1.5Surviving Corporation Governance and Additional Matters.

(a)The Articles of Organization of the Surviving Corporation.

2.1Merger Consideration; Conversion of Shares of Company Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of any Company Capital Stock, each share of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than Excluded Shares (such shares of Company Capital Stock, the “Eligible Shares”) shall automatically be converted into the right to receive $277.00 per share in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all Treasury Shares and Parent Owned Shares shall, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of such Treasury Shares and Parent Owned Shares, be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made in respect of such shares. At the Effective Time, all Subsidiary Shares shall be converted into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of capital stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, such that each such direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent or the Company that owned Company Capital Stock in the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall own the same percentage of the outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, and no other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange for such Subsidiary Shares and any such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation shall remain outstanding.

2.2Conversion of Shares of Company Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any holder of any Company Capital Stock, all of the Eligible Shares shall represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article II, shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate formerly representing any of the Eligible Shares (each, a “Certificate”) and each book-entry account formerly representing any

non-certificated Eligible Shares (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

2.3Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of capital stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

2.4Treatment of Equity Awards. This Section 2.4 shall govern the treatment of the Company’s equity awards in connection with the Transactions.

(a)RSUs. At the Effective Time, each deferred stock unit or time vesting restricted stock unit granted under the Company Stock Plan (each, a “Company RSU”) (other than a Post-Signing Company RSU) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall become fully vested and shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive (without interest), an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Company Capital Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Merger Consideration, in each case, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment.

(b)Post-Signing RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that was granted on or after the date of this Agreement, excluding any such Company RSU that was granted to a non-employee director of the Company (each, a “Post-Signing Company RSU”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof into a restricted stock unit in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock with the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such Post-Signing Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Parent RSU”), except that such Parent RSU shall relate to that whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of Company Capital Stock subject to such Post-Signing Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Equity Exchange Ratio.

(c)Company PSUs. At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit granted under the Company Stock Plan and subject to performance-based vesting criteria (each, a “Company PSU”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall become fully vested and shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and be converted into the right to receive (without interest) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Merger Consideration and (ii) the number of shares of Company Capital Stock subject to such Company PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time based on one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the target level of performance achievement, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment.

(d)ESPP. Any offering period in which the Effective Time would otherwise occur under the employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Code that is sponsored by the Company (the “ESPP”) shall end as of a date selected by the Company before the

Effective Time and each outstanding right to purchase shares of common stock of the Company granted under such plan shall be automatically exercised as of such date; provided, however, that no new offering period shall commence under the ESPP on or after the date of this Agreement.

(e)Company Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board (and the Company Compensation Committee), as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to effectuate the treatment of Company RSUs and Company PSUs (collectively, the “Company Equity Awards”) and the ESPP pursuant to Section 2.4(a), Section 2.4(b), Section 2.4(c), and Section 2.4(d).

(f)Future Grants of Equity Awards. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.4 to the contrary, but subject to Section 6.1(a), to the extent the terms of any Company Equity Award (i) granted on or after the date of this Agreement and not in violation of this Agreement or (ii) mutually agreed by the Parties and a holder of any Company Equity Award expressly provide for treatment in connection with the occurrence of the Effective Time that is different from the treatment prescribed by this Section 2.4, then in each case of clause (i) and (ii), the terms of such Company Equity Award, as applicable or so agreed by the Parties and such holder, shall control (and the applicable provisions of this Section 2.4 shall not apply).

(g)Payments. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but no later than the first payroll period after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall pay the amounts provided for in Section 2.4(a) and Section 2.4(c), to the former holders of Company Equity Awards (other than Post-Signing Company RSUs), with such payments to be made through, to the extent applicable, the Surviving Corporation’s payroll. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent a payment pursuant to this Section 2.4 would trigger an additional Tax under Section 409A of the Code or a penalty under an applicable non-U.S. Law, such payment shall be made on the earliest date that payment would not trigger such Tax or penalty.

(h)Parent Actions. With respect to the converted Post-Signing Company RSUs, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-8 (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as the converted Post-Signing Company RSUs remain outstanding.

3.1Exchange Agent. Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, with an exchange agent selected by Parent with the Company’s prior approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to serve as the exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Eligible Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time and on the Closing Date, an aggregate amount of cash in U.S. Dollars sufficient to deliver the amounts required to be delivered in respect of Eligible Shares pursuant to Section 2.1 (being the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than a purpose expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund may be deposited or invested by the Exchange Agent

as reasonably directed by Parent in obligations of or fully guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States with a maturity of no more than thirty (30) days, or in commercial paper obligations rated A-l or P-l or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers’ acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $5 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) or in funds or investment vehicles containing only such obligations and cash; provided that no such deposit or investment (or any loss resulting therefrom) shall affect the amount of cash payable to former holders of Company Capital Stock pursuant to the provisions of this Article III. To the extent that (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund; or (B) the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Exchange Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by this Agreement, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Exchange Agent to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement. Any interest and other income resulting from such deposit may become part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be promptly returned to Parent.

3.2Procedures for Surrender.

(a)With respect to Certificates, as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in any event within three (3) Business Days) after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of each such Certificate (i) a notice advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger, (ii) a letter of transmittal in customary form specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to a Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 3.5) to the Exchange Agent or transfer of Book-Entry Shares not held through DTC (each, a “Non-DTC Book-Entry Share”) to the Exchange Agent (including customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” with respect to Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares) (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (iii) instructions for surrendering a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 3.5) to the Exchange Agent. Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Certificate as provided in Section 3.5) together with a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive as promptly as practicable in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 3.7) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1. Any Certificate that has been so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Exchange Agent.

(b)With respect to Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in any event within three (3) Business Days) after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Non-DTC Book-Entry Share (i) a notice advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger, (ii) a Letter of Transmittal and (iii) instructions for transferring the Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent. Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares by

book-receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and accompanying instructions, Parent or Merger Sub shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, a cash amount in immediately available funds (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 3.7) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1.

(c)With respect to Book-Entry Shares held through DTC, the Company and Parent shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Exchange Agent and DTC to ensure that the Exchange Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, upon surrender of Eligible Shares held of record by DTC or its nominees in accordance with DTC’s customary surrender procedures, the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1.

(d)No profit, interest or income will be paid or accrued for the benefit of any holder of Eligible Shares on any amount payable upon the surrender of any Eligible Shares.

3.3No Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Company Capital Stock except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

3.4Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any deposit of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed as of the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent. Any holder of Eligible Shares who has not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Article III.

3.5Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be required as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration payable or issuable pursuant to this Article III, as if such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate had been surrendered.

3.6Appraisal Rights.

(a)Shares of Company Capital Stock (other than Excluded Shares) that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by holders who have not voted such shares in favor of this Agreement and who are entitled to appraisal rights and have properly exercised such rights in accordance with Part 13 of the MBCA (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration

pursuant to Section 2.2, and the holders thereof shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by, and shall be entitled only to receive such payments for such Dissenting Shares in accordance with, Part 13 of the MBCA; provided, however, that if any such shareholder of the Company shall fail to perfect or shall effectively waive, withdraw or lose such shareholder’s rights under Part 13 of the MBCA or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise determine that such shareholder is not entitled to the relief provided by Part 13 of the MBCA, such shareholder’s shares of Company Capital Stock shall thereupon cease to be Dissenting Shares (including for purposes of Section 2.2), and shall be deemed to have been converted, at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (payable without any interest thereon) upon surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares formerly representing such shares of Company Capital Stock and related documents, as compensation for such cancellation. At the Effective Time, the Dissenting Shares shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist and any holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights provided in Part 13 of the MBCA and as provided in the previous sentence.

(b)The Company shall give Parent (A) prompt written notice of any notice received by the Company of intent to demand appraisal or the fair value of any shares of Company Capital Stock, withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments or notices served pursuant to the MBCA and (B) if taking place prior to the Effective Time, the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such notices and demands and the exercise of appraisal rights under the MBCA. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, (x) make any payment or other commitment with respect to any such exercise of appraisal rights, (y) offer to settle or settle any such rights or (z) waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or timely take any other action to perfect appraisal rights in accordance with the MBCA.

3.7Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent and any other withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock and Company Equity Awards, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or such other withholding agent, as applicable, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Capital Stock and Company Equity Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or such other withholding agent, as applicable. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or any other withholding agent, as applicable, shall timely remit any amounts of Tax so deducted and withheld to the applicable Governmental Entity.

3.8Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the Effective Time and termination in accordance with Article VIII, the issued and outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or securities or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split),

stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend with a record date within such period shall have been declared, then the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event, and such items, so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration. Nothing in this Section 3.8 shall be construed to permit the Parties to take any action except to the extent consistent with, and not otherwise prohibited by, the terms of this Agreement.

3.9Transfers of Ownership. If a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Capital Stock is not registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, or if the Merger Consideration is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates surrendered or transferred in exchange thereof are registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered or transferred is registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company only if such Certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer and the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable. Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares will only be made to the Person in whose name such Non-DTC Book-Entry Shares are registered.

3.10No Liability. None of the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to two (2) years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any cash that a holder of any Eligible Shares has the right to receive pursuant to this Article III in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity, any such cash in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

5.5Financing.

(a)On or prior to the date hereof, Parent has delivered to the Company a true, complete and correct copy of (x) the executed commitment letter, together with all attachments thereto, from the Financing Entities party thereto, dated as of the date hereof (the “Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which the Financing Entities party thereto have committed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to provide debt financing (the “Financing”) to the Parent in the amounts described therein for the purposes of funding the transactions contemplated hereby and the related fees and expenses and (y) any fee letters, redacted to remove fee amounts and customary “flex” terms, none of which redacted provisions could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability or availability, or reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Financing (collectively, the “Fee Letter” and together with the Commitment Letter, collectively, the “Commitment Papers”). As of the date hereof, the Commitment Papers are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn or terminated or otherwise amended, supplemented or modified in any respect.

(b)As of the date hereof, the Commitment Papers, in the form so delivered, are a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. As of the date hereof, there is no agreement, side letter or arrangement relating to the Financing that could (x) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing to be provided on the Closing Date to an amount that is less than the amount necessary, when combined with Parent’s other sources of available funds, to pay the Merger Consideration on the Closing Date or (y) increase the conditionality of the availability of such Financing, other than those set forth in the Commitment Papers. The Commitment Letter contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Financing Entities party thereunder to make the Financing available to the Parent on the terms therein.

Assuming satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.2(a), 7.2(b) and 7.2(d), as of the date hereof, Parent has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy, on a timely basis, any term or condition to Closing to be satisfied by it with respect to the Commitment Letter or that the full amount of the Financing will not be available as of the Closing. As of the date hereof, Parent has fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Commitment Papers on or before the date hereof.

(c)Parent will have as of the Closing Date sufficient available funds to satisfy all of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s payment obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of the Merger Consideration, any Indebtedness required to be repaid, redeemed, retired, cancelled, terminated or otherwise satisfied or discharged in connection with the consummation of the Merger and any premiums and fees incurred in connection therewith and fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Payment Obligations”).

5.8Brokers and Finders. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub has employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions or finder’s fees for which the Company could be responsible in connection with the Transactions.

5.9No Other Representations or Warranties; Non-Reliance. Except for the representations and warranties made by Parent and Merger Sub in this Article V and in any certificate delivered by Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to Article VII, neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any other Person makes any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Parent or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities, conditions (financial or otherwise) or prospects in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions, and Parent and Merger Sub expressly disclaim any such other representations or warranties. Parent and Merger Sub expressly disclaim reliance upon any representations, warranties or statements relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly given by the Company in Article IV and in any certificate delivered by Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to Article VII.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no consent of Parent or Merger Sub shall be required with respect to any matter set forth in this Section 6.1 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the extent that the requirement of such consent would, upon the advice of the Company’s outside antitrust legal counsel, violate applicable Antitrust Law. Nothing in this Agreement, including any of the actions, rights or restrictions set forth herein, will be interpreted in such a way as to require compliance by any Party if such compliance would result in the violation of any rule, regulation or policy of any applicable Law.

6.2Acquisition Proposals; Change of Recommendation.

(a)No Solicitation. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.2, the Company shall not, none of its Subsidiaries shall, and the Company shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers and employees not to, and shall not authorize any of its or their respective other Representatives, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly:

(i)initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or knowingly take any action designed to facilitate any an Acquisition Proposal, or the making of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal;

(ii)engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions with or negotiations relating to any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal (other than to state that the terms of this provision prohibit such discussions or negotiations);

(iii)provide any nonpublic information relating to, or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of, the Company or any of its

Subsidiaries to any Person in connection with any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal;

(iv)otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal;

(v)take any action to make the provisions of any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination” or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation, or any restrictive provision of any applicable anti-takeover provision in the Company’s Organizational Documents, inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal; or

(vi)resolve, agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing.

(b)Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.2(a) to the contrary, prior to the time, but not after, the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, in response to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal received after the date of this Agreement (that did not arise from or in connection with a breach of the obligations set forth in Section 6.2), the Company may:

(i)provide information in response to a request therefor (including nonpublic information regarding it or any of its Subsidiaries) to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives and financing sources, provided that (A) such information has previously been made available to, or is made available to, Parent prior to or substantially concurrently with the time such information is made available to such Person (but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after the provision of such information), except to the extent making such information available to Parent would violate applicable Law and (B) prior to furnishing any such information, the Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality agreement containing terms that are at least as restrictive in the aggregate on the other party as the terms in the Confidentiality Agreement are on Parent (provided that such confidentiality agreement need not include any “standstill” terms if and to the extent that Parent is, concurrently with entry by the Company or its Subsidiaries into such confidentiality agreement, released from any standstill (or similar obligation) in the Confidentiality Agreement), and which confidentiality agreement does not prohibit compliance with this Agreement; and

(ii)participate in any discussions or negotiations with, and only with, such Person and its Representatives and financing sources regarding such bona fide written Acquisition Proposal;

in each case, if, and only if, prior to taking any action described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor that, based on the information then available, such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal.

(c)Representatives. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that its Representatives are aware of the provisions of this Section 6.2.

(d)Notice of Acquisition Proposals. The Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) give notice to Parent if, after the date of this Agreement, any Acquisition Proposal or any request for information or inquiry that contemplates or that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal is received by it or any of its Representatives, setting forth in such notice the name of such Person and the material terms and conditions thereof and thereafter shall (i) keep Parent reasonably informed of the status and material terms of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (including any amendments thereto), and discussions or negotiations concerning the material terms thereof and (ii) as promptly as practicable (and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours following the receipt or delivery thereof), provide Parent with unredacted copies of any written proposal, proposed transaction agreement or other written material that describes the terms and conditions of any Acquisition Proposal.

(e)No Change of Recommendation.

(i)Except as permitted by Section 6.2(e)(ii), Section 6.2(e)(iii) or Section 6.2(f), the Company Board, including any committee thereof, agrees it shall not:

(A)withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify) the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub;

(B)following the date any Acquisition Proposal or any material modification thereto is first made public or sent or given to shareholders of the Company, fail to issue a press release publicly reaffirming the Company Recommendation within ten (10) Business Days (or, if earlier, prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting) following Parent’s written request to do so (which request may only be made once with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, except that Parent may make an additional request after any material change in the terms of such Acquisition Proposal);

(C)fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement or make or expressly authorize by resolution the making of any public statement (oral or written) by any Company director or officer that is known to, or reasonably foreseeable by, the Company Board to have the same consequences as a withdrawal, qualification, amendment or modification of the Company Recommendation;

(D)fail to recommend against acceptance of a tender or exchange offer by its shareholders pursuant to Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act for outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock (other than by Parent or an Affiliate of Parent), in each case, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a written request of Parent following the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer (or, if earlier, prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting) (for the avoidance of doubt, the taking of no position or a neutral position by the

Company Board in respect of the acceptance of any such tender offer or exchange offer as of the end of such period shall constitute a failure to recommend against acceptance of any such offer);

(E)approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable or publicly propose to approve or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or publicly propose to enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement or other agreement (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.2(b) entered into in compliance with Section 6.2(b)) (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) relating to any Acquisition Proposal (any of the actions set forth in the foregoing clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and this clause (E), a “Change of Recommendation”),

(F)cause or permit the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement constituting or related to, or which is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the time, but not after, the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, if a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal received after the date of this Agreement that did not arise from or in connection with a material breach of the obligations set forth in Section 6.2(a) is received by the Company and is not withdrawn, and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company Board may (x) effect a Change of Recommendation or (y) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.4(b), in order to enter into a definitive written agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that, prior to taking such action described in clauses (x) or (y) above, the Company has given Parent written notice of such action and the basis therefor four (4) Business Days in advance, which notice shall set forth in writing that the Company Board intends to consider whether to take such action (such notice, the “Board Recommendation Notice”) and include a copy of the most current version of the proposed agreement under which transaction contemplated by such Superior Proposal is proposed to be consummated. After giving such Board Recommendation Notice and prior to taking any action described in clauses (x) or (y) above, the Company shall negotiate in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate), to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would cause such Acquisition Proposal to cease to be a Superior Proposal. At the end of the four (4) Business Day period, prior to and as a condition to taking any action described in clauses (x) or (y) above, the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by Parent and any other proposals offered in writing by Parent in response to the Board Recommendation Notice, and shall have determined in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor that in the case of such Acquisition Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal, if such changes offered in writing by Parent were to be given effect. Any amendment to the financial terms and any other material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal

for purposes of Section 6.2(d) and this Section 6.2(e)(ii) and require a new Board Recommendation Notice, except that references in this Section 6.2(e)(ii) to “four (4) Business Days” shall be deemed to be references to “two (2) Business Days” and such two (2) Business Day period shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following the day on which such new Board Recommendation Notice is delivered (it being understood and agreed that in no event shall any such additional two (2) Business Day period be deemed to shorten the initial four (4) Business Day period).

(iii)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the time, but not after, the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, the Company Board may effect a Change of Recommendation (A) if an Intervening Event has occurred and (B) prior to taking such action, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that failure to take such action in response to such Intervening Event would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that prior to making such Change of Recommendation, the Company has given Parent a Board Recommendation Notice four (4) Business Days in advance, which notice shall include a reasonably detailed description of such Intervening Event. After giving such Board Recommendation Notice and prior to effecting a Change of Recommendation, the Company shall negotiate in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate), to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement. At the end of the four (4) Business Day period, prior to and as a condition to effecting a Change of Recommendation, the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by Parent and any other proposals offered in writing by Parent in response to the Board Recommendation Notice, and shall have determined in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor that (I) such Intervening Event remains in effect and (II) the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f)Certain Permitted Disclosure. Nothing contained in this Section 6.2 shall prohibit the Company from (i) complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable United States federal or state Law including with regard to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act pending disclosure of its position thereunder or (iii) contacting any Person or group or their respective Representatives who has made a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that was not solicited in breach of this Section 6.2 solely for the purpose of clarifying the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal; provided that, the foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may not effect a Change of Recommendation except in accordance with Section 6.2(e)(ii) or Section 6.2(e)(iii).

(g)Existing Discussions. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall promptly deliver a written notice to each such Person providing only that the Company is ending all discussions

and negotiations with such Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or proposal or transaction that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall also request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information concerning the Company and any of its Subsidiaries heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company will promptly terminate all physical and electronic data access previously granted to such Persons.

(h)Standstill Provisions. 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 Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality, “standstill” or similar agreement to which the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party and shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including by obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof.

6.3Proxy Statement Filing; Information Supplied.

(a)As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the preliminary proxy statement relating to the Company Shareholders Meeting (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to comments from the SEC and, after the SEC staff advises that it has no further comments thereon or that the Company may commence mailing the Proxy Statement, to promptly thereafter mail the Proxy Statement to the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall promptly notify Parent of the receipt of all comments from the SEC and of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and shall promptly provide to Parent copies of all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives and the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement. The Company shall not file or mail the Proxy Statement, or respond to the SEC, prior to receiving the approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that no such approval of Parent shall be required with respect to any amendment or supplement of the Proxy Statement in connection with a Change of Recommendation. Each of Parent and Merger Sub will promptly furnish to the Company the information relating to it as required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be set forth in the Proxy Statement and provide such other information and assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement.

(b)Each of the Company and Parent agrees, as to itself and its Subsidiaries, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by it or its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto will, at the date of mailing to the shareholders of the Company and at the time of the Company Shareholders Meeting, 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. The Company will cause the Proxy Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions

of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, either Party obtains Knowledge of any information pertaining to it or previously provided by it for inclusion in the Proxy Statement that would require any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement so that any of such documents would not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, such Party shall promptly advise the other Party and the Parties shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and, as required by applicable Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the Company shareholders.

(c)The Company will provide legal counsel to Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on drafts of the Proxy Statement, responses to any comments from the SEC with respect thereto, and other documents related to the Company Shareholders Meeting, prior to filing such documents with the applicable Governmental Entity and mailing such documents to the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall consider in good faith and incorporate, in the Company’s discretion following such good faith consideration, the reasonable comments thereon of Parent and its legal counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 6.3(c) shall not apply with respect to information relating to a Change of Recommendation.

6.4Shareholders Meeting.

(a)The Company will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its Organizational Documents, all action necessary to convene the Company Shareholders Meeting as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than forty five (45) days after (1) the tenth (10th) day after the preliminary Proxy Statement has been filed with the SEC (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) if by such date the SEC has not informed the Company that it intends to review the Proxy Statement or (2) if by such tenth (10th) day the SEC has informed the Company that it intends to review the Proxy Statement, the date on which the SEC confirms in writing that it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement), to consider and vote upon the approval of this Agreement and to cause such vote to be taken, and shall not postpone or adjourn such meeting except (i) to the extent required by Law (after consultation with outside legal counsel) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that the Company has determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law or (ii) if, as of the time for which the Company Shareholders Meeting was originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement), there are insufficient shares of Company Capital Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) and voting to approve this Agreement or to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Shareholders Meeting; provided that in no event will the Company postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting (x) in the case of clause (i), by more than ten (10) Business Days or such other amount of time reasonably agreed by the Company and Parent to be necessary to comply with applicable Law or (y) in the case of clause (ii), by more than ten (10) Business Days in connection with any one postponement, recess or adjournment or more than an aggregate of twenty (20) Business Days from the original date. The Company shall, subject to the right of the Company Board to effect a Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 6.2(e)(ii) or Section 6.2(e)(iii), include the

Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and use reasonable best efforts to solicit from the shareholders of the Company proxies in favor of the proposal to approve this Agreement and to secure the Requisite Company Vote (it being understood that the foregoing shall not require the Company Board to recommend in favor of the approval of this Agreement, if a Change of Recommendation has been effected in accordance with Section 6.2(e)(ii) or Section 6.2(e)(iii)). The Company shall, at the instruction of Parent, postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting if there are not sufficient affirmative votes in person or by proxy at such meeting to approve this Agreement to allow reasonable time for the solicitation of proxies for purposes of obtaining the Requisite Company Vote. The Company will establish a record date for the Company Shareholders Meeting in reasonable consultation with Parent and subject to compliance with the MBCA and Exchange Act. In no event will the record date be changed without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (i) in the event that any supplemental or amended disclosure that the Company has determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law and the Company Shareholders Meeting is postponed pursuant to this Section 6.4(a) or (ii) the Company postpones the Company Shareholders Meeting at the instruction of Parent, and in either case, as a result, the initial record date fixed by the Company Board is more than 70 days before the date of the subsequent meeting.

(b)The Company agrees (i) to provide Parent reasonably detailed periodic updates concerning proxy solicitation results on a timely basis and (ii) to give written notice to Parent one (1) Business Day prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting and on the day of, but prior to the Company Shareholders Meeting, indicating whether as of such date sufficient proxies representing the Requisite Company Vote have been obtained.

(c)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.4(b), the Company agrees that its obligations to hold the Company Shareholders Meeting pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall not be affected by the making of a Change of Recommendation by the Company Board, and its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall not be affected by the commencement of or announcement or disclosure of or communication to the Company, of any Acquisition Proposal (including any Superior Proposal) or the occurrence or disclosure of an Intervening Event.

(d)The only matters to be voted upon at the Company Shareholders Meeting shall be the Requisite Company Vote and routine proposals required in connection with such vote.

6.5Cooperation; Efforts to Consummate.

(a)On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement (including Section 6.2), the Company and Parent shall cooperate with each other and use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to 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, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under this Agreement and applicable Law to cause the conditions to Closing in Article VII to be satisfied as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date) and consummate and make effective the Transactions as soon as reasonably practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as

reasonably practicable and advisable all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and other Filings, obtaining as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date) all actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, registrations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, approvals, permits and authorizations (“Consents”) necessary or advisable to be obtained from any (i) third party or Governmental Entity (in its capacity as a customer) in respect of any Material Contract or (ii) otherwise from any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the Transaction and executing and delivering any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Transactions; provided, however, that, in the case of any Consent under clause (i), the Company shall not be required to (a) make any payment of any fees, expenses, “profit sharing” payments or other consideration (including increased or accelerated payments) or concede anything of monetary or economic value, (b) amend, supplement or otherwise modify any such Material Contract (other than a U.S. Government Contract as required to comply with applicable Law) or (c) otherwise make any accommodation or provide any benefit, in each case, that is not conditioned on the consummation of the Merger.

(b)In furtherance and not in limitation of the undertakings pursuant to Section 6.5(a), each of Parent and the Company shall (A) (i) within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company), prepare and file the notifications required under the HSR Act; and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable after the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than as required by applicable Law, prepare and file any notification and report forms and related material required under any other applicable Antitrust Laws or Foreign Investment Laws (if any) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as set forth on Section 4.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and any additional Filings or notifications and related material that are necessary, proper or advisable to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) provide or cause to be provided as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable any information and documentary material that may be requested by the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) under the HSR Act or by other Governmental Entities under applicable Antitrust Laws or Foreign Investment Laws (if any).

(c)The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to promptly, and in any event no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, identify any additional Filings required in connection with the Transactions under any Antitrust Law or Foreign Investment Law applicable in the jurisdictions listed in Section 6.5(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter and determine whether any such additional Filing is to be included among the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, applying for such purpose the same standards of legal and business significance as were used by the parties in agreeing to the list set forth in Section 4.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter as of the date of this Agreement. To the extent the Parties mutually agree that any such Filings are to be included among the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, such Filings shall be added to Section 4.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter as if the Parties had included them in Section 4.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter as of the date of this Agreement. Each of the Company and Parent shall provide the other Party with all information requested by such Party that is reasonably necessary to identify any such Filings.

(d)Without limiting the generality of the undertakings pursuant to this Section 6.5, but on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, including

Section 6.5(e), each of the Company and Parent agree to use its reasonable best efforts to take all reasonably necessary, proper or advisable steps to (A) avoid the entry of and (B) resist, vacate, modify, reverse, suspend, prevent, eliminate or remove any actual, anticipated or threatened temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree, decision, determination or judgment entered or issued, or that becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered or issued, in any Proceeding or inquiry of any kind, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), that would reasonably be expected to delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit or make unlawful the consummation of the Transactions, including (I) the defense through litigation (excluding any appeals) on the merits of any claim asserted in any court, agency or other Proceeding by any person or entity (including any Governmental Entity) seeking to delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit consummation of the Transactions and (II) (x) proposing, negotiating, committing to and agreeing to sell, lease, license, divest or otherwise dispose of, or hold separate pending such disposition, (y) agreeing to restrictions or actions that after the Effective Time would limit Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ (including the Company’s) or Affiliates’ freedom of action or operations with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of its or its Subsidiaries’ businesses, product lines or assets or (z) agreeing to enter into, modify or terminate existing contractual relationships, contractual rights or contractual obligations, and promptly effecting the sale, lease, license, divestiture, disposal and holding separate of, assets, operations, rights, product lines, licenses, businesses or interests therein of the Company or Parent or either of their respective Subsidiaries (and the entry into agreements with, and submission to orders of, the relevant Governmental Entity giving effect thereto or to such restrictions or actions) (such sale, lease, license, defense through litigation, divestiture, disposal and holding separate or other action described in clauses (I) or (II), a “Regulatory Remedy”) if such Regulatory Remedy should be reasonably necessary, proper or advisable so as to permit the consummation of the Transactions to occur no later than the Outside Date. Nothing in this Section 6.5(d) shall require either Parent or the Company to effectuate or agree to effectuate any Regulatory Remedy unless such Regulatory Remedy is conditioned upon the Closing and only effective following the Closing.

(e)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.5 to the contrary, neither this Section 6.5 nor the “reasonable best efforts” standard herein shall require, or be construed to require, (x) the Company or Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries or other Affiliates to (i) waive any of the conditions set forth in Article VII as they apply to such Party or (ii) take, effect or agree to any Regulatory Remedy unless such Regulatory Remedy is conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing or is effective on or after the Closing, or (y) Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates to take, effect or agree to any Regulatory Remedy that individually or in the aggregate with any other Regulatory Remedy to be taken, effected or agreed to, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, financial condition or results of operations of (A) the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole from and after the Effective Time or (B) Parent and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Company and its Subsidiaries), taken as a whole from and after the Effective Time, treating for this purpose the effects of all Regulatory Remedies as if they affected a company the size of, and having the financial and operating metrics of, the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (any such effect described in clause (A) or (B), a “Burdensome Effect”).

(f)Subject to applicable Law and the requirements of applicable Governmental Entities, the Company and Parent and their respective counsel shall, in connection

with the efforts referenced in this Section 6.5, (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any Filing with a Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or before a Governmental Entity relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any proceeding initiated by a private person, (ii) where legally permissible, have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult and consider in good faith the views of the other regarding, any material filing made with, or written materials to be submitted to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private person, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this agreement, (iii) promptly inform each other of any material communication (or any other material correspondence or memoranda) received from, or given to, the DOJ or the FTC or any other applicable Governmental Entity and (iv) where legally permissible, promptly furnish each other with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications between them or their Subsidiaries or affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or its respective staff, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to applicable Law and the requirements of applicable Governmental Entities, the Company and Parent shall (with respect to any in-person discussion or meeting), and shall to the extent practicable (with respect to any telephonic discussion or meeting), provide the other party and its counsel with advance notice of and the opportunity to participate in any material discussion or meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Parent shall, on behalf of the Parties and in reasonable consultation with the Company, have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine the nature and timing of any Regulatory Remedy made for the purpose of securing any required approvals under the Antitrust Laws or Foreign Investment Laws to the extent any Regulatory Remedy would be conditioned upon and only be effective after the Closing.

6.6Financing and Indebtedness.

(a)Unless Parent has, and will have on the Closing Date, sufficient cash on hand or other sources of available funds to satisfy the Payment Obligations, Parent shall use 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 consummate the Financing on substantially the same terms and conditions described in or contemplated by the Commitment Papers so that the funds contemplated thereby are available on the Closing Date, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) comply with its obligations under the Commitment Papers and any definitive agreements related thereto (collectively, the “Financing Documents”), (ii) maintain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms the applicable Financing Documents, (iii) negotiate and enter into the Financing Documents on a timely basis so that such documents are in effect as promptly as practicable but in any event no later than the Closing Date, (iv) satisfy as promptly as practicable and on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent or its Subsidiaries contained in the applicable Financing Documents (other than those conditions that by their terms will be satisfied on the Closing Date) so that the Financing will be able to be consummated no later than the Closing Date, (v) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter in the event of a breach by the Financing Entities thereunder and (vi) consummate the Financing no later than the Closing Date.

(b)Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of and material developments in respect of the Financing. Parent shall give the Company prompt notice (i) after obtaining knowledge thereof with respect to the Financing Entities, of any breach or default (or any event that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Financing Document, (ii) of the receipt or delivery of any written notice or other written communication, in each case from any Person with respect to (1) any breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Financing Document, (2) any material dispute or disagreement between or among parties to any Financing Document with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Closing or any other event or condition that could reasonably be expected to cause a condition to the Commitment Letter or Financing Documents not to be satisfied or (3) any refusal by any Financing Entity to fund its commitment under the Commitment Letter or (iii) if at any time for any reason Parent believes in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing in an amount necessary, when combined with Parent’s other sources of available funds, to consummate the Transactions; provided that in no event will Parent be under any obligation to disclose any information pursuant to this Section 6.6(b) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege if Parent shall have used its reasonable best efforts to disclose such information in a way that would not waive or compromise such privilege.

(c)Parent shall not agree to or permit any amendment, supplement or other modification or replacement of, or any termination of, or grant any waiver of, any condition, remedy or other provision under, the Commitment Papers without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such amendment, supplement, modification, replacement, termination or waiver would or would reasonably be expected to (i) prevent or materially delay the Closing, (ii) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing to an amount which is insufficient for Parent, when taken together with other cash on hand and other funding sources, to fund the Payment Obligations upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement on the Closing Date, (iii) impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Papers, in each case, in a manner that would adversely impact in any material respect the ability to obtain such Financing on or prior to the Closing Date to the extent such Financing is necessary in order to fund the Merger Consideration or (iv) adversely impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Papers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is agreed that Parent may modify, supplement or amend the Commitment Papers to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Commitment Papers as of the date hereof. Upon any amendment, supplement, modification, replacement, termination or waiver of the Commitment Papers, Parent shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Company and (i) references herein to “Commitment Papers” shall include such documents as amended, supplemented, modified, replaced, terminated or waived in compliance with this Section 6.6 and (ii) references to the “Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Commitment Papers as amended, supplemented, modified, replaced, terminated or waived in compliance with this Section 6.6.

(d)If any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Commitment Papers and any related “flex” provisions of

the Fee Letter, unless Parent has sufficient cash on hand or other sources of available funds, Parent shall (i) promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) notify the Company of such unavailability and the reasons therefor, (ii) as promptly as practicable use its reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain alternative financing (the “Alternative Financing”) (which Alternative Financing shall have terms and conditions (including fees and “flex” provisions) not less favorable in any material respect than those set forth in the Commitment Papers and in an aggregate amount such that Parent will have on the Closing Date sufficient funds to consummate the Transactions on the Closing Date) to replace any unavailable portion of the Financing, to be consummated no later than the day on which the Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 1.2; provided that such Alternative Financing shall not have conditions to funding of the Financing that are less favorable in any material respect to Parent than those in the original Commitment Papers, (iii) promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) provide to the Company true, correct and complete copies of the commitment letter and related fee letter(s) (redacted to remove fee amounts and other economic terms) relating to such Alternative Financing to replace the Financing and (iv) keep the Company reasonably informed of developments in respect of the process of obtaining such Alternative Financing. All references herein to the “Financing” shall be deemed to include any such Alternative Financing, and all references herein to the “Commitment Letter”, the “Fee Letter” and “Commitment Papers” shall include the applicable commitment letter and related fee letter(s) for any such Alternative Financing.

(e)The Company shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives to, at Parent’s sole expense, use reasonable best efforts to provide reasonable and customary cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with arranging, obtaining, syndicating and consummating the Financing or any other debt financing contemplated in lieu thereof (collectively, the “Debt Financing”), including, to the extent so requested: (i) furnishing Parent with (A) audited consolidated statements of financial position and related statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal year ended at least sixty (60) days prior to the Closing Date, and (B) unaudited consolidated statements of financial position and related statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company for each subsequent fiscal quarter ended after the date of the audited financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (A) above and at least forty (40) days prior to the Closing Date (and the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year); (ii) reasonably assisting Parent and the Financing Entities in the preparation of offering and syndication materials for the Debt Financing, including by providing customary information for due diligence purposes and customary letters authorizing the distribution of information relating to the Company to Financing Entities; (iii) requesting the consent of, and customary comfort letters from, the Company’s independent accountants if necessary for Parent’s use of the Company’s financial statements; (iv) after request by Parent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, furnishing at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date any documentation and other information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries required under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing rules and regulations to the extent requested by the Financing Entities; and (v) instructing appropriate members of senior management to participate, upon reasonable advanced written notice and at mutually agreeable dates and times, in a reasonable number of rating agency presentations, due diligence sessions and meetings or conference calls (it being understood that such meetings shall only occur telephonically or by videoconferencing) with

prospective lenders and other Financing Entities. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand (or their respective Affiliates), the Company agrees that Parent may share customary information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries with the Financing Entities, and that Parent and such Financing Entities may share such information with potential financing sources in connection with any marketing efforts for the Debt Financing; provided, however, that the recipients of such information and any other information contemplated to be provided by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 6.6(e) agree to customary confidentiality arrangements, including “click through” confidentiality agreements and confidential provisions contained in customary bank books and offering memoranda. The Company, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby consents to the use of their logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, however, that logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company, its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(f)Nothing in Section 6.6(e) shall require cooperation to the extent that it would or would reasonably be expected to (i) unreasonably disrupt or interfere with the business or ongoing operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (ii) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to violate any applicable Law or any Organizational Document of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to violate any contract material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (iii) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay any fees or expenses or incur any liability other than for which the Company shall have received reimbursement from Parent, (iv) cause any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement to be breached by the Company and its Subsidiaries or cause any condition to Closing set forth in Article VII (other than the condition in Section 7.2(b) as it relates to the Company’s performance of its obligations in Section 6.6(e)) to fail to be satisfied (in each case, unless waived in writing by Parent), (v) cause any director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any personal liability, (vi) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to authorize or enter into any document in connection with the Debt Financing that would be effective prior to the Effective Time (other than customary authorization letters for purposes of effecting the cooperation envisioned hereunder), (vii) result in the loss of any legal or other applicable privilege by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (viii) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to agree to amend or modify any existing Contract to which it is a party or (ix) require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to provide any legal opinions or prepare any pro forma financial information, budgets or projections (which shall be the sole responsibility of Parent to prepare). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, (y) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations under the agreements for the Debt Financing and (z) the Debt Financing shall not contain any restrictive covenant or other obligation that is required to be performed or complied with by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing. The Company’s obligations under Section 6.6(e) are the sole obligations of the Company with respect to cooperation in connection with the Debt Financing and no other provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood and agreed that the condition precedent set forth in Section 7.2(b) as applied to the Company’s obligations under Section 6.6(e) shall be deemed satisfied unless the Debt Financing

has not been obtained as a direct result of the Company’s intentional material breach of its obligations under Section 6.6(e) to the extent such breach is the primary cause of the unavailability of the Debt Financing.

(g)Parent shall promptly, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company, its Subsidiaries or Representatives in connection with the cooperation and assistance contemplated by Section 6.6(e) (including professional fees and expenses of accountants, legal counsel and other advisors).

(h)Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with any action taken by them in connection with Section 6.6(e) except to the extent such liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties are determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives.

(i)No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a customary payoff letter effective as of the Closing, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, from the lenders under the Company Credit Agreement (or the agent of such lenders), which payoff letter shall (a) confirm the full principal amount then outstanding, along with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other amounts accrued under the Company Credit Agreement and related loan documents (the “Payoff Amount”), (b) contain payment instructions, (c) state that upon receipt of the Payoff Amount, the outstanding Indebtedness, liabilities, liens and guarantees under the Company Credit Agreement and related loan documents (but excluding any contingent obligations, including indemnification obligations or other obligations that, by their terms, survive the payment in full of the obligations under the Company Credit Agreement and the related loan documents, as applicable, that in any such case are not then-due and payable) will be automatically satisfied, released and discharged in full, as applicable and (d) include an authorization for the Company or Parent to file UCC termination statements and any other applicable lien release documents upon such payment.

(j)Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.6, Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of financing by Parent or Merger Sub is not a condition to the Closing, and reaffirm their respective obligations to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective and independently of the availability of any financing.

6.7Information; Access and Reports.

(a)Subject to applicable Law and the other provisions of this Section 6.7, the Company and Parent each shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to), upon request by the other, use reasonable best efforts to furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably

necessary or advisable in connection with the Proxy Statement or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions. The Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to), upon giving of reasonable notice by Parent and subject to any COVID-19 Measures, use reasonable best efforts to afford Parent’s officers and other authorized Representatives reasonable access, solely for the purpose of furthering the Transactions, for integration planning purposes, in connection with synergy identification and analysis and investigation and review of the business, operations and activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries (provided that such investigation and review shall be limited to existing Contracts, books and records as of the date of this Agreement and Contracts, books and records created after the date hereof in the Ordinary Course of Business), in each case, during normal business hours following reasonable advance notice throughout the period prior to the Effective Time, to its officers, Employees, agents, Contracts, books and records (including the work papers of the Company’s independent accountants upon receipt of any required consents from such accountants and subject to the execution of customary access letters), as well as properties, offices and other facilities; provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the Company’s normal operations.

(b)The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.7 shall not require and shall not be construed to require either the Company or Parent to permit any access to any of its officers, Employees, agents, Contracts, books or records, or its properties, offices or other facilities, or to permit any inspection, review, sampling or audit, or to disclose or otherwise make available any information that in the reasonable judgment of the Company or Parent, as applicable, would (i) result in the disclosure of competitively sensitive information or violate the terms of any confidentiality provisions in any agreement with a third party entered into prior to the date of this Agreement, (ii) result in a violation of applicable Law, (iii) waive or jeopardize the protection of any attorney-client privilege or (iv) result in the disclosure of any trade secrets in a manner that would result in any such trade secrets no longer being protected as such under applicable Law following such disclosure. In the event that the Company or Parent, as applicable, objects to any request submitted pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 6.7 and withholds information on the basis of the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall inform the other Party as to the general nature of what is being withheld and shall use reasonable best efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure that does not suffer from any of the foregoing impediments. Each of the Company and Parent, as it deems advisable and necessary, may reasonably designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other as “Outside Counsel Only Material” or with similar restrictions. Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient, or otherwise as the restriction indicates, and be subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement between the Parties. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be directed to the Person designated by the Company or Parent, as applicable. All information exchanged or made available shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives shall not be permitted to perform onsite environmental study with respect to any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c)No exchange of information or investigation by Parent or its Representatives shall affect or be deemed to affect, modify or waive the representations and

warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement, and no exchange of information or investigation by the Company or its Representatives shall affect or be deemed to affect, modify or waive the representations and warranties of Parent set forth in this Agreement.

6.10Employee Benefits.

(a)Each Employee who continues to remain employed with the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (each such employee, a “Continuing Employee”) shall, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending twelve (12) months following Effective Time (the “Continuation Period”), be provided with (i) a base salary or base wage that is no less favorable than the base salary or base wage provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) target annual cash bonus opportunities and target long-term incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the target annual cash bonus opportunities and target long-term incentive compensation opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case, without regard to other award features, and (iii) other compensation and benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the compensation and benefits (excluding equity) provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time.

In addition, the Surviving Corporation shall pay, less any required withholding Taxes, to each Continuing Employee, the annual cash bonus earned for the fiscal year in which the Closing Date occurs at the time bonuses are typically paid under the Surviving Corporation’s annual bonus plan, subject to the Continuing Employee’s continued employment through such date, except that, in the event of a “Qualifying Termination” (as defined in Section 6.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter), the Surviving Corporation shall pay a pro-rated cash bonus based on the number of days in the applicable performance period that have elapsed as of the date of the Qualifying Termination divided by 365, based on the achievement of the target level of performance (or, if greater, the level determined by actual performance immediately before the Qualifying Termination).

(e)The Parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 6.10(e) are included for the sole benefit of the Parties and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any employee benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall limit the right of Parent, the Company or their respective Affiliates to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement following the Closing Date, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the last sentence of Section 6.10(a) (regarding post-Closing severance obligations) or (iii) shall confer upon any Person who is not a party to this Agreement any right to continued or resumed employment or recall, any right to compensation or benefits, or any third-party beneficiary or other right of any kind or nature whatsoever.

(a)From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, to the fullest extent as such individuals would be indemnified as of the date of this Agreement under applicable Law, the Company’s Organizational Documents and any indemnification agreements in effect as of the date of this Agreement, each present and former (determined as of the Effective Time) director and officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and each Person who, served at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, or other agent of another Person, including an employee benefit plan, in each case, in such capacity (the “Indemnified Parties”), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses), judgments, inquiries, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to any Proceeding, in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, including in connection with (i) this Agreement or the Transactions and (ii) actions to enforce this provision or any other indemnification or advancement right of any Indemnified Party, and the Surviving Corporation shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent that such individual would have been entitled to under applicable Law, the Company’s Organizational Documents and any indemnification agreements in effect as of the date of this Agreement; provided that any Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication in a court of competent jurisdiction that such Person is not entitled to indemnification with respect to such expenses.

(b)Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall and, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay the premium for “tail” insurance policies for the extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies for a claims reporting period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time (the “Tail Period”) from one or more insurance carriers with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s insurance carrier as of the date of this Agreement with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable to the insureds as the Company’s existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions); provided that in no event shall the aggregate cost of the “tail” for the D&O Insurance exceed during the Tail Period 300% of the current aggregate annual premium paid by the Company for such purpose; and provided, further, that if the cost of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(c)During the Tail Period, all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto now existing in favor of any Indemnified Party as provided in the Organizational Documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries or any indemnification agreement between such Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Transactions unchanged and shall not be amended, restated, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party. The Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation and, as applicable, the Surviving Corporation’s Subsidiaries shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, contain provisions related to indemnification no less favorable to the Indemnified Parties than the indemnification and exculpation from liability provisions in the Organizational Documents of the Company and its relevant Subsidiaries on the date hereof.

(d)If the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger, (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or (iii) shall convert into another Person or domesticate into another jurisdiction, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.12.

(e)The rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.12 shall survive consummation of the Merger and are in addition to any rights such Indemnified Parties may have under the Organizational Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or under any indemnification agreements or other applicable Contracts of the Company or Laws.

(f)This Section 6.12 is intended to be for the benefit of, and from and after the Effective Time shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, who shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.12. Nothing herein 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 related to the Company or its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers, or other employees.

6.13Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Statute is or may become applicable to the Transactions, each of the Company and the Company Board, respectively, shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary and legally permissible so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the Transactions.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but subject to Section 9.5, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event that any termination fee becomes payable by, and is paid by, the Company, such fee shall be Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy for damages against the Company and its former, current or future shareholders, directors, officers, Affiliates, agents or other Representatives for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or the failure of the Transactions to be consummated; provided, however, that no such payment shall relieve any Party of any liability or damages to any other Party resulting from any fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement.
