NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:






Article I - THE MERGER; CLOSING; SURVIVING COMPANY
1.1    The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease. The Company shall be the surviving company in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Company”), and the separate corporate existence of the Company with all its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises shall continue unaffected by the Merger, except as set forth in Article II. The Merger shall have the effects specified in the DGCL.
1.2    Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place (a) at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in no event later than three (3) Business Days following the day on which the last to be satisfied or waived of each of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions) shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement or (b) at such other place and time and/or on such other date as the Company and Parent may otherwise agree in writing (but in any event in the case of clauses (a) or (b), not earlier than November 12, 2018) (the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”).
1.3    Effective Time. Upon the Closing, the Company and Parent will cause a Certificate of Merger with respect to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed, acknowledged and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as provided in the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at the time when the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time as may be agreed upon by the Parties in writing and set forth in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the DGCL (the “Effective Time”).
1.4    The Certificate of Incorporation. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company shall be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A hereto and as so amended and restated shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.
1.5    The Bylaws. At the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Company shall be amended and restated to conform to the bylaws of Merger Sub (except that references to the name of Merger Sub shall be replaced with the name of the Company) (the “Bylaws”), and as so amended and restated shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.
1.6    Directors of the Surviving Company. The Parties shall take all actions necessary so that the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors of the Surviving Company until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws.






1.7    Officers of the Surviving Company. The Parties shall take all actions necessary so that the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the officers of the Surviving Company until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws.
ARTICLE II     - EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON SECURITIES; EXCHANGE
2.1    Effect on Capital Stock.
(a)    At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any capital stock of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub:
(i)    Merger Consideration. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares owned by Parent or Merger Sub or Shares held in treasury, if any (each such Share, an “Excluded Share” and, collectively, “Excluded Shares”)) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive 0.450 (the “Exchange Ratio”) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”).
(ii)    At the Effective Time, all of the Shares (other than Excluded Shares) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and (A) each certificate (a “Certificate”) formerly representing any of the Shares (other than Excluded Shares) and (B) each book-entry account formerly representing any uncertificated Shares (“Uncertificated Shares”) (other than Excluded Shares) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, any distributions or dividends payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e), without interest, in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 2.2, in the case of certificated Shares, and upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form in accordance with Section 2.2(i) in the case of Uncertificated Shares.
(iii)    Cancellation of Excluded Shares. Each Excluded Share shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the holder thereof, cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled without payment of any consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.
(b)    Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Surviving Company, and such converted shares shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Company.
2.2    Exchange of Certificates.






(a)    Exchange Agent and Exchange Fund. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the Company’s stockholders for the purpose of receiving and holding their Certificates and Uncertificated Shares and shall obtain no rights or interests in the shares represented thereby. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a) in book-entry form equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration (excluding any cash in lieu of fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e)), and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay any dividends under Section 2.2(c) (such evidence of book-entry shares of Parent Common Stock and cash amounts, together with any dividends or other distributions with respect thereto, the “Exchange Fund”), in each case, for the sole benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock. In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to pay any dividends under Section 2.2(c), Parent shall, or shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Exchange Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, delivery of the Merger Consideration and any amounts payable in respect of dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.2(c) out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that any investment of such cash shall in all events be limited to direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government, in commercial paper rated P-1 or A-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available), and that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares entitled to receive such amounts pursuant to this Article II. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Surviving Company on the earlier of (A) one (1) year after the Effective Time or (B) the full payment of the Exchange Fund.
(b)    Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of Shares represented by a Certificate (other than holders of Excluded Shares) (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(g)) to the Exchange Agent, such letter of transmittal to be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, and (ii) instructions for surrendering the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(g)) to the Exchange Agent. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of the Certificate as provided in Section 2.2(g)) to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor one or more shares of Parent






Common Stock which shall represent, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a), less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.2(h). The Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the shares of Parent Common Stock to be exchanged upon due surrender of the Certificate may be issued to such transferee if the Certificate formerly representing such Shares is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.
(c)    Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. All shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by Parent in respect of the Parent Common Stock, the record date for which is after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares of Parent Common Stock issuable in the Merger. No dividends or other distributions in respect of the Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to the Merger shall be paid to any holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(g)) is surrendered for exchange in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(g)), there shall be issued and/or paid to the holder of the whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest thereon, (A) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and not paid and (B) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time, but with a payment date subsequent to surrender.
(d)    Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.
(e)    Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. The Exchange Agent, acting as agent for the holders of shares of Company Common Stock otherwise entitled to receive fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, will aggregate all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that would otherwise have been required to be distributed and cause them to be sold in the open market for the accounts of such holders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash, rounded to the nearest whole cent and without interest, in an amount equal to the proceeds from such sale by the Exchange Agent, if any, less any brokerage






commissions or other fees, transfer Taxes or other out-of-pocket transaction costs, as well as any expenses of the Exchange Agent incurred from the sale of such fractional shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with such holder’s fractional interest in the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock sold.
(f)    Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of the Company for one-hundred and eighty (180) days after the Effective Time shall be delivered, at Parent’s option, to Parent. Any holder of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of any shares of Parent Common Stock and payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares and any dividends and other distributions in respect of the Parent Common Stock to be issued or paid pursuant to the provisions of this Article II (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.2(h)) upon due surrender of its Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(g)), without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Company, Parent, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official 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 Entity, such Merger Consideration shall become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.
(g)    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. 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 required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may direct 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 cash in lieu of fractional shares, shares of Parent Common Stock and any dividends and other distributions in respect of the Parent Common Stock that would have been issuable or payable pursuant to the provisions of this Article II (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section  2.2(h)) had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.
(h)    Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity and (ii) 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 by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.
(i)    Uncertificated Shares. Any holder of Uncertificated Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II in respect of such Uncertificated Shares. In lieu thereof, each registered holder of one or more Uncertificated Shares whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, any distributions or dividends payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e), shall, upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (or such other evidence, if any, as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request), be entitled to receive, and the Surviving Company shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) for each Uncertificated Share, and the Uncertificated Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable to a holder of Uncertificated Shares.
2.3    Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that the Company changes the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any such Shares, or Parent changes the number of shares of Parent Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any such Parent Common Stock, in each case issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, subdivision, or other similar transaction, the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to eliminate the effects of such event on the Merger Consideration.
2.4    Treatment of Equity Awards.
(a)    Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. Each outstanding Company RSU, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a Parent restricted stock unit award on the terms and conditions (including, if applicable, any continuing vesting requirements and vesting acceleration terms) under the Company Stock Plan and applicable award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, with respect to a number of shares of Parent Common Stock, rounded up to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying (i) the number of Shares subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.
(b)    Treatment of Performance Stock Units. Each Company PSU, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into a Parent restricted stock unit award that vests solely based on the passage of time






on the terms and conditions (including, if applicable, any continuing vesting requirements and vesting acceleration terms) under the Company Stock Plan and applicable award agreement in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, with respect to a number of shares of Parent Common Stock, rounded up to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying (i) the number of Shares subject to such Company PSU determined pursuant to the applicable award agreement governing the Company PSU that would vest based on the terms of such agreement by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.
(c)    Further Action. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are necessary to effectuate the treatment of the Company RSUs and Company PSUs (collectively, the “Company Equity Awards”) set forth in this Section 2.4(c). Effective as of the Effective Time, Parent shall assume (A) the Company Equity Awards in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.4 and (B) sponsorship of the Company Stock Plan, provided that references to the Company shall thereupon be deemed reference to Parent and references to Shares therein shall be deemed references to Parent Common Stock with appropriate equitable adjustments to reflect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(d)    As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-8 (or file such other appropriate form) registering a number of shares of Parent Common Stock necessary to fulfill Parent’s obligations under this Section 2.4. Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery with respect to the Company Equity Awards assumed by it in accordance with this Section 2.4.
2.5    No Dissenters’ Rights. In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to holders of the Shares in connection with the Merger.

(c)    Parent and the Company shall cooperate with respect to the Antitrust Laws. No Party or its counsel shall independently participate in any substantive call or meeting relating to the Antitrust Laws with any Governmental Entity in respect of such filings, investigation, or other inquiry without giving the other Party or its counsel prior notice of such call or meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend and/or participate. In furtherance of the foregoing and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) each Party shall notify the other, of any filing or material or substantive communication or inquiry it or any of its Subsidiaries intends to make with any Governmental Entity relating to the matters that are the subject of this Section 5.6, (ii) prior to submitting any such filing or making any such communication or inquiry, such Party shall provide the other Party and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review, and shall consider in good faith the comments of the other Party in connection with, any such filing, communication or inquiry, (iii) promptly following the submission of such filing or making such communication or inquiry, provide the other Party with a copy of any such filing or, if in written form, communication or inquiry and (iv) consult with the other Party in connection with any inquiry, hearing,






investigation or litigation by, or negotiations with, any Governmental Entity relating to the Merger, including the scheduling of, and strategic planning for, any meetings with any Governmental Entity relating thereto. In exercising the foregoing cooperation rights, the Company and Parent each shall act reasonably and as promptly as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, materials provided pursuant to this Section 5.6 may be (x) reasonably redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company and the Merger, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns, (D) as necessary to remove competitively sensitive material, or (E) as otherwise required by applicable Law or (y) provided to the other Party as “Outside Counsel Only Material” or with similar restrictions pursuant to Section 5.7(c).
(d)    In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in this Section 5.6, each of the Parties shall prepare and submit, in a form acceptable to the cognizant security agency, to the Defense Security Service (“DSS”) of the United States Department of Defense a notification under NISPOM and any other applicable national or industrial security regulations, and any other applicable customer, national or industrial security regulations or customer program security requirements; provided, that each of Parent and the Company shall have approval rights over the content of all related communications, filings and notifications and shall be entitled to participate in all related discussions, where acceptable to the cognizant security agency.
(e)    In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in this Section 5.6, each of the Parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity in connection with the HSR Act, any other applicable Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and to avoid the entry of, or effect the dissolution of, any decree, order, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding, that would otherwise have the effect of preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. For the purposes of this Section 5.6, “reasonable best efforts” shall include taking any and all actions necessary to obtain the Consents or waiting period expirations of any Governmental Entity required to consummate the Merger prior to the Termination Date, including (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to, effecting and agreeing to, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license, hold separate, and other disposition of the businesses, assets, products or equity interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ other businesses, assets, products or equity interests now owned or hereafter acquired by Parent, (ii) creating, terminating, or amending any existing relationships, ventures, contractual rights or obligations of Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries, (iii) otherwise taking or committing to any action that would limit Parent’s freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain or hold, directly or indirectly, any businesses, assets, products or equity interests of Parent or the Company (including any of their respective Subsidiaries) and (iv) making, or causing any Subsidiaries to make, any commitment, or committing to (or causing any Subsidiaries to commit to) make any commitment (to any Governmental Entity or otherwise) regarding the future operations of Parent or the Company (including any of their respective Subsidiaries) (the “Regulatory Actions”); provided that Parent shall not be required to accept or agree to any Regulatory Action that would result in,






or would be reasonably likely to result in, either individually or in the aggregate, a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent or on the Company. “Regulatory Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to any Person, any Effect, in each case resulting from or arising out of the matters contemplated by this Section 5.6 that has a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, revenue or EBITDA of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided that, for purposes of determining whether any action, term or condition would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent, Parent and its Subsidiaries will collectively be deemed to be a company the size of (and with revenue and EBITDA equal to those of) the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, further, that, for purposes of determining whether any action, term or condition would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect on Parent or on the Company, impacts on Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries will be aggregated. “EBITDA” means, with respect to any Person, the sum of (1) consolidated net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, plus (2) without duplication and to the extent deducted in determining such consolidated net income, the sum of (I) consolidated interest expense, (II) consolidated income tax expense and (III) all amounts attributed to depreciation or amortization, in each case of such Person and its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Section 5.6 shall require Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries to take or agree to take any action with respect to its business or operations unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the Closing.
(f)    In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in this Section 5.6, if any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Antitrust Law, each of the Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such 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 Merger.
(g)    Information. The Company and Parent each shall, upon request by the other, promptly furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Form S-4, Joint Proxy Statement/ Prospectus and any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(h)    Status. The Company and Parent each shall keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notice or other communications received by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries from any third party and/or any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than immaterial communications.






5.7    Access; Consultation. (a) Upon reasonable notice, and except as may otherwise be required by applicable Law, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford the other Party’s Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time, to the other Party’s, and each of its Subsidiaries’ employees, properties, assets, books, records and contracts and, during such period, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other all information concerning its or any of its Subsidiaries’ capital stock, business and personnel as may reasonably be requested by the other; provided that no investigation pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company or Parent; and provided, further that the foregoing shall require neither the Company nor Parent to permit any invasive environmental sampling or to disclose any information pursuant to this Section 5.7 to the extent that (i) in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Party, any applicable Law requires such Party or its Subsidiaries to restrict or prohibit access to any such properties or information, (ii) in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Party, the information is subject to confidentiality obligations to a third party or (iii) disclosure of any such information or document would result in the loss of attorney-client privilege; provided, further that with respect to clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 5.7(a), Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (1) obtain the required consent of any such third party to provide such inspection or disclosure, (2) develop an alternative to providing such information so as to address such matters that is reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company and (3) in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), implement appropriate and mutually agreeable measures to permit the disclosure of such information in a manner to remove the basis for the objection, including by arrangement of appropriate clean room procedures, redaction or entry into a customary joint defense agreement with respect to any information to be so provided, if the Parties determine that doing so would reasonably permit the disclosure of such information without violating applicable Law or jeopardizing such privilege. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be conducted in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the other Party. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be directed to an executive officer of the Company or Parent, as applicable, or such Person as may be designated by any such executive officer.
(b)    Each of Parent and the Company, as it deems advisable and necessary, may reasonably designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other as “Outside Counsel Only Material” or with similar restrictions. Such material and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient, or otherwise as the restriction indicates, and be subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement between the Parties. All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement. To the extent that any of the information or material furnished pursuant to this Section 5.7 or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement may include material subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege concerning pending or threatened legal proceedings or governmental investigations, the Parties understand and agree that they have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is their desire, intention and mutual understanding that the sharing of such material is not intended to, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, shall not, waive or






diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege. All such information that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, this Agreement, and under the joint defense doctrine. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and Parent shall reasonably cooperate in identifying any actions or practices of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could require remediation under applicable Law and, to the extent identified, shall cooperate in taking commercially reasonable actions or practices and other customary actions to reduce the risks related to such actions where the failure to remediate would reasonably be likely to result in substantial fines or penalties.
(c)    Each of the Company and Parent shall give prompt notice to one another upon obtaining Knowledge of any Effect that would reasonably be likely to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect (as applicable), or of any reasonably likely failure of any condition to Parent’s or the Company’s obligations to effect the Merger (as applicable).
5.8    Stock Exchange Listing, De-listing and De-registration. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall take all actions necessary to permit the Shares and any other security issued by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and listed on the NYSE to be de-listed from the NYSE and de-registered under the Exchange Act as soon as possible following the Effective Time.
5.9    Publicity. The initial press release with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby shall be a joint press release and thereafter the Company and Parent shall consult with each other prior to issuing or making, and provide each other the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on, any press releases or other public announcements with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any filings with any Governmental Entity (including any national securities exchange) with respect thereto, except (a) as may be required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any national securities exchange, (b) any consultation that would not be reasonably practicable as a result of requirements of applicable Law, (c) any press release or public statement that in the good faith judgment of the applicable Party is consistent with prior press releases issued or public statements made in compliance with this Section 5.9 or (d) with respect to any Company Change in Recommendation or Parent Change in Recommendation made in accordance with this Agreement or the other Party’s response thereto.
5.10    Employee Benefits.
(a)    Parent agrees that each employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary who continues to remain employed with the Company or its Subsidiaries following the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) shall, during the period commencing at the






Effective Time and ending on December 31, 2019 (the “Continuation Period”), be provided with (i) an annual rate of base salary or base wage that is no less favorable than the base salary or base wages provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) target annual cash bonus opportunities that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the target annual cash bonus opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iii) long-term incentive opportunities that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the long-term incentive opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent agrees that Continuing Employees shall, during the Continuation Period, be provided with pension, welfare and other employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employees as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, annual and long-term incentive opportunities and equity-based compensation). Additionally, Parent agrees that each Continuing Employee shall, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on December 31, 2019, be provided with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Continuing Employee under the Company Plans set forth on Section 5.10 of the Company Disclosure Letter. Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to honor the annual bonus obligations set forth on Section 5.10 of the Company Disclosure Letter. Subject to Section 5.10(e), following the Effective Time, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to honor all Company Plans, in accordance with their terms.
(b)    Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to waive, or cause its insurance carriers to waive, all pre-existing conditions, exclusions or waiting periods that could otherwise apply to any Continuing Employee under the benefit plans provided for such Continuing Employee following the Closing, except to the extent such conditions, exclusions or waiting periods were applicable to the Continuing Employee prior to the Effective Time. With respect to the plan year during which the Effective Time occurs, Parent shall provide each Continuing Employee with credit for deductibles and out-of-pocket requirements paid prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any Parent plan in which such Continuing Employee is eligible to participate following the Closing Date.
(c)    From and after the Closing Date, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to, provide credit to Continuing Employees for their service recognized by the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility, vesting, continuous service, determination of service awards, vacation, paid time off, and severance entitlements to the same extent and for the same purposes as such service was credited under the Company Plans, provided that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits.
(d)     As soon as practicable following the date hereof, the Company shall take all actions with respect to the ESPP to provide that with respect to any offering periods in effect as of the date hereof (the “Current Purchase Period”), (x) no employee who is not a participant in the ESPP as of the date hereof may become a participant in the ESPP, and (y) each individual






participating in the Current Purchase Period in progress on the date of this Agreement will not be permitted to increase his or her payroll contribution rate pursuant to the ESPP from the rate in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement, except as may be required by applicable Law. In addition, (i) the Current Purchase Period will end on December 31, 2018; provided that if the Effective Time is prior to December 31, 2018, the Company will end the Current Purchase Period on a specified trading day occurring at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs; (ii) there will be no offering periods following the Current Purchase Period and (iii) in all events, the Company shall terminate the ESPP prior to the Effective Time.
(e)    If Parent so requests (which request shall be made not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the Effective Time), the Company shall take any and all actions required (including, without limitation, the adoption of resolutions by the Company Board of Directors) to amend, suspend or terminate any or all Company Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time to the extent such actions are permitted by Law (including any required prior notice obligations), the terms of this Section 5.10, or the terms of the applicable plan; provided that any amendment, suspension or termination of any Company Plan shall not impact the benefits required to be provided pursuant to Section 5.10(a).
(f)    The provisions of this Section 5.10 are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no other Person, including any current or former employee, participant in any Company Plan or other dependent, beneficiary or other individual associated therewith, is or shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Section 8.8), no provision of this Agreement is intended to, or does, (i) constitute the establishment of, or an amendment to, any Company Plan or any employee benefit plan of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Affiliates, (ii) alter or limit the ability of Parent or any of its Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Company Plan, any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (iii) give any third party any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 5.10, (iv) prevent Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Affiliates, after the Effective Time, from terminating the employment of any Continuing Employee or (v) be deemed to confer upon any such individual or legal representative any right to continued employment or any rights under or with respect to any plan, program or arrangement described in or contemplated by this Agreement, and each such individual or legal representative shall be entitled to look only to the express terms of any such plan, program or arrangement for his or her rights thereunder.
5.11    Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 7.5 and 7.6, whether or not the Merger is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such expense.
5.12    Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. (a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company determined as of the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Parties”), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable






and documented attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) (including with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including this Agreement and the transactions and actions contemplated hereby)), arising out of the fact that such Indemnified Party is or was a director or officer of the Company, or, while a director or officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Person prior to the Effective Time, in each case, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company would have been required to under Delaware Law, any applicable indemnification agreement to which such Person is a party in effect as of the date of this Agreement, the Company Charter or Company Bylaws in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such Person (and the Surviving Company shall also advance expenses as incurred by Indemnified Parties in defending any proceeding to the same extent as such Indemnified Parties are entitled to advance of expenses as of the date of this Agreement by Company pursuant to the Company Charter, Company Bylaw or any applicable indemnification agreement to which such Person is a party; provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced shall provide an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification). Parent shall ensure that the organizational documents of the Surviving Company shall, for a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company and its Subsidiaries than are presently set forth in the Company Charter and Company Bylaws. Any right of indemnification of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified at any time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such Indemnified Party as provided herein.
(b)    Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall and, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company as of the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay for “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, employment practices liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as the Company’s existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby); provided, however that in no event shall the Company expend for such policies an annual premium amount in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for such insurance provided, further that if the premium for such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Surviving Company shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.
If Parent or any of its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then and in each such case proper provisions shall be






made so that the successors and assigns of Parent shall assume all of the obligations of Parent set forth in this Section 5.12.

(c)    The provisions of this Section 5.12 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives. The rights of each Indemnified Party under this Section 5.12 shall be in addition to any rights such individual may have under Delaware Law, any applicable indemnification agreement to which such Person is a party, the Company Charter or the Company Bylaws.
(d)    Neither of Parent or the Surviving Company shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any threatened or actual proceeding for which indemnification could be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such settlement, compromise or consent.
(e)    Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.12 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.
5.13    Takeover Statute. The Company and the Company Board and Parent and the Parent Board shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to (x) take all action reasonably appropriate to ensure that no state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (y) if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation becomes applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, take all action reasonably appropriate to ensure that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement.
5.14    Control of the Company’s or Parent’s Operations. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent or the Company, directly or indirectly, rights to control or direct the operations of the other prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision of its operations.
5.15    Section 16(b). The board of directors of each of the Company and Parent (or, in each case, a duly authorized committee thereof) shall, prior to the Effective Time, take all such actions within its control as may be necessary or appropriate to cause the transactions






contemplated by this Agreement and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company and acquisitions of equity securities of Parent (including derivative securities) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company or is or may become a director or executive officer of Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Each Party shall notify the other Party, in writing and promptly after acquiring knowledge thereof, of any litigation related to this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby that is brought against or, to the Knowledge of such Party, threatened against, such Party, its Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective directors or officers and shall keep the other Party informed on a reasonably current basis with respect to the status thereof. The Parties agree to cooperate in the defense and settlement of any such litigation, and the Company shall not settle any such litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Without limiting in any way the Parties’ obligations under Section 5.6, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate in the defense or settlement of any litigation contemplated by this Section 5.17.
5.18    Tax Treatment.
(a)    The Company and Parent shall each use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and cooperate with one another in obtaining an opinion from Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP (“Company’s Counsel”) or Morrison & Foerster, LLC (“Parent’s Counsel”), as provided for in Section 6.3(d), and neither shall take any action (or fail to take any action) that is reasonably likely to prevent or impede such qualification. Parent will report the Merger in a manner consistent with such qualification.
(b)    Each of the Company and Parent shall deliver to the Company’s Counsel and Parent’s counsel at such time or times as requested by the Company’s Counsel or Parent’s Counsel letters signed by an officer thereof and containing representations substantially in the form of Exhibits B and C hereto, respectively, for the purposes of obtaining a tax opinion from the Company’s Counsel to the effect that the Merger will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
5.19    Directorship. Effective as of the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the board of directors of Parent to consist of eleven (11) members. Parent shall appoint two (2) individuals who are currently members of the Company Board to serve on the board of directors of Parent, to be mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company.






5.20    Financing.
(a)    Parent shall use its, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to use their, reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and obtain the Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions (including the market “flex” provisions) set forth in the Commitment Papers contemporaneously with the Closing, including by using its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Papers, (ii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Financing (the “Definitive Agreements”) consistent with the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Papers and (iii) satisfy on or prior to the Closing Date all conditions in the Commitment Papers and the Definitive Agreements and comply with its obligations thereunder. In the event that all conditions contained in the Commitment Papers or the Definitive Agreements (other than the consummation of the Merger and other than those that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to in all material respects enforce its rights under the Commitment Papers, including using reasonable best efforts to cause the Lenders to comply with their respective obligations thereunder, including to fund the Financing. Parent shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, permit any termination of or amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, or grant any waiver of any provision under, the Commitment Papers if such termination, amendment, supplement, modification or waiver would (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing to an amount that, when combined with cash of the Parent, would not be sufficient to consummate the Refinancing, (B) impose new or additional conditions precedent to the availability of the Financing or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions precedent to the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede or delay the funding of the Financing, (C) adversely impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Papers or (D) would otherwise reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede or delay the funding of the Financing. Parent shall promptly deliver to the Company true and complete copies of any amendment, modification, supplement, consent or waiver to or under any Commitment Papers promptly upon execution thereof.
(b)    Parent shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably prompt basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall give the Company prompt written notice of (i) any actual or threatened breach, default, termination, cancellation or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Papers and the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Financing Source with respect to any breach, default, termination, cancellation or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Papers, or (ii) the occurrence of an event or development that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ability of Parent to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the Closing Date to the extent necessary to fund the Refinancing. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Company delivers to Parent a written request, Parent shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding sentence. If the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any applicable market “flex” provisions) contemplated by the Commitment Papers (other than solely as a result of Company’s material






breach of any covenant in this Section 5.20), Parent shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, in replacement thereof alternative financing (the “Alternative Financing”) in an amount, when combined with cash on hand of Parent, sufficient to consummate the Refinancing with terms and conditions (including market “flex” provisions) not less favorable to Parent (or its Affiliates) than the terms and conditions set forth in the Commitment Papers and (ii) promptly notify the Company of such unavailability and the reason therefor. Upon any amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or replacement of the Commitment Papers in accordance with the terms hereof (including upon the execution of any commitment letter or fee letter in respect of any Alternative Financing), the terms “Financing”, “Commitment Letter”; Fee Letter” and “Commitment Papers” shall mean the applicable Financing, Commitment Letters, Fee Letters and Commitment Papers as so amended, supplemented, modified, waived or replaced, and Parent shall deliver to the Company true and complete copies of the alternative debt financing letters (including fee letters that shall have fee or related information redacted in a manner consistent with the Fee Letter delivered as of the date of this Agreement). The foregoing notwithstanding, compliance by Parent with this Section 5.20 shall not relieve Parent of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available.
(c)    Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to provide, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective officers, employees and advisors to provide, to Parent, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, such reasonable cooperation as is customary and reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of the Financing, including using its reasonable best efforts to:
(i)    as promptly as reasonably practicable, furnish Parent with the Required Information;
(ii)    upon reasonable advance notice, cause senior management of the Company to participate in a reasonable number of investor and lender meetings and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Financing at reasonable times and locations mutually agreed, and assist Parent in obtaining ratings in connection with the Financing;
(iii)    assist Parent with the preparation by Parent and the Lender Related Parties of, and use reasonable best efforts to provide, customary information about the Company necessary for the preparation of, materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda, lender presentations, syndication memoranda and similar marketing materials, memoranda or documents, and due diligence memoranda and schedules to definitive financing documentation, in each case to the extent, and solely to the extent, such materials relate to information concerning the Company and the Company Subsidiaries;

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Willful Breach” means a deliberate act or a deliberate failure to act, taken or not taken with the actual knowledge that such act or failure to act would, or would reasonably be expected to, result in or constitute a material breach of this Agreement, regardless of whether breaching was the object of the act or failure to act.

(b)    Each Party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.7 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, no Party would have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company fails to pay promptly the amount due pursuant to Section 7.5 or Parent fails to pay promptly the amount due pursuant to Section 7.6 (any such amount due, a “Payment”), and, in order to obtain such Payment, the Party entitled to receive such Payment (the “Recipient”) commences a suit which results in a judgment against the Party obligated to make such Payment (the “Payor”) for the applicable Payment, or any portion thereof, the Payor shall pay to the Recipient its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the Payment at the prime rate in effect on the date such Payment was required to be paid from such date through the date of full payment thereof.
(c)     The Parties agree that the monetary remedies set forth in this Article VII and the specific performance remedies set forth in Section 8.14 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of (i) the Company and the Company Subsidiaries against Parent, Merger Sub and any






of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Financing Sources (including the Lender Related Parties), Representatives or Affiliates for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger to be consummated except in the case of fraud or a Willful Breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation (in which case only Parent shall be liable for damages for such fraud or Willful Breach), and upon payment of such amount, none of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Financing Sources (including the Lender Related Parties), Representatives or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for the liability of Parent in the case of fraud or a Willful Breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation; and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub against the Company and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Representatives or Affiliates for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated except in the case of fraud or a Willful Breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation (in which case only the Company shall be liable for damages for such fraud or Willful Breach), and upon payment of such amount, none of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Representatives or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for the liability of the Company in the case of fraud or a Willful Breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation.
