SECTION 2 CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS

2.1 Authority; Issuance of CVRs; Appointment of Rights Agent.

(a) Parent has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Parent and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Parent are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Parent and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Rights Agent, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the performance by Parent of its obligations hereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) conflict with, or result in any violation of any provision of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of Parent, or (ii) conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation under, any loan or credit agreement, note, mortgage, indenture, lease, or other agreement, obligation, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Parent or its properties or assets which violation, in the case of clause (ii), individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to be material to Parent. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration, notice or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to Parent in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Parent or the consummation by Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) One CVR will be issued with respect to each CVR Share and Vested Company Option in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

(c) Parent hereby appoints AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, LLC as the Rights Agent to act as rights agent for Parent in accordance with the instructions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement, and AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, LLC hereby accepts such appointment.

2.2 Nontransferable. The CVRs shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer. Any purported transfer of a CVR other than in a Permitted Transfer shall be null and void ab initio.

2.3 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.

(a) The CVRs will be issued in book-entry form only and will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

(b) The Rights Agent will keep an up-to-date register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of the CVRs and Permitted Transfers of the CVRs as herein provided.

(c) Subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer and any other requested documentation in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Rights Agent, duly executed by the registered CVR Holder or CVR Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney, including the evidence of authority of the party presenting the CVR for transfer, which authority may include, if applicable, a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association. A request for a transfer of a CVR must be accompanied by such documentation establishing that the transfer is a Permitted Transfer as may be reasonably requested by the Rights Agent, if appropriate. Upon receipt of such written request and materials, the Rights Agent will, subject to its reasonable determination that the transfer instrument is in proper form and the transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein, register the transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register. All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register will be the valid obligations of Parent, evidencing the same right and will entitle the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement as those previously held by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR will be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any transfer not duly registered in the CVR Register will be void and invalid. All costs and expenses related to any transfer or assignment of the CVRs (including the cost of any transfer tax) will be the responsibility of the transferor; provided that the Rights Agent shall not impose a service charge for any registration of a Permitted Transfer.

Upon receipt of such request, the Rights Agent shall promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register. The written request must be duly executed by the CVR Holder and conform to such other reasonable requirements as the Rights Agent may from time to time establish.

2.4 Payment Procedure.

(a) Within 60 days following the end of each Parent fiscal year in which each Threshold Achievement Date has occurred, Parent will deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate (each, a “Reporting Certificate”) certifying that the CVR Holders are entitled to receive the corresponding CVR Payment(s) and setting forth, in reasonable detail, Parent’s calculation of the CVR Payment Amount, together with reasonable supporting documentation for such calculation. Within 60 days following the end of each Parent fiscal year that begins prior to the CVR Program Outside Date in which a Threshold Achievement Date has not occurred, Parent will deliver to the Rights Agent a Reporting Certificate certifying that the CVR Holders are not entitled to receive any CVR Payment(s) and setting forth, in reasonable detail, Parent’s calculation of the Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds as of the end of such fiscal year, together with reasonable supporting documentation for such calculation.

5

(b) If (a) no CVR Program Transaction has been entered into prior to the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Approval Date, or (b) if the Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds fail to exceed twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000) prior to the CVR Program Outside Date, then, within forty-five (45) days after the earlier to occur of (a) and (b), Parent will deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate (the “CVR Program Transaction Non-Achievement Certificate” and, together with the Reporting Certificate(s), the “Certificates”), stating that no CVR Payment Amount is due. The Rights Agent shall deliver each certificate to each Holder at its registered address within three (3) Business Days of its receipt thereof.

(c) The Acting Holders may object to any determination or calculation set forth in a Certificate by delivery of a written notice thereof to the Parent setting forth in reasonable detail such objection, together with reasonable supporting documentation (an “Objection Notice”), within forty-five (45) days following receipt of the applicable Certificate from Parent (the “Objection Period”). If the Acting Holders do not submit an Objection Notice during the Objection Period, Parent’s determination of the non-existence of a CVR Program Transaction, or the calculation of the CVR Payment Amount, as the case may be and as reflected in the applicable Certificate, shall be final and binding on all parties. If the Acting Holders timely deliver to Parent an Objection Notice, Parent and the Acting Holders shall attempt in good faith to resolve such matters within thirty (30) days after receipt of the same by Parent, and if unable to do so, Parent and the Acting Holders (on behalf of the CVR Holders) shall jointly engage the Financial Expert, whose appointment shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the parties and the CVR Holders. The Financial Expert will, under the terms of its engagement, be appointed to serve as an expert and not an arbitrator, be required to render its written decision with respect to such disputed items and amounts within thirty (30) Business Days from the date of such appointment. The Financial Expert shall deliver to the parties a written report setting forth its adjustments, if any, to the CVR Payment Amount based on the Financial Expert’s determination, solely with respect to the disputed items and amounts in accordance with this Agreement, and such report shall include the calculations supporting such adjustments; provided, that for each item set forth in the Objection Notice, the Financial Expert shall assign a value for each such item no greater than the higher amount, and no less than the lower amount, calculated or set forth in the Reporting Certificate or the Objection Notice with respect to such item, as the case may be. The Financial Expert shall have no power to amend or supplement the terms of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or act ex aequo et bono. The Financial Expert’s report shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the parties and the CVR Holders, shall not be subject to further review by any court, and no party or CVR Holder nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives may seek recourse to any courts, other tribunals or otherwise, other than to enforce the determination of the Financial Expert. The fees and expenses of the Financial Expert shall be allocated between Parent and the CVR Holders (by deduction from the current or of future CVR Payment Amounts) in the same proportion that the disputed amount to the CVR Payment Amount that was unsuccessfully disputed by (as finally determined by the Financial Expert) bears to the total disputed amount of the CVR Payment Amount. The date on which a CVR Payment Amount becomes final and binding on the parties is referred to herein as a “Payment Determination Date.”

(d) Parent shall, within thirty (30) days following (i) the date of the applicable Certificate, or (ii) if an Objection Notice is issued pursuant to Section 2.4(c), following the corresponding Payment Determination Date (as applicable, a “CVR Payment Date”), pay the aggregate CVR Payment Amount for any non-Employee CVR Holders through the Rights Agent (for the account of the non-Employee CVR Holders), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as may be designated by the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent will distribute the CVR Payment Amount to the non-Employee CVR Holders (each non-Employee CVR Holder being entitled to receive its pro rata share of such CVR Payment Amount, as applicable,

6

based on the number of CVRs held by such non-Employee CVR Holder as reflected on the CVR Register on the date of the Reporting Certificate or the date of final determination pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable) (i) by check mailed to the address of each such respective non-Employee CVR Holder as reflected in the CVR Register as of the close of business on the last Business Day before such CVR Payment Date, or, (ii) with respect to any non-Employee CVR Holder who has provided the Rights Agent with wire transfer instructions meeting the Rights Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.

(e) Following a CVR Payment Date, subject to Section 7.16, Parent shall pay the CVR Payment Amount to the CVR Holders who are employees or former employees of STSA (an “Employee CVR Holder”) through payroll, less applicable withholdings and deductions, each Employee CVR Holder being entitled to receive its pro rata share of such CVR Payment Amount, as applicable, based on the number of CVRs held by such Employee CVR Holder on the applicable Payment Determination Date.

(f) If Parent issues a CVR Program Transaction Non-Achievement Certificate pursuant to Section 2.4(b) and no Objection Notice has been timely delivered to Parent in response to such CVR Program Transaction Non-Achievement Certificate within the Objection Period, then the CVR Holders will have no right to receive a CVR Payment, and Parent and the Rights Agent will have no further obligations with respect to any CVR Payment.

(g) Parent will promptly furnish to the Rights Agent all information and documentation in connection with this Agreement and in the possession of Parent and relating to the CVRs, any CVR Program Transaction or any CVR Payment(s) that the Rights Agent may reasonably request on behalf of the Holders in order to perform under this Agreement.

(h) Parent acknowledges that the bank accounts maintained by the Rights Agent in connection with the services provided under this Agreement will be in the Rights Agent’s name and that the Rights Agent may receive investment earnings in connection with the investment at the Rights Agent’s risk and for its benefit.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any portion of the CVR Payment paid by Parent to the Rights Agent that remains unclaimed as of the first anniversary of the expiration of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.12 shall, to the extent permitted by law, be delivered to Parent or its designee. The Holders shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of any owed CVR Payments.

(j) Neither Parent, the Rights Agent nor any of their Affiliates shall be liable to any CVR Holder for any payments delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat law or other similar Law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such CVR Holders at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall be delivered to Parent or its designee. The Holders shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of any owed CVR Payments.

2.5 Audit and Information Rights.

(a) Prior to the expiration of this Agreement, and in addition to and without limiting any rights of the Holders pursuant to Section 2.4, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Rights Agent, simultaneously with its delivery of each Certificate, a written report, in such form as Parent shall reasonably determine, summarizing the performance of, and significant activity related to, the CVR Program Transactions (including status updates on negotiations related to potential CVR Program Transactions not yet executed and the conduct of any development activities pertaining to the CVR Program following the Closing Date) and any Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds paid or payable (including expectations around upcoming payments and the timing thereof).

7

(b) In connection with any Objection Notice, Parent shall provide the Financial Expert with reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance request to the books and records of Parent Group to the extent necessary to verify (i) whether a CVR Program Transaction occurred prior to the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Approval Date or (ii) Parent’s calculation of a CVR Payment Amount. Further, subject to not less than five (5) Business Days advance written notice from the Acting Holders, Parent shall permit the Financial Expert, acting as agent of the Acting Holders, to have access during normal business hours to the books and records of the Parent Group as may be reasonably necessary to audit the calculation of any CVR Payment Amount or the calculation of the amount of Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds.

(c) Prior to the expiration of this Agreement, upon not less than twenty (20) Business Days’ written request by the Acting Holders, but in no event more than once per year, Parent shall meet at reasonable times during normal business hours with the Acting Holders to discuss the content of any Reporting Certificate. Parent agrees to maintain (and shall cause all other Persons included in Parent Group to maintain) true, complete and accurate books and records in sufficient detail to enable the Holders and the Financial Expert to determine the CVR Payment Amounts and the amount of Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds.

2.6 No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in Parent.

(a) The CVRs shall not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs to any CVR Holder, except as specifically provided herein.

(b) The CVRs shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in Parent or in any constituent company to the Acquisition. The rights of the CVR Holders and the obligations of Parent are contract rights limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and such CVR Holders’ sole right to receive property hereunder is the right to receive cash from Parent, if any, through the Rights Agent in accordance with the terms hereof. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that a CVR shall not constitute a security of Parent.

2.7 Ability to Abandon the CVR. A CVR Holder may at any time at its option abandon all of its remaining rights in a CVR by transferring the CVR to Parent or any of its successors or assigns without consideration therefor, and Parent shall promptly notify the Rights Agent in writing of such transfer. Nothing in this Section 2.7 is intended to prohibit Parent or any of its Affiliates from offering to acquire CVRs for consideration in its sole discretion. Any CVRs acquired by Parent or any of its Affiliates shall be automatically deemed extinguished and no longer outstanding.

2.8 Withholding. Each of Parent Group, the Rights Agent, and any other Person who has any obligation to deduct or withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it determines are required by applicable Law to be deducted and withheld. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and remitted to the appropriate Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable Law, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

7.11 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any Person or set of circumstances, shall be determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, shall not be impaired or otherwise affected and shall continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7.12 Expiration. This Agreement shall expire ab initio and be of no further force or effect, the parties hereto shall have no liability hereunder, and no further payments shall be required to be made, upon the earlier to occur of (a) the expiration of the Objection Period associated with the CVR Program Transaction Non-Achievement Certificate, if a CVR Program Transaction Non-Achievement Notice is issued in accordance with Section 2.4(b) and no Objection Notice with respect thereto is issued during the applicable Objection Period in accordance with Section 2.4(c), (b) the final termination of the last agreement by which any Aggregate Cumulative Net Proceeds may be payable to Parent related to a CVR Program Transaction, (c) the Approval Date does not occur on or before the date that is eighteen (18) months after this Agreement and (d) the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

(b) As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

16

(c) The bold-faced headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

7.14 Confidentiality.

(a) “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all technical or business information relating to a party, including, without limitation, financial, marketing and product development information, stockholder information (including any non-public information of such stockholder), and proprietary information that is disclosed or otherwise becomes known to the other party or its Affiliates, agents or representatives before or during the term of this Agreement. Confidential Information shall not include any information that is: (a) already known to the other party or its Affiliates at the time of the disclosure, provided that such prior knowledge can be substantiated by the written records of such party; (b) publicly known at the time of the disclosure or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or failure of the other party; (c) subsequently disclosed to the other party or its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis by a third party not having a confidential relationship with the owner and which rightfully acquired such information; or (d) independently developed by one party without access to the Confidential Information of the other, provided that such independent development can be substantiated by the written records of such party. This Agreement, including all of its terms and conditions, will not be deemed to be Confidential Information and may be publicly disclosed by Parent.

(b) All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, Affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement such physical and other security measures and controls as are necessary to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 7.14.

(c) In the event that any requests or demands are made for the disclosure of Confidential Information, other than requests to Rights Agent for stockholder records pursuant to standard subpoenas from state or federal government authorities (e.g., divorce and criminal actions), the party receiving such request will promptly notify the other party to secure instructions from an authorized officer of such party as to such request and to enable the other party the opportunity to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment, unless such notification is otherwise prohibited by law or court order. Each party expressly reserves the right, however, to disclose Confidential Information to any person whenever it is advised by counsel that it may be held liable for the failure to disclose such Confidential Information or if required by law or court order.

17

(d) As may be required by law and without limiting any party’s rights in respect of a breach of this Section 7.14, each party will promptly:

(i) notify the other party in writing of any unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information by any person or entity that may become known to such party;

(ii) furnish to the other party full details of the unauthorized possession, use or disclosure; and

(iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent a recurrence of any such unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of Confidential Information.

7.15 Further Assurances. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto will, from time to time, do all acts and things and execute and deliver all such further documents and instruments, as the other parties hereto may reasonably require to effectively carry out or perform the provisions of this Agreement.

7.16 Section 409A. Cash payments under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A as short-term deferrals and are not intended to constitute “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and administered in accordance with the foregoing intent, so as to avoid the imposition of taxes and penalties on Employee CVR Holders pursuant to Code Section 409A. Without limitation of the foregoing, unless otherwise permitted in compliance with or under an exemption from Code Section 409A, no CVR Payment Amount otherwise due to an Employee CVR Holder with respect to a CVR awarded in exchange for the cancellation of a Vested Company Option will be paid following the later of (i) the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) the latest time that payment of such CVR Payment Amount would not result in a Tax on the Employee CVR Holder under Code Section 409A. Any CVR Payment Amount that is not paid by reason of the preceding sentence will be reallocated to all CVR Holders in accordance with their pro rata allocations of CVR Payment Amounts (excluding the number of CVRs held by each Employee CVR Holder for which such payment would result in a Tax on such Employee CVR Holder under Code Section 409A). Each payment made under this Agreement shall be deemed a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. None of Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates shall have liability to any Employee CVR Holders, any such Employee CVR Holder’s spouse or otherwise if this Agreement or any amounts paid or payable hereunder become subject to the additional tax and penalties under Code Section 409A.
