(e)          Anti-Dilution.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the number of outstanding shares of Company Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, business combination, tender or exchange offer, readjustment or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon shall be declared with a record date within such period, the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of shares of Company Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount payable by Parent pursuant to Section 2.08 after giving effect to any such event exceed the amount that would have been payable pursuant to Section 2.08 had such event not occurred and (ii) nothing in this Section 2.07 shall permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is expressly prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.08.    Disposition of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares.

(a)          Paying Agent.  Prior to the Closing, Parent shall appoint a U.S.-based nationally recognized bank or trust company, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to the holders of the shares of Company Stock as provided in Section 2.07(c).  Parent will enter into a paying agent agreement with the Paying Agent (the “Paying Agent Agreement”) on terms reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company prior to the Closing.  Prior to or at the Closing, Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent cash in immediately available funds in the amount necessary for payment in accordance with Section 2.07 and this Section 2.08 of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07(d) (such total deposited cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund”).  The Paying Agent shall make payments of the Per Share Merger Consideration out of the Payment Fund in accordance with this Agreement and the Paying Agent Agreement.  The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.  At or immediately after the Effective Time, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Surviving Corporation in cash the amounts payable in respect of the Company Stock Options pursuant to Section 2.07(d)(i) and the Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 2.07(d)(ii), and the Surviving Corporation shall disburse such amounts in accordance with Section 2.07(d)(i) and Section 2.07(d)(ii), respectively after withholding of any required applicable Taxes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.08(h).

(b)          Stock Transfer Books.  At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Stock on the records of the Company.  From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares representing ownership of shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have rights with respect to such shares except as otherwise provided for herein.  From and after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares presented to the Paying Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation for any reason (other than Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing Excluded Shares) shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares pursuant to this Article 2.

(c)          Payment Procedures.

(i)          As soon as possible after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Stock (other than Excluded Shares) (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass to the Paying Agent, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent, and which letter shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree), (B) a draft of the declaration, in a form reasonably agreed by the Parties, in which the beneficial owner of Company Stock provides certain declarations and information necessary for Parent to determine, reasonably and in good faith, the Tax amounts (if any) which need to be withheld from the consideration payable to such beneficial owner pursuant to the terms of the Ordinance, the Code, or any provision of state, local, Israeli or foreign Law (a “Tax Declaration”), and (C) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled.  Upon surrender of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the Tax Declaration, and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount of cash in immediately available funds equal to (x) the number of shares of Company Stock represented by such Certificate (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration (less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.08(h)), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.  In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.  No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable pursuant to this Section 2.08.

(ii)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall deliver to the Paying Agent the Tax Declaration, but shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article 2.  In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration shall upon receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (or such other documentation or evidence, if any, as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of each such share of Company Stock (less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.08(h)), and the Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled.

(d)          Termination of Payment Fund.  Any portion of the Payment Fund which remains unclaimed for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, and any holders of shares of Company Stock prior to the Effective Time who have not theretofore complied with this Article 2 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for, and the Surviving Corporation shall remain liable for, payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws).

(e)          No Liability.  None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Company or the Paying Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent, representative or Affiliate thereof, shall be liable to any Person in respect of the Per Share Merger Consideration from the Payment Fund properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f)          Investment of Payment Fund.  The Paying Agent shall invest the Payment Fund as directed by Parent (on behalf of the Surviving Corporation); provided, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in funds investing solely in such obligations that provide for same day liquidity.  Any net profit resulting from, or interest or income produced by, such investments shall be paid to the Surviving Corporation or Parent (at Parent’s election).  To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Payment Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to make prompt cash payments of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration as contemplated hereby, Parent shall promptly replace or restore the portion of the Payment Fund required so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is, at all times, maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments.

(g)          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 Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent or the Paying Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

(h)          Withholding Rights.

(i)          Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the Paying Agent (each, a “Payor”), as applicable, shall be entitled to reasonably deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the Ordinance and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law (in each case in accordance with and subject to the Option Tax Ruling and the Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained); provided, however, that with respect to withholding of Israeli Tax during such time that the consideration payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.07(c) is retained for the benefit of each holder of record of Company Stock (but for the avoidance of doubt excluding any consideration payable to the holders of Company Equity Awards under Section 2.07(d)), no amounts of Israeli Tax shall be withheld unless requested otherwise by the Israeli Tax Authority (the “ITA”) or by the Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained.  In the event that any holder of record of Company Stock, Restricted Shares, or Company Stock Options, provides the Payor with a valid withholding certificate issued by the ITA regarding the withholding (or exemption from withholding or other instructions) of Israeli Tax from the consideration payable in respect thereof in accordance with this Article 2 to the Payor’s reasonable satisfaction (the “Valid Certificate”), then the deduction and withholding of any amounts under the Ordinance or any other provision of Israeli Law or requirement, if any, from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement to such holder of record of Company Stock, Restricted Shares or Company Stock Options, as applicable, shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Certificate.  For avoidance of doubt, the Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained, will be considered a “Valid Certificate” provided, in the discretion of the applicable Payor, such ruling applies to the relevant holder and provided that if the applicable ruling requires the affirmative consent of the relevant holder, such holder consented to join any such applicable ruling.  To the extent amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.  The Payor undertakes to promptly provide each Person from whom Tax was so withheld with sufficient evidence regarding the amounts that were paid and withheld with respect to such Person.

(ii)          Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall select, to the extent necessary in light of the provisions of the Withholding Tax Ruling, as may be applicable, or if Parent so elects, an information agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Information Agent”) to assist in obtaining any requisite residency certificate and/or other declaration for Taxes levied, assessed, charged or imposed by any Israeli Governmental Authority withholding purposes and, in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Information Agent in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

Except (i) as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents filed with or furnished to the SEC after January 1, 2015 and prior to the date of this Agreement (excluding, in each case, any disclosures set forth in any risk factor section or in any other section to the extent they are forward-looking statements or cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature) or (ii) as set forth in the disclosure schedule, dated as of the date hereof, delivered by the Company to Parent concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Disclosure Schedule”) (it being understood and agreed that any disclosure set forth in one section or subsection of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed by the Company for, and apply to and qualify, the section or subsection of this Agreement to which it corresponds and each other section or subsection of this Agreement and each other section or subsection of the Disclosure Schedule to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on its face that such disclosure is applicable to such other section or subsection of this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedule), the Company represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

Section 5.02.          Acquisition Proposals.

(a)          From the execution of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (x) the date of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (y) the Effective Time, except as expressly permitted by this Section 5.02, the Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of its or their respective directors or officers shall, and the Company shall instruct and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal or the making or consummation thereof or (ii) other than to inform any Person of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 5.02, enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information in connection with, or enter into any agreement with respect to, any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with this Section 5.02).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal not solicited in violation of this Agreement that the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the recommendation of the Committee, determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and such action is reasonably likely to be necessary in order for the directors to comply with their fiduciary duties under applicable Law (assuming Israeli Law follows Delaware Law on these matters), the Company and its Representatives may (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives) pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement containing terms no less favorable to the disclosing party than those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not prohibit the making or amending of an Acquisition Proposal to the extent such Acquisition Proposal is made directly to the Company) (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”); provided, that all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is provided or made available to Parent prior to, or substantially concurrently (and in any event within 24 hours) with the time it is provided or made available to such Person; provided, further, if the Person making such Acquisition Proposal is or would reasonably be viewed as a competitor of the Company, the Company shall not provide any commercially sensitive non-public information to such Person in connection with any actions permitted by this Section 5.02 other than in accordance with customary “clean room” or other similar procedures designed to limit any adverse effect on the Company of the disclosure of competitively sensitive information and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Acquisition Proposal.

(b)          The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Acquisition Proposal, any inquiry that would be reasonably expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or of any request for information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Person that would be reasonably expected to make, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall be provided orally and in writing and shall identify the identity of the Person, the material terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request (including if applicable, complete copies of any written requests, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements) and thereafter shall keep Parent informed, on a current basis (and, in any event, within 24 hours), of the status and terms of any such proposals or offers (including any amendments thereto) and any material changes thereto.

(c)          Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor the Committee shall (i) withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify (or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify) in any manner adverse to Parent the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable, any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (iv) if any Acquisition Proposal that is structured as a tender offer or exchange offer for outstanding Company Stock is commenced, fail to recommend against acceptance of such offer by the Company’s shareholders prior to the earlier of (A) the date of the Shareholders Meeting and (B) 11 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, (v) 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 an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”, and any of the actions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (v), a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (vi) cause or permit the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement; provided, however, if at any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, (i) a bona fide Acquisition Proposal not solicited in violation of this Agreement is made (and not withdrawn) and the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the recommendation of the Committee, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (x) such Acquisition Proposal would, if consummated, constitute a Superior Proposal, and (y) such action is reasonably likely to be necessary in order for the directors to comply with their fiduciary duties under applicable Law (assuming Israeli Law follows Delaware Law on these matters), the Board of Directors of the Company may (A) make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or (B) cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(e) (and pay the Company Termination Fee due in connection with such termination), or (ii) an Intervening Event has occurred and the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the recommendation of the Committee, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (x) such Intervening Event materially adversely affects the advisability of this Agreement and the Merger to the Company from a financial point of view and (y) such action is reasonably likely to be necessary in order for the directors to comply with their fiduciary duties under applicable Law (assuming Israeli Law follows Delaware Law on these matters), the Board of Directors of the Company may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change; provided, that the Board of Directors of the Company shall not be entitled to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.02(c) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(e) unless it has first (1) caused the Company to provide Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action (a “Notice of Superior Proposal / Intervening Event”), which notice shall (I) state that the Company has received a Superior Proposal or an Intervening Event has occurred, (II) specify the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, or the material facts and circumstances (based on information reasonably available) related to such Intervening Event, (III) in the case of a Superior Proposal, identify the Person making such Superior Proposal, to the extent not previously identified and (IV) in the case of a Superior Proposal, enclose the most recent draft of any agreements intended to be entered into with the Person making or providing such Superior Proposal (or any Affiliate of such Person), (2) caused the Company and its Representatives to negotiate, to the extent Parent so wishes to negotiate, during such four (4) Business Day period following delivery of the Notice of Superior Proposal / Intervening Event in good faith with Parent concerning any revisions to the terms of this Agreement that Parent proposes in response to such Superior Proposal or Intervening Event and (3) after complying with clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 5.02(c), determined that, in the case of a Superior Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, and in the case of an Intervening Event, such Intervening Event continues to materially adversely affect the advisability of this Agreement and the Merger to the Company from a financial point of view, in each case after giving due consideration to any changes proposed to be made to this Agreement by Parent in writing. Any material modification to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new occurrence for purposes of this Section 5.02(c) except that the advance written notice obligation set forth in this Section 5.02(c) shall be reduced to two Business Days.

(d)          Nothing contained in this Section 5.02 shall prohibit the Company or the Board of Directors of the Company from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable Law regarding an Acquisition Proposal, including (i) taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the shareholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Board of Directors of the Company may effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change except in compliance with this Section 5.02.

(e)          The Company shall, and shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal.  From and after the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly end all discussions and negotiations with such Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or proposal or transaction that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and request the prompt return or destruction of all Confidential Information concerning the Company and any of its Subsidiaries.  The Company will promptly terminate all physical and electronic data access previously granted to such Persons, in each case relating to or in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, or proposal or transaction that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal.

(f)           From the execution of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (x) the date of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (y) the Effective Time, the Company shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality, “standstill” or similar agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party and shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including by obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof.  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 confidentiality, “standstill” or similar obligation of any Person if the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the recommendation of the Committee, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, such action is reasonably likely to be necessary in order for the directors to comply with their fiduciary duties under applicable Law (assuming Israeli Law follows Delaware Law on these matters).  Except as previously disclosed orally, the Company represents and warrants that it has not taken any action that would be prohibited by this Section 5.02(f) during the sixty (60) days prior to the date of this Agreement.

(g)          For purposes of this Agreement:

 (i)          “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal, inquiry or offer with respect to (A) a merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, recapitalization, reorganization, spin-off, share exchange, or other business combination, tender offer, exchange offer or any transaction involving the purchase or acquisition of 20% or more of the shares of Company Stock, including as a result of a primary issuance of Company Stock, or (B) a direct or indirect purchase or acquisition of 20% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or total assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (other than any such proposal or offer made by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates).

 (ii)          “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide Acquisition Proposal not solicited in violation of this Agreement made after the date of this Agreement that did not arise from or in connection with a breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.02 which the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the recommendation of the Committee, concludes in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel), taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal and the Person making the Acquisition Proposal and the likelihood of the proposal being consummated in accordance with its terms, (A) would, if consummated, be more favorable to the Company’s shareholders from a financial point of view than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) is reasonably likely to be completed in accordance with its terms (provided that for the purpose of this definition, references to “20% or more” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%”).

Section 5.03.          Preparation of Proxy Statement; Shareholders Meeting.

(a)          On the earlier of (i) three (3) Business Days after a Permitted Assignment has occurred and a written notice of consummation of a Permitted Assignment has been provided to the Company pursuant to Section 8.05 hereof, (ii) three (3) Business Days after Parent has notified the Company in writing that it will not exercise its right to make a Permitted Assignment or (iii) three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the Assignment Period, the Company shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC in preliminary form the Proxy Statement; provided that in no event shall the Company be required to file the preliminary Proxy Statement prior to the twelfth (12^th) Business Day after the date of this Agreement.  The Company shall promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement, and shall promptly provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand.  The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (with the assistance of Parent) to (i) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments of the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement, including filing any amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement as may be required, (ii) have the Proxy Statement cleared by SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after such filing and (iii) cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s shareholders as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter.  Prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and to propose comments on such document or response (and the Company shall give good faith consideration to including any such reasonable comments in the Proxy Statement (or any supplement or amendment thereto) or response letter) to the extent permitted by Law.

(b)          Parent shall provide to the Company all information concerning Parent and Merger Sub as may be reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the Proxy Statement and shall otherwise assist and cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement and resolution of comments of the SEC or its staff related thereto.  Parent will cause the information relating to Parent or Merger Sub supplied by it for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, at the time of the mailing of the Proxy Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, and at the time of the Shareholders Meeting, not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c)          In accordance with the Company’s Organizational Documents, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the clearance of the Proxy Statement by the SEC, (i) establish a record date for and give notice of a meeting of its shareholders, for the purpose of voting for the approval of this Agreement (the “Shareholders Meeting”) and (ii) duly call, convene and hold the Shareholders Meeting, all in compliance with the applicable provisions of the ICL; provided, that the Company may, and at the request of Parent in the circumstances set forth in following clauses (B) through (D) shall, for up to thirty (30) days (but in any event no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the End Date), postpone or adjourn the Shareholders Meeting only (A) with the written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (B) for the absence of a quorum, (C) to allow additional solicitation of votes in order to obtain the Company Shareholder Approval or (D) as required by Law.  If at any time prior to the Effective Time any event or circumstance relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their respective officers or directors should be discovered by the Company which, pursuant to the Securities Act, Exchange Act or ICL, should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement, the Company shall promptly inform Parent.  Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agree to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement which shall have become false or misleading.  The Company shall cause all documents that the Company is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Merger to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and ICL and, as applicable, not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d)          Unless there has occurred a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 5.02, the Board of Directors of the Company shall make the Company Board Recommendation with respect to the approval of this Agreement, and the Company shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the Company Shareholder Approval.

(e)          In the event that Parent or any Person listed in Section 320(c) of the ICL casts any votes in respect of the Merger, Parent shall disclose to the Company its interest in the shares of Company Stock so voted.  At the Shareholders Meeting, Parent and Merger Sub shall cause any shares of Company Stock owned by them and their Affiliates to be voted in favor of the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.04.          Access to Information; Confidentiality.  From the date hereof until the Effective Time or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company shall (a) provide Parent and its Representatives reasonable access at reasonable times, and upon reasonable notice to the Company, consistent with applicable Law, to the officers and employees, books and records and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including any information reasonably necessary to help Parent analyze and coordinate post-closing tax planning, and (b) reasonably provide any financial and operating data and other information regarding the assets, properties or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may from time to time reasonably request; provided, that (i) such access or information requests do not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ business and shall be subject to their respective reasonable security measures and insurance requirements, (ii) Parent and its Representatives shall not contact or otherwise communicate with the customers or suppliers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than contact or other communications with such customers or suppliers by Parent or its Representatives in the ordinary course of business and not related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) unless, in each instance, approved in writing in advance by the Company, (iii) such access shall not require the Company or its Subsidiaries to allow any environmental testing or sampling and (iv) for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Company or its Subsidiaries to furnish to Parent or its Representatives, or provide Parent or its Representatives with access to, information that outside legal counsel for the Company reasonably determines would (A) give rise to Antitrust Law issues, (B) reasonably be expected to result in the loss of any attorney-client or other legal privilege or (C) not be permitted to be provided to Parent or its Representatives under the terms of any Contract (provided, that, the Company shall have used commercially reasonable best efforts (without payment of any consideration, fees or expenses) to obtain the consent of any third party to such Contract).  Parent acknowledges that the information and access provided pursuant to this Section 5.04 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated May 19, 2017, by and between the Company and B. Riley Principal Investments, LLC (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and shall survive any termination of this Agreement; provided that Section 6 of the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate as of the date of this Agreement.  No investigation pursuant to this Section 5.04 or information provided or received by any Party pursuant to this Agreement will affect or modify any of the representations or warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement.

(e)          In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in this Section 5.05, Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to resolve such objections, if any, as any Governmental Authority may assert under the HSR Act, the Communications Act or any state telecommunications laws with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment and avoid the institution of any Action under any such Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case under the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement so as to enable the Merger to occur as promptly as possible and in any event before the End Date, including by (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of any assets or businesses of Parent or its Affiliates or the Company or its Subsidiaries, (ii) terminating existing, or creating new, relationships, contractual rights or obligations of Parent or its Affiliates or the Company or its Subsidiaries or (iii) effectuating any other change or restructuring of Parent or its Affiliates or the Company or its Subsidiaries or otherwise taking or committing to take any actions that limit the freedom of action of Parent or its Affiliates or the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to, or ability to retain, one or more assets or businesses, to ensure that no Governmental Authority enters any Order or establishes any Law preliminarily or permanently restraining, enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or to ensure that no Governmental Authority with the authority to authorize or approve such consummation fails to do so as promptly as practicable and in any event before the End Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no such remedy shall be (A) required unless contingent upon the occurrence of the Merger, (B) proposed, agreed to or effected by the Company or its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Parent (provided that Parent may compel the Company to agree to any such remedy to the extent such remedy is only effective after the Closing) or (C) required to be agreed to by Parent or its Affiliates if such remedy would, individually or in the aggregate with all such remedies, have or reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations or financial condition of (x) the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or (y) Parent and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger), but with respect to clause (y), such effect shall be measured on a scale relative to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (any remedy or condition that does not meet the standards in (A), (B) and (C), a “Burdensome Condition”).

(f)           Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, cooperate and use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any Action, including any administrative or judicial Action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that is threatened or in effect and that restricts, prevents or prohibits consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the Communications Act or any state telecommunications laws, including by pursuing all reasonable avenues of administrative and judicial appeal; provided, however, that such obligation to contest and resist any Action in no way limits the obligation of Parent to, and to cause its Affiliates to, take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things required by Section 5.05(e).

(g)          Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, enter into any agreement, transaction or any agreement to effect any transaction (including any merger or acquisition) that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or materially and adversely affect Parent’s ability to: (i) obtain any authorizations, approvals, clearances or consents of the FCC or State Regulators necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the termination or expiration of the applicable waiting period and all requisite clearances and approvals under the HSR Act as promptly as practicable and in any event before the End Date; and (ii) avoid the entry of, the commencement of any Action seeking the entry of, or effect the dissolution of, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that restricts, prevents or prohibits consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the Communications Act or any state telecommunications laws.

(h)          Prior to the date of Closing, the Company will file with the ITA, in coordination with Parent, an application for a tax ruling (the “Option Tax Ruling”), and such filing shall not be made until the Company has provided a copy thereof to Parent and included therein all of the reasonable comments of Parent thereon.  The Option Tax Ruling may be subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling, including the limitations related to Section 102 of the Ordinance.  To the extent that prior to the Closing an interim tax ruling shall have been obtained (such ruling, the “Interim Option Tax Ruling”), then all references herein to the Option Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such Interim Option Tax Ruling, until such time that a final definitive Option Tax Ruling is obtained.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable in order to obtain the Option Tax Ruling (and/or the Interim Option Tax Ruling, if applicable).

(i)           Prior to the date of Closing, the Company will file with the ITA an application for a ruling (which application shall be approved by Parent prior to its submission, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) that (i) with respect to holders of Company Stock that are non−Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined in accordance with guidance from the ITA), (A) exempts Parent, the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Taxes levied, assessed, charged or imposed by any Governmental Authority in Israel from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to such holders pursuant to this Agreement, or clarifies that no such obligation exists, or (B) clearly instructs Parent, the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective agents on how such withholding is to be executed, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Company Stock from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied and how to identify any such non−Israeli residents; and (ii) with respect to holders of Company Stock that are Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined in accordance with guidance from the ITA) (x) exempts Parent, the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Taxes levied, assessed, charged or imposed by any Governmental Authority in Israel from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (y) clearly instructs Parent, the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective agents on how such withholding is to be executed, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Company Stock from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied (such ruling, as granted by the ITA, the “Withholding Tax Ruling”).  At any time prior to the Closing Date, upon the request of Parent, the Company shall promptly seek to obtain an interim tax ruling (which application shall be approved by Parent prior to its submission, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to the matters described by this Section 5.05(i) and to the extent such interim ruling has been obtained, then all references herein to the Withholding Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such interim ruling, until such time that a final definitive Withholding Tax Ruling is obtained.

Section 5.06.          Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a)          From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, (i) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, all past and present directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (individually, an “Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and disbursements), judgments, fines, losses, claims damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was at or prior to the Effective Time a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or is or was at or prior to the Effective Time serving at the request of, or to represent the interest of, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, including any charitable or not-for profit public service organization or trade association whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including with respect to acts or omissions occurring in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby), and provide advancement of expenses to the Indemnified Parties in connection therewith (within 10 days of receipt by Parent or the Surviving Corporation from an Indemnified Party of a request therefor), in each case, to the fullest extent that the Company or the Subsidiary for which they were acting in such capacity would have been permitted to indemnify, defend, hold harmless or advance expenses under applicable Law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent such amendment permits the Surviving Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights or rights of advancement of expenses than such Law permitted the Surviving Corporation to provide prior to such amendment); provided that any person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication that such person is not entitled to indemnification, (ii) without limitation to clause (i), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, include and cause to be maintained in effect in the Surviving Corporation’s (or any successor’s) organizational documents for a period of seven years after the Effective Time, provisions regarding elimination of liability of directors, and indemnification of and advancement of expenses to directors and officers of the Company, no less favorable than those contained in the Company’s Organizational Documents as of the date hereof and (iii) not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened Action (and in which indemnification could be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Action or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and cooperates in the defense of such proceeding or threatened Action.  Effective as of and from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation expressly assumes, and agrees to perform, the Company’s obligations under those certain Indemnification Agreements by and between the Company and those individuals listed in Section 5.06 of the Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Indemnification Agreements”) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, but in no event to any lesser extent than the Company would be required to perform them if the transactions contemplated hereby had not taken place.

(b)          In the event that either Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its 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, rights and other assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause proper provision to be made so that such successor or assign shall expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.06.

(c)          Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, and, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay for, at no expense to the individual insureds thereunder, non-cancellable “tail” insurance policies with claims periods of at least seven years from and after the Effective Time from insurance carriers with the same or better claims-paying ability ratings as the Company’s insurance carriers with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies and fiduciary liability insurance policies in place immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) for the persons who are covered by the Company’s existing D&O Insurance, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the insured individuals as the Company’s existing D&O Insurance with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby); provided, however, that the Company shall not pay, or the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay, as the case may be, for such “tail” extended reporting periods aggregate one-time premium costs in excess of the amount set forth in Section 5.06 of the Disclosure Schedule.  If the Company and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, for a period of at least seven years from and after the Effective Time, obtain and maintain in effect, at no expense to any Indemnified Party, policies of insurance for the persons who are covered by the Company’s existing D&O Insurance, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in such existing D&O Insurance, from insurance carriers with the same or better claims-paying ability ratings as the Company’s current D&O Insurance carriers; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay for such policies of insurance aggregate one-time premium costs in excess of the amount set forth in Section 5.06 of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Premium Cap”), in which case the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in effect, at no expense to any Indemnified Party, for a period of at least seven years from the Effective Time for the persons who are covered by the Company’s existing D&O Insurance, policies of insurance with the best overall terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage reasonably available for an annual premium equal to the Premium Cap.  Parent hereby acknowledges that under the Indemnification Agreements, the Company has certain obligations relating to the D&O Insurance coverage to be obtained pursuant to this Agreement, including this Section 5.06(c).  Parent further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Indemnification Agreement, the terms of the Indemnification Agreement will prevail.

(d)          Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.06, upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify Parent thereof, but the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Surviving Corporation of any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party.

(e)          The provisions of this Section 5.06 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable from and after the Effective Time by, each Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by Contract or otherwise.

Section 5.07.          Public Announcements.  Except with respect to any public statement made in accordance with Section 5.02, Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing, and give each other the opportunity to review and comment and give due consideration to reasonable comment by the other Party upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation, except as such Party may reasonably conclude may be required by applicable Law, including SEC rules and regulations, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system.  The Parties agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be in the form heretofore agreed to by the Parties.  Each of the Company and Parent may make any public statements in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or analyst or investor conference calls, so long as such statements are not inconsistent with previous statements made jointly by the Company and Parent.

Section 5.08.          Section 16 Matters.  Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause any dispositions of Company Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each person who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 5.09.          Stock Exchange Delisting.  Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of the NASDAQ Global Select Market to enable the delisting by the Surviving Corporation of Company Stock from the NASDAQ Global Select Market and the deregistration of Company Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time.

Section 5.10.          Takeover Laws.  If any Takeover Law is or may become applicable to the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub and their respective boards of directors shall grant all such approvals and take all such actions as are reasonably necessary or appropriate so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable hereafter on the terms contemplated hereby, and otherwise act reasonably to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Law on such transactions.

Section 5.11.          Shareholder Litigation.  The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any Action against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers by any shareholder of the Company arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and the disclosure of information in connection therewith shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.04, including regarding attorney-client privilege or other applicable legal privilege; provided, that, the Company shall control such defense, settlement or disclosure of information.  The Company shall not settle any litigation against the Company or its directors, executive officers or similar persons by any shareholder of the Company relating to this Agreement, the Merger, or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c)          Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees that the Company, its Subsidiaries and their Representatives have no responsibility for any financing in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.  Accordingly and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or Representatives to provide the cooperation contemplated by this Section 5.14 shall not constitute grounds for (i) Parent or Merger Sub to refuse to consummate the Merger or to terminate this Agreement or (ii) give rise to the payment of the Company Termination Fee.

(e)          by the Company, upon written notice to Parent, prior to the time at which the Company Shareholder Approval has been obtained, to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.02 in response to a Superior Proposal that was not solicited in material violation of this Agreement, in order to enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Company has concluded constitutes a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 5.02; provided, that the Company prior to or concurrently with such termination, pays to Parent in immediately available funds any fees required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.03(b); or

(f)           by Parent, upon written notice to the Company, in the event that (i) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, or (ii) at any time following receipt of an Acquisition Proposal, the Board of Directors of the Company failed to reaffirm its approval or recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger as promptly as practicable (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after receipt of any written request to do so from Parent.

Section 7.03.          Fees and Expenses.

(a)          Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated, it being understood and agreed that Parent shall be solely responsible for payment of any and all filing fees payable under the HSR Act.

(b)          In the event that this Agreement is terminated (1) by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(f) (Change of Recommendation) or (2) by the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(e) (Superior Proposal), then the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent the Company Termination Fee (i) on or before the third Business Day following the date of such termination (in the case of a termination other than pursuant to Section 7.01(e) (Superior Proposal)) or (ii) prior to or concurrently with such termination (in the case of termination by the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(e) (Superior Proposal)), by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. dollars to the applicable account or accounts designated in writing to the Company by Parent.

(c)          In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) (End Date), by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(iii) (Company Shareholder Approval) or by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) (Company Breach), and, in any such case, (i) at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been made to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its shareholders or shall have been publicly announced and such Acquisition Proposal shall not have been publicly withdrawn on a bona fide basis without qualification (1) at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to a termination pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) (End Date), or (2) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Shareholders Meeting in connection with a termination pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(iii) (Company Shareholder Approval) and (ii) within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal that is thereafter consummated, or shall have consummated or shall have approved or recommended to the Company’s shareholders or otherwise not opposed, an Acquisition Proposal that is thereafter consummated, then the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent the Company Termination Fee prior to or concurrently with entry into, or if not pursuant to an agreement, recommendation or consummation of, such Acquisition Proposal by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. dollars to the applicable account or accounts designated in writing to the Company by Parent.  For purposes of only subclause (ii) of this Section 7.03(c), the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 5.02(g)(i), except that the references to “20%” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(d)          Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 7.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, neither the Company nor Parent or Merger Sub would enter into this Agreement.  Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay the Company Termination Fee in accordance with Section 7.03(b) or Section 7.03(c) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the Company Termination Fee (or any portion thereof), then the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the Company Termination Fee at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment plus two percent (2%).  The Company Termination Fee is non-refundable and shall not be set off by or credited against any other payment.

(e)          Upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Parent’s right, if any, to receive the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.03(b) or Section 7.03(c), and the amounts described in Section 7.03(d), shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates against the Company and its former, current or future shareholders, directors, officers, Affiliates, agents or other Representatives for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the failure of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated, and upon payment of such Company Termination Fee and any applicable amount described in Section 7.03(d), none of the Company or any of its former, current or future shareholders, directors, officers, Affiliates, agents or other Representatives shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that, nothing in this Section 7.03(e) shall relieve any Party from any liabilities or damages resulting from any willful and material breach of this Agreement prior to or in connection with such termination.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee more than once.

Section 7.04.          Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval; provided, however, that (a) any such amendment shall be in a writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto and signed on behalf of each of the Parties, (b) after the Company Shareholder Approval has been obtained, there shall be made no amendment that by applicable Law requires further approval by the shareholders of the Company without such further approval, and (c) no amendment shall be made to this Agreement after the Effective Time.

Section 7.05.          Extension; Waiver.  At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein; provided, however, that after receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, no waiver may be made that pursuant to applicable Law requires further approval by the shareholders of the Company without such further approval.  No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing between the Parties.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective except by written instrument executed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.  No extension of time for performance of any obligations or other acts hereunder or under any other agreement shall be deemed to be an extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or any other acts.

Section 8.01.          No Survival.  Each of the Parties, intending to modify any applicable statute of limitations, agree that (a) all of the representations and warranties in this Agreement and in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall terminate effective as of the Effective Time and shall not survive the Effective Time for any purpose, and thereafter there shall be no liability on the part of, nor shall any claim be made by, any Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, members, managers, employees, agents or representatives, in respect thereof, (b) after the Effective Time, there shall be no liability on the part of, nor shall any claim be made by, any Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, members, managers, employees, agents or representatives, in respect of any covenants or agreements that, by their terms, contemplate performance at or prior to the Effective Time, and (c) covenants or agreements that, by their terms, contemplate performance following the Effective Time shall survive the Effective Time for the period set forth therein or until fully performed.

Section 8.03.          Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to herein) contains the entire understanding of the Parties in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (oral or written) between the Parties with respect to such subject matter, other than the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 8.04.          Disclosure Schedule.  The Disclosure Schedule is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of the Company, except and solely to the extent that a representation or warranty set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement specifically states that a correct and complete list of a particular item is set forth on a particular section of the Disclosure Schedule.  The fact that any item or other information is disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed to mean that such information is required to be disclosed by this Agreement.  Inclusion of any item or other matter in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is or is not material, that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or that such item will in fact exceed any applicable threshold limitation set forth in this Agreement.  Headings in the Disclosure Schedule are inserted for reference purposes and for convenience of the reader only, and shall not affect the interpretation thereof or of this Agreement.  The information contained in this Agreement and in the Disclosure Schedule and all exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and nothing contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by the Company, or following the Merger the Surviving Corporation, to any Person of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of Law, breach of contract, or any other liability or responsibility in connection with any pending, threatened, or future matter or proceeding) or a waiver by the Company, or following the Merger the Surviving Corporation, of any rights or remedies against any Person.

                Section 8.05.          Binding Effect; Assignment.  The rights and obligations of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.  Except as expressly provided herein, the rights and obligations of this Agreement may not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties.  Within thirty (30) calendar days from the date hereof (the “Assignment Period”), Parent may assign any and all of its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of Parent, including (A) the Person identified to the Company by Parent in writing concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, or (B) any private investment fund managed by a wholly-owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent (such assignee, the “Proposed Assignee”), provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (the “Permitted Assignment”): (a) the Company’s board of directors determines that, considering the anticipated change in the financial position of the merging companies upon effectiveness of the Permitted Assignment, no reasonable concern exists that the Surviving Corporation will be unable to fulfill the obligations of the Surviving Corporation to its creditors; (b) the proposed assignment would not reasonably be expected to materially delay or significantly increase the risk of not obtaining the expiration or termination of applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act (or any extensions thereof), significantly increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, or significantly increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; (c) the Proposed Assignee is an entity organized under the Laws of any state of the United States; (d) the Proposed Assignee consents in writing to assume all obligations of Parent under this Agreement; (e) the Proposed Assignee affirms in writing that all representations and warranties made in this Agreement with respect to Parent as of the date of this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties made with respect to the Proposed Assignee as of the date of such assignment (other than (i) Section 3.01, to the extent Proposed Assignee’s state of organization is different from that of Parent, and (ii) Section 4.07); (f) Merger Sub, which upon the Permitted Assignment becoming effective shall be a wholly owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Proposed Assignee, re-affirms in writing that all representations and warranties made in this Agreement with respect to Merger Sub as of the date of this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties made with respect to Merger Sub as of the date of such assignment; (g) no assignment shall relieve Parent of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement; and (h) Parent delivers to the Company a written notice of consummation of the Permitted Assignment, together with the true, correct and complete assignment documents containing evidence that the conditions to the Permitted Assignment set forth in clauses (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 8.05 have been satisfied.  Parent shall promptly notify the Company in writing in the event Parent has determined that it will not exercise its right to make a Permitted Assignment.  Any purported assignment in violation of this Agreement is null and void ab initio.

                Section 8.06.          Guaranty of Obligations.  Parent acknowledges and agrees that a Permitted Assignment shall not (a) relieve Parent or Merger Sub of their obligations under this Agreement, (b) enlarge, alter or change any obligation of the Company under this Agreement, or (c) impede the rights of the Company shareholders under this Agreement.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent hereby guarantees all obligations of the Proposed Assignee under this Agreement in the event of a Permitted Assignment, including, without limitation, providing the funds to satisfy the condition to the Company’s obligations to effect the Merger set forth in Section 6.03(c) in the event that the Company brings an action in equity pursuant to Section 8.11 to enforce the provisions of this Agreement against the Proposed Assignee.

Section 8.07.          No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended to confer any legal or equitable rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that the Parties specifically acknowledge and agree that after the Effective Time, (a) Section 5.06 shall be enforceable by each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and (b) each holder of Company Stock shall be entitled to enforce the provisions contained in the first sentence of Section 2.07(d)(iii) and in Section 2.08(c) solely to the extent necessary to receive the consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant thereto.

Section 8.08.          Governing Law.  This Agreement and its enforcement will be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such state without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof, except that (i) the internal affairs of the corporations party hereto that are organized and existing under the ICL and (ii) all other provisions of, or transactions contemplated by, this Agreement that are expressly or otherwise required to be governed by the ICL shall be governed by the ICL.

Section 8.09.          Consent to Jurisdiction.  Each Party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such Court does not have jurisdiction, any Delaware State court, or Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof (the “Delaware Courts”), for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity thereof.  Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceedings brought in such court.  Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or argue in any such court (a) that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with applicable Law, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts or from any legal process commenced in the Delaware Courts (including but not limited to service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in the Delaware Courts is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by the Delaware Courts.

Section 8.10.          Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE, IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 8.11.          Specific Performance.  The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that, without posting bond or other undertaking, the Parties shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.  In the event that any such action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party will allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law.  The Parties further agree that (a) by seeking any remedy provided for in this Section 8.11, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such Party under this Agreement, including monetary damages, and (b) nothing contained in this Section 8.11 shall require any Party to institute any action for (or limit such Party’s right to institute any action for) specific performance under this Section 8.11 before exercising any other right under this Agreement nor shall the commencement of any action pursuant to this Section 8.11 or anything in this Section 8.11 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 7.01 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

Section 8.12.          Severability.  If any provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (a) a substitute and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction, the intent and purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision, and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability of such provision affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 8.13.          Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by means of facsimile and electronically transmitted portable document format (pdf) signature pages), each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
