2.6 Conversion of Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of Merger Sub Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub Common Stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall evidence ownership of such shares of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Conversion of Company Stock.

(i) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.6(f) and any Dissenting Shares) pursuant to the terms thereof will be deemed converted to Company Common Stock and such Company Common Stock will be automatically converted (subject to Section 2.6(h)) into the right to receive such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as is equal to the Exchange Ratio, upon surrender of the certificate representing such share of Series A Preferred Stock in the manner provided in Section 2.8 and subject to the deposit of the Escrow Shares pursuant to Section 2.9.

(ii) Each share of Series B Preferred Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.6(f) and any Dissenting Shares) pursuant to the terms thereof will be deemed converted to Company Common Stock and such Company Common Stock will be automatically converted (subject to Section 2.6(h)) into the right to receive such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as is equal to the Exchange Ratio, upon surrender of the certificate representing such share of Series B Preferred Stock in the manner provided in Section 2.8 and subject to the deposit of the Escrow Shares pursuant to Section 2.9.

The shares of Parent Common Stock exchangeable for any shares of Restricted Stock will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as the Restricted Stock, including with regards to vesting.

(iv) No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger, but in lieu thereof, a cash payment shall be made pursuant to Section 2.6(g).

(c) Company Options. Unless the terms of an agreement evidencing a Company Option or the provisions of the Company Option Plan applicable to a Company Option provide otherwise, each Company Option that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then exercisable, will be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to purchase Parent Common Stock (“Assumed Company Options”). Each Company Option so assumed and converted will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions, except that (i) each converted Company Option shall be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share), and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such converted Company Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent); provided, however, that the terms of each of the Company Options will provide (x) for an equitable adjustment in the event that any Escrow Shares are delivered by the Escrow Agent to a Parent Indemnified Party so that the holder of such Company Option will bear a pro rata portion (relative to the Total Outstanding Shares) of the aggregate indemnifiable Damages giving rise to such delivery of Escrow Shares and (y) upon exercise of such Company Option, a portion of the Parent Common Stock issued upon such exercise (equal to the portion of Company Stock then held in the Escrow Account relative to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock previously delivered to the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement) will be retained by Parent in escrow and transferred to either Parent or the holder of such Company Option, as applicable, at the same time and in the same relative proportion as the Escrow Shares are transferred out of the Escrow Account. The conversion of Company Options provided for in this Section 2.6(c) with respect to any Company Options that are “incentive stock options” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) shall be effected in a manner consistent with Section 424(a) of the Code and otherwise in a manner intended to preserve incentive stock option treatment to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(d) Company Warrants.

(i) All Company Warrants that pursuant to their terms do not provide for assumption of such Company Warrants in connection with the Merger shall be cancelled at the Closing. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary to effect the transactions anticipated by this Section 2.6(d) under all Company Warrant agreements, including delivering all notices required thereby. Within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date, the Company shall notify the holders of such Company Warrants, which such notice shall be in compliance with the terms of such Company Warrants and shall specify the vested and unvested portions thereof, that such Company Warrants will be cancelled at the Closing. Materials to be submitted to the holders of Company Warrants in connection with the notice required under this Section 2.6(d) shall be subject to review and reasonable approval by Parent.

(ii) All Company Warrants that pursuant to their terms provide for assumption of such warrant in connection with the Merger (the “Assumed Warrants”)

shall be assumed by Parent and converted into a warrant to purchase Parent Common Stock. Each Assumed Company Warrant will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting), except that (A) each Assumed Company Warrant shall be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share) and (B) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Company Warrant shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent); provided, however, that the terms of each of the Company Warrants will provide (x) for an equitable adjustment in the event that any Escrow Shares are delivered by the Escrow Agent to a Parent Indemnified Party so that the holder of such Company Warrant will bear a pro rata portion (relative to the Total Outstanding Shares) of the aggregate indemnifiable Damages giving rise to such delivery of Escrow Shares and (y) upon exercise of such Company Warrant, a portion of the Company Stock issued upon such exercise (equal to the portion of Escrow Shares then held in the Escrow Account relative to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock previously delivered to the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement) will be retained by Parent in escrow and transferred to either Parent or the holder of such Company Warrant, as applicable, at the same time and in the same relative proportion as the Escrow Shares are transferred out of the Escrow Account.

(e) Company RSUs. Each Company RSU that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be assumed by Parent and converted (subject to Section 2.6(h)) into a Parent RSU for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock as is equal to the Exchange Ratio (“Assumed Company RSUs”), provided, however, that the terms of each Parent RSU will provide (i) for an equitable adjustment in the event that any Escrow Shares are delivered by the Escrow Agent to a Parent Indemnified Party so that the holder of such Parent RSU will bear a pro rata portion (relative to the Total Outstanding Shares) of the aggregate indemnifiable Damages giving rise to such delivery of Escrow Shares and (ii) upon vesting of such Parent RSU, a portion of the Parent Common Stock issued (equal to the portion of Company Stock then held in the Escrow Account relative to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock previously delivered to the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement) will be retained by Parent in escrow and transferred to either Parent or the holder of such Parent RSU, as applicable, at the same time and in the same relative proportion as the Escrow Shares are transferred out of the Escrow Account. Each Parent RSU will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as the Company RSU, including with regards to vesting.

(f) Cancellation of Company-Owned and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of Company Stock held by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(g) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger, but in lieu thereof each former holder of shares of Company Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall, upon surrender of such holder’s Certificate(s), receive from Parent an amount of cash in dollars (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, less the amount of any withholding taxes with respect to the shares represented by such certificate as contemplated by Section 2.11(b), which are required to be withheld with respect thereto, equal to the product of (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the closing sale price of one share of Parent Common Stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market for the trading day that is one trading day prior to the Closing Date.

(h) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Stock occurring on or after the Effective Date and prior to the Effective Time.

2.7 Appraisal

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Stock held by a holder who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s appraisal, dissenters’ or similar rights for such shares under the DGCL or under Chapter 13 of the California Corporations Code (“California Law”), as applicable (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive Parent Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.6 hereof, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are provided by DGCL and California Law.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.7(a), if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s appraisal or dissenters’ rights under the DGCL and California Law, as applicable, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for Company Stock, as applicable, set forth in Section 2.6, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares.

(c) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the DGCL or California Law, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any such demands or offer to settle or settle any such demands. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Company makes any payment or payments in respect of any Dissenting Shares in excess of the consideration that otherwise would have been payable in respect of such shares in accordance with this Agreement (“Dissenting Share Payments”), Parent shall be entitled to recover the amount of such Dissenting Share Payments pursuant to ARTICLE 9 hereof.

2.8 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Procedures.

Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to Parent 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 Parent (including any required Form W-9 or Form W-8), the holders of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (x) certificates representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all Certificates surrendered by such holder) into which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.6(b), less the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be deposited in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.9, (y) a check in the amount of dollars in lieu of fractional shares that such holders have the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.6(g) and (z) any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.8(b), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence only the right to receive upon surrender thereof the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.6(b), an amount in cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares in accordance with Section 2.6(g) and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.8(b). No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock or on any unpaid dividends or distributions payable to holders of Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Parent Common Stock and cash payable in lieu of fractional shares may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such shares of Company Stock is presented to Parent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.

(b) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date hereof with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any unsurrendered Certificates with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby until the holders of record of such Certificates shall surrender such Certificates. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any such Certificates, Parent shall deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, (i) promptly after such surrender, the amount of any cash payable with respect to a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.6(g) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to the whole shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(c) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent shall issue and pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Stock represented by such Certificates were converted pursuant to Section 2.6(b), cash for fractional shares, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.6(g) and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.8(b).

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock. All shares of Parent Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock and dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock issued in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If after the Effective Time Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE 2.

(e) Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8, neither Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of Company Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

2.9 Escrow Account.

(a) Subject to Section 2.9(b), at the Closing, Parent shall deliver, and the Company Stockholders shall be deemed to have received and deposited, a certificate or certificates representing twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the Aggregate Share Consideration issuable in the Merger in respect of all shares of Company Stock pursuant to Section 2.6(b) (the “Escrow Shares”) to a non-interest bearing escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) to be established by Parent with an escrow agent to be designated by Parent and approved by the Company prior to the Closing (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D together with such other modifications as shall be required by the Escrow Agent that are reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Stockholders Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). Each Company Stockholder shall be deemed to have deposited into the Escrow Account such Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Shares, and such shares shall be deducted from the shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise issuable to each such Company Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.6. Such Escrow Shares shall provide security for the satisfaction of claims for indemnification made by the Parent Indemnified Parties pursuant to ARTICLE 9 (subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 9.6). Any fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid by Parent. The Escrow Shares shall be retained in the Escrow Account until released pursuant to this Section 2.9 or Section 9.3. During the period in which the Escrow Shares are retained in the Escrow Account, they will be held for the benefit of the Company Stockholders

(and the Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive cash dividends on, and vote, such shares of Parent Common Stock), unless and until and to the extent it has been determined that any Parent Indemnified Party is entitled to retain any of the Escrow Shares in respect of indemnification claims pursuant to ARTICLE 9. In the event that a Company Stockholder holds Restricted Stock at the Effective Time, then the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger in respect of such Company Stockholder’s shares of Company Stock which are not Restricted Stock shall be withheld and deposited in Escrow Account first and, thereafter, any shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger in respect of such Company Stockholder’s Restricted Stock shall be withheld and deposited in escrow to the extent necessary to satisfy such Company Stockholder’s escrow deposit obligations in this Section 2.9 (it being understood and hereby agreed that any Escrow Shares so deposited in escrow which are restricted shall vest prior to any restricted shares of Parent Common Stock held by such Company Stockholder that are not so deposited in escrow). The release of any Escrow Shares in satisfaction of any indemnification obligations under ARTICLE 9 shall be made, with respect to each Company Stockholder, first with any Escrow Shares then being held in Escrow Account that are not restricted and then, if such Escrow Shares are insufficient to satisfy such indemnification obligation and only to the extent of such insufficiency, with Escrow Shares that are restricted. In the event that a Person holds Assumed Company Options and/or Assumed Company RSUs at the Effective Time, then a portion of the Company Stock issued upon the exercise thereof shall be withheld and deposited in the Escrow Account to the extent necessary to satisfy such holder’s escrow deposit obligations as a Company Stockholder set forth in this Section 2.9.

(b) Within two (2) Business Days following the one-year anniversary of the Closing (the “Initial Escrow Release Date”), Parent and the Stockholders Agent shall each instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to take the following actions:

(i) The Escrow Agent shall be instructed to retain aggregate Escrow Shares with a value (valuing such Escrow Shares at the Parent Closing Price) that is equal to the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Claims at such time, if any (or such lesser amount of Escrow Shares as shall be remaining in the Escrow Account at such time) (collectively, the “Retained Escrow Consideration”).

(ii) With respect to the Escrow Shares, if any, that are in excess of the Retained Escrow Consideration, the Escrow Agent shall be instructed to promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) deliver all of such Escrow Shares to the Company Stockholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

(c) In the event and to the extent that after the Initial Escrow Release Date (i) any Outstanding Claim, a Notice of Claim for which was delivered prior to the Initial Escrow Release Date, is resolved against the relevant Parent Indemnified Party(ies) (such amount, a “Company Favorable Outcome”) and (ii) the value of the Retained Escrow Consideration (valuing such Escrow Shares at the Parent Closing Price) exceeds the aggregate Outstanding Claims at such time, after giving effect to such Company Favorable Outcome (such excess, if any, the “Retained Escrow Excess”), each of Parent and the Stockholders Agent shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to forthwith promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) distribute all of such Retained Escrow Excess to the Company Stockholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

(d) In the event and to the extent that after the Initial Escrow Release Date any Outstanding Claim, a Notice of Claim for which was delivered prior to the Initial Escrow Release Date, is resolved in favor of the relevant Parent Indemnified Party(ies), each of Parent and the Stockholders Agent shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) deliver Retained Escrow Consideration to such Parent Indemnified Party(ies) in the manner set forth in Section 9.4.

2.10 Adjustment Provisions.

(a) No later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the one-year anniversary of the Closing, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders Agent a statement (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Statement”) setting forth the Adjusted Exchange Ratio, calculated as set forth below. Parent shall make available to the Stockholders Agent all relevant books and records relating to the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement upon reasonable prior request. For purposes of this Section 2.10:

“Adjusted Exchange Ratio” means the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Share Consideration, by (y) the Adjusted Total Outstanding Shares.

“Adjusted Total Outstanding Shares” means (x) the Total Outstanding Shares, minus (y) all Forfeited Shares.

“Forfeited Shares” means the sum of (x) all shares of Restricted Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that (i) prior to the one year anniversary of the Closing Date were forfeited to the Company following the termination of the relevant holder’s employment, and (ii) were not Escrow Shares or, if they were Escrow Shares, would have been released from the Escrow Account to the relevant holder on the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, plus (y) all Company Options and Company RSUs that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that were terminated (and not exercised) before the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b) If the Adjusted Exchange Ratio is greater than the original Exchange Ratio, then (i) Parent shall, as promptly as practicable, issue an additional number of shares of Parent Common Stock with respect to each share of Company Stock that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to the holders thereof at such Effective Time equal in amount to (x) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that would have been issuable at the Effective Time with respect to such share of Company Stock if the Exchange Ratio had been equal to the Adjusted Exchange Ratio, minus (y) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issued at the Effective Time (and including any fractional shares in lieu of which cash was issued pursuant to Section 2.6(g) with respect to such share of Company Stock) with respect to such share of Company Stock, (ii) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to each Assumed Company Option and Assumed Company RSU shall be adjusted to equal that number that it would have equaled if the Exchange Ratio had been equal to the Adjusted

Exchange Ratio, and (iii) Parent shall issue to each holder of an Assumed Company Option and an Assumed Company RSU as of the Effective Time who exercised such Assumed Company Option or whose Assumed Company RSU vested, as the case may be, prior to the effective time of such adjustment a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal in amount to (A) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such prior exercise of such Assumed Company Option or the vesting of such Assumed Company RSU, as the case may be, had the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon such exercise or vesting event been calculated after giving effect to the adjustment provided in clause (ii) of this Section 2.10(b), minus (B) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock previously issued upon such exercise or vesting event. Any shares of Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to this clause (iii) shall be subject to the same forfeiture, transfer and repurchase provisions that are applicable to the shares of Parent Common Stock issued at the relevant time of exercise. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 and in lieu thereof, a cash payment shall be made using the methodology set forth in Section 2.6(g).

2.11 Tax Consequences and Withholding.

(a) Consequences. It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and that the exchange of Company Stock for the Aggregate Share Consideration pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be treated as an exchange described in Section 354(a) of the Code. The parties hereto shall comply with all tax filing requirements under Sections 368 and 354 of the Code and shall not make any tax filing that is inconsistent with the foregoing intent. The parties hereto adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) and Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3(a).

To the extent such amounts are so deducted and withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

2.12 Further Assurances. If, at any time before or after the Effective Time, the Company or Parent reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement at or after the Effective Time, then the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective officers and directors shall execute and deliver all such proper deeds, assignments, instruments and assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

3.1 Organization.

(a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under Delaware law and has all the requisite corporate power and authority, and is in possession of all franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, consents, waivers, qualifications, certificates, Orders and approvals (collectively, “Approvals”) necessary to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted other than those Approvals the failure of which to have would not result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except as would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Section 3.1(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists every state or foreign jurisdiction in which the Company has Employees or facilities or otherwise has conducted its business since inception. Section 3.1(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists the directors and officers of the Company as of the Effective Date.

(b) The Company has no Subsidiaries.

(c) The Company does not own any equity or similar interest in, or any interest convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, directly or indirectly, any equity or similar interest in, any Person.

3.2 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Company has heretofore furnished to Parent a true and complete copy of its Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as modified, supplemented, amended or restated to the Effective Date. Such Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws are in full force and effect, and no other organizational documents are applicable to or binding upon the Company. None of such Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws restricts or limits the ability of the holders of Company Stock to act by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

3.3 Capitalization.

outstanding Company Options (the “Outstanding Company Options”), (ii) 5,100,000 shares of Company Series A Preferred Stock, of which 5,085,714 shares are issued and outstanding; and (iii) 2,060,000 shares of Company Series B Preferred Stock, of which 2,000,000 shares are issued and outstanding. Each share of Company Series A Preferred Stock is convertible on a 1:1 basis into Company Common Stock and each share of Company Series B Preferred Stock is convertible on a 1:1 basis into Company Common Stock.

Each Company Option was granted with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the per share fair market value (as such term is used in Code Section 409A and the Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) of the Common Stock underlying such Company Option on the grant date thereof and was otherwise issued in compliance with all applicable Laws. There are no Company Options for any class of Company Stock other than Common Stock. Except as set forth above, no shares of voting or non-voting capital stock, other Equity Interests, or other voting securities of the Company are issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding. No Company Option shall entitle the holder thereof to receive anything after the Merger in respect of such Company Option except as provided in this Agreement. All outstanding shares of Company Stock are, and all shares which may be issued upon the exercise of Company Options will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal or offer, preemptive right, subscription right or similar right.

There are no declared or accrued but unpaid dividends with respect to any shares of Company Stock. There have been no anti-dilution or similar adjustments made to the conversion terms or adjustments made to the exercise price of any Company Preferred Stock, or any warrants, notes, options or other Commitments since the issuance thereof. The certificate delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 6.18 shall be true and correct.

There are no outstanding obligations of the Company (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock (or options or warrants to acquire any such shares) or other Equity Interests of the Company. There are no stock-appreciation rights, stock-based performance units, “phantom” stock rights or other Contracts or obligations of any character (contingent or otherwise) pursuant to which any Person is or may be entitled to receive any payment or other value based on the revenues, earnings or financial performance, stock price performance or other attribute of the Company or any of its businesses, assets, rights or properties or calculated in accordance therewith (other than ordinary course payments or commissions to sales representatives of the Company based upon revenues generated by them without augmentation as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby) (collectively, “Stock-Based Rights”) or to cause the Company to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, or which otherwise relate to the registration of any securities of the Company. There are no voting trusts, proxies or other Contracts of any character to which the Company or, to the Knowledge (as defined herein) of the Company, any of the Company Stockholders is a party or by which any of them is bound with respect to the issuance, holding, acquisition, voting or disposition of any shares of capital stock or similar interests of the Company.

bylaws (the “Requisite Stockholder Vote”). Upon receipt of the Stockholder Consents, no further vote of the holders of any class or series of the capital stock of the Company is necessary to adopt this Agreement and approve the Merger. Each of this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which the Company is a party has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.11 shall in no way affect the rights of the Parent Indemnified Parties or the obligations of the Company Stockholders arising under ARTICLE 9, and any Liabilities subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.11(a) or to be covered by D&O Insurance pursuant to Section 6.11(b) shall in no event include any Damages for which any Company Stockholder is liable (either directly or through an obligation to indemnify another Person) pursuant to the terms hereof.

6.12 Tax-Free Reorganization Treatment. Parent and the Company intend that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that the exchange of Company Stock for the Aggregate Share Consideration pursuant to Section 6.12 shall be treated as an exchange described in Section 354(a) of the Code, and each shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to so qualify and be treated accordingly. Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor the Company shall take any action, cause or permit any action to be taken, or fail to take any action, that would reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

The

Company shall provide any disclosure or other information regarding the Company reasonably required by Parent for inclusion in any disclosure materials delivered by Parent to the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Section 6.14(a) and the Company agrees that all information provided by it for such purpose will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

If at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 (or the information statement included therein) so that the Form S-4 (and the information statement included therein) would not include any misstatement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and, promptly thereafter, Parent shall file with the SEC an appropriate amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 (or the information statement included therein) describing such information. Parent shall promptly notify the Company of (i) the time when the Form S-4 has been declared effective, (ii) the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Form S-4 or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Form S-4 or the Merger, and (iii) of the issuance of any stop order of the SEC in respect of the Form S-4.

At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a certificate, executed for and on behalf of the Company by each of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, setting forth as of the Closing Date (a) each share or other unit of Company Stock, Company Options, Company Warrants, Restricted Stock, Company RSUs and any other Commitment to purchase or otherwise acquire shares of Company Stock outstanding (including the holders thereof and, to the extent applicable, the exercise prices therefor) and (b) a calculation in reasonable detail of the Total Outstanding Shares.

6.19 Investor Rights Agreement. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the applicable Company Stockholders to, and the Stockholder Parties shall, cause the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2006, among the Company and the other persons listed on the signature pages thereof, to be amended so as to terminate upon consummation of the Merger.

6.20 Legend on Share Certificates. The certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable in the Merger hereunder shall include an endorsement typed conspicuously thereon of the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE RESOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS REGISTERED OR EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.”

In the event that any shares of Parent Common Stock issuable hereunder shall cease to be Restricted Shares, the Company shall, upon the written request of the holder thereof, issue to such holder a new certificate representing such shares of Parent Common Stock without the first paragraph of the legend required by this Section 6.20. For purposes of the foregoing, “Restricted Shares” means all shares of Parent Common Stock issuable hereunder other than shares of Parent Common Stock (i) the offer and sale of which have been registered under a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and sold thereunder, (ii) with respect to which a sale or other disposition has been made in reliance on and in accordance with Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act, or (iii) with respect to which the holder thereof shall have delivered to Parent either (A) an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, delivered by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent, or (B) a “no action” letter from the SEC, in either case to the effect that subsequent transfers of such shares of Parent Common Stock may be effected without registration under the Securities Act.

The expiration of representations and warranties provided herein shall not affect the right of any Indemnified Party in respect of any claim made by such Indemnified Party in a written notice that is delivered pursuant to and in compliance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 9 prior to the expiration date(s) specified above.

9.2 Indemnification by the Company Stockholders. Subject to the terms of this ARTICLE 9, each of the Company Stockholders, severally (based on the respective Pro Rata Shares of such Company Stockholders) and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent and its Affiliates (including the Company after the Effective Time) and their respective officers, directors, managers, members, partners, employees, agents and representatives, successors and assigns (the “Parent Indemnified Parties”) against, and reimburse any Parent Indemnified Party for, all Damages that such Parent Indemnified Party suffers or incurs as a result of:

(a) the failure of any representation or warranty of the Company contained in ARTICLE 3 of this Agreement to be true and correct as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date as if made on the Closing Date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a specific date, in which case the failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of such date, in each case with Damages being determined without regard to any materiality (including the word “material”), Company Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifier contained therein but with full effect being given to all such qualifications for purposes of determining whether any representation or warranty that is so qualified is true and correct;

(b) the breach by the Company of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement to be performed prior to the Closing in each case with Damages being determined without regard to any materiality (including the word “material”), Company Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifier contained therein but with full effect being given to all such qualifications for purposes of determining the existence of a breach of any covenant or agreement that is so qualified;

(f) solely in the case of Company Stockholders who are Stockholder Parties, the failure of any representation of such Stockholder Party to be true and correct as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date as if made on the Closing Date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a specific date, in which case the failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of such date, in each case with Damages being determined without regard to any materiality (including the word “material”), Company Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifier contained therein but with full effect being given to all such qualifications for purposes of determining whether any representation or warranty that is so qualified is true and correct; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to a breach by a Stockholder Party giving rise to an indemnification obligation under this Section 9.2(f), all Damages determined to be subject to such indemnification obligation shall be payable in full solely by such Stockholder Party.

9.3 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Effective Time, except in the case of fraud, the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 9.2 shall be the Parent Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for all Damages arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and Parent hereby waives, for and on behalf of all of the Parent Indemnified Parties, any and all other remedies, whether at law or in equity, that are otherwise available to the Parent Indemnified Parties, or any of them, arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall eliminate the ability of any party hereto to apply for equitable remedies to enforce the other party’s or parties’ obligations under this Agreement.

9.4 Indemnification Claims.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, no Parent Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any Damages pursuant to the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 9.2 hereof unless and until the Company Stockholders Agent receives a written notice (a “Notice of Claim”) of a claim for indemnification under Section 9.2 (an “Indemnification Claim”) (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) stating, to the then current Knowledge of Parent, (i) that a Parent Indemnified Party has actually suffered or incurred Damages for which such Parent Indemnified Party believes in good faith that it may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2, or believes in good faith that a Parent Indemnified Party could suffer or incur Damages for which such Parent Indemnified Party believes in good faith that it may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2, (ii) to the extent then known by the Parent Indemnified Party, a brief description, in reasonable detail, of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the Indemnification Claim (and the Damages, to the extent known, forming the basis of such Indemnification Claim), including to the extent then known by the Parent Indemnified Party the

identity and address of any third-party claimant and copies of any formal demand or complaint, and (iii) the representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement that may form the basis of such Indemnification Claim under Section 9.2. To be valid pursuant to this Section 9.4, a Notice of Claim relating to an Indemnification Claim under Section 9.2(a) must be received by the Stockholders Agent prior to the expiration of the representation or warranty forming the basis of such claim, and any delivery or attempted delivery of a Notice of Claim after such expiration date shall be void and of no force or effect. In the event that a Parent Indemnified Party shall deliver a Notice of Claim with respect to any claim that is not a Copyright Action but would constitute a Copyright Action if filed or instituted in any Court, such Notice of Claim shall not be effective unless and until a Copyright Action is filed or instituted in Court on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b) After receipt of a Notice of Claim, the Stockholders Agent shall have thirty (30) Business Days following such party’s receipt of the Notice of Claim in which to deliver notice of objection to such claim to the Parent Indemnified Party and the Escrow Agent. If no objection notice is given within such 30 Business Day period, then the Indemnification Claim set forth in the related Notice of Claim shall be deemed to be valid and indemnifiable pursuant hereto, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver to such Parent Indemnified Parties (as allocated from the Escrow Shares then remaining in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 9.4(d)) Escrow Shares equal in value (valued at the Company Closing Price) to the amount of the Indemnification Claim set forth in the Resolved Claim Notice. In the event that the Stockholders Agent shall deliver written objection to any Indemnification Claim set forth in a Notice of Claim within the foregoing 30 Business Day period, then no Parent Indemnified Party shall be entitled to any indemnification payment and release of Escrow Shares in respect thereof unless and until such Indemnification Claim is finally resolved by mutual agreement, Court Order or settlement. In the event that a Parent Indemnified Party and the Stockholder Agent shall mutually agree to resolve a disputed Indemnification Claim in favor of the Parent Indemnified Parties (or any of them), then the applicable Parent Indemnified Parties and the Stockholders Agent shall provide joint written notice (the “Resolved Claim Notice”) of such offset to the Escrow Agent, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver to such Parent Indemnified Parties (as allocated from the Escrow Shares then remaining in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 9.4(d)) Escrow Shares equal in value (valued at the Company Closing Price) to the amount of the Indemnification Claim set forth in the Resolved Claim Notice. In the event that a disputed Indemnification Claim shall be resolved by Court Order in favor of the Parent Indemnified Parties (or any of them), then the Parent Indemnified Party shall be permitted to unilaterally deliver a Resolved Claim Notice (a “Unilateral Resolved Claim Notice”) to the Escrow Agent (with a copy of the Court Order related thereto), whereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver to such Parent Indemnified Parties (as allocated from the Escrow Shares then remaining in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 9.4(d)) Escrow Shares equal in value (valued at the Company Closing Price) to the amount of the Indemnification Claim set forth in the Unilateral Resolved Claim Notice.

(c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.4, the parties hereto agree that Parent shall have the right to deliver immediately prior to the one-year anniversary of the Closing an Indemnification Claim with respect to all amounts that will thereafter in the future become due and payable under the 2006 Retention Cash Bonus Plan pursuant to the terms of such 2006 Retention Cash Bonus Plan and the awards made thereunder, and shall be entitled to payment of such Indemnification Claim in full at such time.

(d) In the event Parent and the Stockholders Agent shall have instructed the Escrow Agent to deliver any Escrow Shares to a Parent Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.4(b), such Escrow Shares shall be allocated by the Escrow Agent among the Escrow Shares of the Company Stockholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

9.5 Third Party Claim Procedures. In the event any Parent Indemnified Party becomes aware of a made by any third party claim against the Parent Indemnified Party (a “Third-Party Claim”), which such Parent Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 9, such Parent Indemnified Party shall notify the Stockholders Agent or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a party or parties hereto liable for such indemnification and not from the Escrow Shares (the “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnifying Party, of such claim, and the Stockholders Agent (on behalf of the Company Stockholders) or the Indemnifying Party, as applicable, shall be entitled, at their expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim. The Parent Indemnified Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of the Stockholders Agent or the Indemnifying Party, as applicable, no settlement of any such Third Party Claim with third party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Damages relating to such matter.

9.6 Limitations on Indemnification. Any claims of any Parent Indemnified Party made under this ARTICLE 9 will be limited as follows:

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company Stockholders shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Parent Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Parent Indemnified Party for, any Damages pursuant to Section 9.2(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Damages suffered or incurred by the Parent Indemnified Parties subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a) exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Threshold”), after which the Company Stockholders shall be obligated for all of such Damages of the Parent Indemnified Parties, including the amount of Damages below the Threshold; provided, however, that the Threshold limitation shall not apply to the Fundamental Representations or to any indemnification claim arising out of any fraudulent, intentional or willful breach of any representation of the Company in this Agreement.

(b) The Escrow Shares shall be held as the Parent Indemnified Parties’ sole security for the indemnification obligations of the Company Stockholders under Section 9.2. Except in the case of any indemnification claim under Section 9.2(a) relating to the Fundamental Representations or any claim under Section 9.2 arising out of any fraudulent, intentional or willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Agreement (which are addressed in Section 9.6(c)), notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, recovery of Escrow Shares from the Escrow Account shall be the Parent Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive recourse against the Company Stockholders in respect of the Company Stockholders’ indemnification obligations under Section 9.2; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, recovery of up to five percent (5%) of the total

number of Escrow Shares initially deposited in the Escrow Account pursuant to ARTICLE 2 shall be the Parent Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive recourse against the Company Stockholders in respect of the Company Stockholders’ indemnification obligations under Section 9.2(c).

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Company Stockholder shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Parent Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Parent Indemnified Party for, any Damages in excess of such Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Merger Consideration Value (as defined below) for any and all indemnification claims under Section 9.2(a) relating to the Fundamental Representations or any claim under Section 9.2 arising out of any fraudulent, intentional or willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Agreement, and in no event shall any Company Stockholder be liable to the Parent Indemnified Parties for any amounts in excess of each such Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Merger Consideration Value. In the event that the Parent Indemnified Parties (or any of them) shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) in respect of any of the Fundamental Representations or for any fraudulent, intentional or willful breach of any representation of the Company in this Agreement, none of the Company Stockholders shall be required to directly indemnify any Parent Indemnified Parties, other than pursuant to the release of Escrow Shares allocated to such Company Stockholder from the Escrow Account, unless and until all of the Escrow Shares held in escrow on behalf of such Company Stockholder have been either released from the Escrow Account or allocated to an Outstanding Claim. For purposes of the foregoing, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration Value” means $1,650,000,000.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company Stockholders shall only be liable under the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 9.2 for 50% of any Damages that arise from the matters set forth in Section 9.6(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification obligation set forth in Section 9.2(c) is the Company Stockholders’ sole and exclusive obligation, duty and potential source of liability, and Parent Indemnified Parties sole and exclusive right and remedy, with respect to any Copyright Action (or any claim that if filed or otherwise instituted in a Court would constitute a Copyright Action) regardless of whether such claim or matter would constitute a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Company or any Company Stockholders under this Agreement, including Section 3.12(b).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the “Damages” for which the Parent Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2 hereof shall expressly exclude, and the Parent Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover, any punitive damages, except to the extent such punitive damages are payable by any Parent Indemnified Party as a result of a third-party claim.

9.7 Adjustment to Purchase Price. To the extent permitted by Law, any indemnification payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE 9 will be treated as an adjustment to the Merger consideration.

9.8 Several Obligations. For purposes of this Agreement, the liability of the Company Stockholders with respect to Losses shall be deemed to be allocated and borne pro rata based on their respective Pro Rata Shares.

9.9 Stockholders Agent.

(a) At least 5 Business Days prior to the Closing Date the Company shall appointed an agent reasonably acceptable to Parent (the “Stockholders Agent”) to act as agent for and on behalf of the Company Stockholders with the exclusive authority to give and receive notices and communications pursuant to the terms of this ARTICLE 9 solely with respect to indemnification claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties to be satisfied solely by the delivery of Escrow Shares to the applicable Parent Indemnified Parties, to authorize delivery to the Parent Indemnified Parties of the Escrow Shares in satisfaction of indemnification claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties as contemplated by Section 9.3, to object to such deliveries, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and take legal actions and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to indemnification claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties that will or may be paid or otherwise satisfied solely by the delivery of Escrow Shares, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder Agent shall have no power or authority to take any of the foregoing actions for or on behalf of any Company Stockholder in respect of any indemnification claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties that will or may be paid or otherwise satisfied other than by the delivery of Escrow Shares to the applicable Parent Indemnified Parties. No bond shall be required of the Stockholders Agent, and the Stockholder Agent shall receive no compensation for services rendered. Notices or communications to or from the Stockholders Agent shall constitute notice to or from each of the Company Stockholders solely with respect to indemnification claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties to be satisfied solely by the delivery of Escrow Shares to the applicable Parent Indemnified Parties.

(b) The Stockholders Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder in his capacity as Stockholders Agent, except to the extent it has acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence that he did not act with gross negligence or willful misconduct. The other Company Stockholders shall severally and not jointly indemnify the Stockholders Agent and hold it harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Stockholders Agent and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the duties hereunder, including any out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Stockholders Agent (“Outstanding Stockholders Agent Expenses”). If not paid directly to the Stockholders Agent by the Company Stockholders, such losses, liabilities or expenses may be recovered by the Stockholders Agent from the Escrow Shares (if any) that otherwise would be distributed to the Company Stockholders following the Initial Escrow Release Date after giving effect to, and satisfaction of, all claims for indemnification made by the Parent Indemnified Parties pursuant to ARTICLE 9, and such recovery (if any) of Outstanding Stockholders Agent Expenses from such Escrow Shares will be made from the Company Stockholders according to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

(c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders Agent shall constitute a decision of all the Company Stockholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of the Company Stockholders, and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each of the Company Stockholders. The Escrow Agent and Parent are hereby relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders Agent.

10.5 Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any

provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Each party hereto also agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom). Each party hereto agrees that a final and non-appealable judgment in any Action may be enforced by Action on the judgment or in any other manner provided at Law or in equity. Each party hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other party hereto with respect thereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process on it by notice as provided in Section 10.3 shall be deemed effective service of process.

10.6 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.

(a) Any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination thereof, shall (except as specifically set forth in this Agreement) be finally settled by binding arbitration in the County of Santa Clara, California in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a dispute.

(b) Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator chosen by mutual agreement of Parent and the Stockholders Agent. Alternatively, at the request of either party before the commencement of arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted by three independent arbitrators, none of whom shall have any competitive interests with the Parent or Stockholders Agent. Parent and Stockholders Agent shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator.

(c) In any arbitration under this Section 10.6, each party shall be limited to calling a total of three witnesses both for purposes of deposition and the arbitration hearing. Subject to the foregoing limitation on the number of witnesses, the arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions for discovery abuses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification.

(d) The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or

order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party, including any distributions out of the Escrow Fund, as applicable.

(e) The parties to the arbitration may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary, without breach of this arbitration provision and without abridgement of the powers of the arbitrator(s).

(f) The parties agree that each party shall pay its own costs and expenses (including counsel fees) of any such arbitration, and each party waives its right to seek an order compelling the other party to pay its portion of its costs and expenses (including counsel fees) for any arbitration.

10.7 Release. As of the Effective Time, each Stockholder Party, for itself and on behalf of its heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Relevant Persons”), does hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waive, release and forever discharge the Company and each current (as of the Effective Time) and former director and officer of the Company from any and all Claims that such Relevant Persons may have against the Company, a director or officer to the extent such Claims arise out of or relate to such Relevant Person’s ownership of Company Stock or other Equity Interests in the Company or their status as a securityholder of the Company except for any breach of the Agreement or any Transaction Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, this is not intended to, and shall not constitute, a release of any Claims arising out of a Relevant Person’s status as a director or officer of the Company). With respect to such Claims, each Seller Party hereby expressly waives any and all rights conferred upon him or her by any statute or rule of law which provides that a release does not extend to claims which the claimant does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the released party, including, without limitation, the following provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

10.9 Governing Law. This Agreement and the performance of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and the obligations of the parties hereunder will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

10.10 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification, replacement, termination or cancellation of any provision of this Agreement will be valid, unless the same will be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

10.11 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

10.12 Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign Law will be deemed also to refer to such Law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that such party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

10.13 Incorporation of Exhibits, Schedules and Disclosure Letters. The Exhibits, Schedules, Company Disclosure Schedule, Parent Disclosure Letter and other attachments identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

10.14 Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. Except as expressly provided herein, the rights, obligations and remedies created by this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights, obligations, or remedies otherwise available at Law or in equity. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing herein will be considered an election of remedies.

10.15 Effectiveness of Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates certain provisions of the Original Agreement and restates the terms of the Original Agreement in their entirety. All amendments to the Original Agreement effected by this Agreement, and all other covenants, agreements, terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall have effect as of the Effective Date unless expressly stated otherwise. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date that copies hereof have been executed and delivered upon execution by each of the parties hereto.
