ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate 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 and the Company in accordance with the DGCL, as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent.

Section 1.02 Closing.

The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.” Immediately prior to the Closing (and in any event prior to the effecting of the transactions contemplated by Section 6.01(b)), Parent and Sub shall deliver to the Company an irrecovable written confirmation that immediately following the satisfaction of (x) the condition set forth in Section 6.01(b), and subject only to the satisfaction of such condition, (y) the condition set forth in Section 6.01(d) and (z) the conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, Parent and Sub shall consummate the Merger.

Section 1.03 Effective Time. Concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall file a certificate of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with, the applicable provisions of the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective on the date and time at which the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such other date and time as is agreed between the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger (such date and time, the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.04 Organizational Documents, Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) Organizational Documents. At the Effective Time (i) the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated as set forth in Exhibit A until, subject to Section 5.09, thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the applicable provisions of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, and (ii) the parties hereto shall, subject to Section 5.09,

cause the bylaws of Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, to be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation (except that references to the name of Sub shall be replaced by references to the name of the Surviving Corporation) until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the applicable provisions of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Directors. The parties hereto shall take all necessary action such that the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation effective as of, and immediately following, the Effective Time shall consist of the members of the board of directors of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to hold office in accordance with the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Officers. The parties hereto shall take all necessary action such that, from and after the Effective Time, the officers of Sub at the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK

Section 2.01 Conversion of Securities.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Sub, the Company or the holders of any capital stock of the Company or Sub:

(i) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) and other than Dissenting Shares, shall automatically be converted into the right to receive $65.50 in cash, without interest and subject to Section 2.05 (the “Merger Consideration”), and all of such Shares shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each certificate that formerly represented any of the Shares (a “Certificate”) or non-certificated Share represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) (in each case, other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(ii) Cancellation of Company-Owned Shares and Parent-Owned Shares. All Shares that are held in the treasury of the Company or owned of record by any Company Subsidiary and all Shares owned of record by Parent, Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, with no payment being made with respect thereto.

(iii) Capital Stock of Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Sub shall be automatically converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Merger Consideration Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number

of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.01(b) shall be deemed to permit or authorize the Company to effect any such reclassification, stock split, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment, other similar transaction, stock dividend or stock distribution that is not otherwise authorized or permitted to be undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.02 Exchange of Certificates; Payment for Shares.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with a U.S.-based nationally recognized financial institution designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Shares, a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the Aggregate Merger Consideration (the “Exchange Fund”). In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.01(a)(i) (including if any Dissenting Shares cease to be Dissenting Shares), Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional funds with the Paying Agent in an amount sufficient to make such payments. Funds made available to the Paying Agent shall be invested by the Paying Agent, as directed by Parent, in short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days, pending payment thereof by the Paying Agent to the holders of Shares pursuant to this Article II; provided that no investment of such deposited funds shall relieve Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent from promptly making the payments required by this Article II, and following any losses from any such investment, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares, in the amount of such losses, which additional funds will be held and disbursed in the same manner as funds initially deposited with the Paying Agent for payment of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. Any interest or income produced by such investments will be payable to Sub or Parent, as Parent directs. Parent shall direct the Paying Agent to hold the Exchange Fund for the benefit of the former holders of Company Common Stock and to make payments from the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 2.02(b). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments pursuant to Section 2.02(b), except as expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(b) Payment Procedures.

(i) Certificates. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the fifth (5th) Business Day thereafter, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement: (A) 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 delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e)) to the Paying Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may agree; and (B) instructions

for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of any Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e)) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, if applicable, and upon delivery of a letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Certificates, and such other customary documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificates were converted pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. 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 and Merger Consideration may be issued to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall either pay to the Paying Agent 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 or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid.

(ii) Book-Entry Shares. Any holder of Book-Entry Shares whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II (or such other amount paid in respect of Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 2.04). In lieu thereof, each such registered holder of one or more Book-Entry Shares shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Merger Consideration for each Book-Entry Share and such Book-Entry Share shall forthwith be cancelled. 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.

(iii) No interest shall be paid or accrue on any portion of the Merger Consideration payable in respect of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.02(e)) or Book-Entry Share.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. As of 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. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Shares. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of 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 are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. At any time following the six-month anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) not disbursed to or claimed by holders of Shares, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the Merger Consideration payable in respect of their Shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.02(b), without interest and subject to Section 2.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Share for Merger Consideration properly delivered to a public official in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any portion of the Merger Consideration that would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity such Merger Consideration 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.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Paying Agent and Parent) of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate were converted pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i); provided, however, that the Paying Agent or Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to provide a bond in a customary amount.

Section 2.03 Treatment of Company Options and Equity Plans.

(a) Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company’s board of directors (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt all necessary resolutions to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares granted under a Company Stock Plan (the “Company Options”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be fully vested and cancelled by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such cancelled Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such cancelled Company Option, multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per Share subject to such cancelled Company Option, without interest (such amounts payable hereunder, the “Option Payments”); provided, however, that (1) any such Company Option with respect to which the exercise price per Share subject thereto is equal or greater than the Merger Consideration shall be cancelled in exchange for no consideration and (2) such Option Payments shall be reduced by the amount of any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.05. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Option shall be outstanding or exercisable, and each Company Option holder shall be entitled only to the payment provided for in this Section 2.03(a).

(b) Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company’s board of directors (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt all necessary resolutions to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with respect to Shares granted pursuant to a Company Stock Plan (each, an “RSU Award”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) shall be fully vested, (ii) any performance conditions applicable to such RSU Award shall be deemed satisfied in full and (iii) shall be cancelled by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such cancelled RSU Award shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such RSU Award and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (A) the number of RSUs subject to such RSU Award, multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration, without interest (less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.05).

(c) Termination of Company Stock Plans. As of the Effective Time, all Company Stock Plans shall terminate, and, except as provided in this Section 2.03, no further rights with respect to Shares, Company Options, RSUs or RSU Awards shall be granted or remain outstanding or in effect thereunder, and the Company shall have taken all actions necessary to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver Shares or other capital stock of the Company to any person pursuant to or in settlement of awards under the Company Stock Plans.

(d) Treatment of Company Stock Purchase Plan. The Company and the Company’s board of directors (or appropriate committee thereof) shall take all necessary actions, including adopting all necessary resolutions or amendments, to provide that (i) no Shares may be purchased under the Company Stock Purchase Plan with respect to offering periods beginning on or after the date of this Agreement, (ii) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company Stock Purchase Plan shall terminate, (iii) if the Effective Time occurs prior to the last day of the offering period in effect as of the date of this Agreement, such offering period shall end not later than the trading day that is seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, at which time the cash amounts accumulated in each account under the Company Stock Purchase Plan shall be used to purchase Shares, and (iv) participants in the Company Stock Purchase Plan shall be prohibited from increasing their payroll deductions from those in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(e) Payment with respect to Company Options and RSUs. The Surviving Corporation shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, through the Payroll Agent the payments required under Section 2.03(a) and Section 2.03(b) hereof (in each case, subject to Section 2.05), as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, or at such later time as necessary to avoid a violation and/or adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code.

Section 2.04 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any issued and outstanding Shares held by a person (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) who has not voted in favor of or consented to the adoption of this Agreement and has properly demanded appraisal of such Shares and complied in all respects with all the provisions of the DGCL concerning the right of holders of Shares to require appraisal of their Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as described in Section 2.01(a)(i), but shall be converted into the right to receive fair value of such Share as

determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL. If such Dissenting Stockholder withdraws its demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses or waives its right of appraisal, in any case pursuant to the DGCL, its Shares shall be deemed to be converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each such Share, without interest and subject to Section 2.05. The Company shall give Parent prompt written notice of any demands or written threats for appraisal of Shares received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands or threats and any other documents received by the Company in respect thereof (including instruments served on the Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL), and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands, threats or documents. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands or threats or agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.

Section 2.05 Withholding Taxes. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Payroll Agent and the Paying Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable in respect of the Shares, Company Options and RSU Awards cancelled in the Merger such Tax amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, any regulation promulgated thereunder by the United States Department of Treasury (a “Treasury Regulation”) or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that Tax amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld Tax amounts (a) shall be remitted by the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Payroll Agent or the Paying Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares, Company Options or RSU Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

ARTICLE III

Except (a) as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents publicly filed at least one (1) day prior to the date of this Agreement and after January 1, 2015, other than disclosures in the “Risk Factors” or “Forward-Looking Statements” sections of such filings or similar forward-looking, predictive or cautionary statements contained therein (without giving effect to any amendment to any such documents filed on or after the date that is two (2) days prior to the date hereof) or (b) as disclosed in the separate disclosure letter which has been delivered by the Company to Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement, including the documents attached to such disclosure letter (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (it being agreed that disclosure of any item in any section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter shall also be deemed to be disclosed with respect to any other section or subsection in this Agreement to which the relevance of such item is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure), the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Sub as follows:

Section 3.01 Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries.

(a) The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has requisite corporate power

and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except where the failure to have such power and authority, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company has made available to Parent true and complete copies of (i) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Company Charter”), and (ii) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Company Bylaws”), each as in effect as of the date hereof. Each of the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws is in full force and effect, and the Company is not in violation of any of the provisions of such documents.

(c) Each Company Subsidiary is a corporation or other legal entity duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, except where the failure to be so incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each Company Subsidiary has requisite corporate or other legal entity, as the case may be, power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except where the failure to have such power and authority, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each Company Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Section 3.01 of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth a true and complete list of all Company Subsidiaries, including each Company Subsidiary that, as of the date hereof, is a significant subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of the Company (each a “Significant Subsidiary”), together with its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and the percentage of capital stock or other equity interest held by any person other than the Company or another Company Subsidiary.

Section 3.02 Capitalization.

Section 4.07 Financing.

(a) Parent has delivered to the Company true and complete copies of (i) the executed commitment letter, dated as of the date hereof (the “Equity Commitment Letter”), among the Parent, Sub and each other party thereto (the “Equity Financing Sources”), pursuant to which the applicable Equity Financing Source has committed, subject only to the terms thereof, to invest the amounts set forth therein on the date on which the Closing should occur pursuant to Section 1.02 and to which the Company is an express third party beneficiary in accordance with the terms thereof and subject to the conditions set forth therein (the “Equity Financing”), and (ii) the executed commitment letter (together with the term sheet and any other annexes, exhibits, schedules and other attachments thereto), dated as of the date hereof (the “Debt Commitment Letter” and, together with the Equity Commitment Letter, the “Financing Commitments”) from Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Bank of America, N.A. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, Royal Bank of Canada RBC Capital Markets, UBS AG, Stamford Branch and UBS Securities LLC, pursuant to which certain of the Debt Financing Sources (the Debt Financing Sources, together with the Equity Financing Sources, the “Financing Sources”) have committed, subject only to the terms thereof, to lend the amounts set forth therein for purposes of funding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the date on which the Closing should occur pursuant to Section 1.02 (the “Debt Financing” and, together with the Equity Financing, the “Financing”). Parent has also delivered to the Company true and complete copies of any fee letter (with only the fee amounts, pricing caps and certain other economic terms (none of which individually or in the aggregate would reduce the amount of the Debt Financing or adversely affect the availability or conditionality of the Debt Financing or delay or prevent the Closing or make the funding of the Debt Financing less likely to occur) redacted) relating to the Debt Commitment Letter (any such fee letter, a “Fee Letter”) and any engagement letters or other agreements relating to the Debt Financing.

(b) Assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Financing Commitments and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.01 and Section 6.02 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), the aggregate net proceeds from the Financing when funded in accordance with the Financing Commitments (together with the available cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of Parent and Parent’s Subsidiaries and the purchase price received by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries pursuant to the Bank Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date) are sufficient to fund all of the amounts required to be provided by Parent or Sub for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and are sufficient for the satisfaction when due of all of the obligations of Parent and Sub under this Agreement (including the payment of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, the payment of all costs and expenses of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any obligations of the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries) which become due or payable by the Surviving Corporation or any Company Subsidiary in connection with, or as a result of, the Merger and any repayment or refinancing of Indebtedness required in connection therewith or contemplated by any of the Financing Commitments) on the Closing Date (collectively, the “Financing Uses”).

(c) As of the date hereof, all of the Financing Commitments are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded or otherwise amended,

supplemented or modified in any respect. Each of the Financing Commitments, in the form delivered to the Company, is, as of the date hereof, a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent and, to the knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, enforceable against Parent and, to the knowledge of Parent, such other parties in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. As of the date hereof, there are no side letters or other Contracts or arrangements (except for any Fee Letters, engagement letters with respect to the Debt Financing and any other agreements, each of which have been delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.07(a)) relating to the Financing Commitments. As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent under any term, or a failure by Parent or, to the knowledge of Parent, any other party thereto to satisfy any condition, of the Financing Commitments. Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.01 and Section 6.02 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), neither Parent nor Sub has reason to believe that it, any Equity Financing Source or any Debt Financing Source would be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of the Financing Commitments required to be satisfied by it. Parent and Sub have fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Financing Commitments to be paid on or before the date of this Agreement. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies between Parent or Sub, on the one hand, and any Financing Source, on the other hand, related to the funding or investing, as applicable, of the full amount of the Financing, other than as expressly set forth in the Financing Commitments.

Section 4.08 Solvency. Assuming that (a) the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) are Solvent as of the date hereof, (b) the Company has performed and complied with its covenants and agreements set forth herein, (c) the conditions to the obligation of Parent and Sub to consummate the Merger have been satisfied or waived and (d) the most recent financial statements included in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at the end of the periods covered thereby and the consolidated results of operations of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby, then at and immediately following the Effective Time and after giving effect to all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the funding of the Financing and the Financing Uses, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and each Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation, will be Solvent. Parent and Sub are not entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Parent, Sub, the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any affiliates thereof.

Section 4.09 Brokers. No broker, finder or investment banker other than J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent, Sub or any of their respective affiliates.

Section 4.10 Absence of Certain Arrangements. Other than this Agreement, the Voting Agreements and as set forth on Section 4.10 of the Parent Disclosure Letter, as of the date hereof, there are no Contracts or any commitments to enter into any Contract between Parent, Sub or any of their respective controlled affiliates, on the one hand, and any director, officer,

employee or stockholder of the Company, on the other hand, (a) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the operations of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time or (b) pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company would be entitled to receive consideration of a different amount or nature than the Merger Consideration or pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company agrees to vote to adopt this Agreement or approve the Merger or agrees to vote against any Competing Proposal.

Section 4.11 Acknowledgement of No Other Representations or Warranties. Each of Parent and Sub acknowledges that it has conducted its own independent investigation and analysis of the business, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) and prospects of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and that it and its representatives have received access to such books and records, facilities, equipment, Contracts and other assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that it and its representatives have desired or requested to review for such purpose and that it and its representatives have had full opportunity to meet with the management of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and to discuss the business, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) and prospects of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries. Each of Parent and Sub acknowledges and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties contained in Article III, none of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective affiliates or the Company Representatives makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 4.12 Bank Purchase Agreement. Parent acknowledges that it has been delivered a copy of the Bank Purchase Agreement. To the knowledge of Parent, as of the date hereof, except as previously disclosed to the Company, there are no “side letters” or other Contracts or arrangements to which Parent or any of its affiliates or any of the Financing Sources is a party relating to the obligations of any party under the purchase and sale agreement described in clause (a) of the definition of Bank Purchase Agreement or that would impose any conditions precedent or other contingencies to the consummation of the Banking Business Transaction.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if, at any time following the execution and delivery hereof by the Company and prior to the Company obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, (i) the Company has received a written Competing Proposal (it being agreed that the Company and the Company’s board of directors may correspond in writing with (or ask questions of) any person making such a written Competing Proposal and its representatives solely to request clarification of the terms and conditions thereof so as to determine whether such Competing Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal; provided, that the Company complies with its notice obligations to Parent with respect to such Competing Proposal (including notice of such further correspondence or discussions) in accordance with the immediately subsequent sentence) from a person that did not result from a breach of Section 5.03(a), which Competing Proposal was made on or after the date hereof and (ii) the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that failure to take the actions described in the subsequent clauses (A) or (B) would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law, then the Company may (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the person making such Competing Proposal and its representatives and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the person making such Competing Proposal and its representatives regarding such Competing Proposal; provided, however, that the Company will not, and will cause the Company Subsidiaries and will use reasonable best efforts to cause the Company Representatives not to, disclose any non-public information regarding the Company to such person without the Company first entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such person. The Company will promptly (and in any event within 36 hours) advise Parent of the receipt of any Competing Proposal, which notice will include, unless the Company is prohibited from doing so pursuant to a Contract in effect as of the date hereof (provided, if such a prohibition exists, the Company shall advise Parent of the subject matter of any such information that cannot be disclosed and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate alternate disclosure arrangements, including adopting additional specific procedures to protect the confidentiality of sensitive material and to ensure compliance with applicable Laws), the identity of the person or persons making such Competing Proposal, an unredacted copy of such Competing Proposal if made in writing (or a written summary of the material terms of such Competing Proposal if not made in writing), any relevant proposed transaction agreements, a copy of any financing commitments (including redacted fee letters), and, substantially concurrently with the delivery thereof to the person (or its representatives) making the Competing Proposal, any information concerning the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their businesses, assets or properties provided or made available to such other person (or its representatives) by the Company after receipt by the Company of the Competing Proposal that was not previously provided or made available to Parent (such information and documentation, the “Competing Proposal Information”). Following the date hereof, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt basis of any material change in the terms and conditions of any such Competing Proposal, and none of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall enter into any Contract that would prohibit them from providing the Competing Proposal Information to Parent or its representatives.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 5.03(d) or Section 5.03(e), neither the Company’s board of directors nor any committee thereof shall, (i) adopt, authorize or approve or recommend any Competing Proposal (or publicly propose to recommend any Competing Proposal), (ii) withhold, withdraw, modify, qualify or amend, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation (or publicly propose to take any of the foregoing actions), (iii) if a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of capital stock of the Company that constitutes a Competing Proposal is commenced, fail to recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by the stockholders of the Company (including for these purposes, by taking no position with respect to the acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by the stockholders of the Company, which shall constitute a failure to recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer) within ten Business Days after commencement thereof pursuant to Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, a statement that the Company’s board of directors recommends against acceptance of such tender or exchange offer but, in accordance with Section 5.03, is engaging in discussions or negotiations with the person making such tender or exchange offer, shall not be deemed to be a Change of Company Recommendation) (any action set forth in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Change of Company Recommendation”), (iv) allow or authorize the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement, arrangement or understanding to effect any Competing Proposal with the person that made such Competing Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) or requiring the Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (v) make the provisions of any antitakeover or similar statute or regulation inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Competing Proposal, (vi) terminate, amend, release, modify or knowingly fail to use reasonable best efforts to enforce any provision of, or grant any permission, waiver or request under, any standstill agreement entered into by the Company or any Company Subsidiary in respect of or in contemplation of a Competing Proposal (provided, that, to the extent the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith after consultation with its legal counsel that failure to provide a limited waiver to any such standstill agreement solely to permit the counterparty thereto privately to approach the Company’s board of directors regarding a Competing Proposal would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law, the Company may provide such limited waiver) or (vii) publicly propose to do any of the foregoing.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) may make a Change of Company Recommendation (and, if so desired by the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof), terminate this Agreement in order to cause the Company to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Competing Proposal) if and only if:

(i) (A) a written Competing Proposal (that did not result from a breach of Section 5.03(a)) is made to the Company by a third person and (B) the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law;

(ii) the Company provides Parent prior written notice of the Company’s intention to make a Change of Company Recommendation or to terminate this Agreement in order to cause the Company to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Competing Proposal at least five (5) days prior to making such Change of Company Recommendation or terminating this Agreement (such time period, the “Match Period” and such notice, a “Notice of Change of Recommendation”), which notice shall identify the person making such Superior Proposal and include an unredacted draft of the definitive agreement to effect such Superior Proposal and any financing documents (which may be redacted in a customary manner) relating thereto (it being agreed that neither (x) the delivery of the Notice of Change of Recommendation by the Company nor (y) the public announcement that the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) has received a Competing Proposal, is evaluating such Competing Proposal and has delivered such notice shall constitute a Change of Company Recommendation unless and until the Company shall have failed within 24 hours after the end of the Match Period (after giving effect to the proviso in Section 5.03(d)(iv)) to publicly announce that it (A) is recommending the Merger and (B) has determined that such Competing Proposal (taking into account (x) any modifications or adjustments made to this Agreement agreed to by the Parent in writing and (y) any modifications or adjustments made to such Competing Proposal) is not a Superior Proposal and has publicly rejected such Competing Proposal);

(iii) if requested by Parent, the Company has negotiated in good faith, and directed any applicable Company Representatives to negotiate in good faith, with Parent for at least five (5) days following receipt by Parent of such Notice of Change of Recommendation with respect to any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in a written offer; and

(iv) taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement agreed to by Parent in a written offer to the Company pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Competing Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such changes agreed to in writing by Parent were to be given effect; provided, that any amendment to the amount or form of consideration contemplated by such Competing Proposal or any other material amendment to the terms of such Competing Proposal (whether or not in response to any changes proposed by Parent pursuant to clause (iii) above) shall require a new Notice of Change of Recommendation and an additional three (3)-day period from the date of such notice during which the terms of clauses (ii) and (iii) above and this clause (iv) shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(e) Other than in connection with a Competing Proposal (which shall be subject to Section 5.03(d) and shall not be subject to this Section 5.03(e)), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) from withholding, modifying or amending, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation if there is an Intervening Event, as a result of which, the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure of the Company’s board

of directors (or any committee thereof) to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, that:

(i) the Company shall give Parent at least five (5) days advance written notice of its intention to take such action (such time period, the “Intervening Event Period” and such notice, an “Intervening Event Notice”), which notice shall include a reasonably detailed summary of the relevant Intervening Event (it being agreed that neither the delivery of the Intervening Event Notice nor the public announcement that the Company has delivered an Intervening Event Notice shall constitute a Change of Company Recommendation unless and until the Company shall have failed within 24 hours after the end of the Intervening Event Period to publicly announce that it is recommending the Merger);

(ii) the Company shall give Parent at least five (5) days following receipt by Parent of such notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement (or make another proposal) and shall, and shall have directed the applicable Company Representatives to, negotiate in good faith with Parent with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal, if any, during such five (5)-day period; and

(iii) following the end of such five (5)-day period, the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement offered by Parent in a written offer to the Company pursuant to clause (ii) above and in consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure of the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) to effect a Change of Company Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) from (i) disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company if the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company’s board of directors to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law (for the avoidance of doubt, it being agreed that the issuance by the Company or the Company’s board of directors (or any committee thereof) of a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position, as contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, shall not constitute a Change of Company Recommendation); provided, however, that any disclosure under the foregoing clause (i) shall be deemed a Change of Company Recommendation unless it includes either an express rejection of any applicable Competing Proposal or an express reaffirmation of the Company Recommendation; provided, further, however, that the board of directors of the Company may not make a Change of Company Recommendation unless permitted to do so by Section 5.03(d) or Section 5.03(e).

(g) If any Competing Proposal is made as a result of any action by a Company Representative that would constitute a breach of this Section 5.03 had the Company taken such action, such Competing Proposal shall, solely for purposes of Section 5.03(b), Section 5.03(c), Section 5.03(d), Section 7.01(e) and the definition of “Superior Proposal”, be deemed to have resulted from a breach of this Section 5.03.

Section 5.04 Proxy Statement; Stockholder Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file a preliminary Proxy Statement with the SEC. Subject to Section 5.03, the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Recommendation. Parent shall cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement, and shall furnish all information concerning it, Sub, the Equity Financing Sources and any of their respective affiliates that is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement. The parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to have the Proxy Statement cleared by the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing. Prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement or any related documents (or in each case, any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent with an opportunity to review and comment on such document or written response and shall consider in good faith any comments on such document or response reasonably proposed by Parent. The Company shall notify Parent promptly of the receipt of any comments (written or oral) to the Proxy Statement from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and will supply Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, no amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement to modify any information solely relating to Parent, Sub, the Equity Financing Sources and any of their respective affiliates shall be made without the prior written approval of Parent unless required by applicable Law (and then only after Parent has been provided an opportunity to review and comment on such amendment or supplement and the Company has considered in good faith any comments on such amendment or supplement reasonably proposed by Parent).

(b) If, at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting, any information relating to the Company or Parent, Sub, the Equity Financing Sources or any of their respective affiliates is discovered by the Company or Parent that 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 required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall as promptly as practicable notify the other party. Following such notification, the Company shall file with the SEC an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information as promptly as reasonably practicable after Parent has had a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and, to the extent the Company determines it is required by applicable Law, the Company shall disseminate such amendment or supplement to the stockholders of the Company.

(c) The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Proxy Statement is cleared by the SEC for mailing to the Company’s stockholders in accordance with Section 5.04(a) (and in any event no more than forty-five (45) days after such clearance), duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of voting on (i) the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger, (ii) a non-binding advisory proposal to approve change-in-control payments to executives of the Company, and (iii) a proposal to adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes to adopt the Agreement. Except as required by applicable Law, the Company shall not submit any other proposal to its stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent. The record date and meeting date of the Company Stockholder Meeting shall be selected by the Company after reasonable consultation with Parent. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, in its reasonable discretion, adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting after consultation with Parent only (A) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement that the Company has determined in good faith after consultation with its legal counsel is required under applicable Law is provided to the stockholders of the Company within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholder Meeting, (B) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) or is scheduled to reconvene following an adjournment thereof, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholder Meeting or to the extent that at such time the Company has not received proxies sufficient to allow the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholder Meeting or (C) the Company determines the failure to do so would be inconsistent with applicable Law; provided, however, that unless and only for so long as the Company is in a Match Period, the Company Stockholder Meeting shall not be adjourned for more than twenty (20) Business Days in the aggregate from the originally scheduled date of the Company Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, advise Parent on a daily basis on each of the last seven (7) days prior to the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting (and any reconvening thereof) as to the aggregate tally of proxies received by the Company with respect to the Company Stockholder Approval and whether such proxies have been voted affirmatively or negatively with respect to each of the proposals to be presented at the Company Stockholder Meeting. Subject to Section 5.03, the Company’s board of directors shall recommend that the Company’s stockholders adopt this Agreement (the “Company Recommendation”), and the Company shall, unless there has been a Change of Company Recommendation permitted by this Agreement, or this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be permitted to call and hold its 2016 annual meeting of stockholders so long as the matters to be voted upon at such meeting do not include the consideration of any Competing Proposal and would not otherwise constitute a breach of Section 5.03.

Section 5.05 Access to Information. From the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, the Company shall, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary to: (a) provide to Parent

and Sub and their respective representatives, and to the Debt Financing Sources, reasonable access during normal business hours in such a manner as not to interfere with the operation of any business conducted by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, upon prior written notice to the Company, to the officers, employees, properties, offices and other facilities of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and to the books and records thereof; and (b) furnish promptly such information concerning the business, properties, Contracts, assets and liabilities of the Company and Company Subsidiaries as Parent or its representatives may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (or to cause any Company Subsidiary to) afford such access or furnish such information to the extent that the Company believes in good faith that doing so would: (i) result in the loss of attorney-client privilege (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege); (ii) violate any confidentiality obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to any third person or otherwise breach, contravene or violate any then effective Contract to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is party; (iii) result in a competitor of the Company or any Company Subsidiary receiving information that is competitively sensitive; or (iv) breach, contravene or violate any applicable Law (including the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law); provided, further, if any of the restrictions in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) shall apply, the Company shall advise Parent of the subject matter of any such information that cannot be disclosed and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate alternate disclosure arrangements, including adopting additional specific procedures to protect the confidentiality of sensitive material and to ensure compliance with applicable Laws. Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective representatives, to hold all information provided or furnished pursuant to this Section 5.05 confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. During any visit to the business or property sites of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, each of Parent and Sub shall, and shall cause their respective representatives accessing such properties to, comply in all material respects with all applicable Laws and all of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ safety and security procedures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.05, from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, none of Parent, Sub or any of their respective affiliates shall conduct, without the prior written consent of the Company, any environmental investigation at any real property owned or leased by the Company, including any sampling or other intrusive investigation of air, surface water, groundwater or soil at or in connection with any of such real property. The Confidentiality Agreement is hereby amended to include in the definition of “Representatives” contained therein all existing or prospective equity investors, co-investors and debt financing sources of Parent and its affiliates and their respective agents, advisors and representatives; provided that, in connection with the syndication of the Debt Financing, the disclosure of any information to any of the foregoing shall be made subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such recipient that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis in accordance with standard syndication processes or customary market standards for dissemination of such types of information, which shall in any event require “click through” or other affirmative actions on the part of the recipient to access such information. Parent and the Debt Financing Sources shall be permitted to share with the rating agencies confidential information of the Company of the type customarily shared with rating agencies, subject to customary confidentiality procedures.

Section 5.06 Reasonable Best Efforts; Cooperation; Regulatory Filings.

(a) Subject to Section 5.03, (1) each of Parent and the Company shall (and shall cause each of its affiliates to) use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to cause the conditions set forth in Article VI to be satisfied, (2) the Company shall (and shall cause each of its affiliates to) use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement and the conditions set forth in the Bank Purchase Agreement to be satisfied (and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to assist the Company in connection therewith). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall (and shall cause Sub and each of its affiliates to) and the Company shall (and shall cause each of the Company Subsidiaries to) use its reasonable best efforts to (i) promptly obtain all actions or nonactions, consents (including Required Consents), Permits (including Environmental Permits), waivers, approvals, authorizations and orders from Governmental Entities or other persons necessary or advisable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) as promptly as practicable, and in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, make and not withdraw (without the other party’s consent) all registrations and filings with any Governmental Entity or other persons necessary or advisable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the filings required of the parties hereto or their “ultimate parent entities” or “ultimate controlling persons” under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law and any Banking Laws, and promptly make any further filings pursuant thereto that may be necessary or advisable, (iii) other than with respect to any proceeding under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law (which is addressed by Section 5.06(c)), or under any Banking Law or by or before any Banking Regulator (which is addressed by Section 5.06(b)), (A) defend all lawsuits or other legal, regulatory, administrative or other proceedings to which it or any of its affiliates is a party challenging or affecting this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case until the issuance of a final, non-appealable order with respect to each such lawsuit or proceeding, (B) seek to have lifted or rescinded any injunction or restraining order which may adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case until the issuance of a final, non-appealable order with respect thereto and (C) seek to resolve any objection or assertion by any Governmental Entity challenging this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (iv) execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Neither Parent nor Sub, directly or indirectly, through one or more of their respective affiliates, shall take any action, including acquiring or making any investment in any person or any division or assets thereof, that would reasonably be expected to cause a material delay in the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Article VI or the consummation of the Merger.

(b) Subject to Sections 5.06(d) and 5.06(e), the Company shall (and shall cause each of its affiliates to) promptly make all filings required by the Banking Regulators or Banking Laws in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or the Bank Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. In furtherance of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.06(b) and notwithstanding any limitations herein or elsewhere in this Agreement, (i) Parent and the Company shall, in consultation with the other and otherwise subject to Parent’s consent right under this Section 5.06(b), use reasonable best efforts to (and to cause each of its affiliates to) avoid or eliminate each and every impediment to the consummation of the Banking Business Transaction and (ii) the Company shall, in consultation with Parent and otherwise subject to Parent’s consent right under this Section 5.06(b),

use reasonable best efforts to (and to cause each of its affiliates to) obtain all approvals and consents under any Banking Laws that may be required by any foreign or U.S. federal, state or local Governmental Entity, in each case with competent jurisdiction, so as to enable the parties to consummate the Banking Business Transaction as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that (x) the Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its affiliates to), without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any undertaking or commitment pursuant to this Section 5.06(b) or otherwise in connection with obtaining any required approvals or consents under any Banking Laws for the Banking Business Transaction, if, in each case, the taking of such action would result in Parent, Sub, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective affiliates incurring any continuing liability or obligation after the Closing that would be material to the Parent and its affiliates, taken as a whole, following completion of the Merger, and (y) the Company shall not be required to make any undertaking, commitment or concession that is not conditioned upon the Closing occurring.

(c) Without limiting the generality of Parent and the Company’s undertaking pursuant to Section 5.06(a), and notwithstanding any limitations therein or elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause each of its respective affiliates to, use its and their reasonable best efforts to take as promptly as possible any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any antitrust or competition Governmental Entity or any other person so as to enable the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated as promptly as possible, including with respect to (but not limited to) complying with or modifying any requests for additional information by any Governmental Entity as soon as possible (including prior to issuance of a “second request”) and using reasonable best efforts to prepare presentations and materials for submission to any such Governmental Entity (including prior to issuance of a “second request”). In addition, Parent shall, and shall cause its affiliates to, prior to the Outside Date, defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any person in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any order that would prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including contesting, defending, resisting or appealing any action or other proceeding until a final, non-appealable order is entered unless this Agreement has been earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. If the parties receive a “second request”, each of the parties shall use reasonable best efforts to certify compliance with such “second request” as promptly as practicable (and in any event within three months after receipt thereof) and to produce documents on a rolling basis, and counsel for both parties will closely cooperate during the entirety of any such “second request” review process. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Parent nor any of its affiliates shall be obligated to consent to any divestiture or other structural or conduct relief in order to obtain clearance from any Governmental Entity. Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.06, each party hereto shall: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or legal proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) keep the other parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or legal proceeding; and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from any Banking Regulator, the FTC, the Antitrust Division or any other Governmental Entity regarding the Merger or the Banking Business Transaction, as applicable. Each party hereto will consult and cooperate with the other parties and will consider

in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any filing, analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and Banking Business Transaction. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or legal proceeding, each party hereto will permit authorized representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation, action or legal proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation, action or legal proceeding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.06, no party hereto shall be in violation of this Agreement by virtue of providing information that is competitively sensitive to one another on an “outside counsel only” or other basis designed to ensure compliance with applicable Law (including the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law).

(d) The Company (i) shall use reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with all of its covenants and agreements set forth in the Bank Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof (including any covenants and agreements related to obtaining (or providing the other parties with assistance and cooperation in its efforts to obtain) any consents or approvals required in order to consummate the Banking Business Transaction), and (ii) shall not (and shall cause each of the Company Subsidiaries not to) agree to any amendments or modifications to, or grant or obtain any waivers or consents of, any condition or other provision under the Bank Purchase Agreement that would adversely affect Parent in any material respect, in each case, without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In furtherance of the obligations set forth in Section 5.06(a), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to consummate the Banking Business Transaction on the terms and conditions described in the Bank Purchase Agreement including (A) using its reasonable best efforts to satisfy on a timely basis all conditions precedent to the Banking Business Transaction as set forth in the Bank Purchase Agreement and (B) at the request of Parent, fully enforcing its rights (and the counterparty’s obligations) under the Bank Purchase Agreement. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, keep Parent informed on a reasonably prompt basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to consummate the Banking Business Transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall (1) furnish Parent with any proposed draft amendments to the Bank Purchase Agreement and complete, correct and executed copies of any amendments to the Bank Purchase Agreement promptly upon execution thereof and (2) give Parent prompt written notice (w) of any default or material breach (or any event that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would (or would reasonably be expected to) give rise to any default or material breach) by any party under the Bank Purchase Agreement of which the Company becomes aware, (x) of any termination of the Bank Purchase Agreement, (y) of the receipt of any written notice or other communication from any person with respect to any (1) default, material breach, termination or repudiation of the Bank Purchase Agreement by any party thereto, or (2) receipt of any regulatory approvals required under Banking Laws to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement, and (z) if for any reason the Company believes in good faith that it will not be able to consummate the Banking Business Transaction on the terms or in the manner contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any actual or potential failure or delay in obtaining any

required regulatory approvals, or otherwise in satisfying any other conditions necessary, in each case, to consummate the Banking Business Transaction on the terms set forth in the Bank Purchase Agreement. Promptly following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement, the Company shall (and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to) take all actions reasonably necessary to (i) surrender any Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and (ii) receive confirmation of such surrender from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

(e) In addition to its other obligations under this Section 5.06, prior to the Closing, Parent shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its affiliates and the Equity Financing Sources to, provide to the Company all reasonable cooperation requested by the Company with respect to the (i) the Company’s performance of its obligations under the Bank Purchase Agreement, (ii) the establishment of the Program (as defined in the Bank Purchase Agreement) and (iii) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall not and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its affiliates not to enter into any agreements with any party to the Bank Purchase Agreement or any of such person’s affiliates relating to this Agreement, the Bank Purchase Agreement or any of the transactions or matters contemplated hereby or thereby without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that no prior written consent of the Company is required for Parent to enter into any such agreement to the extent that such agreement do not take effect until after the Closing Date or otherwise only relates to matters that arise from and after the Closing Date. Parent shall permit the Company to be reasonably involved in meetings and substantive scheduled discussions with the counterparty to the Bank Purchase Agreement or any of its affiliates relating to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Bank Purchase Agreement or any party’s obligations prior to Closing under this Agreement or the Bank Purchase Agreement, provided, that Parent shall not be required to include the Company in any portions of such meetings or discussions during which competitively sensitive information of Parent or any of its affiliates is being discussed.

(f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and without limiting in any respect Parent’s obligations to use reasonable best efforts to consummate the Banking Business Transaction pursuant to this Section 5.06, in the event the Bank Purchase Agreement is terminated, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange for the Company an alternative transaction for the sale of the Banking Business (an “Alternative Banking Business Transaction”), in the most expeditious manner practicable (and, in any event, prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days before the Outside Date), pursuant to a transaction with another third party and on terms reasonably acceptable to the Company and pursuant to a replacement Bank Purchase Agreement (such alternative transaction arranged by Parent for the Company or any alternative transaction arranged by the Company, the “Alternative Bank Purchase Agreement”); provided that the Company shall not, without Parent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), enter into any Alternative Banking Business Transaction on terms or conditions (i) that are materially less favorable to the Company (or from and after the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation) than the Banking Business Transaction contemplated by the Bank Purchase Agreement delivered to Parent as of the date hereof (including with

respect to (A) the Tax treatment of such transaction, (B) the retained liabilities of the Company from and after the consummation of any such transaction and (C) the credit card program agreement with the bank purchaser party to the Bank Purchase Agreement) or (ii) that would reasonably be expected to materially impair the timely satisfaction of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, permit Parent and its representatives to be involved in discussions, negotiations, communications or other actions regarding such Alternative Banking Business Transaction and related credit card program agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall furnish Parent complete copies of all material drafts of any Alternative Bank Purchase Agreement and related credit card program agreement in connection with the negotiations thereof (in addition to the executed copy of such Alternative Bank Purchase Agreement and related credit card program agreement promptly upon the execution thereof) and shall keep Parent reasonably and promptly informed as to the status and material terms of any negotiations in connection therewith. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver the Alternative Bank Purchase Agreement (subject to Parent’s consent rights under this Section 5.06(f)).

(g) Nothing in this Section 5.06 shall be deemed to prohibit or limit the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ ability to take the actions contemplated by Section 5.03.

Section 5.07 Financing.

(a) Parent and Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts and do all things necessary or advisable to obtain the Financing as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event, not later than the date the Closing is required to be effected in accordance with Section 1.02, on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent applicable, the “flex” provisions) described in the Financing Commitments (for purposes of this Section 5.07, the Financing Commitments and the Debt Commitment Letter shall include any Fee Letter), including using reasonable best efforts to (i) enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions (as such terms may be modified or adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter, and within the limits of the “flex” provisions contained in any Fee Letter) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or on such other terms acceptable to Parent and the applicable Debt Financing Sources so long as such other terms would not (x) delay or prevent the Closing, (y) adversely impact or delay in any respect the likelihood of the funding of the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining any of the Financing) or (z) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Equity Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements (in each case, in accordance with their terms) or the ability of Parent or Sub to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Definitive Debt Financing Agreements”), (ii) satisfy on a timely basis all terms, conditions and covenants, including with respect to the payment of any commitment, engagement or placement fees, applicable to Parent or Sub in the Financing Commitments and the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements that are in Parent’s and Sub’s control to satisfy, (iii) consummate (and cause the Financing Sources to consummate) the Financing at or prior to Closing and (iv) enforce their rights under the Financing Commitments and the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements. Prior to the Closing, Parent and Sub shall not agree to any amendments or modifications to, or grant any waivers of, any condition or other provision under the Financing Commitments or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements without the prior written consent of the Company (which

consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, without the Company’s consent, Parent and Sub may (1) agree to any amendments, restatements, modifications or waivers to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements if such amendment, restatement, modification or waiver would not (and would not be reasonably expected to) (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing or Equity Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing or similar fee) unless, in the case of any reduction in the amount of the Debt Financing, the Equity Financing is increased by a corresponding amount (and vice versa), (B) impose new or additional conditions, or otherwise expand or adversely amend any conditions, to the receipt of the Debt Financing or Equity Financing, (C) delay or prevent the Closing, (D) adversely impact the likelihood of the funding of the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining any of the Financing) or (E) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Equity Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements or the ability of Parent or Sub to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (E), collectively, the “Prohibited Financing Amendments”); and (2) amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements to add lenders, lead arrangers, book runners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement (but not make any other changes), but only if the addition of such additional parties, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in the occurrence of a Prohibited Financing Amendment. Parent and Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts to maintain in effect the Financing Commitments (including any Definitive Debt Financing Agreements) until the Closing occurs (provided, that the foregoing shall not limit Parent’s or Sub’s right to amend, restate, modify or waive the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence). Prior to Closing, neither Parent nor Sub shall release or consent to the termination of the obligations of the Debt Financing Sources under the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements without the prior written consent of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent shall have the right to (i) reduce the commitments under the Debt Commitment Letter by an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of net cash proceeds from consummated offerings or other incurrences of debt (including notes) of Parent and/or its Subsidiaries consummated after the date hereof for which such proceeds have been received by Parent and/or its Subsidiaries after the date hereof and are not subject to any conditions or contingencies to financing (including conditions to any escrow agreement) that are not contained in, or are more expansive or less favorable to Parent than those contained in, the Debt Commitment Letter and (ii) substitute such proceeds for the amount by which the commitments under the Commitment Letter are reduced; provided that: (A) an amount in cash or cash equivalents equal to such substituted proceeds is retained by Parent and/or its Subsidiaries and such amount has been identified by Parent for the purpose of funding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and there are no conditions or restrictions on Parent’s ability to use such amount to fund the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any restriction as to which a Subsidiary of Parent is subject, to the extent such restriction prohibits such Subsidiary from transferring, directly or indirectly, such amount to Parent); (B) such substituted proceeds shall be in an amount sufficient, together with the Equity Financing and any remaining Debt Financing, to consummate the transactions contemplated

hereby; and (C) to the extent any of such proceeds are from consummated offerings or other incurrences of debt (including notes) that have scheduled redemptions or mandatory redemptions or put rights (other than customary change of control redemption or put rights), such scheduled redemption is not scheduled to occur prior to, and such right is not exercisable prior to, a date that is earlier than the Outside Date. Further, Parent shall have the right to substitute commitments in respect of other financing for all or any portion of the Debt Financing from the same and/or alternative bona fide third party financing sources reasonably acceptable to the Company (which will be in an amount sufficient to fund, when taken together with the Equity Financing and the other resources of Parent and other financing arrangements, the Financing Uses), so long as (1) all conditions precedent and contingencies to funding of such financing are in the aggregate, in respect of certainty of funding, equivalent to (or more favorable to Parent than) the conditions precedent and contingencies set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, to replace the Debt Financing and (2) such substitution does not (x) delay or prevent the Closing, (y) adversely impact the likelihood of the funding of the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing or (z) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Equity Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements (in each case, in accordance with their terms) or the ability of Parent or Sub to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (“Alternative Financing”). If the Debt Commitment Letter (or any Definitive Debt Financing Agreement) expires or is terminated or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter, Parent and Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event but no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately preceding the Outside Date, arrange for and obtain debt financing from alternative sources so long as such alternative financing would constitute an Alternative Financing. The new debt commitment letter and fee letter entered into in connection with any Alternative Financing are referred to, respectively, as a “New Debt Commitment Letter” and a “New Fee Letter.” In the event Parent or Sub enter into any such New Debt Commitment Letter (or any amendment, restatement, supplement or modification of the Debt Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms of Section 5.07(a)), (a) Parent and Sub shall promptly provide the Company with true, correct and complete copies thereof, (b) any reference in this Agreement to the “Debt Financing” shall mean the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as so modified or by such New Debt Commitment Letter, as applicable, and (c) any reference in this Agreement to the “Debt Commitment Letter” (and any definition incorporating the term “Debt Commitment Letter,” including the definition of Definitive Debt Financing Agreements) shall be deemed to include the Debt Commitment Letter and any Fee Letter as so modified to the extent not superseded by a New Debt Commitment Letter or New Fee Letter, as the case may be, at the time in question and any New Debt Commitment Letter or New Fee Letter to the extent then in effect.

(c) Parent and Sub shall, and shall cause their representatives to, keep the Company informed as promptly as practicable in reasonable detail of the status of their efforts to arrange the Debt Financing and, subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions (which shall be no more restrictive than the Debt Commitment Letter delivered to the Company prior to the Closing Date), substantially concurrently with their execution provide copies of all definitive agreements entered into with respect to the Debt Financing to the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall (i) furnish the Company complete, correct and executed copies of any amendments to the Financing Commitments promptly upon their execution and (ii) give the

Company prompt written notice (A) of any default or breach (or any event that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would (or would reasonably be expected to) give rise to any default or breach) by any party under any of the Financing Commitments or the definitive agreements relating to the Financing of which Parent or Sub becomes aware, if such breach or default would reasonably be expected to affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Financing, (B) of any termination of either of the Financing Commitments, and (C) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any person with respect to any (1) actual or potential default, breach, termination or repudiation of any Financing Commitment, any definitive agreement relating to the Financing or any provision of the Financing Commitments or the definitive agreements relating to the Financing, in each case by any party thereto, or (2) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements relating to the Financing, in the case of each of clauses (1) and (2), that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Financing.

(d) Prior to the Closing, at Parent’s sole expense, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and instruct the Company Representatives to, in each case, use their commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Parent and Sub all customary cooperation reasonably requested by Parent that is necessary, proper or advisable in connection with the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing, including using commercially reasonable efforts (i) to cause management of the Company to participate in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, sessions with rating agencies and due diligence sessions, in each case, with appropriate seniority and expertise, (ii) to cooperate with marketing efforts for the Debt Financing, including (A) assisting the Debt Financing Sources in benefitting from the existing lending relationships of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, (B) providing reasonable and customary assistance with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda (including one or more confidential information memoranda) and other offering and marketing materials, (C) delivering customary authorization letters and confirmations (including with respect to presence or absence of material non-public information and accuracy of the information contained therein), (D) providing reasonable cooperation with the Debt Financing sources on their due diligence efforts and the consummation of the Debt Financing to the extent reasonable and customary and (E) updating information provided in writing by Parent describing the Company or the Company Subsidiaries prepared in accordance with normal customary practice in connection with the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter such that, after giving effect to such updates, such information, when taken as a whole, will be correct in all material respects and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (and, to the extent applicable, subject to the limitations contained in Section 5.05 hereof), (iii) to the extent reasonably requested by Parent and required under the Debt Commitment Letter, (A) obtaining documents reasonably requested by Parent or its Debt Financing Sources relating to the repayment of the existing indebtedness of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the release of related liens and other security interests, including customary payoff letters and termination documents and (B) within three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, providing all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act, relating to the Company or any of the Company

Subsidiaries, in each case as reasonably requested by Parent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, (iv) furnishing Parent and Sub and the Financing Sources with (A) historic financial information required by paragraph 4 of Exhibit D of the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof, (B) such historic financial information related to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as is reasonably required by Parent for Parent to produce the pro forma financial statements identified in paragraph 5 of Exhibit D of the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof and specified in writing by Parent to the Company and (C) such other customary financial data or other pertinent information regarding the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Parent in writing no later than 20 Business Days after the date hereof and that is reasonably necessary to consummate the Debt Financing (clauses (A), (B) and (C) together, the “Required Information”), provided that the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall have no obligation to prepare or provide any projections or information in connection with the potential purchase price accounting treatment of the Merger, provided that none of the following shall be considered the Required Information and the Company shall have no obligation to provide any such information: (1) any post-Closing or pro forma cost savings, capitalization and other post-Closing or (and the assumptions relating thereto) desired by the Parent to be reflected in such pro forma data, (2) any projections or any information in connection with the potential purchase price accounting treatment of the Merger, (3) in the case of clause (C) of the definition of Required Information, any other information concerning the assumptions underlying the post-Closing or pro forma adjustments to be made in such pro forma adjustments or (4) in the case of clause (C) of the definition of Required Information, any adjustments to any pro forma financial information required to be provided in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter, (v) cooperate to facilitate the pledging of, granting of security interests in and obtaining perfection of any liens on, collateral in connection with the Debt Financing and to deliver original stock certificates, if any, together with customary stock powers executed in blank, with respect to the Company and the material, wholly owned U.S. Company Subsidiaries that are required by the Debt Commitment Letter to be delivered in order to perfect the security interests of the lenders in such collateral and (vi) take all actions reasonably requested by Parent and necessary to permit the prospective lenders involved in the Debt Financing to evaluate the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ inventory, current assets and cash management systems for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements (including sufficient access to allow the Debt Financing Sources to complete field exams and conducting the commercial finance examination and inventory appraisals contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter within the time frame described therein) (and, to the extent applicable, subject to the limitations contained in Section 5.05 hereof); provided, however, that (1) nothing herein shall require such cooperation to the extent it would (A) interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or (B) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to take any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, the Company Charter or Company Bylaws or other comparable organizational documents of the Company Subsidiaries, any Applicable Laws or any Contract, (2) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to commit to take any action that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective at or prior to the Effective Time, (3) neither the Company’s board of directors nor any of the Company Subsidiaries’ boards of directors (or equivalent bodies) shall be required to approve or adopt any Financing or agreements related thereto (or any Alternative Financing), (4) neither the Company

nor any of the Company Subsidiaries shall be required to execute or deliver any agreements, certificates or instruments in connection with any Financing (or any Alternative Financing), provided that Parent shall be permitted to request that employees of the Company who have been significantly involved in the negotiation of the Debt Financing and will continue to be employees following Closing execute such agreements, certificates or instruments and (5) in no event shall the Company be in breach of this Agreement because of the failure of any financial or other information to be delivered that is not available to the Company at the time requested by Parent. The Company hereby consents to the use of its and the Company Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing so long as such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries. None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment (other than for reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses that are reimbursed by Parent as provided below in this Section 5.07(d)) or incur any other liability or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation. Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and the Company Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the Financing (including any action taken in accordance with this Section 5.07(d)) and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than historical information provided in writing by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or the Company Representatives specifically for use in connection therewith). Nothing contained in this Section 5.07(d) or otherwise shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, prior to the Closing, to be an issuer or other obligor with respect to the Debt Financing.

(e) Each of Parent and Sub acknowledges and agrees that neither the obtaining of the Financing or any alternative financing is a condition to the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the condition set forth in Section 6.02(b), as it applies to the Company’s obligations under this Section 5.07, shall be deemed satisfied unless the Financing has not been obtained primarily as a result of the Company’s or any Company Subsidiary’s willful and material breach of its obligations under this Section 5.07 with respect to the Financing.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations contained in this Section 5.07 shall terminate upon the occurrence of the Closing.

Section 5.08 Public Announcements. The initial press release issued by Parent and the Company concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be a joint press release, the contents of which have received prior approval from both such parties, and thereafter Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the other party’s prior written consent; provided, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.08 shall not apply to any press release, public statement or other announcement issued or made, or proposed to be issued or made, (a) by the Company in connection with a Competing Proposal or

Change of Company Recommendation or (b) as may be required by applicable Law, the fiduciary duties of the board of directors of the Company to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange, which, in the case of clause (b), the party making such release, statement or other announcement shall use reasonable best efforts to consult with the other party to the extent practicable and permissible under applicable Law.

Section 5.09 Directors & Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnification. From and after the Effective Time until the sixth (6th) anniversary thereof, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law and the Company’s or the applicable Company Subsidiary’s organizational documents, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each current or former director or officer of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and each fiduciary under benefit plans of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against (i) all losses, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines, claims, damages or liabilities or, subject to the proviso of the next succeeding sentence, amounts paid in settlement, arising out of actions or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time (and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time) to the extent that they are based on or arise out of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or fiduciary under benefit plans prior to the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), and (ii) all Indemnified Liabilities to the extent they are based on or arise out of or pertain to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, and including any expenses incurred in enforcing such person’s rights under this Section 5.09. In the event of any such loss, expense, claim, damage or liability (whether or not asserted before the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel selected by the Indemnified Parties promptly after statements therefor are received and otherwise advance to such Indemnified Party upon request, reimbursement of documented expenses reasonably incurred (provided that the person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advance if it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such person is not legally entitled to indemnification under Law).

(b) Insurance. The Company shall be permitted to, prior to the Effective Time, and if the Company fails to do so, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, obtain and fully pay the premium for a “tail” insurance and indemnification policy for a claims reporting period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time for events occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate to the intended beneficiaries thereof than the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy; provided, however, that neither the Company nor Parent shall purchase such a “tail” policy for a premium amount for any one year in excess of 300% of the annual premium paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year for such insurance (the “Tail Cap”). If the Company and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policy as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time (and for so long thereafter as any claims brought before the end of such six (6) year period thereunder are being adjudicated) the D&O Insurance

in place as of the date hereof with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six (6) year period (and for so long thereafter as any claims brought before the end of such six (6) year period thereunder are being adjudicated) with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof; provided, however, that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be required to pay an aggregate annual premium for such D&O Insurance to the extent exceeding 300% of the annual premium paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year for such insurance and if the premiums of such insurance coverage with respect to any policy year exceed the Tail Cap, the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding the Tail Cap.

(c) Successors. In the event the Surviving Corporation, Parent or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then and in either such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors, assigns or transferees of the Surviving Corporation or Parent shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.09.

(d) Continuation. For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar documents) of each Company Subsidiary shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws or the equivalent organizational documents of any Company Subsidiary. The contractual indemnification rights, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any of the directors, officers or employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and which are set forth in Section 5.09(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation, without any further action, and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms following the Effective Time.

(e) Benefit. The provisions of this Section 5.09 (i) are intended, after the Closing, to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, his or her heirs, executors or administrators and his or her representatives, (ii) shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation and (iii) shall not be amended in a manner that is adverse to any Indemnified Parties (including their successors, assigns and heirs) without the consent of the Indemnified Party (including the successors, assigns and heirs) affected thereby.

(f) Non-Exclusivity. The provisions of this Section 5.09 are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 5.09, is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the

Company, any of the Company Subsidiaries or the Indemnified Parties, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.09 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

Section 5.10 Takeover Statutes. The parties shall use all reasonable efforts (a) to take all action necessary so that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to restrict or prohibit the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) if any Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to restrict or prohibit any of the foregoing, to take all action necessary so that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize (to the greatest extent practicable) the effects of such Takeover Statute on such transactions.

Section 5.11 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time and for a period ending on December 31, 2017, Parent shall provide or cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to provide to each individual who is an employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time and who remains employed by Parent or its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, following the Effective Time (each, a “Company Employee”) (i) a base salary or wage rate that is no less favorable than the base salary or wage rate provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) an annual cash bonus opportunity and/or cash commission opportunity (if applicable) that is not less favorable than the aggregate annual cash bonus opportunity and/or cash commission opportunity (if applicable) (excluding any award opportunity under any “Spot Award Policy” or any “Recognition Award” (in each case, as defined in Section 3.13 of the Company Disclosure Letter)) provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided under the severance plan, policy or agreement in effect for the benefit of such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iv) long-term incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable than those provided by Parent to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries (if any) and (v) other compensation and benefits (including retirement and welfare benefits and paid-time off, but excluding long-term incentive, equity-based or equity-linked compensation) that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the other compensation and benefits provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.11(a), from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to, assume, honor and continue all of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ employment, severance, retention and termination plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements (including any change in control or severance agreement between the Company or any Company Subsidiary and any Company Employee), in each case, in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event); provided, that, the foregoing shall not prohibit Parent or its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) from amending, suspending or terminating any such arrangements in accordance with their terms.

(c) For all purposes (including for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, level of benefits, vesting and benefit accruals (but not for purposes of defined benefit pension accruals)) under any “employee benefit plan” (as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, but without regard to whether the applicable plan is subject to ERISA) and any other employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, including any vacation, paid time off and severance plans, each Company Employee’s service with or otherwise credited by the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be treated as service with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits.

(d) Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to use commercially reasonable efforts to waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively at work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, in which Company Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Company Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which such Company Employee (and dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(e) If requested by Parent in writing at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause any Company Benefit Plan that is a defined contribution plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”) to be terminated effective as of the day immediately prior to the Effective Time and contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing. In the event that Parent requests that the Company 401(k) Plan be terminated, the Company shall provide Parent with evidence that such plan has been terminated (the form and substance of which shall be reasonably acceptable to Parent) not later than two (2) Business Days immediately preceding the Effective Time, and the Company Employees shall be eligible to participate, effective as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, in a defined contribution plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code sponsored or maintained by Parent or one of its Subsidiaries (a “Parent 401(k) Plan”). Parent shall take all actions necessary to permit the Company Employees who are then actively employed to make rollover contributions to the Parent 401(k) Plan of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in the form of cash, notes (in the case of loans) or a combination thereof in an amount equal to the full account balance (including earnings thereon) distributed to such Company Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall (i) be treated as an amendment or adoption of any Company Benefit Plan or any other arrangement or create any

rights or obligations except between the parties hereto, (ii) give any employee or former employee or any other individual associated therewith or any employee benefit plan or trustee thereof or any other third person any right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement (including this Section 5.11) or entitle any person not a party to this Agreement to assert any claim hereunder, or (iii) obligate Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their affiliates to (A) maintain any particular benefit plan, except in accordance with the terms of such plan or (B) retain the employment of any particular employee.

(g) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent a true and complete list of all Company Options and RSUs outstanding as of the Closing Date, specifying, on a holder-by-holder basis, (i) the name of each holder, (ii) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option or RSU, and (iii) the exercise price for each such Company Option.

(h) In connection with the Banking Business Transaction, the Company shall consult with and reasonably consider the views of Parent prior to agreeing to the Company Employees who will be listed as Business Employees within the meaning of the Bank Purchase Agreement.

Section 5.12 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such expense. Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, in connection with the transactions contemplated in Article II. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all sales, use, value added, documentary, stamp duty, gross receipts, registration, transfer, transfer gain, conveyance, excise, recording, license and other similar taxes and fees incurred in connection with the Merger shall be paid when due by Parent, Sub or, after the Closing, the Surviving Corporation.

Section 5.13 Rule 16b-3 Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall be permitted to take such actions as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to ensure that the dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) by any officer or director of the Company who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 5.14 Defense of Litigation. The Company shall control, and shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in, and, in any event, consult with Parent and keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to, any material developments regarding, the defense of any Proceeding brought by stockholders of the Company against the Company or its directors or officers arising out of or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement after the date hereof; provided, however, that the Company shall not settle any such Proceeding without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such settlement (a)(i) is solely for monetary damages entirely covered within the limits of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ insurance policies (other than the deductible under insurance policies) and (ii) is to provide additional disclosure in the Proxy Statement that does not (x) disparage Parent, Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of the respective affiliates or businesses of the foregoing or the impact or

effect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (y) involve the disclosure of competitively sensitive information of Parent, Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of the respective affiliates or businesses and (b) if Parent is a named party in such Proceeding, Parent receives the same release as the Company.

Section 5.15 FIRPTA Certificate. At the Effective Time, the Company shall deliver a statement, dated as of the Closing Date and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, that satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulation §§ 1.1445-2(c)(3) and 1.897-2(h) to certify that the Company Common Stock is not a U.S. real property interest.

In no event shall Parent be required to pay to the Company more than one Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.02(b). In the event that Parent receives full payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.02(b), the receipt of the Company Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy against the Company and the Company’s Related Parties for any and all Losses suffered or incurred by Parent, Sub, any of their respective Related Parties or any other person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, whether such Losses are based on contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law or otherwise and whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate or partnership veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of a party hereto or another person or otherwise.

Section 7.03 Amendment. Subject to Section 8.06(d), this Agreement may be amended by the parties at any time before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there may not be any amendment of this Agreement that decreases the Merger Consideration or that adversely affects the rights of the Company’s stockholders hereunder without the approval of the Company’s stockholders at a duly convened meeting of the Company’s stockholders called to obtain approval of such amendment. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.

Section 7.04 Waiver. Subject to Section 8.06(d), at any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any breach or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance by the other with any of the

covenants or conditions contained herein; provided, however, that after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there may not be any extension or waiver of this Agreement that decreases the Merger Consideration or that adversely affects the rights of the Company’s stockholders hereunder without the approval of the Company’s stockholders at a duly convened meeting of the Company’s stockholders called to obtain approval of such extension or waiver. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 8.03 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 8.04 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Annexes, Exhibits, Company Disclosure Letter and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 8.05 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, however, that each of Parent and Sub may assign this Agreement and any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company to (a) any of the Debt Financing Sources pursuant to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Debt Financing Agreements to the extent necessary for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning this Agreement and its rights hereunder as collateral in respect of the Debt Financing or (b) to any of its affiliates; provided further, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Sub of any of their respective obligations hereunder. Any assignment or transfer in violation of the preceding sentence shall be void.

Section 8.06 Parties in Interest.

(a) Except for (i) Article II, which, after the Closing, shall be for the benefit of any person entitled to payment thereunder and (ii) Section 5.09, which, after the Closing, shall be for the benefit of each Indemnified Party, his or her heirs, executors or administrators and his or her representatives, Parent, Sub and the Company hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other parties hereto, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein. The parties hereto further agree that the rights of third party beneficiaries under clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence shall not arise unless and until the Effective Time occurs. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties may be subject to waiver by the parties hereto in accordance with Section 7.04 without notice or liability to any other person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto. Consequently, persons other than the parties hereto may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

(b) Except as provided in Section 8.10(c) solely with respect to the Equity Financing Sources, any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement may only be brought against persons that are expressly named as parties hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein. Subject to Sections 7.02(c) and 8.10(c), other than each Equity Financing Source that is party to the Equity Commitment Letter and then solely with respect to the Equity Financing Sources’ obligations thereunder, no former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, members, managers, agents, affiliates, general or limited partners or assignees of the Company, Parent, Sub, the Equity Financing Sources or of any former, current or future direct or indirect equity holder, controlling person, stockholder, director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee general or limited partner, affiliate, agent or assignee of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Related Parties”) shall have any liability or obligation for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, obligations or liabilities of the Company,

Parent or Sub under this Agreement or of or for any action, suit, arbitration, claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby (including the breach, termination or failure to consummate such transactions (including the Merger)), in each case whether based on contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law or otherwise and whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate or partnership veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of a party hereto or another person or otherwise.

(c) Except as provided in Section 8.10(c) solely with respect to the Equity Financing Sources or any Equity Commitment Letter and then solely with respect to the Equity Financing Sources’ obligations thereunder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the Company or any of its Related Parties (other than Parent and Sub) shall have any rights or claims against any Financing Sources in connection with this Agreement, the Financing, any Alternative Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and no Financing Source shall have any rights or claims against the Company or any of its Related Parties (other than Parent and Sub) in connection with this Agreement, the Financing, any Alternative Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise (other than the Financing Sources’ rights in Section 8.06(d)); provided that, following consummation of the Merger, the foregoing will not limit the rights of the parties to the Financing or Alternative Financing under any commitment letter related thereto. No Financing Source shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or damages of a tortuous nature.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Debt Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of Sections 5.07(d), 7.02, 8.05, 8.06(c), 8.08(c), 8.08(d) and this Section 8.06(d), and each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of the Debt Financing Sources and the Debt Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections and (y) Sections 5.07(d), 7.02, 8.05, 8.06(c), 8.08(c), 8.08(d) and this Section 8.06(d) (and any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provision would modify the substance of such Sections) may not be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in any manner that impacts or is otherwise adverse in any respect to the Debt Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Equity Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of Sections 7.02, 8.08(c), 8.08(d), 8.10 and this Section 8.06, and each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of the Equity Financing Sources and the Equity Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections and (y) Sections 7.02, 8.08(c), 8.08(d), 8.10 and this Section 8.06 (and any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provision would modify the substance of such Sections) may not be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in any manner that impacts or is otherwise adverse in any respect to the Equity Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Equity Financing Sources; provided, however, in no event shall anything herein (including this Section 8.06) limit, impair or otherwise affect in any respect any of Parent’s or any of its affiliates’ or the Company’s or any of its affiliates’ rights against any of the Equity

Financing Sources or any of their affiliates (or any of the obligations of the Equity Financing Sources or any of their affiliates to Parent and its affiliates or the Company and its affiliates) under the Equity Commitment Letter or any other Contract between or among any of them.

Section 8.07 Mutual Drafting; Interpretation; Headings. Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: (a) the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; (b) the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; (c) the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and (d) the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and words of similar meaning, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Annexes” and “Exhibits,” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and the Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to U.S. dollars. The term “or” shall not be deemed to be exclusive. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References herein to “as of the date hereof,” “as of the date of this Agreement” or words of similar import shall be deemed to mean “as of immediately prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.” Whenever the phrase “has not had and would not be reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect” is used, “has not had” shall be construed to mean “has not had since January 1, 2016”. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that the Financing is the responsibility of Parent and Sub and not the Company or any Company Subsidiary and that (i) the Company makes no representations or warranties relating to the Financing (including whether the Company has authorized the Financing or whether any of the transactions contemplated by the Financing conflict with or violate any obligation of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or Contract to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party), (ii) except for Section 5.07(d), none of the covenants of the Company in this Agreement require the Company to take any action relating to the Financing and (iii) for purposes of the representations and warranties and covenants and obligations of the Company hereunder, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not include the Financing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that (A) except as set forth in Section 3.25, the Company makes no representations or warranties relating to the Bank Purchase Agreement, the Banking Entities or the Banking Business (including any Indebtedness of any Banking Entity), (B) the Company shall be permitted to take any actions required by the Bank Purchase Agreement or any other agreements or documents related thereto and doing so shall not be considered a breach or violation of this Agreement and (C) no Banking Business Transaction shall be considered a Competing Proposal unless it meets the requirements set forth in the definition thereof.

Section 8.08 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of Law thereof that would require the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any other party or its successors or assigns shall be brought and determined in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (unless the Delaware Court of Chancery shall decline to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, in which case, in any Delaware state or federal court within the State of Delaware), and each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties agrees not to commence any Proceeding relating thereto except in the courts in the State of Delaware, as described above, other than actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court.
