ARTICLE III.

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 3.1                                    Effect on Securities.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Merger Sub or the holders of any securities of the Company or Merger Sub:

(a)                                 Cancellation of Treasury Stock.  Each share of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration or payment shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(b)                                 Conversion of Certain Company Securities.  Each share of Company Common Stock held by any Subsidiary of the Company, or by Parent or Merger Sub or any of their wholly owned Subsidiaries, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into and become one (1) fully paid share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(c)                                  Conversion of All Other Company Securities.  Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a), converted pursuant to Section 3.1(b) or Dissenting Shares as provided in Section 3.5) shall be converted into the right to receive $36.50 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Total Common Merger Consideration” shall mean the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a), converted pursuant to Section 3.1(b) or Dissenting Shares as provided in Section 3.5) immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Merger Consideration.  Each share of Company Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in the first sentence of this Section 3.1(c) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holders of certificates (the “Certificates”) or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Common Stock other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 3.4) or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 3.2(c), the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, for each such share of Company Common Stock held by them.  Pursuant to Section 3.2(c)(ii), holders of Book-Entry Shares shall have the right to receive, in accordance with Section 3.2, the Merger Consideration without any requirement to deliver the Certificates or a letter of transmittal.

(d)                                 Conversion of Merger Sub Capital Stock.  Each share of common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time

17

shall be converted into and become one (1) fully paid share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(e)                                  Equitable Adjustment.  If, at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, or securities convertible into or exchangeable into or exercisable such capital stock of the Company, shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, merger or other similar transaction, the Merger Consideration and any other similarly dependent item shall be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to reflect such change to provide the holders of shares of capital stock of the Company the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however that nothing in this Section 3.1(e)  shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement or to prevent Parent or Merger Sub from exercising any remedies that may be available to them as a result of any such change.

Section 3.2                                    Exchange of Certificates.

(a)                                 Designation of Paying Agent; Deposit of Exchange Fund.  Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company, the identity and the terms of appointment of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), it being agreed by the parties that American Stock Transfer & Trust is acceptable, for the payment of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(c).  At or prior to the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than holders of shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a), the Dissenting Shares as provided in Section 3.5 or converted pursuant to Section 3.1(b)) cash constituting an amount equal to the Total Common Merger Consideration (such Total Common Merger Consideration as deposited with the Paying Agent, the “Exchange Fund”).  In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments contemplated by Section 3.1(c), Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional funds with the Paying Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment.  Nothing contained in this Section 3.2 and no investment losses resulting from investment of the funds deposited with the Paying Agent shall diminish the rights of any holder of shares of Company Common Stock to receive the Merger Consideration.  Parent shall cause the Exchange Fund to be (i) held for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(c) and (ii) applied promptly to making the payments pursuant to Section 3.1(c).  Except as provided in Section 3.2(d) or Section 3.2(f), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments pursuant to Section 3.1.

(b)                                 As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time and in any event not later than the second (2nd ) Business Day thereafter, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail (and to make available for collection by hand) to each holder of record of a Certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration

18

pursuant to Section 3.1(c)  (i) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent and which shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration, the form and substance of which letter of transmittal and instruction shall be substantially as reasonably agreed by the Company and Parent and prepared prior to the Merger Closing.

(c)                                  Surrender Procedures.

(i)                                     Certificates.  Upon the later of the Effective Time and surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay in exchange therefor as promptly as practicable, the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Certificates surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.  In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the appropriate amount of Merger Consideration may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer (and accompanied by all documents reasonably required by the Paying Agent) and the Person requesting such payment shall pay, or cause to be paid, any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.  Except with respect to Dissenting Shares, until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.2(c), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1(c).  No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.

(ii)                                  Book-Entry Shares.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III.  In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall automatically upon the Effective Time (or at any later time at which such Book-Entry Shares shall be so converted) be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, in respect of each such Book-Entry Share, the Merger Consideration.  No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Book-Entry Shares.

19

(iii)                               Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to ensure that (A) if the Merger Closing occurs at or prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the Merger Closing Date, the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees on the Merger Closing Date an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock held of record by DTC or such nominee immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Merger Consideration (such amount, the “DTC Payment”), and (B) if the Merger Closing occurs after 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the Merger Closing Date, the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominee on the first (1st) Business Day after the Merger Closing Date an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the DTC Payment.

(d)                                 Termination of Exchange Fund.  Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains unclaimed by the applicable former shareholders of the Company one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any such holders prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Corporation for payment of their claims for Merger Consideration in respect thereof.

(e)                                  No Liability.  None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Exchange Fund properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.  If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect thereof would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, and any holder of such Certificate who has not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect thereto shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration in respect thereof (if any).

(f)                                   Investment of Exchange Fund.  The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation; provided that (i) no such investment shall relieve Parent or the Paying Agent from making the payments required by this Article III, and following any losses Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock in the amount of such losses, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days or guaranteed by the United States of America and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America.  After payment of the Merger Consideration, any interest or income produced by such investments will be payable to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as directed by Parent.

Section 3.3                                    Equity Awards.

(a)                                 Treatment of Options; Restricted Stock Units; Performance Share Awards.

(i)                                     Company Options.  As of the Effective Time, each Company Option granted prior to the date hereof and that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether vested or unvested) shall automatically terminate and be canceled without any action on the part of any holder of such Company Option in consideration for the right at the Effective Time to receive in full satisfaction of the rights of such holder with respect thereto, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, the Option Cash Payment.  As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take the actions necessary to effectuate this Section 3.3(a)(i).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Option Cash Payment” means, with respect to any Company Option, a cash payment equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the cancellation of such Company Option and (B) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price payable per share of Company Common Stock issuable under such Company Option, without interest and less any required withholding Taxes.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the exercise price per share of any Company Option, whether vested or unvested as of the Effective Time, is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, then by virtue of the occurrence of the Effective Time and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company or the holder thereof, the Company Option will automatically terminate and be canceled without payment of any consideration to the holder.

(ii)                                  Company Performance Shares.  As of the Effective Time, each equity-based award that is subject to performance-based conditions (each a “Company Performance Share Award”) pursuant to any Company Plan that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall automatically terminate and be canceled without any action on the part of any holder of any such Company Performance Share Award in consideration for the right at the Effective Time to receive in full satisfaction of the rights of such holder with respect thereto, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, the Performance Share Award Payment.  The “Performance Share Award Payment” means, with respect to any Company Performance Share Award, a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Performance Share Award (assuming achievement of the applicable performance-based conditions at the maximum level) and (B) the Merger Consideration, without interest and less any required withholding Taxes.

(iii)                               Company Restricted Stock Units.  As of the Effective Time, each Company Restricted Stock Unit granted on or prior to the date hereof that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall automatically terminate and be canceled and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive in consideration for such cancellation and in full satisfaction of the rights of such holder with respect thereto, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time

21

(except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3(a)(iv)), a cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration, without interest and less any required withholding Taxes (the “Restricted Award Payment”).

(iv)                              Manner of Making Payment.  At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Surviving Corporation sufficient cash funds to make all Option Cash Payments, all Restricted Award Payments and all Performance Share Award Payments, in each case, subject to and as required pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to make such payments to all holders of Company Options, Company Restricted Stock Units and Company Performance Share Awards, as applicable, as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, and in any event, within five (5) Business Days thereafter or, if later, on the earlier of any special payroll date elected by the Surviving Corporation and the first payroll date of the Surviving Corporation that occurs after the Merger Closing Date; provided that to the extent payment within such time or on such date would trigger a tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payments shall be made on the earliest date that payment would not trigger such tax or penalty.

(v)                                 New Options.  As of the Effective Time, each outstanding award of New Options shall be assumed by Parent (the “Assumed Options”) and shall be converted into a new award covering a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (rounded down to the next whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock) (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock covered by the New Option award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Equity Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such New Option by (y) the Equity Exchange Ratio.   Each Assumed Option shall otherwise continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including the vesting arrangements and other terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Company Plan and the applicable stock option agreement or other agreement) as are in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that Parent shall have any and all amendment and administrative authority with respect to such Assumed Option (subject, in the case of any amendment, to any required consent of the affected holder of such Assumed Option).

(b)                                 Certain Actions.  Prior to the Merger Closing Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) effectuate the provisions of Section 3.3(a), (ii) terminate all of the Company Plans other than the Company Plan(s) pursuant to which a New Option has been granted, as of the Effective Time, and (iii) ensure that any options, other equity-based awards or other rights granted or issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof (or promised to be granted pursuant to Contracts or offer letters entered into prior to the date hereof by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is party or bound) that may entitle any Person to own any capital stock of or other equity interests in Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries prior of the date hereof or to receive any payment or other consideration in respect of the foregoing shall be canceled immediately prior to the Effective Time without any payment therefor (except for the cash payments expressly contemplated by this Section 3.3); it being understood that the intention of the parties is that, immediately

22

following the Effective Time, except with respect to holders of New Options, no holder of any Company Option, Company Restricted Stock Unit or Company Performance Share Award or any participant in any Company Plan or other employee benefit arrangement of the Company shall have any right thereunder to acquire any capital stock (including any “phantom” stock, stock appreciation rights or other equity interest) of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to such Company Plan, other arrangement or otherwise.

Section 3.4                                    Lost Certificates.  If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if such Person owns at least 0.1% of the authorized capital stock of the Company and if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such customary and reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article III.

Section 3.5                                    Dissenting Shares.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder, who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand, and who properly demands, appraisal of such shares (“Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Sections 10.351 through 10.368 of the TBOC, as applicable, shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead such holder of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the TBOC (and, at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the TBOC), unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares under the TBOC. If any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into and become exchangeable solely for the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in accordance with Section 3.1(b). Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall comply, and after the Effective Time, Parent shall comply, with the information delivery and other requirements under Sections 10.355 and 10.358 of the TBOC. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the TBOC and received by the Company relating to demands for appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the TBOC. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Common Stock, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demands. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 3.2(a) to pay

23

for shares of Company Common Stock for which appraisal rights have been perfected shall be returned to Parent upon demand; provided that Parent shall remain liable to pay the Merger Consideration with respect to such shares upon withdrawal of the demand for, or loss of the right to, appraisal for such shares. Each shareholder who, pursuant to Sections 10.351 through 10.368 of the TBOC, as applicable, becomes entitled to payment of the fair value of any Dissenting Shares will receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation (but only after the value therefor has been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such applicable section).

Section 3.6                                    Withholdings.  Parent, the Company, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment of Merger Consideration, any Option Cash Payment, any Performance Share Award Payment and any Restricted Award Payment, as applicable, and any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Stock, Company Options, Company Performance Share Awards or Company Restricted Stock Units such amounts as Parent, the Company, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of applicable Tax Law.  To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by Parent, the Company, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 3.7                                    Transfers; No Further Ownership Rights.  At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company or the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.  If Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or Parent for transfer following the Effective Time, they shall be canceled against delivery of the applicable Merger Consideration, as provided for in Section 3.1(c), for each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates.

Section 5.2                                    Authority Relative to Agreement.  Each of Parent and Merger Sub has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger and the Financing.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub and the consummation by Parent and Merger Sub of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger and the Financing, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of Parent and Merger Sub (and, with respect to Merger Sub, by its sole shareholder), and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Parent or Merger Sub are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger and the Financing (other than, with respect to the consummation of the Merger, the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State).  This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Parent and Merger Sub and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent and Merger Sub, enforceable against Parent and Merger Sub in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditor’s rights, and to general equitable principles).

44

Section 5.3                                    No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.  (a) None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub, the consummation by Parent or Merger Sub of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger and the Financing, or performance of their obligations hereunder will (i) conflict with or violate the Parent Organizational Documents, (ii) assuming the consents, registrations, filings, notices, approvals and authorizations specified in Section 5.3(b), including all Gaming Approvals, have been obtained or made and the waiting periods referred to therein have expired, and any condition precedent to such consent, approval, authorization, or waiver has been satisfied, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to Parent or Merger Sub or by which any property or asset of Parent or Merger Sub is bound or affected or (iii) result in any breach of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any right of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien (other than, in the case of the Financing, any Lien required or permitted thereunder) on any of the properties or assets of Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture or credit agreement, or any other Contract or other instrument or obligation to which Parent or Merger Sub is a party or by which Parent or Merger Sub or any property or asset of Parent or Merger Sub is bound, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for any such violation, breach, default, right, termination, amendment, acceleration, or cancellation that would not constitute, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(b)                                 None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub, the consummation by Parent and Merger Sub of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger and the Financing, or performance of their obligations hereunder will require any consent, approval, authorization, waiver or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any Governmental Authority, except for (i) the filing with the SEC of such reports under the Exchange Act as may be required in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) compliance with, and the filing of a premerger notification and report form by the Company under, the HSR Act and the filings and receipt, termination or expiration, as applicable, of such other approvals or waiting periods as may be required under applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws, (iii) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State, the other filings required under the TBOC with the Secretary of State and the filing of appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of the other jurisdictions in which the Company is qualified to do business, (iv) such material licenses, approvals, consents, registrations, qualifications, declarations, notices or filings as are required to be made or obtained under applicable Gaming Laws, which material consents, registrations, declarations, notices or filings, assuming the accuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.5, are set forth in Section 5.3(b) of the Parent Disclosure Letter, (v) any filings required under the rules of NYSE, and (vi) such other consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, filings or notifications, the failure of which to have, make or obtain, as applicable, would not constitute, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4                                    Absence of Litigation.  As of the date of this Agreement, there is no Proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened against either Parent or Merger Sub as would constitute, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

45

Section 5.5                                    Absence of Certain Agreements.  Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates has entered into any Contract, or authorized, committed or agreed to enter into any Contract, pursuant to which:  (a) any shareholder of the Company would be entitled to receive consideration of a different amount or nature than the Merger Consideration, (b) any shareholder of the Company (i) agrees to vote to approve this Agreement or the Merger or (ii) agrees to vote against, or not to tender its shares of Company Common Stock in, any Acquisition Proposal or (c) any third party has agreed to provide, directly or indirectly, equity capital to Parent or the Company to finance in whole or in part the Merger.

Section 5.6                                    Information Supplied.  None of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date it is first provided to the Company, in each case, if applicable, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.  No representation or warranty is made by Parent or Merger Sub with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement based on information supplied by the Company or any of its Representatives for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement.

Section 5.7                                    Financing.  (a) Parent has delivered to the Company true, correct and complete copies of the fully executed debt commitment letter and Fee Letter from Bank of America, N.A., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (collectively, the “Lenders”), dated as of the date hereof (including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments thereto as of the date of this Agreement and together with the related Fee Letter, collectively, the “Financing Commitments”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Lenders have committed to lend the amounts set forth therein to Parent and designated Affiliates for the purpose of refinancing Parent’s existing senior secured credit facility (to the extent necessary) and funding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Financing”); provided, however, that solely in the case of the Fee Letter, accurate and complete copies have been delivered to the Company with only the portions thereof addressing fees payable to the Financing Sources, pricing caps, securities demand, economic flex terms and other economic terms redacted.

(b)                                 All of the Financing Commitments, in the forms provided to the Company by Parent (except to the extent amended or replaced after the date hereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and any definitive agreements with respect to the Financing (which definitive agreements, whether entered into before or after the date of this Agreement (but if entered into after the date hereof, only to the extent entered into in compliance with the first sentence of Section 6.11(d)  or Section 6.11(b)(i)), are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Financing Agreements”) are, or in the case of Financing Agreements entered into after the date of this Agreement will be, in full force and effect and are legal, valid and binding obligations of Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, enforceable against Parent and the other parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be (i) limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) subject to general equitable principles (whether considered in

46

a proceeding in equity or at law).  As of the date of this Agreement, no Financing Commitment has been withdrawn, terminated, repudiated, rescinded, amended, supplemented or modified, in any respect, and no such withdrawal, termination, repudiation, rescission, amendment, supplement or modification is contemplated.

(c)                                  As of the date of this Agreement (i) neither Parent nor Merger Sub nor, to the knowledge of Parent, any other counterparty thereto is in breach of any of its covenants or other obligations set forth in, or is in default under, any of the Financing Commitments and (ii) to Parent’s Knowledge, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c), no event has occurred or circumstance exists that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would or would reasonably be expected to (A) constitute or result in a breach or default on the part of Parent or Merger Sub, or to the Knowledge of Parent, any counterparty thereto, under any of the Financing Commitments, (B) constitute or result in a failure to satisfy a condition precedent set forth in any of the Financing Commitments, (C) make any of the assumptions or any of the statements set forth in the Financing Commitments inaccurate in any material respect or (D) otherwise result in any portion of the Financing being unavailable.  As of the date of this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub has received any notice or other communication from any party to any of the Financing Commitments with respect to (i) any breach or default on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or any other party to any of the Financing Commitments or (ii) any intention of such party to terminate any of the Financing Commitments or to not provide all or any portion of the Financing.  Parent and Merger Sub (both before and after giving effect to any “market flex” provisions contained in the Financing Commitments) (x) have no reason to believe that, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c), they will not be able to satisfy on a timely basis each condition relating to the closing or funding of the Financing; and (y) know of no fact, occurrence, circumstance or condition that, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c), would reasonably be expected to (1) cause any of the Financing Commitments to terminate, to be withdrawn, modified, repudiated or rescinded or to be or become ineffective or (2) otherwise cause the full amount (or any portion) of the funds contemplated to be available under the Financing Commitments to not be available to Parent and Merger Sub on a timely basis (and in any event as of the Merger Closing).  Parent and/or Merger Sub have fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees or deposits required by the Financing Commitments to be paid on or before the date of this Agreement.

(d)                                 Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c), the aggregate proceeds from the Financing, together with any available cash on hand of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any, constitute all of the financing required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are sufficient in amount to provide Parent and Merger Sub with the funds necessary for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to satisfy their respective obligations under this Agreement, including for Parent and Merger Sub to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration, the aggregate Option Cash Payments, the aggregate Restricted Award Payments, the aggregate Performance Share Award Payments, and the aggregate amount of any repayment or refinancing of debt contemplated by this Agreement or the Financing Commitments and the payment of all fees, costs and expenses to be paid by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including such fees and

47

expenses relating to the Financing (such amounts, collectively, the “Required Payment Amount”).

(e)                                  There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies to the obligation of any party to any of the Financing Commitments to fund the full amount of the Financing, including any condition or other contingency relating to the availability of any “market flex” provisions, other than as expressly set forth in unredacted portions of the Financing Commitments and the Fee Letter as in effect and provided to the Company on the date hereof (the “Disclosed Conditions”).  Other than the Disclosed Conditions, no Financing Source or other Person has any right to impose, and none of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Subsidiary obligor have any obligation to accept, any condition precedent to any funding of the Financing nor any reduction to the aggregate amount available under the Financing Commitments (nor any term or condition which would have the effect of reducing the aggregate amount available under the Financing Commitments). There are no side letters and (except for the Financing Commitments and the Fee Letter) there are no agreements, contracts, arrangements or understandings, whether written or oral, with any Lender or Financing Source relating to the Financing or the Financing Commitments that affect the conditionality or availability of the full amount of the Financing, except for any customary fee and engagement letters in respect of the Financing.

(f)                                   Except with respect to the Persons set forth in Section 5.7(f) of the Parent Disclosure Letter, none of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives has entered into any contract, agreement or understanding (i) that conditioned the awarding to any agent, broker, investment banker or financial advisor of any financial advisory role in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby on such person agreeing to advise any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives on an exclusive basis in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or any Acquisition Proposal or (ii) prohibiting or seeking to prohibit any bank or investment bank or other potential provider of financing from providing or seeking to provide debt financing or financial advisory services to any Person in connection with a transaction relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries or in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or any Acquisition Proposal.

(g)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company agrees that a breach of the representation and warranties set forth in this Section 5.7 shall not result in the failure of a condition precedent to the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, if (notwithstanding such breach) Parent and Merger Sub are willing and able to (and actually do) consummate the Merger on the Merger Closing Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 5.8                                    Capitalization of Merger Sub.  As of the date of this Agreement, the authorized share capital of Merger Sub consists of 1,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share, all of which are validly issued and outstanding.  All of the issued and outstanding share capital of Merger Sub is, and at the Effective Time will be, owned by Parent.  Merger Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the transactions contemplated hereby, and it has not conducted any business prior to the date hereof and has no, and prior to the Effective Time will have no, assets, liabilities or obligations of any nature other than those incident to its

48

formation and pursuant to this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Financing).

Section 5.9                                    Gaming Approvals and Licensing Matters.  None of Parent, Merger Sub or, to the Knowledge of Parent, any of their respective officers, directors or Affiliates, any existing beneficial owner of five percent (5%) or more of the voting stock of Parent, or any lender under the Financing Commitments, in each case who or which will be required to be licensed or found suitable under applicable Gaming Laws in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, has ever been denied a gaming license, approval, or related finding of suitability by any Gaming Authority, or had any gaming license or approval revoked or suspended.  As of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of Parent, there are no facts or circumstances with respect to Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates insofar as such Affiliate-owned interest would be attributable to Parent or Merger Sub under any applicable Gaming Law, that would prevent or materially delay receipt of any Gaming Approvals.

Section 5.10                             Solvency.  Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c), each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation will, after giving effect to all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Financing, any Alternative Financing and the payment of the Required Payment Amount, be Solvent at and immediately after the Effective Time.  For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Solvent” means that, as of any date of determination and with respect to any Person: (a) the sum of the debt (including contingent liabilities) of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, does not exceed the present fair saleable value of the present assets of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (b) the capital of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not unreasonably small in relation to the business of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (c) such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, do not have debts including current obligations beyond their ability to pay or refinance such debts as they mature in the ordinary course of business.

Section 5.11                             Ownership of Company Securities.  Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries holds any capital stock, voting securities or equity interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or holds any securities or rights convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or evidencing the right to subscribe for any such shares of capital stock, voting securities or equity interests, or any rights, warrants, options, calls, commitments or any other agreements of any character to purchase or acquire any such shares of capital stock, voting securities or equity interests or any securities or rights convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or evidencing the right to subscribe for, any such shares of capital stock, voting securities or equity interests.  Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is, or at any time during the last three (3) years has been, an “affiliated shareholder” of the Company as defined in Section 21.602 of the TBOC.

Section 5.12                             Management Agreements.  As of the date hereof, neither Parent nor Merger Sub nor any Representative of Parent or Merger Sub has (a) entered into any employment agreement with any of the Company’s directors, officers or employees, (b) offered employment to any of the Company’s directors, officers or employees, (c) had negotiations with any of the Company’s directors, officers or employees regarding employment after the Merger

49

Closing or (d) sold, or offered to sell, any direct or indirect equity interest in the Company to any of the Company’s directors, officers or employees.

Section 5.13                             Brokers.  Other than Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, whose fees shall be borne solely by Parent, no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the Merger and any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub.

Section 5.14                             No Other Representations or Warranties.  Except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Article V, none of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates nor any other Person on behalf of any of them makes any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Parent, Merger Sub or their respective businesses or with respect to any other information provided, or made available, to the Company or any of its Representatives or Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including the accuracy or completeness thereof. Except with respect to the representations and warranties of the Company expressly set forth in Article IV or otherwise in this Agreement, there is and has been no reliance by Parent, Merger Sub, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives on any express or implied representation or warranty of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6.2                                    Proxy Statement; Shareholders’ Meeting.

(a)                                 Preparation and Filing of Proxy Statement.  Within thirty (30) days following the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC in preliminary form a proxy statement relating to the Shareholders’ Meeting (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”).  Except as expressly contemplated by Section 6.5, the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Board Recommendation with respect to the Merger.  The Company shall promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) or any request from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement, and shall provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC (or the staff of the SEC), on the other hand.  Each of the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments of the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) with respect to the Proxy Statement.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts so that the Proxy Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  Prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and to propose comments on such document or response (which comments shall be provided promptly and be reasonably considered).

(b)                                 Covenants of Parent with Respect to the Proxy Statement.  Parent shall furnish to the Company all information concerning Parent and Merger Sub as may be reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the Proxy Statement, including such information that is required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be set forth in the Proxy Statement, and shall otherwise assist and cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement and the resolution of comments from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC).  Parent will, upon request of the Company, confirm and/or supplement the information relating to Parent or Merger Sub supplied by it for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, such that at the time of the mailing of the Proxy Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, and at the time of the Shareholders’ Meeting, such information shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c)                                  Mailing of Proxy Statement; Shareholders’ Meeting.  The Company shall, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the Proxy Statement Clearance Date), (x) establish a record date for and give notice of a meeting of its shareholders, for the purpose of voting upon the approval of this Agreement (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Shareholders’ Meeting”) and (y) mail to the holders of Company Common Stock as of the record date established for the Shareholders’ Meeting a Proxy Statement (such date, the “Proxy Date”).  The Company shall duly call, convene and hold the Shareholders’ Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Proxy Date; provided, however, that the Company, in its reasonable judgment and following consultation with Parent, shall determine the length of any period for the solicitation of proxies from its shareholders and, furthermore, that the Company may postpone, recess or adjourn the Shareholders’ Meeting: (i) with the consent of Parent, (ii) for the absence of a quorum, (iii) to solicit additional proxies

55

for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Shareholder Approval or (iv) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and distribution of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) is necessary or advisable under applicable Laws and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated to and reviewed by the Company’s shareholders prior to the Shareholders’ Meeting.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.2(c), in no event shall the Shareholders’ Meeting take place after January 15, 2015 without Parent’s express written consent.  Once the Company has established a record date for the Shareholders’ Meeting, the Company shall not change such record date or establish a different record date for the Shareholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent, unless required to do so by applicable Law or the Bylaws.  Unless the Company Board shall have effected a Change in Recommendation, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement and shall ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Shareholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Laws and all rules of NASDAQ.

(d)                                 Amendments to Proxy Statement.  If at any time prior to the Effective Time any event or circumstance relating to the Company or Parent or any of the Company’s or Parent’s Subsidiaries, or their respective officers or directors, is discovered by the Company or Parent, respectively, which, pursuant to the Exchange Act, should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement, such party shall promptly inform the others.  Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees to correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement which shall have become false or misleading.

Section 6.3                                    Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.  (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall (and shall cause each of their applicable Affiliates and Subsidiaries to) use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and use its reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate, as promptly as practicable, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees to use its respective reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VII to be satisfied as promptly as practicable, (ii) defend against any Proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) obtain all necessary consents, approvals, orders, waivers, finding of suitability and authorizations of, actions or nonactions by, any Governmental Authority (including Gaming Authorities) or any third party necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and make all necessary registrations, declarations and filings with, and notices to, any Governmental Authorities (including pursuant to the HSR Act any other applicable Antitrust Law necessary to start any applicable waiting period and including under Gaming Laws) and take all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval from, or to avoid a suit, action, proceeding or investigation by, any Governmental Authority or other Persons necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger; provided, that, in no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be required to pay, prior to the Effective Time, any fee, penalty or other consideration to obtain any consent, approval, order, waiver or authorization in connection with the transactions contemplated by this

56

Agreement, including the Merger, under any Contract other than de minimis amounts or amounts that are advanced or reimbursed substantially simultaneous by Parent and (iv) execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Merger and any other transactions to be performed or consummated by such party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to carry out fully the purposes of this Agreement.  In no event shall the Company (A) be required to agree to take or enter into any action which is not conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger or (B) agree to any obligation or concession or other action relating to the Antitrust Approval or the Required Gaming Approvals without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that any failure by the Company to agree to any such obligation or concession by reason of Parent’s withholding its written consent from the Company to do so shall not constitute a breach by the Company of this Section 6.3.

(b)                                 Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub agrees (i) promptly after the date hereof, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the date hereof, to file all Notification and Report Forms required under the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to file all other notifications required under any other Antitrust Law or any Gaming Law with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, (including all required initial applications and documents in respect of officers and directors and Affiliates in connection with obtaining the Gaming Approvals (and where appropriate indications of further information to come by supplementary filing)) as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) days following the date hereof with respect to the Required Gaming Approvals), (iii) to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material in its possession that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act, any other Antitrust Law or any Gaming Law, and (iv) to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary, proper or advisable consistent with, and subject to, the other provisions of this Section 6.3, to (A) cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law as promptly as reasonably practicable, including, if possible under applicable Law, by requesting early termination thereof, and (B) obtain all Gaming Approvals required to permit the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or necessary to permit Parent to acquire, own and operate the Company.  Each of Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts referred to in Section 6.3(a)  to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, any other Antitrust Law or any Gaming Law, use reasonable best efforts to (1) cooperate in good faith in devising and implementing the strategy for obtaining any necessary clearances under any Antitrust Laws or necessary approvals under any Gaming Laws, (2) avoid any action or proceeding by any Governmental Authority challenging the consummation of transactions contemplated hereby, (3) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, (4) keep the other party reasonably informed of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, any Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby (other than to the extent relating to private or personal information pertaining to any individual which may remain confidential) and (5) reasonably permit the other party to review any material communication given by it to, and consult with each other in

57

advance of any meeting or conference, where reasonably practicable to do so, with, any Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by such applicable Governmental Authority or other Person, give the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences (telephonic or in person), where reasonably practicable to do so and shall take the lead in all meetings and communications with, or Proceeding involving, any Governmental Authority in connection with obtaining the Antitrust Approval and the Required Gaming Approvals; provided, however, that the consent of each party shall be required prior to the taking of any action (including the failure to take any such action) in connection with obtaining the Antitrust Approval or any Required Gaming Approvals if such action (or failure to act) would be reasonably likely to materially delay, or materially impair the likelihood of obtaining, any such approvals.

(c)                                  In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in Section 6.3(a) and Section 6.3(b), subject to the last sentence of Section 6.3(a), if any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Antitrust Law or Gaming Law or if any Proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, is instituted (or threatened in writing to be instituted) by any Governmental Authority or any other private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any Antitrust Law or Gaming Law or which would otherwise prevent or materially impede, interfere with, hinder or delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.3 (including the last two sentences of Section 6.3(a)), using reasonable best efforts to resolve any such objections or suits so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (taking into account the other conditions to the Merger Closing set forth in Article VII of this Agreement, and in any event no later than the Termination Date), which may include to the extent mutually agreed by Parent and the Company proposing, negotiating, committing to or effecting, by agreement consent decree, hold separate order, trust or otherwise (i) the creation or termination of relationships, ventures, contractual rights or obligations of Parent or any of its Affiliates or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) the restructuring or committing to restructure the Surviving Corporation’s capital structure or replacing, or issuing non-voting equity securities to, one or more of the Licensed Parent Persons who is preventing or materially delaying the receipt of any Gaming Approvals or (iii) any other actions that would limit the freedom of action of Parent or any of its Affiliates or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of its or the Company’s or the Surviving Corporation’s Subsidiaries’ assets, businesses, services, products or product lines, in each case as reasonably may be required in order to obtain all Antitrust Approvals or Required Gaming Approvals as promptly as practicable (including expirations or terminations of waiting periods whether imposed by Law or agreement, as applicable).

(d)                                 Subject to applicable Law, each of the parties hereto will furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with the preparation of any required filings or submissions with any Governmental Authority and will reasonably cooperate in responding to any inquiry from a Governmental Authority, including promptly informing the other party of such inquiry, consulting in advance before making any presentations or submissions to a Governmental Authority, and supplying each other with copies

58

of all material correspondence, filings or communications between either party and any Governmental Authority with respect to this Agreement (other than confidential business information or private or personal information pertaining to any individual applicants which may remain confidential).  Neither party shall have any material communication or meeting (telephonic or in-person) regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with a Governmental Authority without giving the other party a reasonable opportunity to attend in person or by phone (unless the Governmental Authority prohibits such other party’s participation or attendance in the communication or meeting).  Parent and Merger Sub agree (i) following receipt of any communications from any Governmental Authority or Gaming Authority involving any (x) material issues or (y) requests that are outside the ordinary course of business in the context of an investigation for a similar transaction, to promptly advise the general counsel of the Company and to make available Parent’s Nevada gaming counsel, and any other relevant state gaming regulatory counsel and Parent’s outside accounting firm, to discuss any such issues or requests, and (ii) to make Parent’s Nevada gaming counsel, and other relevant state gaming regulatory counsel and Parent’s outside accounting firm, available to the general counsel of the Company for the purpose of discussing the status of the gaming regulatory approval process.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent and Merger Sub shall not be required to (x) furnish to the Company or its general counsel any confidential personal information with respect to any individual, or (y) provide for representatives of the Company to participate in communications or meetings in which a Gaming Authority is reviewing or discussing such confidential personal information with respect to any individual.

(e)                                  If at any time after the date hereof the Company completes its acquisition of PokerTek, Inc., the Company shall (and cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) obtain all Gaming Approvals required to operate PokerTek, Inc.; (ii) make any filings or submissions with appropriate Governmental Authorities to obtain the necessary clearances to operate PokerTek, Inc. pursuant to applicable Law (including Gaming Law); (iii) obtain any other licenses that are required for PokerTek, Inc. to conduct business in any jurisdiction in which it operates; and (iv) maintain any of the foregoing.  Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall (and cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) furnish to Parent such necessary information and reasonable assistance as Parent may request in connection with the preparation of any required filings or submissions with any Governmental Authority in connection with the acquisition of PokerTek, Inc. and will reasonably cooperate in responding to any inquiry from a Governmental Authority, including promptly informing Parent of such inquiry, consulting in advance before making any presentations or submissions to a Governmental Authority, and supplying Parent with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications between the Company or its Subsidiaries and any Governmental Authority with respect to the obligations set forth in this Section (other than confidential business information or private or personal information pertaining to any individual applicants which may remain confidential).

(f)                                   Without prejudice to the provisions of Section 6.5, (i) none of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub shall take any action to purposely or knowingly materially delay or impair the Merger Closing, and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub shall not take any action that would cause the representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub set forth in the second sentence of Section 5.9 to be untrue.

59

Section 6.4                                    Access to Information; Confidentiality.  From the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, the Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to, provide to Parent and its authorized Representatives (x) reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice from Parent to their respective personnel, facilities, properties, books, contracts and records as Parent may reasonably request and (y) such financial and operating data of the Company and its Subsidiaries and other information with respect to the business, properties and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to provide access to, or cause its Subsidiaries to provide access to, or disclose (a) any information or documents which would (in the reasonable judgment of the Company) be reasonably likely to (i) constitute a waiver of the attorney-client or other privilege held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) violate any applicable Laws (and the Company shall be permitted to implement customary “clean-room” or other similar arrangements if the Company reasonably determines, upon advice of outside counsel, that such arrangements are necessary to comply with applicable Law), (iii) unreasonably disrupt the businesses and operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) breach any agreement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with any Third Party; provided, that each party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consents and take such other reasonable action (such as the entry into a joint defense agreement or other arrangement to avoid loss of attorney client privilege) to permit such access or disclosure; or (b) if the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation, any information that is reasonably pertinent thereto.  All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and the parties shall comply with, and shall cause their respective Representatives (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) to comply with, all of their respective obligations thereunder.

Section 6.5                                    Acquisition Proposals.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.5, from the date hereof until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company will not, nor shall it authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries to, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly (i) initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage or facilitate (including by way of providing non-public information) the making of any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or request for information that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) other than informing Third Parties of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 6.5, engage in negotiations or substantive discussions with, or furnish any nonpublic information to, any Third Party relating to an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or request for information that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that the Company may ascertain facts from the party making such Acquisition Proposal for the sole purpose of the Company Board informing itself about the Acquisition Proposal and the party making it.  The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives to, promptly cease and cause to be terminated all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, promptly request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished and promptly terminate all

60

physical and electronic dataroom access previously granted to any such Person or its Representatives.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time on or following the date hereof and prior to the date that the Requisite Shareholder Approval is obtained at the Shareholders’ Meeting, in the event that the Company receives a written Acquisition Proposal, which Acquisition Proposal was made after the date of this Agreement and did not result from a material breach of this Section 6.5, the Company and the Company Board and their Representatives may, subject to compliance with this Section 6.5(b), (A) engage in negotiations or substantive discussions (including, as a part thereof, making counterproposals) with, or (B) furnish any information and other access to, any Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives or potential sources of financing if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisor, and based on information then available, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Superior Proposal; provided, that (x) prior to furnishing any material nonpublic information, the Company receives from such Third Party an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (y) any such material nonpublic information so furnished has been previously provided or made available to Parent or is provided or made available (including through posting on the Electronic Data Room) to Parent as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 24 hours thereafter) after being so furnished to such Third Party. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.5 by any Representative of the Company or any of its Affiliates (including the Company Board or any committee thereof) acting in such capacity and at the direction of the Company shall constitute a breach of this Section 6.5 by the Company.

(c)                                  Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 6.5(c) or Section 6.5(d), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw (or qualify or modify in any manner adverse to Parent), or publicly propose to withdraw (or so qualify or modify), the Company Board Recommendation, or (B) approve, adopt or recommend any Acquisition Proposal, or propose publicly to approve, adopt or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Change in Recommendation”) or (ii) approve, adopt or recommend, or propose publicly to approve, adopt or recommend, or allow the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to execute any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or similar definitive agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) with any Third Party constituting or relating to any Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval, the Company Board may make a Change in Recommendation and terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and this Section 6.5(c) if the Company Board determines (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, that the Company has provided Parent four (4) Business Day’s prior written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons for such action; and provided, further, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and this Section 6.5(c) unless the Company pays, or causes to be paid, to Parent

61

the Company Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(ii) prior to or concurrently with such termination.

(d)                                 Without limiting Section 6.5(c), at any time prior to receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval, in response to a written Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement and not arising as a result of a material breach of this Section 6.5 that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor) constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and this Section 6.5(d)  and, concurrently with such termination, may enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and this Section 6.5(d) unless the Company pays, or causes to be paid, to Parent the Company Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(ii) prior to or concurrently with such termination.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii)  and Section 6.5(d), (x) unless the Company shall have provided to Parent four (4) days prior written notice (the “6.5 Notice”) advising Parent that the Company intends to take such action (and (unless a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreement has been provided to Parent) specifying, in reasonable detail, the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal, with all information regarding the identity of the Third Party making any such Superior Proposal redacted) and, if applicable, a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreement and all material related documentation, and (y):

(i)                                     during such four (4) day period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall have engaged, and shall have caused its Representatives to engage, in good faith negotiations with Parent regarding changes to the terms of this Agreement intended to cause such Acquisition Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(ii)                                  the Company Board shall have considered any adjustments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and the other agreements contemplated hereby that may be irrevocably offered in writing by Parent (the “Proposed Changed Terms”) no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth (4th) day of such four (4) day period and shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor) that the Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such Proposed Changed Terms were to be given effect.

(it being understood that any material revision or amendment to the terms of such Superior Proposal shall require a new 6.5 Notice (but only on two (2) additional occasions) and, in such case, all references to four (4) days in this Section 6.5(e) shall be deemed to be twenty-four (24) hours).

(f)                                   The Company shall promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours or, in the event the Company Board determines to take any of the actions contemplated by Section 6.5(b)  in accordance with the terms thereof, substantially concurrent with such

62

determination) advise Parent orally and as promptly as possible thereafter in writing in the event that the Company receives any Acquisition Proposal, and in connection with such notice, provide to Parent the material terms and conditions (including the identity of the Third Party making any such Acquisition Proposal unless such disclosure would violate any Contract by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound) of any such Acquisition Proposal.  The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status and material details (including any material change to the terms thereof) of any such Acquisition Proposal and any discussions and negotiations concerning the material terms and conditions thereof.

(g)                                  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board, directly or indirectly through their respective Representatives, from (i) taking and disclosing any position or disclosing any information reasonably required under applicable Law or in compliance with or otherwise complying with Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to the Company’s shareholders), and to the extent referred to therein, Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company’s shareholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to the Company’s shareholders), or (iii) making any disclosure not of the type provided in clauses (i) or (ii) above to the Company’s shareholders that is reasonably required by applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board shall not make a Change in Recommendation or make or authorize any disclosure which would reasonably be expected to have the same effect as a Change in Recommendation, except in each case in accordance with Section 6.5(c).

(h)                                 For purposes of this Agreement:

(i)                                     “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any bona fide proposal or offer (other than a proposal or offer by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) from a Third Party relating to (i) a merger, reorganization, sale of assets, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation, joint venture or similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whose revenues, income, EBITDA or assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the consolidated revenues, income, EBITDA or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (in the case of revenue, income and EBITDA, measured over the previous twelve (12) months, and in the case of assets, based on fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Company Board); (ii) the acquisition (whether by merger, consolidation, equity investment, joint venture or otherwise) by any Person of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (based on fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Company Board); (iii) the acquisition in any manner, directly or indirectly, by any Person of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock; (iv) any purchase, acquisition, tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Company Common Stock or any class of equity or voting securities of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries whose revenues, income, EBITDA or assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the consolidated revenues,

63

income, EBITDA or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (in the case of revenue, income and EBITDA, measured over the previous twelve (12) months, and in the case of assets, based on fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Company Board)), or (v) any combination of the foregoing.

(ii)                                  “Superior Proposal” shall mean an Acquisition Proposal (with the references to “twenty-five percent (25%)” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal  deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%)”) made by a Third Party on terms that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside counsel, and considering such factors as the Company Board considers in good faith to be appropriate (including the conditionality and the timing and likelihood of consummation of such proposal), are more favorable to the holders of Company Common Stock than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after giving effect to all Proposed Changed Terms).

Section 6.6                                    Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.  (a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to exculpation and indemnification (and all rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto) for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including any matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger), now existing in favor of the Indemnitees as provided in the Charter or Bylaws (or such equivalent organizational or governing documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates as in effect on the date of this Agreement) or in any Contract between such Indemnitee and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (in each case as in effect on the date hereof) shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect.  From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to, to the fullest extent the Company would have been permitted to do so under applicable Law, Indemnitees with respect to (x) all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such at any time at or prior to the Effective Time or (y) any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arises out of or pertains to the Merger, this Agreement and any transactions contemplated hereby, in either case, to the fullest extent permitted by (i) the Charter or Bylaws (or such equivalent organizational or governing documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates as in effect on the date of this Agreement), (ii) any indemnification agreement of the Company or its Subsidiaries or other applicable Contract as in effect on the date of this Agreement, which provisions thereafter shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnitees or (iii) applicable Law.  Parent shall cause the certificate of formation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitation of director, officer and employee liability that are no less favorable to the Indemnitees than those set forth in the Charter and Bylaws and the Company’s Subsidiaries’ organizational documents as of the date of this Agreement, which provisions thereafter shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnitees.

64

(b)                                 Without limiting the provisions of Section 6.6(a), to the fullest extent the Company would have been permitted to do so under applicable Law, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will pay in advance of the final disposition of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any Indemnitee upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount even if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.6(b)  or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to) settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 6.6(b)  unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnitees from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, and does not include an admission of fault or wrongdoing by any Indemnitee.

(c)                                  Prior to the Effective Time, at the Company’s option, the Company shall, after consultation with Parent, or, if the Company is unable to (or otherwise fails), the Surviving Corporation shall obtain and fully pay the premium for the non-cancelable extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, the “D&O Insurance”), in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies as in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that the Company or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall not be required to pay an aggregate premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such insurance.  If such “tail” prepaid policy has been obtained by either the Company or the Surviving Corporation prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall honor all obligations under such policy and cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect for its full term.  If the Company or the Surviving Corporation for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall continue to maintain in effect, for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the D&O Insurance in place as of the date hereof with the Company’s current insurance carrier or with an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof, or (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall provide, for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Indemnitees who are insured under the Company’s D&O Insurance with comparable D&O Insurance that provides coverage for events occurring at or prior to the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier, that is no less favorable than the existing policy of the Company as of the date hereof or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the annual

65

premium currently paid by the Company for such insurance; provided, further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 6.6(c).

(d)                                 The Indemnitees to whom this Section 6.6 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.6.  The provisions of this Section 6.6 are intended to be for the benefit of each Indemnitee and his or her successors, heirs or representatives.  To the fullest extent the Company would have been permitted to do so under applicable Law, Parent shall pay all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnitee in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 6.6.

(e)                                  The rights of each Indemnitee under this Section 6.6 shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the Charter or Bylaws (or equivalent organizational or governing documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries), certificate of formation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation, under any applicable Law or under any agreement of any Indemnitee with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(f)                                   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 6.6 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, and shall be enforceable by the Indemnitees and their successors, heirs or representatives.  In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.6 and use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that a Person no less financially viable than the Surviving Corporation (in the event the Effective Time occurs) remains responsible for the obligations of such party under this Section 6.6.

Section 6.7                                    Notification of Certain Matters.  Unless prohibited by applicable Law, the Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give prompt notice to the Company, upon receiving Knowledge of (a) any notice, complaint, investigation or hearing (or communications indicating that the same may be contemplated) from any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) any written notice of any Person (other than a Governmental Authority) alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, (c) any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced or, to such party’s Knowledge, threatened in writing against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such party or any of its Subsidiaries which relate to this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (d) any material change, effect, development or circumstance that would reasonably be expected to give rise to a failure of a condition precedent in Section 7.2 (in the case of the Company) and Section 7.3 (in the case of Parent);

66

provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties herein or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereunder and any failure to make such notification (in and of itself) shall not be taken into account in determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 (in the case of the Company) and Section 7.3 (in the case of Parent) have been satisfied or give rise to any right of termination to any party hereto under Article VIII.

Section 6.8                                    Public Announcements.  The initial press release(s) announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be in a form mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company.  Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing, and, to the extent practicable, give each other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on, any other press release or other public announcements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public announcement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by applicable Law, court process or the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the Company will no longer be required to consult with Parent in connection with any such press release or public announcement if the Company Board has effected any Change in Recommendation or shall have resolved to do so and (ii) the requirements of this Section 6.8 shall not apply to any disclosure by the Company or Parent of any information concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.9                                    Employee Matters.

(a)                                 Continuing Employees.

(i)                                     Commencing at the Effective Time and until one (1) year thereafter (provided that if the Merger Closing occurs on or prior to March 31, 2015, such period shall end on December 31, 2015), Parent shall provide or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation) to provide to employees of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries who are located in the United States (“Company Employees”) for so long as they continue employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates during such period (A) a base salary or wage rate, as applicable, and annual bonus opportunity at least equal to the applicable Company Employee’s base salary or wage rate and annual bonus opportunity in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding annual bonus opportunity for any Key Employee) and (B) other compensation (excluding equity, equity based and other similar long term incentive opportunities) and employee benefits (including vacation policies, retirement benefits, health, welfare and fringe benefits or similar arrangements) that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, to the compensation and employee benefits being provided to the applicable Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(ii)                                  Without limiting Section 6.9(a)(i), Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to assume (if applicable), honor, and provide all of the Company’s employment, severance, retention and change in control obligations in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement.

67

(iii)                               For purposes of eligibility, vesting, and benefit accrual (solely for the purposes of determining accrual of vacation and paid time off) under the compensation and benefit plans, programs agreements and arrangements maintained by Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any respective Subsidiary and Affiliate thereof providing benefits to any Company Employees after the Merger Closing (the “New Plans”), and determination of level of benefits, each Company Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company (including any predecessor), the Company Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates (and any additional service with any predecessor employer) before the Merger Closing, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Merger Closing, to credit for such service under any similar Company Benefit Plan; provided, however, that in no event shall Company Employees be entitled to service credit for any purpose under post-retirement welfare plans or to the extent such service credit would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.  In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (A) each Company Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a comparable Company Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately before the replacement; and (B) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Company Employee from and after the Effective Time, (x) Parent shall cause all pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, waiting periods and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, waiting periods or actively-at-work requirements were waived or satisfied under the comparable Company Benefit Plan, and (y) Parent shall recognize, or cause to be recognized, any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents under a Company Benefit Plan during the portion of the plan year prior to the Effective Time to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, co-insurance, co-payment and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(iv)                              For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any Company Benefit Plan, for purposes of any Company Benefit Plan containing a definition of “change in control” or “change of control,” the Merger Closing shall be deemed to constitute a “change in control” or “change of control.”

(b)                                 The Company shall provide Parent, with a copy of any material written communications intended for broad-based and general distribution to any current or former employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if such communications relate to the transactions contemplated hereby and will provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review such communications prior to distribution.

(c)                                  This Section 6.9 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 6.9, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason

68

of this Section 6.9, is intended to be, or shall constitute or be construed as an amendment to or modification of the Company Benefit Plans, New Plan or any other employee benefit plan or arrangement of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates or limit in any way the right of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Company Benefit Plan, New Plan or any other employee benefit plans or arrangements.  Nothing in this Section 6.9 shall limit the right of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any Company Employee at any time following the Effective Time.

(d)                                 No later than twenty (20) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall make available to Parent (i) information relating to each payment (whether in cash or property or the vesting of property) or benefit that is conditioned on or accelerated by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to any “disqualified individual” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1 that is reasonably expected to be characterized as an “excess parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) and (ii) each disqualified individual’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code).

Section 6.10                             Conduct of Business by Parent Pending the Merger. Parent and Merger Sub covenant and agree with the Company that between the date hereof and the earlier of the Effective Time and the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take or agree to take any action (including entering into agreements with respect to any acquisitions, mergers, consolidations or business combinations) which would reasonably be expected to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.11                             Financing. (a) Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that the Company and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives shall not have any responsibility for, or incur any liability to any Person under, any financing that Parent and Merger Sub may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any cooperation provided pursuant to Section 6.12 and that Parent and Merger Sub shall, on a joint and several basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith.

(b)                                 Each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use their respective 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 proceeds of the Financing on the terms and conditions, taken as a whole (including the flex provisions) described in the Financing Commitments, including executing and delivering all such documents and instruments as may be reasonably required thereunder and using (and causing their Affiliates to use) their respective reasonable best efforts to:

(i)                                     comply with and maintain in effect the Financing and the Financing Commitments, negotiate and enter into Financing Agreements with respect thereto (and maintain in effect and comply with the terms thereof) on the terms and conditions

69

contained in the Financing Commitments (as such terms may be modified or adjusted in accordance with the terms of any “flex” provisions set forth in the Financing Commitments (including as specified in any Fee Letter)) or on other terms no less favorable to Parent and Merger Sub with respect to the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to consummate the Merger or obtain the Financing than those contained in the Financing Commitments; provided, however, that, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any of the Financing Agreements, except in accordance with the terms of the Financing Commitments:  (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing provided for in the Financing Commitment (including by changing the amount of fees or original issue discount contemplated by the Financing Commitments) in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger; (B) expand, amend or modify the conditions or other contingencies to the receipt or funding of the Financing beyond those expressly set forth in the Financing Commitments in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to obtain the Financing (including by making any such conditions or other contingencies less likely to be satisfied, it being agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub may modify, supplement or amend the Financing Commitments to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Financing Commitments as of the date hereof on the same terms) or impose any new or additional condition or other contingency to the receipt or funding of the Financing in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to obtain the Financing; (C) contain terms (other than those terms expressly set forth in the Financing Commitments) that would reasonably be expected to (1) prevent or delay in any material respect the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or the date on which the Financing would be obtained, or (2) make the funding of the Financing less likely to occur; or (D) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to enforce their rights against the Financing Sources.

(ii)                                  satisfy, or cause their Representatives to satisfy all conditions to the Financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments and Financing Agreements relating thereto (including by paying any commitment, engagement, or placement or other fees that become due and payable under or with respect to any of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements);

(iii)                               accept (and comply with) to the fullest extent all “market flex” provisions contemplated by the Financing Commitments and the Financing Agreements;

(v)                                 subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereto, cause the Financing Sources to fund the Financing at or prior to the time the Merger Closing is required to occur pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof.

70

(c)                                  Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall agree to or permit any amendment, supplement or other modification or replacement of, or grant any waiver of, any condition, remedy or other provision under any Financing Commitment or any Financing Agreements without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendment, supplement, modification, replacement or waiver would or would reasonably be expected to (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount) from that contemplated by the Financing Commitments delivered as of the date hereof in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger, (ii) impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Financing, in each case, in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to obtain the Financing, (iii) make it less likely that the Financing would be funded (including by making the conditions to obtaining the Financing less likely to occur (it being agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub may modify, supplement or amend the Financing Commitments to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Financing Commitments as of the date hereof on the same terms)) or otherwise prevent or delay or impair in any material respect the ability or likelihood of Parent or Merger Sub to timely consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Financing Commitments or (v) otherwise contravene the limitations set forth in Section 6.11(b)(i)(A)-(D).  Other than in connection with an Alternative Financing, neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall agree to the withdrawal, repudiation, termination or rescission of any Financing Commitment or Financing Agreement or any provision thereof without the prior written consent of the Company (it being agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub may modify, supplement or amend the Financing Commitments to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Financing Commitments as of the date hereof on the same terms).  Upon any amendment, supplement or modification of the Financing Commitment or Financing Agreement in accordance with this Section 6.11(c), Parent shall deliver a copy thereof to the Company and references herein to “Financing Commitment” and “Financing Agreement” (or defined terms that use such phrases) shall include such documents as amended, supplemented or modified in compliance with this Section 6.11(c)  and references to “Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments as amended, supplemented or modified in compliance with this Section 6.11 and the financing contemplated by the Financing Agreements entered into in compliance with this Section 6.11 (as so amended), as applicable.  In addition, Parent shall not enter into any agreement for investment or other provision of financing with respect to the Merger on an exclusive basis with a Financing Source prior to the date that is thirty (30) days after the date hereof.

(d)                                 In the event that all or any portion of the Financing becomes or would reasonably be expected to become unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) or from the sources contemplated in the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements for any reason or any of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements shall be withdrawn, repudiated, terminated or rescinded for any reason, (i) Parent shall promptly so notify the Company and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (and in any event no later than the Merger Closing Date), and to negotiate and enter into definitive

71

agreements with respect to, alternative financing from the same or alternative sources (the “Alternative Financing”), on terms not less favorable, in any material respect, with respect to conditionality and enforceability, when taken as a whole, than those contained in the Financing Commitments to Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (or replace any unavailable portion of the Financing), and to obtain a new financing commitment letter (including any associated engagement letter and related fee letter) with respect to such Alternative Financing (collectively, the “New Financing Commitment Letter”), copies of which shall be promptly provided to the Company (with customary redactions with respect to the fee letter).  In the event any Alternative Financing is obtained and a New Commitment Letter is entered into in accordance with this Section 6.11(d)  (i) any reference in this Agreement to “Financing” or the “Financing” shall mean the debt financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments as modified pursuant to clause (ii) below, and (ii) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing Commitments” (or defined terms that use such phrase) shall be deemed to include the Financing Commitment (and any related Fee Letter) to the extent not superseded by a New Financing Commitment Letter (or related new Fee Letter), as the case may be, at the time in question and any New Financing Commitment Letter (and any related new Fee Letter) to the extent then in effect.  Without the Company’s prior written consent, Parent shall not directly or indirectly take any action that would or would be reasonably expected to result in the Financing not being available.

(e)                                  Any breach of the Financing Commitments or the Financing Agreements by Parent or Merger Sub shall be deemed a breach by Parent of this Section 6.11.  Parent shall (i) furnish the Company drafts (when available) and thereafter complete, correct and executed copies of the Financing Agreements promptly upon their execution, (ii) give the Company prompt written notice (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) of any default, breach or threatened breach by any party of any of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements of which Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Representatives or Affiliates become aware or any termination or threatened termination thereof, and (iii) otherwise keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing (or any Alternative Financing).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall give the Company prompt (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) notice (A) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to give rise to any default or breach) related to the Financing of which Parent becomes aware, (B) of the receipt or delivery of any notice or other communication, in each case from any Person with respect to (x) any actual or potential breach of any provisions of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements by Parent or Merger Sub, or any default, termination or repudiation by any party to any of Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements or other agreements relating to the Financing or (y) any dispute or disagreement between or among parties to any of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Merger Closing and (C) if at any time for any reason Parent believes that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms and conditions, in the manner or from the sources, contemplated by any of the Financing Commitments or Financing Agreements or will be unable to obtain Alternative Financing.  Parent shall promptly provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C) of the immediately preceding sentence.

72

(f)                                   Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of the Financing is not a condition to the Merger Closing, and reaffirms its obligations under this Section 6.11.

Section 6.12                             Financing Cooperation. (a) Subject to Section 6.11(a) and the remaining provisions of this Section 6.12, prior to the Merger Closing, the Company shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at Parent’s sole expense, reasonably cooperate in connection with the arrangement of the Financing or any Alternative Financing, which reasonable cooperation by the Company shall consist of, at the reasonable request of Parent, (i) furnishing Parent and Merger Sub and their Financing Sources with the Required Financial Information as reasonably requested by Parent and (ii) using its reasonable best efforts to (A) cause its senior officers to be available, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to participate in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Financing, and using its reasonable best efforts to facilitate such contact, (B) provide customary assistance with the preparation of appropriate and customary materials for rating agency presentations, offering documents, private placement memoranda, bank information memoranda, prospectuses and similar documents customarily required in connection with debt financings, (C) execute and deliver customary definitive financing documents to be effective no earlier than, and conditioned on the occurrence of, the Effective Time, (D) furnish Parent, to the extent requested in writing by Parent, with reasonable documents or other information required by bank regulatory authorities with respect to the Financing under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the U.S.A.

(c)                                  The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries logos in connection with the Financing; provided, however, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is reasonable and customary for such purposes that does not suggest that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has any responsibility for the documents or materials in which such logos are used (or the contents thereof) and that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective products, services, offerings or intellectual property rights.

74

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the condition set forth in Section 7.2(b), as it applies to the Company’s obligations under this Section 6.12, shall be deemed satisfied if (i) the Company’s breach(es), if any, of its obligations under this Section 6.12 did not cause the failure of the Financing to be obtained or (ii) Parent does not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) as a result of any breaches of this Section 6.12 by the Company.

Section 6.13                             Merger Sub.  Parent will take all actions necessary to (a) cause Merger Sub to comply with this Agreement, perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger, in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and (b) ensure that, prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall not conduct any business or make any investments other than as specifically contemplated by this Agreement, or incur or guarantee any indebtedness or liabilities.

(b)                                 the Company shall have performed or complied in all material respects with all agreements and covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it on or prior to the Merger Closing Date;

(c)                                  since the date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred any change, effect, development or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate, constitutes or is reasonably likely to constitute a Company Material Adverse Effect; and

76

are subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver by the Company at or prior to the Merger Closing Date of the following further conditions:

(a)                                 each of the representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub contained in this Agreement, without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality or Parent Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualifications contained therein, shall be true and correct at and as of the date of this Agreement and the Merger Closing Date (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such date), except for such failures to be true and correct as would not constitute, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect;

(b)                                 Parent and Merger Sub shall have performed or complied in all material respects with all agreements and covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by them on or prior to the Merger Closing Date; and

(c)                                  Parent shall have delivered to the Company a certificate, dated the Merger Closing Date and signed by an executive officer of Parent, certifying to the effect that the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a)  and Section 7.3(b)  have been satisfied.

Section 7.4                                    Frustration of Closing Conditions.  Neither Parent nor Merger Sub may rely on the failure of any conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 to be satisfied if such failure was caused by the failure of Parent or Merger Sub to perform any of their obligations under this Agreement.  The Company may not rely on the failure of any conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 to be satisfied if such failure was caused by the failure of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.

TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

Section 8.1                                    Termination.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after the Requisite Shareholder Approval is obtained (except as otherwise expressly noted), as follows:

(a)                                 by mutual written consent of each of Parent and the Company; or

(b)                                 by either Parent or the Company, if:

(i)                                     the Effective Time shall not have occurred on or before 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on June 8, 2015 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that if the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(b), Section 7.1(c) or Section 7.1(d) shall not have been satisfied or duly waived by all parties entitled to the benefit of such condition by the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Termination Date, either Parent or the Company may, by written notice delivered to such other party, extend the Termination Date from time to time by a maximum of one (1) additional one (1) month period but ultimately to a date not later than July 8, 2015 unless Parent and the Company agree otherwise, which date shall thereafter be considered the Termination Date; provided, further, that if the

77

conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 shall have been satisfied or duly waived by all parties entitled to the benefit of such conditions prior to the Termination Date, the Company may, by written notice delivered to Parent, extend the Termination Date from time to time by a maximum of one (1) additional one (1) month period but ultimately to a date not later than July 8, 2015 unless Parent agrees otherwise, which date shall thereafter be considered the Termination Date; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement or extend the Termination Date pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(i)  shall not be available to either party if it has materially breached or violated any of its covenants, agreements or other obligations hereunder and such material breach or violation has been a principal cause of or directly resulted in (1) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the obligations of the terminating party to consummate the Merger set forth in Article VII prior to the Termination Date (as the same may be extended) or (2) the failure of the Merger Closing to occur by the Termination Date (as the same may be extended); or

(ii)                                  any Restraint shall be in effect enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, and such Restraint shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall have complied with its obligations under Section 6.3 with respect to such Restraint; and provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to a party if the issuance of such final, non-appealable Restraint was primarily due to the failure of such party, and in the case of Parent, including the failure of Merger Sub, to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement; or

(iii)                               the Requisite Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Shareholders’ Meeting duly convened therefor or at any adjournment or postponement thereof; or

(c)                                  by the Company if:

(i)                                     Parent or Merger Sub shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (x) would give rise to a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) and (y) (A) is not capable of being cured prior to the Termination Date or (B) is not cured by Parent or Merger Sub on or before the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) the date that is thirty (30) days following the receipt by Parent of written notice from the Company of such breach or failure; provided, however, that the Company shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(i) if the Company is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder;

(ii)                                  prior to receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval, the Company Board shall have (x) effected a Change in Recommendation to the extent permitted by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 6.5(c) or (y) determined to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal to the extent permitted by, and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6.5(d) and Section 6.5(e),

78

in each case of clauses (x) and (y) above so long as concurrently with such termination, the Company pays, or causes to be paid, to Parent the Company Termination Fee specified in Section 8.3(a)(ii); or

(iii)                               the Marketing Period has ended and all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Merger Closing, provided that such conditions are reasonably capable of being satisfied), and Parent and Merger Sub shall have failed to consummate the Merger by the time the Merger Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.2 as a result of a breach by the Financing Sources of their obligations to make available to Parent and Merger Sub the full amount of the Financing pursuant to the Financing Commitments (or if definitive agreements have been entered into in connection with the Financing, pursuant to such definitive agreements).

(d)                                 by Parent:

(i)                                     if the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (x) would give rise to the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.2(a)  or Section 7.2(b)  and (y) (A) is not capable of being cured prior to the Termination Date or (B) is not cured by the Company on or before the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) the date that is thirty (30) days following the receipt by the Company of written notice from Parent of such breach or failure; provided, however, that Parent shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d)(i) if Parent or Merger Sub is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder; or

(ii)                                  in the event that (A) the Company shall have failed to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement distributed to its shareholders, (B) a Change in Recommendation has occurred or (C) a tender offer or exchange offer that would, if consummated, constitute an Acquisition Proposal shall have been commenced by a Person unaffiliated with Parent and the Company shall not have published, sent or given to its shareholders, pursuant to Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act, within ten (10) Business Days after such tender offer or exchange offer is first published, sent or given, or subsequently amended in any material respect, a statement recommending that shareholders reject such tender offer or exchange offer and affirming the Company Board Recommendation; provided, however, that Parent shall no longer be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d)(ii) once the Requisite Shareholder Approval has been obtained at the Shareholders’ Meeting; provided, further, that Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d)(ii) shall expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date on which the event first permitting such termination occurred.

79

Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and of no effect without liability on the part of any party hereto (or any of its Representatives), and all rights and obligations of any party hereto shall cease; provided that if (x) such termination resulted, directly or indirectly, from the Intentional Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein or (y) the Intentional Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein shall cause the Merger Closing not to occur, then, notwithstanding such termination, such breaching party shall be fully liable for any and all damages, costs, expenses (including pursuant to Section 9.13), liabilities or other losses of any kind, in each case, incurred or suffered by the other party (collectively, “Damages”) as a result of such Intentional Breach; provided, further that the Confidentiality Agreement, and the provisions of Section 4.26 (Brokers), Section 5.13 (Brokers), Section 6.4 (Access to Information; Confidentiality) (last sentence only), Section 6.11(a) (Financing), Section 6.12(b) (Financing Cooperation), Article I (Definitions), Article VIII (Termination) and Article IX (General Provisions) shall survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1.

(b)                                 Certain Limitations.

(i)                                     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion and (B) in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Funding Failure Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(ii)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to Section 9.9, Parent’s right to receive payment from the Company of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(a) shall constitute the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of Parent and Merger Sub against the Company and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates or assignees (collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) for all Damages suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise), and upon payment of such amount, none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise).

Section 8.4                                    Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the parties hereto by action taken by or on behalf of their respective boards of directors at any time before or after receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval; provided, however, that after the Requisite Shareholder Approval has been obtained, there shall not be any amendment that by Law requires further approval by the shareholders of the Company without such further approval of such shareholders.  This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Section 8.3(c), this Section 8.4, Section 9.7, Section 9.8, Section 9.9(b), Section 9.10(c), Section 9.12 or Section 9.15 (in each case, together with any related definitions and other provisions of this Agreement to the extent a modification or termination would serve to modify the substance or provisions or such Sections) may not be amended, modified, waived or terminated in a manner that is adverse to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

Section 8.5                                    Extension; Waiver.  At any time prior to the Effective Time, subject to applicable Law, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (c) subject to the proviso of the first sentence of Section 8.4, waive compliance with any agreement or condition contained herein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.  Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

82

Section 8.6                                    Expenses.  Except as expressly set forth herein (including Section 6.12(b), Section 8.2, Section 8.3 and Section 9.13), all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

Section 9.3                                    Interpretation; Certain Definitions.  (a) The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(b)                                 The inclusion of any item in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to be an admission or evidence of materiality of such item, nor shall it establish any standard of materiality for any purpose whatsoever.  No disclosure in the Company Disclosure Letter relating to any possible breach or violation of any contract or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication with respect to any third party that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

84

(c)                                  When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, Section, Appendix, Schedule, Annex or Exhibit, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of, or an Appendix, Schedule, Annex or Exhibit to, this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated.  The table of contents and headings for this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole, including all Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes and Appendices, and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

(d)                                 All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.

(e)                                  Any Law defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor Laws and the related regulations and published interpretations thereof; provided, that for purposes of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that are made as of a specific date or dates, references to any Law shall be deemed to refer to such Law, as amended, and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case, as of such date.  References to a Person are also to its successors and permitted assigns.

(f)                                   The words “made available to Parent” or words of similar import refer to documents (x) posted to the Electronic Data Room on or prior to the date hereof or (y) delivered in Person or electronically to Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Representatives.  The specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty contained in Article IV or Article V is not intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, are or are not material for purposes of this Agreement, and no party shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount in any dispute or controversy between or among the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.  The phrases “the date of this Agreement” and “the date hereof” and terms or phrases of similar import shall be deemed to refer to September 8, 2014, unless the context requires otherwise.  When used in reference to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the term “material” shall be measured against the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.”  The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.”  References to “$” or “dollars” in this Agreement shall mean United States dollars.  Words describing the singular number shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa, words denoting any gender shall be deemed to include all genders and words denoting natural Persons shall be deemed to include business entities and vice versa.  Whenever the words “day” or “days” are used in this Agreement, they are deemed to refer to calendar days unless expressly stated to be Business Days.

85

Section 9.4                                    Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any present or future Law, or public policy, (a) such term or other provision shall be fully separable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, and (c) all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable term or other provision or by its severance herefrom so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 9.5                                    Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided that Parent or Merger Sub may assign any of their respective rights and obligations to any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent or to any other Person of Parent’s choosing, but no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, of its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that such assignment shall not prevent or materially delay the Merger Closing.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns.  Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 9.5 shall be null and void.

Section 9.6                                    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the Exhibits, Schedules, Annexes and Appendices hereto and other documents delivered pursuant hereto) constitutes, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter, the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 9.7                                    No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except for (a) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of the Company’s shareholders to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time, (b) from and after the Effective Time, the right of the holders of Company Options to receive the Option Cash Payment, (c) from and after the Effective Time, the right of the holders of Company Restricted Stock Units to receive Restricted Award Payments, (d) from and after the Effective Time, the right of the holders of Company Performance Share Awards, to receive the Performance Share Award Payments, (e) the provisions of Section 6.6 (which shall be enforceable by the Indemnitees), (h) the provisions of Section 6.12(b)  (which shall be enforceable by the 6.12 Indemnitees) and (i) with respect to the Financing Sources, the provisions of Section 8.3(c), Section 8.4, this Section 9.7, Section 9.8, Section 9.9(b), Section 9.10(c), Section 9.12 and Section 9.15.  The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit

86

of the parties hereto.  Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto in accordance with Section 8.5 without notice or liability to any other Person.  The representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the Knowledge of any of the parties hereto.  Accordingly, Persons other than the parties hereto may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

Section 9.8                                    Governing Law.  The provisions of this Agreement and any other document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto, their negotiation, execution, performance or nonperformance, interpretation, termination, construction and all matters based upon, arising out of or related to any of the foregoing (whether in equity, law or statute) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws, both procedural and substantive, of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such State; provided, however, that the laws of the State of Texas shall govern to the extent that the provisions of the TBOC are specifically referenced herein or that it is mandatory that the TBOC apply to any of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and to (i) the rights (including dissenters’ rights) of shareholders in connection with, the Merger and (ii) the duties and obligations of the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 9.9                                    Specific Performance.  (a) The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions.  Accordingly, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 9.9, including the limitations set forth in Section 9.9(b), the parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled, without posting a bond or other indemnity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is acknowledged and agreed that the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger only in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied:  (i) the Marketing Period, if applicable, has ended and all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied or waived at the Merger Closing, provided that such conditions are reasonably capable of being satisfied), (ii) Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Merger Closing by the date the Merger Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.2, (iii) the Financing (including any Alternative Financing that has been obtained in accordance with, and satisfies the conditions of, Section 6.11(d) of this Agreement) has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or will be funded in accordance with the terms thereof at the Merger Closing assuming satisfaction by Parent or Merger Sub of the conditions precedent thereto under their respective control, and (iv) the Company has confirmed in an irrevocable written notice delivered to Parent that if specific performance is granted and the Financing is

87

funded, then it would take such actions that are within its control to cause the Merger Closing to occur.  For the avoidance of doubt, (x) in no event shall the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger if the Financing has not been funded or will not be funded at the Closing.  For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance as and only to the extent expressly permitted by this Section 9.9 and the payment of the Funding Failure Termination Fee (only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 8.3(a)(ii)), under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both such grant of specific performance to cause the Closing to occur in accordance with this Section 9.9 and payment of the Funding Failure Termination Fee, or alternatively, any other monetary damages or other monetary remedies, whether under this Agreement, the Financing Commitment Letters or otherwise.

(c)                                  Subject to Section 9.9(b), each party hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by such party, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.9.  Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction all in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.9.  The parties hereto further agree, subject to Section 9.9(b), that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 9.9, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 9.9 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 9.9 shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 9.9 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article VIII, nor shall the commencement of any legal proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.9 or anything set forth in this Section 9.9 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VIII or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

Section 9.10                             Consent to Jurisdiction.  (a) Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the County, City and State of New York and appellate courts therefrom (collectively, the “Chosen Courts”), for the purpose of any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect to such action or proceeding may be heard and determined exclusively in the Chosen Courts.

(b)                                 Each of the parties hereto (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party and nothing in this Section 9.10 shall affect the right of any

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Financing or the performance thereof, in any forum other than a court of competent jurisdiction located within the City of New York, New York, whether a state or Federal court, and that the provisions of Section 9.12 relating to the waiver of jury trial shall apply to any such action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim.  The provisions of this Section 9.10(c) shall be enforceable by each Financing Source, its Affiliates and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.11                             Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission, including by e-mail attachment, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.12                             WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF PARENT, MERGER SUB AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT, MERGER SUB OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
