WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of MSLO and Sequential deem it advisable and in the best interests of each corporation and its respective stockholders that MSLO and Sequential engage in a business combination upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of MSLO, acting upon the recommendation of a special committee comprised solely of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) has approved entry into this Agreement and the merger of Madeline Merger Sub with and into MSLO (the “MSLO Merger”), with MSLO continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TopCo (the “MSLO Surviving Corporation”), pursuant to which each share of Class A common stock, par value $.01 per share, of MSLO (the “MSLO Class A Common Stock”), and Class B common stock, par value $.01 per share, of MSLO (the “MSLO Class B Common Stock” and collectively with the MSLO Class A Common Stock, the “MSLO Common Stock”) shall be converted into the right to receive shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share of TopCo (the “TopCo Common Stock”) and/or cash, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and has directed that this Agreement be submitted to stockholders and recommended to holders of MSLO Common Stock that they adopt and approve this Agreement in accordance with the DGCL on the terms and conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Sequential has approved this Agreement and the merger of Singer Merger Sub with and into Sequential (the “Sequential Merger” and, together with the MSLO Merger, the “Mergers”), with Sequential continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TopCo (the “Sequential Surviving Corporation”), pursuant to which each share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Sequential (the “Sequential Common Stock”) shall be converted into the right to receive shares of TopCo Common Stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, Sequential and MSLO desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Mergers and also to prescribe various conditions to the Mergers;

WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Mergers will qualify as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition to the willingness of Sequential to enter into this Agreement, certain stockholders of MSLO (the “MSLO Supporting Stockholders”) are entering into a voting and support agreement with Sequential substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “MSLO Support Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the MSLO Supporting Stockholders have irrevocably agreed, subject to the terms of the MSLO Support Agreement, to vote all shares of MSLO Common Stock owned by such stockholders in favor of the MSLO Merger; and

WHEREAS, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, certain stockholders of Sequential will be executing and delivering to MSLO a written consent pursuant to which such holders shall adopt and approve this Agreement in accordance with Section 228 and Section 251(c) of the DGCL (as defined below), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, (i) upon the consummation of the MSLO Merger, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Madeline Merger Sub shall vest in MSLO, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Madeline Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of MSLO and (ii) upon the consummation of the Sequential Merger, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Singer Merger Sub shall vest in Sequential, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Singer Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of Sequential.

(i) Each issued and outstanding share of MSLO Common Stock (other than any shares of MSLO Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.1(c) and subject to Section 2.1(f)) shall be converted into the right to receive (A) in the case of a share of MSLO Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive cash (a “Cash Election”) has been properly made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Cash Election Share”), $6.15 in cash, without interest (the “MSLO Cash Consideration”), (B) in the case of a share of MSLO Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive stock (a “Stock Election”) has been properly made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Stock Election Share”), a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of TopCo Common Stock, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares of TopCo Common Stock as specified below, without interest, equal to the quotient determined by dividing (x) the MSLO Cash Consideration by (y) the Sequential Trading Price (the “MSLO Stock Consideration” and, together with the MSLO Cash Consideration, the “MSLO Merger Consideration”) or (C) in the case of a share of MSLO Common Stock with respect to which neither a Cash Election nor a Stock Election has been properly made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Non-Election Share”), the MSLO Cash Consideration or the MSLO Stock Consideration or a combination of both, subject in each case to Section 2.4. As of the MSLO Effective Time, all such shares of MSLO Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. As of the MSLO Effective Time, each holder of a certificate or book-entry share representing any shares of MSLO Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, upon the surrender thereof, subject to Section 2.1(f), the MSLO Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.2.

Such exchange ratio shall be referred to herein as the “Sequential Exchange Ratio”. As of the Sequential Effective Time, all such shares of Sequential Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist.

(d) Treatment of MSLO Equity Awards.

(i) Each outstanding option to acquire shares of MSLO Common Stock that is subject solely to a time-based condition (a “MSLO Stock Option”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the MSLO Effective Time shall, as of the MSLO Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, the holder will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of MSLO Common Stock for which such MSLO Stock Option is exercisable and (B) the excess of the MSLO Cash Consideration over the per share exercise price of such MSLO Stock Option. In addition to the foregoing amounts, to the extent that any such MSLO Stock Option that was granted pursuant to an employment agreement requirement and is identified on Section 2.1(d)(i) of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule as having also been subject to a performance vesting condition that has been satisfied and having included a minimum post-termination exercise period of 18 months, the holder of such MSLO Stock

Option shall receive the further consideration (which shall be payable in the form) specified in such section of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule. The amounts described in this Section 2.1(d)(i) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such MSLO Stock Options; provided, that if the exercise price per share of any such MSLO Stock Option is equal to or greater than the MSLO Cash Consideration, such MSLO Stock Option shall be cancelled without any payments being made or other consideration being delivered in respect thereof.

(ii) Each outstanding option to acquire shares of MSLO Common Stock that is subject to performance-based vesting conditions (a “MSLO Performance Stock Option”) and that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and vested as of the Effective Time (taking into account the next-following sentence) shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, the holder will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of MSLO Common Stock for which such MSLO Performance Stock Option is exercisable and (B) the excess of the MSLO Cash Consideration over the per share exercise price of such MSLO Performance Stock Option. Each unvested MSLO Performance Stock Option shall vest at the Effective Time, unless and to the extent that the specified stock price condition(s) at which such MSLO Performance Stock Option would have become vested in the ordinary course, as specified in the applicable award agreement, are higher than the MSLO Cash Consideration. MSLO Performance Stock Options that remain unvested at the Effective Time pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and in exchange thereof, all such MSLO Performance Stock Options held by any single holder shall collectively be converted into and thereafter evidence the right to receive a cash payment in the amount set forth on Section 2.1(d)(ii) of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule next to such holder’s name. The amounts described in this Section 2.1(d)(ii) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such MSLO Performance Stock Options.

(iii) Each award of restricted stock units corresponding to shares of MSLO Common Stock that is subject solely to a time-based vesting condition (a “MSLO RSU Award”) and that is outstanding immediately prior to the MSLO Effective Time shall, as of the MSLO Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the MSLO Cash Consideration for each share of MSLO Common Stock subject to such MSLO RSU Award.

(iv) Each award of restricted stock units corresponding to shares of MSLO Common Stock that is subject to performance-based vesting conditions (a “MSLO Performance RSU Award”) and that is outstanding immediately prior to the MSLO Effective Time and becomes vested pursuant to the next-following sentence shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the MSLO Cash Consideration for each share of MSLO Common Stock subject to such MSLO Performance RSU Award. Each unvested MSLO Performance RSU Award shall

vest at the MSLO Effective Time, unless and to the extent that the specified stock price condition(s) at which such MSLO Performance RSU Award would have become vested in the ordinary course, as specified in the applicable award agreement, are higher than the MSLO Cash Consideration. MSLO Performance RSU Awards that remain unvested at the MSLO Effective Time pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and in exchange thereof, all such MSLO Performance RSU Awards held by any single holder shall collectively be converted into and thereafter evidence the right to receive a cash payment in the amount set forth on Section 2.1(d)(iv) of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule next to such holder’s name. The amounts described in this Section 2.1(d)(iv) that are payable in respect to MSLO Performance RSU Awards shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such MSLO Performance RSU Awards.

(v) Prior to the MSLO Effective Time, the Board of Directors of MSLO or the appropriate committee thereof shall adopt resolutions providing for the treatment of the MSLO Stock Options, MSLO Performance Stock Options, MSLO RSU Awards and MSLO Performance RSU Awards (collectively, the “MSLO Equity Awards”) as contemplated by this Section 2.1(d). TopCo, MSLO and Sequential shall cooperate to provide any required notices to the holders of MSLO Equity Awards required in connection with the consummation of the Mergers.

(vi) The aggregate cash payment made to each holder of MSLO Stock Options, MSLO Performance Stock Options, MSLO RSU Awards and/or MSLO Performance RSU Awards contemplated by this Section 2.1(d) will be rounded to the nearest whole cent. Any payments made with respect to the MSLO Equity Awards shall be made by the MSLO Surviving Corporation through payroll promptly after the Effective Time.

(e) Treatment of Sequential Equity Awards and Warrants.

(i) Each outstanding option to acquire shares of Sequential Common Stock (a “Sequential Stock Option”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time shall, as of the Sequential Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into an option to purchase, on the terms and conditions (including applicable vesting requirements) under the applicable plan and award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time, (A) that number of shares of TopCo Common Stock, rounded down to the nearest whole share, equal to the product determined by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of Sequential Common Stock subject to such Sequential Stock Option immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time by (y) the Sequential Exchange Ratio, (B) at a per-share exercise price, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, equal to the quotient determined by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of Sequential Common Stock at which such Sequential Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time by (y) the Sequential Exchange Ratio.

(ii) Each award of restricted stock units corresponding to shares of Sequential Common Stock (a “Sequential RSU Award”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time shall, as of the Sequential Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a TopCo restricted stock unit award on the terms and conditions (including applicable vesting requirements) under the applicable plan and award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time, with respect to a number of shares of TopCo Common Stock, rounded up to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying the number of shares of Sequential Common Stock subject to such Sequential RSU Award immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time by the Sequential Exchange Ratio. To the extent that the Sequential RSU Awards vest in whole or in part based on the achievement of performance goals, the compensation committee of the Sequential Board shall appropriately adjust such performance goals to reflect the effect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iii) Each unvested award of restricted Sequential Common Stock (a “Sequential Restricted Stock Award”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time shall, as of the Sequential Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a TopCo restricted stock award on the terms and conditions (including applicable vesting requirements) under the applicable plan and award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time, with respect to a number of shares of TopCo Common Stock, rounded up to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying the number of shares of Sequential Common Stock subject to such Sequential Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time by the Sequential Exchange Ratio. To the extent that the Sequential Restricted Stock Awards vest in whole or in part based on the achievement of performance goals, the compensation committee of the Sequential Board shall appropriately adjust such performance goals to reflect the effect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iv) Each warrant to purchase any shares of Sequential Common Stock or other equity interests (a “Sequential Warrant”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a warrant to purchase shares of TopCo Common Stock on the terms and conditions (including applicable strike price and vesting requirements) under the applicable plan and award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, with respect to a number of shares of TopCo Common Stock, rounded up to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying the number of shares of Sequential Common Stock subject to such Sequential Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Sequential Exchange Ratio. TopCo and Sequential shall cooperate to provide any required notices to the holders of Sequential Equity Awards and Sequential Warrants required in connection with the consummation of the Mergers.

(v) Prior to the Sequential Effective Time, the Sequential Board or the appropriate committee thereof shall adopt resolutions providing for the treatment of (i)

the Sequential Stock Options, Sequential RSU Awards and Sequential Restricted Stock Awards (collectively, the “Sequential Equity Awards”) and (ii) the Sequential Warrants, each as contemplated by this Section 2.1(e). As soon as practicable after the Sequential Effective Time, TopCo shall prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-8 (or file such other appropriate form) registering a number of shares of TopCo Common Stock necessary to fulfill TopCo’s obligations under this Section 2.1(e). TopCo shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of TopCo Common Stock for delivery with respect to the Sequential Equity Awards and Sequential Warrants assumed by it in accordance with this Section 2.1(e). TopCo and Sequential shall cooperate to provide any required notices to the holders of Sequential Equity Awards and Sequential Warrants required in connection with the consummation of the Mergers.

(f) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of MSLO Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the MSLO Effective Time that are held by any holder who has not voted in favor of the MSLO Merger and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Merger Consideration, unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect, or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost, such holder’s right to appraisal under the DGCL. Dissenting Shares shall be treated in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or loses any such right to appraisal, each such share of MSLO Common Stock of such holder shall thereupon be converted into and become exchangeable only for the right to receive, as of the later of the MSLO Effective Time and the time that such right to appraisal has been irrevocably lost, withdrawn or expired, the MSLO Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1(f), if this Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time, then the right of any stockholder to be paid the fair value of such stockholder’s Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will cease. MSLO shall serve prompt notice to Sequential of any demands for appraisal of any shares of MSLO Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by MSLO relating to rights to appraisal, and Sequential shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. MSLO shall not, without the prior written consent of Sequential, make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle any such demands, and prior to the Effective Time, Sequential shall not, without the prior written consent of MSLO (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

2.2 Exchange of Shares and Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. No later than five Business Days prior to the mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Sequential shall designate a bank, trust company or nationally recognized shareholder services provider reasonably acceptable to MSLO (the “Exchange Agent”), for the purpose of receiving Elections and exchanging, in accordance with this ARTICLE II, Certificates and Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration. Prior to the Effective Time, TopCo shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, as needed, the Merger Consideration to be delivered in respect of the number of shares of TopCo Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1 in exchange for outstanding shares of MSLO

Common Stock and shares of Sequential Common Stock. In addition, at or prior to the MSLO Effective Time, Sequential shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of MSLO Common Stock at the MSLO Effective Time, for exchange in accordance with this ARTICLE II, immediately available funds equal to the aggregate MSLO Cash Consideration (other than in respect of any Dissenting Shares), including any additional amounts necessary to fund the adjustment set forth in Section 2.1(a)(iv). In addition, Sequential shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e). All shares of TopCo Common Stock and cash deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be referred to herein as the “Exchange Fund”. Sequential shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely pay the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail (1) to each holder of record of a certificate (a “Sequential Certificate”) that immediately prior to the Sequential Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Sequential Common Stock and (2) to each holder of record of a certificate (a “MSLO Certificate” and, together with a Sequential Certificate, a “Certificate”) that immediately prior to the MSLO Effective Time represented outstanding shares of MSLO Common Stock, in each case whose shares were converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(j)) to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as agreed among the parties hereto) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or affidavits of loss in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation or affidavit of loss to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or affidavit of loss shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that number of whole shares of TopCo Common Stock and/or cash, as applicable, that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE II, and the Certificate or affidavit of loss so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Promptly after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the third Business Day thereafter, Sequential shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and deliver to each holder of uncertificated shares of Sequential Common Stock represented by book-entry (the “Sequential Book-Entry Shares”) and uncertificated shares of MSLO Common Stock represented by book-entry (the “MSLO Book-Entry Shares” and, together with the Sequential Book-Entry Shares, the “Book-Entry Shares”) the applicable Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE II in respect of such Book-Entry Shares, without such holder being required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent, and such Book-Entry Shares shall then be cancelled. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue for the benefit of holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the applicable Merger Consideration payable. If any portion of the applicable Merger Consideration is to be registered in the name of a person other than the person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration of such Merger Consideration that the surrendered Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such delivery of the applicable Merger Consideration shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of

such registration in the name of a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2(b), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the applicable Merger Consideration.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. All TopCo Common Stock to be paid as a portion of the Merger Consideration shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to TopCo Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to any shares of TopCo Common Stock represented thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.2(e), in each case until the surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this ARTICLE II. Subject to the effect of applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of shares of TopCo Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of TopCo Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of TopCo Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of TopCo Common Stock.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Sequential Common Stock and MSLO Common Stock. All shares of TopCo Common Stock issued and cash paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE II (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.2(e)) shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Sequential Common Stock or MSLO Common Stock, as applicable, theretofore represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, subject, however, to the obligation of TopCo to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by Sequential or MSLO, as applicable, on such shares of Sequential Common Stock or MSLO Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that remain unpaid at the Effective Time, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Sequential Surviving Corporation of the shares of Sequential Common Stock, or the MSLO Surviving Corporation of the shares of MSLO Common Stock, that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to TopCo or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE II, except as otherwise provided by Law.

(e) Fractional Shares.

(i) No certificates representing fractional shares of TopCo Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of TopCo.

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of MSLO Common Stock converted pursuant to the MSLO Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of TopCo Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fraction as determined below. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (i) the number of full shares of TopCo Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent by TopCo for issuance to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares over (ii) the aggregate number of full shares of TopCo Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (such excess being herein referred to as the “Excess Shares”). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for such holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, shall sell the Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on Nasdaq all in the manner provided herein.

(iii) The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on Nasdaq and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the proceeds of any such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for such holders. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of such proceeds to which each holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares then held by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with respect to any fractional share interests, the Exchange Agent shall promptly pay such amounts to such holders subject to and in accordance with this Section 2.2(e).

(f) Return of Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(a) (including any interest or other amounts received with respect thereto) that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for nine months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to TopCo, upon demand, and any holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE II shall thereafter be entitled to look only to TopCo for payment of their claim for any shares of TopCo Common Stock, any MSLO Cash Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of TopCo Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to TopCo Common Stock, as applicable.

(g) No Liability. None of Sequential, MSLO, TopCo, Singer Merger Sub, the Sequential Surviving Corporation, Madeline Merger Sub, the MSLO Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to seven years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any cash,

any shares of TopCo Common Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares, as applicable, of TopCo Common Stock or any dividends or distributions with respect to TopCo Common Stock in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of TopCo, free and clear of all claims or interests of any person previously entitled thereto.

(h) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Sequential, provided, that no losses on such investments shall affect the cash payable to former holders of shares of MSLO Common Stock pursuant to this ARTICLE II. TopCo shall replace, as necessary, any cash deposited with the Exchange Agent lost through any investment made pursuant to this Section 2.2(h). Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to TopCo.

(i) Withholding Rights. Each of TopCo, Sequential, MSLO, Singer Merger Sub, the Sequential Surviving Corporation, Madeline Merger Sub, the MSLO Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts 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 applicable Tax Law. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, TopCo shall make all payments of stock (other than payments treated as compensation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) under this Agreement free and clear of all deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes other than “backup withholding” if required under Section 3406 of the Code.

(j) 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 TopCo or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as TopCo or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Sequential Common Stock or shares of MSLO Common Stock, as the case may be, formerly represented thereby, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of TopCo Common Stock, and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of TopCo Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

2.3 Election Procedures. Each holder of record of shares of MSLO Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Election Deadline (a “MSLO Holder”) shall have the right, subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE II, to submit an election on or prior to the Election Deadline in accordance with the following procedures.

(a) Each MSLO Holder may specify in a request made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (an “Election”) (i) the number of shares of MSLO Common Stock owned by such MSLO Holder with respect to which such MSLO Holder desires to make a Stock Election, (ii) the number of shares of MSLO Common Stock owned by such MSLO Holder with

respect to which such MSLO Holder desires to make a Cash Election and (iii) the particular shares for which the MSLO Holder desires to make either such election, and the order in which either such election is to apply to any such shares if the election is subject to proration under Section 2.4. Any MSLO Holder who wishes to make an Election shall be required to waive all dissenters’ rights in connection with making such Election.

(b) TopCo shall prepare a form reasonably acceptable to MSLO and Sequential (the “Form of Election”), which shall be mailed by TopCo to record holders of MSLO Common Stock so as to permit those MSLO Holders to exercise their right to make an Election prior to the Election Deadline.

(c) TopCo shall mail or cause to be mailed or delivered, as applicable, the Form of Election to record holders of MSLO Common Stock as of the record date for the MSLO Stockholders Meeting not less than 20 Business Days prior to the anticipated Election Deadline. TopCo shall make available one or more Forms of Election as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all persons who become holders of record of MSLO Common Stock during the period following the record date for the MSLO Stockholders Meeting and prior to the Election Deadline.

(d) Any Election shall have been made properly only if the Exchange Agent shall have received, prior to the Election Deadline, a Form of Election properly completed and signed and accompanied by MSLO Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the MSLO Certificates, subject to Section 2.2(j)) to which such Form of Election relates, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of MSLO or by an appropriate customary guarantee of delivery of such MSLO Certificates, as set forth in such Form of Election, from a firm that is an eligible guarantor institution (as defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act); provided, that such MSLO Certificates are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent by the time required in such guarantee of delivery, and, in the case of MSLO Book-Entry Shares, any additional documents specified in the procedures set forth in the Form of Election. Failure to deliver shares of MSLO Common Stock covered by such a guarantee of delivery within the time set forth on such guarantee shall be deemed to invalidate any otherwise properly made Election, unless otherwise determined by Sequential, in its sole and absolute discretion. As used herein, unless otherwise jointly agreed in advance by Sequential and MSLO, “Election Deadline” means 5:00 p.m. local time (in the city in which the principal office of the Exchange Agent is located) on the later of (i) the date immediately prior to the MSLO Stockholders Meeting and (ii) if on the date immediately prior to the MSLO Stockholders Meeting, the condition set forth in Section 7.1(d) has not been satisfied, three Business Days prior to the Closing Date. MSLO and Sequential shall issue a joint press release reasonably satisfactory to each of them announcing the anticipated date of the Election Deadline not more than 15 Business Days before, and at least five Business Days prior to, the anticipated date of the Election Deadline. If the Closing is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Deadline shall be similarly delayed to a subsequent date (which shall be three Business Days prior to the Closing Date) and MSLO and Sequential shall cooperate to promptly publicly announce such rescheduled Election Deadline.

(e) Any MSLO Holder may, at any time prior to the Election Deadline, change or revoke such MSLO Holder’s Election by written notice received by the Exchange

Agent prior to the Election Deadline accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Form of Election or by withdrawal prior to the Election Deadline of such MSLO Holder’s MSLO Certificates, or of the guarantee of delivery of such MSLO Certificates, or any documents in respect of MSLO Book-Entry Shares, previously deposited with the Exchange Agent. After an Election is validly made with respect to any shares of MSLO Common Stock, any subsequent transfer of such shares of MSLO Common Stock shall automatically revoke such Election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Elections shall be automatically deemed revoked upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of written notification from MSLO or Sequential that this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. The Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine if any Election is not properly made with respect to any shares of MSLO Common Stock (none of Sequential, MSLO, TopCo, Singer Merger Sub, Madeline Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent being under any duty to notify any stockholder of any such defect). In the event the Exchange Agent makes such a determination, such Election shall be deemed to be not in effect, and the shares of MSLO Common Stock covered by such Election shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be Non-Election Shares, unless a proper Election is thereafter timely made with respect to such shares.

(f) Sequential and MSLO, in the exercise of their reasonable discretion, shall have the joint right to make all determinations, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, governing the manner and extent to which Elections are to be taken into account in making the determinations prescribed by Section 2.4.

2.4 Proration.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the total number of shares of MSLO Common Stock to be converted into the MSLO Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Dissenting Shares determined as of the MSLO Effective Time) (the “Cash Conversion Number”) shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $176,681,757.15 by (y) the MSLO Cash Consideration. All other shares of MSLO Common Stock (other than cancelled shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into MSLO Stock Consideration.

(b) Within three Business Days after the MSLO Effective Time, Sequential shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the allocation among the holders of shares of MSLO Common Stock of the rights to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration and the MSLO Stock Consideration as follows:

(i) first, with respect to each MSLO Holder who has made a Cash Election with respect to one-half of the number of shares of such MSLO Holder’s MSLO Common Stock and a Stock Election with respect to one-half of the number of shares of such MSLO Holder’s MSLO Common Stock, all of such MSLO Holder’s Cash Election Shares will be converted into the MSLO Cash Consideration and all of such MSLO Holder’s Stock Election Shares will be converted into the MSLO Stock Consideration; and

(ii) then, if the aggregate remaining number of shares of MSLO Common Stock with respect to which Cash Elections shall have been made (which, for

this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Dissenting Shares determined as of the MSLO Effective Time but exclude the shares of MSLO Common Stock converted into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(i)) (the “Total Cash Election Number”) exceeds the Adjusted Cash Conversion Number, then (A) all Stock Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Stock Consideration and (B) Cash Election Shares of each holder thereof will be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Cash Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Cash Conversion Number and the denominator of which is the Total Cash Election Number (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.4(a), whether fractions of Cash Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the MSLO Stock Consideration; or

(iii) if the Total Cash Election Number is less than the Adjusted Cash Conversion Number (the amount by which the Adjusted Cash Conversion Number exceeds the Total Cash Election Number being referred to herein as the “Shortfall Number”), then all remaining Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration, and the Stock Election Shares and Non-Election Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(A) if the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Stock Consideration, and the Non-Election Shares of each holder thereof shall convert into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.4(a), whether fractions of Non-Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the MSLO Stock Consideration; or

(B) if the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares, then (1) all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration and (2) the Stock Election Shares of each holder thereof shall convert into the right to receive the MSLO Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Stock Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which (1) the Shortfall Number exceeds (2) the total number of Non-Election Shares, and the denominator of which is the total number of Stock Election Shares (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.4(a), whether fractions of Stock Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Stock Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the MSLO Stock Consideration.

2.5 Certain Adjustments. If between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Sequential Common Stock or MSLO Common Stock are changed into a

different number of shares by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, dividend payable in stock or other securities or other similar transaction, the Sequential Merger Consideration and related provisions or the MSLO Merger Consideration and related provisions, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of Sequential Common Stock and MSLO Common Stock or Sequential Equity Awards and MSLO Equity Awards the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange, dividend or other similar transaction. Nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be construed to permit Sequential or MSLO to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

2.6 Further Assurances. If, at any time MSLO or Sequential reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Mergers or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement at the Effective Time, then MSLO, Sequential, TopCo, the MSLO Surviving Corporation and the Sequential Surviving Corporation and their respective officers and directors shall execute and deliver all such proper instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Mergers and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

All commitment and other fees required to be paid on or prior to the date hereof under the Financing Commitments have been paid and, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to Sequential’s obligations in Section 7.1 and 7.3 hereunder, Sequential does not have any reason to believe that it will not be able to satisfy any term or condition of closing of the Financing that is required to be satisfied as a condition to availability of the Financing or that the full amount of the Financing will not be made available to Sequential on the Closing Date and, as of the date hereof, Sequential is not aware of the existence of any facts or events that would reasonably be expected to cause such conditions to the Financing not to be satisfied or the full amount of the Financing not to be available.

5.5 No Solicitation; Recommendation of the Merger.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and continuing until 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on the 30th calendar day after the date of this Agreement (the “No Shop Period Start Date”), MSLO and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants or other advisors, agents or representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) shall have the right to (i) initiate, solicit and encourage any inquiry or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal, including by providing information (including non-public information and data) regarding, and affording access to the business, properties, assets, books, records and personnel of, MSLO and its Subsidiaries to any Person pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement; provided that MSLO shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours) make available to Sequential any non-public information provided to any such Person or Persons or Representatives (other than immaterial information) that was not previously provided to Sequential, and (ii) engage in, enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Persons or groups of Persons with respect to any Acquisitions Proposals and cooperate with or assist or participate in, or facilitate any such inquiries, proposals, discussions or negotiations or any effort or attempt to make any Acquisition Proposals. No later than 48 hours after the No Shop Period Start Date, MSLO shall notify Sequential in writing of the identity of any Person that submitted any Acquisition Proposal prior to the No Shop Period Start Date, and shall provide to Sequential a copy of such Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Except as expressly permitted in this Section 5.5(b), from and after the No Shop Period Start Date until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with ARTICLE VIII, MSLO shall not, and shall not permit or authorize any of its Subsidiaries or any Representative of MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to (i) solicit, initiate, endorse, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiry, proposal or offer with respect to, or the making or completion of, any Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry, proposal or offer that is reasonably likely to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information or data with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, any Acquisition Proposal or (iii) resolve, agree or propose to do any of the foregoing. Except as expressly permitted in this Section 5.5(b) (including with respect to any Excluded Party as provided in the last sentence hereof), as of the No Shop Period Start Date, MSLO shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and the Representatives of MSLO and its Subsidiaries to, (A) immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions and negotiations with any Person conducted theretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal and (B) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time following the No Shop Period Start Date and prior to the time the MSLO Stockholder Approval is obtained, (1) MSLO receives a written Acquisition Proposal from any Person that the MSLO Board believes in good faith to be bona fide, (2) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of this Section 5.5, (3) the MSLO Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal, and (4) the MSLO Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to take the actions referred to in clause (x) or (y) below would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of MSLO under applicable Law, then MSLO may (x) furnish information regarding, and afford access to the business, properties, assets, books, records and personnel of, MSLO and its Subsidiaries to the Person or Persons making such Acquisition Proposal and to the Representatives of such Person or Persons pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement containing terms no less favorable to MSLO than those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement (any such confidentiality agreement, an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”); provided, that any non-public information provided to any such Person or Persons or Representatives (other than immaterial information) that was not previously provided to Sequential shall be promptly provided to Sequential and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person or Persons making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the passage of the No Shop Period Start Date, until 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on the 45th calendar day after the date of this Agreement (provided such date and time shall be extended to the extent and during such period thereafter as MSLO is in active discussions with an Excluded Party), MSLO may continue to engage in the activities described in Section 5.5(a) with respect to any Excluded Party, including with respect to any amended or modified Acquisition Proposal submitted by any Excluded Party following the No Shop Period Start Date, and the restrictions in this Section 5.5(b) shall not apply with respect thereto.

(i) (A) withdraw (or modify or qualify in any manner adverse to Sequential) the recommendation or declaration of advisability by the MSLO Board or any such committee of this Agreement, the MSLO Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, (B) recommend or otherwise declare advisable the approval by MSLO stockholders of any Acquisition Proposal, or (C) resolve, agree or propose to take any such actions (each such action set forth in this Section 5.5(c)(i) being referred to herein as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”); or

(ii) authorize, adopt or approve an Acquisition Proposal or cause or permit MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other Contract (each, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) constituting or related to, or which is intended to or is reasonably likely to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement), or resolve, agree or propose to take any such actions.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the time the MSLO Stockholder Approval is obtained, the MSLO Board (at the recommendation of the Special Committee) may, (x) effect an Adverse Recommendation Change if the MSLO Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel) that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, either in response to a Superior Proposal or an Intervening Event or (y) solely in response to a Superior Proposal received after the date hereof that was unsolicited and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.5, cause MSLO to enter into a binding Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect thereto and terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i); provided, however, that the MSLO Board may only effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i) if (and in no other circumstances may the MSLO Board effect an Adverse Recommendation Change):

(i) MSLO notifies Sequential in writing at least three Business Days in advance that it intends to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i), which notice shall specify the basis for the Adverse Recommendation Change or termination and, in the case of a Superior Proposal, specifies the terms and conditions of, and the identity of the Person making, such Superior Proposal, and contemporaneously furnishes a copy (if any) of the proposed Alternative Acquisition Agreement and any other relevant transaction documents (it being understood and agreed that any material amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such Superior Proposal or material change in the facts or circumstances relating to an Intervening Event shall require a new written notice by MSLO and a new three Business Day period);

(ii) after providing such notice and prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change or terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i), if Sequential makes a proposal during such the three Business Day period to adjust the terms and conditions of this Agreement, MSLO shall, and shall cause its financial and legal advisors to, negotiate with Sequential in good faith (to the extent Sequential seeks to negotiate) to make any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as would permit the MSLO Board not to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i); and

(iii) the MSLO Board shall have considered in good faith any changes to this Agreement offered in writing by Sequential no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day of such three Business Day period and shall have determined (x) in the event the MSLO Board’s determination pursuant to subparagraph (c) above is in response to a Superior Proposal, that such Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such changes offered in writing by Sequential were to be given effect or (y) in the event the MSLO Board’s determination pursuant to subparagraph (c) above is in response to an Intervening Event, that such changes would not affect the MSLO Board’s determination of the need for an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to such Intervening Event.

For the avoidance of doubt, the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5(d) shall apply both prior to and following the No Shop Period Start Date, including with respect to any Acquisition Proposal received from any Excluded Party.

(e) Following the No Shop Period Start Date, MSLO promptly (and in any event within 48 hours of receipt) shall advise Sequential, orally or in writing, in the event MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives receives (i) any indication by any Person that it is considering making an Acquisition Proposal (including any request by any Person to waive any standstill or similar provision applicable to such Person), (ii) any inquiry or request for information, discussion or negotiation that is reasonably likely to lead to or that contemplates an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any proposal or offer that is or is reasonably likely to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, in each case together with a description of the material terms and conditions of and facts surrounding any such indication, inquiry, request, proposal or offer, the identity of the Person making any such indication, inquiry, request, proposal or offer, and a copy of any written proposal, offer or draft agreement provided by such Person. MSLO (or its outside counsel) shall, orally or in writing, keep Sequential (or its outside counsel) reasonably informed on a timely basis (and in any event within 48 hours) with respect to any change to price or other material terms of such Acquisition Proposal. MSLO (or its outside counsel) shall, promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof (and in any event within 48 hours), provide Sequential (or its outside counsel) with copies of material agreements comprising such Acquisition Proposal and any amendments thereto. Without limiting any of the foregoing, MSLO shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours) notify Sequential, orally or in writing, if it determines to begin providing information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal pursuant to this Section 5.5.

(f) MSLO agrees that any material violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.5 by any Representative of MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement by MSLO.

(g) Nothing contained in Section 5.5 shall prohibit MSLO, the MSLO Board or any other committee of the MSLO Board from (i) complying with its disclosure obligations under U.S. federal or state Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal, including taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e–2(a), Rule 14d–9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M–A promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to stockholders) or (ii) making any “stop-look-and listen” communication to the stockholders of MSLO pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act; provided, that neither the MSLO Board nor any committee thereof shall effect an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the applicable requirements of Section 5.5 shall have been satisfied.

(h) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal or offer with respect to any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of transactions, and whether through any merger, reorganization, consolidation, tender offer, self-tender, exchange offer, stock acquisition, asset acquisition, binding share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture or otherwise, of (A) assets or businesses of MSLO and its Subsidiaries that generate 20% or more of the net revenues or net income or that represent 20% or more of the total assets (based on fair market value) of MSLO and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, immediately prior to such transaction, or (B) 20% or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding MSLO Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, including any tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any Person beneficially owning twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding MSLO Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, in each case other than the MSLO Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(ii) “Excluded Party” means a Person or group of Persons from whom MSLO or any of its Representatives has received, after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the No Shop Period Start Date, a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that the Madeline Board has determined in good faith constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal;

(iii) “Intervening Event” means a material event or circumstance that was not known to the MSLO Board prior to the execution of this Agreement (or if known, the consequences of which were not known or reasonably foreseeable), which event or circumstance, or any material consequence thereof, becomes known to the MSLO Board prior to the receipt of MSLO Stockholder Approval; provided, that in no event shall the receipt, existence or terms of an Acquisition Proposal or any matter relating thereto or consequence thereof constitute an Intervening Event; and

(iv) “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide binding written Acquisition Proposal that the MSLO Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor), taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the proposal and the Person making the proposal, including the financing terms thereof, is (A) more favorable to the stockholders of MSLO from a financial point of view than the MSLO Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any adjustment to the terms and conditions proposed by Sequential in response to such proposal) and

(B) reasonably likely to be completed on the terms proposed; provided, that, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” references in the term “Acquisition Proposal” to “20%” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

5.6 Directors. Prior to the Effective Time, MSLO shall cause each member of the MSLO Board, other than any persons designated by Sequential at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, to execute and deliver a letter effectuating his or her resignation as a director of the MSLO Board effective as of the Effective Time.

5.7 Financing.

(a) Sequential shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Financing Commitments (including the exercise of “market flex” provisions in the related fee letter) as promptly as practicable following the date hereof (taking into account the expected timing of the Closing). Sequential shall comply with its obligations, and enforce its rights, under the Financing Commitments in a timely and diligent manner. In the event that all conditions to the Financing Commitments set forth therein have been, or upon funding will be, satisfied, Sequential shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the lenders party thereto and the other Persons providing such Financing to comply with their obligations under the Financing Commitments and the definitive financing agreements entered into in connection with the Financing and to fund the Financing required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay related fees, costs and expenses on or prior to the Closing Date. Sequential will keep MSLO reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing and to satisfy the conditions thereof, including (A) promptly notifying MSLO of (1) any material breach or default by any party to the Financing Commitments or any definitive financing agreement entered into in connection with the Financing, if such breach or default would reasonably be expected to affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Financing and (2) the receipt by any of Sequential or any of its Representatives of any written notice or other written communication from any lender committing or providing the Financing or other Person with respect to (x) any actual, threatened or alleged breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Financing Commitments or any definitive financing agreement entered into in connection with the Financing or any provision thereof (including any proposal by any lender or other Person to withdraw or terminate or make any material change in the terms of the Financing Commitment that would reasonably be expected to affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Financing) or (y) any material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Financing Commitment or any definitive financing agreement entered into in connection with the Financing, if such dispute or disagreement would reasonably be expected to affect the timely availability of, or amount of, the Financing and (B) upon MSLO’s reasonable request, advising and updating MSLO, in a reasonable level of detail, with respect to status of the Financing. Sequential may replace or amend all or any portion of the Financing Commitments; provided, that such replacement or amendment would not (i) reduce the aggregate cash amount of proceeds of the Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Financing (except as set forth in any “market flex” provisions existing on the date hereof in the related fee letter)), (ii) impose new or additional conditions, or otherwise expand any conditions, to the receipt of the Financing from those set forth in the

Financing Commitments on the date hereof, (iii) reasonably be expected to prevent, or materially delay or impair, the availability of the full amount of the Financing or make the funding of the Financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing less likely to occur, (iv) adversely affect the ability of Sequential to enforce its rights against any lender or any other Person providing or committing to provide the Financing or (v) adversely impact the ability of Sequential to cause TopCo to timely consummate the MSLO Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Agreement, references to “Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments as replaced, amended or modified as permitted hereby, including, if applicable, pursuant to an alternative financing that is in compliance herewith, and references to “Financing Commitments” shall include such documents as replaced, amended or modified as permitted hereby, including, if applicable, pursuant to an alternative financing in compliance herewith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to replacements or amendments permitted hereby, Sequential shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Financing Commitments until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, (ii) satisfy on a timely basis (taking into account the expected timing of the Closing) all conditions and covenants applicable to Sequential in the Financing Commitments and any definitive agreements entered into in connection therewith at or prior to Closing and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions consistent with those contemplated by the Financing Commitments and (iv) consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing. If, notwithstanding the use of reasonable best efforts by Sequential to satisfy its obligations under this Section 5.7, any portion of the Financing or the Financing Commitments (or any definitive financing agreement relating thereto) expire or are terminated or otherwise become unavailable prior to the Closing, in whole or in part, for whatever reason, Sequential shall (i) promptly notify MSLO of such expiration, termination or unavailability and the reason therefor and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to promptly arrange and obtain alternative financing from alternative sources, in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay related fees, costs and expenses as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event and which do not include any conditions to the consummation of such alternative financing that are more onerous than the conditions set forth in the Financing Commitments. True, complete and correct copies of each commitment letter and other agreement relating to the alternative financing will be promptly provided to MSLO. Sequential acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of the Financing is not a condition to the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Financing has not been obtained, Sequential will continue to be obligated, subject to the fulfillment or waiver of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.3, to complete the Mergers and consummate the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Prior to the Closing, MSLO shall use reasonable best efforts to provide to Sequential, at Sequential’s sole expense, all cooperation reasonably requested by Sequential in connection with the Financing, including by using reasonable best efforts in (i) furnishing Sequential and its lenders any information and financial statements reasonably requested by such Persons as is customarily required in connection with the execution of debt financings similar to the Financing (provided, that MSLO will have no obligation to prepare pro forma financial information or post-closing financial information), (ii) participating, but only together with the executive officers of Sequential and other members of senior management and representatives of Sequential, and at a time and place acceptable to the executive officers of MSLO, in a reasonable

number of meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings with the parties acting as lead arrangers or agents for, and prospective lenders and purchasers of, the Financing and the executive officers of MSLO and other members of senior management and representatives of MSLO), presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Financing, as reasonably requested by Sequential, (iii) assisting Sequential and its lenders in the preparation of customary bank information memoranda, rating agency presentations and lender presentations relating to the Financing, (iv) cooperating with the marketing efforts of Sequential and its lenders for all or any portion of the Financing, (v) providing information with respect to the assets of MSLO and its Subsidiaries that will serve as collateral for the Financing as is reasonably requested by Sequential and, subject to Section 6.2, providing reasonable access to Sequential and its lenders, during normal working hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to allow them to conduct audit examinations and appraisals with respect to such collateral, (vi) seeking to cause its auditors to provide assistance to Sequential consistent with their customary practice (including to provide and consent to the use of their audit reports relating to the consolidated financial statements of MSLO and its Subsidiaries), in each case on customary terms and consistent with their customary practice in connection with financings similar to the Financing, (vii) so long as such documents and other information are reasonably requested by Sequential in writing at least ten Business Days prior to the Closing Date, providing all documentation and other information required by regulatory authorities with respect to MSLO and its Subsidiaries under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, as amended, and (viii) seeking to arrange for customary payoff letters, lien terminations and instruments of discharge to be delivered at Closing providing for the payoff, discharge and termination on the Closing Date of all indebtedness contemplated by the Financing Commitment to be paid off, discharged and terminated at Closing; provided, however, that, irrespective of the above, (A) such requested cooperation shall not unreasonably interfere with the business or the ongoing operations of MSLO and its Subsidiaries, (B) nothing in this Section 5.7(b) shall require cooperation to the extent that it would (x) cause any condition to the Closing set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.3 to not be satisfied or otherwise cause any breach of this Agreement or (y) reasonably be expected to conflict with or violate MSLO’s or any its Subsidiaries’ organizational documents or any applicable Law, (C) prior to the Closing, none of the directors or managers of MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries, acting in such capacity, shall be required to execute, deliver or enter into or perform any agreement, certificate, document or instrument with respect to the Financing or adopt any resolutions approving the agreements, documents and instruments pursuant to which the Financing is obtained, and (D) none of MSLO’s or its Subsidiaries’ officers or employees shall be required to execute, deliver or enter into, or perform any agreement, document or instrument with respect to the Financing that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 5.7(b) above, none of MSLO or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to bear any cost or expense or to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment in connection or incur or assume any other liability or obligation with the Financing prior to the Effective Time except in the case of expenses that are reimbursed as provided in Section 8.2(b).

Each of Sequential and MSLO shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing. Each of Sequential and MSLO shall furnish all information concerning such Person and its Affiliates to the other, and provide such other assistance, as may be reasonably requested, in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Form S-4, Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Information Statement. The Form S-4 and Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include all information reasonably requested by such other party to be included therein. Each of Sequential and MSLO shall promptly notify the other upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Form S-4 or Proxy Statement/Prospectus and shall provide the other with copies of all correspondence between it and its Representatives, on one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand. Each of Sequential and MSLO shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Form S-4 or Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing the Form S-4 (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or mailing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, each of Sequential and MSLO (i) shall provide the other an opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (including the proposed final version of such document or response) and (ii) shall include in such document or response all comments reasonably proposed by the other. Each of Sequential and MSLO shall advise the other, promptly after receipt of notice thereof, of the time of effectiveness of the Form S-4, the issuance of any stop

order relating thereto or the suspension of the qualification of shares of TopCo Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, and each of Sequential and MSLO shall use its reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated. Sequential shall also cause TopCo to take any other action required to be taken under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any applicable foreign or state securities or “blue sky” laws and the rules and regulations thereunder in connection with the Mergers, the issuance of the Merger Consideration and the issuance of shares of TopCo Common Stock under the Sequential Benefit Plans. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Sequential, MSLO, TopCo, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Sequential, MSLO or TopCo that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by law, disseminated to the stockholders of Sequential and MSLO.

(b) MSLO shall use its reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act, duly give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “MSLO Stockholders Meeting”), and shall within five Business Days of the effectiveness of the Form S-4 publicly announce the date of the MSLO Stockholders Meeting, in accordance with the DGCL and MSLO’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws for the purpose of obtaining the MSLO Stockholder Approval and shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, through its Board of Directors, recommend to its stockholders the adoption and approval of this Agreement. MSLO may only postpone or adjourn the MSLO Stockholders Meeting (i) to solicit additional proxies for the purpose of obtaining the MSLO Stockholder Approval, (ii) for the absence of a quorum, (iii) with the consent of Sequential or (iv) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and/or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that MSLO has determined after consultation with outside legal counsel is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by stockholders of MSLO prior to the MSLO Stockholders Meeting. MSLO shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to MSLO’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act and to hold the MSLO Stockholders Meeting as soon as practicable after the Form S-4 becomes effective and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, solicit the MSLO Stockholder Approval. MSLO shall, through the MSLO Board, recommend to its stockholders that they vote in favor of the MSLO Merger and shall include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, except to the extent that the MSLO Board shall have made an Adverse Recommendation Change as permitted by Section 5.5.

the period prior to the Closing Date to all of the properties, books, Contracts, commitments, personnel and records and, during such period, each of Sequential and MSLO shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other and its representatives such information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request, other than to the extent such information is contemplated to be provided pursuant to Section 5.5, in which case, the provisions of Section 5.5 shall apply to the sharing of such information. The foregoing notwithstanding, neither Sequential nor MSLO shall be required to afford such access if and to the extent it would (w) unreasonably disrupt its operations or any of its Subsidiaries, (x) violate any of its or its Subsidiaries’ obligations with respect to confidentiality, (y) cause a risk of a loss of privilege or trade secret protection to it or any of its Subsidiaries or (z) constitute a violation of any applicable Law; provided, however, that, in each case, Sequential or MSLO, as the case may be, uses commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the effects of such restriction or to provide a reasonable alternative to such access. All information furnished pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of April 27, 2015, between MSLO and Sequential (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). No investigation pursuant to this Section 6.2 or information provided to, made available to or delivered by either Sequential or MSLO pursuant to this Section 6.2 or otherwise shall affect any representations or warranties, conditions or rights of either Sequential or MSLO contained in this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties agrees to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following: (i) obtain all required consents, approvals or waivers from, or participation in other discussions or negotiations with, third parties, including as required under any Contract, (ii) defend any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) obtain all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, approvals, orders and authorizations from Governmental Entities and (iv) make all necessary registrations, declarations and filings with any Governmental Entity, including filings required under the HSR Act with the United States Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice; provided that no party shall be required to pay (and MSLO and its Subsidiaries shall not pay or agree to pay without the prior written consent of Sequential, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) any fee, penalty or other consideration to any third party for any consent or approval required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Contract. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Sequential and MSLO each shall, no later than ten Business Days following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, file a Notification and Report Form

pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions consistent with this Section 6.3 necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act as soon as practicable.

6.4 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, TopCo shall indemnify and hold harmless each individual who is as of the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of MSLO or Sequential or any of their respective Subsidiaries or who is as of the date of this Agreement, or who thereafter commences prior to the Effective Time, serving at the request of MSLO or Sequential, as applicable, or any of their respective Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another Person (including such individual’s affiliates, the “Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, inquiries, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including this Agreement and the transactions and actions contemplated hereby)), arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party (or such Indemnified Party’s affiliate) is or was an officer or director of MSLO or Sequential, as applicable, or any of their respective Subsidiaries is or was serving at the request of MSLO or Sequential, as applicable, or any of their respective subsidiaries as a director or officer of another person or in respect of any acts or omissions in their capacities as such directors or officers occurring prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, and any indemnification agreements in existence as of the date of this Agreement. In the event of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, (i) each Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding from TopCo to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law; provided, that any person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, if and only to the extent required by the DGCL, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification, and (ii) TopCo shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate in the defense of any such matter.

transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, TopCo, the Sequential Surviving Corporation and/or the MSLO Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of TopCo, the Sequential Surviving Corporation and/or the MSLO Surviving Corporation, as applicable, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4(a).

(b) For a period of six years from and after the Effective Time, TopCo shall either cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by MSLO or Sequential or any of their Subsidiaries or provide substitute polices of not less than the existing coverage and have other terms not less favorable to the insured persons with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time, except that in no event shall TopCo be required to pay with respect to such insurance policies (or substitute insurance policies) (i) of MSLO in respect of any one policy year more than 300% of the annual premium payable by MSLO for such insurance for the year ending December 31, 2014 (the “MSLO Maximum Amount”), and if TopCo is unable to obtain the insurance required by this Section 6.4(b) it shall obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for the years within such six-year period for an annual premium equal to the MSLO Maximum Amount, in respect of each policy year within such period; provided, that in lieu of the foregoing, MSLO may obtain at or prior to the Effective Time a six-year “tail” policy under MSLO’s existing directors and officers insurance policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in the preceding sentence if and to the extent that the same may be obtained for an amount that, on an annual basis, does not exceed the MSLO Maximum Amount, or (ii) of Sequential in respect of any one policy year more than 300% of the annual premium payable by Sequential for such insurance for the year ending December 31, 2014 (the “Sequential Maximum Amount”), and if TopCo is unable to obtain the insurance required by this Section 6.4(b), it shall obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for the years within such six-year period for an annual premium equal to the Sequential Maximum Amount, in respect of each policy year within such period; provided, that in lieu of the foregoing, Sequential may obtain at or prior to the Effective Time a six-year “tail” policy under Sequential’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in the preceding sentence if and to the extent that the same may be obtained for an amount that, on an annual basis, does not exceed the Sequential Maximum Amount.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.4 (i) shall survive consummation of the Mergers, (ii) are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified or insured party (including the Indemnified Parties), his or her heirs and his or her representatives, and (iii) are 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.

(a) For a period beginning on the Closing Date and continuing thereafter for 12 months, subject to any contractual obligations that may apply, TopCo shall provide, or shall cause MSLO Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to provide, employees of MSLO as of the Closing who continue employment with TopCo or any of its Subsidiaries, including MSLO Surviving Corporation, following the Closing (the “Continuing Employees”) with (i) wage or base salary levels (but not any short-term incentive compensation opportunities or other bonus plans (other than the commission sales plan set forth in Section 6.11(a) of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule)) that are not less than those in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) employee benefits (excluding equity-based compensation) that are comparable in the aggregate to either those in effect for such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time or those provided to similarly-situated employees of Sequential from time-to-time, provided that, (x) until December 31, 2015, Topco and the MSLO Surviving Corporation agree to keep in effect all employee benefits (excluding equity-based compensation) that are applicable to employees of MSLO as of the date hereof and (y) notwithstanding the immediately preceding clause (x), until the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, TopCo and the MSLO Surviving Corporation agree to keep in effect all severance plans, practices and policies that are applicable to employees of MSLO as of the date hereof and set forth on Section 6.11(a) of the MSLO Disclosure Schedule. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the right of TopCo or any of their respective Affiliates to (A) terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time, (B) change or modify the terms or conditions of employment for any Continuing Employee, or (C) change or modify any Sequential Benefit Plan, MSLO Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement in accordance with its terms.

(b) For all purposes under the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements established or maintained by TopCo and its respective Affiliates in which Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing (the “New Benefit Plans”), each Continuing Employee shall be credited with the same amount of service as was credited by MSLO as of the Closing under similar or comparable MSLO Benefit Plans in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing (except (i) for purposes of benefit accrual under defined benefit plans and retiree medical arrangements or (ii) to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits). In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) with respect to any New Benefit Plans in which the Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing, each Continuing Employee will immediately be eligible to participate in such New Benefit Plans, without any waiting time, to

the extent coverage under such New Benefit Plans replaces coverage under a similar or comparable MSLO Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee was eligible to participate immediately before such commencement of participation and (ii) for purposes of each New Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, TopCo shall cause all preexisting condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Benefit Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, to the extent any such exclusions or requirements were waived or were inapplicable under any similar or comparable MSLO Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing. TopCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the MSLO Benefit Plan ending on the date such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Benefit Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Benefit Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Benefit Plan.

(c) The terms of this Section 6.11 are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties hereto and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Continuing Employee or former employee of MSLO, any participant or beneficiary in any MSLO Benefit Plan or any other Person or Governmental Entity (whether as a third party beneficiary or otherwise) other than the parties hereto. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) constitute or be deemed to constitute an amendment to any MSLO Benefit Plan or other compensation or benefit plan, policy, program or arrangement of MSLO, Sequential or any other Person, (ii) obligate TopCo or any of its Subsidiaries to (A) maintain any particular benefit plan or arrangement or (B) retain the employment of any particular employee; or (iii) prevent the MSLO Surviving Corporation, TopCo or any of their Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any benefit plan or arrangement.

(a) by mutual written consent of MSLO and Sequential;

(b) by either MSLO or Sequential, if any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable Order permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that no party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if such party’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement proximately contributed to the occurrence of such Order;

(c) by either MSLO or Sequential , if the Mergers shall not have been consummated on or before December 22, 2015, subject to extension by the mutual agreement of MSLO and Sequential (the “End Date”); provided, however, that no party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if such party’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement was the primary cause of the failure of the Closing to occur by the End Date;

(e) by MSLO if the Sequential Written Consent shall not have been delivered to Sequential in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL and to MSLO within 24 hours after execution of this Agreement;

(f) by MSLO, if there shall have been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any inaccuracy of any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of Sequential, which breach or inaccuracy, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or (b), unless such failure is reasonably capable of being cured, and Sequential is continuing to use its reasonable best efforts to cure such failure, by the End Date;

(g) by Sequential, if there shall have been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any inaccuracy of any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of MSLO, which breach or inaccuracy, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or (b), unless such failure is reasonably capable of being cured, and MSLO is continuing to use its reasonable best efforts to cure such failure, by the End Date;

(h) by Sequential if (A) an Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred, (B) prior to the MSLO Stockholders Meeting, following the receipt by MSLO of an Acquisition Proposal or amendment thereto, the MSLO Board shall have failed to publicly reaffirm its recommendation of the MSLO Merger within 10 Business Days after the date Sequential requests in writing that the MSLO Board so reaffirm the recommendation, or (C) MSLO shall have intentionally and materially breached its obligations set forth in Section 5.5 or 6.1; or

(i) by MSLO at any time prior to obtaining the MSLO Stockholder Approval, in order to accept a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 5.5(d); provided, that MSLO shall have (A) simultaneously with such termination entered into the associated Alternative Acquisition Agreement and (B) paid any amounts due pursuant to Section 8.2(c).

8.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by either MSLO or Sequential in accordance with Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, and none of MSLO, Sequential, any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of the officers or directors of any of the foregoing shall have any liability of any nature whatsoever under this Agreement, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that Section 3.21, Section 4.22, this Section 8.2 and ARTICLE IX shall survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, that, except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.2, no party will be relieved or released from any liability or damages arising from an intentional and material breach of any provision of this Agreement prior to such termination, and in each case the aggrieved party will be entitled to all rights and remedies available at Law or in equity (which the parties acknowledge and agree will not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs). Without limiting the foregoing, MSLO acknowledges and agrees that the payment of the Expense Reimbursement or Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b) or Section 8.2(c), respectively, will not preclude Sequential, in the case of an intentional and material breach of this Agreement by MSLO or fraud, from seeking additional damages from MSLO on account of such intentional and material breach or fraud (it being understood that the MSLO Board’s failure to reaffirm its recommendation under the circumstances set forth in Section 8.1(h)(B) will not be deemed an intentional and material breach of this Agreement if the MSLO Board has determined the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law). For purposes of this Agreement, “intentional and material breach” means a material breach that is a consequence of an act (or failure to act) undertaken by the breaching party with the knowledge (actual or constructive) that the taking of (or the failure to take) such act would, or would be reasonably expected to, cause a breach of this Agreement. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the parties contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms.

(b) In the event that Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or (g), MSLO shall promptly, and in any event within two Business Days after termination of this Agreement, reimburse Sequential for any and all expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Financing Commitments and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”).

(i) (A) after the date of this Agreement but prior to the date of the MSLO Stockholders Meeting, any Person or group of Persons shall have publicly made an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not conditional), (B) this Agreement is terminated by MSLO or Sequential pursuant to Section 8.1(c) or (d) or by Sequential pursuant to Section 8.1(g) and (C) within 12 months after the date of such termination, MSLO enters into an agreement in respect of any Acquisition Proposal, or recommends or submits an Acquisition Proposal to its stockholders for adoption, and such Acquisition Proposal is later consummated, which, in each case, need not be the same Acquisition Proposal that was made, disclosed or communicated prior to termination hereof, provided that for purposes of this Section 8.2(c)(i) the references to “20%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”;

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Sequential pursuant to Section 8.1(h); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by MSLO pursuant to Section 8.1(i);

then, in any such event, MSLO shall pay to Sequential the applicable Termination Fee (less the amount of any Expense Reimbursement previously paid pursuant to Section 8.2(b)), it being understood that in no event shall MSLO be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Payment of the Termination Fee shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts designated by Sequential (A) no later than three Business Days after the date on which MSLO consummates such Acquisition Proposal in the case of a Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(i), (B) as promptly as reasonably practicable after termination (and, in any event, within three Business Days thereof) in the case of a Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(ii), and (C) simultaneously with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, termination, in the case of a Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(iii).

(d) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement and (ii) the Termination Fee, in the circumstances in which such fee becomes payable, constitutes liquidated damages and is not a penalty.

8.3 Amendment. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by MSLO and Sequential, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards

of directors, at any time before or after the Sequential Stockholder Approval or the MSLO Stockholder Approval is obtained; provided, however, that after the Sequential Stockholder Approval and/or MSLO Stockholder Approval has been obtained, there may not be, without further approval of the stockholders of Sequential or stockholders of MSLO, as applicable, any amendment of this Agreement which by applicable Law otherwise requires the further approval of such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither this Section 8.3 nor Section 9.8, Section 9.10, Section 9.12 or Section 9.13 (and any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provision would modify the substance of such Sections) may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived in a manner that is adverse to the interests of the lenders party to the Financing Commitment in any respect without the written consent of such lenders.

8.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, MSLO and Sequential may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed by an authorized officer on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition will not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Each party further agrees that no other party hereto or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.11, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.
