Section 2.05    Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock of the Company and Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any securities of the Company or Merger Sub:
(a)    All shares of Company Stock that are owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent, the Company (including shares held as treasury stock or otherwise) or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

9



(b)    Each share of Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.05(a)) shall at the Effective Time be converted into the right to receive 0.215 (the “Exchange Ratio”) shares of Parent Stock (the “Merger Consideration”), less any withholding in accordance with Section 2.08(i).
(c)    As of the Effective Time, all shares of Company Stock converted into the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of (i) a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Stock (a “Certificate”) or (ii) shares of Company Stock held in book-entry form (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Stock.
(d)    Each share of capital stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
Section 2.06    Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (a) the Effective Time or (b) any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 10, the outstanding shares of Company Stock or Parent Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment, or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of Company Stock (including Company Stock Options exercisable for Company Stock) the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.06 shall be construed to permit any Party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.
Section 2.07    No Fractional Shares.
(a)    No fractional shares of Parent Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Stock shall be delivered upon the conversion of Company Stock pursuant to Section 2.05 and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of shares of Parent Stock. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Stock (after aggregating all shares of Company Stock represented by Certificates or Book-Entry Shares held by such holder) will be paid an amount in cash (without interest) equal to an amount representing such holder’s proportionate interest in the net proceeds from the sale by the Exchange Agent on behalf of all such holders of the shares of Parent Stock that would otherwise be issued to such holders pursuant to Section 2.07(b).

10



(b)    As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (i) the number of whole shares of Parent Stock issued and delivered to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.08(a) representing the Merger Consideration over (ii) the aggregate number of whole shares of Parent Stock to be distributed to former holders of Company Stock pursuant to Section 2.08 (such excess, the “Parent Excess Shares”). Following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall, on behalf of former holders of Company Stock, sell the Parent Excess Shares at the then-prevailing prices on the NYSE. The sale of the Parent Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NYSE through one or more member firms of the NYSE and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. The Exchange Agent shall use its reasonable best efforts to complete the sale of the Parent Excess Shares as promptly following the Effective Time as is practicable, consistent with obtaining the best execution of such sales in light of prevailing market conditions. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares formerly representing Company Stock, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for holders of Company Stock (the “Parent Shares Trust”). The amount of all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, including the expenses and compensation of the Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale of Parent Excess Shares shall be paid by the Company. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the Parent Shares Trust to which each former holder of Company Stock is entitled, if any, by multiplying that amount of the aggregate net proceeds composing the Parent Shares Trust by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such former holder of Company Stock is entitled (after taking into account all shares of Parent Stock held as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all former holders of Company Stock are entitled (such product being the “Fractional Share Cash Amount”).
(c)    As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares formerly representing Company Stock with respect to any fractional share interest, the Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares.
Section 2.08    Payment of Merger Consideration. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into a customary exchange agreement with a nationally recognized financial institution designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), and shall deposit with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company evidence of Parent Stock in book-entry form (and/or certificates representing such Parent Stock, at Parent’s election) representing the aggregate amount of shares of Parent Stock sufficient to deliver the Merger Consideration (such shares, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, hereinafter referred to as the “Merger Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration to be issued pursuant to Section 2.05 out of the Merger Fund. Except as provided in Section 2.08(h), the Merger Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.
(b)    Payment Procedures.
(i)    Certificates. Parent shall instruct the Exchange Agent to mail, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the second

11



Business Day following the Closing Date, to each holder of record of a Certificate whose shares of Company Stock were converted into the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.05, (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall be in customary form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration, the Fractional Share Cash Amount and any dividends or other distributions to which such Certificates become entitled in accordance with Section 2.08(d) (the “Exchanged Amounts”). Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver in exchange thereof as promptly as practicable, the aggregate Exchanged Amounts in respect thereof, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.
(ii)    Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Exchanged Amounts that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article 2. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose shares of Company Stock were converted into the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.05 shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver, the Exchanged Amounts as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon conversion of any Book-Entry Shares.
(c)    The Exchanged Amounts paid in accordance with the terms of this Article 2 upon the surrender of the Certificates (or, immediately, in the case of the Book-Entry Shares) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Stock. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Company Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article 2.
(d)    No dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered share of Company Stock until such holder shall surrender such share in accordance with this Section 2.08. After the surrender in accordance with this Section 2.08 of a share of Company Stock to be converted into the right to receive shares of Parent Stock pursuant to Section 2.05,

12



the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive (in addition to the Merger Consideration and the Fractional Share Cash Amount payable to such holder pursuant to Section 2.07) any such dividends or other distributions, without interest thereon, which had become payable with respect to the Parent Stock issuable in respect of such share of Company Stock.
(e)    Any portion of the Merger Fund that remains undistributed to the former holders of Company Stock for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any former holder of Company Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article 2 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of its claim for the Exchanged Amounts.
(f)    None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any amount delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by former holders of Company Stock immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.
(g)    If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in reasonable amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue the Merger Consideration in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate.
(h)    The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Merger Fund as directed by Parent; provided, that no such investment income or gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Company Stock. Any interest, gains and other income resulting from such investments shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent payable to Parent upon its request, and no part of such interest, gains and other income shall accrue to the benefit of holders of Company Stock; provided, that any investment of such cash shall in all events be limited to direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government, in commercial paper rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available), and that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Company Stock pursuant to this Article 2. If for any reason (including losses) the cash in the Merger Fund shall be insufficient to fully satisfy all of the payment obligations to be made in cash by the Exchange Agent hereunder, Parent shall promptly deposit cash into the Merger Fund in an amount equal to the deficiency in the amount of cash required to fully satisfy such cash payment obligations.

13



(i)    Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment otherwise payable hereunder such amounts as Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. Amounts so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.
Section 2.09    Further Assurances. If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall determine that any actions are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of either of the Company or Merger Sub acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, then the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to take all such actions as may be necessary or desirable to vest all right, title or interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.
Section 2.10    Company Stock Options; Company Restricted Shares; Company RSUs; Company PSUs. (a) Company Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each compensatory option to purchase shares of Company Stock (a “Company Stock Option”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, (i) if such Company Stock Option is a Specified Award, become vested and exercisable in full and (ii) be converted into an option (an “Adjusted Stock Option”) to purchase, on the same terms and conditions (except that the additional vesting and exercise provisions set forth on Section 2.10 of the Company Disclosure Letter shall apply to such Adjusted Stock Option) as were applicable under such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of Parent Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares) equal to the product of (i) the Exchange Ratio multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (with such number determined by deeming any applicable performance conditions to be satisfied in full), at an exercise price per share of Parent Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (B) the Exchange Ratio.
(b)    Company Restricted Shares. At the Effective Time, each share of Company Stock subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse restrictions granted pursuant to a compensatory award (a “Company Restricted Share”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall vest in full and become free of restrictions, and any repurchase rights shall lapse, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration (subject to Section 2.07 and Section 2.08(d)) with respect to each such Company Restricted Share, less any applicable Taxes required to be withheld as provided in Section 2.08(i).
(c)    Company RSUs and Company PSUs.

14



(i)    At the Effective Time, each Company RSU and each Company PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is not a Specified Award shall be converted into a restricted stock unit award (an “Adjusted RSU”) with the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding Company RSU or Company PSU, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that (i) no performance-based vesting condition shall apply to such Adjusted RSU and (ii) the additional vesting provisions set forth on Section 2.10 of the Company Disclosure Letter shall apply to such Adjusted RSU) and relating to the number of shares of Parent Stock, rounded to the nearest whole number of shares, determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock subject to the Company RSU or Company PSU, as applicable, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (with such number of shares determined, for purposes of each Company PSU, by deeming the applicable performance-based vesting condition to be achieved at the maximum level) by the Exchange Ratio.
(ii)    At the Effective Time, each Company RSU and each Company PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is a Specified Award shall vest in full (and in the case of a Company PSU, the applicable performance-based vesting condition shall be deemed to be achieved at the maximum level), and the holder of each such Company RSU and Company PSU shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Parent Stock (rounded to the nearest whole number of shares) equal to the product of (i) the Exchange Ratio, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to such Company RSU or Company PSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (with such number of shares determined, for purposes of each Company PSU, by deeming the applicable performance-based vesting condition to be achieved at the maximum level), less any applicable Taxes required to be withheld as provided in Section 2.08(i).
(d)    Company Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board or its Compensation Committee shall adopt resolutions approving the treatment of the Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Shares, Company RSUs and Company PSUs (collectively, the “Company Stock Awards”) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.10.
(e)    Promptly following the Closing, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act on an appropriate form, or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the Securities Act, with respect to the shares of Parent Stock subject to the Adjusted Options and the Adjusted RSUs.

The Company has all corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, except where any failure to have such power or authority or to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Stock (the “Company Stockholder Approval”) is the only vote of the holders of any of the Company’s capital stock necessary in connection with the consummation of the Merger. This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law).

17



Section 4.04    Non-contravention. Except as set forth on Section 4.04 of the Company Disclosure Letter, the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger by the Company do not and will not, assuming the authorizations, consents and approvals referred to in Section 4.03 are obtained, (i) contravene, conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, (ii) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of (A) any Law or (B) any order, writ, decree, consent decree, judgment, award, injunction, settlement or stipulation issued, promulgated, made, rendered or entered into by or with any Governmental Authority (in each case, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) (any of the foregoing described by clause (B), an “Order”), (iii) require any consent or other action by any Person under, constitute a default or a violation, or an event that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or a violation, under or of, or cause or permit the termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation under, any provision of any agreement, arrangement, contract, understanding, instrument, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, lease, license or other commitment, whether written or oral (a “Contract”) binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any license, franchise, permit, certificate, approval or other similar authorization affecting, or relating in any way to, the assets or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien, other than any Permitted Lien, on any asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except, in the case of each of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), which have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

All outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company have been, and all shares that may be issued pursuant to any equity compensation plan or arrangement will be, when issued in accordance with the respective terms thereof, duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. No Subsidiary of the Company owns any shares of capital stock of the Company or any Company Securities. There are no outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of the Company having the right to vote (whether on an as-converted basis or otherwise) (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which stockholders of the Company may vote.
Section 4.06    Subsidiaries. (a) Each Subsidiary of the Company is an entity duly incorporated or otherwise duly organized, validly existing and (where applicable or recognized) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, except, in the case of any such Subsidiary, where the failure to be so incorporated, organized, existing or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each Subsidiary of the Company has all corporate, limited liability company or comparable powers and all Governmental Authorizations required to carry on its business as now conducted, except for those powers or Governmental Authorizations the absence of which has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, except for those jurisdictions where failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b)    Except as set forth on Section 4.06(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, all of the outstanding capital stock or other voting securities of or other ownership interests in each Subsidiary of the Company, are owned by the Company, directly or indirectly, free and clear of any lien, pledge, claim, charge, mortgage, deeds of trust, right of first offer or first refusals, options, security interest, encumbrance or security interests of any kind (collectively, “Liens”) and free of any other limitation or restriction (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such capital stock or other voting securities or other ownership interests), in each case other than Permitted Liens.

19

(b)    Parent has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information (both financial and non-financial) relating to Parent, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is made known to Parent’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others within those entities, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared. For purposes of this Agreement, “principal executive officer” and “principal financial officer” shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

42



(c)    Parent and its Subsidiaries have established and maintained a system of internal controls.

(h)    Since the Parent Balance Sheet Date, there has been no transaction, or series of similar transactions, agreements, arrangements or understandings, nor is there any proposed transaction as of the date of this Agreement, or series of similar transactions, agreements, arrangements or understandings to which Parent or any of its Subsidiaries was or is to be a party, that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act that has not been disclosed in Parent’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on August 7, 2015 or other Parent SEC Documents filed prior to the date of this Agreement.

Section 5.09    Disclosure Documents. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement or the Joint Proxy Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, at the time the Joint Proxy Statement is first mailed to the Company’s stockholders or Parent’s stockholders, at the time of any amendment or supplement thereto, or at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting or the Parent Stockholder Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement (other than the portions of the Joint Proxy Statement relating to the Company Stockholder Meeting) will comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.

At the Company’s option, the Company may purchase, prior to the Effective Time, a prepaid “tail policy” for a period beginning at the Effective Time and ending no later than six (6) years after the Effective Time with coverage for the persons who are covered by the Company’s existing D&O Insurance, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the insured individuals as the Company’s existing D&O Insurance with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, in which event Parent shall cease to have any obligations under the first sentence of this Section 7.04(c); provided that the aggregate premium for such policies shall not exceed the Premium Cap. If the Company elects to purchase such a “tail policy,” the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail policy” in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder.

(e)    The provisions of this Section 7.04 shall survive consummation of the Merger, are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified or insured person hereunder (including the Company Indemnified Parties), his or her heirs and his or her representatives and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by Contract, at Law or otherwise.

(b)    In addition, upon a termination of employment during the Continuation Period, the Continuing Employees shall be eligible to receive severance compensation and benefits under the applicable severance plan, policy or program maintained by Parent and its Subsidiaries on the same basis, and pursuant to the same terms and conditions, as similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries. Section 7.06(b) of the Parent Disclosure Letter sets forth Parent’s severance plan maintained for individuals employed by Parent and situated in the United States.
(c)    Following the Effective Time, Parent shall recognize, or shall cause its Subsidiaries (including, for the avoidance of doubt the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) to recognize, for all purposes, including eligibility to participate, vesting and benefit accrual, under all Company Plans and any “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Parent Plans”) in which the Continuing Employees become eligible to participate, each Continuing Employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Subsidiary) prior to the Effective Time to the same extent that such service is recognized by the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time; provided, that Parent shall not be required to provide credit for benefit accrual purposes under any Parent Plan that is a defined benefit pension plan or retiree medical plan. In addition with respect to each Parent Plan in which a Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate after the Effective Time, Parent shall (i) waive, or caused to be waived, all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee under such Parent Plan and (ii) provide such Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments, deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses already incurred by the Continuing Employee under the corresponding Company Plan during the year in which such Continuing Employee first becomes eligible to participate in such Parent Plan in satisfying any applicable co-payment or deductible requirements or out-of-pocket maximums under such Parent Plan.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to any Continuing Employees who are based outside of the United States, Parent’s obligations under this Section 7.06 shall be in addition to and not in contravention of any obligations under the Laws of the foreign countries and political subdivisions thereof in which such Continuing Employees are based.
(e)    Nothing contained in this Section 7.06, expressed or implied, shall (i) be treated as the establishment, amendment or modification of any Company Plan or Parent Plan or

55



constitute a limitation on rights to amend, modify, merge or terminate after the Effective Time any Company Plan or Parent Plan, (ii) give any current or former employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) or any other Person who is not a party to this Agreement any third-party beneficiary or other rights or (iii) obligate Parent or any of its Affiliates to (A) maintain any particular Company Plan or Parent Plan or (B) retain the employment or services of any current or former employee.

(i)    the Company Board shall provide Parent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall include, in the case of Section 8.03(b)(I), the information with respect to the Company Superior Proposal that is specified in Section 8.03(c) as well as a copy of such Company Acquisition Proposal, or, in the case of Section 8.03(b)(II), the reasons underlying the Company Board’s decision to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change; and

hereto. Signatures delivered electronically or by facsimile shall be deemed to be original signatures.
Section 11.08    Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto and the documents and the instruments referred to herein), the Disclosure Letters, the Confidentiality Agreements and any agreements entered into contemporaneously herewith (a) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and (b) are not intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities upon any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing clause (b), (i) following the Effective Time, the provisions of Article 2 with respect to the holders of Company Stock to receive the Merger Consideration shall be enforceable by such holders and (ii) the provisions of Section 7.04 shall be enforceable by each Party entitled to indemnification hereunder and his or her heirs and his or her representatives.
Section 11.09    Severability.

Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Merger be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section 11.10    Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties hereto in whole or in part (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided, that Merger Sub may assign, by written notice to the Company, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to another wholly owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent, in which event all references herein to Merger Sub shall be deemed references to such other Subsidiary (except with respect to representations and warranties made herein with respect to Merger Sub as of the date of this Agreement) and all representations and warranties made herein with respect to Merger Sub as of the date of this Agreement shall also be made with respect to such other Subsidiary as of the date of such designation; provided, that such assignment shall not relieve Parent of its obligations hereunder or otherwise enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any other party hereto or due to Parent or such other Subsidiary. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
