The Estimated Closing Statement will contain a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Holdco that the Estimated Closing Statement was prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied using the same accounting methods,

practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Estimated Closing Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end, and consistent with the calculation set forth on Exhibit E.

(ii) The “Estimated Closing Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Estimated Closing Working Capital minus $4,740,000 (which such amount may be a positive or negative number).

(b) Post-Closing Adjustment.

(i) Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to prepare and deliver to Shareholder Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth its calculation of (i) the Closing Working Capital prepared and calculated in a manner consistent with the application of GAAP and the calculation set forth on Exhibit E, which such estimate will contain a consolidated balance sheet of Holdco as of the Closing Date (giving effect to the Non-Core Asset Transactions, but without giving effect to the other Transactions), (B) Cash of the FNC Entities as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Cash”), (C) Indebtedness of the FNC Entities as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Indebtedness”), and (D) Transaction Expenses as of the Closing (the “Closing Transaction Expenses”). The Closing Statement will contain a certificate of an officer of the Surviving Corporation that the Closing Statement was prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Closing Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end, and consistent with the calculation set forth on Exhibit E.

(ii) The “Post-Closing Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Closing Working Capital minus the Estimated Closing Working Capital, (ii) the Closing Cash minus the Estimated Closing Cash, (iii) the Closing Indebtedness minus the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, and (iv) the Closing Transaction Expenses minus the Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses, which such total may be a positive or negative number.

(i) Examination. After receipt of the Closing Statement, Shareholder Representative shall have 30 days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Statement. During the Review Period, Shareholder Representative and its accountants shall have reasonable access to the books and records of the Surviving Corporation, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Parent and/or its accountants to the extent that they relate to the Closing Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Parent’s possession) relating to the Closing Statement as Shareholder Representative may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (defined below), provided, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

(ii) Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Shareholder Representative may object to the Closing Statement by delivering to Parent a written statement setting forth its objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for its disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Shareholder Representative fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Shareholder Representative. If Shareholder Representative delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Parent and Shareholder Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections, or such other period of time as Parent and Shareholder Representative shall agree to in writing (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Parent and Shareholder Representative, shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Shareholder Representative and Parent fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of Ernst & Young or, if Ernst & Young is unable to serve, Parent and Shareholder Representative shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Statement. Any adjustments with respect to Disputed Amounts must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Shareholder Representative (on behalf of the Shareholders and Optionholders), on the one hand, and by Parent, on the other hand, based upon the percentage

that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Shareholder Representative or Parent, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Shareholder Representative and Parent based on the proportionate deviation of the respective adjustment amounts proposed by Parent and Shareholder Representative, as set forth in the Closing Statement in the case of Parent and the Statement of Objections in the case of Shareholder Representative, from the determination of the final adjustment amounts made by the Independent Accountant. Any such fees and expenses payable by Shareholder Representative shall be paid from the Shareholder Representative Expense Fund to the extent available or, if not available, paid from the Escrow Funds.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after the Independent Accountant’s engagement, and absent manifest error, the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(d) Payment of Post-Closing Adjustment.

(i) If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Shareholder Representative and Parent shall, no later than three Business Days after the final determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment, jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund by wire transfer of immediately available funds (A) to Parent, the Post-Closing Adjustment, (B) to the Exchange Agent, for distribution to the Shareholders and non-employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Shareholders’ and Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of any amounts remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund, and (C) to the Surviving Corporation, for distribution to the employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of any amounts remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(iii) If the Post-Closing Adjustment is zero, Parent and Shareholder Representative will jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund by wire transfer of immediately available funds (a) to the Exchange Agent, for distribution to the Shareholders and non-employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Shareholders’ and Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund, and (B) to the Surviving Corporation, for distribution to the employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(iv) The amount of any Post-Closing Adjustment shall bear interest from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date of payment at a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate as published in such newspaper on the Closing Date. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding. Any distributions to Shareholders and Optionholders shall be less any fees payable by Shareholder Representative under this Section 2.17 and not otherwise paid by Shareholder Representative.

(v) The parties agree that the procedures set forth in this Section 2.17(d) for resolving disputes with respect to the Closing Statement and calculations of Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and/or the Closing Transaction Expenses constitutes the sole and exclusive method for resolving any such disputes, provided that this provision will not prohibit any party from instituting an Action to enforce the ruling of the Independent Accountant. The Parties further agree that the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be the sole source for any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment amount in accordance with this Section 2.17.

(e) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.17 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

There has been no amendment to, announcement by any FNC Entity or any of its ERISA Affiliates relating to, or change in employee participation or coverage under, any Benefit Plan that would materially increase the annual expense of maintaining such plan above the level of the expense incurred for the most recently completed fiscal year with respect to any director, officer, employee, independent contractor or consultant, as applicable. No FNC Entity nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has any commitment or obligation or has made any representations to any director, officer, employee, independent contractor or consultant, whether or not legally binding, to adopt, amend, modify or terminate any Benefit Plan.

(i) Transaction-Based Compensation. There is no existing contract, plan, or arrangement that, individually or collectively, could give rise to the payment as a result of the Transactions of any amount that (i) would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code or (ii) would not be deductible by an FNC Entity or Parent by reason of Section 280G of the Code. The execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions (alone or together with any other event which, standing alone, would not by itself trigger such entitlement or acceleration) will not (x) entitle any current or former employees of any FNC Entity to any payment, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, or increase in benefits under or with respect to any Benefit Plan, (y) otherwise trigger any acceleration of vesting or payment of benefits under or with respect to any Benefit Plan, or (z) trigger any obligation to fund any Benefit Plan.

(j) Section 409A. Each Benefit Plan that constitutes a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code has been operated and maintained in all material respects in operational and documentary compliance with Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance thereunder. No FNC Entity nor an ERISA Affiliate is a party to an existing contract, plan, or arrangement that provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes, including any Taxes imposed under Section 409A or 4999 of the Code.

(k) Non-U.S. Plans. No FNC Entity nor an ERISA Affiliate maintains any Benefit Plans outside the jurisdiction of the United States.

(e) No extensions or waivers of statutes of limitations have been given or requested with respect to any Taxes of the FNC Entities.

(f) The amount of the FNC Entities’ liability for unpaid Taxes for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date does not, in the aggregate, exceed the amount of accruals for Taxes (excluding reserves for deferred Taxes) reflected on the Financial Statements. The amount of the FNC Entities’ liability for unpaid Taxes for all periods following the end of the recent period covered by the Financial Statements shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the amount of accruals for Taxes (excluding reserves for deferred Taxes) as adjusted for the passage of time in accordance with the past custom and practice of the FNC Entities (and which accruals shall not exceed comparable amounts incurred in similar periods in prior years).

(g) Section 3.20(g) of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth:

(o) No FNC Entity will be required to include any item of income in, or exclude any item or deduction from, taxable income for a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Closing Date as a result of:

Copies of the minute books and stock record books have been made available to Parent and Holdco agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to send originals of such books and records to Parent on the Closing Date.

(c) Each FNC Entity maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that: (i) transactions are executed by it in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary (A) to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP or any other criteria applicable to such statements and (B) to maintain accountability for assets, and (iii) the amount recorded for assets on such books and records is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

in, any tangible or intangible property used by the Business or the use of which is material to the Business (taken as a whole).

Section 5.01 Maintenance and Conduct of Business Prior to the Closing.

(a) Except as set forth on Section 5.01 of the Disclosure Schedule in this Agreement or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, from the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, Holdco shall, and shall cause the FNC Entities to, conduct the Business in all material respects in the Ordinary Course and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve intact the current Business and to preserve the rights, franchises, goodwill and relationships of the FNC Entities’ employees, customers, lenders, regulators and others having business relationships with the FNC Entities, except if Parent shall have otherwise consented in writing; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, FNC may (i) take any and all necessary or appropriate actions to effectuate the Non-Core Asset Transactions in accordance with Section 2.19; (ii) conduct the FNC Alpha Conference as currently contemplated and consistent with past practice including associated expenditures, and (iii) pay the Incentive Bonuses. In addition, Holdco agrees it shall, and shall cause the other FNC Entities to:

(xii) promptly notify Parent in writing if any FNC Entity becomes aware of any material deterioration in the relationship with any Material Customer, Material Supplier, FNC’s

users (taken as a whole) or any Key Employee, and, if requested by Parent, shall exert commercially reasonable efforts to promptly restore the relationship;

(xiii) pay all Indebtedness and Taxes when due and pay or perform its other liabilities when due;

(xiv) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that each Contract to which an FNC Entity is a party that is entered into after the date hereof will not require the procurement of any consent, waiver or novation or provide for any material change in the obligations of any party in connection with, or terminate as a result of the consummation of, the Merger, unless such consent, waiver or novation is obtained in connection with the execution of the Contract; and

(xv) continue to collect accounts receivable and pay accounts payable within the Ordinary Course.

(b) From the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, except as otherwise provided for by this Agreement or consented to in writing by Parent, Holdco shall not, and shall cause the other FNC Entities not to, take any action that, if taken after the Interim Balance Sheet Date but before the execution of this Agreement, would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 3.07. Parent acknowledges and agrees that (i) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of any FNC Entity or the Business prior to the Effective Time and (ii) prior to the Effective Time, each of the FNC Entities shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its operations.

(c) The parties agree that, in the event the Closing does not occur prior to March 31, 2016, the parties shall discuss in good faith this Section 5.01 and any adjustments that may reasonably be required to allow the Business to continue to operate in the Ordinary Course.

(f) The parties shall comply with, and shall cause their respective Representatives to comply with, all of their respective obligations under that certain Mutual Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure and Non-Use Agreement effective as of May 28, 2015 by and between Parent and FNC and its Affiliates (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth therein.

(g) Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and without undue disruption to the Business, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement, Holdco will, and will cause the other FNC Entities to, permit Parent and its Representatives to have reasonable access to the books, records, employees, contracts, financial and operating data and information and documents pertaining to an FNC Entity; provided, however, that any such investigation shall be conducted during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to Holdco, under the supervision of the personnel of the FNC Entities. All requests

by Parent for access pursuant to this Section 5.02(b) shall be submitted or directed exclusively to ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ (662-236-8363); ▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ or such other individuals as Holdco may designate in writing from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Holdco shall not be required to disclose any information to Parent if such disclosure would (i) substantially increase the likelihood that a court of competent jurisdiction could infer the existence of an illicit agreement with respect to otherwise legal parallel pricing behavior; (ii) upon the advice of counsel, jeopardize the ability to assert a claim of privilege (including the attorney-client and work product privileges); or (iii) violate any applicable Law, fiduciary duty or Contract entered into prior to the date of this Agreement; provided that Holdco will, and will cause the other FNC Entities to, use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such contractual conflicts. Prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of Holdco, which may be withheld for any reason, Parent shall not contact any suppliers to, or customers of, FNC with respect to the Business or the Transactions, and Parent shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the Real Property.

Section 5.03 Approval of Shareholders.

Holdco will give Parent and its Representatives reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Information Statement (but in no event less than two (2) Business Days) and Holdco will consider in good faith any comments that Parent or its Representatives have with respect to the Information Statement. Holdco shall promptly inform Parent of the date on which the Information Statement was sent. Whenever any event occurs which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Information Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, Holdco or Parent, as the case may be, will promptly inform the other of such occurrence and cooperate in making any appropriate amendment or supplement to, and/or mailing to the Shareholders of, such amendment or supplement.

Section 5.04 Employee Matters.

(a) Parent shall cause the employees set forth on Section 5.04 of the Disclosure Schedule to be terminated as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Terminated Employees”) and shall pay any and all cash compensation (including salary, wages, bonus and incentive opportunities) and benefits (including severance benefits, but excluding any defined benefit pension benefits or retiree welfare benefits) due to such Terminated Employees.

(b) For a period of not less than 12 months following the Effective Time (or until any earlier termination of employment), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate to, provide to each employee of the FNC Entities as of the Effective Time who continues employment with the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates (each a “Continuing Employee”) cash compensation (including salary, wages, bonus and incentive opportunities) and benefits (including severance benefits, but excluding any defined benefit pension benefits or retiree welfare benefits) that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the cash compensation and employee benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Parent.

(c) With respect to any “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates in which any Continuing Employee becomes a participant, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions required to recognize such Continuing Employee’s service with an FNC Entity for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and calculating the amount of vacation, severance and other benefits thereunder (but excluding benefit accruals thereunder and excluding for all purposes, any defined benefit pension benefits or retiree welfare benefits).

(d) With respect to any medical plan maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates in which any Continuing Employee is eligible to participate after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, including the Surviving Corporation, to use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such employees to the extent such conditions and exclusions were satisfied or did not apply to such employees under the welfare plans of the FNC Entities immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) will use its best administrative efforts to provide each Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid and for out-of-pocket maximums incurred prior to the Effective Time in the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs in satisfying any analogous deductible or out-of-pocket requirements to the extent applicable under any such plan.

(e) Nothing in this Section 5.04 shall (i) be treated as an amendment of, or undertaking to amend, any Benefit Plan or (ii) confer any rights or benefits on any Person other than the parties to this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the provisions of this Section 5.04 shall not operate to require Parent or the Surviving Corporation (or their Affiliates) to duplicate any payments or benefits payable pursuant to any compensation or benefits plans, policies, programs, agreements or other arrangements of the FNC Entities; (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or otherwise impair Parent or the Surviving Corporation’s ability to amend or terminate any benefit plan at any time without any obligation or liability, or to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time and for any reason; and (iii) nothing contained in this Section 5.04, whether express or implied, shall be deemed to create an obligation of Parent or any of its Affiliates to pay or otherwise issue equity awards to any employee or officer of an FNC

Entity or otherwise create a right for such individuals to receive equity awards from Parent or any of its Affiliates.

(g) If requested by Parent not later than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Holdco shall, and shall cause the other FNC Entities to, take all such actions as are necessary, including the adoption of board of directors or compensation committee resolutions or consents, to terminate the 401(k) Plan, effective no later than the day immediately prior to the Closing Date, with such termination to be subject to the occurrence of the Closing. Immediately prior to any such termination, Holdco will have fully vested all account balances and made all necessary payments to fund the contributions: (i) necessary or required to maintain the tax-qualified status of the 401(k) Plan; (ii) for elective deferrals made pursuant to the 401(k) Plan for the period prior to termination; and (iii) for any employer contributions (including, without limitation, any matching contributions) for the period prior to termination. Prior to taking such action, Holdco shall provide Parent with copies of the relevant materials in connection with such plan termination, and prior to the Closing Date, Holdco shall provide Parent with evidence that the 401(k) Plan has been terminated. Parent shall cause the 401(k) plans of Parent or its Affiliates to accept as soon as practicable rollover distributions from current and former employees of any FNC Entity with respect to such individuals’ account balances (including loans that are not then in default), if elected by any such individuals.

(ff) Each party hereto, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, will promptly notify the other parties in writing of any material communication it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, and permit the other parties to review in advance, to the extent permitted by Law, any proposed material communication by such party to any Governmental Authority. Each party hereto will agree to participate in any material meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigations, or other inquiries unless the party consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Law, the parties hereto will coordinate and cooperate fully and promptly with one another in

exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods, including those under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws. Subject to applicable Law, the parties hereto will provide one another with copies of all material correspondence, filings, or communications between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions.

(gg) Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required approval from any Governmental Authority and to prevent the initiation of any lawsuit by any Governmental Authority under any Antitrust Laws or entry of any Governmental Order that would otherwise make the Transactions unlawful.

Section 5.06 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(e) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the FNC Entities now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time an officer or director of the FNC Entities (each an “D&O Indemnified Party”), shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time and shall survive the Merger and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and, in the event that any proceeding is pending or asserted or any claim made during such period, until the final disposition of such proceeding or claim.

(f) For six years after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, Parent will, and will cause the Surviving Corporation to, fulfill and honor in all respect the obligations to the D&O Indemnified Parties pursuant to the indemnification agreements with Holdco in effect on the date hereof identified on Section 5.06(b) of the Disclosure Schedules and pursuant to FNC’s Charter Documents in effect on the date hereof (the “FNC Indemnification Provisions”), with respect to claims arising out of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time which are asserted after the Effective Time. Any claims for indemnification made under this Section 5.06(b) on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time shall survive such anniversary until the final resolution thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the FNC Indemnification Provisions, no D&O Indemnified Party shall be entitled to coverage under any Parent director and officer insurance policy or errors and omission policy unless such D&O Indemnified Party is separately eligible for coverage under such policy pursuant to Parent’s policies and procedures and the terms of such insurance policy.

(g) Prior to the Effective Time, Holdco shall purchase a six-year tail insurance coverage for the D&O Indemnified Parties in a form reasonably acceptable to Holdco and Parent, and which such coverage will contain terms and conditions that are at least as favorable as the existing policies in effect as of the Effective Time with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “Insurance Coverage”), provided that the full cost and all premiums associated with such Insurance Coverage are paid in a lump sum by Holdco prior to or at the Closing and are included as a Transaction Expense. Parent shall maintain (or cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain) such Insurance Coverage in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder during the term thereof; provided, however, that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be required to pay any additional amounts following the Closing with respect to such Insurance Coverage, including any additional amounts to maintain such Insurance Coverage.

(h) For six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect provisions in the Surviving Corporation’s governing documents (or in such documents of any successor to the business of the Surviving Corporation) regarding elimination of liability of directors, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses that are no less advantageous to the intended beneficiaries than the corresponding provisions in existence on the date of this Agreement.

(i) The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 5.06 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party to whom this Section 5.06 applies without the consent of such affected D&O Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the D&O Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 5.06 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.06, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 5.06).

(j) In the event Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.06. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any D&O Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the FNC Entities or its officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.06 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

Section 5.07 Closing Conditions. From the date hereof until the Closing, each party hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are necessary to

expeditiously satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Article VII hereof and to consummate the Transactions.

Section 5.08 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or contemplated by this Agreement, prior to the Closing, no party to this Agreement shall make, and each shall cause their respective Affiliates to not make, any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions (including employees, customers and suppliers of the parties) without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) except for any filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other filings required by applicable Law, Governmental Authority, or listing agreement with any national securities exchange; provided, that the party required to make any such filing (a) must afford the other party, for a reasonable period prior to the making of such filing, a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the intended form and substance of such filing and (b) and, if applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of any business trade secrets or personal information contained in the exhibits or schedules to this Agreement.

Section 5.09 Takeover Statute. If any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition” or other form of antitakeover statute or regulation shall become applicable to the Transactions, Holdco and the members of their respective boards of directors shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the Transactions.

Section 5.10 Advise of Changes. Holdco must promptly provide to Parent a written notice advising Parent of (a) any information, with respect to any circumstance or event, that otherwise would render any representations or warranty of Holdco contained in Article III, if made on the Closing Date (or, in the case of representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular date, as of that date), untrue or inaccurate in any respect, such that the condition set forth in Section 7.02(a) would not be satisfied, (b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Holdco pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document such that the condition set forth in Section 7.02(b) would not be satisfied, (c) any Material Adverse Effect, or (d) any change, event, circumstance, condition or effect that would cause any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 not to be satisfied. The delivery of any notice by Holdco pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall not be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedules and shall not limit the right of Parent to claim a failure of a condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.01 or Section 7.02, as applicable, with respect to any matters disclosed pursuant to this Section 5.10.

Section 5.11 No Other Negotiations.

(c) Holdco shall not, and shall not authorize, knowingly encourage or permit any of the other FNC Entities or their Affiliates or Representatives to, directly or indirectly, and shall direct each of its Representatives to not: (i) solicit, initiate, or knowingly encourage, facilitate or induce

the making, submission or announcement of any inquiry, offer or proposal from any Person (other than Parent) for, regarding or concerning any Alternative Transaction (an “Acquisition Proposal”), (ii) furnish any nonpublic information regarding the FNC Entities to any Person (other than Parent and its Representatives) in connection with or in response to any Acquisition Proposal (other than to respond to such Acquisition Proposal by indicating that the FNC Entities are subject to this Section 5.11), (iii) enter into, participate in, maintain or continue any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than Parent and its agents and advisors) with respect to any Alternative Transaction (other than to respond to such Acquisition Proposal by indicating that the FNC Entities are subject to this Section 5.11), (iv) otherwise cooperate with, facilitate or encourage any effort or attempt by any Person (other than Parent and its agents and advisors) to affect any Alternative Transaction, or (v) execute, enter into or become bound by any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, other Contract or understanding between any FNC Entity and any Person (other than Parent) that is related to, provides for or concerns any Alternative Transaction. If any director, officer, or employee of an FNC Entity, whether in his or her capacity as such or in any other capacity, takes any action that an FNC Entity is obligated pursuant to this Section 5.11 to direct such director, officer or employee not to take, then Holdco shall be deemed to have breached this Section 5.11.

(d) Holdco shall notify Parent within 24 hours after receipt by any FNC Entity (or, to FNC’s Knowledge, by any FNC Representatives) of any Acquisition Proposal, or any other notice that any Person is considering making an Acquisition Proposal, or any request for nonpublic information relating to an FNC Entity, the Business or for access to any of the properties, books or records of an FNC Entity by any Person or Persons other than Parent (which notice shall identify the Person or Persons making, or considering making, such Acquisition Proposal) in connection with a potential Alternative Transaction, shall keep Parent fully informed of the status and details of any correspondence or communications related thereto and shall provide to Parent a correct and complete copy of such Acquisition Proposal and any material amendments, correspondence and communications related thereto, if it is in writing, or a written summary of the material terms thereof, if it is not in writing. Holdco shall, and shall cause each other FNC Entity or FNC Representative to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions and negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to an Alternative Transaction.

Section 5.12 Books and Records. Following the Closing, upon reasonable advance notice, Parent will allow Shareholder Representative and its Representatives reasonable access to the books and records of the FNC Entities, and to personnel having knowledge of the whereabouts and/or contents of the books and records of the FNC Entities, for legitimate and specified business reasons, such as the preparation of Tax Returns or the defense of litigation, in each case to the extent relating to the Business prior to the Closing; provided, that any access or furnishing of information must be conducted at the expense of the Shareholder Representative during normal business hours, under the supervision of Parent’s personnel, and in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of Parent, its Subsidiaries, and their business. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) none of Shareholder Representative nor any of its Representatives may have access to personnel records included in the books and records of the FNC

Entities relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories, or other information in personnel records to the extent that providing such access would constitute a breach of Law by any of Parent or its Affiliates, and (b) Parent will not be required to provide to Shareholder Representative or its Representatives reasonable access to any information (y) if doing so would violate any contractual obligation or applicable Law to which any of Parent or its Affiliates is a party or is subject or (z) if Parent believes in good faith based on advice of counsel that doing so would jeopardize the ability to assert a claim of privilege (including the attorney-client and work product privileges); provided, that in the case of each of clauses (y) and (z) immediately above, Parent must use commercially reasonable efforts to provide for the maximum access possible without violation of the applicable contractual obligation or Law. Parent will be entitled to recover from Shareholder Representative its reasonable out-of-pocket costs (including copying costs) incurred in providing such books and records to Shareholder Representative. For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, Parent will, and will cause its Affiliates to, preserve the material books and records of the FNC Entities as in existence at the Closing.

ARTICLE VI

TAX MATTERS

Section 6.01 Tax Covenants.

(h) Without the prior written consent of Parent, prior to the Closing, no FNC Entity, nor any of their Representatives nor any of the Shareholders shall make, change or rescind any Tax election or amend any Tax Return that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Parent or the Surviving Corporation in respect of any Post-Closing Tax Period.

(i) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (other than with respect to the transfer of the Non-Core Assets) shall be borne and paid equally by Holdco and Parent when due.

Section 6.02 Tax Returns.

(a) Holdco shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by Holdco that are due on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions), and shall timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions). Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law).

(b) Following the Closing, the Surviving Corporation shall discuss in good faith with the Shareholder Representative those jurisdictions which in which the Surviving Corporation intends to submit or cause to be submitted, applications or other requests for participation in voluntary disclosure programs relating to sales and use taxes of the FNC Entities (the “Applications”). The

Surviving Corporation shall then file Tax Returns in respect of nonresident withholding Taxes of any FNC Entity in the states and such other jurisdictions that Surviving Corporation determines, in its sole discretion following its good faith consultation with the Shareholder Representative, there to have been delinquencies in paying such Taxes prior to the Closing (the “Local Taxes”, and such Applications and Tax Returns, the “Local Tax Filings”). The Surviving Corporation shall submit any such Local Tax Filings to the Shareholder Representative for review not less than 15 Business Days prior to the filing thereof and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by the Shareholder Representative. The Local Taxes determined to be payable pursuant to this Section 6.02(b) will be paid out of the Tax Indemnity Escrow Fund. On the date on which all of the Local Taxes determined to be payable pursuant to this Section 6.02(b) have been paid to the appropriate taxing authorities, Shareholder Representative and Parent shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse the remainder (if any) of the Tax Indemnity Escrow Fund by wire transfer of immediately available funds to (i) the Exchange Agent, for distribution to the Shareholders and non-employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Shareholders’ and Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of the remaining Tax Indemnity Escrow Fund, and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation, for distribution to the employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of the remaining Tax Indemnity Escrow Amount. The Tax Indemnity Escrow Fund shall remain in place until all Local Taxes have been paid.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.01 Shareholder Representative

(mm) By approving this Agreement and the Transactions or by executing and delivering a Shareholder Letter of Transmittal or an Optionholder Transmittal Letter, each Shareholder or Optionholder shall have irrevocably authorized and appointed Shareholder Representative as such Person’s representative and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Person with respect to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and to take any and all actions and make any decisions required or permitted to be taken by Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, including the exercise of the power to:

(i) give and receive notices and communications;

(ii) authorize delivery to Parent of cash from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund in satisfaction of any amounts owed to Parent pursuant to Section 2.17;

(iii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders or otherwise handle any other matters described in Section 2.17;

(iv) execute and deliver all documents necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of this Agreement and any Ancillary Document (including the Escrow Agreement);

(v) make all elections or decisions contemplated by this Agreement and any Ancillary Document (including the Escrow Agreement);

(vi) engage, employ or appoint any agents or representatives (including attorneys, accountants and consultants) to assist Shareholder Representative in complying with its duties and obligations; and

(vii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing.

Parent shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Shareholder Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement and shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Shareholder or Optionholder by Shareholder Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Shareholder or Optionholder by Shareholder Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Notices or communications to or from Shareholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Shareholders and Optionholders. Any decision or action by Shareholder Representative hereunder, including any agreement between Shareholder Representative and Parent relating to the defense, payment or settlement of any claims for indemnification hereunder, shall constitute a decision or action of all Shareholders and Optionholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Person. No Shareholder or Optionholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. No Person will have any cause of action against Parent, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their Representatives for any action taken by Parent in reliance upon any decision, act, consent, waiver or instruction of Shareholder Representative; and Parent is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by it in accordance with such decision, act, consent, waiver or instruction of Shareholder Representative. The provisions of this Section, including the power of attorney granted hereby, are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall not be terminated by any act of any one or more Shareholders or Optionholders, or by operation of Law, whether by death or other event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Shareholder Representative shall have no authority to bind any Shareholder or Optionholder to any payment or obligation that would create any liability beyond the Escrow Fund and the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount.

(nn) Shareholder Representative may resign at any time, and may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent of a majority in interest of the Shareholders and Optionholders according to each Shareholder’s and Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share (the “Majority Holders”); provided, however, in no event shall Shareholder Representative resign or be removed without the Majority Holders having first appointed a new Shareholder Representative who shall assume such duties immediately upon the resignation or removal of Shareholder Representative.

In the event of the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of Shareholder Representative, a new Shareholder Representative shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders. Notice of such vote or a copy of the written consent appointing such new Shareholder Representative shall be sent to Parent, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent or the date such notice is received by Parent; provided, that until such notice is received, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to rely on the decisions and actions of the prior Shareholder Representative as described in Section 9.01(a).

(oo) The Shareholder Representative shall not be liable to the Shareholders and Optionholders for actions taken pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, except to the extent such actions shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or involved fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel, accountants and other professionals and experts retained by Shareholder Representative shall be conclusive evidence of good faith). The Shareholders and Optionholders shall severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), indemnify and hold harmless Shareholder Representative from and against, compensate it for, reimburse it for and pay any and all losses, liabilities, claims, actions, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, arising out of and in connection with its activities as Shareholder Representative under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (the “Representative Losses”), in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event it is finally adjudicated that a Representative Loss or any portion thereof was primarily caused by the gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith of Shareholder Representative, Shareholder Representative shall reimburse the Shareholders and Optionholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss attributable to such gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith. The Representative Losses shall be satisfied solely from the Shareholder Representative Expense Fund. As soon as practicable after the date on which the final obligation of Shareholder Representative under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement have been discharged or such other date as Shareholder Representative deems appropriate, the Escrow Agent shall (A) pay to the Exchange Agent, for distribution to the Shareholders and non-employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, such Shareholders’ and Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of any amounts remaining in the Shareholder Representative Expense Fund and (B) pay to the Surviving Corporation, for distribution to the employee Optionholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, such Optionholders’ aggregate Pro Rata Share of any amounts remaining in the Shareholder Representative Expense Fund.

(pp) Upon the Closing, Parent will wire to the Escrow Agent the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount, which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing Shareholder Representative for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents. Shareholder Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Shareholder Representative will hold these funds separate from his personal

funds, will not use these funds for personal expenses or any other personal purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to his creditors in the event of bankruptcy. Contemporaneous with or as soon as practicable following the completion of the Shareholder Representative’s responsibilities hereunder, the Shareholder Representative will deliver the balance of the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Shareholders and Optionholders. For tax purposes, the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Shareholders and Optionholders at the time of Closing.

(qq) The provisions of this Section 9.01 are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and will be enforceable notwithstanding any rights or remedies that Parent or any Shareholder or Optionholder may have in connection with the Transactions.

Section 9.02 Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred; provided, that Parent and Holdco will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the filing fees required in connection with the approvals described in Section 5.05.

Section 9.03 Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

(m) The parties agree that this Agreement is the product of negotiation between sophisticated parties and individuals, all of whom were or had the opportunity to be represented by counsel, and each of whom had an opportunity to participate in or did participate in the drafting of each provision hereof. Accordingly, ambiguities in this Agreement, if any, will not be construed strictly or in favor of or against any party but rather will be given a fair and reasonable construction.

(n) Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires, (i) words of either gender or the neuter include the other gender and the neuter, (ii) words using the singular number also include the plural number and words using the plural number also include the singular number, (iii) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision, (iv) the terms “Article” or “Section” or other subdivision refer to the specified Article, Section or other subdivision of the body of this Agreement, (v) the words “include,” “includes,” “including” and other similar words will be deemed to be followed by the phrase “but not limited to,” (vi) when a reference is made in this Agreement to Exhibits, such reference will be to an Exhibit to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated and (vii) for any document or other item to have been “delivered” heretofore on or prior to the date of this Agreement such document or other item must be deposited at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the time that this Agreement was executed by the parties (or if deposited more recently, provided such notice of such deposit and a copy thereof was given to Parent) into the data room heretofore established by Holdco with written notice of such deposit and a copy of such deposit was made to Parent. All accounting terms used herein and not expressly defined herein will have the meanings given to them under GAAP, unless otherwise expressly stated. The terms “third party,” “third-party” or “third parties” refers to Persons other than Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and Holdco and Shareholder Representative, on the other hand. The drafting and negotiation of the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions to the obligations of Holdco, Parent and Merger Sub herein reflect compromises, and certain provisions may overlap with other provisions or may address the same or similar subject matters in different ways or for different purposes. It is the intention of the parties that, to the extent possible, unless provisions are by their terms mutually exclusive and effect cannot be given to both or all such provisions, (1) the representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions in this Agreement will be construed to be cumulative, and (2) each representation, warranty, covenant and closing condition in this

Agreement will be given full separate and independent effect. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by Law or otherwise afforded, will be cumulative and not alternative.

Section 9.05 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 9.06 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.07 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with all exhibits and schedules), the Ancillary Documents, and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the Ancillary Documents, the Exhibits and Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 9.08 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that Parent may assign all or any portion of their rights under this Agreement, or delegate all or any portion of their obligations under this Agreement, to an Affiliate of Parent or in connection with any financing arrangements entered into in connection with Transactions, to any financing source for collateral purposes without Holdco’s consent. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 9.09 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 5.06, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 9.10 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by Parent, Merger Sub and Holdco at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that after the Requisite Shareholder Vote is obtained, there shall be no amendment or waiver that, pursuant to applicable

Law, requires further approval of the Shareholders, without the receipt of such further approvals. Any failure of Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or Holdco, on the other hand, to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by Holdco (with respect to any failure by Parent or Merger Sub) or by Parent (with respect to any failure by Holdco), respectively, only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 9.11 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(h) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Mississippi without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Mississippi or any other jurisdiction).

(i) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS MAY BE INSTITUTED IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI OR THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI LOCATED IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(j) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF AN ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS

AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11(C). ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 9.11(C) WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF SUCH OTHER PARTY’S RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

Section 9.12 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

Section 9.14 Survival. None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Document will survive the Effective Time. This Section 9.14 does not limit any covenant of the parties to this Agreement which, by its terms, contemplates performance after the Effective Time. The Confidentiality Agreement will (a) survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (b) terminate as of the Effective Time.

Section 9.15 Attorney’s Fees. In any Action for the breach of, or to enforce, this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing Party or Parties the costs and expenses the prevailing Party incurs in connection with the Action (including reasonable legal fees and expenses, the costs of investigation, the costs of any accounting or other professional advisers engaged to assist the prevailing Party, and other out-of-pocket costs) in addition to any equitable or other relief to which such Party may be entitled.
