WHEREAS, as an inducement and condition for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Stockholder has agreed to enter into this Agreement with respect to the Stockholder’s Covered Shares.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth below and for other good and valuable

consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. When used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings assigned to them in this Section 1.

“Expiration Time” shall mean such date and time as this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 12.16 hereof.

“Transfer” shall mean (a) any direct or indirect offer, sale, assignment, encumbrance, pledge, gift, assign, hedge, hypothecation, disposition, loan or other transfer, or entry into any option or other Contract, arrangement or understanding with respect to any offer, sale, assignment, encumbrance, pledge, hypothecation, disposition (whether by sale, liquidation, dissolution, dividend or distribution) or other transfer (by merger, consolidation, division, conversion, operation of Law or otherwise), of any Covered Shares or any interest in any Covered Shares (in each case other than this Agreement), (b) the deposit of such Covered Shares into a voting trust, the entry into a voting agreement or arrangement (other than this Agreement) with respect to such Covered Shares or the grant of any proxy or power of attorney with respect to such Covered Shares, except for the grant of a proxy to a director or officer of the Company in connection with any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, including as contemplated in Section 3.1 of this Agreement or (c) any Contract or commitment (whether or not in writing) to take any of the actions referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) or (b) above.

2. Agreement to Not Transfer the Covered Shares. Until the Expiration Time, the Stockholder agrees not to Transfer or cause or permit the Transfer of any of the Stockholder’s Covered Shares, or take any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or materially delay the Contemplated Transactions, in each case, other than with the prior written consent of Parent; provided, however, that [(i)] any Stockholder may Transfer any such Covered Shares to (a) any Affiliate of the Stockholder or (b) any beneficial owner of the Stockholder, in each case, only if the transferee of such Covered Shares evidences in a writing reasonably satisfactory to Parent such transferee’s agreement to be bound by and subject to the terms and provisions hereof to the same effect as such transferring Stockholder[, and (ii) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any transaction involving the Stockholder (including any transfer of the Stockholder’s equity and including any change of control of the Stockholder (whether by merger, stock sale or otherwise)) that is not a direct transfer of Covered Shares shall under no circumstances constitute a Transfer under this Agreement or otherwise be restricted by this Section 2; provided that the Stockholder’s obligations hereunder shall survive such transaction in accordance with the terms of this Agreement].

The Conditional Proxy shall not be terminated by operation of any Law or upon the occurrence of any other event other than upon the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.16, at which time any such proxy shall terminate. Parent may terminate the Conditional Proxy with respect to the Stockholder at any time in its sole and absolute discretion by written notice provided to the Stockholder. The Stockholder agrees to execute any further agreement or form reasonably necessary or appropriate to confirm and effectuate the grant of the Conditional Proxy contained herein and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by the Stockholder with respect to the Covered Shares that covers matters addressed by this Agreement.

5. Waiver of Appraisal Rights and Certain Other Actions. The Stockholder hereby waives all appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to all of the Stockholder’s Covered Shares owned (beneficially or of record) by the Stockholder with respect to the Merger and the Contemplated Transactions. In addition, the Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, any class action with respect to, any legal action, derivative or otherwise, against Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or successors: (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the Closing) or (b) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, alleging a breach of any duty of the Company Board or Parent in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby.

(a) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the rights of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party hereto or thereto, money damages may be inadequate, and the non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at Law. Accordingly, the parties agree that each such non-breaching party hereto shall have the right to enforce their rights and the other party’s obligations hereunder by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security).

(b) All Actions arising from, under or in connection with this Agreement shall be raised to and exclusively determined by the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, each such court to whose jurisdiction and venue the parties unconditionally consent and submit. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such Action in such court and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 12.5 shall be effective service of process for any Action brought against such party in any such court.

12.7 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MERGER. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.7.

-11-

respect to the subject matter hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to amend, alter or modify, in any respect, any of the provisions of the Merger Agreement.

12.9 Reliance. The Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent and Merger Sub are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

12.10 Interpretation. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, any reference in this Agreement to $ means U.S. dollars. Any reference in this Agreement to gender shall include all genders, and words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

12.11 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of each of the other parties.

12.12 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will be enforced so as to conform to the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

12.13 Counterparts.
