AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of February 24, 2012 (this “Agreement”), among Affinity Insurance Services, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Parent”), Atlas Acquisition Corp., an Oklahoma corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Sub”), Access Plans, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (the “Company”) (Sub and the Company being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Constituent Corporations”), and Mark R. Kidd, an individual and a director of the Company, as representative of the Company Shareholders (in such capacity, “Shareholders’ Representative”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) and of Sub have approved and declared advisable the merger of Sub with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the Surviving Corporation (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, whereby each issued and outstanding share of common stock, $0.0001 par value, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”), other than the Dissenting Shares and Company Common Stock owned directly or indirectly by Parent or the Company, will be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (as hereinafter defined); and

WHEREAS, the Company Board and the Board of Directors of Sub have determined that the Merger is in furtherance of and consistent with their respective long-term business strategies and is in the best interest of their respective shareholders.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the Oklahoma General Corporation Act (the “OGCA”), Sub shall be merged with and into the Company at the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined). Following the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of Sub in accordance with the OGCA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at the election of Parent, any direct, wholly-owned Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) of Parent may be substituted for Sub as a constituent corporation in the Merger; provided that such substituted corporation is an Oklahoma corporation which is formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has engaged in no other business activities. In such event, the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Company, in order to reflect such substitution.

Section 1.2 Effective Time. The Merger shall become effective when a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the OGCA, is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Oklahoma; provided, however, that, upon mutual consent of the Constituent Corporations, the Certificate of Merger may provide for a later date of effectiveness of the Merger not more than 30 calendar days after the date the Certificate of Merger is filed. When used in this Agreement, the term “Effective Time” shall mean the date and time at which the Certificate of Merger is accepted for recording or such later time established by the Certificate of Merger. The filing of the Certificate of Merger shall be made on the date of the Closing (as hereinafter defined).

Section 1.3 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in Section 1088 of the OGCA.

Section 1.4 Charter and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Company Charter”), as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended so that Article Fourteenth is deleted and so that Article Fourth reads in its entirety as follows: “The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 1,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value.” As so amended, the Company Charter shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law. At the Effective Time, the Bylaws of Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) The directors and officers of Sub at the Effective Time shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

Section 1.5 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Sub, the Company or the holders of any securities of the Constituent Corporations:

(a) Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, $0.01 par value, of Sub shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) All shares of Company Common Stock that are held in the treasury of the Company or by any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be canceled, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares (as hereinafter defined) and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)) shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration, and without interest.

Each such share, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of each such share upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 1.7. The right of any Person to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be subject to and reduced by the amount of any withholding pursuant to Section 1.8.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which are held of record by Company Shareholders who shall not have voted such shares in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal of such shares in accordance with Section 1091 of the OGCA (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, but the holders thereof instead shall be entitled to, and the Dissenting Shares shall only represent the right to receive, payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1091 of the OGCA; provided, however, that (i) if such a holder fails to demand properly in writing from the Surviving Corporation the appraisal of his shares in accordance with Section 1091 of the OGCA or, after making such demand, subsequently delivers an effective written withdrawal of such demand, or fails to establish his entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in Section 1091 of the OGCA, if so required, or (ii) if a court shall determine that such holder is not entitled to receive payment for his shares or such holder shall otherwise lose his appraisal rights, then, in any such case, each share of Company Common Stock held of record by such holder or holders shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, upon surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent and Sub prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of such shares, and Parent and Sub shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands except as required by applicable Law. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for fair value for Dissenting Shares or offer to settle, settle or negotiate in respect of any such demands. Any cash paid in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be paid by the Company solely with its own funds, and the Company shall not be reimbursed therefor by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, either directly or indirectly.

Section 1.6 Calculation of Aggregate and Per Share Merger Consideration.

(a) Five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent (i) a consolidated balance sheet with respect to the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”), (ii) a certificate (the “Working Capital Certificate”), duly executed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the Working Capital of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date and (iii) a statement (the “Estimated Merger Consideration Statement”), duly executed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the Company’s estimate of (I) the Net Cash Amount as of the Effective Time, (II) the Fully Diluted Shares Number and (III) based thereon, the Aggregate Merger Consideration (the “Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration”) and the Per Share Merger Consideration (the “Estimated Per Share Merger

Consideration”). The Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Working Capital Certificate and the Estimated Merger Consideration Statement shall be prepared in good faith and in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, be based on the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and be subject to the written approval of Parent, which approval may be withheld in the sole discretion of Parent.

(b) Concurrently with the delivery of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Working Capital Certificate and the Estimated Merger Consideration Statement, the Company shall furnish to the Parent statements from one or more financial institutions at which the Company has deposited its cash and cash equivalents evidencing the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of such date. The Company shall also make available to Parent such other books, records and other information (including work papers) as it may request in order to review the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Working Capital Certificate and Estimated Merger Consideration Statement.

(c) If Parent approves the Estimated Merger Consideration Statement pursuant to Section 1.6(a), then the Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration set forth therein shall be final and binding as the “Aggregate Merger Consideration” and “Per Share Merger Consideration,” respectively, for purposes of this Agreement. If Parent does not so approve the Estimated Merger Consideration Statement, the Company and Parent shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Adjustments”) any differences as to the Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration and, if all such differences are resolved prior to Closing, then the Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration, as adjusted by the Agreed Adjustments, shall be final and binding as the “Aggregate Merger Consideration” and “Per Share Merger Consideration,” respectively, for purposes of this Agreement. If any differences as to the Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration are not resolved prior to Closing then, at Closing, Parent shall deposit into the Exchange Fund an amount in cash (the “Escrowed Amount”) it believes to be sufficient to effect the payment of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)). Such deposit shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Exchange Agent to be held, invested and disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Exchange Agent Agreement. For a period of fifteen (15) days following Closing, Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall continue to attempt to resolve any differences as to the Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration by Agreed Adjustments. If any such differences are not resolved within fifteen (15) days following Closing, then Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall submit the differences that are then unresolved to Grant Thornton LLP (the “Accounting Firm”), and the Accounting Firm shall be directed by Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative to resolve the unresolved differences as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of its appointment, and to deliver written notice to each of Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative setting forth its resolution of the disputed matters. Parent shall make available to the Accounting Firm and the Shareholders’ Representative such books, records and other information (including work papers) as the Accounting Firm or the Shareholders’ Representative may request in order to review the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Estimated

Merger Consideration Statement. Parent shall pay a portion of the Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses in an amount equal to the product of (i) the aggregate amount of the Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount in dispute that is ultimately unsuccessfully disputed by Parent (as determined by the Accounting Firm), and the denominator of which is the total amount in dispute. The remaining portion of the Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses shall be deducted from the Aggregate Merger Consideration. The Estimated Aggregate Merger Consideration and Estimated Per Share Merger Consideration, in each case after giving effect to any Agreed Adjustments and the resolution of any disputed matters by the Accounting Firm, shall be final and binding as the “Aggregate Merger Consideration” and “Per Share Merger Consideration,” respectively, for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Promptly, but not later than five (5) Business Days, after the determination of the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.6(c) that is final and binding as set forth therein:

(i) if the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)) exceeds the Escrowed Amount, then Parent shall (A) pay to the Exchange Agent an amount in cash equal to the excess of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)) over the Escrowed Amount, which amount, together with the amount deposited by Parent at the Closing, shall constitute the “Exchange Fund” for purposes of this Agreement, and (B) instruct the Exchange Agent to distribute the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 1.7 and the Exchange Agent Agreement; or

(ii) if the Escrowed Amount exceeds the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)), then Parent shall (A) instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Parent an amount in cash equal to the excess of the Escrowed Amount over the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)), and the remaining amount held by the Exchange Agent shall constitute the “Exchange Fund,” for purposes of this Agreement and (B) instruct the Exchange Agent to distribute the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 1.7 and the Exchange Agent Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate amount of consideration payable by Parent, Sub or the Surviving Corporation to the Company Shareholders and holders of Company Stock Options in connection with the Merger exceed (i) the Aggregate Merger Consideration plus (ii) the amount, if any, by which the fair value of the Dissenting Shares determined in accordance with Section 1091 of the OGCA exceeds the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all such Dissenting Shares.

Section 1.7 Exchange Agent.

(a) As of the Effective Time, Parent shall designate, and enter into an agreement (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) with, Computershare Inc., a Delaware corporation, or another Person reasonably acceptable to the Company, to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”), which agreement shall provide that Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent as of the Effective Time or, if Parent and the Company have not agreed as to the Aggregate Merger Consideration as of the Effective Time, then at the time specified in Section 1.6(d), cash sufficient to effect the payment of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration for all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.5(b)) (the “Exchange Fund”).

(b) Parent shall request the Exchange Agent to, promptly after the Effective Time, mail to each Company Shareholder who holds of record of a certificate or certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”) representing shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon actual delivery thereof to the Exchange Agent and shall contain instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such Certificates in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration (the “Transmittal Letter”)). Upon surrender for cancellation to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates held by any Company Shareholder, together with the Transmittal Letter, duly executed, such Company Shareholder shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in exchange for each share of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates, and any Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

Section 1.8 Withholding. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement (including Section 1.5(c) and Section 1.13(a)) to any Person such amounts as Parent or the Surviving Corporation is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person who otherwise would have received the payment in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.9 Return of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed by the Exchange Agent to the Company Shareholders for 180 calendar days after the final determination of the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.6(c) shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand of Parent, and any such Company Shareholders who have not theretofore complied with this Article I shall thereafter look only to Parent for

payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to which they are entitled. None of the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any former holder of Company Common Stock for any consideration payable in accordance with this Article I which is delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

Section 1.10 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All cash paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock.

Section 1.11 Closing of Company Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and no transfer of shares of Company Common Stock shall thereafter be made on the records of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Exchange Agent, such Certificates shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

Section 1.12 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to such Certificate, Parent will pay or cause to be paid in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Per Share Merger Consideration.

Section 1.13 Company Stock Options.

(a) All Company Stock Options (other than Out-of-the-Money Company Stock Options) granted under the Company Stock Plans and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then exercisable or vested, shall cease to represent, as of the Effective Time, a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be converted, in settlement and cancellation thereof, into the right to receive, at the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the excess of (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration plus the per share amount of the Special Dividend over (B) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Common Stock for which such Company Stock Option shall not theretofore have been exercised. All Out-of-the-Money Company Stock Options granted under the Company Stock Plans and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then exercisable or vested, shall, as of the Effective Time, be cancelled, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect.

(b) Effective at or before the Effective Time, the Company Stock Plans and all awards thereunder shall terminate, and all rights under any provision of any other plan, program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest with respect to the capital stock or other equity interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be canceled, without any liability on the part of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement).

(c) From and after the Effective Time, no Person shall have any right under any Company Stock Plan or under any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement with respect to equity interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement).

(d) Not later than immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board or any committee thereof administering the Company Stock Plans shall adopt all resolutions necessary to provide for the foregoing, and the Company shall take any other action necessary to effect the foregoing. As soon as reasonably practicable after the final determination of the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.6(c), Parent shall make, or cause to be made, a cash contribution to the Surviving Corporation in an amount sufficient for the Surviving Corporation to pay the holders of Company Stock Options the cash payments specified in this Section 1.13. As soon as reasonably practicable after its receipt of such contribution, the Surviving Corporation shall pay the holders of Company Stock Options the cash payments specified in this Section 1.13. No interest shall be paid or accrue on cash payments to holders of Company Stock Options. The Company shall cooperate with Parent, and keep Parent fully informed, with respect to all resolutions, actions and consents that the Company intends to adopt, take and obtain in connection with the matters described in this Section 1.13.

any its ERISA Affiliates, has any current or contingent liability or obligation (“Company Plans”). For purposes of this Agreement, “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which is under common control or would be considered a single employer with such Person pursuant to Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated under those sections or pursuant to Section 4001(b) of ERISA and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Each Company Plan complies, and has been operated and administered to comply, with its terms and ERISA, the Code and any other applicable Law and there has been no notice issued by any Governmental Entity questioning or challenging such compliance, and there are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened involving any Company Plan or the assets of any Company Plan.

No contribution, premium payment or other payment has been made in support of any Company Plan that is in excess of the allocable deduction for federal income tax purposes for the year with respect to which the contribution was made (whether under Section 404 of the Code or otherwise).

(d) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates currently maintains, contributes to or has any liability under or, at any time in the past has maintained, contributed to or had any liability under, (i) any Company Plan subject to the minimum funding standards of Section 412 or 4971 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA or to Title IV of ERISA; (ii) a “multi-employer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA); (iii) a “multiple employer plan” within the meaning of Section 413(c) of the Code; or (iv) a multiple employer welfare benefit arrangement (as defined in Section 3(40)(A) of ERISA). Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has any liability of any kind whatsoever, whether known or unknown, direct, indirect, contingent or otherwise, under Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 or 4971 of the Code. Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates: (i) has withdrawn from any pension plan under circumstances resulting (or expected to result) in a liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation; or (ii) has engaged in any transaction which would give rise to a liability of the Company or Parent under Section 4069 or Section 4212(c) of ERISA.

(e) With respect to the Company Plans, no event or set of circumstances has occurred and there exists no condition or set of circumstances in connection with which the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates or any Company Plan fiduciary could be subject to any liability under the terms of such Company Plans, ERISA, the Code or any other applicable Law. Each Company Plan that is intended by its terms to be, or is otherwise treated by the Company as, qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has been the subject of a favorable determination letter from the IRS or, with respect to a prototype plan, can rely on an opinion letter from the IRS to the prototype plan sponsor, to the effect that such Company Plan is so qualified, and that such Company Plan and the trust related thereto are exempt from federal income Taxes under Section 401(a) and 501(a), respectively, of the Code, and no circumstance exists which might cause such Company Plan to cease being so qualified in operation, and no such determination or opinion letter has been revoked nor, to the Knowledge of the Company, has revocation been threatened or any fact or event occurred that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of any such Company Plan or the exempt status of any such trust. No Company Plan has been amended since the date of its most recent determination or opinion letter or application therefor in any respect that would adversely affect its qualification or materially increase its costs.

(f) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has any liability or obligation under any Company Plan or otherwise to provide post-employment or retiree benefits to or in respect of any former employee or any other Person other than as specifically required by Section 4980B of the Code, Part 6 of Title I of ERISA or other applicable Law.

With respect to any Company Plan that is an employee welfare benefit plan, no such Company Plan is unfunded or funded through a “welfare benefits fund” (as such term is defined in Section 419(e) of the Code).

(g) With respect to any Company Plan, no event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that has resulted in or would subject the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates to a Tax under Section 4971 of the Code or the assets of the Company to a lien under Section 430(k) of the Code. There are no nonexempt prohibited transactions within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA with respect to any Company Plan that has occurred that would give rise to liability on the part of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, any officer of the Company or any of the Company Plans under Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or otherwise and no breaches of fiduciary duty have occurred which may give rise to liability on the part of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates under Sections 409 or 502(l) of ERISA or otherwise.

(h) With respect to each Company Plan that is a “non-qualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code and is subject to Section 409A of the Code, (i) the written terms of such Company Plan have at all times since January 1, 2009 been in compliance with, and (ii) such Company Plan has, at all times while subject to Section 409A of the Code, been operated in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the regulations promulgated thereunder and all applicable guidance thereunder. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any obligation to provide any gross-up payment to any individual with respect to any Tax obligation under Section 4999 or 409A of the Code or otherwise.

(i) No amount that could be received, whether in cash or property or the vesting of property, as a result of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated hereby by any employee, officer or director of the Company or any of its Affiliates who is a “disqualified individual,” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, under any Company Plan, either alone or together with any other event, could be characterized as an “excess parachute payment,” as defined in Section 280G of the Code, or would constitute an “excess parachute payment” if such amount were subject to the provisions of Section 280G of the Code. No Person is entitled to a gross-up payment from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the imposition of a Tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

(j) Except as set forth in Section 3.12(j) of the Company Letter, the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and compliance with the terms hereof (whether alone or in connection with any subsequent other event(s)) will not, (i) entitle any employee, officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any severance, transaction bonus, change in control, retention or other payment, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or trigger any payment or funding, through a grantor trust or otherwise, of compensation or benefits under, increase the amount payable or trigger any other material obligation pursuant to, any Company Plan or (iii) result in any breach or violation of, or a default under, any Company Plan.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.2, if after the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, (i) the Company receives an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Agreement, (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined) and (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to take the actions referred to in clause (x) or (y) below would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company Shareholders under applicable

Law, then, prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company may (x) furnish to the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with such Third Party with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; provided that (1) prior to furnishing such information to, or participating in discussions or negotiations with, such Third Party, the Company receives from such Third Party an executed confidentiality agreement on customary terms and with provisions not less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (as hereinafter defined) and (2) prior to or concurrently with the time any such information is provided to such Third Party, the Company shall provide to Parent any such information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that was not previously provided to Parent.

(c) The Company shall promptly, and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours after it receives any Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, offer or inquiry that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any request for information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, advise Parent orally and in writing of such Acquisition Proposal, or other proposal, offer, inquiry or request, including providing the identity of the Third Party making or submitting such Acquisition Proposal, or other proposal, offer, inquiry or request, and (i) if such Acquisition Proposal or other proposal, offer or inquiry is in writing, a copy of such Acquisition Proposal or other proposal, offer or inquiry and any related draft agreements and other written material setting forth the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal or other proposal, offer or inquiry and (ii) if such Acquisition Proposal or other proposal, offer or inquiry is made orally, a reasonably detailed written summary thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 4.2(d), prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, in response to the receipt, after the date hereof, of a Superior Proposal that has not been withdrawn and that did not otherwise result from a breach of this Agreement, and provided that the Company and its Subsidiaries have complied with this Section 4.2, including the following sentence of this Section 4.2(e), the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in order to cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(h) and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal if (and only if) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company Shareholders under applicable Law. The Company Board shall not make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless (i) concurrently with the termination of this Agreement the Company pays the Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 5.3(d) and reimburses Parent for its costs and expenses pursuant to Section 5.3(b), (ii) the Company has, at least five (5) Business Days prior to making such Company Adverse Recommendation Change (the “Notice Period”), provided a written notice (the “Notice of Adverse Recommendation Change”) to Parent advising Parent that the Company Board intends to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, identify the Person making such Superior Proposal and attach copies of any agreements intended to effect such Superior Proposal, (iii) during such Notice Period, the Company and its Representatives have negotiated in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby proposed by Parent in response to such Superior Proposal or otherwise and (iv) taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent to the Company, the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure by it to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company Shareholders under applicable Law and such Superior Proposal continues to meet the definition of the term “Superior Proposal”; provided, however, that if during the Notice Period any revisions are made to the Superior Proposal and such revisions are material (it being understood and agreed that any change to consideration with respect to such Superior Proposal is material), the Company shall provide written notice of such revisions to Parent and the Notice Period shall be extended by an additional three (3) Business Day period from the date of such notice.

(f) Nothing in this Section 4.2 shall prohibit the Company Board from taking and disclosing to the Company Shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act so long as such disclosure is limited to (i) a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) an express rejection of an applicable Acquisition Proposal or (iii) an express reaffirmation of the Company Recommendation; provided, however, that any action that constitutes a Company Adverse Recommendation Change may only be made in compliance with Section 4.2(e).

(g) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal, offer or inquiry relating to: (A) any acquisition or purchase from the Company by any Third Party of 15% or more of the total outstanding voting securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (B) any tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any Third Party beneficially owning 15% or more of the total outstanding voting securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (C) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Company pursuant to which the Company Shareholders immediately preceding such transaction would hold less than 85% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction in substantially the same proportion as prior to such transaction; (D) any sale, lease, exchange, transfer, license, acquisition or disposition of 15% or more of the assets (based on the fair market value thereof) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (E) any liquidation or dissolution of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that “Acquisition Proposal” shall not include the IM Sale pursuant to the IM Purchase Agreement;

(ii) “Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal to acquire more than (A) 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company or (B) 50% of the consolidated assets (based on the fair market value thereof) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in either case on terms that, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Company Board, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, taking into account all relevant legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal (including the identity of the Third Party making such proposal and the anticipated timing, conditions and prospects for completion of such proposal) and this Agreement (including any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such proposal or otherwise), (x) is more favorable, from a financial point of view, to the Company Shareholders than the Merger and (y) for which any necessary financing is fully committed; and

(iii) “Third Party” means any Person or group (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) other than Parent and its Affiliates.

Section 4.3 Third Party Standstill Agreements.

During such period, the Company agrees to enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreements, including obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction.

(e) The Company acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 5.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that without these agreements Parent would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 5.3 and, in order to obtain any such payment Parent commences a suit which results in a judgment against the Company for any of the amounts set forth in this Section 5.3, the Company shall pay to Parent its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amounts due pursuant to this Section 5.3 at the prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

(b) Each party shall use all reasonable best efforts to not take any action, or enter into any transaction, which would cause any of its representations or warranties contained in this Agreement to be untrue or result in a breach of any covenant made by it in this Agreement.

Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, and the Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, of: (i) the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of which it is aware and which would be reasonably likely to cause (A) any representation or warranty of the notifying party contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (B) any covenant, condition or agreement of the notifying party contained in this Agreement not to be complied with or satisfied in all material respects; (ii) any failure of Parent or the Company, as the case may be, to comply in a timely manner with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder; (iii) any change, event or effect which would be reasonably likely to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or on Parent, as the case may be; and (iv) the receipt of any written communication from any Person alleging that a consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.9 Employee Benefit Plans and Agreements.

(a) Parent shall determine the terms and conditions of employment for each employee from and after the Effective Time.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as an amendment or other modification of any Company Plan or other employee benefit plan, program or arrangement or the establishment of any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a guarantee of employment for any employee of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, or to restrict the right of the Surviving Corporation, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries to terminate or cause to be terminated the employment of any employee at any time for any or no reason with or without notice. Parent and the Company acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 5.9 are included for the sole benefit of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries, and that nothing in this Section 5.9, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) of Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or (ii) to continued employment with Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or continued participation in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement.

(b) To the extent that, following the Effective Time, Parent causes employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to be eligible to participate in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates (each such plan, program or arrangement, a “Parent Plan”), Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the applicable Parent Plan to recognize prior service of such employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries as service with Parent and its Affiliates to (i) credit each employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any predecessor employers thereto, to the extent credited under the analogous Company Plan, as service with Parent and its Affiliates for purposes of eligibility and vesting under such Parent Plan, but not for any other purposes, including for purposes of determining benefit accruals, vacation benefits or early retirement subsidies under any defined benefit pension plan of Parent or its Affiliates; provided, however, that in no event shall the employees be entitled to any credit to the extent that it would result in duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any and all pre-existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods, active employment requirements and requirements to show evidence of good health under such Parent Plan, to the extent that such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods would have been waived or satisfied under the analogous Company Plan in which such employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, to be waived with respect to such employee and such individual’s spouse and eligible dependents who become participants in such Parent Plan, subject to the conditions, regulations, underwriting criteria or similar provisions imposed by any of Parent’s insurers.

Section 5.11 IM Purchase Agreement.

(a) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of which it is aware and which would be reasonably likely to cause (i) any representation or warranty of the Company contained in the IM Purchase Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (ii) any covenant, condition or agreement of the Company contained in the IM Purchase Agreement not to be complied with or satisfied in all material respects. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date thereof, the Company shall give notice to Parent, and shall provide copies to Parent, of any proposed amendment, modification or waiver of the IM Purchase Agreement, and shall not enter into any such amendment, modification or waiver without the prior written consent of Parent.

(b) The Company shall comply in all material respects with all agreements and covenants required to be performed by it under the IM Purchase Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of the IM Purchase Agreement and the Promissory Note, including obtaining injunctions to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction.

(c) Each Company Shareholder who votes in favor of this Agreement or executes a Shareholder Written Consent in approval of this Agreement and the Merger, or whose shares of Company Common Stock are converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.5(c) (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any holder of Dissenting Shares), agrees that Parent, Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to unconditionally assume that any action taken or omitted, or any document executed by, Kidd

purporting to act as Shareholders’ Representative under or pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been unconditionally authorized by such Company Shareholder to be taken, omitted to be taken or executed on such Company Shareholder’s behalf so that such Company Shareholder will be legally bound thereby, and each such Company Shareholder agrees not to institute any claim, lawsuit, alternative dispute resolution or other proceeding against Parent, Sub or the Surviving Corporation alleging that Kidd did not have the authority to act as Shareholders’ Representative on behalf of such Company Shareholder in connection with any such action, omission or execution, and each of Parent, Sub and the Surviving Corporation are hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with the written instructions or agreement of the Shareholders’ Representative. No modification or revocation of the power of attorney granted by such Company Shareholders herein to Kidd to serve as Shareholders’ Representative shall be effective as against Parent, Sub or the Surviving Corporation until Parent, Sub and the Surviving Corporation have received a document signed by such Company Shareholder effecting said modification or revocation.
