(a) Common Stock. Each Company Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding Dissenting Shares, if any) shall be converted, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into the right to receive (without interest, and subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) the Common Per Share Consideration comprising (i) an amount in cash equal to the Common Per Share Cash Consideration plus (ii) a number of Buyer Common Shares equal to the Common Per Share Stock Consideration, and all Company Common Shares, if any, owned by the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; and

2.10 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Company Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such Company Common Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (such Company Common Shares being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such Company Common Shares) shall not be converted into a right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration, but shall be canceled and shall cease to exist and shall instead represent the right only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such Company Common Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, if any, to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.8, without interest thereon.

The amount of Cash Merger Consideration that each Company Stockholder is entitled to receive shall be rounded to the nearest cent (with $0.005 being rounded upward) and computed after aggregating the cash amounts payable at such time for all issued and outstanding Company Common Shares held by such Company Stockholder. No fractional Buyer Common Shares shall be issued, and no cash payment in lieu of any fractional share shall be paid to any Company Stockholder in connection with the Merger. Any fraction of a Buyer Common Share shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Company agrees that, subject to Sections 2.11(c) and 2.16, Buyer may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon the information contained in the Closing Statement for purposes of payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to this ARTICLE II.

In the event Buyer notifies the Company prior to the Closing that it disputes any amount set forth in the Closing Statement, the Company shall correct any manifest computational error in the Closing Statement and shall cooperate with Buyer in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable prior to the Closing; provided, that the Closing shall not be delayed in the event of any such dispute and the Closing Statement as delivered by the Company shall be the basis for payments required at the Closing with respect to any such dispute that is not resolved. No failure by Buyer to dispute any portion of the Closing Statement prior to the Closing shall be considered agreement with the relevant amount set forth therein for purposes of preparing the Final Closing Statement or any component thereof.

2.12 Funding of Escrow Amount.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Buyer, the Stockholders’ Agent and the Escrow Agent shall enter into an escrow agreement to provide for the escrow and distribution of the Cash Merger Consideration as set forth in this Agreement, which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the parties thereto and contain certain provisions typical and customary for escrow agreements with respect to similar transactions (the “Escrow Agreement”).

(b) The Cash Merger Consideration payable to each Company Stockholder as set forth in the Closing Statement shall be reduced by such Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Amount.

At or prior to the Effective Time, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Paying Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to permit the payment of the Cash Merger Consideration for the benefit from and after the Effective Time of the Persons that are Company Stockholders immediately prior to the Effective Time less the Escrow Amount (which shall be transferred to the Escrow Agent by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.12(c)).

(c) Issuance and Delivery of Stock Merger Consideration. All Buyer Common Shares to be issued as part of the Stock Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.8 shall be delivered in book-entry form unless otherwise agreed to by Buyer and the recipient thereof, and such issuance and transfer of ownership of such Buyer Common Shares shall be evidenced by delivery of such shares to the applicable holder by way of book-entry transfer recorded in the stock register of Buyer.

(d) Certificate; Book-Entry Share. At the Effective Time, all Company Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and, subject to Section 2.10, each holder of (i) a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any outstanding Company Common Shares (each, a “Certificate”) or (ii) book-entry share registered in the stock register of the Company (a “Book-Entry Share”) shall cease to have any rights as Company Stockholder other than as set forth herein.

(e) Exchange Procedures.

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Buyer or Paying Agent, as applicable, shall mail or otherwise deliver to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share (A) a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Letter of Transmittal”), (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the applicable portion of Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.8, and (C) any other customary documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions.

(ii) Buyer shall, or shall cause the Paying Agent to, no later than the later of the Closing Date or three (3) Business Days after receipt of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and any other customary documents that the Paying Agent may reasonably require in connection therewith, (A) pay to the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share the applicable portion of Cash Merger Consideration in accordance with Sections 2.8 and 2.12(a) and (B) issue to the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share the applicable portion of the Stock Merger Consideration in accordance with to Section 2.8, in each case, with respect to such Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall forthwith be cancelled.

(iii) No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on any Merger Consideration payable upon surrender of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate or Book-Entry Share that prior to the Effective Time represented Company Common Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all purposes, to evidence the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.8. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Paying Agent after the Effective Time, it shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Section 2.13(e).

(f) Payment to Other Persons. 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 Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Paying Agent any Transfer Tax or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

Any portion of the Merger Consideration that remains unclaimed by the Company Stockholders six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Buyer, upon demand, and any such Company Stockholder who has not exchanged Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the applicable portion of Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.13 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Buyer for payment of the applicable Merger Consideration; provided, that any such portion of the Merger Consideration payable from the Escrow Funds shall be held and distributed to the Persons entitled thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, at the respective times and subject to the contingencies specified herein and therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be liable to any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by Company Stockholders two (2) years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date, 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 Buyer free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(h) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Shares. The applicable portion of the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Common Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, subject to the right to receive distributions of the Escrow Funds pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. As of the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfer of Company Common Shares on the stock register of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Share are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this ARTICLE II.

(i) 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 Buyer, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Buyer 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 applicable portion of the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Company Common Shares formerly represented by such Certificate as contemplated under this ARTICLE II.

(j) Investment of Funds. The Paying Agent may invest any funds held by it for purposes of this ARTICLE II as directed by Buyer; provided, that following any loss thereon Buyer immediately shall deposit funds with the Paying Agent equal to the amount of such loss. Buyer shall be entitled to retain any investment income received from any such funds.

2.14 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the Agreement Date and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company shall occur, including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

2.15 Withholding Rights. In the event Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation reasonably determines that amounts are required to be deducted or withheld from any payments under applicable Tax Law, Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub, or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall notify the Company and the Stockholders’ Agent of such potential withholding five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, which notice shall include the amount and the reason for such withholding. After such notice, each of the Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable Law, including United States federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding. Paying Agent, Buyer, Merger Sub, or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall reasonably cooperate with the Company and the Stockholders’ Agent in mitigating any such withholding or obtaining a refund of any amounts withheld and paid over to any applicable Tax Authority pursuant to this Section 2.15, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

2.16 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Final Closing Statement. As soon as practicable, but in any event no later than sixty (60) days, after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to the Stockholders’ Agent a statement, together with reasonable supporting detail (the “Final Closing Statement”), setting forth Buyer’s good faith calculation of the Final Purchase Price and the components thereof, including (i) Closing Indebtedness, (ii) Closing Net Working Capital, and (iii) Transaction Expenses. The Final Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Applicable Accounting Principles. For purposes of complying with the terms of this Section 2.16, after the delivery of the Final Closing Statement, Buyer and the Surviving Corporation shall make their respective Representatives reasonably available to the Stockholders’ Agent to discuss the Final Closing Statement and related supporting documentation described above during normal business hours.

(b) Final Closing Statement Review. If the Stockholders’ Agent disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of any item in the Final Closing Statement delivered pursuant to Section 2.16(a), the Stockholders’ Agent may, within thirty (30) days after delivery thereof, deliver a notice to Buyer setting forth its disagreement with such calculation together with the Stockholders’ Agent’s calculations in reasonable detail and its grounds for such disagreement. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which the Stockholders’ Agent disagrees, and the Stockholders’ Agent shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Final Closing Statement delivered pursuant to Section 2.16(a). If a notice of disagreement shall be duly delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(b), Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, work in good faith to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the matters in the notice of disagreement.

(c) Final Closing Statement Dispute Resolution. If Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent are unable to reach such agreement during such period, then such disputes shall be referred to a firm of independent accountants of nationally recognized standing reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent (the “Accountant”); provided, that if Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent cannot agree on such Accountant within ten (10) Business Days, each shall select an independent accountant of nationally recognized standing, which in turn shall mutually select a firm of independent accountants of nationally recognized standing that shall be deemed the “Accountant” for purposes hereof. In resolving such dispute, the Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the Final Closing Statement as to which the Stockholders’ Agent has disagreed in the notice delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.16(b). The Accountant shall be instructed by Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent to use its best efforts to deliver to Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent, as promptly as practicable, in any event no more than thirty (30) days after referral, a report setting forth its determination of such dispute. Such report shall be final and binding upon the Parties, absent manifest computational error. The Stockholders’ Agent and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, cooperate and assist in such review conducted by the Accountant, including making available books, records and personnel. The fees and expenses of the Accountant shall be paid by the Stockholders’ Agent on behalf of the Company Stockholders (through payment from the Stockholders’ Agent Expense Fund), on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to the Stockholders’ Agent or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by the Stockholders’ Agent and Buyer.

(d) Post-Closing Adjustment.

(i) If the Closing Purchase Price is greater than the Final Purchase Price (such difference, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Shortfall Amount”), then Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall, within three (3) Business Days of the determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 2.16, jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the Post-Closing Adjustment Shortfall Amount to Buyer out of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund by wire transfer in immediately available funds. If the amount of funds in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund exceeds the Post-Closing Adjustment Shortfall Amount, then Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall also jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to, after paying the Post-Closing Adjustment Shortfall Amount to Buyer, pay to each Company Stockholder its Pro Rata Portion of the remaining amount of funds in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund. If the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund is insufficient to cover the Post-Closing Adjustment Shortfall Amount, then Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute the entire Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund to Buyer as provided above.

(ii) If the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Closing Purchase Price (such excess amount, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Excess Amount”), then the Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive such excess amount, and Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 2.16, pay to the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Excess Amount which shall be distributed to the Company Stockholders as Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Post-Closing Adjustment Excess Amount shall be payable in cash and Buyer Common Shares in proportion to the total Cash Merger Consideration and the total Stock Merger Consideration; provided, that the portion of the Additional Consideration payable in Buyer Common Shares shall be calculated based on the Buyer Average Stock Price as of the date of such payment. Concurrently with the payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment Excess Amount, Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall also jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to pay to each Company Stockholder its Pro Rata Portion of the remaining amount of funds in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(e) Payment of Post-Closing Adjustment. Any payment required pursuant to Section 2.16(d)(i) shall be made as soon as practicable, and in any case within five (5) Business Days, after the party or parties required to make such payment receives payment instructions from the other party. If any payment is not made on or prior to such date, such unpaid amount shall thereafter bear interest at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal Table of Money Rates on such date and the non-paying party or parties shall reimburse the other party for the reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with the collection of such amounts.

2.17 Additional Consideration. Each Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive Additional Consideration pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below:

(a) If, during the 10-year period following the Agreement Date, Buyer or the Surviving Corporation receives the Patent Award, then Buyer shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, to each Person that is a Company Stockholder immediately prior to the Effective Time its Pro Rata Portion of the Additional Consideration in accordance with this Section.

(b) The Additional Consideration shall be payable in cash and Buyer Common Shares in proportion to the total Cash Merger Consideration and the total Stock Merger Consideration; provided, that the portion of the Additional Consideration payable in Buyer Common Shares shall be calculated based on the Buyer Average Stock Price as of the date of such payment. If the Buyer is unable to pay any portion of the Additional Consideration to the applicable Company Stockholders for any reason for a period of six (6) months after such date, Buyer shall be entitled to retain such unpaid portion of the Additional Consideration, subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(c) Buyer’s obligation to pay the Additional Consideration is expressly conditioned upon the Company’s actual receipt of the Patent Award within the period described in Section 2.17(a). For the avoidance of doubt, if Buyer or the Surviving Company (i) fails to receive the Patent Award, whether within such period or at any time thereafter, or (ii) receives the Patent Award after the period described in Section 2.17(a), then Buyer shall have no obligation hereunder to pay to any Person any portion of the Patent Award, if any, as Additional Consideration and shall be entitled to retain the full amount of the Patent Award, if any.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive any Additional Consideration shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, except by operation of law, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Buyer, (ii) the Company Stockholders shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Buyer as a result of their respective contingent right to receive any Additional Consideration hereunder, and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Additional Consideration.

Except (a) as set forth in the corresponding section of the Company Disclosure Schedules and (b) as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents that were publicly available on the website of the SEC at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Agreement Date, solely to the extent it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure would qualify the applicable representations and warranties contained herein, and other than disclosures in the “Risk Factors” sections of any such Company SEC Documents and any other disclosures included in such Company SEC Documents that are predictive or forward-looking in nature, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Buyer, as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing, as follows:

3.1 Organization, Standing, Minute Books, etc. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization and has all requisite corporate or other entity power and authority to own or lease its assets and to carry on its business as described in the Company SEC Documents. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, operated or leased by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified in any such jurisdiction would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Company has made available to Buyer complete and correct copies of the Company Organizational Documents and the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar organizational documents, each as amended to date, of the Company’s Subsidiaries, and all such documents are in full force and effect.

The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, the Company’s performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company. The Company Board has (a) adopted a resolution approving this Agreement and declaring its advisability, (b) determined that in its opinion the Merger is advisable and in the best interests of the Company Stockholders, and (c) resolved to recommend that the Company Stockholders adopt this Agreement (the “Company Recommendation”).

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as may be limited by the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. The Company Board has taken all action so that Buyer will not be an “interested stockholder” or prohibited from entering into or consummating a “business combination” with the Company (in each case, as such term is used in Section 203 of the DGCL) as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions in the manner contemplated hereby.

3.4 Noncontravention. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the Company, the Company’s performance hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions do not and will not (a) conflict with, violate or result in a breach of any provision of the Company Organizational Documents or the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar organizational documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, (b) except as set forth in Section 3.4 of the Company Disclosure Schedules, violate or constitute a breach of or default (with notice or lapse of time, or both), permit termination, modification or acceleration, or cause the forfeiture of any right, under any provision of any Company Contract, (c) assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 3.5, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Order of any Governmental Authority by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or by which any of their respective properties or assets are bound or affected, or (d) result in the creation of, or require the creation of, any Lien upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except, in the case of clauses (b), (c) and (d), for any such items that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Other than as set forth in Section 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedules, the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Company’s performance hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions do not require (a) any notice or Consent under any Company Contract, except where failures to obtain such Consents would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, or (b) any Governmental Approval, except (i) the filing with the SEC of (A) an information statement of the type contemplated by Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act (the “Information Statement”) and of a registration statement on Form S-4 pursuant to which the issuance of the Buyer Common Shares to the Company Stockholders will be registered pursuant to the Securities Act and in which the Information Statement will be included (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Form S-4”), and declaration of effectiveness of the Form S-4, and (B) such reports under, and other compliance with, the Exchange Act (and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) and the Securities Act (and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) as may be required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, (ii) as may be required under the rules and regulations of the Stock Exchange, (iii) the filing of the Certificate of Merger, and (iv) where failures to obtain such Governmental Approval would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Company’s ability to consummate the Transactions.

5.4 [Intentionally Omitted].

5.5 Acquisition Proposal.

(a) No Solicitation or Negotiation. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 5.5, the Company shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (a) knowingly solicit, initiate, encourage (including by way of furnishing nonpublic information), accept, approve or facilitate any proposals or offers from any third parties with respect to any transaction (other than the Transactions) involving any Acquisition Proposal, (b) enter into or knowingly participate in any negotiations, discussions or agreements with any third parties with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, (c) respond in any way to an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal (other than to respond that the Company is under an exclusivity obligation and not able to respond substantively), or (d) approve any transaction under, or any third party becoming an “interested stockholder” under, Section 203 of the DGCL. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to cease immediately and cause to be terminated, and shall not authorize or knowingly permit any of its or their Representatives to continue, any and all existing activities, discussions, or negotiations, if any, with any third party conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such third party (or its agents or advisors) in possession of non-public information in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that was furnished by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries to return or destroy (and confirm destruction of) all such information. The Company shall promptly advise Buyer orally and in writing of any communication received by the Company, any of its Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives from a third party regarding an Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Fiduciary Duty Exception to No Solicitation Provision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.5(a), in response to an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal not solicited in breach of Section 5.5(a) and received after the Agreement Date, the Company may:

(i) provide information in response to a request therefor (including material non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which, if provided, must also be provided to Buyer) to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal, provided that in the event such information has not previously been made available to Buyer, the Company shall, promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours), provide such information to Buyer and that, prior to furnishing any such information, the Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality agreement with terms not less restrictive in the aggregate to the other party than the terms in the Letter Agreement are on Buyer at such time; provided, that the Company shall not enter into any confidentiality agreement with any Person subsequent to the Agreement Date which prohibits the Company from providing any information to Buyer in accordance with this Section 5.5(a) or otherwise prohibits the Company from complying with its obligations under this Agreement; provided, further, that the Company shall not provide information to any Person pursuant to any confidentiality agreement entered into prior to the Agreement Date unless such Person agrees prior to receipt of such information to waive any provision that would prohibit the Company from providing any information to Buyer in accordance with this Section 5.5 or otherwise prohibit the Company from complying with its obligations under this Agreement; and

(ii) engage in or participate in discussions and/or negotiations with any such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal;

in each case, if, and only if, prior to taking any action described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel that, (A) based on the information then available and after consultation with its outside financial advisors, such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal that is more favorable to the Company Stockholders from a financial point of view than the Merger that could reasonably be expected to satisfy the criteria in clause (B) of the definition of "Superior Proposal" and (B), in each such case, the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(c) Notice. The Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) provide written notice to Buyer if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries receives (i) any inquiry, proposal, indication of interest or offer with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any request by any Person or group for information in connection with or with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any request by any Person or group for discussions or negotiations, or to initiate or continue discussions or negotiations, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, setting forth in such notice the name of such Person or group and the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposals and thereafter shall keep Buyer reasonably informed, on a reasonably current basis (and, in any event, within 24 hours), of changes in the status and terms of any such proposals or offers (including any amendments thereto) and any changes to the status of any such discussions or negotiations.

(d) No Change of Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as permitted by Section 5.5(e) and Section 5.5(f), the Company Board, including any committee thereof, shall not:

(i) withdraw or fail to make when required by this Agreement (or publicly propose or publicly resolve to withdraw or fail to make when required by this Agreement) the Company Recommendation with respect to the Merger;

(ii) qualify or modify (or publicly propose or publicly resolve to qualify or modify) the Company Recommendation with respect to the Merger in a manner adverse to Buyer;

(iii) approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable, any Acquisition Proposal;

(iv) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Information Statement;

(v) if any Acquisition Proposal that is structured as a tender offer or exchange offer for the Company Common Shares is commenced pursuant to Rule14d-2 of the Exchange Act, fail to recommend against acceptance of such offer by the Company Stockholders within ten (10) Business Days (which for this purpose shall be used as such term is used in Rule 14d-9 of the Exchange Act) after commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-2 of the Exchange Act;

(vi) approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable or publicly propose to enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, collaboration agreement or other agreement with respect to, or that is intended or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to Section 5.5(b)(i) relating to any Acquisition Proposal) (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”, and any of the actions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), a “Change of Recommendation”); or

(vii) cause or permit the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e) Fiduciary Exception to Change in Recommendation Provision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company Board may effect a Change of Recommendation and, in the case of a Change of Recommendation relating to a Superior Proposal and after complying with the provisions of this Section 5.5(e), terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3(c), if the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that (x) in the case where the Change of Recommendation is not made in response to an Acquisition Proposal that could constitute a Superior Proposal, an Intervening Event has occurred and the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (y) in the case where such Change of Recommendation is made in response to an Acquisition Proposal that could constitute a Superior Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the Company Board shall not take any action set forth above unless and until (1) the Company has given Buyer written notice of its intention to take such action five (5) Business Days in advance, which notice shall comply with the provisions of Section 5.5(c) (if applicable), setting forth in writing that management of the Company or a committee of the Company Board intends to recommend to the Company Board that it take such action; (2) after giving such notice and prior to taking such action, the Company has afforded Buyer the opportunity to negotiate in good faith with the Company (to the extent Buyer wishes to negotiate) to enable Buyer to propose in writing a binding offer to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that it would cause such Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal (or, in the case of a Change of Recommendation not involving an Acquisition Proposal, such that the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would not be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law); and (3) at the end of the five (5) Business Day period and prior to taking any such action, the Company Board has considered in good faith any such binding written offer to make revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Buyer and any other information it deems appropriate, and has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and its outside financial advisors, that in the case of a Superior Proposal, the Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal (or, in the case of a Change of Recommendation not involving an Acquisition Proposal, that the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would still be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law) if such changes proposed in such binding offer by Buyer were to be given effect. In the event of any modification to the financial terms or any other material terms of any Acquisition Proposal, the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall apply again.

(f) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Nothing contained in this Section 5.5 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable U.S. federal or state Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal.

(g) Limits on Release of Standstill and Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be permitted to terminate, amend, modify, waive or fail to enforce any provision of any such confidentiality, "standstill" or similar obligation of any Person if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

5.6 Buyer Public Offering. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cooperate in connection with the Buyer Public Offering as may be reasonably requested by Buyer, including (i) providing Buyer such financial and other information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as may reasonably be requested by Buyer to prepare any Buyer Public Offering Documents and agreements used in connection with, and to facilitate and consummate, the Buyer Public Offering, (ii) at the cost of Buyer, assisting Buyer and its Representatives in the preparation of Buyer Public Offering Documents and other materials used in connection with the Buyer Public Offering, and (iii) making the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ executive officers, senior management and other Representatives reasonably available to assist Buyer, the underwriters and their respective Representatives and otherwise reasonably cooperating in connection with the preparation, marketing and consummation of the Buyer Public Offering. The Company hereby authorizes the use of the corporate trademarks or trade names of the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with any dissemination of Buyer Public Offering Documents and other information and marketing materials in connection with the Buyer Public Offering, provided that the Company has a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such use. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer may (a) disclose this Agreement and the Transactions in the Buyer Public Offering Documents and (b) file this Agreement and other related agreements or documents with the SEC in connection with the Buyer Public Offering, in each case as required by applicable Law.

5.7 SEC Filings.

(a) Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will deliver to Buyer and Merger Sub the Written Consent executed by the Company Stockholders adopting and approving the Merger and this Agreement.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Agreement Date, the Company shall, with reasonable assistance of Buyer, prepare the Information Statement for inclusion in the Form S-4. The Company shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to as promptly as reasonably practicable (and after consultation with, and the assistance of, Buyer) respond to any comments made by the SEC with respect to the Information Statement. The Company will provide Buyer with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any responses to comments from the SEC on the Information Statement or any amendments or supplements to the Information Statement prior to the filing of such responses, amendments or supplements. The Company shall cause the Information Statement (substantially in the form last filed and/or cleared) to be promptly filed with the SEC in definitive form as contemplated by Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act and then to be mailed to the Company Stockholders as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the latest of (i) confirmation from the SEC that it has no further comments on the Information Statement, (ii) confirmation from the SEC that the Information Statement is otherwise not to be reviewed, (iii) expiration of the ten (10) day period after filing in the event the SEC does not review the Information Statement, and (iv) the declaration by the SEC of the effectiveness of the Form S-4.

(c) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Agreement Date, Buyer shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Form S-4 (including the Information Statement). Buyer shall prepare and cause to be submitted to the Stock Exchange the application and other agreements and documentation necessary for the listing of the Buyer Common Shares issuable in the Merger on the Stock Exchange. Buyer and the Company each shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and ensure that the Form S-4 complies in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act. The Company and Buyer shall also use their respective Commercially Reasonable Efforts to satisfy prior to the effective date of the Form S-4 all necessary state securities Law or “blue sky” notice requirements in connection with the Merger and to consummate the other Transactions and shall pay all expenses incident thereto.

(d) No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Form S-4 will be made by Buyer, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Information Statement will be made by the Company or Buyer, in each case without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. Each of the Company and Buyer shall furnish all information concerning such Person and its Affiliates to the other, and provide such other assistance, as may be reasonably requested by such other party to be included therein and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in the preparation of the Information Statement, the Form S-4 and the resolution of any comments to either received from the SEC. The parties shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Information Statement or the Form S-4 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 Information Statement, the Form S-4 or the Merger and (ii) all orders of the SEC relating to the Form S-4. Buyer shall cause the Form S-4 to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(e) The Company and Buyer each shall, upon request by the other, promptly furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Information Statement, the Form S-4 and any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party and/or any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and the other Transactions.

5.8 Stock Exchange Listing; De-listing; Post-Closing SEC Reports.

(a) Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Buyer Common Shares to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

(b) The Company shall take all actions necessary to permit the capital stock of the Company to be de-listed and removed from the OTCQB Marketplace and, if applicable, de-registered under the Exchange Act, in each case, as soon as possible following the Effective Time (the “Delisting”).

(c) If the Surviving Corporation is reasonably likely to be required to file any reports pursuant to the Exchange Act prior to the Delisting, the Company shall deliver to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing a substantially final draft of any such reports reasonably likely to be required to be filed prior to the Delisting (“Post-Closing SEC Reports”). The Post-Closing SEC Reports provided by the Company pursuant to this Section 5.8(c) shall (i) not 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 made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) comply in all material respects with the provisions of applicable Laws.

5.9 Publicity. Subject to Section 5.6, any public announcement, whether by press release or otherwise, with respect to the existence or subject matter of this Agreement shall be mutually approved by Buyer and the Company, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any securities exchange. After the Transactions have been publicly announced, Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to respond to questions in the ordinary course or issue any press release or make any other public statement that, in each case, is consistent with any public statement previously issued or made by it in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.9.

5.10 Resignations. To the extent requested by Buyer in writing at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall cause to be delivered to Buyer duly signed letters of resignation, effective as of the Closing, of such members of the boards of directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

5.11 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a) Buyer and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time an officer or director of the Company or any predecessor of the Company (each, a “D&O Indemnified Party”) as provided in the Company Organizational Documents, in each case, as in effect on the Agreement Date, or pursuant to any other Contracts in effect on the Agreement Date and disclosed in Section 5.11(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules, shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time and shall survive the Merger and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and, in the event that any proceeding is pending or asserted or any claim made during such period, until the final disposition of such proceeding or claim.

(b) For six (6) years after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, Buyer and the Surviving Corporation (the “D&O Indemnifying Parties”) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each D&O Indemnified Party against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments and fines arising in whole or in part out of actions or omissions in their capacity as such occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with the Transactions), and shall reimburse each D&O Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such D&O Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments and fines as such expenses are incurred, subject to the Surviving Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking by such D&O Indemnified Party to repay such legal and other fees and expenses paid in advance if it is ultimately determined in a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such D&O Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation will not be liable for any settlement effected without the Surviving Corporation’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall obtain and fully pay for “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of at least six (6) years from the Effective Time with at least the same coverage and amount and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company as the Company’s existing policies with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in connection with the Transactions) (the “D&O Tail Policy”). The Company shall bear the cost of the D&O Tail Policy, and such costs, to the extent not paid prior to the Closing, shall be included in the determination of Transaction Expenses. During the term of the D&O Tail Policy, Buyer shall not (and shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to) take any action following the Closing to cause the D&O Tail Policy to be cancelled or any provision therein to be amended or waived; provided, that neither Buyer, the Surviving Corporation nor any Affiliate thereof shall be obligated to pay any premiums or other amounts in respect of such D&O Tail Policy.

(d) In the event Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.11. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise. 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 its officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.11 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

5.12 Treatment as Reorganization.

(a) None of Buyer, Merger Sub or the Company shall, and they shall not permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to, take any action (or fail to take any action) prior to or following the Closing that would reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization with the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to Buyer’s and Merger Sub’s compliance with their relevant representations, warranties and covenants hereunder, neither Buyer nor Merger Sub makes any representation to the Company that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

(b) Unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code, each of Buyer, Merger Sub and the Company shall report the Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

(c) Buyer or Merger Sub will continue at least one significant historic business line of the Company, or use at least a significant portion of the Company’s historic business assets in a business, in each case within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(d).

(d) Buyer, on its behalf and on behalf of Merger Sub, and the Company shall execute and deliver to Pryor Cashman LLP, counsel to the Company (“Pryor Cashman”), tax representation letters in customary form at such time or times as reasonably requested by Pryor Cashman in connection with its delivery of the tax opinion referred to in Sections 6.10 and 7.13.

5.13 Takeover Statute. If any Takeover Statute is or may become applicable to the Merger or the other Transactions, the Company, Buyer and Merger Sub, and the respective boards of directors thereof, shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise use reasonable best efforts to act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on such transactions.

5.14 Control of the Company’s or Buyer’s Operations. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Buyer or the Company, directly or indirectly, rights to control or direct the operations of the other prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Buyer and the Company shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision of its operations.

5.15 Section 16 Matters. The Company Board and the board of directors of Buyer shall, prior to the Effective Time, take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to cause the Transactions and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) or acquisitions of Buyer Common Shares (including derivative securities) in connection with the Transactions 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.

5.20 Employment Arrangements.

(a) Buyer hereby advises the Company that Buyer expects to offer, or expects the Surviving Corporation or one of their respective Affiliates to offer, employment, as of the Closing, to substantially all of the Employees as of the Closing; provided, however, that each such Employee must satisfy the standard criteria for employment by Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, as the case may be, that are generally applicable to the employees thereof. For each Employee immediately prior to the Closing who continues employment with Buyer, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their Affiliates on and following the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”), Buyer shall provide (or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide) for the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing: (i) employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to either (A) those offered to similarly situated employees of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates (which will not be materially less in the aggregate than those offered to such Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing) or (B) those offered by the Company to such Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing, with the determination of the employee benefits and their comparability under this clause (i) to be made by Buyer from time to time and in its sole and absolute discretion, and (ii) short-term and long-term cash and equity based incentive award opportunities that are substantially comparable to those offered to similarly situated employees of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates.

(b) To the extent Buyer elects (consistent with Section 5.20(a) or otherwise) to have the Continuing Employees participate in its employee benefit plans (“Buyer Plans”) following the Closing, (i) each Continuing Employee will receive credit for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting, but not for purposes of benefit accrual, under such Buyer Plans for years of service with the Company prior to the Closing (but in no event to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits), and (ii) Buyer shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to (A) cause any and all pre-existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any Buyer Plans that are group health plans in which such Continuing Employees will participate to be waived and (B) provide credit for any deductibles or annual out-of-pocket limits that are incurred by the Continuing Employees prior to the Closing for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs under Benefit Plans that are group health plans for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible or annual out-of-pocket limits during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs under any Buyer Plans that are group health plans in which such Continuing Employees participate.

(c) Nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, (i) shall be construed to require Buyer, the Surviving Corporation, any of their Affiliates or the Company to continue, on or after the Closing, to offer any specific employee benefit, to offer any specific employee benefit plans, or to continue the employment of any specific employee or shall limit the right of Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any employee benefit plan or arrangement following the Closing or (ii) shall be deemed to establish or amend any employee benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement for any purpose. Nothing in this Section 5.20, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person, including any union or any employee or former employee of the Company, other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever, including any rights of employment for any specified period.

(d) Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall provide promptly to Buyer, at Buyer’s request, any information or copies of personnel records (including addresses, dates of birth, dates of hire and dependent information) relating to the Continuing Employees or relating to the service of the Continuing Employees with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and their respective predecessors), as applicable, prior to the Closing Date. The Company, Buyer and the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate and provide to the other such documentation, information and assistance as is reasonably necessary to effect the provisions of this Section 5.20.

8.5 Effect of Termination; Company Termination Fee.

(a) The party terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be, shall give written notice of such termination to Buyer (if the Company elects to terminate this Agreement) or the Company (if Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement). In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void, and there shall be no liability or obligation under this Agreement on the part of any party hereto (or any Representative of such party); provided, that the terms of Section 5.9, Section 5.11, ARTICLE VIII, ARTICLE IX and Section 8 of the Letter Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, further, subject to Section 9.4, any termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party hereto from any liability for any Fraud or Willful Breach by such party. If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein, all filings, applications and other submissions made pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent practicable, shall be withdrawn from the Governmental Authority or other Person to which they were made.

(b) Company Termination Fee. If this Agreement is terminated:

(i) by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.4(a) as a result of a material breach by the Company of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement; and

(A) a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly made to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise become publicly known, or any Person shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional) to make an Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement; and

(B) within six (6) months after such termination, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have entered into a definitive agreement providing for, or shall have consummated or, in the case of an Acquisition Proposal that is a tender offer, shall have approved or recommended to the Company Stockholders, the Acquisition Proposal referred to in Section (A); provided, that, for purposes of this Section 8.5(b)(i), the references to “15%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to "50%" and, as to clause (i) of such definition, any such Acquisition Proposal shall result in a change in control of at least 50% of the stock or assets of the Company;

(ii) by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.4(c) (Company Recommendation Matters); or

(iii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.3(c) (Superior Proposal);

then, (1) in the case of Section 8.5(b)(i), within two Business Days after consummation of such Acquisition Proposal, (2) in the case of Section 8.5(b)(ii), within two Business Days after termination of this Agreement, and (3) in the case of Section 8.5(b)(iii), concurrently with or prior to termination of this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Company Termination Fee to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer.

(c) Each party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.5 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, no party would have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay Buyer any amount due pursuant to Section 8.5(b) (any such amount due, a “Termination Payment”), and, in order to obtain such payment, Buyer commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the applicable Termination Payment, the Company shall pay to Buyer its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest thereon at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal (or if not reported therein, as reported in another authoritative source reasonably selected by Buyer) in effect on the date such Termination Payment was required to be paid from such date through the date of full payment thereof; provided, that if such suit does not result in a judgment against the Company, Buyer shall pay to the Company its costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest thereon at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal for the applicable periods.

(d) Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the Company Termination Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Buyer in the circumstances in which such Company Termination Fee is due and payable and which do not involve fraud or willful and material breach, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) in no event shall more than one Company Termination Fee be payable under this Agreement and (y) the parties agree that the payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Buyer and Merger Sub with respect to this Agreement in the event any such payment becomes due and payable and is paid, and, upon payment of the Company Termination Fee, the Company (and the Company’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders and Representatives) shall have no further liability to Buyer and Merger Sub under this Agreement. Buyer and Merger Sub shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any and all rights and remedies other than receipt of the Company Termination Fee and the Company and its Representatives shall have no further liability to Buyer and Merger Sub under this Agreement. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the Company Termination Fee, if paid to Buyer, shall be treated as liquidated damages that are capital in nature to which Section 1234A of the Code applies.

(a) No party hereto may assign, in whole or in part, any of its rights, interest or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void; provided, that Buyer may transfer or assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, after the Closing Date, to any Person so long as such transfer or assignment does not adversely affect, alter or change any right or obligation of any other party hereto, it being understood and agreed that no such transfer or assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder or enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any other party hereto or due to Buyer.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except as expressly set forth herein. This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are binding upon, are for the sole and exclusive benefit of, and are enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

9.9 Waiver. No breach of any provision hereof shall be deemed waived unless expressly waived in writing by the party hereto who may assert such breach. No waiver that may be given by a party hereto shall be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver, unless otherwise expressly provided therein. Except where a specific period for action or inaction is provided in this Agreement, neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party hereto of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. Except as expressly set forth herein, the rights and remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and not alternative.

9.10 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein, unless such a construction would be unreasonable or the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is affected in a manner materially adverse to any party. 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 Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

9.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue; No Trial by Jury.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE. Each of the parties hereto (i) shall submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court having subject matter jurisdiction in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, (ii) agrees that venue will be proper as to proceedings brought in any such court with respect to such a dispute, (iii) will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction or venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (iv) agrees to accept service of process at its address for notices pursuant to this Agreement in any such action or proceeding brought in any such court. With respect to any such action, service of process upon any party hereto in the manner provided in Section 9.2 for the giving of notices shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon such party. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives any immunity to jurisdiction to which it may be entitled or become entitled (including sovereign immunity, immunity to pre-award attachment, post-award attachment or otherwise) in any proceedings against it arising out of or based on this Agreement or the Transactions.

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11(b).

9.12 Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence. The parties hereto acknowledge that each will be relying upon the timely performance by the other of its obligations hereunder as a material inducement to such party’s execution of this Agreement.

9.13 Construction. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been drafted jointly by the parties hereto. Every term and provision of this Agreement shall be construed simply according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any party hereto.

9.14 Incorporation by Reference. Each Exhibit and Schedule attached hereto and referred to herein is incorporated in this Agreement by reference and shall be considered part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein, unless this Agreement expressly otherwise provides.

9.15 Headings. The descriptive headings used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, and are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

9.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed (including by facsimile transmission or by e-mail of a .pdf attachment) in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that delivery by a signatory of a signature by facsimile or electronic transmission shall constitute execution by such signatory.

9.17 Stockholders’ Agent.

(a) By approving this Agreement and the Transactions or by executing and delivering a Letter of Transmittal, each Company Stockholder shall have irrevocably authorized and appointed the Stockholders’ Agent as such Person’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution (i) to act in such Person’s name, place and stead with respect to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (ii) to take any and all actions and make any decisions required or permitted to be taken by Stockholders’ Agent pursuant to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) to act on such Person’s behalf in any dispute, litigation or arbitration involving this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and (iv) to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and execute all such agreements, certificates, instruments or other documents, as the Stockholders’ Agent shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the Transactions, including the power:

(i) to give and receive notices and communications;

(ii) authorize delivery to Buyer of cash from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund in satisfaction of any amounts owed to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.16(d)(i);

(iii) to execute and deliver all ancillary agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents, and to make representations and warranties therein, that the Stockholders’ Agent deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the Transactions;

(iv) to do or refrain from doing any further act or deed that the Stockholders’ Agent deems necessary or appropriate in the sole discretion of the Stockholders’ Agent relating to the subject matter of this Agreement;

(v) to negotiate and compromise claims and disputes arising under, or relating to, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the other agreements, instruments, and documents contemplated hereby or executed in connection herewith or therewith (including, for clarity, any claim or dispute relating to indemnification obligations), and to sign any releases or other documents in respect of any such claim or dispute;

(vi) to exercise or refrain from exercising any remedy available to the Company Stockholders under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the other agreements, instruments and documents executed in connection herewith or therewith;

(vii) to retain such counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as the Stockholders’ Agent deems necessary to assist it in its performance of its duties hereunder and to pay all fees and expenses of such counsel and advisors; and

(viii) to exercise all rights and remedies granted to the Stockholders’ Agent in this Agreement.

(b) The appointment of the Stockholders’ Agent shall be deemed coupled with an interest and is hereby irrevocable, and Buyer may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Stockholders’ Agent on behalf of the Company Stockholders in all matters referred to herein. The Stockholders’ Agent shall act for the Company Stockholders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Stockholders’ Agent reasonably believes to be in the best interest of the Company Stockholders and consistent with their obligations under this Agreement, and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify this Agreement, waive any condition contained herein, enter into or execute any agreement, certificate, instrument or other document, or do or refrain from doing any other act or deed, that has the effect of adversely and disproportionately impacting any Company Stockholder relative to the other Company Stockholders, in a manner that is inconsistent with the relative rights of such disproportionately impacted Company Stockholder, as the case may be, under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Company Stockholder, as applicable. The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be responsible to the Company Stockholders for any loss or damages they may suffer by reason of the performance by the Stockholders’ Agent of the duties of the Stockholders’ Agent under this Agreement, other than loss or damage arising from a willful and knowing violation of the Law or this Agreement by the Stockholders’ Agent. All actions, decisions and instructions of the Stockholders’ Agent taken, made or given pursuant to the authority granted to the Stockholders’ Agent pursuant to this Section 9.17 shall be conclusive and binding upon each Company Stockholder, and no Company Stockholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same.

(c) The provisions of this Section 9.17 are independent and severable, shall constitute an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest and surviving death or dissolutions, granted by the Company Stockholders to the Stockholders’ Agent, and shall be binding upon the executors, heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each such Company Stockholder.

(d) The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable to the Company Stockholders for actions taken pursuant to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except to the extent such actions shall have been determined by a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or involved Fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel, accountants and other professionals and experts retained by Stockholders’ Agent shall be conclusive evidence of good faith).

(e) The Agent Losses shall be satisfied solely from the Stockholders’ Agent Expense Fund. As soon as practicable after the date on which the final obligation of Stockholders’ Agent under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been discharged or such other date as Stockholders’ Agent deems appropriate, the Escrow Agent shall pay any amounts remaining in the Stockholders’ Agent Expense Fund to the Company Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion, as set forth in the Escrow Agreement. If the Escrow Agent is unable to pay any portion of such remaining amounts to the applicable Company Stockholders for any reason for a period of six (6) months after such date, such amounts shall be returned to Buyer, upon demand, and any such Company Stockholder who has not received its applicable portion of such remaining amounts shall thereafter look only to Buyer for payment thereof.
