DEFINITIONS
1.1 Certain Definitions. Initial capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement. In addition, for purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings when used herein with initial capital letters:
Beneficially Own or Beneficial Ownership with respect to any securities means having beneficial ownership of such securities as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Without duplicative counting of the same securities by the same holder, securities Beneficially Owned by a person include securities Beneficially Owned by all other persons with whom such person would constitute a group within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to the securities of the same issuer and include all securities Beneficially Owned by a persons affiliates. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Shareholder, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, are not intended to be a group for purposes of Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act and nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted in a manner that requires that they be deemed to be a group thereunder.
Shareholder Securities means the Existing Shares together with any Target Ordinary Shares or other voting securities of Target acquired by the Shareholder or any of the Shareholders affiliates after the date hereof and prior to the termination of this Agreement, whether upon the exercise of options, warrants or rights, the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities, or by means of purchase, dividend, distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, gift, bequest, inheritance or as a successor in interest in any capacity or otherwise.

(b) During the Term, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or as required by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, the Shareholder will not take any action that could revoke the Target Shareholder Approval or restrict or otherwise affect the effectiveness of the Target Shareholder Approval or the Shareholders legal power, authority and right to vote all of the Shareholder Securities as required by this Agreement, including transferring Beneficial Ownership of any of the Shareholder Securities, entering into any voting agreement with any person with respect to any of the Shareholder Securities, granting any person any proxy (revocable or irrevocable) or power of attorney with respect to any of the Shareholder Securities, depositing any of the Shareholder Securities in a voting trust or otherwise entering into any agreement or arrangement with any person limiting or affecting the Shareholders legal power, authority or right to vote the Shareholder Securities in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated the Merger Agreement or taking any of the foregoing actions with respect to any equity interests of the Shareholder.
2.3 Proxy. During the Term, the Shareholder hereby appoints Parent and any designee of Parent, each of them individually, the proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Shareholder, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent with respect to all of the Shareholder Securities in accordance with Section 2.2(a). This proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties and obligations of the Shareholder under this Agreement.

(b) The Shareholder, in such capacity, will use the Shareholders reasonable best efforts to cause Target to comply with Section 6.8 of the Merger Agreement and will not, and will cause the Shareholders agents and representatives, and the Shareholders affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, including any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other retained representative, not to, directly or indirectly solicit, initiate or encourage or facilitate (including by way of furnishing information) or participate in any discussions regarding or enter into any agreement regarding, an Acquisition Proposal relating to Target.

The failure of any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement will not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part of this Agreement or the right of any party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.
5.13 Service of Process. The Shareholder hereby irrevocably designates CT Corporation System (in such capacity, the Process Agent), with an office at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, as the Shareholders designee, appointee and agent to receive, for and on the Shareholders behalf service of process in such jurisdiction in any legal action or proceedings with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and such service will be deemed complete upon delivery thereof to the Process Agent; provided, however, that in the case of any such service upon the Process Agent, the party effecting such service will also deliver a copy thereof to the Shareholder in the manner provided in Section 5.2(a). The Shareholder will take all such action as may be necessary to continue said appointment in full force and effect or to appoint another agent so that the Shareholder will at all times have an agent for service of process for the above purposes in the United States. In the event of the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Process Agent to any other entity by consolidation, merger, sale of assets or otherwise, such other entity will be substituted hereunder for the Process Agent with the same effect as if named herein in place of the Process Agent named above. Nothing herein will affect the right of any party to service process in any manner permitted by applicable law. The Shareholder hereby acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under all applicable laws.
5.14 Legal Fees and Costs. If a legal action is initiated by either party to this Agreement against the other, arising out of or relating to the alleged performance or non-performance of any right or obligation established hereunder, or any dispute concerning the same, any and all fees, costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the successful party or the successful partys legal counsel in investigating, preparing for, prosecuting, defending against, or providing evidence, producing documents or taking any other action in respect of such action will be paid or reimbursed by the unsuccessful party.
