Since the date indicated in such SEC Filing, there has not been any change in the Company’s capital stock, other than as a result of the exercise of stock options, the settlement of restricted stock units or the award of stock options or restricted stock units in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the Company’s stock-based compensation plans described in the SEC Filings. All of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; none of such shares were issued in violation of any preemptive rights; and such shares were issued in compliance in all material respects with applicable state and federal securities law and any rights of third parties.

(a) In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Shares by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the 1933 Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Investor with the requirements of this Agreement, if requested by the Investor, the Company shall request the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) Trading Days of any such request therefor from such Investor, provided that the Company has timely received from the Investor customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor shall not be restricted from engaging in a Permitted Transfer within the meaning of the Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on the Effective Date (or a transfer of Class A Common Stock that would be a Permitted Transfer within the meaning of the Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on the Effective Date if such transfer were of Class B Common Stock), so long as the transferee agrees in writing by execution of a joinder to be legally bound by the terms hereof as Investor.

8.3 Merger or Tender Offer Transaction.

8.6 Voting Neutralization. The Investor agrees that, following the Closing hereunder, at any time action is to be taken by the Company’s stockholders, whether by vote at a stockholders’ meeting or by written consent in lieu of a meeting, the Investor shall vote or cause to be voted (or take action or omit to take any action with respect to) all Covered Shares over which such Investor or his controlled Affiliates has sole or shared voting power so as to cause the Covered Shares to reflect the voting results (with respect to shares voted “for”, shares voted “against”, shares “abstained”, shares “withheld”, broker nonvotes and shares not present at the meeting for quorum purposes) of the Public Shares. The Investor hereby irrevocably appoints the Company’s Secretary, or any other designee of the Board (the Company’s Secretary or such other designee, the “Proxyholder”), as the Investor’s true and lawful proxy and attorney, with the power to act alone and with full power of substitution and re-substitution to vote (or cause to be voted, to take action or omit to take any action with respect to, or to give consent) in such manner as the Proxyholder or its, his or her substitute shall deem appropriate or desirable to carry out the purposes and intent of this Section 8.6 at any meeting of the Company held after the Effective Date, whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned meeting or, if applicable, to give written consent with respect thereto (the “Irrevocable Proxy”).
