AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of January 17, 2014, is made by and among JHP Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), Juniper Mergeco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (the “Merger Sub”), and WP JHP Representative LLC solely in its capacity as the representative for the Company’s shareholders (the “Representative”). The Parent, the Merger Sub and the Company, and, solely in its capacity as and solely to the extent applicable, the Representative, shall be referred to herein from time to time as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Article XI below.

WHEREAS, the Parent desires to acquire one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company in a reverse subsidiary merger transaction on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of the Company, the Parent and the Merger Sub have each (i) determined that the Merger is fair, advisable and in the best interests of their respective companies and stockholders and (ii) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and the Securityholders are delivering to Parent and the Merger Sub the Written Consent; and

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Merger Sub have each determined to recommend to its stockholders the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.01 The Merger.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Effective Time, the Merger Sub shall merge (the “Merger”) with and into the Company in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), whereupon the separate existence of the Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”).

(b) At the Closing, the Company and the Merger Sub shall cause a certificate of merger substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed, acknowledged and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such other time as the Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

(c) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall succeed to all the assets, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises and be subject to all of the Liabilities, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Company and the Merger Sub, all as provided under the DGCL.

1.02 Effect on Capital Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof:

(a) Each share of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into a right to receive an amount in cash equal to the sum of:

(i) the Liquidation Value of such share of Preferred Stock (rounded down to the nearest ▇▇▇▇▇);

(ii) the Per Share Closing Residual Cash Consideration multiplied by the Preferred Share Common Equivalent; and

(iii) the Per Share Additional Merger Consideration multiplied by the Preferred Share Common Equivalent.

The aggregate consideration to which holders of Preferred Stock become entitled pursuant to this Section 1.02(a) is referred to herein as the “Preferred Stock Merger Consideration.”

(b) Each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Restricted Stock, Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the sum of:

(i) the Per Share Closing Residual Cash Consideration; and

(ii) the Per Share Additional Merger Consideration.

The aggregate consideration to which holders of Common Stock become entitled pursuant to this Section 1.02(b) is referred to herein as the “Common Stock Merger Consideration”.

- 2 -

(c) Each share of Restricted Stock which is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall vest in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent provided by the terms of the Company Equity Plan and the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement or any other applicable agreement pursuant to which such Restricted Stock was granted and, if so vested, all restrictions with respect thereto shall lapse immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each share of Restricted Stock that is vested as of the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, less applicable withholding Taxes, equal to the sum of:

(i) the Per Share Closing Residual Cash Consideration; and

(ii) the Per Share Additional Merger Consideration.

Each share of Restricted Stock that remains outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time (but after giving effect to any vesting that occurs pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 1.02(c)) shall be immediately forfeited for no consideration and cancelled as of the Effective Time. The aggregate consideration to which holders of Restricted Stock become entitled pursuant to this Section 1.02(c) is referred to herein as the “Restricted Stock Merger Consideration.”

(d) Each share of Common Stock and each share of Preferred Stock, if any, held immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Parent, the Merger Sub or the Company shall be canceled and no payment shall be made with respect thereto (“Excluded Shares”).

(e) Each share of common stock of the Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Company.

1.03 Effect on Options.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the Company or of any Securityholder, (i) each Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is not an In-the-Money Option shall automatically be canceled and extinguished, no longer be outstanding and cease to represent the right to acquire shares of Common Stock, without any payment of any consideration therefor; and (ii) each In-the-Money Option shall automatically be canceled and extinguished, no longer be outstanding and cease to represent the right to acquire shares of Common Stock, and in consideration therefor, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Option Consideration. The Company shall, prior to the Effective Time, take all commercially reasonable actions as are reasonably necessary in order to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 1.03; provided that such actions shall expressly be conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger and each of the other transactions contemplated hereby and shall be of no force or effect if this Agreement is terminated.

- 3 -

(b) The Closing Option Consideration payable to the holders of In-the-Money Options pursuant to Section 1.03(a) above shall be paid through the Company’s payroll system on the first normal payroll date of the Company on or following the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the Closing Date), and the remaining portion of the Option Consideration payable to the holders of In-the-Money Options and any other amounts received by the Representative pursuant to this Agreement that is payable to the holders of In-the-Money Options and, at the request of the Representative, paid to the Surviving Company for payment through the Surviving Company’s payroll system on the first normal payroll date of the Surviving Company (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following such request) following each such time as any such Option Consideration becomes payable to such holder, if any. In the event that any portion of the Option Consideration is payable to a former employee of the Company, the Representative and the Company shall cooperate to make the payments (subject to Section 1.13) due to such former employee in a reasonable manner without placing an unreasonable burden on the Representative or the Company.

1.04 Exchange of Company Stock; Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall effect the exchange of cash for the shares of Company Stock that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and entitled to payment pursuant to Section 1.02. In connection with such exchange, by no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (unless such ten Business Day period is waived or shortened by the Representative), the Paying Agent shall provide each holder of Company Stock with a Letter of Transmittal, substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, with such changes as may be required by the Paying Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Representative (a “Letter of Transmittal”). Prior to the Closing Date, the Paying Agent, the Parent and the Representative shall enter into a customary paying agent agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Representative (the “Paying Agent Agreement”). At the Effective Time, the Parent shall transfer to the Paying Agent via wire transfer of immediately available funds, cash in an amount equal to the Closing Payment Amount. The Paying Agent shall hold such funds and deliver them in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and the terms and conditions of the Paying Agent Agreement. Each holder of Company Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time may deliver a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal and, after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to such holder a wire transfer in an amount equal to the amount of cash to which such holder is entitled under Section 1.02 (less the applicable portions of the Adjustment Escrow Amount and the Representative Amount) to the account(s) designated by such holder in such holder’s Letter of Transmittal; provided, that the Paying Agent shall deliver or cause to be delivered such amounts on the Closing Date to any holder of Company Stock that has delivered a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal to the Paying Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Except for interest that may be payable pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement for any Escrow Securityholder, in no event shall any holder of Company Stock who delivers a Letter of Transmittal be entitled to receive interest on any of the funds to be received in the Merger. All fees and expenses of the Paying Agent shall be paid by the Parent. Any Company Stock held by a Securityholder that has delivered a Letter of Transmittal to the Company pursuant to this Section 1.04 shall not be transferable on the books of the Company without the Parent’s prior written consent. At the Effective Time, the share transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of

- 4 -

Company Stock theretofore outstanding on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of the shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law. On or after the Effective Time, any shares of Company Stock presented to the Surviving Company or the Parent for any reason shall be converted into the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 1.02 without any interest thereon. Any portion of the funds held by the Paying Agent pursuant to this Agreement that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Stock twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Company, upon demand, and any holder of Company Stock that has not previously complied with this Section 1.04 prior to the end of such twelve (12) month period shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Company for payment of its claim for the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such Company Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Parent, the Surviving Company nor their Affiliates shall be liable to any Securityholder for any amount paid to any public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar laws. Any amount remaining unclaimed by Securityholders three (3) years after the date on which such funds were delivered to the Paying Agent for payment (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity) shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of the Surviving Company free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

1.05 Representative Amount. Concurrent with the Effective Time, the Parent shall deduct from the Merger Consideration due to the Escrow Securityholders in accordance with the Escrow Securityholders Side Letter, an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 or such higher amount as the Representative may designate in writing to the Company and the Parent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, and such amount shall be delivered by the Parent to the Representative, on behalf of the Escrow Securityholders, at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Representative, to satisfy potential future obligations of the Escrow Securityholders to the Representative, including expenses of the Representative arising from the defense or enforcement of claims pursuant to Sections 1.09 and 10.01 (such amount, in the aggregate, the “Representative Amount”). The Representative Amount shall be retained in whole or in part by the Representative for such time as the Representative shall determine in its sole discretion. If the Representative shall determine in its sole discretion to return all or any portion of the Representative Amount to the Escrow Securityholders, it shall deposit such amount with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Escrow Securityholders (and any recipients pursuant to Section 10.04), which shall promptly distribute to each Escrow Securityholder its pro rata portion thereof (after deductions for payments pursuant to Section 10.04) based on its Escrow Percentage; provided that to the extent an Escrow Securityholder is a holder of In-the-Money Options, the Representative may deposit with the Surviving Company any portion of such amount payable to such holder of In-the-Money Options, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Company, through the Surviving Company’s payroll system, on the first normal payroll date of the Surviving Company following such deposit (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following such deposit), to distribute to each such holder the amount specified in instructions received from the Representative and, in such circumstances, the amount deposited with the Paying Agent shall be reduced accordingly.

- 5 -

1.06 Organizational Documents. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent, the Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any shares of capital stock of any of the foregoing, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company shall be amended and restated in its entirety in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C until thereafter amended, subject to Section 6.03, in accordance with the provisions thereof and the DGCL. At the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Surviving Company shall be amended and restated to be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, until thereafter amended, subject to Section 6.03, in accordance with the provisions thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company and the DGCL.

1.07 Directors and Officers. From and after the Effective Time, until successors are duly elected, appointed or otherwise designated in accordance with applicable Law, the directors of the Merger Sub at the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Company, and the officers of the Company at the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Company, each such initial director and initial officer to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Company as in effect from and after the Effective Time.

1.08 Closing Calculations. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall prepare in good faith and deliver to the Parent a statement, with reasonable supporting detail, setting forth (a) an estimated consolidated balance sheet of the Group Companies as of the Reference Time, (b) a calculation of the Company’s estimate of Cash (the “Estimated Cash”), Indebtedness (the “Estimated Indebtedness”), Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”) and Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Transaction Expenses”) and (c) the Preference Amount, the Closing Residual Cash Consideration, the Closing Payment Amount and the aggregate Closing Option Consideration (the “Estimated Closing Statement”). The Estimated Closing Statement and the determinations contained therein shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1.14 of this Agreement.

1.09 Final Closing Balance Sheet Calculation. As promptly as possible, but in any event within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, the Parent shall deliver to the Representative (a) a consolidated balance sheet of the Group Companies as of the Reference Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and (b) a statement showing the Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared and Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.14 of this Agreement. The Parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Closing Balance Sheet and determining Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses, and the related purchase price adjustment contemplated by this Section 1.09 is to measure the amount of Cash, Indebtedness, changes in Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses, and such processes are not intended to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies for the purpose of preparing the Closing Balance Sheet or determining Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital or Transaction Expenses. After delivery of the Closing Statement, the Representative and its accountants and other representatives shall be permitted full access at reasonable times to review the Surviving Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records and any work papers related to the preparation of the Closing Statement. The Representative and its accountants and other

- 6 -

representatives may make inquires of the Parent, the Surviving Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective accountants and employees regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Closing Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and the Parent shall use its, and shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to use their, commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such accountants and employees to cooperate with and respond to such inquiries. If the Representative has any objections to the Closing Statement, the Representative shall deliver to the Parent a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”). If an Objections Statement is not delivered to the Parent within sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Closing Statement, the Closing Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. The Representative and the Parent shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections, but if they do not reach a final resolution within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, the Representative and the Parent shall submit such dispute to a nationally recognized independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Representative (the “Dispute Resolution Arbiter”). Any further submissions to the Dispute Resolution Arbiter must be written and delivered to each party to the dispute. The Dispute Resolution Arbiter shall consider only those items and amounts that are identified in the Objections Statement as being items which the Representative and the Parent are unable to resolve. The Dispute Resolution Arbiter’s determination shall be based solely on the definitions of Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Transaction Expenses contained herein and the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 1.09. The Representative and the Parent shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Dispute Resolution Arbiter to resolve all disagreements as soon as practicable in amounts between the disputed amounts set forth in the Closing Statement and the Objections Statement. Further, the Dispute Resolution Arbiter’s determination shall be based solely on the presentations by the Parent and the Representative that are in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The resolution of the dispute by the Dispute Resolution Arbiter shall be final and binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Arbiter shall be allocated between the Parent, on the one hand, and the Representative (on behalf of the Escrow Securityholders), on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party. For example, if the Representative claims Net Working Capital is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by the Parent, and the Parent contests only $500 of the amount claimed by the Representative, and if the Dispute Resolution Arbiter ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Representative (for the benefit of the Securityholders) $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of arbitration shall be allocated sixty percent (60%) (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Parent and forty percent (40%) (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to the Representative (for the benefit of the Securityholders).

1.10 Post-Closing Adjustment Payment.

(a) If the Final Residual Cash Consideration is greater than the Closing Residual Cash Consideration, (i) the Parent shall promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days following the final determination of the Final Residual Cash Consideration) pay to (A) the Paying Agent (for distribution to the Securityholders) the Securityholder Percentage of the amount of such difference by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Paying Agent to

- 7 -

the Parent and (B) the Surviving Company (for distribution to the holders of the In-the-Money Options) the Optionholder Percentage of the amount of such difference by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Surviving Company and (ii) the Representative and the Parent shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to pay to the Representative the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account for the benefit of the Escrow Securityholders (and any recipients pursuant to Section 10.04), and the Representative shall deposit such amount (after deductions for payments pursuant to Section 10.04) with the Paying Agent for the benefit of the Escrow Securityholders, which shall promptly distribute to each Escrow Securityholder its pro rata portion thereof based on its Escrow Percentage.

(b) If the Final Residual Cash Consideration is less than the Closing Residual Cash Consideration, the Parent and the Representative (on behalf of the Escrow Securityholders) shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to pay to the Parent the absolute value of such difference (the “Shortfall Amount”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one (1) or more accounts designated by the Parent to the Representative. The Shortfall Amount shall be paid from the funds available in the Adjustment Escrow Account. In the event that, after such payment is made, the funds available in the Adjustment Escrow Account are in excess of the Shortfall Amount (such excess, the “Adjustment Escrow Excess Amount”), the Representative and the Parent shall simultaneously with the delivery of the instructions described in the first sentence of this Section 1.10(b), deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to pay to the Representative the Adjustment Escrow Excess Amount for the benefit of the Escrow Securityholders (and any recipients pursuant to Section 10.04), and the Representative shall deposit such amount (after deductions for payments pursuant to Section 10.04) with the Paying Agent for the benefit of the Escrow Securityholders, which shall promptly distribute to each Escrow Securityholder its pro rata portion thereof based on its Escrow Percentage. The Securityholders and the Representative shall not have any liability for any amounts due pursuant to Section 1.09 or this Section 1.10 except to the extent of the funds available in the Adjustment Escrow Account.

1.11 Escrow Account. Concurrent with the Effective Time, the Parent shall deduct from the Merger Consideration due to the Escrow Securityholders in accordance with the Escrow Securityholders Side Letter and deposit $5,000,000 (such amount, the “Adjustment Escrow Amount”) in immediately available funds into an escrow account (the “Adjustment Escrow Account”), such account to be established and maintained by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto, with such changes as may be required by the Escrow Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Representative, to be entered into on the Closing Date by the Parent, the Representative and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). The amount contained in the Adjustment Escrow Account shall serve as a security for, and the sole and exclusive source of payment of, the Parent’s rights pursuant to Section 1.10, if any. All fees, costs and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid by the Parent.

- 8 -

1.12 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under Section 262 of the DGCL, any share of Company Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is held by a Common Shareholder or Preferred Shareholder who did not consent to or vote (by a valid and enforceable proxy or otherwise) in favor of the approval of this Agreement, which Common Shareholder or Preferred Shareholder complies with all of the provisions of the DGCL relevant to the exercise and perfection of dissenters’ rights (such share being a “Dissenting Share,” and such Common Shareholder or Preferred Shareholder being a “Dissenting Stockholder”), shall not be converted into the right to receive the consideration to which the holder of such share would be entitled pursuant to Section 1.02 but rather shall be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Share pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL. If any Dissenting Stockholder fails to perfect such stockholder’s dissenters’ rights under the DGCL or effectively withdraws or otherwise loses such rights with respect to any Dissenting Shares, such Dissenting Shares shall thereupon automatically be converted into the right to receive the consideration referred to in Section 1.02, pursuant to the exchange procedures set forth in Section 1.04. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Merger is rescinded or abandoned, then the right of a stockholder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall cease. The Company shall give the Parent (a) notice of any demand for payment of the fair value of any shares of Company Stock or any attempted withdrawal of any such demand for payment and any other instrument served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to any stockholder’s dissenters’ rights and (b) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands for payment under the DGCL. The Company shall not voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demand for appraisal with respect to any Dissenting Shares without the prior written consent of the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed).

From and after the Closing until the five (5) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, provide the Representative and its authorized representatives with access (for the purpose of examining and copying), during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, to the books and records of the Group Companies with respect to periods or occurrences prior to or on the Closing Date, including with respect to any Tax audits, Tax Returns, insurance claims, governmental investigations, legal compliance, financial statement preparation or any other matter. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Representative, the Parent shall not, and shall not permit the Surviving Company or its Subsidiaries to, for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, destroy, alter or otherwise dispose of any of the books and records of any Group Company for any period prior to the Closing Date without first giving reasonable prior notice to the Representative and offering to surrender to the Representative such books and records or any portion thereof which the Parent or the Company may intend to destroy, alter or dispose of.

6.02 Notification. From the date hereof until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement and the Closing Date, if after the date of this Agreement the Parent has knowledge of any fact or condition that constitutes a breach of any representation or warranty made in Article IV or any covenant that would cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(b), as applicable, not to be satisfied as of the Closing Date, the Parent shall disclose to the Company such breach. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, unless the Company provides the Parent with a termination notice within five (5) days after disclosure of such breach by the Parent (which termination notice may only be delivered if the Company is entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(c)), the Company shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(b).

6.03 Indemnification of Officers and Directors of the Company.

(a) From and after the Closing, the Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company and each of their respective Subsidiaries to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing, an officer, director or employee of a Group Company

- 34 -

(each, a “D&O Indemnified Party”), against all Losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, Liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement of or in connection with any claim, Action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such Person is or was an officer, director or employee of a Group Company, and pertaining to any matter existing or occurring, or any acts or omissions occurring, at or prior to the Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, or at or after, the Closing (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) to the same extent that such Persons are indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses as of the date hereof by the Group Companies pursuant to their respective organizational documents and indemnification agreements of the Company, if any, in existence on the date hereof with any D&O Indemnified Party.

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Closing and at all times subject to applicable Law, (i) the Parent shall not (and shall not cause or permit any Group Company or any of the Parent’s other Subsidiaries or Affiliates to) amend or modify in any way adverse to the D&O Indemnified Parties, or to the beneficiaries thereof, the exculpation and indemnification provisions set forth in the organizational documents of the Group Companies and (ii) the Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Company as of the date hereof (the “Current Policies”) (provided, that the Parent may substitute such policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the Parent shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent that such premiums exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the premiums paid as of the date hereof by or on behalf of the Company for the Current Policies (the “Premium Amount”), and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed the Premium Amount, then the Parent shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance that provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to the Premium Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the Closing and in satisfaction of the Parent’s foregoing obligations under this Section 6.03, each of the Parent and the Company shall be permitted to purchase (at the Parent’s expense, and without duplication) a six (6) year “tail” prepaid directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (the “D&O Tail”), effective as of the Closing, providing, for a period of six (6) years after the Closing, the coverage and amounts, and terms and conditions, contemplated by the foregoing sentence of this Section 6.03(b); provided, that the Company shall not pay an aggregate amount for such D&O Tail in excess of the Premium Amount unless such excess amount is paid on behalf of the Company. From and after the Closing, the Parent shall (and/or shall cause the Group Companies or its other subsidiaries or Affiliates, as applicable, to) continue to honor its obligations under any such insurance procured pursuant to this Section 6.03(b), and shall not cancel (or permit to be canceled) or take (or cause to be taken) any action or omission that would reasonably be expected to result in the cancellation thereof.

(c) The Parent agrees to pay, or to cause the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay, all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by the D&O Indemnified Parties in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided for in this Section 6.03.

- 35 -

(d) If the Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns proposes to (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and the Parent or the Surviving Company shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made prior to or concurrently with the consummation of such transaction so that the successors and assigns of the Parent or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall, from and after the consummation of such transaction, honor the indemnification and other obligations set forth in this Section 6.03.

(e) With respect to any indemnification obligations of the Parent and/or the Company pursuant to this Section 6.03, Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees (i) that it and the Company shall be the indemnitors of first resort with respect to all indemnification obligations of Parent and/or the Company pursuant to this Section 6.03 (i.e., their obligations to an applicable D&O Indemnified Party are primary and any obligation of any other Person to advance expenses or to provide indemnification and/or insurance for the same expenses or Liabilities incurred by such D&O Indemnified Party are secondary) and (ii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases any such other Person from any and all claims for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof.

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and the Effective Time and (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Party and his or her successors, heirs and representatives and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Parent and the Surviving Company and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

6.04 Regulatory Filings. The Parent shall, promptly (i) (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the date hereof, make or cause to be made all filings and submissions under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws with respect to the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 6.04(a) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein (which filings and submissions shall seek early termination if made pursuant to the HSR Act and the equivalent, if available, with respect to any such other applicable Antitrust Laws) and (ii) provide or cause to be provided the notices or filings set forth on Schedule 6.04(b).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a suit or other Action is threatened or instituted by any Governmental Entity or any other entity challenging the validity or legality or seeking to restrain the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Parent and the Merger Sub shall use their best efforts to avoid, resist, resolve or, if necessary, defend such suit or action and shall afford the Company a reasonable opportunity to participate therein. The Parent shall diligently assist and cooperate with the Company in preparing and filing any and all written communications that are to be submitted to any Governmental Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in obtaining any governmental or third party consents, waivers, authorizations or approvals which may be required to be obtained by any Group Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, which assistance and cooperation shall include: (i) timely furnishing to the Company all information concerning the Parent and/or its Affiliates that counsel to the Company reasonably determines is required to be included in such documents or would be helpful in obtaining such required consent, waiver, authorization or approval; (ii) promptly providing the Company with copies of all written communications to or from any Governmental Entity relating to any Antitrust Law; provided that such copies may be redacted as necessary to address legal privilege or confidentiality concerns or to comply with applicable Law; and provided further, that portions of such copies that are competitively sensitive may be designated as “outside antitrust counsel only”; (iii) keeping the Company reasonably informed of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case regarding the Merger; and (iv) permitting the Company to review and incorporate the Company’s reasonable comments in any communication given by it to any Governmental Entity or in connection with any proceeding related to the HSR Act, in each case regarding the Merger.

The Parent shall be responsible for all filing fees under the HSR Act and under any other Antitrust Laws applicable to the Parent.

The parties acknowledge and agree that nothing contained

The Company may, additionally, on behalf of the Securityholders, enforce such award and accept damages for such willful breach. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 9.01(e), then the Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds a termination fee of $30,000,000 (Thirty Million Dollars), within five (5) Business Days of such termination (the “Termination Fee”), it being understood that in no event shall the Parent be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c) Each of the Parties acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.02 and in Section 12.19 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement and (ii) payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.02(b) shall constitute reasonable liquidated damages for the Company’s time, effort and expense in connection with pursuing the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not constitute a penalty.

For the avoidance of any doubt, while the Company may pursue both (i) a grant of specific performance in accordance with Section 12.19(b) and (ii) the payment of the Termination Fee under Section 9.02(b) in the event of a termination pursuant to Section 9.01(e), under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance with regard to the Closing or the type contemplated by Section 12.19(b) and the Termination Fee.

12.19 Specific Performance.

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching Party may have no adequate remedy at Law. Accordingly, the Parties agree that prior to a valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Agreement, subject to and without limiting Section 12.19(b) below (if applicable), such non-breaching Party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor at Law or in equity, to enforce its rights and the other Party’s obligations hereunder not only by an Action or Actions for damages but also by an Action or Actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security). Subject to Section 12.19(b), each of the Parties agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives (x) any defenses in any Action for an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief, including the defense that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity, and (y) any requirement under Law to post a bond, undertaking or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions hereof or otherwise, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the Parent’s or the Merger Sub’s obligations to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to close if and only if (i) all conditions in Section 7.01 have been satisfied or waived (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing itself, each of which is capable of being, and is, satisfied or waived upon the Closing) at the time when the Closing would have occurred pursuant to the terms hereof and remain satisfied or waived, (ii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to the Parent that (A) all conditions set forth in Section 7.02 have been satisfied (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing itself, each of which is capable of being, and is, satisfied upon the Closing) or that it is willing to waive any unsatisfied conditions in Section 7.02 at the Closing and (B) if specific performance is granted and the Debt Financing is funded then the Closing will occur and (iii) either the Debt Financing has been funded or the Financing Sources have irrevocably indicated that they are immediately ready, willing and able to fund the Debt Financing if the Closing simultaneously occurs.

(c) To the extent any Party brings any Action, claim, complaint or other proceeding, in each case, before any Governmental Entity to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement prior to the Closing, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action, claim, complaint or other proceeding is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action, claim, complaint or other proceeding.

12.20 Waiver of Conflicts. Recognizing that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (“WF&G”) has acted as legal counsel to certain of the Securityholders (including Warburg Pincus and its Affiliates) and the Company, its Affiliates and the Group Companies prior to the Closing, and that WF&G intends to act as legal counsel to certain of the Securityholders (including Warburg Pincus and its Affiliates) after the Closing, each of the Parent and the Surviving Company (including on behalf of the Group Companies) hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with WF&G representing any of the Securityholders (including Warburg Pincus and its Affiliates) and/or its Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to the Parent, any Group Company or the transactions contemplated herein. In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between any Securityholders (including Warburg Pincus and its Affiliates) and its Affiliates in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to such Securityholders and their Affiliates (and not the Group Companies or the Surviving Company). Accordingly, the Group Companies and the Surviving Company shall not have access to any such communications, or to the files of WF&G relating to engagement, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) the applicable Securityholders and their Affiliates (and not the Group Companies or the Surviving Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the Group Companies or the Surviving Company shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of WF&G in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the applicable Securityholders and their Affiliates (and not the Group Companies or the Surviving Company) shall hold such property rights and (iii) WF&G shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any of the Group Companies or the Surviving Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between WF&G and any of the Group Companies or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between the Parent, the Surviving Company or any of the Group Companies and a third party (other than a party to this Agreement or any of their respective Affiliates) after the Closing, the Surviving Company (including on behalf of the Group Companies) may asset the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by WF&G to such third party; provided, however, that neither the Surviving Company nor any of the Group Companies may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Representative, on behalf of the Securityholders.
