ownership of shares of Company Class A Common Stock) previously representing any such shares of Company Class A Common Stock shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon.  Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, shares of Company Common Stock or other Equity Interests of Company shall have been increased, decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities (other than the issuance of additional shares of capital stock of Company as permitted by this Agreement and the issuance of shares of Company Class A Common Stock in connection with the Exchanges), including by reason of a reorganization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar change in capitalization, or there shall be any other similar event, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement to reflect such event.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, Company or the holders of any shares of capital stock or Equity Interests of Parent, Merger Sub or Company, all shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by Company (including if held in the treasury of Company), Parent or Merger Sub or their direct or indirect Subsidiaries shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and neither the Merger Consideration nor any other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

1.6                               Surviving Corporation Common Stock.  At the Effective Time, each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

1.7                               Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(a)                                 At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Company Class A Common Stock granted by Company, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time (each, a “Company Stock Option”) shall be cancelled and shall cease to be outstanding and shall not be assumed.

(b)                                 In consideration of the cancelation and termination of each Company Stock Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time, Parent shall issue an option to purchase United Rentals Common Shares (each, a “Substitute Stock Option”).  Each Substitute Stock Option generally shall have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Company Stock Option in respect of which such Substitute Stock Option was granted immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any vesting provisions), provided that (i) each Substitute Stock Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole United Rentals Common Shares equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (w) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock that were issuable upon the exercise of the Company Stock Option (or portion thereof) in respect of which such Substitute Stock Option was granted immediately prior to the Effective Time and (x) the Exchange Ratio and (ii) the per share exercise price for the United Rentals Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such Substitute Stock Option shall equal the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of (y) the exercise price per share of Company Class A Common

4

Stock applicable to the Company Stock Option (or portion thereof) in respect of which such Substitute Stock Option was granted immediately prior to the Effective Time and (z) the Exchange Ratio.

(c)                                  In consideration of the cancelation and termination of each Company Stock Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and vested (based solely on the terms of the applicable Company Stock Option and without the exercise of any discretion by Company or any other person) as of the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to pay the holder thereof an amount in cash (less applicable Tax withholdings) within ten (10) days after the Closing Date equal to the product of (i) the Merger Consideration, minus the per share exercise price for the Company Class A Common Stock issuable under such Company Stock Option (or portion thereof), multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option (or portion thereof) as of the Effective Time.

(d)                                 At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award in respect of shares of Company Class A Common Stock granted by Company, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding as of the Effective Time (a “Company Restricted Stock Unit Award” and, together with the Company Stock Options, the “Company Equity Awards”) shall be canceled and shall cease to be outstanding and shall not be assumed.

(e)                                  In consideration of the cancelation and termination of each Company Restricted Stock Unit Award that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time, Parent shall issue an award of time-vesting restricted stock units (each a “Substitute RSU Award”) relating to the number of United Rentals Common Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock with respect to which such Company Restricted Stock Unit Award was unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio.  Each Substitute RSU Award issued pursuant to this Section 1.7(e) generally shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, any time-based vesting schedule) as applied to the related Company Restricted Stock Unit Award in respect of which such Substitute RSU Award was granted, provided that any performance vesting condition shall be waived.

(f)                                   In consideration of the cancelation and termination of each Company Restricted Stock Unit Award that is outstanding and vested (based solely on the terms of the applicable Company Restricted Stock Unit Award and without the exercise of any discretion by Company or any other person) as of the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to pay the holder thereof an amount in cash within ten (10) days after the Closing Date equal to the product of (i) the Merger Consideration, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock with respect to which such Company Restricted Stock Unit Award was so vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(g)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Substitute Stock Options and the Substitute RSU Awards will be revised to reflect that such awards are in respect of United Rentals Common Shares, and may contain such modifications to the Company Equity Awards as Parent deems appropriate to reflect the

5

consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and Company becoming a Subsidiary of Parent.

(h)                                 Prior to the Effective Time, Company shall take all actions necessary to cause the Company Equity Awards to be treated as set forth in this Section 1.7, including, without limitation, the Company Board and its compensation committee, as applicable, adopting any resolutions and taking all other actions (including providing any required notices and obtaining any required consents) that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 1.7.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each holder of vested Company Stock Options shall be entitled to exercise his or her vested Company Stock Options prior to the Effective Time by tendering to Company a check in the full amount of their respective exercise price, in which case such holder shall be treated as a holder of Company Class A Common Stock under Section 1.5.  Parent and the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable to the holders of the Company Equity Awards pursuant to this Agreement such amounts that Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries is required to withhold from such holders in connection with such payments under the Code or any other provision of Tax Laws.  To the extent withheld and deducted, such amounts shall be remitted by Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the applicable Governmental Entity on behalf of the applicable holders of the Company Equity Awards and treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable holders of the Company Equity Awards.

1.8                               Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.  At the Effective Time, (a) the certificate of incorporation of Company shall be amended so as to read in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit B hereto, and, as so amended, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and (b) the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended to read in their entirety as the bylaws of Merger Sub immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement (provided that the name of Merger Sub shall be replaced with the name of the Surviving Corporation).

1.9                               Directors of the Surviving Corporation.  Each of the parties hereto shall take all necessary action to cause the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time to be the directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.  The officers of Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

DELIVERY OF MERGER CONSIDERATION

2.1                               Paying Agent; Surrender and Payment.

(a)                                 Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into a paying agent agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Company with a paying agent designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to Company (the “Paying Agent”).  At or substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited by Merger Sub, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Old Certificates, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, cash in an amount sufficient to allow the Paying Agent to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration that is payable in respect of all of the shares of Company Class A Common Stock represented by the Old Certificates, other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be cancelled and retired pursuant to Sections 1.5(b) and (d) (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund”).  The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Payment Fund as directed by Parent, provided that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the amount of Merger Consideration payable to the holders of Old Certificates.  Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, or as otherwise directed by Parent.  As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event later than ten (10) calendar days thereafter, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each person who was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of one or more Old Certificates representing shares of Company Class A Common Stock at the Effective Time (other than any shares to be cancelled and retired pursuant to Sections 1.5(b) and (d)), a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Old Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery or transfer, as applicable, of the Old Certificates to the Paying Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Old Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration (the “Letter of Transmittal”).  For the avoidance of doubt, no amount payable in respect of the Company Equity Awards shall be included in the Payment Fund.

(b)                                 Each holder of shares of Company Class A Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (other than the Dissenting Shares and any shares cancelled and retired pursuant to Sections 1.5(b) and (d)) shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of the shares of Company Class A Common Stock represented by an Old Certificate as promptly as reasonably practicable following (i) surrender to the Paying Agent of an Old Certificate (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.1(f)), together with a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Paying Agent (or receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of book-entry shares, together with such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Paying Agent).  No interest will be paid or accrued with respect to any property to be delivered upon surrender of Old Certificates.  Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.1(b), each Old Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon surrender, the Merger Consideration.

(c)                                  If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a person other than the person in whose name the surrendered or transferred Old Certificate, as applicable, is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) such Old Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer (in the case of a book-entry share, such Old Certificate shall be properly transferred), and (ii) the person requesting such exchange shall

7

pay to the Paying Agent in advance any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of such payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Old Certificate, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d)                                 After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Company of the shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e)                                  Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of Company for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Surviving Corporation.  Any former stockholders of Company who have not theretofore exchanged their Old Certificates pursuant to this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration, in each case, without any interest thereon.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(f)                                   In the event any Old Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact (in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent) by the person claiming such Old Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Parent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, and following the Paying Agent’s receipt of Letter of Transmittal required by this Section 2.1 with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Old Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate the Merger Consideration.

2.2                               Appraisal Rights.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each issued and outstanding share of Company Common Stock the holder of which has not voted in favor of, or otherwise consented to, the adoption of this Agreement and that is entitled to and has properly perfected his, her or its right to dissent under Section 262 of the DGCL and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right as of the Effective Time with respect to such shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration hereunder, and the holder thereof shall be entitled only to receive payment of the appraised value of Dissenting Shares held by them in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, except as provided in this Section 2.2.  Company shall give Parent prompt written notice upon receipt by Company of any such demands for payment of the fair value of such shares of Company Common Stock, any withdrawals of such notice and any other instruments provided pursuant to applicable Law with respect to appraisal rights (any stockholder duly making such demand being hereinafter called a “Dissenting Stockholder”).  Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make, or commit or agree to make, any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for appraisal or payment, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or the taking of any other action by such Dissenting Stockholder as may be necessary to perfect appraisal rights under the DGCL.  Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in

8

and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands.  Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by the Surviving Corporation.

Except (a) as disclosed in the corresponding sections of the disclosure schedule delivered by Parent and Merger Sub to Company prior to the execution hereof (the “Parent Disclosure Schedule”); provided, that (i) no such item is required to be set forth as an exception to a representation or warranty if its absence would not result in the related representation or warranty being deemed untrue or incorrect, (ii) the mere inclusion of an item in the Parent Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by Parent or Merger Sub that such item has had or would reasonably be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) any disclosures made with respect to a Section of this Article IV shall be deemed to qualify (A) any other Section of this Article IV specifically referenced or cross-referenced and (B) other sections of this Article IV to the extent it is reasonably apparent (notwithstanding the absence of a specific cross reference) from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is relevant to such other sections or (b) as disclosed in any Parent SEC Reports filed prior to the date hereof (but disregarding disclosures contained under the heading “Risk Factors” or disclosures of risks set forth in any “forward-looking statements” disclaimer or any other statements that are similarly non-specific or cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature), Parent and Merger Sub hereby represent and warrant to Company as follows:

(a)                                 With respect to any employee benefit plans of Parent or its Subsidiaries in which any Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate on or after the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to:  (i) with respect to any New Plan that provides medical, dental, vision or prescription drug benefits, use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) waive all pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to each such Continuing Employee and his or her eligible dependents under any New Plans that replaces coverage under a Company Benefit Plan, except to the extent such pre-existing conditions, exclusions or waiting periods would apply under the analogous Company Benefit Plan, and (B) for the plan year in which the Closing occurs, provide each such Continuing Employee and his or her eligible dependents with credit for any co-payments or deductibles paid under an analogous Company Benefit Plan during the portion of the plan year in which the Closing occurs through the Effective Time (to the same extent that such credit was given under such Company Benefit Plan prior to the Effective Time) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under the applicable New Plans for the plan year in which the Closing occurs; and (ii) recognize all service of each such Continuing Employee with Company and its Subsidiaries (and their respective predecessors, if applicable) for all purposes in any New Plan; provided that the foregoing service recognition shall not apply (x) to the extent it would result in duplication of benefits for the same period of services, (y) for purposes of any defined benefit pension plan or benefit plan that provides retiree welfare benefits, or (z) to any benefit plan that is a frozen plan or provides grandfathered benefits.

(b)                                 Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any employee, officer, director or consultant of Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates any right to continue in the employ or service of the Surviving Corporation, Company, or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Surviving Corporation, Company, Parent or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, officer, director or consultant of Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) establish, amend or modify any Company Benefit Plan, New Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (ii) alter or limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries or affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any particular Company Benefit Plan, New Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Effective Time.  Nothing in this Agreement,

40

express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto, including any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

6.5                               Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a)                                 From and after the Effective Time until the sixth (6th) anniversary thereof, Parent agrees to cause Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer or employee of Company and its Subsidiaries or fiduciaries of Company or any of its Subsidiaries under Company Benefit Plans (in each case, when acting in such capacity) (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether arising before or after the Effective Time, arising in whole or in part out of (i) the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of Company or any of its Subsidiaries or is or was a fiduciary of Company or any of its Subsidiaries under Company Benefit Plans, in each case at or prior to the Effective Time or (ii) matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including the Merger and transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, the Information Statement and the documents referenced herein and therein, in each case to the same extent (and solely to such extent) as such persons are indemnified as of the date of this Agreement by Company pursuant to the Charter Documents and any indemnification agreements in existence as of the date hereof that are set forth on Section 6.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule; and Parent shall also cause the Surviving Corporation to advance expenses as incurred by such Company Indemnified Party to the same extent as such persons are entitled to advancement of expenses as of the date of this Agreement by Company pursuant to the Charter Documents and any indemnification agreements in existence as of the date hereof that are set forth on Section 6.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided, however, that the Company Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking consistent with the Company Certificate, the Company Bylaws, the governing or organizational documents of any Subsidiary of Company or any such indemnification agreements, as applicable, and applicable Law to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.  Until the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall not, and shall not permit the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries to, amend, repeal or otherwise modify any provision in the Surviving Corporation’s or its Subsidiaries’ certificate of formation, certificate of incorporation, articles of incorporation, operating agreement, by-laws or equivalent governing documents as in effect as of the date hereof relating to the exculpation or indemnification (including fee advancement) of any Company Indemnified Party in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of any Company Indemnified Party thereunder.

(b)                                 Subject to the following sentence, until the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Company (provided, that the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to the insured in the aggregate) with respect to claims against the present and former officers and

41

directors of Company or any of its Subsidiaries arising from facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that the Parent and Surviving Corporation shall not be obligated to expend, on an annual basis, an amount in excess of 300% of the aggregate annual premium paid as of the date hereof by Company for such insurance (the “Premium Cap”), and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed the Premium Cap, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance which, in the Surviving Corporation’s good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to the Premium Cap.  In lieu of the foregoing, Company, in consultation with Parent may (and at the request of Parent, Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to) obtain at or prior to the Effective Time a six (6) year “tail” policy under Company’s existing directors and officers insurance policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in the preceding sentence if and to the extent that the same may be obtained for an amount that, in the aggregate, does not exceed the Premium Cap and, if such a “tail” policy is purchased, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall have no further obligations under this Section 6.5(b).

(c)                                  The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Company Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives.  If the Surviving Corporation, or any of its successors or assigns, consolidates with or merges into any other entity and is not the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, transfers all or substantially all of its assets or deposits to any other entity or engages in any similar transaction, then in each case, the Surviving Corporation will cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation will expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.5 (unless such assumption occurs by operation of law).

6.6                               Additional Agreements.  In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the parties to the Merger, each party to this Agreement and their respective Subsidiaries shall take, or cause to be taken, all such necessary action as may be reasonably requested by any other party, at the expense of the party who makes any such request.  From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its subsidiaries to honor in accordance with their terms, all Contracts, agreements, arrangements, policies, plans and commitments of Company and its Subsidiaries as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time that are applicable to any current or former employees or directors of Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

6.7                               Advice of Changes.  Each of Parent and Company shall promptly advise the other of (a) any notice or other communication from any person alleging that the consent of such person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (c) subject to, and not in limitation of Section 5.1, any Actions commenced, or to such party’s knowledge, threatened in writing, against Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parent or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, that are related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (d) any fact, change, event or circumstance known to such party, any breach, inaccuracy or misrepresentation of a

42

representation or warranty of such party set forth in this Agreement or any breach or non-performance of a covenant or obligation of such party set forth in this Agreement (i) that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate with all other such matters, a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) which it believes would or would be reasonably expected to cause a condition to Closing set forth in Article VII to not be satisfied.  In no event shall (x) the delivery of any notice by a party pursuant to this Section 6.7 limit or otherwise affect the respective rights, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement, or (y) disclosure by Company or Parent be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Schedules, the Parent Disclosure Schedules or constitute an exception to any representation or warranty.

6.8                               No Solicitation; No Change in Recommendation.

43

(D) fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender offer or exchange offer within ten (10) business days of the commencement of such offer, (E) adopt, approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend to the stockholders of Company an Acquisition Proposal or (F) agree to take any of the foregoing actions (actions described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”), (ii) authorize, cause or permit Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, agreement or agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding, or other similar agreement relating to or providing for any Acquisition Proposal or an acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar definitive agreement providing for or with respect to any Acquisition Proposal (each, a “Company Acquisition Agreement”) or (iii) grant any waiver, amendment or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of Equity Interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any confidentiality agreement or Takeover Statute.

(c)                                  From and after the date hereof, Company shall notify Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) in the event that Company, its Subsidiaries, affiliates or any of their respective Representatives receives (i) an Acquisition Proposal or any amendment thereto or (ii) any request for discussions or negotiations, any request for access to the properties or books and records of Company or any of its Subsidiaries of which Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives is or has become aware, or any request for information relating to Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, by any person that could reasonably be expected to be considering making an Acquisition Proposal.  Such notice to Parent shall indicate the identity of the person or group of persons making such Acquisition Proposal or amendment thereto and provide (x) an unredacted copy of such written Acquisition Proposal or amendment thereto (including, in each case, financing commitments with customary redaction) and any material transaction documents, and (y) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or amendment thereto not made in writing, a written summary of the material terms and conditions of each such Acquisition Proposal or amendment thereto.  Company shall not engage in any developments, discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposals, or changes to the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal or any amendment thereto (including copies of any written proposed agreements).  Company hereby agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Contract that prohibits or restricts it from providing to Parent the information contemplated by this Section 6.8(c) or from complying with the other provisions of this Section 6.8.

(d)                                 Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Company or Company Board or the Special Committee from complying with Rules 14a-9, 14d-9 and 14e-2 under the Exchange Act and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder or making any required disclosure to Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board or the Special Committee, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to stockholders under applicable Law or such disclosure is otherwise required under applicable Law.  For the avoidance of doubt, complying with such obligations or making such disclosure shall not in any way limit or modify the effect that any such action has under this Agreement (including whether such action constitutes a Company Adverse Recommendation Change).

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) is not intended to and does not confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, except (i) as otherwise specifically provided in Section 6.5, which is intended to benefit each Company Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives and (ii) after the Effective Time, for the provisions of Article II, which shall be enforceable by the stockholders of Company and holders of Company Equity Awards to the extent necessary to receive the consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Article II.  The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties.  In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto.  Consequently, persons other than the parties may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement or characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.  Except as provided in Section 6.5 or Section 10.2, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, no consent, approval or agreement of any third party beneficiary will be required to amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement.

66

amendments or waivers hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.  No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation of a contract and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.
