ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, Liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, Liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) At the Effective Time, the Company Certificate shall, subject to Section 5.08, by virtue of or in connection with the Merger, be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in Exhibit A and, as so amended, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter further amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(c) At the Effective Time, and without any further action on the part of the Company and Merger Sub, the Company Bylaws shall be amended and restated in their entirety to read as the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references therein to Merger Sub shall be automatically amended and shall become references to the Surviving Corporation and, as so amended, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(d) The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, continue as the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) If at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall determine, in its sole discretion, or shall be advised, that any deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of either of the Company or Merger Sub acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection

- 2 -

with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, then the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or Merger Sub, all such deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, assignments and assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of each of such corporations or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title or interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

Section 1.02 Closing and Effective Time of the Merger. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on a date to be specified by the parties (the “Closing Date”), such date to be no later than the second Business Day after satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions at the Closing), at the offices of Jones Day, 1755 Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto, California 94303, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. On the Closing Date, or on such other date as Parent and the Company may agree to in writing, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cause a certificate of merger or other appropriate documents (in any case, the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger shall have been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or such later date and time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger, such date and time hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

Section 1.03 Meeting of Stockholders to Approve the Merger.

(a) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to, within five Business Days after the date of this Agreement, prepare and file with the SEC preliminary proxy materials for the Special Meeting (together with any amendments and supplements thereto and any other required proxy materials, the “Proxy Statement”) relating to the Merger and this Agreement. Subject to Section 5.03(d) and Section 5.03(e), the Company shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to, within four Business Days after the date of this Agreement, provide the Company with such information concerning Parent and Merger Sub as may be reasonably requested by the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.03(a), prior to filing the preliminary Proxy Statement, a definitive Proxy Statement or any other filing with the SEC in connection with the Transactions, the Company shall provide Parent and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on each such filing in advance, and the Company shall include in such filing all comments reasonably proposed by Parent in respect of such filings. The Company shall notify Parent promptly of the receipt of any oral or written comments from the SEC or its staff (or of notice of the SEC’s intent to review) and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or any other filing with the SEC in connection with the Transactions or for additional or supplemental information in connection therewith. The Company shall, as promptly as practicable after the

- 3 -

receipt of such comments from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement or any other such filing (i) supply Parent with copies of all written correspondence received in connection therewith and (ii) provide Parent a reasonably detailed description of any oral comments received in connection therewith. The Company (1) shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any responses to comments or inquiries by the SEC with respect to any filings related to the Transactions, (2) shall include in such response all comments reasonably proposed by Parent in respect of the filings, (3) shall not file or mail such document, or respond to the SEC, prior to receiving the approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (4) shall provide Parent and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions or meetings with the SEC or its staff with respect to such filings. The Company shall respond in good faith to any comments by the SEC as promptly as practical. Parent shall provide its comments to the Company as promptly as practicable.

(c) If the Company: (i) does not receive comments from the SEC with respect to the preliminary Proxy Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file definitive proxy materials (including the definitive Proxy Statement) with the SEC and cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to the stockholders of the Company on or prior to the third Business Day after the expiration of the 10-day waiting period provided in Rule 14a-6(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (ii) does receive comments from the SEC with respect to the preliminary Proxy Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file definitive proxy materials (including the definitive Proxy Statement) with the SEC and cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to the stockholders of the Company on or prior to the third Business Day immediately following clearance by the SEC with respect to such comments.

(d) If, at any time prior to the date of the Special Meeting, any event or information relating to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, or any of their Affiliates should be discovered by Parent or the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy 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 false or misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties and the Company shall cause an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information to be filed with the SEC as promptly as practicable thereafter and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company.

(e) The Company, acting through the Company Board, shall, in accordance with applicable Law: (i) duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its stockholders as promptly as practicable, and in any event (to the extent permissible under applicable Law) no earlier than 30 days and no later than 40 days after the mailing of the definitive Proxy Statement to the stockholders of the Company, for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval (the “Special Meeting”) and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from the stockholders of the Company proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and secure the vote or consent of the stockholders of the Company as required by the rules of the NASDAQ, the DGCL or other applicable Law to effect the Merger. The Company shall give Parent no less than 10 Business Days’ advance notice (or such shorter period of time as notice is provided to the NASDAQ) of the date which shall be set as the

- 4 -

“record date” for the Special Meeting. The Company shall consult with Parent regarding the date of the Special Meeting and shall not change the record date or postpone or adjourn the Special Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent; provided that Parent may cause the Company to postpone or adjourn the Special Meeting by prior written notice to the Company to a date that is not later than five Business Days prior to the Outside Date by prior written notice to the Company.

(f) The Company shall ensure that the Special Meeting is called, noticed, convened, held and conducted, and that all Persons solicited in connection with the Special Meeting are solicited, in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Law. The adoption of this Agreement and adjournment of the Special Meeting, as necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes in favor of adoption of this Agreement shall be the only matters which the Company shall propose to be acted on by the stockholders of the Company at the Special Meeting, unless otherwise approved in writing by Parent.

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees that (i) its obligation to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Special Meeting shall not be affected by any Change of Board Recommendation and (ii) its obligations pursuant to this Section 1.03 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal). Unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.01, the Company agrees that it shall not submit to the vote of the stockholders of the Company any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) prior to the vote of the stockholders of the Company with respect to the Merger at the Special Meeting.

(h) At the Special Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, Parent shall vote, or cause to be voted, all of the Shares then owned of record by Parent or Merger Sub or with respect to which Parent or Merger Sub otherwise has, directly or indirectly, voting power in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver or provide (or cause to be delivered or provided), in its capacity as a stockholder of the Company, any other stockholder approvals that are required by applicable Law to effect the Merger.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES IN THE MERGER

Section 2.01 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Shares. Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and other than Dissenting Shares, shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, payable net to the holder in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.02(f) and upon surrender of the Certificate formerly representing such Shares (or, in the case of Book-Entry Shares, surrender of such Book-Entry Shares) in accordance with Section 2.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares of Equity Plan Stock shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.04(b).

- 5 -

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. All Shares that are held in the treasury of the Company or owned of record by any Company Subsidiary that is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by the Company, and all Shares owned of record by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, with no payment being made with respect thereto.

(c) Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one newly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.02 Payment for Securities; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall designate a reputable bank or trust company to act as the paying agent for purposes of effecting the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”). At or promptly after the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration to which holders of Shares shall be entitled at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement upon surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as the case may be; provided, however, in the event that such funds on deposit with the Paying Agent are insufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration, Parent or Merger Sub shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent such additional funds as are necessary to ensure that the Paying Agent has funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration. Such funds shall be invested or otherwise held by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or Merger Sub, in their sole discretion, pending payment thereof by the Paying Agent to the holders of the Shares. Earnings from such investments, if any, shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent or Merger Sub, and no part of any such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of holders of Shares.

(b) Procedures for Surrender. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates that represented Shares (the “Certificates”) or non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”), in each case, which Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement:

(i) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Shares, as the case may be, to the Paying Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent or the Paying Agent may reasonably specify; and

(ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or transfer of Book-Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration.

- 6 -

(c) Cancellation of Shares; Payment of Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of Certificates or transfer of Book-Entry Shares for cancellation to the Paying Agent, and upon delivery of a letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form in accordance with the instructions thereto, with respect to such Certificates or an agent’s message in the case of a book entry transfer of Book-Entry Shares, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration for each Share formerly represented by such Certificates and for each Book-Entry Share. Any Certificates and Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name any surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered and shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in cash as contemplated by this Agreement, without interest thereon.

(d) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. All cash paid upon the surrender of Certificates or the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(e) Termination of Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. At any time following the nine month anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) made available to the Paying Agent and not disbursed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof with respect to the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.02(b), without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.02(f). If, immediately prior to such time on which any payment in respect hereof would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares has not complied with the procedures in Section 2.02(b) to

- 7 -

receive payment of the Merger Consideration to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, the payment in respect of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be Liable to any holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Shares for Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Withholding Rights. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration or any other payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, Company Options, shares of Equity Plan Stock, or any other Person pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable, such amounts that Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any provision of applicable Law, including with respect to any stock transfer Taxes payable by holder of Shares, Company Options or shares of Equity Plan Stock. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, Parent shall pay (unless the Paying Agent is the entity withholding such amounts, in which case, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Paying Agent to pay) such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority and such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares, Company Options or shares of Equity Plan Stock, as applicable, in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent.

(g) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.01(a); provided, however, that Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any Action that may be made against Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Section 2.03 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who is entitled to demand and has properly demanded appraisal for such Shares in accordance with, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (such Shares, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and shall instead represent the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses his right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL or other applicable Law, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into and shall be exchangeable solely for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes required by

- 8 -

applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.02(f). The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights to be paid the fair value of Dissenting Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and to control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment (unless required by Law) with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demands, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing. Any portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration made available to the Paying Agent to pay for Shares that have become Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Parent upon demand.

Section 2.04 Treatment of Company Options, Company Restricted Stock, Company RSUs and Company Performance RSUs. No later than immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall have taken all requisite action such that:

(a) Company Options. Each Company Option that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding as of the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall be, by virtue of the occurrence of the Effective Time and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the holder of such Company Option or any other Person, cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Corporation, within 30 days following the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Shares subject to such Company Option, and (y) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price under such Company Option. If the per share exercise price under any such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be cancelled pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) without payment of consideration.

(b) Treatment of Company RSUs, Company Performance RSUs, Company Restricted Stock. The payout of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(a) in exchange for each Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time remains subject to the Company’s outstanding right to claim the return of such share under the terms of any Company RSU, Company Performance RSU and share of Company Restricted Stock (each Company RSU, Company Performance RSU and share of Company Restricted Stock, a share of “Equity Plan Stock”) shall, after giving effect to the deemed performance vesting level of Company Performance RSUs pursuant to Section 2.04(c), remain subject to the time-based vesting terms that apply with respect to the applicable share of Equity Plan Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time under the equity plan award agreement and any other applicable Contract that is in effect on the date of this Agreement, in each case, pertaining to the applicable share of Equity Plan Stock (together, the “Equity Plan Documents”). The Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to Section 2.01(a) in exchange for each share of Equity Plan Stock that is unvested at the Effective Time (“Unvested Cash”) shall not be payable by the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time and shall instead be paid by Parent in a cash lump-sum on the date upon which the applicable share of Equity Plan Stock would have vested under the time-based vesting terms and other conditions set forth in the Equity Plan Documents (and provided that if such terms and conditions are not satisfied and time-based vesting ceases to continue at any point and does not otherwise accelerate pursuant to the terms of the Equity Plan Documents, no cash payment shall be made with respect to the applicable share of Equity Plan

- 9 -

Stock). All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall be paid without interest. Following the Effective Time, no Unvested Cash, or right thereto, may be pledged, encumbered, sold, assigned or transferred (including any transfer by operation of law), by any Person, other than to the Surviving Corporation, or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any Liability of such Person, prior to the payment to such Person of such Unvested Cash in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each share of Equity Plan Stock held by a non-employee director of the Company that is outstanding as of the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall not be assumed or substituted for by Parent and shall instead be cancelled in exchange for a payment by the Surviving Corporation in respect of each share of Equity Plan Stock in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration, to be paid in a cash lump-sum as soon as practicable (but in no event later than 30 days) following the Effective Time.

(c) Deemed Performance of Company Performance RSUs. Prior to the Effective Time, each Company Performance RSU that will be converted into a right to receive Unvested Cash pursuant to Section 2.04(b) will be determined as follows: (i) each Company Performance RSU granted in October 2010 with respect to the Company’s 2011 fiscal year shall be treated as if the award had vested as set forth in Section 2.04(c)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and (ii) each Company Performance RSU granted in November 2011 with respect to the Company’s 2012 fiscal year shall be treated as if the award had vested as set forth in Section 2.04(c)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Following the Effective Time, the Unvested Cash payable with respect to Company Performance RSUs pursuant to Section 2.04(b) shall not be subject to any of the performance-based vesting terms that currently apply to such awards but shall, in all events, continue to be subject to the time-based vesting terms currently applicable to such awards.

Section 2.05 Treatment of Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Each current “Offering Period” (as defined in the ESPP) in progress as of the date of this Agreement under the ESPP shall continue, and the Shares shall be issued to participants thereunder on the next currently scheduled purchase dates thereunder occurring after the date of this Agreement as provided under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the ESPP. Any Offering Period in progress as of the Effective Time shall be shortened, and the last day of each such Offering Period shall be the second Business Day immediately preceding the Effective Time. Each then outstanding option under the ESPP shall be exercised automatically on the last day of such Offering Period. Notwithstanding any restrictions on transfer of stock in the ESPP, the treatment in the Merger of any Shares under this provision shall be in accordance with Section 2.01(a). The Company shall terminate the ESPP as of or immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall, promptly after the date of this Agreement, take all actions (including, if appropriate, amending the terms of the ESPP) that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05 and as are appropriate to avoid the commencement of any new offering of options thereunder at or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the Effective Time.

Section 2.06 No Right to Equity Under Awards. The parties agree that following the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Option, Company RSU, Company Performance RSU or any other equity-based awards shall have any right hereunder to acquire any Equity Interest (including any “phantom” stock or stock appreciation rights) in the Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.07 Waivers; Board or Committee Resolutions.

(a) To the extent necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated in Section 2.04, the Company shall, at least 10 Business Days prior to the Effective Time, use its reasonable best efforts to provide notice, in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, to each holder of outstanding Company Options and shares of Equity Plan Stock.

(b) Prior to or promptly after the date of this Agreement, the Company Board or any committee thereof that administers the Company Stock Option Plans shall adopt resolutions, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent, that (i) implement the transactions set forth in Section 2.04, (ii) terminate each Company Stock Option Plan effective as of or immediately prior to the Effective time and (iii) approve the transactions contemplated in Section 2.04 as valid under the terms of the Company Stock Option Plans and the award agreements issued thereunder and further document that:

(i) the transactions contemplated in Section 2.04 are consistent with the terms of the Company Stock Option Plans and the award agreements issued thereunder;

(ii) Parent’s assumption of the obligation to pay the Merger Consideration with respect to any Unvested Cash that vests pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 2.04(b) and Section 2.04(c) will result in Parent substituting an equivalent award for each share of Equity Plan Stock that becomes subject to the terms set forth in Section 2.04(b) and Section 2.04(c); and

(iii) the consummation of the Merger will not accelerate the vesting of any shares of Equity Plan Stock that are exchanged for Unvested Cash, except as specifically provided by (A) Section 2.04(a) with respect to Company Options, (B) Section 2.04(b) with respect to any such shares held by non-employee directors of the Company or (C) the express terms of the Equity Plan Documents relating to such award and the terms of the Company Stock Option Plan as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

Section 2.08 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that the Company changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of Company Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, subdivision, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding shares of Company Stock, at any time during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such transaction; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.08 shall be construed as permitting the Company to take any action or enter into any transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

- 51 -

agreements with the Person making such Superior Proposal (the “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”)) and other material documents with respect to such Superior Proposal (including any with respect to the financing thereof); and

(ii) prior to effecting such Change of Board Recommendation or terminating this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, (A) if requested by Parent, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, during the Superior Proposal Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (B) Parent shall not have, during the Superior Proposal Notice Period, made a written offer that would, upon the Company’s acceptance thereof, be binding on Parent and that, after consideration of such offer by the Company Board in good faith and After Consultation, results in the Company Board determining that such Superior Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal.

In the event of any amendment to the financial terms or any other material revisions to the Superior Proposal, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent pursuant to Section 5.03(d)(i) and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.03(d) with respect to such new written notice (including a new Superior Proposal Notice Period), except the Superior Proposal Notice Period shall be at least three Business Days (rather than the four Business Days contemplated by Section 5.03(d)(i) above).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and solely in response to an Intervening Event, the Company Board may effect a Change of Board Recommendation prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval if the Company Board determines in good faith, After Consultation, that the failure to effect a Change of Board Recommendation would reasonably be likely to result in a breach of the Company Board’s fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board may not effect such a Change of Board Recommendation unless:

(i) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent, at least four Business Days in advance (the “Intervening Event Notice Period”), of its intention to effect such a Change of Board Recommendation (which notice itself shall not constitute a Change of Board Recommendation), which notice shall specify the details of such Intervening Event and the basis upon which the Company Board intends to effect a Change of Board Recommendation; and

(ii) prior to effecting such Change of Board Recommendation, if requested by Parent, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, during the Intervening Event Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that a Change of Board Recommendation is no longer necessary; provided, further, that Parent shall not have, during the Intervening Event Notice Period, made a written offer that would, upon the Company’s acceptance thereof, be binding on Parent and that, after due consideration of such offer by the Company Board in good faith and After Consultation, results in the Company Board determining that it would continue to be reasonably likely to result in a breach of the Company Board’s fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law to not effect the Change of Board Recommendation.

-52 -

(iii) In the event of any material changes to the circumstances applicable to the Intervening Event, after the start of the Intervening Event Notice Period, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent pursuant to Section 5.03(e)(i) and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.03(e) with respect to such new written notice (including a new Intervening Event Notice Period), except the Intervening Event Notice Period shall be at least three Business Days (rather than the four Business Days contemplated by Section 5.03(e)(i) above).

(f) The Company shall keep confidential any proposals made by Parent to revise the terms of this Agreement, other than in the event of any amendment to this Agreement and to the extent required to be disclosed in any Company SEC Documents.

(g) The Company agrees that any action taken by a Company Representative that, if taken by the Company, would constitute a material breach of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.03 shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Section 5.03 by the Company.

(h) Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit the Company Board from taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or otherwise complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company Board take any action prohibited by this Section 5.03.

In the event that the Company shall fail to obtain any third party action, approval, consent or waiver described in this Section 5.04(a), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, and shall take any such actions reasonably requested by

The Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Actions with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.08(a) in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Company Certificate, the Company Bylaws and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the director, officer or employee of the Company to whom expenses are advanced undertakes, to the extent required by the DGCL, to repay such advanced expenses to the Surviving Corporation if it is ultimately determined that such director, officer or employee is not entitled to indemnification under applicable Law.

(e) The obligations under this Section 5.08 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect in any material respect any indemnitee to whom this Section 5.08 applies without the consent of such affected indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the indemnitees to whom this Section 5.08 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.08).

No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent that such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

Section 8.14 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that prior to any valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01, (a) each party shall be entitled at its election to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, and this right shall include the right of the Company to cause Parent and Merger Sub to cause the Merger to be consummated and (b) the parties shall waive, in any Action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at Law. A party’s pursuit of specific performance at any time shall not be deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled, including the right to pursue remedies for Liabilities or damages incurred or suffered by such party in the case of a breach of this Agreement involving fraud or willful or intentional misconduct.

Section 8.15 Guaranty.

(a) To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, SAP AG, an Aktiengesellschaft organized under the laws of Germany (“Guarantor”), intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Company the due and punctual payment and performance of (i) Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations under this Agreement, including with respect to all fees and expenses associated therewith and (ii) Parent’s and Merger Sub’s Liability and obligations (including for breach) under this Agreement (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”), in each case, as and when due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. This guarantee may not be revoked or terminated and shall remain in full force and effect without interruption and shall be binding on Guarantor and its successors and assigns until the Guaranteed Obligations have been satisfied in full. Guarantor further covenants and agrees that, if requested by the Company, it will promptly appoint in accordance with applicable Law a registered agent for service of process in the State of Delaware, and Guarantor shall maintain such registered agent as its agent for service of process in the State of Delaware without interruption until the Effective Time.

(b) All payments pursuant to this Section 8.15 shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds. Guarantor promises and undertakes to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of Guarantor of any kind.

(c) The guarantee set forth in Section 8.15(a) (the “Guarantee”) is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of the full and punctual payment and performance by Parent and Merger Sub of the Guaranteed Obligations and not of collection. Should Parent or Merger Sub default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall become immediately due and payable to the Company or, to the extent that such obligations become due and payable after the Effective Time, to the stockholders of the Company. Claims hereunder may be made on one or more occasions. If any payment in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Guaranteed Obligation as if such payment had not been made.

(d) Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure or delay on the part of the Company to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Parent or Merger Sub; (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the addition, substitution or release of any Person interested in the Transactions; (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent or Merger Sub; (v) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Parent or Merger Sub or their assets; (vi) the adequacy of any means the Company may have of obtaining payment related to the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which Parent or Merger Sub may have at any time against the Company (other than rights of Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement), whether in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of the Guarantee and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of the Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the Transactions, and all suretyship defenses generally (other than, in each case, fraud, willful misconduct and intentional misrepresentation by the Company or any of its Affiliates), defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations that are available to Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement and defenses available to Guarantor under the Guarantee. Guarantor acknowledges that it has received and will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the Transactions and that the waivers set forth in this Section 8.15 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(e) No failure on the part of the Company to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power pursuant to this Section 8.15 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Company of any right, remedy or power pursuant to this Section 8.15 preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power pursuant to this Section 8.15. Each and every right, remedy and power granted to the Company pursuant to this Section 8.15 or allowed it by Law or agreement with respect to this Section 8.15 shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by the Company at any time or from time to time. The Company shall not have any obligation to proceed at any time or in any manner against, exhaust any or all of the Company’s rights against Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person liable for any Guaranteed Obligations prior to proceeding against Guarantor hereunder or resort to any security or other means of collecting payment. The Guarantee may only be amended by a writing signed and delivered by Guarantor and the Company. Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its respective Affiliates not to institute, any Action asserting that the Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles (whether considered an Action in equity or at law).

(f) Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Company and covenants that: (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of Guarantor’s organizational documents or any Law or contractual restriction binding on Guarantor or its assets; (ii) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, all Laws relating to fraudulent transfers), reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in an Action at law or in equity), (iii) nothing in this Agreement will terminate Guarantor’s obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement and (iv) Guarantor will not issue any press release or other communication in contravention of Section 5.06.

(g) Nothing in this Section 8.15 shall waive any defenses, counterclaims or rights of setoff that Parent or Merger Sub may have under this Agreement or applicable Law.
