If Certificates are presented to the Company for transfer following the Effective Time, they shall be cancelled against delivery of the Merger Consideration for each share of Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate.

-11-

(d) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund and any interest received with respect thereto that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation. Any holders of Certificates who have not complied with this Section 2.7 prior to the end of such six (6) month period shall thereafter look, only as general creditors thereof, to the Surviving Corporation (subject to Section 2.7(e)) for payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock formerly represented by such Certificates.

(e) No Liability. None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Payment Fund properly delivered to a public official pursuant to the requirements of any applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Legal Requirement.

(f) Transfer Taxes. If payment is to be made in respect of any Certificate to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition of such payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Paying Agent any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the applicable consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered, or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(g) Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of a Certificate or Company Stock Option such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code (including under Section 1445 of the Code) or any provisions of applicable state, local or foreign Tax Legal Requirements. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Certificate or Company Stock Option as applicable, in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent.

(h) 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 or the Paying Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Agreement.

(i) Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. If prior to the Effective Time, (i) there is a change in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or issuable upon the

-12-

conversion, exchange or exercise of securities or rights convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock from that specified in Section 3.2 or (ii) the Company makes a cash dividend to all holders of Common Stock, then the Merger Consideration shall be correspondingly adjusted to provide the holders of the applicable shares of Common Stock the same economic effect contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 2.8 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a stockholder who has properly exercised such stockholder’s appraisal rights available under Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless and until such stockholder shall have failed to perfect, or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such stockholder’s right to appraisal under the DGCL. Dissenting Shares shall be treated in accordance with this Agreement and Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right to appraisal, such stockholder’s shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock shall thereupon be converted into and become exchangeable only for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration for each share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock formerly represented by the Certificates held by such stockholder without any interest thereon upon surrender of such Certificates in the manner provided in Section 2.7(b). The Company shall give Parent (a) reasonably prompt notice of any notices or demands for appraisal of any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights to be paid the “fair value” of Dissenting Shares, as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL and (b) the opportunity to participate at Parent’s own expense in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands or notices. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any notices or demands for appraisals, offer to settle or settle any demands or approve any withdrawal of any such notices or demands.

Section 2.9 Stock Options; ESPP.

(a) Each Company Stock Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, in connection with the Merger, be assumed by Parent. Each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any repurchase rights or vesting provisions), provided that (i) such Company Stock Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole common shares, no par value, of Parent (the “Parent Common Shares”) (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Merger Consideration and the denominator of which is the last closing price of a Parent Common Share on the Nasdaq National Market immediately preceding the Closing (the “Option Exchange Ratio”) and (B) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock

-13-

Option shall be equal to (i) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock applicable to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (ii) the Option Exchange Ratio.

(b) The Company shall terminate the ESPP in accordance with its terms as of or prior to the Effective Time.

(c) The Company shall cause all rights, stock options, warrants, conversion rights, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments to issue or sell any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any securities or obligations convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for, or giving any Person a right to subscribe for or acquire, any securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, other than Company Stock Options granted under the Company Stock Options Plans (which are to be treated in accordance with Section 2.9(a)) and the ESPP (which are to be treated in accordance with Section 2.9(b)), to be cancelled prior to the Effective Time without any payment being made therefor.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions that are necessary or appropriate to give effect to the transactions contemplated by Section 2.9(a) and Section 2.9(b). The Company agrees to take all actions necessary or advisable to cause all Company Stock Options to remain unchanged, except as provided herein.

(e) Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 for the Parent Common Shares issuable with respect to assumed Company Stock Options held by current employees as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time to the extent the Parent Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Options qualify for registration on Form S-8.

Section 2.10 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent to be reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the purpose of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

Each Company Benefit Plan, other than an individual agreement between the Company and an Employee, can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Closing Date in accordance with its terms, without material liability to the Company or Parent (other than ordinary administration expenses typically incurred in a termination event).

(d) Post-Termination Benefits Obligations. No Company Benefit Plan provides health benefits (whether or not insured), with respect to Employees after retirement or other termination of service (other than coverage mandated by applicable Legal Requirements or benefits, the full cost of which is borne by the Employee).

(e) Effect of Transaction. The execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (either alone or upon the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events) constitute an event under any Company Benefit Plan that will or may result in any material payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), or any acceleration of payment, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any Employee. There is no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement with an Employee to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party as of the date of this Agreement, that, individually or collectively and as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby (whether alone or upon the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events), would give rise to the payment of any amount that would not be deductible pursuant to Section 280G of the Code.

The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent and Parent (on behalf of itself and Merger Sub) shall give prompt notice to the Company, of the occurrence or non occurrence of (i) any event whose occurrence or non-occurrence, as the case may be, would reasonably be likely to cause or result in the conditions to closing set forth in either Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.3(a) not to be satisfied at the Closing or (ii) any failure of such party, as the case may be, to comply with or satisfy in all respects any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder that would reasonably be expected to cause or result in the conditions to closing set forth in either Section 6.2(b) or Section 6.3(b) not to be satisfied at the Closing; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice or the representations or warranties of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereto.

Section 5.11 Tax Filings. During the period from the date hereof to the Closing Date, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to: (i) timely file all Tax Returns (“Post-Signing Tax Returns”) required to be filed by the Company and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, and all such Post Signing Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, (ii) timely pay all Taxes due and payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries, respectively, and (iii) promptly notify Parent of any Tax Claims pending against or with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any significant developments with respect to ongoing Tax Claims).

Section 5.12 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) For a period of not fewer than six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent agrees, and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause, the Surviving Corporation (or any successor to the Surviving Corporation) to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the present and former officers and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and persons who become any of the foregoing prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and judgments, fines, losses, claims, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement (provided that any such settlement is effected with the written consent of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld)) arising out of or pertaining to actions, omissions or matters existing or occurring at, prior to or after the Effective Time to the fullest extent permissible under applicable provisions of the DGCL, the terms of the Company Charter Documents, the Subsidiary Charter Documents, and under any agreements as in effect at the date hereof (true and correct copies of which have been previously provided to Parent). From and after the Closing, the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to the exculpation and indemnifications than those set forth in the Company Charter Documents, and such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date in any manner that would materially adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Party; provided, however, that in the event any claim or claims are asserted or made within such six year period, all rights to indemnification in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue until disposition of any and all such claims.

(b) Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall maintain the Company’s existing officers’ and directors’ liability insurance covering those officers, directors and other persons that are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (“D&O Insurance”) for a period of not fewer than six (6) years after the Effective Time; provided, however, that Parent may substitute therefor policies of substantially equivalent coverage and amounts containing terms no less favorable to such former directors, officers or other persons; provided, further, that if the existing D&O Insurance expires or is terminated or cancelled during such period, then Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain substantially similar D&O Insurance; provided, further, that in no event shall Parent be required to pay annual premiums for insurance under this Section 5.12(b) in excess of 250% of the annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance coverage (the sum of such six (6) years of annual premiums, the “Maximum D&O Premium”); and provided, further, that if Parent or the Surviving Corporation is unable to obtain the amount of insurance required by this Section 5.12(b) for such aggregate premium, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall obtain as much insurance (up to the amount of insurance required by this Section 5.12(b)) as can be obtained for the Maximum D&O Premium. In lieu of the foregoing, the Surviving Corporation may obtain a “tail” policy of substantially equivalent coverage and amounts containing terms no less favorable to such former directors, officers or other persons covering events occurring at, prior to or after the

-59-

Effective Time for a period of not fewer than six (6) years after the Effective Time at a cost not to exceed the Maximum D&O Premium.

(c) In the event that Parent, the Surviving Corporation, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective, successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity 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, proper provision will be made so that the successors and assigns of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any such Subsidiary shall succeed to and assume the obligations thereof set forth in this Section 5.12.

(d) The provisions of this Section 5.12 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current and former officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company and its Subsidiaries by Legal Requirements, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the D&O Indemnified Parties, their heirs and personal representatives and shall be binding on the Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 5.13 State Takeover Laws. If any state takeover statute becomes or is deemed to become applicable to the Company, this Agreement or the Merger, then Parent, the Company and their respective boards of directors shall take all action reasonably necessary to render such statute inapplicable to the foregoing.

Section 5.14 Certain Actions and Proceedings. Until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1, Parent shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in (but not control or direct) the defense or settlement of any action, suit or proceeding instituted against the Company (or any of its directors or officers) before any court or Governmental Entity or threatened by any Governmental Entity or any third party, including a Company shareholder, to restrain, modify or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or to seek damages or a discovery order in connection with such transactions.

Section 5.15 Section 16(b). Each of Parent and the Company shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 5.16 Financing.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, provide on a timely basis all such assistance and cooperation as Parent may reasonably request in connection with any third party financing that Parent determines to seek in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (a “Financing”) (provided, that such requested assistance and cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing

-60-

operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries), including (i) making senior management of the Company reasonably available for customary lender meetings and “roadshow” presentations and cooperating with prospective lenders in performing their due diligence; (ii) cooperating in the preparation of any offering memorandum or similar document; (iii) furnishing Parent and its financing sources with financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Parent, including financial statements and financial data; and (iv) providing and executing documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent; provided, that none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or incur any other liability in connection with any Financing prior to the Closing and Parent shall promptly, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket third party costs incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation.

Section 5.17 Ulead. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the acquisition of Ulead Systems Co. Ltd. (“Ulead”) by the Company.

(a) at any time prior to the Closing:

(i) by mutual written consent of Parent and the Company;

(ii) by Parent or the Company if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before February 26, 2007; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(a)(ii) shall not be available to any party whose

-63-

failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date;

(iii) by Parent or the Company, if any Legal Requirement makes consummation of the Merger illegal or otherwise permanently prohibited or any Governmental Entity shall have issued a Governmental Order permanently enjoining or otherwise permanently prohibiting the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and such Governmental Order shall have become final and nonappealable;

(iv) by Parent or the Company, if there shall have been a material breach by the other of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) or (b) (in the case of a breach by the Company) or Sections 6.3(a) or (b) (in the case of a breach by Parent or Merger Sub), and such breach shall be incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof shall have been received by the party alleged to be in breach; provided, at the time of the delivery of such written notice, the party delivering such written notice shall not be in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement;

For the purposes of any representation or warranty of this Agreement qualified by knowledge, if the Company does not have knowledge of a breach thereof on the date hereof, the fact that it or the Parent, or circumstances show that, subsequently has such knowledge, or such representation or warranty proves to be inaccurate, shall not, in and of itself, be deemed or be a

-64-

willful breach of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a breach of Section 3.8(c)(ii) or (iii) may not be considered willful if the Company did not have knowledge of such breach as of the date hereof.

(c) Without limiting the Parent’s right under Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b), in the event that (i) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(b) and (ii) after the date hereof and prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting, (x) a bona fide Company Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced or disclosed and such proposal shall not have been withdrawn as of or prior to ten calendar days prior to the date of the Company Stockholders Meeting (y) within twelve (12) months of such termination, the Company shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to, or the Company shall have consummated, an Acquisition, upon the earlier of the execution of a definitive agreement with respect to, or the consummation of such transaction, an amount equal to (i) the Termination Fee plus (ii) the Parent Expenses, to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 7.2(d).

shall be made not more than two (2) Business Days after the satisfaction of the conditions provided for in Section 7.3(c), and (iv) Section 7.3(d) shall be made concurrently with the termination giving rise to the payments provided for in Section 7.3(d). All payments under this Section 7.3 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the party entitled to receive payment. No payment under this Section 7.3 shall limit in any respect any rights or remedies available to Parent and Merger Sub relating to any breach or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement resulting, directly or indirectly, in the right to receive any payment under this Section 7.3.

(f) Parent and the Company acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 7.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, Parent would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails promptly to pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 7.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit which results in a judgment against the Company for the amount set forth in this Section 7.3, such non-prevailing party shall pay to the prevailing party its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the fee at the prime rate of Citibank N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. Except as set forth in this Section 7.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses whether or not the Merger is consummated; provided, however, that Parent shall bear the filing fee for the Notification and Report Forms filed with the FTC and DOJ under the HSR Act and premerger notification and reports forms under similar applicable laws of other jurisdictions where Parent is statutorily obligated to pay such fees, in each case pursuant to Section 5.5.

(g) For the purposes of this Section 7.3 only, “Acquisition,” with respect to a party hereto, shall mean any of the following transactions (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement): (i) a merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the party pursuant to which the equity interests held in such party and retained following such transaction or issued to or otherwise received in such transaction by the stockholders of the party immediately preceding such transaction constitute less than 50% of the aggregate equity interests in the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction or any direct or indirect parent thereof, (ii) a sale or other disposition by the party of assets representing in excess of 50% of the aggregate fair market value of the party’s business immediately prior to such sale, or (iii) the acquisition by any Person or group (including by way of a tender offer or an exchange offer or issuance by the party or such Person or group), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership or a right to acquire beneficial ownership of shares representing in excess of 50% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the party.

Any such structural change shall not affect the accuracy (whether as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date) of the Company’s representations and warranties hereunder, which are made under the assumption that the transaction is structured as a reverse triangular merger as set forth in Section 2.1, if such representations and warranties, but for the structural change, would have been accurate as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date.
