by Section 5.1(e) will constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change; or

(ii) cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(a) the Company has provided prior written notice to the Parent at least five Business Days (the “Event Notice Period”) in advance to the effect that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) intends to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.1(e)(i), which notice will specify the basis for such Company Board Recommendation Change, including a description of the Intervening Event in reasonable detail;

(b) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change, during such Event Notice Period, (A) the Company and its Representatives must have negotiated with the Parent and its Representatives and/or the Guarantors in good faith (to the extent that the Parent desires to so negotiate) to allow the Parent and/or the Guarantors to offer such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and/or the Guarantee to obviate the need to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to such Intervening Event; and (B) the Company Board shall have taken into account any adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and/or the Guarantee proposed by the Parent and/or the Guarantors and other information provided by the Parent and/or the Guarantors in response to the notice described in clause (a) of this Section 5.1(e)(i), in each case, that are offered in writing by the Parent and/or the Guarantors, in a manner that would constitute a binding proposal between the parties if

accepted by the Company, by no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on the last day of the Event Notice Period; and

(c) following such Event Notice Period, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel and taking into account the Parent’s and/or Guarantors’ proposed revisions (if any) to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and the Guarantee, as applicable) shall have determined that the failure of the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to make such a Company Board Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law; provided that each time material modifications to the Intervening Event occur, the Company shall notify the Parent of such modification and the Event Notice Period shall recommence and be extended for two Business Days from the day of such notification.

(ii) if the Company has received a bona fide Acquisition Proposal, whether during the Go-Shop Period or after the No-Shop Period Start Date, that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) is a Superior Proposal, then the Company Board may (A) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change with respect to such Superior Proposal; or (B) authorize the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(h) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal substantially concurrently with the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) shall not take any action described in the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) unless:

(a) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law;

the Guarantors in good faith (to the extent that the Parent desires to so negotiate) to discuss such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and/or the Guarantee so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (2) permitted the Parent and its Representatives to make a presentation to the Company Board regarding, and taken into account any adjustments (if any) to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and/or the Guarantee proposed by Parent and/or the Guarantors and other information provided by the Parent and/or the Guarantors during the Notice Period, in each case, that are offered in writing by the Parent and/or the Guarantors, in a manner that would constitute a binding proposal between the parties if accepted by the Company, by no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on the last day of the Notice Period; provided that in the event of any material modifications to any Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that any change to the material financial terms of such proposal shall be deemed a material modification (a “Material Revision”)), the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to the Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.1(e)(ii)(c) (other than the requirement of a presentation as contemplated by clause (ii)(2) above) with respect to such new written notice (it being understood that the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be two Business Days);

(d) following such Notice Period, including any subsequent Notice Period with respect to a Material Revision as provided in the final proviso of the foregoing Section 5.3(e)(ii)(c), the Company Board (or a committee thereof) (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel and taking into account Parent’s and/or Guarantors proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter and/or the Guarantee) shall have determined that the Acquisition Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal, and in the case of a Company Board Recommendation Change, that the failure to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law (it being understood and agreed to that if after such consultation the Company Board shall have determined that the Acquisition Proposal no longer continues to be a Superior Proposal, the Company may promptly (and in any event no later than two days thereafter) inform the Third Person that made such Acquisition Proposal of the revisions to this Agreement proposed by the Parent pursuant to Section 5.1(e)(ii)(c)); and

(e) in the event of any termination of this Agreement in order to cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will have validly terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(h), including paying the Company Termination Fee in accordance with Section 7.3(b)(iii).

(f) Notice. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VII and the Effective Time, the Company will promptly (and, in any event, within one Business Day) notify the Parent if any offers or proposals that constitute or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal are received by, any non-public information is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives. Such notice must include (i) the identity of the Third Person or

“group” of Persons making such inquiries, offers or proposals (unless, in each case, such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Third Person or “group” of Persons that is in effect on the date of this Agreement); and (ii) a summary of the material terms and conditions of such inquiries, offers or proposals. Thereafter, the Company must keep the Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably prompt basis, of the status and material developments relating to such Acquisition Proposal (including any material amendments thereto (including with respect to modifications to any material financial terms).

(g) Certain Disclosures. Nothing in this Agreement will prohibit the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) from (i) taking and disclosing to the shareholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or complying with Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, including a “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to the shareholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any substantially similar communication); (ii) complying with Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act; (iii) informing any Person of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 5.1; or (iv) making any disclosure to the shareholders of the Company (including regarding the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries) that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has determined to make in good faith in order to comply with applicable Law, regulation or stock exchange rule or listing agreement, it being understood that any such statement or disclosure made by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) pursuant to this Section 5.1(g) must be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and will not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company or the Company Board (or any committee thereof) and the rights of the Parent under this Section 5.1, it being understood that nothing in the foregoing will be deemed to permit the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change other than in accordance with Section 5.1(e). In addition, it is understood and agreed that, for purposes of this Agreement, a factually accurate required public statement by the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) that solely describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal, the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto will not be deemed to be (A) a withholding, withdrawal, amendment or modification, or proposal by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) to withhold, withdraw, amend or modify, the Company Board Recommendation; (B) an adoption, approval or recommendation with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; or (C) a Company Board Recommendation Change.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall (i) prepare (with the Parent’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC the Proxy Statement, to be sent to the shareholders of the Company relating to the meeting of the

Company’s shareholders (the “Company Meeting”) to be held to consider, among other matters, the approval of this Agreement and (ii) set a record date for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Company Meeting and commence a broker search pursuant to Section 14a-13 of the Exchange Act in connection therewith. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by the Company without providing the Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon and the Company will consider in good faith incorporating all reasonable comments timely made thereto by the Parent. The Company will advise the Parent promptly after it receives any oral or written request by the SEC for amendment of the Proxy Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information, and will promptly provide the Parent with copies of any written communication from the SEC or any state securities commission and a reasonable opportunity to participate in the responses thereto and the Company will consider in good faith incorporating any reasonable comments to such response timely made by the Parent. If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to the Company or the Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by the Company or the Parent that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, so that the Proxy Statement would not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall promptly be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required under applicable Law, disseminated to shareholders of the Company; provided that the delivery of such notice and the filing of any such amendment or supplement shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by any party hereunder or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to any party.

Except to the extent that the Company Board shall have effected a Company Board Recommendation Change in accordance

with Section 5.1(e), the Company, through the Company Board, shall (A) recommend to its shareholders that they approve this Agreement and the Merger (the “Company Board Recommendation”) and (B) include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement.

5.3 Nasdaq Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing of the Company Common Stock on Nasdaq. Each of the parties hereto agrees to cooperate with the other parties hereto and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to delist the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq as promptly as possible following the Effective Time and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

5.4 Confidentiality; Access to Information.

(a) Except as expressly modified herein, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) During the Pre-Closing Period, notwithstanding anything in the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) afford to the Parent and the Parent’s Representatives, reasonable access, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably disrupt or interfere with business operations, to all of its employees (subject to this Section 5.4(b)), properties, books, contracts and records as the Parent shall reasonably request, and, during such period, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) furnish promptly to the Parent (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities Laws and (ii) all other information concerning its employees (subject to this Section 5.4(b)), business, properties and assets as the Parent may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to permit any inspection or other access, or to disclose any information, (A) to the extent related to an Acquisition Proposal (except as otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement), (B) if in the Company’s reasonable, good faith discretion, restricting or prohibiting access is advisable in connection with any COVID-19 Measures, or (C) that in the reasonable judgment of the Company (after consultation with outside legal counsel) would: (1) result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of any third party, (2) violate any legal requirement or contract (including confidentiality provisions thereof), or (3) jeopardize protections afforded the Company under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine (so long as in connection with this clause (C) the Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and practicable under the circumstances); provided that any communications by the Parent or its Representatives with employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall not require any notice if such communications are with any of the persons set forth on Section 5.4(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that the Company shall have the right to have the Company’s representative present at such meeting), it being understood that (I) the Company will cooperate in good faith with the Parent to arrange for an appropriate response to unsolicited outreach to the Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives by such licensors, customers or suppliers (which response shall include, at the Company’s request, a representative of the Company), and (II) this Section 5.4(b) shall not prohibit the Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives from contacting such licensors, customers or suppliers in the Ordinary Course of Business if such contacts are unrelated to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

5.5 Legal Conditions to the Merger.

(a) Subject to the terms hereof, including Section 5.5(b), Section 5.5(c) and Section 5.5(d), each party hereto shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(ii) as promptly as practicable, obtain any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations, or orders required to be obtained by such party (or any of its Subsidiaries) from any Governmental Entity or third party listed on Section 5.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that in no event shall the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries be required to pay any monies (except for filings or similar fees) or (except, in the case of the Parent or Merger Sub, as contemplated by and subject to Section 5.5(d)) agree to any material undertaking in connection with any of the foregoing;

(iii) as promptly as practicable, make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement and the Merger required under (A) the Exchange Act, and any other applicable federal or state securities Laws, (B) the HSR Act, any other applicable Antitrust Laws and any related governmental request thereunder and (C) any other applicable Law;

(iv) contest and resist any action, including any administrative or judicial action, and seek to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) (a “Restrictive Order”) which has the effect of making the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v) execute or deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement.

The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and submissions contemplated by the foregoing clauses (ii) or (iii), including providing

copies of all such documents to the non-filing Person and its advisors prior to filing and, if requested, accepting reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in connection therewith. Each party hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may, as each determines is reasonably necessary, designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other pursuant to this Section 5.5 as “Outside Counsel Only”. Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to directors, officers or employees of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (the Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 5.5(a) shall limit any obligation under any other provision in this Section 5.5.

(b) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.5, each of the Parent and the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within ten Business Days following the date of this Agreement, if required, make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act (including seeking early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) as promptly as practicable make any filings required or advisable under other applicable Antitrust Laws. None of the Parent, Merger Sub or the Company shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust Laws or enter into a timing agreement with any Governmental Entity, without the prior written consent of the other parties.

(c) Subject to the terms hereof, and without limiting the Parent’s obligations under Section 5.5(d), the parties hereto shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any government clearances or approvals required for the Closing under any Antitrust Law, to respond to any government requests for information under any Antitrust Law, to cause any waiting periods under any applicable Antitrust Laws to expire or be terminated, and to contest and resist any action, including any legislative, administrative or judicial action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Restrictive Order. The parties hereto shall consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to the other parties in advance, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Law. To the extent permitted by law or any Governmental Entity reviewing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties will provide each other the opportunity to participate in meetings and other substantive conversations with any such Governmental Entity.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parent shall propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect), by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such assets or businesses of the Parent or, effective as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, or their respective Subsidiaries, or otherwise offer to take or offer to commit to take

any action which it is capable of taking and if the offer is accepted, take or commit to take such action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the businesses, services or assets of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries, in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any Restrictive Order challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any Antitrust Law, which would have the effect of preventing or delaying the Closing beyond the Termination Date; provided, however, that neither the Parent nor Merger Sub shall be required to take, or to cause the Surviving Corporation to take, any of the actions under this Section 5.5(d) or any other provision of Section 5.5 that would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Parent and its Affiliates.

5.6 Public Disclosure. Except as may be required by law or stock market regulations, (a) the press release announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be issued only in such form as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Parent and (b) the Parent and the Company shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party before issuing any other press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to the Merger or this Agreement that is not limited to previously approved statements; provided, however, that these restrictions shall not apply to any Company communications (or the Parent’s or Merger Sub’s response thereto) in connection with an Acquisition Proposal.

5.7 D&O Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time through the six-year anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, Action or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was an officer, director, manager, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, while a director, manager or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is or was serving at the request of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as an officer, director, manager, employee or agent of another Person, in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, in each case to the fullest extent that the Company would have been permitted to do so under applicable Law. Each Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of any such claim, Action or investigation from each of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation (without duplication) within ten Business Days of receipt by the Parent or the Surviving Corporation from the Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any Indemnified Party to whom expenses are to be advanced provides prior to any receipt of such advances an undertaking, to the extent required by the PBCL or other applicable Law, to repay such advances if it is determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under applicable Law.

(b) From the Effective Time through the six-year anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain, and the Parent shall cause the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to so contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time than are set forth in the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(c) Subject to the next sentence, the Surviving Corporation shall either (i) maintain, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the beneficiaries, in effect for six years from the Effective Time the Current D&O Insurance with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), or (ii) purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement and maintain such endorsement in full force and effect for its full term, provided that in the case of clause (i) and clause (ii), the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium. If the Company’s or the Surviving Corporation’s existing insurance expires, is terminated or cancelled during such six-year period or exceeds the Maximum Premium, or (if applicable) if the Reporting Tail Endorsement would exceed the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain, as much directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (or coverage under a Reporting Tail Endorsement, if applicable) as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and conditions substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the Indemnified Parties than the Current D&O Insurance.

(d) If any Indemnified Party makes any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 5.7 that is denied by the Parent and/or the Company or the Surviving Corporation, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Indemnified Party is entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses, then the Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation shall pay the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with pursuing his or her claims to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(e) In the event the Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (in the case of a transfer of all or substantially all the Parent’s or the Surviving Corporation’s properties and assets), (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 all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns (in the case of a transfer of all or substantially all the Parent’s or the Surviving Corporation’s properties and assets) of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume and succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.7.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.7 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to any Indemnified Party by law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement,

and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their heirs.

5.8 Notification of Certain Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, and the Company shall give prompt notice to the Parent, of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure to occur is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of such Person (or, in case of the Parent’s obligation to provide notice, any representation or warranty of Merger Sub) contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate (i) in the case of any representation or warranty of the Company, in any manner that would result in the failure of the condition set forth in Section 6.3(a) or (ii) in the case of any representation or warranty of the Parent or Merger Sub, in any material respect, in each case at any time from and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or (b) any material breach by such Person (or, in case of the Parent’s obligation to provide notice, any material breach by Merger Sub) of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement. The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any remedies available to the parties hereunder.

5.9 State Takeover Laws. If any “fair price,” “business combination” or “control share acquisition” statute or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation (collectively, an “Anti-Takeover Law”) is or may become applicable to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company, the Company Board, the Parent and Merger Sub, as applicable, each shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to (a) take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereunder may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and (b) otherwise take all such actions as are necessary to eliminate the effects of any such statute or regulation on such transactions; provided that the Parent and Merger Sub shall only be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 5.9 if they have received written notice from the Company regarding the applicability of such Anti-Takeover Law and the Company has requested in such written notice that the Parent and Merger Sub take specified actions to render such Antitakeover Law inapplicable.

5.10 Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all reasonable steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Company equity securities (including derivative securities) pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or officer of the Company and who would otherwise be subject to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act to be exempt under such rule to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

5.11 Control of Operations. Without in any way limiting any party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, (a) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give the Parent or Merger Sub, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s operations prior to the Effective Time and (b) prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall exercise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ operations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to the following sentence), the Company shall have the right to control the defense of any litigation related to this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement brought by any shareholder of the Company or any holder of the Company’s other securities against the Company and/or its directors or officers, provided that the Company shall give the Parent the opportunity to participate, at the Parent’s expense, in the defense or settlement of any such litigation and the Company shall give due consideration to the Parent’s advice with respect to the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not settle or enter into any negotiations or agreement with respect to the settlement of any such litigation without the prior written consent of the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Each of the Parent and the Company shall notify the other promptly of the commencement of any such shareholder litigation of which it has received notice.

(c) Use of Logos. Subject to the Company’s prior written approval of any such use prior to the Effective Time (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing so long as such logos (i) are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) are used solely in connection with a description of the Company, its business and products or the Merger; and (iii) are used in a manner consistent with the other terms and conditions that the Company reasonably imposes.

information utilized in connection therewith, except to the extent resulting from willful and material misconduct or fraud committed by or on behalf of the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives. Parent’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.13(e) are referred to collectively as the “Parent Reimbursement Obligations.”

5.14 Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) For a period of one year following the Effective Time or such shorter period as a Company Employee remains employed with the Company or its Subsidiaries or the Parent or any of its Affiliates, the Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Company Employee (i) base salary and wages no less favorable than the base salary and wages provided to such Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time, (ii) annual cash bonus incentive opportunity no less favorable than the annual cash bonus incentive opportunity in effect for such Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time, provided that, with respect to any period commencing on or after January 1, 2023, the Parent may change, or cause to changed, the performance criteria for such annual cash bonus incentive opportunity from the performance criteria in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, in the Parent’s sole discretion, and (iii) continued coverage under the Company Employee Plans listed on Section 5.14 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (or under any substantially comparable plan) at the same level and subject to substantially the same terms as conditions (taken as a whole) as provided to such Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time (excluding equity incentive awards, equity purchase agreements and individual employment, change in control and/or severance agreements or arrangements); provided, however, that the requirements of this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any Company Employee of a Subsidiary if and after such Subsidiary is sold or disposed of by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to an unaffiliated third party after the Effective Date.

(b) If a new benefit plan is established in replacement of a Company Employee Plan listed on Section 5.14 of the Company Disclosure Schedule that covers a Company Employee, then: (i) for all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under such new plan, each Company Employee shall, subject to applicable law and applicable tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Employee Plan in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that the foregoing shall not apply (i) to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits, and (ii) for purposes of any equity or phantom equity plan or program adopted by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries after the Closing; (ii) Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable new plan to: (x) waive all pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such Company Employees, to the extent such pre-existing conditions, exclusions or waiting periods were satisfied under the similar Company Employee Plan in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) provide each such Company Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid (to the same extent such credit was given for the year under the similar Company Employee Plan in effect

immediately prior to the Effective Time) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements.

(c) If any Company Employee (who is not otherwise a party to an agreement providing for severance benefits) whose employment is terminated on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Time under circumstances under which such Company Employee would have received severance benefits under the Company Severance Practices, the Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to provide that such Company Employee shall be entitled to severance benefits from the Surviving Corporation that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the severance benefits that would have been paid under such circumstances under the Company Severance Practices as in existence on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the requirements of this Section 5.14(c) shall not apply to any Company Employee of a Subsidiary if and after such Subsidiary is sold or disposed of by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to an unaffiliated third party after the Effective Date.

(d) At least ten Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company covenants and agrees to provide the Parent with an analysis and supporting calculations prepared by the Company or its tax advisors regarding the applicability of Section 280G of the Code to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or together with any other event). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any payment or benefit to be paid or received with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (a “Change in Control Payment”) (i) would constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) if not for reduction, the Change in Control Payment would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company agrees to cause the Change in Control Payment be reduced in accordance with the applicable provision of the applicable Company Stock Plan to the extent necessary to reduce the Change in Control Payment to the greater after-tax amount to the recipient of (A) and (B), after taking into account the Excise Tax and all applicable federal, state and local employment and income taxes (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), where (A) is the largest portion of the Change in Control Payment that would result in no portion of the Change in Control Payment being subject to the Excise Tax and (B) is the unreduced Change in Control Payment.

(e) Subject to Section 5.14(a), nothing in this Agreement shall otherwise prohibit the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from amending or terminating (in accordance with any applicable terms), or shall be construed as creating or amending any Company Employee Plans or any other compensation or benefit plans, programs, policies, practices, agreements and arrangements sponsored or maintained by the Company, Parent or any of their Subsidiaries, including each Company Employee Plan and any newly established employee benefit plan, and nothing in this Agreement shall otherwise require Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to create or continue any particular compensation or benefit plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement after the Effective Time or to employ any particular person on any particular terms. The provisions of this Section 5.14 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no current or former employee, officer, director, manager or consultant, or any other individual associated therewith, shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of this Section 5.14. The provisions of Sections 5.14(a) through 5.14(c) shall not apply to persons employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries outside the United States, it being agreed

that such persons shall be treated in accordance with applicable law and the terms of any Contracts covering them.

5.15 Certain Pre-Closing Covenants. Prior to the Closing Date, Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take the actions and to provide to the Parent the documents set forth on Section 5.15 of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

5.16 Rollover Shares. Prior to the Closing Date, the Parent, the Company and the persons set forth on Section 5.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Rollover Shareholders”) may negotiate and enter into one or more agreements (collectively, the “Rollover Agreement”) providing for the contribution immediately prior to the Effective Time of a portion of the shares of Company Common Stock held by the Rollover Shareholders (the aggregate amount to be contributed, if any, the “Rollover Shares”) to an Affiliate of the Parent in exchange for equity interests of such Affiliate in a transaction intended to qualify as a contribution of property under Section 721 of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c) Parent Payment. If this Agreement is validly terminated by (i) the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(g) or (ii) the Parent pursuant to Section 7.1(c) and at such time the Company could have validly terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(g), in each case, then the Parent must promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) following such termination pay to the Company $6,000,000 in cash (the “Parent Termination Fee”) in accordance with the payment instructions which have been provided to the Parent by the Company as of the date of this Agreement, or as further updated by written notice by the Company from time to time.

(d) Single Payment Only. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event will the Company or the Parent, as applicable, be required to pay the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events.

(e) Payments; Default. The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 7.3 are an integral part of this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement.

All payments under this Section 7.3 shall be made by the payor Party to the payee Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the payee Party.

(f) Sole and Exclusive Remedy.

(i) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company’s receipt of the Parent Termination Fee to the extent owed pursuant to Section 7.3(c) (including the Company’s right to enforce the Guarantee with respect thereto and receive the Parent Termination Fee from the Guarantors), the Parent Reimbursement Obligations, and the Company’s right to seek specific performance pursuant to Section 9.10(b) will be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Company and the Company Related Parties against the Parent Related Parties in respect of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any breach, termination or failure. Upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee, none of the Parent Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to any of (A) the Company and its Affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of the Company and its Affiliates (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby for any matters forming the basis of such termination (except that the Parties (or their respective Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and the Company may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 7.3(e), as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.3(f)(i) will not relieve the Parent, Merger Sub or any Guarantor from liability for (1) any fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement, or (2) any breaches of the Confidentiality Agreement; provided that under no circumstances will the collective monetary damages payable by the Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates for breaches (including any Willful Breach or fraud) under this Agreement (taking into account the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to this Agreement), the Equity Commitment Letter or the Guarantee exceed an amount equal to $6,000,000 in the aggregate for all such breaches, plus the Enforcement Expenses, if any, and the Parent Reimbursement Obligations, if any (collectively, the “Parent Liability Limitation”). In no event will any of the Company Related Parties seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives or any other Person acting on their behalf to seek or obtain, nor will any Person

be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or award in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against (A) the Parent, Merger Sub or any Guarantor; or (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Debt Financing Sources, Affiliates (other than the Parent, Merger Sub or any Guarantor), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of the Parent, Merger Sub and each Guarantor (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”), and, in no event will the Company be entitled to seek or obtain any monetary damages of any kind, including consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages, in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against the Parent Related Parties for, or with respect to, this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Guarantee, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, any breach by the Parent, Merger Sub or any Guarantor), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure. Other than the Guarantors’ obligations under the Guarantee and the Equity Commitment Letter and other than the obligations of the Parent and Merger Sub to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, in no event will any Parent Related Party or any other Person, have any liability for monetary damages to the Company or any other Person relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Merger.

(ii) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, the Parent’s receipt of the Company Termination Fee, to the extent owed pursuant to Section 7.3(b) and the Parent’s right to seek specific performance pursuant to Section 9.10(b) will be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parent, Merger Sub, the Guarantors and the Parent Related Parties against the Company Related Parties in respect of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any breach, termination or failure. Upon payment of the Company Termination Fee, none of the Company Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to any of the Parent, Merger Sub, any Guarantor or the Parent Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby for any matters forming the basis of such termination (except that the Parties (or their respective Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and the Parent may be entitled to remedies with respect to, Section 7.3(e)). The Parent’s receipt of the Company Termination Fee to the extent owed pursuant to Section 7.3(b) will be the only monetary damages the Parent and Merger Sub and each of their respective Affiliates may recover from Company Related Parties in respect of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure, and upon payment of such amount, (1) none of the Company Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to the Parent or Merger Sub relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any matters forming the basis of such termination (except that the Parties (or their respective Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and the Parent may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 7.3(e), as applicable); and (2) none of the Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person will be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any Company Related Party arising out of this Agreement,

any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination (except that the Parties (or their respective Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and the Company may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 7.3(a) and Section 7.3(e), as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.3(f)(ii) will not relieve the Company and its Subsidiaries from liability for any fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement or for any breaches of the Confidentiality Agreement; provided that under no circumstances will the collective monetary damages payable by the Company for breaches (including any Willful Breach or fraud) under this Agreement (taking into account the payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to this Agreement) exceed an amount equal to $4,000,000 in the aggregate for all such breaches, plus the Enforcement Expenses, if any (collectively, the “Company Liability Limitation”). In no event will any of the Parent Related Parties seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives or any other Person acting on their behalf to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or award in excess of the Company Liability Limitation against any of the Company Related Parties, and in no event will the Parent or Merger Sub be entitled to seek or obtain any monetary damages of any kind, including consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages, in excess of the Company Liability Limitation against the Company Related Parties for, or with respect to, this Agreement or the Merger, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure.

(g) Liquidated Damages. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that any amount payable by the Company or the Parent pursuant to this Section 7.3, including the Company Termination Fee and the Parent Termination Fee, does not constitute a penalty, but rather shall constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate a party for the disposition of its rights under this Agreement in the circumstances in which such amounts are due and payable, which amounts would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(h) Acknowledgement regarding Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.3(f), it is agreed that the Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 9.10(b) except that, although the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine its choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 9.10(b), under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 9.10(b) and any monetary damages.

(i) Non-Recourse Parent Party. In no event will the Company or any of its Subsidiaries seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their respective Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or monetary award against any Non-Recourse Parent Party (as defined in the Equity Commitment Letter, which excludes, for the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantors, the Parent and Merger Sub) with respect to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter or the Guarantee or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including any breach by the Parent, Merger Sub or any Guarantor), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or any claims or actions under applicable Laws arising out of any such

breach, termination or failure, other than from the Parent or Merger Sub to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or the Guarantors to the extent expressly provided for in the Guarantee and the Equity Commitment Letter.

7.4 Amendment. Subject to applicable Law and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parent, Merger Sub and the Company (pursuant to authorized action by the Company Board (or a committee thereof)), except that in the event that the Company has received the Company Shareholder Approval, no amendment may be made to this Agreement that requires the approval of the Company’s shareholders pursuant to the PBCL without such approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions relating to the Debt Financing Sources set forth in Section 5.13(a), Section 7.2, Section 7.3(e), Section 7.6, Section 9.4, Section 9.5, Section 9.9, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.14 or this Section 7.4 (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify in a manner adverse to the Debt Financing Sources in any material respect the substance of the provisions relating to the Debt Financing Sources set forth in Section 5.13(a), Section 7.2, Section 7.3(e), Section 7.6, Section 9.4, Section 9.5, Section 9.9, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.14 or this Section 7.4) may not be amended, modified or altered without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.

Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party.

None of the Debt Financing Sources will have any liability to the Company or any of its Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing or otherwise, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates will have any rights or claims against any of the Debt Financing Sources hereunder or thereunder; provided that nothing in this Section 7.6 shall limit the rights of the Company and its Affiliates from and after the Effective Time under any debt commitment letter or the definitive agreement for the Debt Financing executed in connection with the Debt Financing (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, under this Agreement) to the extent the Company and/or its Affiliates are party thereto.

Any party hereto may give any notice or other communication hereunder using any other means (including personal delivery, messenger service, or ordinary mail), but no such notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the party for whom it is intended. Any party hereto may change the address to which notices and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other parties hereto notice in the manner herein set forth.

9.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto and the documents and instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, or between the Company and Merger Sub or between the Company and the Parent, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof, and the parties hereto specifically disclaim reliance on any such prior understandings, agreements or representations to the extent not embodied in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms.

9.4 Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by the terms and provisions of Section 5.7 (with respect to which the Indemnified Parties shall be third party beneficiaries), (b) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of holders of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Stock Options and Company RSUs to receive the consideration in each case in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Article I, (c) the rights of the Parent Related Parties and the Company Related Parties set forth in Section 7.3(f), and (d) the rights of the Debt Financing Sources set forth in Section 5.1, Section 5.13 and Section 7.3.

9.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent and Merger Sub may, from and after the Closing, transfer or assign all or any part of their respective rights, in whole or in part, under this Agreement to any Debt Financing Source or any other any lender (or any administrative or collateral agent on behalf of itself and such lender(s)) as collateral security (it being understood that such transfer or assignment shall not relieve the Parent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sub of their respective obligations hereunder or enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any other party hereto).

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

9.6 Severability. Any term or provision (or part thereof) of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions (or parts thereof) hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision (or part thereof) in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision (or part thereof) hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision (or part thereof), to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof) with a term or provision (or part thereof) that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof), and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto shall replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof) with a valid and enforceable term or provision (or part thereof) that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term (or part thereof).

9.7 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan (including by portable document format (.pdf)) delivered by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile or by an electronic scan (including by portable document format (.pdf)) delivered by electronic mail.

9.8 Interpretation. Except where expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation apply to this Agreement: (a) “include”, “includes” and “including” are not limiting; (b) “hereof”, “hereto”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; (c) “date hereof” refers to the date set forth in the initial caption of this Agreement; (d) “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase does not mean simply “if”; (e) descriptive headings, the table of defined terms and the table of contents are inserted for convenience only and do not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement; (f) definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms; (g) references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns; (h) references to an “Article”, “Section”, “Recital”, “preamble”, “Annex”, “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refer to an article, section, recital or preamble of, or an annex, exhibit or schedule to, this Agreement; (i) references to “$” or otherwise to dollar amounts refer to the lawful currency of the United States; (j) references to a federal, state, local or foreign statute or law include any rules, regulations and delegated legislation issued thereunder; (k) references to a communication by a regulatory agency include a communication by the staff of such regulatory agency and (l) references to “made available” mean made available through an electronic data room, through ▇▇▇▇▇ or otherwise at least twenty-four hours prior to the execution of this Agreement. The

language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party hereto. No summary of this Agreement prepared by any party shall affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

9.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

9.10 Remedies.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Person will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Person, and the exercise by a Person of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) Irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, as money damages or other legal remedies (including any fees payable pursuant to Section 7.3), even if available, would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages, including if the parties hereto fail to take any action required of them hereunder to consummate this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or the Parent and/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 the Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement, in each case without posting a bond or other security. The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the provisions set forth in Section 7.3 (A) are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement and (B) shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any party’s right to specific enforcement and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor the Parent would have entered into this Agreement. It is explicitly agreed that, subject to the limitations in the next two sentences of this Section 9.10(b), the Company shall have the right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in connection with enforcing the Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger and cause the Financing to be funded (including to cause the Parent to enforce the obligations of the Guarantors under the Equity Commitment Letter in order to cause the Financing to be timely completed in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter) subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein and herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the rights of the parties to the definitive agreements for any Financing under the terms thereof, none of the Company and its Affiliates and their direct and indirect equityholders shall be entitled to directly seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement against any Debt Financing Source. Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is explicitly agreed that the right of the Company to seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in connection with enforcing the Parent’s obligation to cause the Financing to be funded shall be subject to the requirements that (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.3 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of such conditions), and (ii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing that if the Financing is funded, then the Company shall take such actions that are required of it by this Agreement to consummate the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. No party hereto shall raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, or to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the parties under this Agreement. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each Party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

9.11 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania or in any state court located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such Action shall be heard and determined in any such court, (c) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (d) agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any other court. Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Person with respect thereto. Any party hereto may make service on another party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 9.2. Nothing in this Section 9.11, however, shall affect the right of any Person to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

9.12 Disclosure Schedule. The Company Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in sections corresponding to the numbered sections contained in this Agreement, and the disclosure in any section shall qualify (a) the corresponding section of this Agreement and (b) the other sections of this Agreement, to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on its face from a reading of such disclosure that it also qualifies or applies to such other sections; provided that no disclosure in any section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall modify or qualify any provision of Section 4.1 unless such disclosure is expressly included in Section 4.1 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. The inclusion of any information in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material, has resulted in or would result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or is outside the Ordinary Course of Business.

9.13 Parent Guarantee. The Parent agrees to take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to perform all of its agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement. The Parent unconditionally guarantees to the Company the full and complete performance by Merger Sub of its obligations under this Agreement and shall be liable for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Merger Sub under this Agreement.

9.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING THE MERGER. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATION OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
