If any involuntary Transfer of any of the Shares shall occur (including, but not limited to, a sale by a Stockholders trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditors or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, take and hold such Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement.
3.3. Permitted Transfers.

doubt, it is the intent of the parties that all Company Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for any Company Common Stock that become beneficially owned by each Stockholder during the Voting Period be subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 4. Voting Agreement; Proxy.
4.1. Voting Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that during the Voting Period, at any meeting of the Company stockholders or in any action by written consent of the Company stockholders, such Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) (other than Company Options that have not yet been exercised), all of its Shares:
(a) in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement, and approval of the terms thereof, and in favor of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby;
(b) in favor of adoption of any proposal in respect of which the Company Board of Directors has (i) determined is designed to facilitate the consummation of the Merger, (ii) disclosed the determination described in clause (i) in the Companys proxy materials or other written materials disseminated to all of the Company stockholders and (iii) recommended to be adopted by the Company stockholders;
(c) against any Company Takeover Proposal; and

5
provided that in the event that such Stockholders proxy has been granted to the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(a) (and such proxy remains effective in accordance therewith), Stockholder shall have no obligations under this Section 4.1 with respect to the meeting of the Company stockholders for which such proxy has been granted.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 4.1 shall not require any Stockholder to vote (or cause to be voted) any of such Stockholders Shares to amend the Merger Agreement or take any action that could result in the consequences described in Section 6(d).
4.2. Grant of Proxy.
(a) In furtherance of Section 4.1 of this Agreement, subject to Sections 4.2(b) and 4.2(d) hereof and the proviso set forth below, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to and appoints Parent and up to two of Parents designated representatives (the Authorized Parties), and each of them individually, as such Stockholders proxy (with full power of substitution and resubstitution) to the full extent of such Stockholders voting rights with respect to such Shares for and in the name, place and stead of such Stockholder, to attend all meetings of the Company stockholders and to vote the Shares at any meeting of the Company stockholders or in any action by written consent of the Company stockholders, during the Voting Period solely on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 4.1 hereof, in each case subject to applicable Law (the Proxy); provided that in the case of any meeting of the Company stockholders during the Voting Period at which a matter described in Section 4.1 is to be considered, such Stockholders grant of the Proxy contemplated by this Section 4.2(a) shall be effective if, and only if, such Stockholder has not delivered to the Secretary of the Company at least three Business Days prior to such meeting a duly executed proxy card previously approved by Parent (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) voting such Stockholders Shares in the manner specified in Section 4.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the Proxy shall be effective for all actions by written consent of the Company stockholders during the Voting Period with respect to the matters set forth in Section 4.1.
(b) It is hereby agreed that the Authorized Parties will use any Proxy granted by any Stockholder solely in accordance with applicable Law and will only vote the Shares subject to such Proxy with respect to the matters and in the manner specified in Section 4.1 hereof. Subject to the foregoing sentence, following the grant of a Proxy pursuant to Section 4.2(a), the vote of an Authorized Party shall control in any conflict between the vote by an Authorized Party of such Shares and any other vote by such Stockholder of its Shares during the Voting Period.
(c) Each Stockholder hereby affirms that any Proxy granted pursuant to this Section 4.2 is given by such Stockholder in connection with, and in consideration of, the execution of the Merger Agreement by Parent, and that any such Proxy will be given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this Agreement specified in Section 4.1.
6
(d) Any Proxy granted pursuant to this Section 4.2 by such Stockholder shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by such Stockholder with respect to the matters specified in Section 4.1 but for the avoidance of doubt shall be deemed terminated and released with respect to any Shares sold or transferred on or after the date hereof in compliance with Section 3.3. Any Proxy granted hereunder shall automatically terminate, without any further action required by any person, and any underlying appointment shall automatically be revoked and rescinded and of no force and effect, at the end of the Voting Period.
(e) Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges that the Company has agreed, pursuant to Section 5.4(d), of the Merger Agreement, to recognize the Proxy at any meeting of the Company stockholders during the Voting Period. Each Stockholder hereby further agrees that it will not intentionally take any action or fail to take any action with the primary purpose of causing the Company to fail to recognize such Proxy.
4.3. Other Voting. Each Stockholder shall vote on all issues other than those specified in Section 4.1 hereof that may come before a meeting of, or action by written consent by, the Company stockholders in its sole discretion; provided that such vote or consent does not contravene the provisions of this Section 4. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall not have the right to be granted any proxy of a Stockholder in connection with any such vote.
SECTION 5. Further Assurances. Each Stockholder shall, from time to time, perform such further acts and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as Parent may reasonably request in writing for the purpose of effectuating the matters covered by this Agreement or that are necessary to vest in Parent the power to carry out and give effect to the provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 6. Termination. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall automatically terminate on the first to occur of (a) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) a written agreement between Parent and a Stockholder to terminate this Agreement (provided that in the case of this clause (b) any such termination shall be effective only with respect to such Stockholder or Stockholders party to such agreement to terminate, and not any other stockholder of the Company party to this Agreement or a similar agreement with Parent), (c) the Effective Time, and (d) the Merger Agreement is amended or modified, or a provision therein has been waived, in any such case, in a manner that (i) reduces the amount or changes the form of Merger Consideration to be paid to such Stockholder in connection with the Merger or (ii) provides for or otherwise results in disparate treatment of such Stockholder vis-a-vis the other Company stockholders with regard to the Merger Consideration or is materially adverse to the Stockholders. The representations, warranties, obligations and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall not survive any termination of this Agreement; provided that in the event this Agreement is terminated under clause (a) of the preceding sentence, no party shall be relieved from its liability for any Knowing and Material Breach of its obligations hereunder committed prior to such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, unless already ended, the Voting Period will automatically end when this Agreement is terminated in accordance with this Section 6.
