NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1. Board Matters. (a) As promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company and the Engaged Group shall cooperate in good faith to select a mutually agreed-upon director nominee (the Agreed Nominee) as soon as possible but in any event no later than forty-five (45) days from the date of this Agreement. Any person selected as the Agreed Nominee shall be independent of each of the Company and the Engaged Group and its Affiliates and Associates, including qualifying as independent pursuant to NASDAQ listing standards, and shall satisfy each of the other criteria and requirements set forth in Section 1(f) hereof.
(b) The Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all action necessary to appoint the Agreed Nominee to the Board to serve as a director of the Company, subject to the terms of this Agreement, by increasing the size of the Board from nine (9) directors to ten (10) directors, and appointing the Agreed Nominee to fill such resulting vacancy; provided, that the Company shall not be required to take such action to increase the size of the
Board or to appoint the Agreed Nominee to the Board if the Engaged Group does not at the time of such actions collectively Beneficially Own one percent (1%) or more of the outstanding Voting Securities (as defined below) (such percentage, the Minimum Interest).
(c) The Board and all applicable committees of the Board agree to take all necessary actions to nominate the Agreed Nominee at the 2016 Annual Meeting to serve as a director of the Board with a term expiring at the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the 2019 Annual Meeting) and shall recommend that the Companys stockholders vote in favor of the Agreed Nominee at the 2016 Annual Meeting and otherwise solicit proxies for his or her election in the same manners as for all other persons on the Companys slate of director nominees; provided, that the Company shall not be required to take such action to nominate the Agreed Nominee or recommend a vote in favor of the Agreed Nominee if the Engaged Group does not at the time of such actions collectively Beneficially Own the Minimum Interest.
(d) Each of the Investors agrees not to nominate any person for election to the Board at the 2016 Annual Meeting or submit any stockholder proposal for consideration at the 2016 Annual Meeting. At the 2016 Annual Meeting, each of the Investors agrees to appear in person or by proxy and to vote all of the Voting Securities it Beneficially Owns in favor of the election of the Companys slate of director nominees and to vote in accordance with the Boards recommendation with respect to any stockholder proposals or other business presented at the 2016 Annual Meeting.
(e) The Company agrees that if the Agreed Nominee (including any substitute person recommended pursuant to this Section 1(e)) is (i) unable to serve as a director, resigns as a director or is removed as a director without cause prior to the end of the Restricted Period (as defined below) and (ii) at that time the Engaged Group collectively Beneficially Owns at least the Minimum Interest, then the Company and the Engaged Group shall cooperate in good faith to select a mutually agreed-upon substitute person for appointment or election to the Board subject to review and approval by the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (the Nominating Committee) and shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Engaged Group; provided, that any such substitute person shall qualify as independent pursuant to NASDAQ listing standards (or other securities exchange on which the Companys securities may then be traded), and shall satisfy each of the other criteria and requirements set forth in Section 1(f) hereof. Upon the acceptance of a replacement director nominee by the Nominating Committee, the Board will take such actions as necessary to appoint such replacement director to the Board no later than five (5) business days after the Nominating Committees recommendation of such replacement director.
(f) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Agreed Nominee (and each substitute person recommended pursuant to Section 1(e) hereof) shall be required to: (i) comply with the Companys Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct and Business Ethics Policy, including all policies, procedures, processes, codes, rules, standards and guidelines applicable to members of the Board, including all applicable conflict of interest, confidentiality, stock ownership, insider trading and corporate governance policies, guidelines and manuals of the Company (the Governance Guidelines); (ii) not enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person (x) other than the Company with respect to any
2
direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director of the Company, (y) concerning how such Agreed Nominee, if elected as a director of the Company, will act or vote on any issue or question, or (z) that could limit or interfere with such Agreed Nominees ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Company, with such Agreed Nominees fiduciary duties under applicable law; (iii) keep confidential any and all information concerning or relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates or Associates, together with any notes, analyses, reports, models, compilations, studies, interpretations, documents, records or extracts thereof containing, referring, relating to, based upon or derived from such information, in whole or in part (collectively, Company Confidential Information) and not disclose to any third parties discussions or matters considered in meetings of the Board or Board committees; and (iv) complete the Companys standard director and officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director documentation (including a representation and agreement as contemplated by the Bylaws and the Governance Guidelines) required by the Company in connection with the election of Board members. Upon election to the Board, the Agreed Nominee will be subject to the same protections and obligations, and shall have the same rights and benefits, as are applicable to all other directors of the Company.
(g) The Company agrees that within three (3) days of appointing the Agreed Nominee to the Board, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all action necessary to form a strategy committee of the Board (the Business Strategy Committee), with such committee having five (5) total members, who shall be the Agreed Nominee, Ray Larkin, Stephen Oesterle, Timothy Barberich and Douglas Godshall. Ray Larkin, as Chairperson of the Board, shall serve as the Chairperson of the Business Strategy Committee. The Board will also agree on a charter to govern such Business Strategy Committee.

(iv) seek or encourage any Person to submit nominations in furtherance of a contested solicitation for the election or removal of directors with respect to the Company or seek, encourage or take any other action with respect to the election or removal of any directors or with respect to the submission of any stockholder proposal, except that this clause (iv) shall not limit the rights of the Engaged Group as expressly set forth in Section 1(e) of this Agreement;
