AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February 5, 2015, by and among: R.R. DONNELLEY & SONS COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”); RAVEN SOLUTIONS, INC., a Massachusetts corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); RAVEN VENTURES LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger LLC”); and COURIER CORPORATION, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

The Company, Quad/Graphics, Inc., Max Sub, Inc. and QGBC, LLC had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 16, 2015 (the “Quad Merger Agreement”), but immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement the Quad Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms.

Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC and the Company intend to effect a merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into the Company in accordance with this Agreement and the MBCA, with the Company being the surviving company in the Merger, which Merger will be immediately followed by a merger of the Surviving Company with and into Merger LLC (the “LLC Merger” and, together with the Merger, the “Mergers”), in accordance with the MBCA and the LLCA, with the Merger LLC being the surviving company in the LLC Merger. It is intended that the Merger be mutually interdependent with and a condition precedent to the LLC Merger and that the LLC Merger shall, through the binding commitment evidenced by Section 6.12, be effected immediately following the Effective Time without further approval, authorization or direction from or by any of the parties hereto.

The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously (i) determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and the holders of shares of Company Common Stock (“Shares”) to enter into this Agreement providing for, among other things, the Merger, (ii) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the MBCA (other than the LLC Merger) and (iii) adopted a resolution recommending that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) be approved by the holders of Shares.

(i) The Board of Directors of Parent has determined that the Merger and the LLC Merger are in the best interests of Parent and has approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Mergers, (ii) the Board of Directors of Merger Sub has unanimously determined that the Merger is in the best interests of Merger Sub and has approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and (iii) Parent, in its capacities as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub and as the sole member of Merger LLC, shall, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, as applicable, the Mergers.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC to enter into this Agreement, certain stockholders of the Company have entered into voting agreements in connection with the Mergers (the “Voting Agreements”).

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC to enter into this Agreement, the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, are entering into an amendment to that certain Shareholder Rights Agreement between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., dated March 18, 2009 (the “Shareholder Rights Plan”), so as to render the Shareholder Rights Plan, including the preferred stock purchase rights issuable thereunder, inapplicable to this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

It is intended that the Merger and the LLC Merger, considered together as a single integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Article I

MERGER TRANSACTION

Section 1.1 Merger of Merger Sub into the Company.

The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the MBCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, (A) all rights, privileges and powers and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due to Merger Sub and the Company, as well as all other things and causes of action belonging to Merger Sub and the Company, shall be vested in the Surviving Company and shall thereafter be the property of the Surviving Company and (B) all debts, liabilities and duties of Merger Sub and the Company shall attach to the Surviving Company and may be enforced against it to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had been incurred or contracted by it.

(b) The consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Goodwin Procter LLP, Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109, at 9:00 a.m. local time on the second (2nd) business day following the day on which the last to be satisfied of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature must be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) shall be satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement, or at such other place, time and date as Parent and the Company shall agree in writing. The date on which the Closing occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

(c) At the Closing, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing all necessary documentation, including an appropriate articles of merger in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent (the “Articles of Merger”), with the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as provided in the relevant provisions of the MBCA. The Merger shall become effective at the time that the Articles of Merger are duly filed with the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, or such later time as is agreed upon by the parties hereto and specified in the Articles of Merger. The time when the Merger becomes effective is hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

Section 1.2 Articles of Organization and Bylaws; Directors and Officers. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and Parent prior to the Effective Time:

(a) at the Effective Time, (i) the articles of organization of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the articles of organization of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with the MBCA, except the name of the Surviving Company shall be “Raven Solutions, Inc.” (or such other name as Parent designates), and (ii) the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Company, except the name of the Surviving Company shall be “Raven Solutions, Inc.” (or such other name as Parent designates); and

Section 1.3 Proxy Statement/Prospectus; Information Supplied; Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC the proxy statement to be sent to the holders of Shares relating to the Stockholders’ Meeting and a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (including a prospectus) (the “S-4 Registration Statement”) in connection with the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger, of which such proxy statement will form a part (such proxy statement and prospectus constituting a part thereof, the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). Parent and the Company each shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the S-4 Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) clear the preliminary Proxy Statement/Prospectus with the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) mail the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus to the holders of Shares as promptly as reasonably practicable after the S-4 Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Securities Act.

(b) The Company and Parent each 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 (i) the S-4 Registration Statement will, at the time the S-4 Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, 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, and (ii) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto will, at the date of mailing to holders of Shares and at the time of the Stockholders’ Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Company assumes no responsibility with respect to information supplied in writing by or on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and (B) Parent assumes no responsibility with respect to information supplied in writing by or on behalf of the Company for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the S-4 Registration Statement. The Company and Parent each agree that all documents that each is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement will comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(c) The Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall cooperate with each other in the preparation of the S-4 Registration Statement, including the Proxy Statement/Prospectus required thereunder. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC and the Company and their respective counsels shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the S-4 Registration Statement prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and shall provide any comments thereon as promptly as reasonably practicable. Parent shall promptly notify the Company and its counsel of the time when the S-4 Registration Statement has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. Further, each party shall promptly notify the other parties and their counsel of the receipt of any written comments or other material communications such party or its counsel receives from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and shall provide the other party with copies of any written responses to and telephonic notification of any material verbal responses received from the SEC or its staff by such party or its counsel with respect to the S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. If at any time prior to the time the Stockholder Approval is obtained, any party shall become aware of the occurrence of any event or other circumstance that requires an amendment or supplement to the S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus so that the S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as applicable, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then such party shall notify the other party as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, and Parent and the Company each shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, (i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendment or supplement and (ii) mail such amendment or supplement to the holders of Shares to the extent legally required.

(d) As promptly as practicable after the S-4 Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of holders of Shares (the “Stockholders’ Meeting”) to consider and vote upon the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger. Subject to Section 5.4, the Board of Directors of the Company shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and shall take all lawful action to solicit approval of this Agreement by the holders of Shares. If the Board of Directors of the Company makes an Adverse Change Recommendation, it will not alter the obligation of the Company to submit this Agreement to the holders of Shares at the Stockholders’ Meeting to consider and vote upon the approval of this Agreement, unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Stockholders’ Meeting.

Article II

CONVERSION OF SHARES AND DELIVERY OF MERGER CONSIDERATION

Section 2.1 Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC or the holder of any capital stock or other equity security of Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC or the Company:

(a) Each share of common stock, par value $1.25 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(b) Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid, nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Company and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Company.

(c) Each share of Company Common Stock that is owned directly or indirectly by the Company (other than any share of Company Common Stock held in a trust account, managed account or the like, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity, that is beneficially owned by a third party) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no Parent Common Stock or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(d) Except as provided in Section 2.1(c), Section 2.1(g) and Section 6.2(c) with respect to Company Restricted Shares and subject to Section 2.2, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof as provided in Section 2.3, either (1) $23.00 in cash, without interest (the “Cash Consideration”), or (2) 1.3756 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Parent Common Stock, without interest (the “Stock Consideration”). The Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration (including cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock) are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

(e) All Shares converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article II shall no longer be issued or outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate previously representing any such Shares or any Book-Entry Share (each, a “Certificate”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration into which the Shares represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.1 as well as any dividends to which holders of Shares become entitled in accordance with Section 2.5(c).

(f) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, (i) subject to Section 5.2(b), the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities, in each case, as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in capitalization, or (ii) subject to Section 5.2(a), the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities, in each case, as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in capitalization, then the Merger Consideration, the Exchange Ratio and any other similarly dependent items, as the case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to Holders with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event and, as so adjusted, shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration, the Exchange Ratio or other dependent item, as applicable, subject to further adjustment in accordance with this provision.

(g) Notwithstanding Section 2.1(d), Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who (i) is entitled to appraisal, (ii) has not voted in favor of this Agreement or the Merger or consented thereto in writing and (iii) has properly exercised and not withdrawn or otherwise lost appraisal rights for such Shares in accordance with Part 13 of the MBCA (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration but instead shall be converted solely into the right to payment of the fair value of such Shares in accordance with Part 13 of the MBCA; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder at any time fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Part 13 of the MBCA or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Part 13 of the MBCA, such Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1(d), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such Share and related documents. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Part 13 of the MBCA that relate to such demand, and Parent shall have the opportunity and right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands.

Section 2.2 Proration.

(a) The allocation of rights to receive the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration among Holders will be made as set forth in this Section 2.2(a) (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.3(c), whether fractions of Cash Election Shares, Stock Election Shares or Non-Election Shares, as applicable, shall be rounded up or down).

(i) If the Stock Election Number exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, then all Cash Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and, subject to Section 2.5(f) hereof, each holder of Stock Election Shares will be entitled to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Stock Conversion Number and the denominator of which is the Stock Election Number, with the remaining number of such holder’s Stock Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; and

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

(A) If the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and, subject to Section 2.5(f) hereof, each holder of Non-Election Shares shall receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; or

(B) If the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and, subject to Section 2.5(f) hereof, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Cash Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which (1) the Shortfall Number exceeds (2) the total number of Non-Election Shares, and the denominator of which is the total number of Cash Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

Section 2.3 Election Procedures. Each holder of record of Shares that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1 (each, a “Holder”) shall have the right, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article II, to submit an election in accordance with the following procedures (an “Election”):

(a) Parent shall prepare a form reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Form of Election”) which shall be mailed to Holders so as to permit Holders to exercise their right to make an Election prior to the Election Deadline.

(b) Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Form of Election to be sent to Holders as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than five (5) business days) after the mailing of the Proxy Statements/Prospectus and to make available as promptly as reasonably practicable following a request therefor a Form of Election to any Holder who requests such Form of Election following the initial mailing of the Forms of Election and prior to the Election Deadline.

(c) Each Form of Election shall permit Holders (or in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation) to (i) elect to receive the Cash Consideration for all or a portion of such holder’s shares (a “Cash Election”), (ii) elect to receive the Stock Consideration for all or a portion of such holder’s shares (a “Stock Election”), or (iii) make no election with respect to the receipt of the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, a number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Stock Conversion Number”) shall be converted into the Stock Consideration so that 8,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock are issued in the Merger and the remaining Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the Cash Consideration (the “Cash Consideration Number”). Shares as to which a Cash Election has been made and Shares that constitute Dissenting Shares as of the Election Deadline are referred to herein as “Cash Election Shares.” Shares as to which a Stock Election has been made are referred to herein as “Stock Election Shares.” Shares as to which no election has been made (or as to which a Form of Election is not properly completed and returned in a timely fashion) are referred to herein as “Non-Election Shares.” The aggregate number of Shares with respect to which a Stock Election has been made is referred to herein as the “Stock Election Number.” For the avoidance of doubt, if a Holder does not submit a properly completed Form of Election in a timely fashion, the Shares held by such Holder shall be designated Non-Election Shares.

(d) Any Election shall have been made properly only if the Person authorized to receive Elections and to act as exchange agent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which Person shall be selected by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company entered into prior to the mailing of the Form of Election to Holders (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”), shall have received, by the Election Deadline, a Form of Election properly completed and signed and accompanied by, in the case of physical certificates representing Shares, Certificates to which such Form of Election relates or by an appropriate customary guarantee of delivery of such Certificates, as set forth in such Form of Election, from a member of any registered national securities exchange or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States; provided that such Certificates are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent by the time required in such guarantee of delivery. Failure to deliver physical certificates representing Shares covered by such a guarantee of delivery within the time set forth on such guarantee shall be deemed to invalidate any otherwise properly made Election, unless otherwise determined by Parent, in its reasonable discretion. For uncertificated Shares held in book entry

form (a “Book-Entry Share”), Parent shall establish Election procedures for such Shares, which procedures shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. In the event that a Holder has provided a notice of intent to demand payment (a “Notice of Dissenter’s Intent”) pursuant to Section 13.21 of the MBCA, any Election submitted by such Holder (unless such Notice of Dissenter’s Intent shall have been withdrawn prior to the Election Deadline) shall be deemed invalid.

(e) As used herein, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Parent and the Company, “Election Deadline” means 5:00 p.m. local time (in the city in which the principal office of the Exchange Agent is located) on the date that is three (3) business days prior to, but not including, the Closing Date.

(f) Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement, if Parent shall determine in its reasonable discretion that any Election is not properly made with respect to any Shares (neither Parent nor the Company nor the Exchange Agent being under any duty to notify any Holder of any such defect), such Election shall be deemed to be not in effect, and the Shares covered by such Election shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be Non-Election Shares, unless a proper Election is thereafter made prior to the Election Deadline.

(g) Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement, Parent, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, shall have the right to make all determinations, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, governing (i) the validity of the Forms of Election and compliance by any Holder with the Election procedures set forth herein, (ii) the manner and extent to which Elections are to be taken into account in making the determinations prescribed by Section 2.2, (iii) the issuance and delivery of shares of Parent Common Stock into which Shares are converted in the Merger and (iv) the method of payment of cash for Shares converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock.

Section 2.4 Deposit of Merger Consideration. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, (i) shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to deliver, and Parent shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely deliver, the aggregate Stock Consideration in accordance with this Agreement, and (ii) immediately available funds equal to the aggregate Cash Consideration (together with, to the extent then determinable, any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.5(f), the “Exchange Fund”), and Parent shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely pay the Cash Consideration, and such cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by Parent; provided, that (i) no such investment of or losses thereon shall relieve Parent from making the payments required by this Article II or Section 6.2, or affect the amount of Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Shares, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days or guaranteed by, and backed by the full faith and credit of, the United States of America. Any and all interest or other amounts earned with respect to such funds shall be the exclusive property of Parent and shall become part of the Exchange Fund, subject in all cases to the rights of the Holders to receive the Merger Consideration, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable under this Article II and Section 6.2 shall be promptly returned to either Parent or the Surviving Company. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

Section 2.5 Delivery of Merger Consideration.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within ten (10) business days) after the Election Deadline, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each Holder who did not properly complete and timely submit a Form of Election with such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, (i) a letter of transmittal reasonably acceptable to the Company (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Certificate(s) shall pass, only upon delivery of Certificate(s) (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificate(s) to the Exchange Agent) (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and shall be substantially in such form and have such other provisions as shall be prescribed by the Exchange Agent Agreement and (ii) instructions for use in surrendering Certificate(s) in exchange for the Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in accordance with this Article II upon surrender of such Certificate and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.5(c).

(b) After the Effective Time upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of its Certificate(s), accompanied by a properly completed Form of Election or a properly completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, a Holder will be entitled to receive, and Parent shall deliver, or cause the Exchange Agent to deliver, the Merger Consideration (elected or deemed elected by it, subject to, and in accordance with Section 2.1(c), Section 2.2 and Section 2.3), including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in respect of the Shares formerly represented by its, his or her Certificate(s). Until so surrendered, each such Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time, for all purposes, only the right to receive, without interest, the Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate and related documents in accordance with, and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to, this Article II.

(c) No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock shall be paid to a Holder whose Shares were converted into Stock Consideration unless and until the Holder has surrendered its, his or her Certificate and related instruments in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate and related instruments in accordance with this Article II, such Holder shall be entitled to receive, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to the whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate were converted in accordance with this Article II and not paid and/or (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions payable with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock into which the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate were converted in accordance with this Article II with a record date after the Effective Time (but before such surrender date) and with a payment date subsequent to the issuance of the Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to such Certificate.

(d) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be delivered to any Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered in the stock transfer records of the Company, it shall be a condition to the delivery of such Merger Consideration that such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such payment or issuance shall pay any transfer or other similar Taxes (as defined herein) required by reason of the payment or issuance to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that the Tax has been paid or is not applicable. The Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any cash portion of the Merger Consideration, cash dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.5(c) hereof and any other cash amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as the Exchange Agent or Parent, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent the amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Company, as the case may be.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of any Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than to settle transfers of Shares that occurred prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing Shares are presented for transfer on the stock transfer records of the Company, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in accordance with Section 2.2 and the procedures set forth in this Article II.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender of Certificates for exchange, no dividend or distribution with respect to Parent Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Parent. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Parent shall pay to each former stockholder of the Company who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share, an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) determined by multiplying (i) the Cash Consideration by (ii) the fraction of a share (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock held by such holder at the Effective Time and rounded to the nearest one thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Parent Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(d).

(g) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by Holders six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be promptly paid to Parent upon the request of Parent. Any Holders who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent with respect to the Merger Consideration, including any unpaid dividends and distributions on the Parent Common Stock, deliverable in respect of each Share that such Holder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Company, the Exchange Agent or any other

Person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to any Governmental Body pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, immediately prior to the date any Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Body, such Merger Consideration shall become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(h) In the event 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 reasonably required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as Parent may determine is reasonably necessary 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 deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

(a) Until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1:

(i) the Company shall not, nor shall the Company permit any of its Subsidiaries to, nor shall the Company authorize or permit any of its Representatives or any of its Subsidiary’s Representatives to, and the Company shall not publicly propose to, directly or indirectly (other than with respect to Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC), (A) solicit, initiate, make, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage any inquiries, proposals or offers that constitute, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (B) engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Third Party regarding, furnish to any Third Party information or provide to any Third Party access to the businesses, properties, assets or personnel of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or otherwise cooperate in any way with any Third Party, relating to, in connection with or for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating, an Acquisition Proposal, or (C) enter into any letter of intent, agreement, Contract, commitment or agreement in principle with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement to the extent permitted by Section 5.3(b)) or enter into any letter of intent, agreement, Contract, commitment or agreement in principle requiring or that would require the Company to modify, delay, abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(ii) the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, (A) immediately cease and terminate any existing solicitation, encouragement, discussion, negotiation or communication with any Third Party theretofore conducted by the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives with respect to an Acquisition Proposal and (B) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such Third Party (and its Representatives) in possession of confidential information about any Acquired Corporation to return or destroy all such information. Any violation of this Section 5.3 by any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any Representatives of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3(a), if, at any time prior to the time the Stockholder Approval is obtained, (i) the Company receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, (ii) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of Section 5.3(a), (iii) the Board of Directors of the Company reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably likely to result in, a Superior Proposal and (iv) the Board of Directors of the Company reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel, that failing to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Company may, prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, (A) furnish information and data with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal and afford such Third Party access to the businesses, properties, assets and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and (B) enter into, maintain and participate in discussions or negotiations with the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal or otherwise cooperate with or assist or participate in, or facilitate, any such discussions or negotiations; provided, however, that the Company (1) shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives not to, furnish any information or data concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to such Third Party except pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, and (2) shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, concurrently with

the time such information or data is provided or made accessible to such Third Party, provide to Parent any information or data concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or access provided to such Third Party which was not previously provided to Parent.

(c) From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) orally and in writing notify Parent of any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, any information requested from, or any negotiations or discussions sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Representatives of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, in connection with, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, which notification shall identify the name of the Third Party making such inquiry, proposal or request or seeking such negotiations or discussions and the material terms and conditions of such inquiry, proposal or request and include copies of all written materials provided to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any Representatives of the Company or its Subsidiaries that describe any terms and conditions of any inquiry, proposal or request (and any subsequent changes to such terms and conditions). The Company shall thereafter keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of any material developments, discussions or negotiations regarding any such Acquisition Proposal, and the material terms and conditions thereof (including any change in price or form of consideration), including by providing a copy of documentation relating thereto that is exchanged between the Third Party (or its Representatives) making such Acquisition Proposal and the Company (or its Subsidiaries or Representatives of the Company or its Subsidiaries) within twenty-four (24) hours after the receipt thereof.

(d) The Company agrees not to release or permit the release of any Third Party from, or to permit any Third Party to benefit from any waiver or termination of any provision of, any confidentiality, “standstill” or similar agreement to which any of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party (a “Standstill Release/Waiver”); provided, that the Company may provide a Standstill Release/Waiver to the limited extent necessary to permit a Third Party to make a confidential proposal to the Company or the Company’s Board of Directors for a transaction involving an Acquisition Proposal to the extent the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel, that failure to provide such a Standstill Release/Waiver would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 or Section 5.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and/or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, after consultation with outside legal counsel, the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to cause the Board of Directors of the Company to violate its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, however, that any such disclosure (other than issuance by the Company of a “stop, look and listen communication” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that addresses or relates to the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Board of Directors of the Company with respect to this Agreement or an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be an Adverse Change Recommendation unless the Board of Directors of the Company, in connection with such communication, publicly states that its recommendation with respect to this Agreement has not changed or refers to the prior recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors with respect to this Agreement, without disclosing any Adverse Change Recommendation.

Section 5.4 Company Recommendation.

(a) None of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company or any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, fail to include in (or remove from) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, withdraw, adversely qualify or modify (or resolve, determine or propose publicly to withhold, fail to include in (or remove from) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, withdraw, adversely qualify or modify) the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) adopt, approve, recommend, submit to stockholders or declare advisable (or resolve, determine or propose publicly to adopt, approve, recommend, submit to stockholders or declare advisable) any Acquisition Proposal, including any Superior Proposal, or (iii) adopt, approve or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend, or allow the Company or any other Acquired Corporation to execute or enter into, any binding or non-binding letter of intent, agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement, commitment, arrangement or understanding contemplating or otherwise in connection with, or that is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, including any Superior Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement to the extent permitted by Section 5.3(a)) (any action described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) being referred to as an “Adverse Change Recommendation”), except as expressly permitted by Section 5.4(b).

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3 and Section 5.4(a), at any time prior to the time the Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Board of Directors of the Company may approve or recommend, or cause the Company to enter into a definitive agreement providing for, a Superior Proposal (and, in each case, make an Adverse Change Recommendation in connection therewith) if and only if:

(i) the Superior Proposal did not result from a breach of Section 5.3(a) and the Company did not otherwise breach any of its obligations under Section 5.3 or Section 5.4(a) in any material respect;

(ii) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to approve or recommend or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal would reasonably likely violate the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company under applicable Law;

(iii) Parent shall have received from the Company prior written notice of the Company’s express intention to approve or recommend or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal at least three (3) business days prior to the date of such approval, recommendation or entry; and

(iv) (A) prior to giving effect to clauses (B) through (E) below, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the subject Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; (B) the Company shall have provided to Parent in writing the material terms and conditions of the subject Acquisition Proposal and copies of all material documents relating to the subject Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 5.3(c); (C) the Company shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent (and caused its Representatives to negotiate in good faith with Parent) during the three (3) business day period provided in the foregoing clause (iii) of this Section 5.4(b) with respect to any proposed revisions to this Agreement or other proposals made by Parent, if any, so that the subject Acquisition Proposal would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; (D) after considering the results of negotiations with Parent and taking into account the proposals made by Parent, if any, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and the Company Financial Advisor, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have reasonably determined in good faith that the subject Acquisition Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and that the failure to approve or recommend or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal would reasonably likely violate the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company under applicable Law; and (E) not later than earlier of the approval or recommendation of, or the execution and delivery of a definitive agreement with respect to, the Superior Proposal, the Company shall have complied with Section 8.1(f) and Section 8.3.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.4(b) shall also apply to any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal (except that any reference to three (3) business days shall instead be two (2) business days).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time prior to the time the Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Board of Directors of the Company may make an Adverse Change Recommendation with respect to an Intervening Event, if and only if:

(i) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company Financial Advisor and the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to make the Adverse Change Recommendation would reasonably likely violate the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company under applicable Law;

(ii) Parent shall have received from the Company prior written notice of the Company’s express intention to make the Adverse Change Recommendation at least three (3) business days prior to making any Adverse Change Recommendation, describing the Intervening Event in reasonable detail;

(iii) during the three (3) business day period provided in the foregoing clause (ii), the Company shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent (and caused its Representatives to negotiate with Parent) with respect to any proposed revisions to this Agreement or other proposals made by Parent, if any, that would obviate the need to make an Adverse Change Recommendation; and

(iv) after considering the results of negotiations with Parent and taking into account the proposals made by Parent, if any, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and the Company Financial Advisor, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have reasonably determined in good faith that the failure to make the Adverse Change Recommendation would reasonably likely violate the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company under applicable Law.

The provisions of this Section 5.4(c) shall also apply to any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to an Intervening Event (except that any reference to three (3) business days shall instead be two (2) business days).

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.1, each party hereto shall (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding by or before any Governmental Body with respect to the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) keep the other parties reasonably informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from the FTC, DOJ or any other Governmental Body to the extent regarding the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or regarding any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, and provide a copy of all written communications with respect thereto and (iv) pull and re-file any notice under the HSR Act only if the other parties agree.

In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Body or by any applicable Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding in respect of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each party hereto will permit authorized Representatives of the other party to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Body in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Parent agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to avoid, eliminate or resolve each and every impediment and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals and waivers under Antitrust Laws that may be required by any Governmental Body, so as to enable the parties to consummate the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event

no later than three (3) business days prior to the End Date), including without limitation (i) committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, the divestiture, sale, license, transfer, assignment or other disposition of assets or businesses of Parent or Company or their respective Subsidiaries, (ii) terminating, relinquishing, modifying, transferring, assigning, restructuring, or waiving existing agreements, collaborations, relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of Parent or Company or their respective Subsidiaries and (iii) creating or consenting to create any relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations, behavioral undertakings, transition service agreements, tolling agreements, or other arrangements of Parent or Company or their respective Subsidiaries (and, in each case, to enter, or offer to enter, into agreements and stipulate to the entry of an order or decree or file appropriate applications with any Governmental Body in connection with any of the foregoing and in the case of actions by or with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or its or their businesses or assets, by consenting to such action by the Company) (provided, however that any such action may, at the discretion of the Company, be conditioned upon consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining any clearance, consent, approval or waiver hereunder from any Governmental Body, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to, and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall without the prior written consent of Parent, take or consent to any actions described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the first sentence of this Section 6.1(d), except that Parent acknowledges that its reasonable best efforts under Section 6.1(b) include an obligation that Parent take actions described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the first sentence of this Section 6.1(d) (a “Divestiture Action”) so long as (A) the assets, businesses, product lines or interests therein that would be the subject of such Divestiture Action collectively produced, or were used in the production of or contributed to the production of, annual revenue (based on gross fiscal 2014 revenue of either or both of Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, or the Company and its Affiliates, on the other hand) in an amount that is less than $70,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Consent Cap”) and (B) such Divestiture Action is required or imposed by a Governmental Body to permit the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement under applicable Antitrust Laws. Parent shall, subject to the Consent Cap, propose, negotiate, offer to commit to and effect (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect), such Divestiture Action so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than three (3) business days prior to the End Date). Parent shall have the sole and exclusive right to propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, any and all Divestiture Actions or otherwise offer to take or offer to commit (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect) to take any Divestiture Action as may be required to resolve any Governmental Body’s objections to the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent shall consider in good faith the views of the Company and its counsel in connection therewith.

(e) In the event that any litigation or other administrative or judicial action or Legal Proceeding is commenced by any Governmental Body challenging the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as being in violation of any Antitrust Law and such litigation, action or proceeding seeks, or would reasonably be expected to seek, to prevent consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, subject to the restrictions and limitations in Section 6.1(d), Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve any such litigation, action or

proceeding and each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall cooperate with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to contest any such litigation, action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) None of Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC shall, nor shall they permit their respective Subsidiaries to, acquire or agree to acquire any rights, assets, business, Person or division thereof (through acquisition, license, joint venture, collaboration or otherwise), if such acquisition would reasonably be expected to increase the risk of not obtaining any applicable clearance, consent, approval or waiver under Antitrust Laws with respect to the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.1(f) shall prevent Parent or its Subsidiaries from making capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business.

Section 6.2 Company Options, ESPP and Company Stock Awards.

(a) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each then-outstanding Company Option, whether vested or unvested or exercisable or unexercisable under the Company Equity Plans, shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into only the right to receive (without interest), an amount in cash (less applicable Tax withholdings), payable in a lump sum through the Company’s payroll or accounts payable system as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than the second payroll period) after the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the excess, if any, of (1) the Cash Consideration over (2) the exercise price per share of such Company Option, and (B) the number of Shares underlying such Company Option. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the Cash Consideration is equal to or less than the exercise price per share of a Company Option, such Company Option shall be cancelled automatically at the Effective Time without payment or other consideration therefor. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.2(a) to the holder of any Company Option shall be reduced by any income or employment Tax withholding, or other deductions, required under (A) the Code, (B) any applicable state, local or foreign Tax Laws or (C) any other applicable Laws, including pursuant to the terms of any wage garnishment order.

(b) ESPP. As soon as administratively practicable following the date of this Agreement, but not later than the day immediately prior to the date on which the first (1st) offering period that is regularly scheduled to commence under the ESPP after the date of this Agreement is scheduled to commence, the Company (or, if appropriate, the applicable committee administering the ESPP) shall take all actions necessary or required under the ESPP (including, if appropriate, amending the terms of the ESPP) and applicable Law to (i) suspend the ESPP so that (x) no further offering periods shall commence after the date of this Agreement, (y) no individual participating in any offering period in progress as of the date of this Agreement shall be permitted to increase the amount of his or her rate of payroll contributions thereunder from the rate in effect when the last offering period commenced, or to make separate non-payroll contributions to the ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement; and (z) no individual who is not participating in the ESPP as of the date of this Agreement may commence participation in the ESPP following the date of this Agreement, (ii) end the last offering period that commenced

prior to the date of this Agreement on the earlier to occur of its regularly scheduled end date under the terms of the ESPP or three (3) calendar days prior to the Effective Time, and (iii) cause the ESPP to terminate as of the Effective Time such that no further rights shall be granted or exercised under the ESPP thereafter. With respect to the offering period that is in effect on the date of this Agreement, each ESPP participant may apply his or her accumulated payroll deductions to purchase shares of the Company Common Stock under the ESPP in accordance with its terms on the regularly scheduled purchase date for such offering period; provided, that, if the Closing Date occurs prior to the purchase date for the offering period, then each ESPP participant’s accumulated payroll deductions under the ESPP shall be used to purchase Shares in accordance with the terms of the ESPP no later than three (3) business days prior to the Effective Time; provided, further, that the applicable purchase price per Share as set forth in the ESPP shall not be decreased below levels set forth in the ESPP as of the date hereof. All Shares of Company Common Stock purchased under the ESPP shall be considered outstanding Shares for all purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, for purposes of the right to receive the Forms of Election and to make elections and receive the Merger Consideration with respect thereto.

(c) Other Stock-Based Awards. At the Effective Time, each award of any kind consisting of Shares (including any Shares subject to vesting restrictions and/or forfeiture or repurchase by the Company (“Company Restricted Shares”)), granted under any of the Company Equity Plans that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Company Options and rights under the ESPP) (each, a “Company Stock Award”) shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into only the right to receive (without interest), an amount in cash payable in a lump sum through the Company’s payroll or accounts payable system as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than the second payroll period) after the Effective Time, equal to (i) the product of (A) the Cash Consideration and (B) the number of Shares underlying such Company Stock Award, plus (ii) the amount set forth in Part 6.2(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.2(c) shall be reduced by any income or employment Tax withholding, or other deductions, required under (A) the Code, (B) any applicable state, local or foreign Tax Laws or (C) any other applicable Laws, including pursuant to the terms of any wage garnishment order.

(d) Actions Necessary. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Acquired Corporations, the Board of Directors of the Company and/or the compensation committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to (x) effectuate the provisions of this Section 6.2 and (y) ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, neither Parent nor the Surviving Company will be required to deliver Shares or other capital stock of Parent or the Surviving Company to any Person pursuant to or in settlement of Company Options, any Company Stock Award or under the ESPP after the Effective Time.

Section 6.3 Employee Benefits . For a period commencing upon the Effective Time and continuing for a period of seven (7) months after the Effective Time, Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to each Company Associate who is employed at the Effective Time and continues to be employed by Parent or an Affiliate of Parent following the Effective Time (the “Continuing Employees”) base salary or base hourly rate, as applicable, welfare and fringe

benefits and annual bonus opportunities (the “Continuing Benefits”), excluding equity-based compensation and retention and retirement benefits, that are at least substantially similar in the aggregate to the compensation and benefits provided to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that such obligation shall not apply to any Continuing Employees who voluntarily transfers to another position of employment with Parent or an Affiliate after the Effective Time or who voluntarily elects a reduced work schedule if, as a result of such change in status, the Continuing Employee’s base salary will be modified or the Continuing Employee does not meet the eligibility requirements under which such Continuing Benefits are provided. Without limiting the foregoing:

(a) At the Effective Time, with respect to any accrued but unused personal, sick or vacation time to which any Continuing Employee is entitled pursuant to the personal, sick or vacation policies applicable to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to and instruct its Subsidiaries to, as applicable, assume the liability for such accrued personal, sick or vacation time and allow such Continuing Employee to use such accrued personal, sick or vacation time in accordance with the practice and policies of the applicable Acquired Corporation.

(b) If requested by Parent at least ten (10) business days prior to the Effective Time, the Acquired Corporations shall terminate any and all U.S. Employee Plans intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “401(k) Plan(s)”), effective not later than the business day immediately preceding the Effective Time. In the event that Parent requests that such 401(k) Plan(s) be terminated, the Acquired Corporations shall provide Parent with evidence that such 401(k) Plan(s) have been terminated pursuant to resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors not later than two (2) business days immediately preceding the Effective Time. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Parent. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such other actions in furtherance of terminating any such 401(k) Plan(s) as Parent may reasonably request. Immediately prior to such termination, the Company will make (or cause to be made) all necessary payments to fund the contributions (i) necessary or required to maintain the tax-qualified status of any such 401(k) Plan, (ii) for elective deferrals made pursuant to any such 401(k) Plan for the period prior to termination, and (iii) for employer matching contributions (if any) for the period prior to termination. If the Parent does not request that the 401(k) Plans be terminated prior to the Effective Time, then the Acquired Corporations shall amend such plans, prior to the Effective Time, to provide that the cash payments made in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including but not limited to, the payments made pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, be excluded from the definition of compensation under such plans. Whether or not the Parent requests that the 401(k) Plans be terminated, the Continuing Employees shall be provided, for a period commencing upon the Effective Time and continuing for a period of seven (7) months after the Effective Time, a 401(k) plan that provides substantially similar benefits to either the benefits provided under the 401(k) Plans or the benefits that are provided under the Parent’s 401(k) Plan to its eligible employees (subject to the requirements of subsection (c) below).

(c) Parent agrees that, after the Effective Time, all Continuing Employees shall be eligible to continue to participate in the Surviving Company’s health and welfare benefit plans to the extent that they were eligible to participate in such plans prior to the Closing; provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 6.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the right

of Parent or the Surviving Company to amend or terminate any such health or welfare benefit plan at any time, and (ii) if Parent or the Surviving Company terminates any such health or welfare benefit plan, then (upon expiration of any appropriate transition period) Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Continuing Employees to be eligible to participate in Parent’s or an Affiliate’s health and welfare benefit plans, to substantially the same extent as similarly situated employees of Parent or its Affiliate (taking into account job location). To the extent that service is relevant for eligibility, vesting or allowances (including paid time off) under any benefit plan of Parent and/or the Surviving Company, Parent shall use reasonable efforts to cause such benefit plan to (to the extent that it would not result in any duplication of benefits), for purposes of eligibility, vesting and allowances (including paid time off) but not for purposes of benefit accrual, credit Continuing Employees for service prior to the Effective Time with the Acquired Corporations to the same extent that such service was recognized prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding benefit plan of the Company.

(d) With respect to all employees, the Acquired Corporations shall be responsible for providing any notices required to be given and otherwise complying with the WARN or similar statutes or regulations of any jurisdiction relating to any plant closing or mass layoff (or similar triggering event) caused by the Acquired Corporations prior to the Effective Time. If Parent determines that an event would trigger WARN obligations (or obligations arising under similar statutes or regulations) after the Effective Time, Parent shall be responsible for providing notices to all employees as are required to be provided notice under WARN (or any similar statute or regulation), in a form that is compliant with applicable regulations.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly required by any collective bargaining agreement to which an Acquired Corporation is a party as of the date of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended nor shall be construed to (i) be treated as an amendment to any particular Employee Plan, (ii) prevent Parent from modifying, amending or terminating any of its benefit plans or, after the Effective Time, any Employee Plan, (iii) create a right in any Person to employment with Parent, the Surviving Company or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Company, it being understood that the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment, or (iv) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any Person, including, without limitation, any employee of the Acquired Corporations or the Surviving Company, any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof.

(f) Continuing Employees shall be eligible for severance benefits as set forth in Schedule 6.3(f) and (ii) after the Effective Time, Parent agrees to cause the Surviving Company to honor the terms, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, of each Contract set forth on Schedule 6.3(f), including by causing the Surviving Company to pay and provide all post-termination benefits required to be paid or provided to any individual pursuant to the express terms, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, of the applicable Contract in the event that such individual does not become (or ceases to be) a Continuing Employee after the Effective Time.

Section 6.4 Plan of Reorganization. The parties intend the Merger and the LLC Merger, considered together as a single integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, to be a reorganization as defined in Section 368(a)(1) of the Code. The parties will file all Tax Returns consistently with such intention, and no party will take a position that is

inconsistent with that intention (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise). This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of section 1.368-2(g) of the income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Effective Time, each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Mergers to qualify, and will not knowingly take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken which action or failure to act would prevent the Mergers from qualifying, as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Following the Effective Time, none of Parent, the Surviving Company, Merger LLC or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall knowingly take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act would cause the Mergers to fail to qualify as reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Section 6.5 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) For six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or Merger LLC shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company or Merger LLC to) maintain officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time covering each such person currently covered by the Company’s officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy on terms with respect to coverage and amount no less favorable than those of such policy in effect on the date hereof; provided, however, that in satisfying its obligation under this Section 6.5(a), none of Parent, Merger LLC or the Surviving Company shall be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the amount per policy period the Company paid in its last full fiscal year prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Current Premium”) and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed 300% of the Current Premium, then the Surviving Company or Merger LLC shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance that, in the Surviving Company’s or Merger LLC’s, as the case may be, good faith judgment, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 300% of the Current Premium. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid “tail” or “runoff” policies have been obtained by the Company prior to the Effective Time, which policies provide such directors and officers with coverage for an aggregate period of six (6) years with respect to claims arising from acts or omissions that occurred at or before the Effective Time, including in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the amount paid for such prepaid policies does not exceed 300% of the Current Premium. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or Merger LLC shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company or Merger LLC to) maintain such policies in full force and effect for their full term, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or Merger LLC shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company or Merger LLC to): (i) indemnify, defend and hold harmless each individual who at the Effective Time is, or at any time prior to the Effective Time was, a director or officer of the Company or of a Subsidiary of the Company (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all costs, expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel, which shall be advanced as they are incurred, provided that the Indemnified Party shall have made an undertaking to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.5(b)),

judgments, fines, penalties or liabilities (including amounts paid in settlements or compromises) to the extent sought to be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or other proceeding (whether civil or criminal, and including any proceeding before any administrative or legislative body or agency) in which such Indemnified Party is involved or with which he or she is threatened (regardless of whether as a named party or as a participant other than as a named party, including as a witness) (a “Proceeding”) (A) by reason of such Indemnified Party’s having been such director or officer or an employee or agent of the Company or otherwise in connection with any action taken or not taken at the request of the Company or (B) arising out of such Indemnified Party’s service in connection with any other corporation or organization for which he or she has served as director or officer at the request of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, in each of clause (A) or (B), at, or at any time prior to, the Effective Time (including any Proceeding relating in whole or in part to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and including any Proceeding relating to the enforcement of this Section 6.5(b) by an Indemnified Party), whether or not the Indemnified Party continues in such position at the time such Proceeding is brought or threatened, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; and (ii) fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to: (x) each indemnification agreement in effect between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any Indemnified Party as of the date of this Agreement, to the extent such agreement is disclosed in Part 3.16(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; and (y) any indemnification provision (including advancement of expenses) and any exculpation provision set forth in the articles of organization or bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement. Parent’s, Merger LLC’s and the Surviving Company’s obligations under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses in respect of any claim asserted or made in good faith by an Indemnified Party within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim.

(c) If Parent, Merger LLC, the Surviving Company or any of its respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, Merger LLC or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall assume the applicable obligations set forth in this Section 6.5.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.5 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her successors or assigns who by operation of Law, including without limitation, any estate or probate Law, succeed to the liabilities of such Indemnified Party, and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Indemnified Party may have under any articles of organization or bylaws, by contract or otherwise. After the Effective Time, the obligations of Parent, Merger LLC and the Surviving Company under this Section 6.5 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.5 applies unless the affected Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 6.5 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.5).

Section 6.6 Stockholder Litigation. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within two (2) business days) notify Parent in writing of, and shall give Parent the opportunity to participate (at its own expense) in the defense and settlement of, any Stockholder Litigation; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall settle or offer to settle any such Stockholder Litigation without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (other than settlements that are solely for the payment of cash in an amount that, collectively with all other settlements or compromises of any Legal Proceedings (whether or not such Legal Proceedings constitutes Stockholder Litigation) occurring after the date of this Agreement, do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate).

Section 6.7 Disclosure. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any other public statement, or scheduling a press conference or conference call with investors or analysts, with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such other public statement without the consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as such release or announcement may be required by applicable Law or the rules of a national securities exchange or trading market, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall consult with the other party about, and allow the other party reasonable time (taking into account the circumstances) to comment on, such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, and the party will consider such comments in good faith; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to consult with Parent before issuing any press release or making any other public statement with respect to an Adverse Change Recommendation effected in accordance with Section 5.4(b).

Section 6.8 Takeover Laws; Advice of Changes.

(a) If any Takeover Law becomes or is deemed to be applicable to the Company, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the Voting Agreements, then each of the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to render such Takeover Law inapplicable to the foregoing.

(b) Each of the Company and Parent will give prompt notice to the other (and will subsequently keep the other informed on a current basis of any material developments related to such notice) upon its becoming aware of the occurrence or existence of any fact, event or circumstance that (i) has, (x) with respect to the Company, had or would reasonably be expected to result in any Company Material Adverse Effect and (y) with respect to Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC, had or would reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect or (ii) is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII not being able to be satisfied prior to the End Date.

Section 6.10 Stock Exchange Delisting; Deregistration. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Law and rules and policies of NASDAQ to enable the delisting by the Surviving Company of the Shares from NASDAQ and the deregistration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event no more than ten (10) days after the Closing Date.

The LLC Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the MBCA and the LLCA. The (a) certificate of organization of Merger LLC as in effect immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be the certificate of organization of the Surviving LLC until thereafter amended in accordance with the LLCA, except the name of the Surviving LLC shall be “Raven Ventures LLC” (or such other name as Parent designates), and (b) operating agreement of Merger LLC as in effect immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be the operating agreement of the Surviving LLC until thereafter amended in accordance with the LLCA, except the name of the Surviving LLC shall be “Raven Ventures LLC” (or such other name as Parent designates).

(h) by the Company by written notice to Parent in the event of a breach by Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC of any representation or warranty or failure to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement that would result in any condition set forth in Section 7.3 not being satisfied (assuming for this purpose that the date of such determination is the Closing Date); provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 8.1(h), if such a breach or failure is curable by Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC within the earlier of the End Date and thirty (30) days of the date the Company gives Parent notice of such breach or failure and Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC is continuing to use its reasonable best

efforts to cure such breach or failure, then the Company may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(h) on account of such breach or failure unless such breach or failure shall remain uncured upon the earlier of the End Date and the expiration of such thirty (30) day period; provided further, however, that the Company shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(h) if the Company is in breach of its obligations under this Agreement such that Parent would be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(g).

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect without liability of any party (or any Representative of such party) to each other party hereto; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8.2, the penultimate sentence of Section 5.1(a), Section 8.3, Article IX and the applicable definitions in Exhibit A or elsewhere in this Agreement shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 8.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, none of Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC or the Company shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its intentional breach of any provision of this Agreement or any fraud; provided, however, that the failure of any party hereto to consummate the Merger or the LLC Merger on the date specified in Section 1.1(b) shall constitute an intentional material breach by such party, and such party shall be liable to the other parties for such breach as provided herein notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

Section 8.3 Termination Fee.

(b) In the event that:

(i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(c);

(ii) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(f); or

(iii) (A) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(g), (B) after the date of this Agreement and at or prior to the time of the termination of this Agreement, a Third Party shall have made, commenced or submitted, or publicly announced its intention to make, commence or submit, an Acquisition Proposal, and (C) the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company consummates an Acquisition Proposal within twelve (12) months after such termination or the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company enters into a definitive agreement within twelve (12) months after such termination to effect an Acquisition Proposal (provided that, for purposes of this Section 8.3(b)(iii), all percentages in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be replaced with 50%),

then the Company shall pay to Parent a fee in an amount equal to $7,500,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds, free of costs and charges, to an account designated in writing by Parent (x) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(i), within two (2) business days after such termination, (y) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(ii), concurrently with termination of this Agreement, and (z) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(iii), upon the earlier of the entry into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or the consummation of an Acquisition Proposal.

(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by, (A) either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b) as a result of any final and nonappealable Order with respect to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Laws, (B) either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(e) and at the time of such termination, any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(b), Section 7.1(c) or Section 7.1(d) in connection with any injunction, order, decree, ruling or other action related to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Laws shall not have been satisfied, or (C) the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(h) due to a breach by Parent of its obligation to take a Divestiture Action under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 6.1, then Parent shall pay to the Company a fee equal to $12,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same-day funds on the second (2^nd) business day following such termination. In the event that the Company shall receive full payment pursuant to this Section 8.3(c), the receipt of the Parent Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Acquired Corporations or their respective Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the transactions contemplated hereby (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of the Acquired Corporations or any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC or any of their respective Affiliates for damages or any equitable relief arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination.

(d) The Company and Parent acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Company, the Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC would not enter into this Agreement. If the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall fail to pay the Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee when due, such fee shall also be deemed to include the costs and expenses incurred by the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC (including fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 8.3, together with interest on such unpaid fee, commencing on the date that such fee became due, at a rate equal to the rate of interest published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such fee became due.
