The Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”), and the separate corporate existence of the Company with all its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises shall continue unaffected by the Merger. At the Merger Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Merger Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date, the Company and Merger Sub shall file a certificate of merger as contemplated by the DGCL (the “Certificate of Merger”), together with any required related certificates, filings or recordings, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of, the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date and time as the Company and Parent may agree upon and as is set forth in such Certificate of Merger (such time, the “Merger Effective Time”).

Section 3.04 Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with Section 10.01, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall occur as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than the third (3rd) Business Day) after all of the conditions set forth in Article IX (other than conditions which by their terms are required to be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) shall have been satisfied or waived by the party entitled to the benefit of the same, or at such other time and on a date as agreed to by the parties (the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C., or at such other place as agreed to by the parties hereto.

ARTICLE IV

EFFECTS OF THE MERGER

Section 4.01 Effects of the Merger on Company Securities. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company or the holders of any capital stock of the Company (other than any requisite approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders in accordance with the DGCL):

(a) Each share of Company Common Stock held in treasury and each share of Company Common Stock that is owned by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(b) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(a)), shall be converted and exchanged automatically into the right to receive:

(i) 0.2820 shares of Parent Common Stock, payable to the holder thereof in accordance with Section 4.05, and

(ii) A number of additional shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Milestone Shares”), upon FDA Approval of Dyloject (the “Dyloject Approval”) calculated as follows:

A. If the Dyloject Approval occurs on or prior to June 30, 2010, 0.0491 shares of Parent Common Stock; or

B. If the Dyloject Approval occurs after June 30, 2010, but on or prior to January 31, 2011, 0.0246 shares of Parent Common Stock; or

C. If the Dyloject Approval occurs after January 31, 2011, but on or prior to June 30, 2011, 0.0123 shares of Parent Common Stock.

The shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i) are collectively referred to as the “Closing Merger Consideration.” The right to receive Milestone Shares shall not be assignable or transferable, except by operation of law or the laws of descent and distribution. The securities issuable pursuant to this Section 4.01(b), including the Closing Merger Consideration and the Milestone Shares, if any, are collectively referred to as the “Merger Consideration.” The shares of Company Common Stock whether in the form of a certificate (a “Company Common Share Certificate”) or book-entry share (a “Book-Entry Share”) that are to be so converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration are referred to herein as the “Merger Shares”. From and after the Merger Effective Time, all such Merger Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of any Merger Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor, without interest thereon, upon the surrender of such Merger Shares in accordance with Section 4.05.

(c) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender of such holder’s Merger Shares be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global Market on the date the Merger becomes effective (with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i)), or on the Business Day immediately prior to the day shares of Company Common Stock are issued pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(ii).

(d) Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 4.02 Treatment of Company Stock Options.

(a) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Company shall take commercially reasonable actions to provide that each Company Stock Option then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans, as well as any arrangement for the issuance of Company Stock Options not covered by the Company Stock Plans, shall be of no further force or effect as of the Merger Effective Time (either because such Company Stock Option shall have been exercised prior to the Merger Effective Time or shall have been otherwise canceled and terminated (without regard to the exercise price of the Company Stock Options) as of or prior to the Merger Effective Time).

(b) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Company shall take commercially reasonable actions to provide holders of Company Stock Options with written notice that (i) options vested and exercisable as of the date of such notice (or that otherwise vest and become exercisable by their terms as a result of the Merger) may be exercised by the holders of such Company Stock Options within a specified number of calendar days from the date of such notice, which period shall expire prior to the Merger Effective Time and (ii) at the end of the such period, the Company Stock Options shall be canceled and terminated.

(c) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, all of the Company Stock Plans effective at or prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be terminated and of no further force or effect.

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall take commercially reasonable actions to ensure that the Company will not, at the Merger Effective Time, be bound by any options, stock appreciation rights, or other rights or agreements which would entitle any Person, other than Parent and its Subsidiaries, to own any capital stock of the Surviving Corporation or to receive any payment in respect thereof.

(e) The Company and Parent shall each take commercially reasonable actions to cause all dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including Company Stock Options) or acquisitions of equity securities of Parent (including any options to acquire Parent Common Stock that may be granted by Parent) by each individual who (i) is a director or officer of the Company, or (ii) at the Merger Effective Time will become a director or officer of Parent, to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

Section 4.03 Treatment of Company Stock Purchase Plan; Company Warrants and Restricted Shares.

(a) The Company shall take any and all actions with respect to the Company’s 2007 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) as are necessary to provide that: (i) with respect to the Offering Period (as defined in the ESPP) in effect as of the date hereof, no employee who is not a participant in the ESPP as of the date hereof may become after the date hereof a participant in the ESPP and no participant in the ESPP may increase the percentage amount of his or her payroll deduction election from that in effect on the date hereof for such Offering Period; (ii) subject to consummation of the Merger, the ESPP shall terminate, effective immediately before the Merger Effective Time (the “ESPP Termination Date”); and (iii) if the Offering Period (as defined in the ESPP) in effect as of the date hereof terminates prior to the ESPP Termination Date, the ESPP shall be suspended and no new Offering Period will be commenced under the ESPP unless this Agreement shall have terminated prior to the consummation of the Merger. If such Offering Period is still in effect on the ESPP Termination Date, then on the ESPP Termination Date, each purchase right under the ESPP as of the ESPP Termination Date shall be automatically exercised by applying the payroll deductions of each participant in the ESPP for such Offering Period to the purchase of a number of whole shares of Company Common Stock (subject to the provisions of the ESPP regarding the number of shares purchasable) at an exercise price per share determined pursuant to the terms of the ESPP using the ESPP Termination Date as the Purchase Date (as defined in the ESPP), which number of shares will then be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 4.01(b) hereof. Any excess payroll deductions not used as a result of ESPP share limitations shall be distributed to each participant without interest. If a fractional number of shares of Company Common Stock results, then such number shall be rounded down to the next whole number, and the excess payroll deductions shall be distributed to the applicable participant without interest.

(b) Parent agrees that at the Merger Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised Company Warrant will be assumed by Parent. Each such outstanding Company Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, except that such Company Warrants shall be exercisable for shares of Parent Common Stock, with the numbers of shares purchasable and exercise price adjusted as set forth in such assumed Company Warrants. From and after the Merger Effective Time, unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company in the Company Warrants shall be deemed to refer to Parent. Parent shall, on or prior to the Merger Effective Time, reserve for issuance the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will become subject to the assumed Company Warrants pursuant to this Section 4.03(b).

(c) Any share of, or any right to a share of, Company Common Stock held by any participant in or under any Company Stock Plan that is, prior to the Merger Effective Time, unvested or otherwise restricted or deferred (if any) shall, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, become vested and in the case of any such right the shares of Company Common Stock to be paid thereunder shall be distributed prior to the Merger Effective Time, and thereafter such unrestricted shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated in the manner described in Section 4.01(b) above.

Section 4.04 Effects of the Merger on Merger Sub Securities. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by Merger Sub or Parent, as the holder of all outstanding capital stock of Merger

Sub (other than the requisite approval by the sole stockholder of Merger Sub in accordance with the DGCL, which approval has been obtained), each outstanding share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid

and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 4.05 Payment of Merger Consideration; Stock Transfer Books.

(a) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, Parent shall appoint as exchange agent a bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”). At or prior to the Merger Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause the Surviving Corporation to deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Merger Shares, sufficient shares of Parent Common Stock to satisfy the aggregate Closing Merger Consideration and sufficient cash to satisfy payments for fractional shares, and at or prior to the Dyloject Approval, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Escrow Agent to deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Merger Shares, sufficient shares of Parent Common Stock to satisfy the Merger Consideration due and payable pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(ii), if any, together with sufficient cash to satisfy payments for fractional shares, (such amounts being hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation Fund”). The fees and expenses of the Exchange Agent shall be paid by Parent.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Merger Effective Time, but in no event more than three (3) Business Days following the Merger Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each person who was, as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, a holder of record of the Merger Shares (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall be in customary form and shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Merger Shares shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Merger Shares to the Exchange Agent) and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Merger Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

(c) Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of Merger Shares for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Merger Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (x) (i) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore represented by the Merger Shares so surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i), (ii) if, and only if, Dyloject Approval is obtained, a certificate representing that additional number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(ii), if any, and (y) a check in the amount of any cash for fractional shares of Company Common Stock due pursuant to Section 4.01(c) and any cash owing under Section 4.08. The Merger Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Merger Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices.

(d) In the event of a transfer of ownership of Merger Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of the applicable Merger Shares may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Merger Shares so surrendered is registered if such Merger Shares shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration in respect thereof or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.05, each Merger Share shall be deemed at all times after the Merger Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender or transfer the Merger Consideration, subject to Section 4.08 hereof. No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Merger Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any portion of the Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed five years after the Merger Effective Time (or such earlier date immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority) shall, to the extent permitted by law, become the property of Parent free and clear of any claims

or interest of any person previously entitled thereto. None of Parent, the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Merger Shares for any such shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Any portion of the Surviving Corporation Fund made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 4.05(a) to pay for shares of Company Common Stock for which appraisal rights have been perfected shall be returned to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, upon demand by Parent.

(g) If any Company Common Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Company Common Share Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall pay in respect of Merger Shares to which such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Common Share Certificate relate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled.

(h) At the Merger Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Merger Shares thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Merger Effective Time, the holders of Merger Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, or by applicable Law.

Section 4.06 Withholding Rights. The Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Stock Options or such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Company, the Surviving Corporation, or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock or Company Stock Options in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as applicable.

Section 4.07 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that, notwithstanding Section 7.01(d), the Company changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Merger Effective Time as a result of a stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to shares of the Company Common Stock, at any time during the period from the date hereof to the Merger Effective Time, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted, taking into account the record and payment or effective dates, as the case may be, for such transaction. In the event that, notwithstanding Section 7.02(d), Parent changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding after the date hereof as a result of a stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted, taking into account the record and payment or effective dates, as the case may be, for such transaction.

Section 4.08 Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividend or other distribution declared with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the date during which the Merger Effective Time occurs shall be paid to holders of unsurrendered Merger Shares or holders who comply with the provisions of Section 4.05(g) (with regard to lost certificates) until such holders surrender such Merger Shares or submit an affidavit in accordance with Section 4.05(g). Upon the surrender of such Merger Shares or submission of an affidavit in accordance with Section 4.05, there shall be paid to such holders, promptly after such surrender or submission, as the case may be, the amount of dividends or other distributions, without interest, declared with a record date after the date during which the Merger Effective Time occurs and not paid because of the failure to surrender such Merger Shares for exchange.

Section 4.09 Escrow Arrangement. Immediately following the Merger Effective Time, Parent shall deposit a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the maximum number of shares that could be issued pursuant to the Milestone Shares set forth in Section 4.01(b)(ii) with American Stock Transfer and Trust Company (the “Escrow Agent”) to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and of the escrow agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Escrow Agreement”).

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

The disclosure in any section or subsection of the disclosure schedule provided by the Company to Parent on the date hereof (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”) shall qualify other sections and subsections in this Article V only to the extent that disclosure in one subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule is specifically referred to in another subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule by appropriate cross-reference or except to the extent that the relevance of a disclosure in one subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule to another subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule is reasonably apparent. Except as set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule or as disclosed in any Company SEC Report filed or furnished since January 1, 2009 and only as and to the extent disclosed therein (other than disclosures in the “Risk Factors” sections of any such reports or other cautionary or forward-looking disclosure contained therein), the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer Parties as follows:

Except for this Agreement and except as listed on Section 5.21(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, none of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any Contract: (i) that would be required to be filed by the Company as a “material contract” pursuant to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act; (ii) containing covenants binding upon the Company or the Company Subsidiaries that materially restrict the ability of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (or which, following the consummation of the Merger, would materially restrict the ability of the Surviving Corporation) to compete in any business or geographic area that is material to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as of the date hereof, except for any such Contract that may be canceled without penalty by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries upon notice of sixty

(60) days or less; or (iii) that would prevent, materially delay or materially impede the Company’s ability to consummate the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each such Contract described in clauses (i) through (iii) is referred to herein as a “Company Material Contract.”

(b) Each of the Company Material Contracts is valid and binding on the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as the case may be, and, to the knowledge of the Company, each other party thereto and is in full force and effect, except for such failures to be valid and binding or to be in full force and effect as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no default under any Company Material Contract by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries and no event has occurred that with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a default thereunder by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, in each case except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.04 Power and Authority. Each of the Buyer Parties has all necessary corporate or other power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Note Documents, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and, subject to any required approval of the stockholders of Parent, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder. Except for the approvals described in the following sentence, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Note Documents by each of the Buyer Parties and the consummation by the Buyer Parties of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on behalf of such Buyer Parties. No other corporate proceedings on the part of the Buyer Parties are necessary to authorize this Agreement or the Note Documents or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder other than the approval of the issuance of the Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement by a majority of the votes cast by Parent Stockholders on a proposal to approve the issuance of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) (the “Parent Stockholder Approval”). Each of this Agreement and each of the Note Documents has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Buyer Parties and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Buyer Parties enforceable against

each of the Buyer Parties in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles.

(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Note Documents by each of the Buyer Parties does not, and the performance of each of the Buyer Parties’ obligations hereunder and thereunder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with, or notification to, any Governmental Authority, except (i) for (A) applicable requirements, if any, of the Exchange Act, (B) the pre-merger notification requirements of the HSR Act, (C) compliance with the Antitrust Laws in the jurisdictions listed in Section 5.05(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and (D) any filings required under the rules and regulations of NASDAQ, (E) the filing of the Certificate of Merger pursuant to the DGCL, (F) the filing of customary applications and notices with the FDA, EMEA and MHRA, and (G) any registration, filing or notification required pursuant to state securities or blue sky laws and (ii) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.06 Permits; Parent Products.

(a) Parent is in possession of all Permits, including without limitation all such Permits required by the FDA, necessary for it to own, lease and operate its properties or to carry on their business as it is now being conducted. All such Permits are valid and in full force and effect, Parent has satisfied all of the material requirements of and fulfilled and performed all of its material obligations with respect to such Permits, and, to Parent’s knowledge, no event has occurred that allows, or after notice or lapse of time would allow, revocation or termination thereof or results in any other impairment of the rights of the holder of any such Permits, except for any of the foregoing that would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Parent is not the subject of any administrative, civil or criminal action or, to Parent’s knowledge, investigation alleging violations of any Law of any health care program funded by any Governmental Authority nor are there any reasonable grounds to anticipate the commencement of any such action or investigation. Neither Parent nor any Parent Product is currently subject to any outstanding investigation or audit (except for routine periodic audits conducted pursuant to regulatory or contractual requirements in the ordinary course of business) by any Governmental Authority involving alleged noncompliance with any Law of any health care program funded by any Governmental Authority and, to the knowledge of Parent, there are no grounds to reasonably anticipate any such investigation or audit in the foreseeable future.

(c) Neither Parent, nor to the knowledge of Parent, any agent, representative or contractor of Parent, has knowingly or willfully solicited, received, paid or offered to pay any remuneration, directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or kind in return for the purchasing or ordering of, or recommending the purchasing or ordering of, any Parent Product in violation of any applicable anti-kickback law, including without limitation the Anti-Kickback Statute, or any applicable state anti-kickback law.

None of Parent and nor any of its Subsidiaries is in breach or default of any of its Contracts that are material to Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and has not received written notice or claims of such a breach or default, nor, to the knowledge of Parent, is any other party to any such contracts in breach or default thereunder, except in each case in such a manner as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. Each Contract to which Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound, which is material to Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that has not expired or terminated by its terms is valid and in full force and effect, binding upon Parent or such Subsidiary in accordance with its terms, and, to the knowledge of Parent, binding upon the other parties thereto in accordance with its terms, except where such failure to be valid and binding or to be in full force and effect as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. There is no default under any such Contract by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and no event has occurred that with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a default thereunder by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.08 SEC Filings; Financial Statements; Undisclosed Liabilities.

(a) Parent has timely filed all forms, documents, statements and reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act prior to the date hereof by it with the SEC since December 31, 2007 (the forms, documents, statements and reports filed with the SEC since December 31, 2007, including any amendments thereto, the “Parent SEC Reports”). As of their respective dates, or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing, as of the date of the last such amendment or superseding filing prior to the date hereof, the Parent SEC Reports complied, and each of the Parent SEC Reports filed subsequent to the date of this Agreement will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as the case may be, and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. As of the time of filing with the SEC, none of the Parent SEC Reports so filed or that will be filed subsequent to the date of this Agreement contained or will contain, as the case may be, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except to the extent that the information in such Parent SEC Report has been amended or superseded by a later Parent SEC Report filed prior to the date hereof.

(b) Each of the consolidated financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) contained in the Parent SEC Reports, each as amended prior to the date hereof, was prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and each fairly presented, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the respective dates thereof and for the respective periods indicated therein except as otherwise noted therein (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal and recurring adjustments).

(c) Parent and its Subsidiaries do not have any liabilities or obligations (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) of a nature required to be set forth in Parent’s balance sheet under GAAP or the notes thereto, other than liabilities or obligations (a) reflected on, reserved against in or disclosed in the

notes to, Parent’s consolidated balance sheets included in the Parent SEC Reports, (b) that have been discharged or paid in full prior to the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business, or (c) incurred in the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2008.

Section 6.14 Taxes.

(a) Parent has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax Returns required to be filed by applicable Law with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their income, properties or operations; and has paid all Taxes shown thereon as owing except where the failure to file Tax Returns or to pay Taxes would not have, or would not reasonably be expected to result in, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.03 No Solicitation of Transactions by the Company.

(a) At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof and the Merger Effective Time, none of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall, nor shall it authorize any officer, trustee, director, employee, investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, broker, finder or other agent, representative or affiliate of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to, (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of furnishing nonpublic information or access to properties or assets) any Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish any nonpublic information regarding the Company or any Company Subsidiary to any Person in connection with or in response to a Company Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry or indication of interest that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal (which shall include any Company Acquisition Proposal received prior to the date hereof), (iii) enter into discussions or negotiate with any Person in furtherance of a Company Acquisition Proposal, (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than as expressly permitted by Section 8.03(b)), or (v) enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement or any other contract relating to any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.03(a) or as expressly permitted by Section 8.03(b)), with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time, following the receipt after the date of this Agreement by the Company or any Company Subsidiary of a Company Acquisition Proposal (that was not solicited in violation of this Section 8.03(a)) that the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s legal and financial advisors is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Company Superior Proposal and if, after consultation with the Company’s legal advisor, the Company Board determines in good faith that the failure to take the action specified in clause (x) or (y) below, as applicable, would be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable

Law, the Company Board may (directly or through advisors or representatives), subject to Section 8.03(c), (x) engage in negotiations or discussions with such Person who made such Company Acquisition Proposal and its advisors; and/or (y) furnish non-public information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the Person who made such Company Acquisition Proposal pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with terms overall no less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement; provided that all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made or had been previously made available to Parent) is provided to Parent prior to or substantially concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such Person.

(b) The Company Board shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) (A) fail to make, withdraw, or amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose to withdraw, or amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation or the approval of the Company Board of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or (B) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve, any Company Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or allow the Company or any Company Subsidiary to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement (A) constituting or that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal or (B) requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Company Board may make an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to (x) a Company Superior Proposal or (y) an event, development or change in circumstance that occurs, arises or becomes known to the Company Board following the date of this Agreement, in each case if the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s legal advisor that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law; provided, however, that no such Adverse Recommendation Change may be made until five (5) calendar days following Parent’s receipt of written notice (a “Company Notice of Adverse Recommendation”) from the Company advising Parent that the Company Board intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor, including the terms and conditions of any Company Superior Proposal that is the basis of the proposed action by the Company Board (it being understood and agreed that (x) any amendment to any material term of such Company Superior Proposal or (y) with respect to any previous Adverse Recommendation Change, any material change in the principal stated rationale by the Company Board for such previous Adverse Recommendation Change, shall, in the case of either (x) or (y), require a new Company Notice of Adverse Recommendation and a new three (3) calendar day period); provided however, that if the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is scheduled to be held in the five calendar day period or the three calendar day period referred to above, then, in each case, such five calendar day period or three calendar day period referred to above shall be shortened to such number of days to allow the Adverse Recommendation Change to be made at least 24 hours prior to the Company Stockholders’ Meeting. In determining whether to make an Adverse Recommendation Change, the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to a Company Notice of Adverse Recommendation or otherwise.

(c) The Company shall promptly (and in all cases within two (2) Business Days) advise Parent in writing of any Company Acquisition Proposal, the terms and conditions of any such Company Acquisition Proposal and the identity of the Person making any such Company Acquisition Proposal and of any discussions or negotiations sought to be entered into or requests for information or access to properties or assets made or requested by such Person with the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, brokers, finders or other agents or representatives. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status (including any material change to the terms and conditions thereof) of any such Company Acquisition Proposal and shall promptly (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt) provide to Parent copies of all correspondence and written materials sent or provided to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that describe the material terms and conditions of any Company Acquisition Proposal. The

Company Board shall not take any of the actions referred to in the last sentence of Section 8.03(a) unless the Company shall have delivered to Parent a prior written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action.

(d) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing soliciting activities, discussions or negotiations and non-public information access, if any, with or to any Person conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall promptly request that each Person, if any, in possession of the confidential information about the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries that was furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in connection with its consideration of any potential Company Acquisition Proposal to return or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person.

(e) Nothing in this Section 8.03 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prevent the Company Board from disclosing any information required to be disclosed under applicable Law or from disclosing any information in compliance with Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal, including, but not limited to, a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act. In addition, nothing in this Section 8.03 or this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from taking any action that any court of competent jurisdiction orders the Company to take.

Section 8.04 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) From and after the Merger Effective Time, Parent shall honor and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor, in accordance with their terms as in effect at the Merger Effective Time, all Company Plans, compensation arrangements and agreements, and employment, severance and termination plans and agreements that are not required to be terminated hereby or otherwise terminated prior to or at the Merger Effective Time. Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to assume responsibility for offering health care continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 to any “M&A qualified beneficiary” (with the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 54.4980B-9) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 54.4980B-9.

(b) The Company shall terminate or cause to be terminated each Company Plan that is a profit sharing plan or with a cash or deferred arrangement subject to Section 401(k) (or 401(m)) of the Code a day immediately prior to the date of the Merger Effective Time. At the written direction of Parent, which shall be given in accordance with this Agreement no less than five (5) business days prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Company shall terminate or cause to be terminated each other Company Plan immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time. The Company shall take all such actions necessary to carry out the foregoing including, without limitation, the adoption of resolutions, the adoption of amendments and notification of any carriers or vendors.

If the Company shall have not paid the 2009 Bonus Payments prior to the Merger Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to pay the 2009 Bonus Payments upon the Merger Effective Time.

(d) Prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Company Board, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, shall adopt a resolution consistent with the interpretive guidance of the SEC so that the disposition by any officer or director of the Company who is a covered person of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (“Section 16”) of

shares of Company Common Stock or Company Stock Options to acquire shares of Company Common Stock (or shares of Company Common Stock acquired upon the vesting of any Company Stock Awards) pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger shall be an exempt transaction for purposes of Section 16.

Section 8.05 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Merger Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Merger Effective Time, now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees, as the case may be, of the Company or its Subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws or other organization documents or in any agreement shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect any and all exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s and any of its Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and by-laws or similar organization documents in effect immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time or in any indemnification agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with any of their respective current or former directors, officers or employees in effect as of the date hereof, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Merger Effective Time were current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim.

(b) From and after the Merger Effective Time, each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and advance funds in respect of each of the foregoing) each current and former director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, together with such person’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”) against any costs or expenses (including advancing reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Law), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened Action, arising out of, relating to or in connection with any action or omission occurring or alleged to have occurred whether before or after the Merger Effective Time (including acts or omissions in connection with such persons serving as an officer, director or other fiduciary in any entity if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company).

(c) Parent shall negotiate (with the assistance of the Company or its representative) and purchase “tail” insurance coverage from the Company’s existing directors and officers liability and fiduciary liability insurers, or from other insurers of commensurate or better financial strength, that provides for a period of six (6) years that is no less favorable in both amount and terms and conditions of coverage than the Company’s existing directors and officers liability and fiduciary insurance programs, or if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is not available, the best available coverage (“D&O and Fiduciary Insurance”); provided however that the aggregate cost for the purchase of such tail coverage (for the entire six (6) year tail coverage period) shall not exceed more than 250% of the aggregate annual premium paid by the Company for the existing directors and officers liability and fiduciary liability insurance program for the most recent fiscal year, provided, further, that should the cost of D&O and Fiduciary Insurance exceed the 250% cap, Parent shall instead purchase the best available coverage for 250% of the aggregate premium paid by the Company for the existing directors and officers liability and fiduciary liability insurance program.

(d) The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Indemnified Party may have under the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws or other similar organization documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation, any other indemnification agreement or arrangement, the DGCL or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 8.05 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that may be to the contrary, expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties.

(e) In the event Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 8.05. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.05 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions, to file, or cause to be filed, all documents and to do, or to cause to be done, and to assist and to cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances, approvals, and expirations or terminations of waiting periods from Governmental Authorities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval, clearance, or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Authority, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iii) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, instruments effectuating the assignment or assumption of Contracts to or by Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be required to pay prior to the Merger Effective Time any fee, penalties or other consideration to any third party to obtain any consent or approval required for the consummation of the Merger under any Contract.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided and without limiting the foregoing, the Company and Parent shall (i) promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, make all filings and submissions required under the HSR Act with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and use reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in (x) determining whether any filings are required to be made with, or consents, permits, authorizations, waivers, clearances, approvals, and expirations or terminations of waiting periods are required to be obtained from, any third parties or other Governmental Authorities in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and (y) timely making all such filings and timely obtaining all such consents, permits, authorizations or approvals, (iii) supply to any Governmental Authorities as promptly as practicable any additional information or documentary material that may be requested pursuant to any Regulatory Law or by such Governmental Authority, and (iv) use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including taking all such further action as may be necessary to resolve such objections, if any, as the United States Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice, state antitrust enforcement authorities or competition authorities of any other nation or other jurisdiction or any other person may assert under any Regulatory Law with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date), including, without limitation (x) proposing, negotiating, committing to

and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of any assets or businesses of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or of the Company or its Subsidiaries and (y) otherwise taking or committing to take any actions that after the Closing would limit the freedom of Parent or its Subsidiaries’ (including the Surviving Corporation’s) or Affiliates’ freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of its or its Subsidiaries’ (including the Surviving Corporation’s) or Affiliates’ businesses, product lines or assets, in each case as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing, materially delaying the Closing or delaying the Closing beyond the Outside Date; provided that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall become subject to, or consent or agree to or otherwise take any action with respect to, any requirement, condition, understanding, agreement or order of a Governmental Authority to sell, to hold separate or otherwise dispose of, or to conduct, restrict, operate, invest or otherwise change the assets or business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, unless such requirement, condition, understanding, agreement or order is binding on the Company only in the event that the Closing occurs.

(c) Subject to applicable legal limitations and the instructions of any Governmental Authority, the Company and Parent shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other communications received by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, from any third party and/or any Governmental Authority with respect to such Merger or transactions. The Company and Parent shall permit counsel for the other party reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other party in connection with, any proposed written communication to any Governmental Authority.

The Stockholder Representative shall not be responsible for any loss suffered by, or liability of any kind to, the Company Stockholders arising out of any act done or omitted by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Stockholder Representative’s duties hereunder, unless such act or omission involves gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholder Representative will not be liable to any Company Stockholder for any action taken by it in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company Stockholders will jointly and severally indemnify the Stockholder Representative from any losses arising out of its serving as the Stockholder Representative hereunder. The Stockholder Representative is serving in that capacity solely for purposes of administrative convenience, and is not personally liable in such capacity for any of the obligations of the Company Stockholders hereunder.

Section 11.03 Resignation. The Stockholder Representative may resign by providing thirty (30) days prior written notice to Parent. Upon the resignation of the Stockholder Representative, the Stockholder Representative shall appoint a replacement Stockholder Representative to serve in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that such appointment shall be subject to such newly-appointed Stockholder Representative’s notifying Parent in writing of its appointment and appropriate contact information for purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and Parent shall be entitled to rely upon, without independent investigation, the identity of such newly-appointed Stockholder Representative as set forth in such written notice.

Section 11.04 Survival. The provisions of this Article XI and Section 4.01(b) and (c), Section 4.05, Section 4.06, Section 4.07, Section 4.08 and Section 4.09 hereof shall survive the Merger Effective Time and consummation of the Merger.

All such notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications shall be deemed received on the date of receipt by the recipient thereof if received prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Business Day in the place of receipt. Otherwise, any such notice, request, claim, demand or other communication shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt.

Section 12.03 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy or the application of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is invalid or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. To such end, the provisions of this Agreement are agreed to be severable. 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 in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 12.04 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto by action taken by their respective board of directors (or similar governing body or entity) at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time; provided, however, that, after approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders, no amendment may be

made without further stockholder approval which, by Law or in accordance with the rules of the Amex, requires further approval by such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

Section 12.05 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Parent Disclosure Schedule and the Company Disclosure Schedule, constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise); provided that Parent and Merger Sub may assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, to any Subsidiary of Parent without obtaining the consent of the Company and any such assignment shall not relieve Parent or Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 12.05 shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect.

Section 12.06 Performance Guaranty Specific Performance. Subject to Section 10.03(g), the parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement, and accordingly, the parties hereto shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity.

Section 12.07 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than (a) the provisions of Section 8.05 (which are intended to be for the benefit of the persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such persons); (b) the provisions of Section 8.13 (which are intended to be for the benefit of, and may be enforced by, the Financial Advisor); and (c) the right of the holders of equity interests of the Company to receive the Merger Consideration.

Section 12.08 Governing Law; Forum.

(a) All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its rules of conflict of laws.

(b) Except as set out below, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of any court of the State of Delaware or of the United States located in New Castle County, Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”) for any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Delaware Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Delaware Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any Delaware Court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 12.02 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

Section 12.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented,

expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other party hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 12.09.

Section 12.10 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 12.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in two or more 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.

Section 12.12 Waiver. Except as provided in this Agreement, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision hereunder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereunder.

[REMAINDER LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized.
