(ii) From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, the share transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of any shares of Company Common Stock.

(c) Exchange Procedures. As soon as possible after the Company Merger Effective Time (but, in any event, no later than three (3) Business Days following the Company Merger Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail (and to make available for collection by hand) to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates that immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii): (i) a letter of transmittal (a “Letter of Transmittal”) which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof), to the Exchange Agent, which Letter of Transmittal shall be in such form and have such other customary provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree upon, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement, together with any amounts payable in respect of the Fractional Share Consideration in accordance with Section 3.8 and dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.3(e). Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) to the Exchange Agent, together with such Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, plus any Fractional Share Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.8 and any amounts that such holder has the right to receive in respect of dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.3(e) to be mailed or delivered by wire transfer, as soon as reasonably practicable following the later to occur of (A) the Company Merger Effective Time or (B) the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof), and such Certificate so surrendered shall be forthwith canceled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the

-26-

satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.3, each Certificate shall be deemed, at any time after the Company Merger Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article III. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof).

(d) Book-Entry Shares. Any holder of Book-Entry Shares that immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii) shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Merger Consideration (or any amounts payable in respect of the Fractional Share Consideration in accordance with Section 3.8 or distribution to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.3(e)) that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III. In lieu thereof, each registered holder of one or more Book-Entry Shares that immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii) shall automatically upon the Company Merger Effective Time be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company Merger Effective Time, the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii), together with any amounts payable in respect of the Fractional Share Consideration in accordance with Section 3.8 and any distribution to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.3(e) for each Book-Entry Share. Payment of the Merger Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration and distributions with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon the conversion of any Book-Entry Share.

(e) Dividends with Respect to Parent Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Company Merger Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or unsurrendered Book-Entry Share with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable hereunder in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or the conversion of such Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Company Merger Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Company Merger Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

-27-

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock) which remains undistributed to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock for six (6) months after the Company Merger Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any former holders of shares of Company Common Stock prior to the Company Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent and only as general creditors thereof for payment of the Merger Consideration subject to the terms and conditions of this Article III.

(g) No Liability. None of the Parent Parties, the Company Parties, the Exchange Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent or Affiliate thereof, shall be liable to any Person if any portion of the Exchange Fund has been delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any such shares immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of any claims or interest of such holders or their successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

(h) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest the cash portion of the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent. Any net profit resulting from, or interest or other income produced by, such investments shall be paid to Parent. No investment of the Exchange Fund shall relieve Parent or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Article III. To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to make prompt payments of any of the cash payments contemplated by Section 3.3(e) or Section 3.8, Parent shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable, replace or restore the portion of the Exchange Fund lost through investments or other events so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is, at all times, maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments in accordance with Section 3.3(e) and Section 3.8.

Section 3.4 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and, to the extent required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration and any dividends or distributions to which such holder of shares of Company Common Stock is entitled pursuant to this Article III.

Section 3.5 Withholding Rights. Each of the Parties, each of their respective Representatives and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and the Fractional Share Consideration (and any other consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or deemed paid for Tax purposes), such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payments under the Code, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. Any such amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

-28-

Section 3.6 Dissenters’ Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Mergers or other transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 3.7 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of Company Common Stock, Partnership OP Units, shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Partnership Units, as the case may be), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the number of shares of Company Common Stock, Partnership OP Units, shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Partnership Units, as the case may be, outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and the Partnership Merger Effective Time, as applicable, so as to provide Parent and the holders of Company Common Stock and Partnership OP Units with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 3.8 No Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares evidencing shares of Company Common Stock or the conversion of Company Equity Awards pursuant to Section 3.2, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by the VWAP of Parent Common Stock.

Section 3.9 Structure. The Company Parties and the Parent Parties shall reasonably and in good faith consider restructuring the Partnership Merger as a direct merger of the Partnership with and into Parent OP, with Parent OP continuing as the surviving entity, and if the Company Parties and the Parent Parties mutually agree (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld) to such restructuring, they shall reasonably and in good faith negotiate an appropriate amendment to this Agreement; provided that any such restructuring shall not have an adverse effect on the Company, its Subsidiaries or the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, including any adverse effect on the time by which the Mergers may be consummated.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1(c), (i) if, on a date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, the Company shall make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Company Stockholder Meeting solely for the purpose of and for the times reasonably necessary to solicit additional proxies and votes in favor of the approval of this Agreement; provided, that the Company Stockholder Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date that is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any postponement or adjournments required by applicable Law) without the consent of Parent and (ii) if, on a date for which the Parent Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, Parent has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, Parent shall make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Parent

-77-

Stockholder Meeting solely for the purpose of and for the times reasonably necessary to solicit additional proxies and votes in favor of the approval of the Parent Common Stock Issuance; provided, that the Parent Stockholder Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date that is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the Parent Stockholder Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any postponement or adjournments required by applicable Law) without the consent of the Company.

Section 7.2 Other Filings. In connection with and without limiting the obligations under Section 7.1, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company Parties and the Parent Parties each shall (or shall cause their applicable Subsidiaries to) use their commercially reasonable efforts to properly prepare and file any other filings required under the Exchange Act or any other Law relating to the Mergers (collectively, the “Other Filings”). Each of the Parties shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) promptly notify the other Parties of the receipt of any comments on, or any request for amendments or supplements to, any of the Other Filings by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or official, and each of the Parties shall supply the other Parties with copies of all correspondence between it and each of its Subsidiaries and representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the members of its staff or any other appropriate governmental official, on the other hand, with respect to any of the Other Filings, except, in each case, that confidential competitively sensitive business information may be redacted from such exchanges. Each of the Parties shall promptly obtain and furnish the other Parties with (a) the information which may be reasonably required in order to make such Other Filings and (b) any additional information which may be requested by a Governmental Authority and which the applicable producing Party reasonably deems appropriate to produce to such Governmental Authority; provided that the Parties may, as they deem advisable and necessary, designate any sensitive materials provided to the other under this Section 7.2 as “outside counsel only” (in which case such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, trustees or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the Party providing such materials). Without limiting the foregoing, each Party shall (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any request by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or official for information, documents or other materials in connection with the review of the Other Filings or the transactions contemplated hereby; and (ii) provide to the other Party, and permit the other Party to review and comment in advance of submission, all proposed correspondence, filings, and written communications to the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or official with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent reasonably practicable, neither the Company nor Parent shall, nor shall they permit their respective Representatives to, participate independently in any meeting or engage in any substantive conversation with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry without giving the other Party prior notice of such meeting or conversation and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, without giving the other party the opportunity to attend or participate (whether by telephone or in person) in any such meeting with such Governmental Authority.

Section 7.3 Additional Agreements. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, but subject to the obligation to act in good faith, and subject at all times to the Company’s and its directors’ and Parent’s and its directors’, as applicable, right and duty to act in a manner consistent with their duties, each of the Parties agrees to use its commercially

-78-

reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the Mergers and to cooperate with each other in connection with the foregoing, including the taking of such actions as are necessary to obtain any necessary or as reasonably determined by Parent and the Company advisable consents, approvals, orders, exemptions, waivers and authorizations by or from (or to give any notice to) any public or private third party, including any that are required to be obtained or made under any Law or any contract, agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary or Parent, Parent OP or any Parent Subsidiary, as applicable, is a party or by which any of their respective properties or assets are bound, to defend all lawsuits or other legal proceedings challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Mergers, to effect all necessary registrations and Other Filings and submissions of information requested by a Governmental Authority, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be lifted or rescinded any injunction or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of the Parties to consummate the Mergers.

Section 7.4 Acquisition Proposals; Changes in Recommendation.

(a) Except as expressly provided in this Section 7.4, from and after the date hereof, each of Parent and the Company shall not, shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers and directors not to, and shall instruct and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and its respective Subsidiaries’ other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) any inquiries, indications of interest or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any negotiations or discussions concerning, or provide any nonpublic information or data to any Person relating to, an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiries, proposals, indications of interest or offers that constitute, or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) approve or execute or enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, asset purchase or share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement relating to any Acquisition Proposal (an “Acquisition Agreement”), or (iv) propose or agree to do any of the foregoing. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.4(a) shall not prohibit Parent, the Company or their respective Representatives from informing any Third Party of the terms of this Section 7.4 and referring such Third Party to any publicly-available copy of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parent Board and the Company Board shall be permitted to take the following actions, prior to the Parent Stockholder Meeting or the Company Stockholder Meeting, respectively, in response to an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (as applicable) by a Person made to it after the date of this Agreement (provided that the Acquisition Proposal by such Person did not result from a breach of Section 7.4(a) or Section 7.4(c) by Parent, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives or the Company, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives, respectively and as applicable) and which the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors) either constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal (as applicable), if the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that failure to do so

-79-

would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with their duties as members of the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, under applicable Law: (A) engage in discussions and negotiations regarding such Acquisition Proposal with the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal, and (B) provide any nonpublic information or data to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal after entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Person; provided, however, that, prior to taking any of the actions described in the immediately preceding clause (A) and clause (B), Parent or the Company, as applicable, must comply with its obligations under Section 7.4(b)(ii) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal and must notify the Company or Parent, respectively and as applicable, that it intends to take such action with respect to such Acquisition Proposal. Each of Parent and the Company shall provide the other Party with a copy of any nonpublic information or data provided to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal prior to or simultaneously with furnishing such information to such Person to the extent such nonpublic information or data has not been previously provided to the other Party, as applicable. For purposes of this Section 7.4(b), an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement” means, as applicable, a confidentiality agreement between Parent or the Company, on the one hand, and a counterparty, on the other hand, having confidentiality and use provisions that are no more favorable as a whole to such counterparty than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to the Company or Parent, as applicable, and which agreement does not prohibit the Company from complying with its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that such confidentiality agreement shall not contain any standstill.

(ii) Each of Parent and the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than thirty-six (36) hours) notify the Company or Parent, respectively and as applicable, orally, and promptly thereafter in writing, of the receipt by Parent, Parent OP, the Parent Board or any of their respective Representatives, in the case of Parent, or the Company, the Partnership, the Company Board or any of their respective Representatives, in the case of the Company, of any inquiry, proposal, indication of interest or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice shall indicate the identity of the Person making such inquiry, proposal, indication of interest or offer, and the material terms and conditions of, such inquiry, proposal, indication of interest or offer (including a copy thereof if in writing and any material documentation or correspondence that sets forth any such terms). Each of Parent and the Company shall (A) promptly (but in no event later than thirty-six (36) hours) notify the other Party, as applicable, orally and promptly thereafter in writing, of any changes or modifications to the material terms of the Acquisition Proposal and (B) keep the other Party, as applicable, reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis regarding material developments, discussions and negotiations concerning any such Acquisition Proposal.

(iii) Except as provided in Section 7.4(b)(iv) or Section 7.4(b)(v), neither the Parent Board, the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (A) withhold or withdraw, or qualify or modify in any manner adverse to the Company Parties, the Parent Recommendation, or to the Parent Parties, the Company Recommendation, as applicable, (B) adopt, approve or recommend any Acquisition Proposal (or any transaction or series of related transactions included within the definition of an Acquisition Proposal), (C) fail to include the Parent Recommendation or

-80-

the Company Recommendation, as applicable, in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, (D) fail to recommend against any Acquisition Proposal subject to Regulation 14D promulgated under the Exchange Act in any solicitation or recommendation statement made on Schedule 14D-9 within ten (10) Business Days after the other Party so requests in writing, (E) if an Acquisition Proposal or any material modification thereof is made public or is otherwise sent to the holders of shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock, as applicable, fail to issue a press release or other public communication that reaffirms the Parent Recommendation or the Company Recommendation, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days after the other Party so requests in writing, (F) authorize, cause or permit Parent or the Company, as applicable, or any of its respective Affiliates to enter into any Acquisition Agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with Section 7.4(b)(i)), or (G) propose, resolve or agree to take any action set forth in the foregoing clauses (A) through (F) (any such action set forth in this Section 7.4(b)(iii) with respect to the Company Recommendation, a “Change in Company Recommendation” and with respect to the Parent Recommendation, a “Change in Parent Recommendation”).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, (x) at any time prior to the receipt of the Parent Stockholder Approval, the Parent Board may make a Change in Parent Recommendation and (y) at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may make a Change in Company Recommendation and/or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(e), in each case of clauses (x) and (y) (as applicable), if and only if (A) an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (provided that the Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of Section 7.4(a) or Section 7.4(c) by Parent, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives or the Company, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives, respectively and as applicable) is made to Parent or the Company, as applicable, and is not withdrawn, (B) the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, (C) the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with their duties as members of the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, under applicable Law, (D) four (4) Business Days (the “Notice Period”) shall have elapsed since Parent or the Company, as applicable, has given written notice to the other Party advising the other Party that Parent or the Company, as applicable, intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, including the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal that is the basis of the proposed action (a “Superior Proposal Notice”), which Superior Proposal Notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a Change in Parent Recommendation or a Change in Company Recommendation, as applicable, for any purpose of this Agreement, (E) during such Notice Period, Parent or the Company, as applicable, has considered and, if requested by the other Party, engaged and caused its Representatives to engage in good faith discussions with the other Party regarding any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed by the other Party, and (F) the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, following such Notice Period, again concludes in good

-81-

faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by the other Party) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with their duties as members of the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, under applicable Law and that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (1) if, during the Notice Period, any material revisions are made to the Superior Proposal (it being understood that a material revision shall include any change in the purchase price or form of consideration in such Superior Proposal), the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, shall give a new Superior Proposal Notice to the other Party prior to the expiration of the Notice Period and shall comply in all respects with the requirements of this Section 7.4(b)(iv) and the Notice Period shall thereafter expire on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the date of the delivery of such new Superior Proposal Notice (provided that the delivery of a new Superior Proposal Notice shall in no event shorten the four (4) Business Day duration applicable to the initial Notice Period) and (2) in the event the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, does not determine in accordance with the immediately preceding clause (F) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, but thereafter determines to make a Change in Parent Recommendation or a Change in Company Recommendation, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 7.4 or (with respect to the Company and the Company Board only) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(e) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (whether from the same or different Person), the foregoing procedures and requirements referred to in this Section 7.4(b)(iv) shall apply anew prior to the taking of any such actions.

(v) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in circumstances not involving or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, (I) at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may make a Change in Company Recommendation (but only as set forth in clauses (A) or (C) or, to the extent related to clauses (A) or (C), clause (G) of Section 7.4(b)(iii)) and (II) at any time prior to the receipt of the Parent Stockholder Approval, the Parent Board may make a Change in Parent Recommendation (but only as set forth in clauses (A) or (C) or, to the extent related to clauses (A) or (C), clause (G) of Section 7.4(b)(iii)), as applicable, if and only if (A) an Intervening Event has occurred with respect to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or with respect to Parent or the Parent Subsidiaries, respectively and as applicable, (B) the Company Board or the Parent Board, as applicable, has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with their duties as members of the Company Board or Parent Board, as applicable, under applicable Law, (C) four (4) Business Days (the “Intervening Event Notice Period”) shall have elapsed since the applicable Party has given written notice (which written notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a Change in Company Recommendation or Change in Parent Recommendation, as applicable, for any purpose of this Agreement) to the other Party advising that such Party intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, (D) during such Intervening Event Notice Period, such Party has considered and, if requested by the other Party, engaged and caused its Representatives to engage in good faith discussions with such other Party, regarding any adjustment or

-82-

modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed by such other Party, and (E) the Company Board or the Parent Board, as applicable, following such Intervening Event Notice Period, again concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors, and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed by the other Party) that failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with their duties as members of the Company Board or Parent Board, as applicable, under applicable Law; provided, however, that in the event the Company Board or the Parent Board, as applicable does not make such a Change in Company Recommendation or a Change in Parent Recommendation, as applicable, following such Intervening Event Notice Period, but thereafter determines to make such a Change in Company Recommendation or a Change in Parent Recommendation, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 7.4(b)(v) in circumstances not involving an Acquisition Proposal, the foregoing procedures and requirements referred to in this Section 7.4(b)(v) shall apply anew prior to the taking of any such actions.

(vi) Nothing contained in this Section 7.4 shall prohibit Parent or the Company from (A) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making a statement contemplated by Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, (B) making any other disclosure to its stockholders with regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or an Acquisition Proposal that the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, reasonably determines (after consultation with its outside counsel) is required by applicable Law or (C) issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder; provided, however, that any such disclosure that addresses the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, with respect to this Agreement or an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a change in Parent Recommendation or a Change in Company Recommendation, as applicable, unless the Parent Board or the Company Board, as applicable, in connection with such communication publicly states that the Parent Recommendation or the Company Recommendation, as applicable, has not changed or refers to the prior recommendation of Parent or the Company, as applicable, without disclosing any Change in Parent Recommendation or Change in Company Recommendation, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Parent Board nor the Company Board may make a Change in Parent Recommendation or a Change in Company Recommendation, as applicable, unless in compliance with Section 7.4(b)(iv) or Section 7.4(b)(v).

(c) Upon execution of this Agreement, each of Parent and the Company agrees that it will and will cause its Subsidiaries, and its and their Representatives to, (i) cease immediately and terminate any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Third Parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) terminate any such Third Party’s access to any physical or electronic data rooms and (iii) request that any such Third Party and its Representatives (A) destroy or return all confidential information concerning such Party or its Subsidiaries furnished by or on behalf of such Party or any of its Subsidiaries and (B) destroy all analyses and other materials prepared by or on behalf of such Person that contain, reflect or analyze such confidential information, in the case of the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the applicable

-83-

confidentiality agreement between such Party or any of its Subsidiaries and such Person. Each of Parent and the Company agrees that it will promptly inform its and its Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 7.4. Any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.4 by any officer, director or investment banker of such Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.4 by such Party for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding any Change in Company Recommendation, unless such Change in Company Recommendation is with respect to a Superior Proposal and this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(e), the Company shall cause the approval of this Agreement to be submitted to a vote of its stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting. Notwithstanding any Change in Parent Recommendation, Parent shall cause the approval of the Parent Common Stock Issuance to be submitted to a vote of its stockholders at the Parent Stockholder Meeting.

(e) Without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), approval of this Agreement is the only matter, other than any say-on-golden parachute vote that may be required pursuant to Section 14A(b)(2) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-21(c) thereunder and a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Company Stockholder Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies, in the event there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, that the Company shall propose to be acted on by its stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting. Without the prior written consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), approval of Parent Common Stock Issuance is the only matter, other than a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Parent Stockholder Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies, in the event there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Parent Stockholder Meeting to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval, that Parent shall propose to be acted on by its stockholders at the Parent Stockholder Meeting.

(f) Neither Parent nor the Company shall submit to the vote of its stockholders any Acquisition Proposal other than the Mergers prior to the termination of this Agreement. In addition, except as part of a Change in Parent Recommendation otherwise permitted under this Section 7.4, prior to the termination of this Agreement, neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries shall file a proxy statement (including in preliminary form) with respect to, or publicly announce the entry into a definitive agreement providing for, an Acquisition Proposal (excluding the effects of clause (2) of such definition for purposes of this sentence) if such Acquisition Proposal would require a vote of Parent’s stockholders in connection with such Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that nothing in this sentence is intended to modify the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 6.2, Section 7.1 or Section 7.4).

Section 7.5 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, Parent (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall (or shall cause Parent OP to), for a period of six (6) years from the Company Merger Effective Time: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each person who is at the date hereof, was previously, or is during any of the period from the date hereof until the

-84-

Company Merger Effective Time, serving as a manager, director, officer, trustee or fiduciary of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and acting in such capacity (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) to the fullest extent that an Indiana corporation is permitted to indemnify and hold harmless its own such Persons under the applicable Laws of the State of Indiana, as now or hereafter in effect, in connection with any Claim with respect to matters occurring on or before the Company Merger Effective Time and any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, Claim Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) relating to or resulting from such Claim; and (ii) promptly pay on behalf of or advance to each of the Indemnified Parties, to the fullest extent that an Indiana corporation is permitted to indemnify and hold harmless its own such Persons under the applicable Laws of the State of Indiana, as now or hereafter in effect, any Claim Expenses incurred in defending, serving as a witness with respect to or otherwise participating with respect to any Claim in advance of the final disposition of such Claim, including payment on behalf of or advancement to the Indemnified Party of any Claim Expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with enforcing any rights with respect to such indemnification and/or advancement, in each case without the requirement of any bond or other security, but subject to Parent’s receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party to repay such Claim Expenses if it is ultimately determined under applicable Laws or any of the Company Governing Documents that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Company Merger Effective Time, any Indemnified Party delivers to Parent a written notice asserting that indemnification is required in accordance with this Section 7.5 with respect to a Claim, then the provisions for indemnification contained in this Section 7.5 with respect to such Claim shall survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Company Merger Effective Time and shall continue to apply until such time as such Claim is fully and finally resolved. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in, or seek termination with respect to, any actual or threatened Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or judgment includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Parties from all liability arising out of such Claim. No Indemnified Party shall be liable for any amounts paid in any settlement effected without its prior express written consent. No Indemnified Party shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in, or seek termination with respect to, any actual or threatened Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Parent Parties agrees that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers, trustees, agents or fiduciaries of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries as provided in the Company Governing Documents and indemnification or similar agreements of the Company shall survive the Company Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and shall not be amended, repealed or modified in a manner adverse to the Indemnified parties, for a period of six (6) years following the Company Merger Effective Time; provided that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Company Merger Effective Time, any Indemnified Party delivers to Parent a written notice asserting that indemnification is required in accordance with this Section 7.5 with respect to a Claim, then the provisions for indemnification contained in this Section 7.5 with respect to such Claim shall survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Company Merger Effective Time and shall continue to apply until such time as such Claim is fully and finally resolved.

-85-

(c) Prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, the Company shall obtain and fully pay the premium for, and Parent shall maintain in full force and effect (and the obligations under to be honored), during the six (6) year period beginning on the date of the Company Merger Effective Time, a “tail” prepaid directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy or policies (which policy or policies by their respective express terms shall survive the Mergers) from the Company’s current insurance carrier or an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier, of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability policy or policies for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for Claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate premium payable for such “tail” insurance policy exceed an amount equal to 250% of the annual premium paid by the Company for its directors’ and officers’ liability insurance as set forth in Section 7.5(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (such amount being the “Maximum Premium”). If the Company is unable to obtain the “tail” insurance described in the first sentence of this Section 7.5(c) for an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Premium, the Company shall be entitled to obtain as much comparable “tail” insurance as reasonably available for an aggregate cost equal to the Maximum Premium.

(d) If any of Parent or its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges with or into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company, partnership or other entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) liquidates, dissolves or winds-up, or transfers or conveys 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 of Parent shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.5.

(e) The provisions of this Section 7.5 are intended to be for the express benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party referred to in this Section 7.5 (who are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.5), his or her heirs and his or her personal representatives, shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent and the Company, and shall not be amended in a manner that is adverse to the Indemnified Party (including his or her successors, assigns and heirs) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (including any such successors, assigns and heirs) affected thereby. The exculpation and indemnification provided for by this Section 7.5 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or exculpation which an Indemnified Party and other Person referred to in this Section 7.5 is entitled, whether pursuant to applicable Law, contract or otherwise.

-86-

Section 7.6 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) During the Interim Period, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and contracts, each Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) furnish the Company or Parent, as applicable, with such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the business, properties, offices, books, contracts, records and personnel of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, as applicable, as the Company or Parent, as applicable, may from time to time reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and subject to the terms of the Company Leases, facilitate reasonable access for Parent and its authorized Representatives during normal business hours, and upon reasonable advance notice, to all Company Properties; provided, however, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall affect or be deemed to modify any of the representations or warranties made by the Company Parties or the Parent Parties, as applicable, hereto and all such access shall be coordinated through the Company or Parent, as applicable, or its respective designated Representatives, in accordance with such reasonable procedures as they may establish. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor Parent shall be required by this Section 7.6 to provide the other Party or the Representatives of such other Party with access to or to disclose information (A) that is subject to the terms of a confidentiality agreement with a Third Party entered into prior to the date of this Agreement or entered into after the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice (if the Company or Parent, as applicable, has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain permission or consent of such Third Party to such disclosure), (B) the disclosure of which would violate any Law or legal duty of the Party or any of its Representatives (provided, however, that the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure not in violation of such Law or legal duty), (C) that is subject to any attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege or would cause a risk of a loss of privilege to the disclosing Party (provided, however, that the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure that does not result in a loss of such attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege) or (D) if it reasonably determines that such access is reasonably likely to materially disrupt, impair or interfere with its, or its Subsidiaries’, business or operations; provided, however, that the Parties will work in good faith to determine a means to provide access that will not materially disrupt, impair or interfere with such business or operations.

(d) Parent and the Company shall take the actions described in Section 7.8(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, Parent shall use, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to use, commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Parent Employee Program in which any Continuing Employee participates that provides health or welfare benefits to (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions, waiting periods and service conditions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Continuing Employees, other than limitations applicable under the corresponding Company Employee Program or to the extent that such preexisting condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Company Employee Program and (ii) honor any payments, charges and

None of Parent or the Company shall take any action, or fail to take any action, that would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Merger to fail to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Provided the Company shall have received the opinion of counsel referred to in Section 8.3(e) and Parent shall have received the opinion of counsel referred to in Section 8.2(e), the Parties shall treat the Company Merger as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code and no Party shall take any position for Tax purposes inconsistent therewith, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, if, to the Company’s Knowledge or Parent’s Knowledge, as applicable, the occurrence of any state of facts or Event would cause, or would reasonably be expected to cause, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VIII not to be satisfied or satisfaction to be reasonably delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the failure by the Company, Parent or their respective Representatives to provide such prompt notice under Section 7.10(a), this Section 7.10(b) or Section 7.10(c) shall not constitute a breach of covenant for purposes of Section 8.2(b) or Section 8.3(b).

Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries in performing their obligations under this Section 7.18, and Parent shall indemnify the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to the extent arising therefrom (and in the event the Mergers and

the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, Parent shall promptly reimburse the Company for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries not previously reimbursed), other than any such liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties that result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Company or any Company Subsidiary or from their failure to comply with any instructions of Parent with respect to any such actions.

(b) During the Interim Period, Parent or one or more of its Subsidiaries may (i) commence any of the following: (A) one or more offers to purchase any or all of the outstanding debt issued under the Company Notes Indentures for cash (the “Offers to Purchase”); or (B) one or more offers to exchange any or all of the outstanding debt issued under the Company Notes Indentures for securities issued by the Partnership or any of its Affiliates (the “Offers to Exchange”); and (ii) solicit the consent of the holders of debt issued under the Company Notes Indentures regarding certain proposed amendments thereto (the “Consent Solicitations” and, together with the Offers to Purchase and Offers to Exchange, if any, the “Note Offers and Consent Solicitations”); provided that any such notice or offer shall expressly reflect that, and it shall be the case that, the closing of any such transaction shall not be consummated until the Closing and such transaction shall be funded using consideration provided by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (or by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries if the payment thereof is to be made at or after the Closing). Any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations shall be made on such terms and conditions (including price to be paid and

-98-

conditionality) as are proposed by Parent and which are permitted by the terms of the applicable Company Notes Indenture and applicable Laws, including SEC rules and regulations. Parent shall consult with the Company regarding the material terms and conditions of any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations, including the timing and commencement of any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations and any tender deadlines. Parent shall have provided the Company with the necessary offer to purchase, offer to exchange, consent solicitation statement, letter of transmittal, press release, if any, in connection therewith, and each other document relevant to the transaction that will be distributed by Parent in the applicable Note Offers and Consent Solicitations (collectively, the “Debt Offer Documents”) a reasonable period of time in advance of commencing the applicable Note Offers and Consent Solicitations to allow the Company and its counsel to review and comment on such Debt Offer Documents, and Parent shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made or input provided by the Company and its legal counsel. Subject to the receipt of the requisite holder consents, in connection with any or all of the Consent Solicitations, the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture to each of the Company Notes Indentures in accordance with the terms thereof amending the terms and provisions thereof as described in the applicable Debt Offer Documents in a form as reasonably requested by Parent; provided that the amendments effected by such supplemental indentures shall not become operative until the Closing. During the Interim Period, at Parent’s sole expense, the Company shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its and their Representatives to, provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent to assist Parent in connection with any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations (including using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s independent accountants to provide customary consents for use of their reports to the extent required in connection with any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations); provided that neither the Company nor counsel for the Company shall be required to furnish any certificates, legal opinions or negative assurance letters in connection with any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations other than, in connection with the execution of (i) any supplemental indenture relating to the Consent Solicitations, with respect to which the Company shall (x) deliver customary officers’ certificates and (y) customary legal opinions to the trustee under the applicable Company Notes Indenture in the form required by the applicable Company Notes Indenture or (ii) any dealer manager agreement or other similar agreement, with respect to which the Company shall deliver customary legal opinions to the dealer manager or other similar agent in the form required by the applicable dealer manager agreement, but only if such opinion is required to be delivered at or prior to Closing, in each case, to the extent such certificates and opinions would not conflict with applicable Laws. The dealer manager, solicitation agent, information agent, depositary or other agent retained in connection with any Note Offers and Consent Solicitations will be selected and retained by Parent. If, at any time prior to the completion of the Note Offers and Consent Solicitations, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, or Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, discovers any information that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Debt Offer Documents, so that the Debt Offer Documents shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, such party that discovers such information shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the other Party, and an appropriate amendment or supplement prepared by Parent describing such information shall be disseminated to the holders of the notes outstanding under the Company Notes Indentures.

(iv) if this Agreement is terminated under circumstances in which Parent is required to pay the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.3(b) or Section 9.3(d) and the Termination Fee is paid to the Company (or its designee), the payment of the Termination Fee will be the Company Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy against the Parent Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, except in the case of fraud or a Willful Breach of this Agreement by any of the Parent Parties.

(h) Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) neither the Termination Fee nor the Expense Amount is a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent or the Company, as applicable, in the circumstances in which such amounts are due and payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amounts would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision, and (iii) without these agreements, neither Parent nor the Company would enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if either Parent or the Company fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 9.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, the other Party commences a suit that results in a judgment against Parent or the Company, as applicable, for the payment of any amount set forth in this Section 9.3, Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall pay the other Party its costs and Expenses in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at the annual rate of the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition on the date of payment for the period from the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

Section 9.4 Payment of Expense Amount or Termination Fee.

(a) In the event that Parent or the Company is obligated to pay the other Party the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall pay to the other Party from the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee deposited into escrow in accordance with the next sentence, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, and (ii) the sum of (A) the maximum amount that can be paid to such other Party (or its designee) without causing such other Party (or its designee) to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code for the relevant tax year, determined as if the payment of such amount did not constitute income described in Sections 856(c)(2)(A) through (H) or 856(c)(3)(A) through (I) of the Code (“Qualifying Income”), as determined by such other Party’s independent certified public accountants (taking into account any known or anticipated income of such other Party which is not Qualifying Income and any appropriate “cushion” as determined by such accountants), plus (B) in the event such other Party receives either (1) a letter from such other Party’s counsel indicating that such other Party has received a ruling from the IRS described in Section 9.4(b)(ii) or (2) an opinion from such other

Party’s outside counsel as described in Section 9.4(b)(ii), an amount equal to the excess of the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, less the amount payable under clause (A) above. To secure Parent or the Company’s obligation to pay these amounts, as applicable, Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall deposit into escrow an amount in cash equal to the Expense Amount and/or the Termination Fee, as applicable, with an escrow agent selected by Parent or the Company, as applicable (that is reasonably satisfactory to the other Party) and on such terms (subject to Section 9.4(b)) as shall be mutually agreed in good faith upon by the Company, Parent and the escrow agent. The payment or deposit into escrow of the Expense Amount or the Termination Fee, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 9.4(a) shall be made, at the time Parent or the Company is obligated to pay the other Party such amount pursuant to Section 9.3, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b) The escrow agreement shall provide that the Expense Amount or the Termination Fee, as applicable, in escrow or any portion thereof shall not be released to Parent or the Company, as applicable (or its designee), unless the escrow agent receives any one or combination of the following: (i) a letter from such Party’s independent certified public accountants indicating the maximum amount that can be paid by the escrow agent to such Party (or its designee) without causing such Party (or its designee) to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code determined as if the payment of such amount did not constitute Qualifying Income or a subsequent letter from such Party’s accountants revising that amount, in which case the escrow agent shall release such amount to such Party (or its designee), or (ii) a letter from such Party’s counsel indicating that such Party received a ruling from the IRS holding that the receipt by such Party (or its designee) of the Expense Amount and/or the Termination Fee, as applicable, would either constitute Qualifying Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code (or alternatively, indicating that such Party’s outside counsel has rendered a legal opinion to the effect that the receipt by such Party (or its designee) of the Expense Amount and/or the Termination Fee, as applicable, should either constitute Qualifying Income or should be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code), in which case the escrow agent shall release the remainder of the Expense Amount and/or the Termination Fee, as applicable, to such Party (or its designee). Each of Parent and the Company agrees to amend this Section 9.4(b) at the request of the other Party in order to (x) maximize the portion of the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, that may be distributed to such other Party (or its designee) hereunder without causing such other Party (or its designee) to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, (y) improve such other Party’s chances of securing a favorable ruling described in this Section 9.4(b) or (z) assist such other Party in obtaining a favorable legal opinion from its outside counsel as described in this Section 9.4(b). The escrow agreement shall also provide that any portion of the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, that remains unpaid as of the end of the taxable year shall be paid as soon as possible during the following taxable year, subject to the foregoing limitations of this Section 9.4; provided, that the obligation of Parent or the Company, as applicable, to pay the unpaid portion of the Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, shall terminate on the December 31 following the date which is five (5) years from the date of this Agreement and any such unpaid portion shall be released by the escrow agent to Parent or the Company, as applicable. Parent (in the case of Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, payable by Parent) or the Company (in the case of Expense Amount and/or Termination Fee, as applicable, payable by the Company) shall not be a party to such escrow agreement and shall not bear any cost of or have liability resulting from the escrow agreement.
