ARTICLE 2

THE MERGER

Section 2.01. The Merger. (a) At the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall be merged (the “Merger”) with and into the Company in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Law”), whereupon the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

(b) The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place in New York City at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, 450 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York, 10017 as soon as possible, but in any event no later than two Business Days after the date the conditions set forth in Article 9 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, waiver of such conditions by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof at the Closing) have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof, or at such other place, at such other time or on such other date as Parent and the Company may mutually agree (it being understood and agreed that the obligation of each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company to consummate the Closing is subject to the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, waiver by such party) of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article 9 for the benefit of such party as of the Closing) (the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”).

(c) At the Closing, the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall file a certificate of merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and make all other filings or recordings required by the Delaware Law in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time (the “Effective Time”) as the certificate of merger is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as Parent and the Company shall agree and is specified in the certificate of merger).

(d) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of the Company and Merger Subsidiary, all as provided under the Delaware Law.

Section 2.02. Conversion of Shares. (a) At the Effective Time:

(i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(a)(ii), Section 2.02(a)(iii) or Section 2.04, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive (i) 0.3885 (the “Exchange Ratio”) shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”) and (ii) $27.30 in cash (the “Per Share Cash Consideration”, and, together with the Per Share Stock Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”), without interest;

(ii) each share of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent or Merger Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any such shares owned by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in a fiduciary, representative or other capacity on behalf of other Persons, whether or not held in a separate account) shall be canceled, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto;

(iii) each share of Company Common Stock held by any Subsidiary of either the Company or Parent (other than Merger Subsidiary) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into a number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation such that each such Subsidiary owns the same percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time as such Subsidiary owned of the outstanding capital stock of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(iv) each share of common stock of Merger Subsidiary outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation (except for any such shares resulting from the conversion of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(iii)).

(b) As of the Effective Time, all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and (x) each certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) and (y) each uncertificated share of Company Common Stock (an “Uncertificated Share”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time was registered to a holder on the stock transfer books of the Company shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions

pursuant to Section 2.03(f) and any cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.07, in each case to be issued or paid in accordance with Section 2.03, without interest

Section 2.03. Surrender and Payment. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging (i) Certificates or (ii) Uncertificated Shares for the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.03 through the Exchange Agent, (x) certificates (or evidence of shares in book-entry form) representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i) in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and (y) cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i). Parent agrees to make available directly or indirectly to the Exchange Agent from time to time as needed additional cash sufficient to pay any dividends or other distributions to which such holders are entitled pursuant to Section 2.03(f) and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in no event more than five Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each holder of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and substantially finalized prior to the Effective Time and which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange. All certificates (or evidence of shares in book-entry form) and cash deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund.” Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the Merger Consideration contemplated to be issued or paid pursuant to this Article II out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; provided that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration payable to holders of Company Common Stock entitled to receive such consideration or cash in lieu of fractional interests; provided, further, that, to the extent necessary to pay the Merger Consideration, Parent shall promptly cause to be provided additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of holders of Company Common Stock entitled to receive such consideration in the amount of any such losses. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be the property of, and paid to, Parent upon termination of the Exchange Fund.

(b) Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, together with a

properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the Merger Consideration in respect of the Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share. The shares of Parent Common Stock constituting part of such Merger Consideration, at Parent’s option, shall be in uncertificated book-entry form, unless a physical certificate is requested by a holder of shares of Company Common Stock or is otherwise required under Applicable Law.

(c) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or similar Taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) The stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock thereafter on the records of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.03(f) and any cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holders are entitled pursuant to Section 2.07, in each case to the extent provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article 2.

(e) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock 12 months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent or as otherwise instructed by Parent, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.03 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends and distributions (and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock) with respect thereto, in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Common Stock

immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall become, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) No dividends or other distributions with respect to securities of Parent constituting part of the Merger Consideration, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 2.07, shall be paid to the holder of any Certificates not surrendered or of any Uncertificated Shares not transferred until such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 2.03. Following such surrender or transfer, there shall be paid, without interest, to the Person in whose name the securities of Parent constituting part of the Merger Consideration have been registered, (i) promptly after the time of such surrender or transfer, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07 and the aggregate amount of all dividends or other distributions payable with respect to securities of Parent constituting part of the Merger Consideration with a record date after the Effective Time that were paid prior to the time of such surrender or transfer with respect to such securities of Parent, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of all dividends or other distributions payable with respect to securities of Parent constituting part of the Merger Consideration with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to the time of such surrender or transfer and with a payment date subsequent to the time of such surrender or transfer.

(g) The payment of any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred solely by a holder of Company Common Stock in connection with the Merger, and the filing of any related Tax returns and other documentation with respect to such Taxes and fees, shall be the sole responsibility of such holder.

Section 2.04. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by a stockholder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware Law (such stockholders, the “Dissenting Stockholders” and such shares of Company Common Stock, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware Law (and, at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in

accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware Law), unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively waived, withdrawn or lost rights to appraisal under the Delaware Law. If any Dissenting Stockholders shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively waived, withdrawn or lost such rights, the Dissenting Shares held by such Dissenting Stockholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.02, without interest. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the Delaware Law and received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware Law, and Parent shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, settle or offer or agree to settle any such demands. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.03 to pay for shares of Company Common Stock for which appraisal rights have been perfected shall be returned to Parent upon demand.

Section 2.05. Stock Awards. (a) At the Effective Time:

(i) each option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock outstanding under any Employee Plan (each, a “Company Stock Option”), whether or not vested or exercisable, with a per share exercise price less than the Equity Award Cash Consideration, shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (A) the excess, if any, of (1) the sum of (x) the Per Share Cash Consideration plus (y) the value equal to the product of the Parent Stock Price multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (the sum of the amounts in clauses (x) and (y), the “Equity Award Cash Consideration”) over (2) the applicable per share exercise price of such Company Stock Option multiplied by (B) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option;

(ii) each share of Company Common Stock outstanding that is subject to forfeiture risk under any Employee Plan (collectively, “Company Restricted Shares”) and that, pursuant to its terms as of the date of this Agreement, is vested or becomes vested as of the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration;

(iii) (A) each performance share unit and restricted stock unit outstanding under any Employee Plan (collectively, “Company Stock Units”) that, pursuant to its terms as of the date of this Agreement, is vested or becomes vested as of the Effective Time, and each performance-

based Company Stock Unit held by the individual listed on Section 2.05(iii)(A) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (1) the Equity Award Cash Consideration multiplied by (2) the number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such unit; and

(B) each Company Stock Unit that, pursuant to its terms as of the date of this Agreement, is not vested and will not become vested as of the Effective Time (other than any performance-based Company Stock Unit held by the individual listed on Section 2.05(iii)(A) of Company Disclosure Schedule), in the event that the Merger is consummated, shall convert at the Effective Time into a cash-settled restricted stock unit with the number of shares of Parent Common Stock underlying such cash-settled restricted stock unit equal to (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Unit (as determined in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable thereto) immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (2) the Equity Award Cash Consideration divided by the Parent Stock Price; provided, that each such cash-settled restricted stock unit shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including service-based vesting) as applied to the corresponding Company Stock Units immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) During the 60-day period commencing on the date of this Agreement, Parent, in consultation with the Company, shall consider, after taking into account the terms and conditions of each applicable Company Stock Option, the appropriate treatment of each Company Stock Option, whether or not vested or exercisable, with a per share exercise price equal to or greater than the Equity Award Cash Consideration.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Company (and/or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company) shall pass such resolutions as are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05.

Section 2.06. Adjustments. Without limiting or affecting any of the provisions of Section 6.01 or Section 7.01, if, during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company or Parent shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split), merger, combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, subdivision or other similar transaction, or any stock dividend thereon with a record date during such period, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this

Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to eliminate the effect of such event on the Merger Consideration or any such other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.07. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger. All fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that a holder of shares of Company Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger shall be aggregated and, if a fractional share results from such aggregation, such holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash, without interest, determined by multiplying the Parent Stock Price by the fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled.

Section 2.08. Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article 2 such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of any Applicable Law, including federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. If the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, so withholds amounts, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding. Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, all amounts so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Taxing Authority within the period required under Applicable Law.

Section 2.09. Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article 2.

Section 2.10. Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Merger Subsidiary, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Merger Subsidiary, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

(a) At the time the registration statement of Parent to be filed with the SEC with respect to the offering of Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger (the “Registration Statement”) or any amendment or supplement thereto becomes effective and at the Effective Time, the Registration Statement, as supplemented or amended, if applicable, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The representations and warranties contained in this Section 5.09(a) will not apply to statements or omissions included in the Registration Statement based upon information furnished to Parent by the Company expressly for inclusion therein.

Section 5.11. Absence of Certain Changes. Since the Parent Balance Sheet Date, the business of Parent and its Subsidiaries has been conducted in the

ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, and there has not been any event, change, effect, development or occurrence that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Parent.

Section 5.12. No Undisclosed Material Liabilities. There are no liabilities or obligations of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any kind whatsoever, whether accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, and there is no existing condition, situation or set of circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in such a liability or obligation, other than (i) liabilities or obligations disclosed and provided for in the Parent Balance Sheet or in the notes thereto, (ii) liabilities or obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices since the Parent Balance Sheet Date and (iii) other liabilities or obligations that have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Parent.

Parent and each of its Subsidiaries is and since January 1, 2010, has been in compliance with the terms of the Parent Permits, except for failures to comply that have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Parent. Since January 1, 2010, no event has occurred that (i) gives to any Third Party any right of termination, cancellation, revocation or adverse modification (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) of any

Parent Permit or (ii) to the knowledge of Parent, would otherwise reasonably be expected to result in the termination, cancellation, revocation, adverse modification or non-renewal of any Parent Permit, other than, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), any such termination, revocation, cancellation, non-renewal or adverse modification that has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Parent.

Section 5.15. Compliance with Applicable Laws. Parent and each of its Subsidiaries is and since January 1, 2010, has been in compliance with all Applicable Laws, except for failures to comply that have not been and would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. There is and since January 1, 2010, has been no claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding (including an audit or examination) pending or, to, the knowledge of Parent, threatened against or affecting Parent or any of its Subsidiaries alleging any failure to comply with Applicable Law, except for failures to comply that have not been and would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 5.16. Opinion Of Financial Advisor. The Board of Directors of Parent has received separate opinions of each of Goldman Sachs & Co. and UBS Securities LLC to the effect that, as of the date of this Agreement and based upon and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth therein, the Merger Consideration to be paid by Parent pursuant to this Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Parent.

Section 5.17. Finders’ Fees. Except for Goldman Sachs & Co. and UBS Securities LLC, whose fees will be paid by Parent, there is no investment banker, broker, finder or other intermediary that has been retained by or is authorized to act on behalf of Parent who might be entitled to any fee or commission from the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.18. Financing. (a) Parent has delivered to the Company a complete and correct copy of a fully executed commitment letter from the financial institution(s) named therein (including all exhibits, schedules, and annexes to such letters as and to the extent delivered to the Company on or prior to the date of this Agreement, the “Debt Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which such financial institutions (including any financial institutions providing Alternative Financing or Replacement Debt Financing, the “Financing Sources”) have committed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to provide the debt financing described therein in connection with the Transactions. The Debt Commitment Letter and any other debt commitment letter (including any replacement of the Debt Commitment Letter in connection with any Alternative Financing or Replacement Debt Financing) executed in accordance with Section 7.06, as replaced, amended, supplemented, modified or waived in

accordance with Section 7.06, including all exhibits, schedules, and annexes to such letters, are hereinafter referred to together as the “Debt Commitment Letters.” The financing contemplated pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters is hereinafter referred to as the “Debt Financing.”

(b) As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and are legal, valid and binding obligations of Parent, and to the knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms against Parent, and to the knowledge of Parent, each of the other parties thereto. All commitment fees required to be paid under the Debt Commitment Letters have been paid in full or will be duly paid in full as and when due, and Parent and Merger Subsidiary have otherwise satisfied all of the other items and conditions required to be satisfied by them pursuant to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letters on or prior to the date of this Agreement. None of the Debt Commitment Letters have been amended, modified or terminated on or prior to the date of this Agreement, no such amendment, modification or termination is contemplated as of the date of this Agreement and no Debt Commitment Letter will be amended or modified except as consistent with Section 7.06. As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a breach or default by Parent or Merger Subsidiary under any Debt Commitment Letter. Neither Parent nor Merger Subsidiary is, as of the date of this Agreement, aware of any fact, occurrence or condition that makes any of the assumptions or statements set forth in any Debt Commitment Letter inaccurate (assuming the accuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties), in any material respect or that would cause the commitments provided in the Debt Commitment Letter to be terminated or ineffective or any of the conditions contained therein not to be met. The consummation of the Debt Financing is subject to no conditions precedent other than those expressly set forth in the copies of the Debt Commitment Letters delivered to the Company, and there are no contingencies that would permit the Financing Sources to reduce the total amount of the Debt Financing other than those expressly set forth in the copies of the Debt Commitment Letters delivered to the Company. Except for fee letters relating to fees with respect to the Debt Financing (redacted copies of which, removing only fee amounts, market “flex” provisions and certain other terms (none of which concern or would adversely affect the amounts, availability, timing or conditionality of the Debt Financing), have been provided to the Company), there are no side letters or other agreements, contracts or arrangements related to the funding of the Debt Financing, other than as expressly set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters delivered to the Company prior to the date of this Agreement. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming no breach by the Company of its representations and warranties under this Agreement (and cooperation and assistance by the Company as provided in this Agreement) and no breach or default by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement in either case such that the condition set forth in Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(b)

would fail to be satisfied, and based upon facts and events known by Parent as of the date of this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub have any reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Debt Financing will not be satisfied or the Debt Financing will not be consummated as contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letters on or prior to the Closing Date. The aggregate proceeds of the Debt Financing, together with cash or cash equivalents held by Parent and the other sources of funds referenced in the copies of the Debt Commitment Letters delivered to the Company, as of the Effective Time, will be sufficient to enable them to pay in cash all amounts required to be paid by them in cash in connection with the Transactions, including the Merger Consideration (and the treatment of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Shares and Company Stock Units pursuant to Section 2.05(a)) and all payments, fees and expenses payable by them related to or arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.19. No Ownership of Company Common Stock. To the knowledge of Parent, neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, any shares of Company Common Stock and neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has any rights to acquire any shares of Company Common Stock except pursuant to this Agreement. There are no voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a party with respect to the voting of the capital stock or other equity interest of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions on the Company set forth in the preceding sentence by any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section by the Company (it being understood and agreed that any such violation shall be determined as if such Representative is bound by the terms of this Section 6.03(a)).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders (and in no event after the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders), the Board of Directors of the Company, directly or indirectly through its Representatives may (x) contact any Third Party that has made after the date of this Agreement an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal in order to ascertain facts or clarify terms for the sole purpose of the Board of Directors of the Company informing itself about such Acquisition Proposal and such Third Party and (y) subject to compliance with this Section 6.03(b), Section 6.03(c) and Section 6.03(e), (i) engage in negotiations or discussions with any Third Party that, subject to the Company’s compliance with Section 6.03(a), has made after

the date of this Agreement a Superior Proposal or an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal, (ii) thereafter furnish to such Third Party and its Representatives and financing sources nonpublic information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a confidentiality agreement (which confidentiality agreement shall not include any provision requiring exclusive negotiations with such Third Party) with confidentiality terms no less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, a copy of which shall be provided, promptly after its execution, to Parent for informational purposes; provided that all such non-public information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is provided or made available to Parent, as the case may be, promptly (but no later than one Business Day) after or substantially concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such Third Party) and (iii) following receipt of a Superior Proposal after the date of this Agreement, (1) make an Adverse Recommendation Change and/or (2) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement providing for such Superior Proposal (provided that the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (2), and any purported termination pursuant to the foregoing clause (2) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless in advance of or concurrently with such termination the Company pays the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 10.03(d)), but in each case referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) only if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel to the Company, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board of Directors of the Company from (x) complying with Rule 14e-2(a) under the 1934 Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal, so long as any action taken or statement made to so comply is consistent with this Section 6.03, provided that (subject to the following sentence) any such action taken or statement made that involves or relates to an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Board of Directors of the Company reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such statement or in connection with such action; or (y) making any required disclosure to the stockholders of the Company if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with Applicable Law, provided that any Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to an Acquisition Proposal may only be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.03(b), Section 6.03(c) and Section 6.03(e). For the avoidance of doubt, a “stop, look and listen” disclosure or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the 1934 Act shall not be an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(c) In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 6.03(b), the Board of Directors of the Company shall not take any of the actions referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 6.03(b) unless the Company shall have first delivered to Parent written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action, and the Company shall continue to advise Parent, on a current basis, after taking such action of the status and material terms of any discussions and negotiations with the applicable Third Party. In addition, the Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Acquisition Proposal, any indication that a Third Party is considering making an Acquisition Proposal or any request for information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Third Party that may be considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall be provided orally and in writing and shall identify the Third Party making, and the material terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request (including any material changes thereto). The Company shall keep Parent fully informed, on a current basis, of the status and details of any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request (including any changes thereto) and shall promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours after receipt) provide to Parent copies of all material correspondence and written materials sent or provided to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that describes any terms or conditions of any Acquisition Proposal (as well as written summaries of any material oral communications addressing such matters).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders (and in no event after the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders), the Board of Directors of the Company may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to an Intervening Event if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided that (x) the Company shall (A) promptly notify Parent in writing of its intention to take such action and (B) negotiate in good faith with Parent for two Business Days following such notice regarding revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent and (y) the Board of Directors of the Company shall not effect any Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to an Intervening Event unless, after the two Business Day period described in the foregoing clause (B), the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under Applicable Law.

(e) Without limiting or affecting Section 6.03(a), Section 6.03(b) or Section 6.03(c), the Board of Directors of the Company shall not make an

Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to a Superior Proposal or terminate this Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal unless (i) the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing at least five calendar days before taking such action, that it intends to take such action, which notice attaches the most current version of any proposed agreement or a detailed summary of all material terms of such Superior Proposal and the identity of the offeror, (ii) if requested by Parent, during such five calendar day period, the Company and its Representatives have discussed and negotiated in good faith with Parent regarding any proposal by Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement in response to such Superior Proposal and (iii) after such five calendar day period, the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, taking into account any proposal by Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that in the event of any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of any such Superior Proposal, a new written notification from the Company consistent with that described in clause (i) of this Section 6.03(e) shall be required and a new notice period under clause (i) of this Section 6.03(e) shall commence, during which notice period the Company shall be required to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.03(e) anew, except that such new notice period shall be for three Business Days (as opposed to five calendar days)). After delivery of such written notice pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall promptly keep Parent informed of all material developments affecting the material terms of any such Superior Proposal (and the Company shall provide Parent with copies of any additional written materials received that relate to such Superior Proposal).

(f) “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal (with all references to “20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal being deemed to be references to “50%”) on terms that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, and taking into account all the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Company considers to be appropriate (including the expected timing and likelihood of consummation, any governmental or other approval requirements, break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions, conditions to consummation and availability of necessary financing), would result in a transaction (i) that if consummated, is more favorable to the Company’s stockholders from a financial point of view (taking into account, among other items, the tax attributes of such transaction) than the Merger (taking into account any proposal by Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement), (ii) that is reasonably capable of being completed on the terms proposed, taking into account the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal, any approval requirements and all other financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal and (iii) for which financing, if a cash transaction (whether in whole or in part), is then fully committed in a manner comparable to Parent’s and Merger Subsidiary’s financing (or which is reasonably determined to be available by the Board of Directors of the Company).

(g) “Intervening Event” means any material event, change, effect, development or occurrence occurring or arising after the date of this Agreement that (i) was not known or reasonably foreseeable to the Board of Directors or executive officers of the Company as of or prior to the date of this Agreement and (ii) does not relate to or involve an Acquisition Proposal.

(h) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any Third Party conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such Party (or its agents or advisors) in possession of confidential information about the Company that was furnished by or on behalf of the Company to return or destroy all such information. During the term of this Agreement, except in connection with the termination of this Agreement to enter into a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 6.03(b), the Company shall not take any actions to exempt any Person other than Parent and Merger Subsidiary from any antitakeover provision in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, or make any state takeover statute (including any Delaware state takeover statute) or similar statute inapplicable to any Acquisition Proposal.

(i) Notwithstanding (i) any Adverse Recommendation Change, (ii) the making of any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not publicly) or (iii) anything in this Agreement to the contrary, until termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms (x) in no event may the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (A) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar instrument constituting or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, (B) except as required by Applicable Law, make, facilitate or provide information in connection with any SEC or other regulatory filings in connection with the transactions contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal or (C) seek any third-party consents in connection with the transactions contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal and (y) the Company shall otherwise remain subject to all of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 6.04. Access to Information; Confidentiality. From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, upon reasonable notice and subject to Applicable Law, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, (i) give to Parent, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to its offices, properties, books, Contracts and records, (ii) furnish as promptly as reasonably practicable to Parent, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized

representatives such financial and operating data and other information as such Persons may reasonably request, in each case unless furnishing such information would constitute a violation of Applicable Law or of any confidentiality obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to contracts; provided that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the beneficiaries of any such confidentiality obligations to provide any consent necessary to permit the Company and its Subsidiaries to furnish such information, and (iii) instruct its employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives to reasonably cooperate with Parent in its investigation; provided, however, that (1) the Company shall not be required to afford such access if it would unreasonably disrupt its operations or those of any of its Subsidiaries or would cause a risk of a loss of privilege to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or would constitute a violation of any Applicable Law and (2) Parent shall not have access to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information that in the reasonable opinion of the Company is sensitive or the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to risk of liability or information that is subject to attorney-client privilege or other privilege. All such access shall be subject to reasonable restrictions imposed from time to time with respect to the provision of privileged communications or any applicable confidentiality agreement with any Person. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall be conducted in such manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company or damage any property or any portion thereof. All information furnished pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the confidentiality agreement, dated as of April 26, 2012, between Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 6.05. Tax Matters. (a) From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall (i) make or change any Tax election; (ii) change any annual Tax accounting period; (iii) adopt or change any method of tax accounting; (iv) enter into any closing agreement with respect to Taxes; (v) consent to any extension or waiver of the limitations period applicable to any Tax claim or assessment (other than (A) with respect to the claims and assessments set forth in Section 6.05 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, any extension or waiver of the limitations period for a period not to exceed six months and (B) with respect to other claims and assessments, any extension or waiver of the limitations period for a period not to exceed 12 months); (vi) file any amended Tax Returns or claims for Tax refunds; (vii) settle or surrender any material Tax claim, audit or assessment (A) with respect to the claims, audits, or assessments set forth in Section 6.05 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, for an amount materially in

excess of amounts reserved, and (B) with respect to any other claims, audits, or assessments, for an amount in excess of $1,000,000, individually; or (viii) surrender any right to claim a Tax refund, or offset or other reduction in Tax liability, in each case, in lieu of a Tax refund, if the amount of the Tax refund, offset or other reduction in Tax liability so surrendered exceeds $1,000,000; except (x) with respect to each of clauses (i) through (viii), as may be required by Applicable Law or as set forth in Section 6.05 of the Company Disclosure Schedule or (y) with respect to each of clauses (i) through (vi), as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, an adverse effect on the Company that is material.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.05 contains the sole and exclusive covenants in this Agreement of the Company regarding Tax matters.

Section 6.06. Financing Assistance. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at the sole expense of Parent, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to provide such cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of any financing to be consummated in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at the sole expense of Parent, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) as promptly as reasonably practicable providing information (financial or otherwise) relating to Company to the Persons providing the financing (including information to be used in the preparation of an information package regarding the business, operations, financial projections and prospects of Parent and the Company customary or reasonably necessary for the completion of such financing) to the extent reasonably requested by Parent to assist in preparation of customary offering or information documents to be used for the completion of the financing, (ii) cooperate with the marketing efforts of Parent and its financing sources, including participating in reasonable number of meetings, due diligence sessions and road shows, at times and at locations reasonably acceptable to the Company, (iii) reasonably assist in preparing customary offering memoranda, rating agency presentations, lender presentations, financial statements (including pro forma financial statements, all of which unaudited financial statements shall have been reviewed by the Company’s independent accountants as provided in Statement on Accounting Standards No. 100), private placement memoranda, prospectuses and other similar documents, including delivery of (A) audited consolidated balance sheets and related audited statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company for each of the three fiscal years most recently ended at least 90 days prior to the Closing Date (and audit reports for such financial statements shall not be subject to any “going concern” qualifications) and (B) unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related

unaudited statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company for each subsequent fiscal quarter ended at least 60 days prior to the Closing Date, (iv) make available, on a customary and reasonable basis and upon reasonable notice, appropriate personnel, documents and information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by Parent, (v) obtain any necessary consents from auditors in connection with any filings with the SEC; provided that until the Closing occurs, the Company shall (A) have no liability or any obligation under any agreement or document related to the financing or (B) not be required to incur any other liability in connection with the financing unless simultaneously reimbursed or reasonably satisfactorily indemnified by Parent, (vi) obtain customary legal opinions, financing accountants’ comfort letters and consents of accountants for use of their reports in any materials relating to the financing and in connection with any filings required to be made by Parent pursuant to the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (including the Registration Statement), (vii) subject to customary confidentiality provisions, provide customary authorization letters to the Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders or investors and (viii) obtain customary payoff letters and instruments of discharge to be delivered at Closing to allow for the payoff, discharge and termination in full on the Closing Date of the Credit Agreement. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries contemplated by this Section 6.06 (without duplication of any reimbursement pursuant to the preceding sentence). Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall, on a joint and several basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred in connection with any financing or other securities offering of Parent and/or its Subsidiaries or any assistance or activities provided in connection therewith.

Section 6.07. Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall promptly advise Parent orally and in writing of any stockholder litigation (including derivative claims) against the Company and/or its directors relating to this Agreement, the Merger and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall keep Parent fully informed regarding any such stockholder litigation. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to consult with the Company regarding the defense or settlement of any such stockholder litigation and shall give due consideration to Parent’s advice with respect to such stockholder litigation. Further, the Company shall not settle any litigation commenced on or after the date of this Agreement against it or any of its directors or executive officers by any stockholder of the Company relating to this Agreement, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated hereby or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)

Section 6.08. Transition. (a) In order to facilitate the integration and the operations of the Company and Parent and their respective Subsidiaries and to permit the coordination of their related operations on a timely basis after the Effective Time, and in an effort to accelerate to the earliest time possible after the Effective Time the realization of synergies, operating efficiencies and other benefits expected to be realized as a result of the Merger, the Company, upon Parent’s request, shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to consult with Parent on all strategic and operational matters, including with respect to the renewal or extension of any lease or sublease of real property expiring in 2013 for more than a one year renewal or extension term (and shall not enter into any such renewal or extension prior to consulting with Parent), to the extent such consultation is not in violation of Applicable Law. In furtherance of the foregoing, upon Parent’s request, the parties shall establish a transition planning team of at least six members (the “Transition Team”) comprised of an equal number of representatives of Parent and the Company, which shall be responsible for facilitating a transition and integration planning process to ensure the successful combination of the operations of Parent and the Company. Upon Parent’s request, subject to Applicable Law, the Transition Team shall be responsible for developing and implementing a detailed action plan for the combination of the businesses from and after the Effective Time and shall (i) confer on a regular and continued basis regarding the status of the transition and integration planning process, (ii) communicate and consult with its members with respect to (x) the manner in which the respective businesses will be conducted from and after the Effective Time and (y) the manner in which the Company’s accounting, investment, hedging, underwriting and claims administration policies and practices will be conformed to those of Parent from and after the Effective Time and (iii) coordinate human resources integration. Upon Parent’s request, the Company shall devote sufficient resources to the Transition Team and share information as necessary to achieve the objectives set forth in this Section 6.08, including making available its facilities and those of its Subsidiaries, in order to assist the Transition Team, to the extent not in violation of Applicable Law.

(b) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, (i) at the reasonable request of Parent, the Company shall cooperate in good faith with Parent to establish and implement Company-sponsored employee retention and transition incentive programs designed to encourage the retention and performance of employees and groups of employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who are mutually identified by the Company and Parent and (ii) the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, coordinate with Parent with respect to the formulation and dissemination of all internal and external communications and announcements relating to the impact on employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries of the Merger and the integration of the operations

of the Company with those of Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the adoption of a retention and transition incentive program described above pursuant to the mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent, and the obligations and liabilities relating to such agreed program, shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the completeness, truthfulness and accuracy of the representations of the Company set forth in Article 4 and for purposes of determining the Company’s compliance with its covenants under Section 6.01.

Section 6.09. Indentures. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely provide or cause to be provided, in accordance with the provisions of the indentures relating to the Company’s 6.125% Senior Notes due 2015, 5.950% Senior Notes due 2017, 6.300% Senior Notes due 2014 and 5.450% Senior Notes due 2021 (the (“Indentures”), to the trustee under each Indenture, any notices, announcements, certificates or legal opinions required by such Indenture to be provided in connection with the Merger prior to the Effective Time. Parent and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such notice, announcement, certificate or legal opinion, in each case before such document is provided to such trustee, and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Parent and its counsel.

ARTICLE 7

COVENANTS OF PARENT

Parent agrees that:

Section 7.01. Conduct of Parent. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of termination of this Agreement and the Effective Time, except (x) as prohibited or required by Applicable Law, (y) as set forth in Section 7.01 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule or (z) as otherwise required or expressly contemplated by this Agreement, unless the Company shall otherwise consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, conduct its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and in compliance in all material respects with all Applicable Laws and all Parent Permits and use its commercially reasonable efforts to preserve intact its business organization and relationships with customers, suppliers, licensors, licensees, distributors and other third parties and keep available the services of its present officers and employees; provided, however, that no action or failure to take action by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to matters specifically addressed by any provision of Section 7.01(a) through (c) shall constitute a breach under this paragraph unless such action or failure to take action would constitute a breach of such provision of Section 7.01(a) through (c), as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, from the date of

this Agreement until the earlier of termination of this Agreement and the Effective Time, except with the Company’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Parent shall not:

(a) adopt or propose any change in Parent’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws in a manner materially adverse to the Company’s stockholders (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise);

(b) declare, set aside or pay any dividend or other distribution, payable in cash, stock or property, with respect to any of its capital stock, other than regular cash dividends in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; or

Section 7.02. Obligations of Merger Subsidiary. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Subsidiary to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Section 7.03. Director and Officer Liability. (a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law (including to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the Delaware Law adopted after the date of this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors), indemnify, defend and hold harmless (and promptly advance expenses from time to time as incurred to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, provided, the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides a reasonable and customary undertaking (which shall not include posting of any collateral) to repay such advances, if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification) the present and former directors, officers and employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative, regulatory or investigative, arising out of, relating to or in connection with any circumstances, developments or matters in existence, or acts or omissions occurring or alleged to occur prior to or at the Effective Time in their capacities as officers, directors and employees of the Company, including the approval of this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby or arising out of or pertaining to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time.

(b) Following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect the provisions in its certificate of incorporation and bylaws to the extent they provide for indemnification, advancement and reimbursement of expenses and exculpation of Indemnified Parties, as applicable, with respect to facts or circumstances occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, on the same basis as set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company in effect on the date of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted from time to time under Applicable Law, which provisions shall not be amended except as required by Applicable Law or except to make changes permitted by Applicable Law that would enlarge the scope of the Indemnified Parties’ indemnification rights thereunder.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, in consultation with Parent, purchase a six year extended reporting period endorsement with respect to the Company’s currently existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance, which endorsement shall contain coverage that is at least as protective to the Persons covered by such existing insurance, and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain such endorsement in full force and effect for its full term, provided that in no event shall the aggregate cost of such endorsement exceed 300% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance (the “Maximum Amount”); provided, further that if the aggregate cost of such endorsement exceeds the Maximum Amount, the Company shall purchase, and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain, as much comparable insurance as is available for the Maximum Amount. Such endorsement shall be placed through such broker(s) and with such insurance carriers as may be specified by Parent and as are reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(d) If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or the surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.03.

(e) The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Section 7.03 shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or under the Delaware Law or any other Applicable Law or under any agreement of any Indemnified Person with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, honor and perform under all indemnification agreements entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). These rights shall survive consummation of the Merger and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person. The obligations of Parent under this Section 7.03 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Person unless the

affected Indemnified Person shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification. It is expressly agreed that each Indemnified Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.03, and entitled to enforce the covenants contained in this Section 7.03. If any Indemnified Person makes any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 7.03 that is denied by Parent and/or the Surviving Corporation, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Indemnified Person is entitled to such indemnification, then Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall pay such Indemnified Person’s costs and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, incurred in connection with pursuing such claim against Parent and/or the Surviving Corporation.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement 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 or any of its respective Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.03 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

Section 7.04. Employee Matters. (a) Subject to Section 7.04(c), following the Effective Time, Parent will or, as applicable, will cause its Subsidiaries to, honor all obligations under all Employee Plans that exist on the date of this Agreement (or as established or amended in accordance with or permitted by this Agreement) that apply to any current or former employee, or current or former director, of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Through the end of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs (the “Benefits Continuation Period”), the Surviving Corporation shall provide, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, to the individuals who are employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time and to the extent they continue as employees of the Surviving Corporation or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries during all or a portion of the Benefits Continuation Period (the “Affected Employees”) compensation (including base salary, bonus and other incentive compensation opportunities) and employee benefits no less favorable in the aggregate than the compensation and employee benefits provided to the Affected Employees under the Employee Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time. For two years following the Effective Time, individuals who are employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be provided with severance benefits in amounts and on terms and conditions that are no less favorable than those provided to such individuals immediately prior to the Effective Time, as set forth in the Company’s Severance Pay Plan, effective as of January 1, 2012.

(b) With respect to any employee benefit plan in which any Affected Employee first becomes eligible to participate, on or after the Effective Time (the “New Company Plans”), Parent shall: (a) waive all pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage

requirements applicable to such Affected Employee under any health and welfare New Company Plans in which such Affected Employee may be eligible to participate after the Effective Time, (b) recognize service of Affected Employees (or otherwise credited by the Company or its Subsidiaries) accrued prior to the Effective Time for all purposes under (but not for the purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan) any New Employee Plan in which such Affected Employees may be eligible to participate after the Effective Time, provided, however, that in no event shall any credit be given to the extent it would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service and (c) if applicable, cause to be credited any deductibles or out-of-pocket expenses incurred by employees of the Company and their beneficiaries and dependents during the portion of the calendar year prior to their participation in Parent’s health plans with the objective that there be no double counting during the year in which the Effective Time occurs of such deductibles or out-of-pocket expenses.

(c) (i) Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to continue to employ any Affected Employee for any period of time following the Effective Time, (ii) nothing herein shall prevent Parent or its Affiliates from revising, amending or terminating any Employee Plan or any other employee benefit plan, program or policy in effect from time to time, (iii) nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an amendment of any Employee Plan, and (iv) no provision of this Section 7.04 shall create any third-party beneficiary rights in any director, officer, employee or individual independent contractor (including former directors, officers, employees or individual independent contracts) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any beneficiary or dependent of such individual).

Section 7.05. Stock Exchange Listing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger to be listed on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

Section 7.06. Financing. (a) Each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to arrange the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letters, including using commercially reasonable efforts (i) to negotiate and enter into the definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letters (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in any related fee letter) by a date no later than the date that is three months from the date hereof and (ii) to satisfy (or if determined advisable by Parent and Merger Subsidiary, obtain the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing within Parent’s and Merger Subsidiary’s control and to comply with all of its obligations pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters and the definitive agreements related thereto. In the event that all conditions to funding the commitments contained in the Debt Commitment Letters have been satisfied,

each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses on the Closing Date (including, to the extent commercially reasonable, by taking enforcement action to cause the Financing Sources to provide the Debt Financing). Each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce all of its rights under the Debt Commitment Letters. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall give the Company prompt notice of any material breach by any party to the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements related thereto of which Parent or Merger Subsidiary has become aware or any termination of any of the Commitment Letters or such definitive agreements. In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall (1) use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, alternative debt financing for any such portion from alternative debt sources (“Alternative Financing”) in an amount that will still enable Parent and Merger Subsidiary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (2) promptly notify the Company of such unavailability and the reason therefor. If obtained, Parent shall deliver to the Company true and complete copies of all agreements (other than any fee letters and engagement letters) pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide Parent or the Surviving Corporation with Alternative Financing. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) permit any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, any Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related thereto unless the terms of such Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related thereto, in each case as so amended, modified or waived, are substantially similar to those in such Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreement related thereto, prior to giving effect to such amendment, modification or waiver (other than economic terms, which shall as good as or better for Parent and Merger Subsidiary than those in the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreement relating thereto prior to giving effect to such amendment, modification or waiver); provided that in the case of amendments or modifications of any Debt Commitment Letter or a definitive agreement relating thereto, the foregoing shall only apply if such amendment or modification (x) could reasonably be expected to (I) adversely affect the ability or likelihood of Parent or Merger Subsidiary timely consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (II) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing less likely to occur, (y) reduces the amount of the Debt Financing or (z) adversely affects the ability of Parent or Merger Subsidiary to enforce their rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements relating thereto. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of the receipt of any notice or other communication from any financing source with respect to such financing

source’s failure or anticipated failure to fund its commitments under any Debt Commitment Letters or definitive agreement in connection therewith. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of its efforts to consummate the Debt Financing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parent, in its sole discretion, may replace any existing Debt Commitment Letter with a debt commitment letter (a “Replacement Debt Commitment Letter”) pursuant to which financial institutions selected by it in its sole discretion commit to provide debt financing to finance the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Replacement Debt Financing”) and on or following the effectiveness thereof Parent may, in its sole discretion terminate the existing Debt Commitment Letter and the commitments thereunder; provided that, without the Company’s consent, the terms of such Replacement Debt Financing shall be substantially similar to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreement relating thereto being replaced (other than economic terms, which shall be as good as or better for Parent and Merger Subsidiary than those in the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreement relating thereto being replaced). Promptly following the execution of a Replacement Debt Commitment Letter by Parent, Parent shall notify the Company to such effect and shall promptly provide a fully executed copy of such Replacement Debt Commitment Letter and any related agreements (other than any fee letters or engagement letters). Such notice shall also satisfy the Parent’s notification requirements under Section 7.06(b) relating to termination of the existing Debt Commitment Letter.

COVENANTS OF PARENT AND THE COMPANY

The parties hereto agree that:

Section 8.01. Reasonable Best Efforts. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law to consummate the Merger, (x) including (i) preparing and filing as promptly as practicable with any Governmental Authority or other Third Party all documentation to effect all necessary Filings, (ii) obtaining and maintaining all licenses, authorizations, permits, consents, approvals, clearances, variances, exemptions, orders and other confirmations required to be obtained from any Governmental Authority or other Third Party that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Merger and (iii) cooperating to the extent reasonable with the other parties hereto in their efforts to comply with their obligations under this Agreement and (y) which may include contesting (which may include by litigation) any (i) action, suit, investigation or proceeding brought by any Governmental Authority in a federal, state or administrative court seeking to

enjoin, restrain, prevent, prohibit or make illegal consummation of the Merger or seeking damages or to impose any terms or conditions in connection with the Merger or (ii) Order that has been entered by a federal, state or administrative court that enjoins, restrains, prevents, prohibits or makes illegal consummation of the Merger or imposes any damages, terms or conditions in connection with the Merger. Subject to clause (y) of the preceding sentence, the parties understand and agree that Parent’s obligation to use its reasonable best efforts set forth in this Section 8.01(a) includes taking all actions and doing all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law (including divestitures and the entry into other commitments and limitations) to obtain the governmental approvals described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) of the first sentence of Section 8.01(b) to consummate the Merger so long as such actions would not have and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent or on the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.01(a) or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement will obligate or require Parent or Merger Subsidiary to take or cause to be taken any action (or refrain or cause to refrain from taking any action) or agree or cause to agree to any term, condition or limitation as a condition to, or in connection with, (x) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period relating to the Merger under the HSR Act, (y) any other Applicable Law that is designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or (z) obtaining any Required Governmental Authorization, in each case if such action (or refraining from such action), term, condition or limitation would have or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent or on the Company. “Regulatory Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to any Person, any event, change, effect, development or occurrence, in each case resulting from or arising out of the matters contemplated by clauses (x) through (z) of the first sentence of this Section 8.01(b), that has a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, revenue or EBITDA of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided that, for purposes of determining whether any action, term or condition would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent, Parent and its Subsidiaries will collectively be deemed to be a company the size of (and with revenue and EBITDA equal to those of) the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, further, that, for purposes of determining whether any action, term or condition would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent or on the Company, (i) impacts on the synergies expected to be realized from the Merger that are publicly disclosed by Parent will be taken into account and (ii) impacts on Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries will be aggregated. “EBITDA” means, with respect to any Person, the sum of (1) consolidated net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, plus (2) without duplication and to the extent deducted in determining such

consolidated net income, the sum of (I) consolidated interest expense, (II) consolidated income tax expense and (III) all amounts attributed to depreciation or amortization, in each case of such Person and its Subsidiaries .

(c) Neither the Company nor Parent shall, and each of them shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), acquire, purchase, lease or license (or agree to acquire, purchase, lease or license) any business, corporation, partnership, association or other business organization or division or part thereof, or any securities or collection of assets, if doing so would reasonably be expected to: (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any Consent, or exemption of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby; or (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 8.01(a), the parties shall as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement, make all Filings with all Governmental Authorities that may be or may become reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under this Agreement and Applicable Law to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including: (i) not later than 30 Business Days following the date of this Agreement, Parent filing, or causing to be filed, “Form A Statements” or similar change of control applications, with the insurance commissioners or departments of health or other Governmental Authorities in each jurisdiction where required by Applicable Law seeking approval of Parent’s acquisition of control of each of the Regulated Subsidiaries which results from the Merger; (ii) as promptly as practicable, Parent filing, or causing to be filed, any pre-acquisition notifications on “Form E” or similar market share notifications to be filed in each jurisdiction where required by Applicable Laws with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) not later than 10 Business Days following the date of this Agreement (unless the Parties otherwise agree to another time period), the Company and Parent each making an appropriate Filing of a notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act with the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and requesting early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act; (iv) the Company and Parent each making any other Filing that may be required under any other Applicable Laws relating to antitrust or by any Governmental Authority having antitrust jurisdiction under Applicable Law; (v) not later than 60 days prior to the Closing, the Company and Parent filing any required notices to CMS, with a separate notice to the CMS Central and/or Regional Office Medicare Advantage and/or Part D plan manager if applicable; and (vi) the Company and Parent each promptly making any other Filing that may be required under any Applicable Laws or by any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over enforcement of any such Applicable Law.

(e) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company and Parent shall, as promptly as practicable, (i) upon the reasonable request of the other party, furnish to such party and upon any reasonable request from a Governmental Authority, furnish to such Governmental Authority, any information or documentation concerning themselves, their Affiliates, directors, officers and securityholders, information or documentation concerning the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and such other matters as may be requested and (ii) make available their respective personnel and advisers to each other and, upon reasonable request, any Governmental Authority, in connection with (A) the preparation of any Filing made by or on their behalf to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or (B) any investigation, review or approval process.

(f) Subject to Applicable Laws relating to the sharing of information, each of the Company and Parent shall promptly notify the other of any Filing or material communication or inquiry it or any of its Affiliates intends to make with or receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, and prior to submitting any Filing, substantive written communication, correspondence or other information or response by such party or any or its Representatives, on the one hand, to any Governmental Authority, or members of the staff of any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, the submitting party shall permit the other party and its counsel the opportunity to review as reasonably in advance as practicable under the circumstances, and consider in good faith the comments of the other party in connection with any such Filing, communication or inquiry and further each of the Company and Parent shall furnish each other with a copy of any Filing, communication or, if in written form, inquiry, it or any of its Affiliates makes to or receives from any Governmental Authority relating to matters that are the subject of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement, the Clean Team Confidentiality Agreement and all other agreements entered into by the parties to this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing (including in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act). Each such party shall promptly inform the other parties hereto of any material oral communication with, and provide copies of material written communications with, any Governmental Authority regarding any Filing. None of the parties hereto shall agree to participate in any substantive meeting or conference with any Governmental Authority, or any member of the staff of any Governmental Authority, in respect of any Filing, proceeding, investigation (including any settlement of the investigation), litigation, or other inquiry unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, allows the other party to participate.

Neither party shall be required to comply with any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.01(f) to the extent that such compliance would be prohibited by Applicable Law. The parties further covenant and agree not to voluntarily extend any waiting period associated with any consent or approval of any Governmental Authority (including under the HSR Act) or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority or other Third Party not to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Parent shall have responsibility for the filing fees associated with its “Form A Statements” or similar change of control applications and its “Form E” or similar market share notifications.

(g) Each of the Company and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 8.01 as “Outside Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient and, subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement the parties may mutually propose and enter into, will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (the Company or Parent, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.01, materials provided to the other party or its outside counsel may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning valuation, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall (i) Parent or its Affiliates or the Company or its Affiliates be required to agree to take or enter into any action which is not conditioned upon the Closing or (ii) the Company or its Affiliates agree to any obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, condition, remedy or other action relating to consents or approvals required to be obtained by the parties or their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger without the prior written consent of Parent.

Section 8.02. Certain Filings; SEC Matters.

Each of Parent and the Company shall provide the other party and its counsel with (x) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that such party or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Company Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, as applicable, promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (y) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating in any discussions or meetings with the SEC.

(d) If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Company Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly

notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Applicable Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company. The parties shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any oral or written notice of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any oral or written request by the SEC for amendment of the Company Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Company Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of (i) all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Company Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement or the Merger and (ii) all orders of the SEC relating to the Registration Statement.

Section 8.01(b) that shall not have become final and non-appealable and that enjoins, restrains, prevents, prohibits or makes illegal consummation of the Merger, (B) within 30 days of such Order first being in effect, Parent shall not have instituted appropriate proceedings seeking to have such Order vacated, lifted, reversed, overturned or terminated and (C) such failure to institute appropriate proceedings shall not have been cured by Parent within 10 days following irrevocable written notice to Parent from the Company of the Company’s intent to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(d)(iii) in respect of such failure (which notice may not be given prior to the expiration of such 30-day period and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be effective if Parent institutes such appropriate proceedings within such 10-day period).

The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01 (other than pursuant to Section 10.01(a)) shall give notice of such termination to the other party.

Section 10.02. Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect without liability of any party (or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or Representative of such party) to the other party hereto (except as provided in Section 10.03); provided that neither Parent nor the Company shall be released from any liabilities or damages arising out of any (i) fraud by any party, (ii) the willful and intentional breach by any party of any representation or warranty on the part of such party set forth in this Agreement or (iii) the willful and intentional breach of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 10.02, Section 10.03 and Article 11 (other than Section 11.13) shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 10.01.

Section 10.03. Termination Fee. (a) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 10.01(c)(i) or 10.01(c)(iii), then the Company shall pay Parent a fee of $167,500,000 (the “Termination Fee”) within one Business Day after the date of such termination.

(b) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(iii) and an Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred, then the Company shall pay Parent the Termination Fee simultaneously with termination of the Agreement (in the case of a termination by the Company) or within one Business Day after the termination of the Agreement (in the case of a termination by Parent).

(c) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(iii) (but no Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred) and prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly proposed, announced or disclosed and not irrevocably withdrawn, then (A) the Company shall pay Parent 25% of the Termination Fee

simultaneously with the termination of this Agreement (in the case of a termination by the Company) or within one Business Day after the termination of this Agreement (in the case of a termination by Parent) and (B) if the Company within 12 months after such termination either consummates an Acquisition Proposal or enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or its designees) the remaining 75% of the Termination Fee simultaneously with such consummation or entering into such definitive agreement, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 10.03(c), each reference to “20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a reference to “50%”.

(d) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 10.01(d)(ii), then, in advance of or concurrently with such termination, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent the Termination Fee.

(e) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(i), Section 10.01(b)(ii) (solely in respect of an Order in respect of the matters contemplated by clauses (x) through (z) of the first sentence of Section 8.01(b)) or Section 10.01(d)(iii) and, at the time of such termination, (A) the condition set forth in Section 9.02(d) has not been satisfied and (B) the conditions set forth in Section 9.01 (other than the condition set forth in Section 9.01(b) solely in respect of an Applicable Law in respect of the matters contemplated by clauses (x) through (z) of the first sentence of Section 8.01(b)) and Section 9.02(a) through (c) have been satisfied (or in the case of conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, are capable of being satisfied if the Closing were to occur on the date of such termination), then Parent shall pay or cause to be paid $450,000,000 (the “Reverse Termination Fee”) to the Company as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within five Business Days following such termination); provided that no Reverse Termination Fee shall be payable by Parent pursuant to this Section 10.03(e) if the failure of the condition set forth in Section 9.02(d) to be satisfied is caused by the Company’s willful and intentional breach of Section 8.01.

(f) Any payment of the Termination Fee (or applicable portion thereof) or the Reverse Termination Fee shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Parent or the Company, as applicable.

(g) The parties agree and understand that (x) in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion (other than the allocation of the Termination Fee required by Section 10.03(c)) and in no event shall Parent and Merger Subsidiary be required to pay the Reverse Termination Fee on more than one occasion and (y) in no event shall Parent be entitled, pursuant to this Section 10.03, to receive an amount greater than the Termination Fee and in no event shall the Company be entitled, pursuant to this

Section 10.03, to receive an amount greater than the Reverse Termination Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in the case of fraud, (i) if Parent receives the Termination Fee from the Company pursuant to this Section 10.03 or if the Company receives the Reverse Termination Fee from Parent or Merger Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 10.03, such payment shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the receiving party against the paying party and its Subsidiaries and their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, managers, members, Affiliates and Representatives and none of the paying party, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, managers, members, Affiliates or Representatives shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) if (A) Parent or Merger Subsidiary receives any payments from the Company in respect of any breach of this Agreement and thereafter Parent receives the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 10.03 or (B) the Company receives any payments from Parent or Merger Subsidiary in respect of any breach of this Agreement and thereafter the Company receives the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 10.03, the amount of such Termination Fee or Reverse Termination Fee, as applicable, shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such payments made by the party paying the Termination Fee or Reverse Termination fee, as applicable, in respect of any such breaches. The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 10.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby, that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement and that any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.03 do not constitute a penalty. Accordingly, if any party fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 10.03, such party shall also pay any costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by the party entitled to such payment in connection with a legal action to enforce this Agreement that results in a judgment for such amount against the party failing to promptly pay such amount. Any amount not paid when due pursuant to this Section 10.03 shall bear interest from the date such amount is due until the date paid at a rate equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition in effect on the date of such payment.

(b) The parties hereto agree that in no event shall any disclosure contained in any part of any Company SEC Document or Parent SEC Document entitled “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” or “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” or containing a description or explanation of “Forward-Looking Statements” or any other disclosures in any Company SEC Document or Parent SEC Document that are cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature be deemed to be an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) any representations and warranties of any party contained in this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
