Article 2
The Mergers

Section 2.01. The Mergers. (a) At the Effective Time, Merger I shall be effected pursuant to which Merger Sub I will be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the DGCL, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub I shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Initial Surviving Entity”).

(b) Immediately following the Effective Time and at the Subsequent Effective Time, Merger II shall be effected pursuant to which the Initial Surviving Entity shall be merged with and into Merger Sub II in accordance with the DGCL and the DLLCA, whereupon the separate existence of the Initial Surviving Entity shall cease, and Merger Sub II shall be the surviving company (the “Surviving Entity”) and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent.

(c) Subject to the provisions of ‎Article 9, the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”) shall take place in New York City at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, 450 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York, 10017 as soon as possible, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after the date the conditions set forth in ‎Article 9 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent

permissible, waiver of those conditions at the Closing) have been satisfied or, to the extent permissible, waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefit of such conditions, or at such other place, at such other time or on such other date as Parent and the Company may mutually agree (such date of Closing, the “Closing Date”).

(d) At the Closing, the Company and Merger Sub I shall file a certificate of merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL in connection with Merger I, and the Initial Surviving Entity and Merger Sub II shall file a certificate of merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL and the DLLCA in connection with Merger II. Merger I shall become effective at such time (the “Effective Time”) as the certificate of merger with respect to Merger I is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as may be specified in such certificate of merger). Merger II shall become effective immediately following the Effective Time at such time (the “Subsequent Effective Time”) as the certificate of merger with respect to Merger II is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as may be agreed to by the parties and specified in such certificate of merger).

(e) From and after the Effective Time, and until the Subsequent Effective Time, the Initial Surviving Entity shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of the Company and Merger Sub I, all as provided under the DGCL. From and after the Subsequent Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of the Initial Surviving Entity and Merger Sub II, all as provided under the DGCL and the DLLCA.

Section 2.02. Conversion of Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, as a result of Merger I and without any action on the part of the holder of any capital stock of the Company, Parent or either Merger Sub, except as otherwise provided in ‎Section 2.02(c) or ‎Section 2.05, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the following consideration, without interest thereon (the “Merger Consideration”):

(i) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive a combination of stock and cash (a “Mixed Election”) has been properly made and not revoked pursuant to ‎Section 2.03(c) (each, a “Mixed Consideration Electing Share”) and each Non-Electing Share shall be converted into the right to receive (A) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Mixed Election Stock Consideration”) equal to the product (rounded to the nearest four decimal places) of (w) the Exchange Ratio and (x) 0.50 and (B) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product (rounded to the nearest two decimal places) of (y) the Per Share Price and (z) 0.50 (the “Mixed Election Cash Consideration” and, together with the Mixed Election Stock Consideration, the “Mixed Election Consideration”);

(ii) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive cash (a “Cash Election”) has been properly made and not revoked pursuant

to ‎Section 2.03(c) (each, a “Cash Electing Share”) shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Per Share Price; provided that if the product of the number of Cash Electing Shares and the Per Share Price (such product, the “Aggregate Cash Election Amount”) exceeds the Available Cash Election Amount, then each Cash Electing Share shall be converted into the right to receive (1) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product (rounded to the nearest two decimal places) of (w) the Per Share Price and (x) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Available Cash Election Amount and the denominator of which shall be the Aggregate Cash Election Amount (such amount of cash, the “Cash Portion”) and (2) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to a fraction (rounded to the nearest four decimal places), the numerator of which shall be an amount equal to the Per Share Price minus the Cash Portion and the denominator of which shall be the Parent Share Price; and

(iii) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive stock consideration (a “Stock Election”) has been properly made and not revoked pursuant to ‎Section 2.03(c) (each, a “Stock Electing Share”) shall be converted into the right to receive a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (the “Stock Election Consideration”); provided that if the Available Cash Election Amount exceeds the Aggregate Cash Election Amount, then each Stock Electing Share shall be converted into the right to receive (x) an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest two decimal places), without interest, equal to (1) the amount by which the Available Cash Election Amount exceeds the Aggregate Cash Election Amount, divided by (2) the number of Stock Electing Shares (such amount of cash, the “Cash Substitution Amount”) and (y) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded to the nearest four decimal places) obtained by dividing (a) an amount equal to the Per Share Price minus the Cash Substitution Amount by (b) the Parent Share Price.

(iv) At the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and (A) each Certificate formerly representing any of the shares of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) and (B) each book-entry account formerly representing any 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 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to ‎Section 2.07, without interest, in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with ‎Section 2.04, in the case of certificated shares of Company Common Stock, and automatically in the case of Uncertificated Shares, and each Certificate and Uncertificated Share formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock owned by Dissenting Shareholders shall thereafter represent only the rights granted to Dissenting Shareholders under Delaware Law.

(v) Maximum Merger Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt:

(A) Subject to ‎Section 2.13, the Mixed Election Cash Consideration shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Per Share Price; and

(B) The aggregate amount of cash paid (not including cash paid pursuant to ‎Section 2.07), and the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock issued, to all of the holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to this ‎Section 2.02(a) shall not exceed the aggregate amount of cash that would have been paid (not including cash that would have been paid pursuant to ‎Section 2.07), and the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock that would have been issued, to all of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock had the Mixed Election been made with respect to each share of Company Common Stock.

(vi) The term “Available Cash Election Amount” means the difference between (1) the product of the Mixed Election Cash Consideration and the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares) minus (2) the product of the number of Mixed Consideration Electing Shares (including any Non-Electing Shares and Dissenting Shares) and the Mixed Election Cash Consideration.

(b) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Divested Revenues” means the revenues generated during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as determined in accordance with ‎Section 2.12, by any title plants, rights to title plants, businesses or assets that are sold, divested, disposed or held separate, or that are agreed to be sold, divested, disposed or held separate, in a Triggering Divestiture, subject to the following:

(i) for purposes of determining the amount of Divested Revenues, no title insurance premium revenues arising from title plants or rights to title plants that are required to be (A) licensed to a third party for which Parent will, after such licensure, or conveyance or transfer of such title plant interest (or copy thereof), continue to own the underlying title plants or rights to title plants that are licensed will be included in Divested Revenues (provided that in the event that the Parent or Company is required to license an interest in any such title plant or right to title plant that is a jointly owned title plant whose governing documents would, after such licensure, or conveyance or transfer of such title plant interest (or copy thereof), prohibit Parent from using title plant data from such title plant to serve any of the Company’s existing brands, the lost title insurance premium revenues arising therefrom shall not be deemed excluded from Divested Revenues by virtue of this clause (A) (but subject to clause (B)), or (B) divested or licensed to a third party will be included in Divested Revenues if Parent is able, or would be able, through the use of commercially reasonable efforts, to procure prior to the Closing an alternative, competitively comparable, title plant or source of title plant data in such county (including, but not limited to, the licensure of title plant or title plant data from a third party at Parent’s reasonable expense) in order to prevent the loss of title insurance premium revenues from such title plant license or divestiture;

(ii) if Parent is required to, or reasonably expected to be required to, sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate any business, asset or title plant in a county in which both the Company and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries, on the other, own a competing business, asset or title plant (as applicable), whether in whole or in part, then the Divested Revenues that shall be deemed to be generated from the business, asset or title plant to be sold, divested, disposed of, licensed or held separate in such county shall be the revenues generated in respect of the applicable business, asset or title plant (as applicable) with the lower amount of consolidated revenue as between the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent and its Subsidiaries, on the other, irrespective of which business, asset or title plant that Parent elects to sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate in such county; provided that if the FTC or any other Governmental Authority requires that Parent sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate the business, asset or title plant in such county with the higher amount of consolidated revenues (as between the Company and Parent), then such higher amount of consolidated revenues shall constitute the Divested Revenues for such business, asset or title plant sold, divested, disposed or held separate; and

(iii) if the FTC or any other Governmental Authority requires that Parent or the Company sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate a title plant within a given county in which one of the Company or Parent utilizes a wholly owned title plant and the other utilizes a jointly owned title plant, Parent shall have the right to determine whether to sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate the jointly owned title plant or the wholly owned title plant; provided that the Divested Revenues that shall be deemed to be generated from such title plant sold, divested, disposed or held separate shall be the revenues generated in respect of the applicable title plant with the lower amount of consolidated revenue as between the wholly owned and jointly owned title plant, irrespective of which title plant Parent elects to divest sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate; provided, further, that if the FTC or any other Governmental Authority requires that Parent sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate the title plant in such county with the higher amount of consolidated revenues (as between the wholly owned and jointly owned title plant), then such higher amount of consolidated revenues shall constitute the Divested Revenues for such title plant sold, divested, disposed or held separate.

“Exchange Ratio” means the quotient (rounded to the nearest four decimal places) obtained by dividing (a) the Per Share Price by (b) the Parent Share Price, which, if the Per Share Price equals $50.00, the parties agree shall be 1.2850, subject to further adjustment pursuant to this ‎Section 2.02.

“Parent Share Price” means an amount equal to the 20-Day VWAP of the Parent Common Stock as of the date hereof, which the parties agree shall be $38.91.

“Per Share Price” means an amount equal to the greater of (i) (x) $50.00 minus (y) the Per Share Cash Reduction Amount and (ii) $45.50.

“Per Share Cash Reduction Amount” means an amount in cash equal to the lesser of (i) $4.50, multiplied by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the amount by which the Divested Revenues exceeds $75,000,000 and (y) the denominator of which is $150,000,000 and (ii) $4.50. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Divested Revenues are $75,000,000 or less, the Per Share Cash Reduction Amount shall be equal to zero.

“20-Day VWAP” means the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of a share of Parent Common Stock for each of the twenty trading days prior to the date hereof, on the NYSE, as reported by Bloomberg.

(c) Each share of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or held by any Subsidiary of the Company (other than shares in a Company Employee Plan), or owned by Parent, the Merger Subs or any other Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such share, an “Excluded Share”) shall be cancelled, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(d) Each share of common stock of Merger Sub I outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Initial Surviving Entity with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Initial Surviving Entity. Each share of common stock of the Initial Surviving Entity outstanding immediately prior to the Subsequent Effective Time shall be converted into and become a membership interest in the Surviving Entity with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding membership interests in the Surviving Entity.

Section 2.03. Election Procedures.

(a) Election Procedures. Subject to allocation and adjustment in accordance with the provisions of this Article 2, each record holder of shares of Company Common Stock (other than (i) any Dissenting Shares, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.05, (ii) any Company Equity Awards, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.06, and (iii) Excluded Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Election Deadline shall be entitled to specify the number of such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock with respect to which such holder makes a Mixed Election, Cash Election or Stock Election by complying with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.03.

(b) Form of Election and Election Deadline. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint an agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of tabulating elections pursuant to ‎Section 2.03(a) and exchanging for the Merger Consideration as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time pursuant to ‎Section 2.04 (i) certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) or (ii) uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (the “Uncertificated Shares”). Holders of shares of Company Common Stock shall make a Mixed Election, a Cash Election or a Stock Election on a form of election (a “Form of Election”), prepared by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company and filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the form of Election and such Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which shall have such other customary provisions as Parent and the Company reasonably agree, to be provided by the Exchange Agent for that purpose to holders of record of shares of Company Common Stock (other than (i) any Dissenting Shares, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.05, (ii) any Company Equity Awards, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.06, and (iii) Excluded Shares), together with customary transmittal materials. Elections shall be made by mailing to the Exchange Agent a duly completed Form of Election. To be effective,

a Form of Election must be properly completed, signed and submitted to the Exchange Agent at its designated office by 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Business Day that is two (2) trading days prior to the Closing Date (which date shall be publicly announced by Parent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing) or such other date and time as Parent may publicly announce with the consent of the Company (the applicable date and time described in this clause (x), the “Election Deadline”). The parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to make a Form of Election available to all Persons who become holders of record of shares of Company Common Stock (other than (i) any Dissenting Shares, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.05, (ii) any Company Equity Awards, all of which shall be treated solely as provided in ‎Section 2.06 and (iii) Excluded Shares) between the date the Forms of Election are mailed and the Election Deadline. Parent shall determine, in its reasonable discretion (which discretion and authority it may delegate in whole or in part to the Exchange Agent), whether Forms of Election (and where applicable, appropriate transmittal materials) have been properly completed, signed and submitted or revoked. The decision of Parent (or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be) in such matters shall be conclusive and binding. In the event that a holder fails to make a Mixed Election, a Cash Election or a Stock Election with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock held or beneficially owned by such holder, then such holder shall be deemed to have made a Mixed Election with respect to those shares of Company Common Stock (each such share of Company Common Stock, a “Non-Electing Share”). After a Mixed Election, a Cash Election or a Stock Election is validly made with respect to a holder’s shares of Company Common Stock, any further registration of transfers of such shares made on the stock transfer books of the Company following such election shall be deemed to be a revocation of such election.

(c) Revocation of Election. Any Mixed Election, Cash Election or Stock Election may be revoked, but only (subject to the last sentence of ‎Section 2.03(b)) by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. In addition, all Mixed Elections, Cash Elections and Stock Elections shall automatically be revoked if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 10. Any Certificate(s) representing shares of Company Common Stock that have been submitted to the Exchange Agent in connection with an election shall be returned without charge to the holder thereof in the event such election is revoked as aforesaid and such holder requests in writing the return of such Certificate(s) or Uncertificated Shares. Upon any such revocation, unless a duly completed Form of Election is thereafter submitted prior to the Election Deadline in accordance with ‎Section 2.03(a) and ‎Section 2.03(b), the shares of Company Common Stock to which such election previously applied shall be treated as Non-Electing Shares.

Section 2.04. Surrender and Payment. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent the Merger Consideration to be paid and/or issued in respect of the Certificates and the Uncertificated Shares. In addition, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, any distributions or dividends payable pursuant to Section 2.04(h) with respect to shares of Company Common Stock with a record and payment date after the Effective Time and prior to the surrender of such shares of Company Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to this Section 2.04. All shares of Parent Common Stock and cash, together with the amount of any dividends and distributions deposited with the Exchange

Agent pursuant to this Section 2.04, shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund”. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the Merger Consideration and other payments contemplated by this ‎Article 2 out of the Exchange Fund.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (but no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each holder of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares, Dissenting Shares or any holder of a Certificate who properly made and did not revoke a Mixed Election, Cash Election or a Stock Election) a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange.

(c) Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who properly made and did not revoke a Mixed Election, Cash Election or a Stock Election shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the applicable Merger Consideration in respect of the Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to ‎Section 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Company Common Stock payable pursuant to ‎Section 2.07, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each such Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration. Each holder of a Certificate representing Non-Electing Shares, upon surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.11) to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of such transmittal materials, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Mixed Election Consideration for each Non-Electing Share formerly represented by such Certificate, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to ‎Section 2.07, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(d) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration and other payments provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this ‎Article 2.

(f) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to ‎Section 2.04(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this ‎Section 2.04 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration, any dividends and distributions with respect thereto pursuant to ‎Section 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Company Common Stock payable pursuant to ‎Section 2.07, in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amounts properly paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

(g) Subject to ‎Section 2.04(d)(ii), the payment of any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the Mergers, and the filing of any related Tax returns and other documentation with respect to such Taxes and fees, shall be borne by the Parent or the Surviving Entity.

(h) No dividends or other distributions with respect to securities of Parent constituting part of the Merger Consideration, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares as provided in ‎Section 2.07, shall be paid to the holder of any Certificates not surrendered or of any Uncertificated Shares not transferred until such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 2.04.

(c) Each Company RSU issued pursuant to a grant approved by the Board of Directors following the date hereof in accordance with Section 6.01(c) (each, a “Rollover RSU”) and which is outstanding at the Effective Time shall be assumed and converted into a restricted stock unit relating to shares of Parent Common Stock (a “Parent RSU”) entitling the holder to receive, on substantially the same terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting) as were applicable under such Rollover RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Rollover RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares being rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock.

(d) Each restricted share of Company Common Stock outstanding under any Company Stock Plan that vests based on the achievement of performance goals (each, a “Company PSA”), and which is outstanding at the Effective Time shall immediately vest and shall, in accordance with ‎Section 2.02(a)(i) hereof, be converted into the right to receive, with respect to each restricted share of Company Common Stock (determined assuming the achievement of target level of performance) by virtue of Merger I and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the Mixed Election Consideration.

(e) Each restricted stock unit award with respect to shares of Company Common Stock outstanding under any Company Stock Plan that vests based on the achievement of performance goals (each, a “Company PSU” and together with each Company RSA, Company PSA and Company RSU, the “Company Equity Awards”), other than the Rollover PSUs (as defined below), and which is outstanding at the Effective Time shall immediately vest and shall be converted into the right to receive, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Company PSU (determined assuming the achievement of target level of performance), by virtue of Merger I and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the

Mixed Election Consideration; provided that with respect to any Company PSU that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and that is not permitted to be paid at the Effective Time without triggering a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code shall be made at the earliest time permitted under the applicable Company Stock Plan and award agreement that will not trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code.

(f) Each Company PSU issued pursuant to a grant approved by the Board of Directors following the date hereof in accordance with Section 6.01(c) (each, a “Rollover PSU”) and which is outstanding at the Effective Time shall be assumed and converted into a restricted stock unit relating to shares of Parent Common Stock (a “Parent PSU”) entitling the holder to receive, determined assuming achievement of target level of performance and subject to continued vesting based on the passage of time through the end of the performance period, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Rollover PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares being rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock.

Section 2.07. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in the Mergers. All fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that a holder of shares of Company Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Mergers shall be aggregated and if a fractional share results from such aggregation, such holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash without interest determined by multiplying the closing sale price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the NYSE on the trading day immediately preceding the Effective Time by the fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled.

Section 2.08. Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Surviving Entity and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this ‎Article 2 such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law. If the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Surviving Entity or Parent, as the case may be, so withholds and remits amounts to the applicable Taxing Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this

Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Surviving Entity or Parent, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding. For the avoidance of doubt, any deductions or withholdings made from Mixed Election Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be made in cash and deducted or withheld from the Mixed Election Cash Consideration portion payable upon such Mixed Election.

Section 2.09. Payment of Company Equity Awards. Parent shall take all actions necessary so that, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but no later than the later of five (5) Business Days after, and the first regularly scheduled payroll date for the Company after, the Effective Time), the Surviving Entity shall pay or cause to be paid to each holder of a Company Equity Award the amounts to which such holder is entitled as determined in accordance with ‎Section 2.06 (less applicable tax withholding), to the extent permitted thereby. In the event that the Surviving Entity has insufficient cash to make such payment to each holder of Company Equity Awards, Parent shall pay such amounts or provide to the Surviving Entity sufficient cash to pay such amounts.

Section 2.10. Lost Certificates. If 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 the Surviving Entity, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Entity 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 Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this ‎Article 2.

Section 2.11. Determination of Divested Revenues.

(a) Prior to Closing and promptly following the final determination of the businesses, assets, title plants or rights to title plants, if any, that are required to be divested, Parent shall reasonably determine the Divested Revenues and shall provide the Company with a “Divested Revenues Notice” setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of the amount representing Divested Revenues, together with a breakdown of Divested Revenues that specifies (i) the amount of Divested Revenues generated by each such business, asset, title plant or right to title plant that is to be divested and (ii) the amount of revenues generated by each competitive business, asset, title plant or right to title plant during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (i.e., as between the Company and Parent) that is to be retained.

(b) In the event that the Company wishes to dispute any amount proposed by Parent in the Divested Revenues Notice, the Company shall provide Parent with written notice of such dispute (the “Divested Revenues Dispute Notice”) no later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Divested Revenues Notice.

(c) During the three (3) Business Days following receipt by Parent of the Divested Revenues Dispute Notice, representatives of Parent and the Company shall negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving any items in dispute so raised by the Company pursuant to the Divested Revenues Dispute Notice.

(d) In the event that the Company and Parent cannot resolve all such objections within such three (3) Business Day period set forth in ‎Section 2.11(c), the parties shall jointly retain a mutually acceptable nationally recognized accounting firm that is independent from, and has not been retained as the principal audit firm in the prior three (3) years by, the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates (the “Independent Accountant”), to resolve the remaining business- or county-level items in dispute in accordance with this Agreement. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the objections submitted to it, and with respect to each, shall not assign any value for each line item that is greater than the highest value for such amount claimed by either the Company or Parent or that is less than the lowest value for such amount claimed by either the Company or Parent. The Independent Accountant shall base its decision solely upon the presentations of the parties to the Independent Accountant at a hearing held before the Independent Accountant and upon any materials made available by either party and not upon independent review. The Independent Accountant’s fees and expenses shall be split evenly between the Company and Parent. The parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Independent Accountant to make its determination as promptly as possible and in any event within thirty (30) days after the Independent Accountant has been retained, including by promptly complying with all reasonable requests for information, books, records and similar items. Each of the Company and Parent shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountant any materials related to the disputed objections and to discuss the determination thereof with the Independent Accountant. The determination of the Independent Accountant shall be conclusive and binding on the parties.

Section 2.12. Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 2.13. Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. In the event that the Company changes the number of shares of Company Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any such shares of Company Common Stock, or Parent changes the number of shares of Parent Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any such shares of 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.

Section 2.14. Uncertificated Shares. No holder of Uncertificated Shares shall be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to ‎Section 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.07 that such holder is entitled to receive. In lieu thereof, each registered holder of one or more Uncertificated Shares shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the applicable Merger Consideration, any dividends or other

distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.04(h) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.07 each Uncertificated Share.

Section 6.02. Company Stockholder Meeting. The Company shall cause a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) to be duly called and held as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the 1933 Act) for the purpose of voting on the approval and

adoption of this Agreement and the Mergers. Subject to ‎Section 6.03, the Board of Directors shall (i) recommend approval and adoption of this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby by the Company’s stockholders, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval and (iii) otherwise comply with all legal requirements applicable to such meeting. The Company may, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting, after consultation with Parent, if the Company believes in good faith that such adjournment or postponement is reasonably necessary to allow reasonable additional time to (x) solicit additional proxies necessary to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, or (y) distribute any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement that the Board of Directors has determined in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel is necessary under Applicable Laws and for such supplement or amendment to be reviewed by the Company’s shareholders prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting.

Section 6.03. No Solicitation; Other Offers. (a) General Prohibitions. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts not to permit any of its or their officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, consultants or other agents or advisors (“Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly take any action to knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage the submission of any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, furnish any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, or otherwise knowingly cooperate in any way with any Third Party that is seeking to make, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation (or publicly approve, publicly endorse or recommend an Acquisition Proposal) (any of the foregoing in this clause ‎(iii), an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (iv) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar instrument relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Any breach of this ‎Section 6.03 by the Company’s officers or directors or any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives acting at the direction of an officer or director of the Company (and, for the avoidance of doubt, only a breach by such persons) shall be deemed a breach by the Company.

(b) Exceptions.

(i) Notwithstanding ‎Section 6.03(a), if after the date of this Agreement, but prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, the Company receives a bona fide Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach by the Company of ‎Section 6.03(a), which the Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors, constitutes or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, the Company may: (A) engage in negotiations or discussions with such Third Party and its Representatives with respect to such Acquisition Proposal and (B) furnish to such Third Party or its Representatives non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with confidentiality obligations no less favorable to the

Company than those contained in the confidentiality agreement dated October 4, 2017 between the Company and Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”); provided that all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is provided or made available to Parent, as the case may be, prior to or substantially concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such Third Party; provided, however, that the Company shall provide written notice to Parent as soon as reasonably practicable before taking any of the actions described in clauses “‎(A)” and “‎(B)” above.

(ii) Notwithstanding ‎Section 6.03(a), at any time after the date of this Agreement but prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, the Board of Directors may: (A) make an Adverse Recommendation Change only in response to (I) the Company receiving a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal that did not arise from a material breach by the Company of ‎Section 6.03(a) of this Agreement or (II) an Intervening Event; or (B) if the Company has complied in all material respects with ‎Section 6.03(c), cause the Company to terminate this Agreement and, substantially concurrently with, and as a condition to such termination, cause the Company to enter into a definitive written agreement providing for such Superior Proposal, if and only if, in each case of clauses “‎(A)” and “‎(B)” above, (x) the Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consulting with and receiving advice from outside counsel, that the failure to (1) effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or (2) terminate this Agreement and enter into a definitive written agreement providing for a Superior Proposal, in each case, would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under the DGCL and (y) the Company complies with the provisions of ‎Section 6.03(c) in all material respects.

In addition, nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board of Directors from (i) complying with Rule 14e-2(a) under the 1934 Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal or (ii) issuing a “stop, look and listen” disclosure or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the 1934 Act; provided, however, that with respect to the foregoing clause (i), any such action taken or statement or disclosure made that relates to an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Board of Directors reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such statement or disclosure or in connection with such action.

(i) Subject to ‎Section 6.03(c)(ii), no Adverse Recommendation Change may be made in response to a Superior Proposal or Intervening Event and no termination of this Agreement in accordance with ‎Section 6.03(b)(ii) may be made: (A) until the fourth (4th) Business Day following Parent’s receipt of written notice from the Company advising Parent that the Board of Directors intends to, as applicable, make such Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement in accordance with ‎Section 6.03(b)(ii) (each, a “Company Board Recommendation Notice”), which notice shall specify (1) in the case of such an action taken in connection with a Superior Proposal, the terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the Person making such Superior Proposal and a copy of the then-current forms of all of the relevant

proposed transaction documents related thereto, including definitive agreements with respect to such Superior Proposal) or (2) if the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Directors is an Intervening Event, a reasonably detailed description of the Intervening Event (it being understood and agreed that the delivery of a Company Board Recommendation Notice shall not, in and of itself, constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change); and (B) unless the Company shall have, (x) during the four (4) Business Day period specified above (and any additional period related to a revision to the Superior Proposal, as provided in ‎Section 6.03(c)(ii)), negotiated, and directed the Company’s financial advisors and legal counsel to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent indicates in writing to the Company that Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to proposed adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement agreed to be made in writing by Parent so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal (or, in the case of a Company Board Recommendation Notice that is related to an Intervening Event, so that the failure to make such Adverse Recommendation Change would no longer be reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Board of Directors’ fiduciary duties under the DGCL) and no such agreement is reached and (y) substantially concurrently with the termination of this Agreement pursuant to ‎Section 6.03(b)(ii), pay the Termination Fee as forth in ‎Section 11.04(b)(i)(A).

(ii) The parties agree that, in the case of such actions taken in connection with a Superior Proposal, any material amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Company Board Recommendation Notice and an additional two (2) Business Day period (the period inclusive of all such days, the “Notice Period”). The Company agrees that the Company shall take into account all changes to the terms of this Agreement agreed to be made in writing by Parent in determining whether such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal. The Company shall promptly keep Parent informed of all material developments affecting the material terms of any such Superior Proposal (and the Company shall provide Parent with copies of any additional relevant proposed transaction documents related thereto).

(iii) The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in any event within twenty four (24) hours) of the receipt of any written Acquisition Proposal and a summary of the material terms and conditions thereof but excluding the identity of the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt and timely basis of the status and material details of any such Acquisition Proposal and with respect to any material change to the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal within twenty four (24) hours of such material change.

(d) Definition of Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited Acquisition Proposal for more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on terms that the Board of Directors determines in good faith by a majority vote, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, are more favorable to the Company’s stockholders from a

financial point of view than as provided hereunder, taking into account the relevant legal, financial and regulatory aspects of such Acquisition Proposal and all other relevant factors, and any changes to the terms of this Agreement that as of that time had been agreed to be made in writing by Parent in response to such Acquisition Proposal as contemplated by ‎Section 6.03(c).

(e) Obligation to Terminate Existing Discussions. Subject to the other provisions of this ‎Section 6.03, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any Third Party and its Representatives conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

Section 6.04. Access to Information. From the date hereof until the Effective Time and subject to Applicable Law and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall (i) give to Parent and its Representatives, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access to the offices, properties, books and records and the executive team (and an integration team of employees designated by the executive team) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) furnish to Parent and its Representatives such financial and operating data in the Company’s possession as such Persons may reasonably request, (iii) instruct its Representatives to cooperate reasonably with Parent in its investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (iv) provide Parent with reasonable notice of and the opportunity to participate jointly with the Company in the employee/town hall meetings in connection with the Mergers set forth on ‎Section 6.04 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and (v) provide Parent with reasonable notice of and the opportunity to participate jointly with the Company in customer calls that are requested by the Company’s customers in connection with the Mergers. Any investigation pursuant to this ‎Section 6.04 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this ‎Section 6.04 shall require the Company to provide any access, or to disclose any information (A) if providing such access or disclosing such information would violate any Applicable Law (including Antitrust Law and privacy laws) or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement or (B) protected by attorney-client privilege to the extent such privilege cannot be protected by the Company through exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts. In the event that the Company does not provide access or information in reliance on the preceding sentence, it shall use its reasonable best efforts to communicate the applicable information to Parent in a way that would not violate the foregoing restrictions, including by providing such information in redacted form as necessary to preserve such a privilege or comply with such Law or otherwise make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements, to the extent reasonably practicable. All information exchanged pursuant to this ‎Section 6.04 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 6.05. Transaction Committee. From the date hereof until the Effective Time, a committee of the Board of Directors (the “Transaction Committee”) initially comprised of those members of the Board of Directors set forth on Section 6.05 of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be responsible for overseeing (i) actions taken by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with obtaining the Required Antitrust Regulatory Filings/Approvals and the Required Insurance Regulatory Filings/Approvals, (ii) the administration of the

Retention Plan, (iii) the performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and (iv) all other actions taken by the Company and its Subsidiaries in furtherance of completing the Mergers (collectively, the “Specified Transaction Matters”). The Transaction Committee shall initially designate John Killea, Matthew Morris, David Hisey and Ann Manal as the Company executives responsible for execution of the Specified Transaction Matters, and Messrs. Killea, Morris and Hisey and Ms. Manal shall report directly to the Transaction Committee with respect to such Specified Transaction Matters. In the event that a senior executive of Parent desires to discuss any issue or matter arising from or related to the Specified Transaction Matters with the Company, they should consider Messrs. Killea, Morris and Hisey and Ms. Manal to be the designated contact persons of the Company for the purposes of discussing any such issues or matters; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not relieve any of Parent, the Merger Subs or the Company from any obligation to provide any notice otherwise required by this Agreement in accordance with ‎Section 11.01.

Section 6.06. Retention Plan. Within fifteen (15) days following the date hereof, the Company shall develop, in consultation with Parent, a cash retention plan with an aggregate value of $12–15 million (the “Retention Plan”) to be allocated to the Company’s top business producers and other key personnel (in each case, as selected by the Company in consultation with Parent), such that fifty percent (50%) of the payments to be made to individuals under the Retention Plan shall be paid as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date and the remaining fifty percent (50%) shall be paid on the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date (or as promptly as practicable thereafter).

If the Company or the Surviving Entity for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Subsequent Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall continue to maintain in effect, for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Subsequent Effective Time, the D&O Insurance in place as of the Subsequent Effective Time with the Company’s current insurance carrier or with an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies as of the Subsequent Effective Time, or the Surviving Entity shall purchase from the Company’s current insurance carrier or from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance comparable D&O Insurance for such six (6)-year period with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the Subsequent Effective Time; provided that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Entity be required to expend for such policies pursuant to this sentence an annual premium amount in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the premium

amount per annum for the Company’s existing policies; and provided, further, that if the aggregate premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Entity shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Subsequent Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount.

Parent agrees to cause the Parent 401(k) Plan to accept, in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of the Parent 401(k) Plan, a “direct rollover” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) of his or her account balances (including earnings thereon through the date of transfer and promissory notes evidencing all outstanding loans) under the Company’s 401(k) plan, provided that the Company provides (or causes to be provided) such information as reasonably requested by the administrator of the Parent 401(k) Plan to administer any such rolled over loans.

(d) With respect to any health and welfare plan maintained by Parent or its Affiliates in which any Continuing Employee is eligible to participate at or after the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Entity) to, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive, or cause to be waived, preexisting conditions, limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods with respect to participation by and coverage of each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) and (ii) recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Closing.

(e) Nothing in this ‎Section 7.05, express or implied, (i) is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, including any current or former Company Employee or any other consultant, independent contractor or other service provider, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any right to employment or continued employment), (ii) shall establish or constitute an amendment, termination or modification of, or an undertaking to establish, amend, terminate or modify, any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (iii) shall alter or limit the ability of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (or, following the Subsequent Effective Time, the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries) to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees to (i) (A) make or cause to be made an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable after the date hereof (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days unless otherwise agreed in writing), and to make, or cause to be made, the filings and authorizations, if any, required under any other Antitrust Laws as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act (including pursuant to any second request) or such other Antitrust Laws and to take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary, proper or advisable consistent with this ‎Section 8.01 to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods, or receipt of required authorizations, as applicable, under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws as soon as practicable and (B) not acquire (by merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock or assets or otherwise), directly or indirectly, any assets, securities, properties, or businesses, enter into any licensing or similar arrangements or enter into any other transaction if any such acquisition, licensing or similar arrangement or other transaction, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to adversely affect in any material respect the likelihood that the waiting period (or any extension thereof) under the HSR Act expires or is terminated or materially delayed or that any other

antitrust or insurance approval would not be obtained or materially delayed and (ii) make appropriate applications or notices required to obtain the Required Insurance Regulatory Filings/Approvals as promptly as practicable and to supply to each applicable Insurance Department as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested by any such Insurance Department in connection with any such Required Insurance Regulatory Filing/Approval. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the parties shall request and shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act.

(d) Each of the parties hereto shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in ‎Section 8.01(c) to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) take the actions set forth on Section 8.01(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, (ii) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party; (iii) subject to applicable legal limitations and the instructions of any Governmental Authority, keep the other party reasonably informed of any communication received by such party (and provide a copy of any such communication or, if such communication is oral, a summary of such communication) from, or given by such party to, the FTC, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or any other Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby; and (iv) subject to applicable legal limitations and the instructions of any Governmental Authority, provide a copy of and permit the other party to review in advance any filing or notice to be submitted in connection with a Required Insurance Regulatory Filing/Approval or written communication (provided that the parties may redact references to the value of this transaction or alternatives to this transaction) to be given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any in-person meeting or conference with, the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other person, and to the extent permitted by the FTC, the DOJ or such other applicable Governmental Authority or other person, give the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such in-person meetings or conferences.

(e) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in ‎Section 8.01(c) and ‎Section 8.01(d), if any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Applicable Law or if any suit is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by the FTC, the DOJ or any other applicable Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any Applicable Law or which would otherwise prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to (x) take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and (y) do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, including taking all such further action as may be necessary to resolve such objections, if any, as the FTC, the DOJ, state antitrust enforcement authorities, competition authorities of any other nation or other jurisdiction or Insurance Departments or commissions may assert under any Applicable Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Applicable Law that

may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the End Date), including in each case as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing or delaying the Closing beyond the End Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ‎Section 8.01 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the parties hereto understand and agree that Parent’s reasonable best efforts shall include Parent (i) entering into any settlement, undertaking, consent decree, stipulation or agreement with or required by any Governmental Authority or other Person in connection with any consent or approval required to complete or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, disposition or hold separate of businesses, product lines or assets of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries (each of the foregoing described in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Remedial Action”); provided, however that Parent’s obligations with respect to Remedial Actions pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall be limited to selling, divesting, disposing of, licensing or holding separate (A) rights to title plants and (B) businesses, product lines or assets of Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries, as required by any Governmental Authority; and provided further, however, that Parent’s obligations with respect to Remedial Actions pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall not require Parent to sell, divest, dispose of, license or hold separate: (1) title plants and rights to title plants, businesses, product lines or assets to the extent that such title plants, rights to title plants, businesses, product lines or assets generated Divested Revenues in excess of $225,000,000 in the aggregate, or (2) any of its own brands in full. Nothing in this Agreement shall require Parent or its Affiliates to (and neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries shall without the express written consent of Parent) defend through litigation any claim asserted in court or administrative or other tribunal by any Person (including any Governmental Authority) in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Legal Restraint that would prevent the Closing prior to the End Date.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, if requested by Parent, the Company shall, and shall cause any Insurance Subsidiary to, agree to or accept any Remedial Action; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall require any party hereto to take or agree to take, or cause to be taken, any Remedial Action unless the effectiveness of such Remedial Action is conditioned upon the Closing.

(g) Each of the parties hereto shall:

(i) promptly advise the other upon receiving any communication from any Governmental Authority the consent or approval of which is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that causes such party to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that any requisite Regulatory Approval will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such approval may be materially delayed; and

(ii) inform the other parties to this Agreement of, and if in writing, furnish the other parties with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the other parties orally of), any substantive communication from or to any Governmental Authority

regarding the Mergers, and permit the other parties to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with, any proposed communication or submission with any such Governmental Authority; provided, however, that Parent shall have the principal responsibility for devising and implementing the strategy for obtaining any necessary antitrust consents or approvals and shall lead and direct all submissions to, meetings and communications with any Governmental Authority or other party in connection with antitrust matters, including litigation matters with respect to any Antitrust Law; provided, however, that no party shall participate in any meeting or substantive communication with any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement and the Mergers unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate therein or thereat. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, Parent and the Company may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this ‎Section 8.01(g)(ii) as “Outside Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ‎Section 8.01, materials provided pursuant to this ‎Section 8.01 may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company and the Mergers, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns.

(h) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in ‎Section 8.01 (a), (e), (f), (g) or (h), the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with Parent to obtain each of the consents set forth on ‎Section 8.01(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided that the Company shall not be required to make payments or incur any costs or expenses, grant any concession or incur any liability in order to obtain any such consents, and the failure to obtain any such consent shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Company or relieve Parent or the Merger Subs from any of their respective obligations hereunder (including to consummate the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby).

Section 8.02. Certain Filings. (a) The Company and Parent shall reasonably cooperate with one another (i) in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement, which shall, subject to ‎Section 6.03(b), include the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) in determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required, or any actions, consents, approvals or waivers are required to be obtained from parties to any material contracts, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) in taking such actions or making any such filings, furnishing information required in connection therewith or with the Proxy Statement and seeking timely to obtain any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers.

(b) As promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement, Parent shall prepare (with the Company’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC the Registration Statement in connection with the registration under the 1933 Act of the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in Merger I. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the 1933 Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate Merger I and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the Company and Parent shall furnish all information concerning the Company and the holders of shares of Company Common Stock and Parent and the holders of Parent Common Stock, as applicable, as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

(c) The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s shareholders and Parent’s stockholders, as applicable, as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the 1933 Act and in connection with the mailing of the Form of Election.

(d) No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement will be made by Parent, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by the Company or Parent, in each case without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (other than, in each case, any filing, amendment or supplement in connection with an Adverse Change Recommendation), and each party shall consider in good faith all comments reasonably proposed by the other party. Each of the Company and Parent shall promptly provide the other with copies of all such filings, amendments or supplements to the extent not readily publicly available. Each of the Company and Parent shall furnish all information concerning such Person and its Affiliates to the other and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by such other party to be included therein and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in the preparation of the Registration Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, and the resolution of any comments to either received from the SEC. If at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement, so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Applicable Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company or the stockholders of Parent, as applicable. The parties shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of (i) all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Registration Statement, Proxy Statement or the Mergers and (ii) all orders of the SEC relating to the Registration Statement. No response to any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement will be made by either party

without providing the other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon unless pursuant to a telephone call initiated by the SEC, and each party shall consider in good faith all comments reasonably proposed by the other party. The parties will cause the Registration Statement and Proxy Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Section 8.03. Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be a press release to be reasonably agreed upon by Parent and the Company. Except in connection with press releases or other public statements made in compliance with ‎Section 6.03, none of the Company, on the one hand, or Parent, on the other hand, shall issue any public release or make any public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by Applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or Governmental Authority to which the relevant party is subject or submits, wherever situated, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow, to the extent practicable and permissible pursuant to Applicable Law, the other party or parties hereto reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance (it being understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement, as well as the timing of any such release or announcement, shall be at the final reasonable discretion of the disclosing party); provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this ‎Section 8.03 shall not apply to any release or announcement that is consistent in all material respects with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by a party hereto in accordance with this Agreement, in each case to the extent such disclosure is still accurate.

Section 8.04. Further Assurances. At and after the Subsequent Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Entity shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the Merger Subs, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the Merger Subs, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Entity any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Entity as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

Section 8.05. Notices of Certain Events. Each of the Company and Parent shall promptly notify the other of:

(a) subject to Applicable Law, any written notice or other written communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(b) any breach of this Agreement that would cause any of the closing conditions of the other party set forth in ‎Article 9 not to be satisfied.

Section 8.06. Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, each party shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act with respect to the Company and will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act.

Section 8.07. Stock Exchange De-Listing. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent to, and Parent shall take such actions reasonably required to, cause the shares of Company Common Stock to be de-listed from the NYSE and de-registered under the 1934 Act as soon as practicable following the Effective Time.

Section 8.08. Tax-Free Reorganization Representation Letters. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent, the Merger Subs and the Company shall not take any action that it knows or would reasonably be expected to know would cause the Mergers not to qualify as a 368 Reorganization.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company shall deliver to the Company’s tax counsel letters containing representations of its officers substantially in the form of Exhibits A and B hereto, respectively, for the purposes of obtaining a tax opinion from Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP to the effect that the Mergers will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a reorganization qualifying under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Code and that each of Parent and the Company will be a party to the reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code.

Section 8.09. Transaction Litigation. In the event that any stockholder litigation related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby is brought against either party or any directors or executive officers of either party after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time (the “Transaction Litigation”), such party shall promptly notify the other party of any such Transaction Litigation that such party is aware of and shall keep such other party reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall control the defense or settlement of any Transaction Litigation brought against the Company or any of its directors or executive officers; provided that the Company shall give Parent the opportunity at Parent’s expense to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such Transaction Litigation, and the Company shall not settle or agree to settle any Transaction Litigation without Parent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Section 8.10. Dividends. Each of the Company and Parent shall coordinate with the other regarding the declaration and payment of dividends in respect of Company Common Stock and Parent Common Stock and the record dates and payment dates relating thereto, it being the intention of the Company and Parent that no holder of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, for any single calendar quarter with respect to its shares of Company Common Stock, on the one hand, and shares of Parent Common Stock any holder of Company Common Stock receives pursuant to the Mergers, on the other.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided that after the Company Stockholder Approval has been obtained there shall be no amendment or waiver that would require the further approval of the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL without such approval having first been obtained.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 11.04. Expenses. (a) General. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

(b) Termination Fees.

(i) Termination Fee.

(A) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section ‎10.01(c)(i) or by the Company pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(d)(i), then the Company shall pay to Parent in immediately available funds $33,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”), in the case of a termination by Parent, within one Business Day after such termination and, in the case of a termination by the Company, immediately before and as a condition to such termination.

(B) If (1) this Agreement is terminated (A) by Parent or the Company pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(b)(i) or ‎Section 10.01(b)(iii) or by (B) Parent pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(c)(ii) as a result of a Willful Breach by the Company, (2) after the date of this Agreement and prior to such termination, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced or otherwise been communicated to the Board of Directors or its stockholders and not withdrawn and (3) within twelve (12) months following the date of such termination, (x) an Acquisition Proposal shall have been consummated or (y) a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal shall have been entered into and such Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated (provided that for purposes of this clause ‎(B), each reference to “twenty-five percent (25%)” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a reference to “fifty percent (50%)”), then the Company shall pay to Parent in immediately available funds, concurrently with the occurrence of the applicable event described in clause ‎(B), the Termination Fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated in any circumstance where the Reverse Termination Fee is payable pursuant to ‎Section 11.04(b)(ii), no Termination Fee shall be payable.

(ii) Reverse Termination Fee. If this Agreement is terminated (A) pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(b)(ii) and the Legal Restraint giving rise to such termination is based on failure to obtain, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Required Insurance Regulatory Filings/Approvals or the Required Antitrust Regulatory Filings/Approvals or (B) pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(b)(i) and, in the case of this clause (B), at the time of such termination, (x) one or more of the conditions set forth in ‎Section 9.01(b), ‎Section 9.01(c) or ‎Section 9.01(d) shall not have been satisfied or waived and (y) all of the other conditions set forth in ‎Section 9.01 and ‎Section 9.02 have been, or are capable of being satisfied, then Parent shall pay to the Company $50,000,000 in immediately available funds (the “Reverse Termination Fee”) within five (5) Business Days after the date of the termination of this Agreement.

(c) Other Costs and Expenses. Each of Parent, the Merger Subs and the Company acknowledges that the agreements contained in ‎Section 11.04(b) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, Parent, the Merger Subs and the Company would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if either Parent or the Company fails promptly to pay any amount due to the other party pursuant to ‎Section 11.04(b), it shall also pay any costs and expenses incurred by such other party in connection with a legal action to enforce this Agreement that results in a judgment against the party that has failed to pay for such amount, together with interest on the amount of any unpaid fee, cost or expense at a rate of five percent (5%) compounded quarterly. Such interest shall be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated daily on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty five (365) days and the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) Parent and the Merger Subs agree that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable by the Company pursuant to this ‎Section 11.04 and such Termination Fee is paid in full, except in the case of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to ‎Section 10.01(c)(i) or ‎Section 10.01(d)(i) resulting from a Willful

Breach by the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, only to the extent committed by or on behalf of the Company by the Company’s officers or directors or any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives acting at the direction of an officer or director of the Company), Parent and the Merger Subs shall be precluded from any other remedy against the Company, at law or in equity or otherwise, and neither Parent nor the Merger Subs shall seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders or Affiliates or their respective Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company agrees that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Reverse Termination Fee is payable by Parent pursuant to this ‎Section 11.04 and such Reverse Termination Fee is paid in full, except in the case of Willful Breach by Parent or either Merger Sub of ‎Section 8.01 (for the avoidance of doubt, only to the extent committed by or on behalf of Parent or either of the Merger Subs by Parent’s or either Merger Subs’ officers or directors or any of Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives acting at the direction of an officer or director of Parent or either Merger Sub), the Company shall be precluded from any other remedy against Parent or either Merger Sub, at law or in equity or otherwise, and the Company shall not seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against Parent or either Merger Sub or any of Parent’s or the Merger Subs’ Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders or Affiliates or their respective Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.05. Disclosure Schedule and SEC Document References. The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section of either the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule shall only be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement and (b) any other representations and warranties of such party that is contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties is reasonably apparent. The mere inclusion of an item in either the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect, as applicable.

Section 11.06. Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment. (a) Subject to ‎Section 11.06(b), the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided in ‎Section 7.04 or ‎Section 10.02, and other than the right of any holder of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards to receive Merger Consideration, Parent RSUs or Parent PSUs in respect of their Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards, as applicable, as contemplated by ‎Article 2, no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

(b) No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto, except that Parent or either of the Merger Subs may transfer or assign its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to (i) one or more of their respective Affiliates at any time and (ii) after the Effective Time, to any Person; provided that such transfer or assignment shall not relieve Parent or either of the Merger Subs of its respective obligations hereunder or enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any other party hereto or due to Parent or the Merger Subs. Any purported assignment, delegation or other transfer without such consent shall be void.

Section 11.07. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state.

Section 11.08. Jurisdiction. (a) The parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether brought by any party or any of its Affiliates or against any party or any of its Affiliates) shall be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or other Delaware state court, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in ‎Section 11.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

(b) EACH OF PARENT, THE MERGER SUBS AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES CORPORATION TRUST CENTER (IN SUCH CAPACITY, THE “PROCESS AGENT”), WITH AN OFFICE AT 1209 ORANGE STREET, CITY OF WILMINGTON, COUNTY OF NEW CASTLE, DELAWARE 19801, AS ITS DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT TO RECEIVE, FOR AND ON ITS BEHALF SERVICE OF PROCESS IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND SUCH SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE UPON DELIVERY THEREOF TO THE PROCESS AGENT; PROVIDED THAT IN THE CASE OF ANY SUCH SERVICE UPON THE PROCESS AGENT, THE PARTY EFFECTING SUCH SERVICE SHALL ALSO DELIVER A COPY THEREOF TO EACH OTHER SUCH PARTY IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTION 11.01. EACH PARTY SHALL TAKE ALL SUCH ACTION AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO CONTINUE SAID APPOINTMENT IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT OR TO APPOINT ANOTHER AGENT SO THAT SUCH PARTY SHALL AT ALL TIMES HAVE AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR THE ABOVE PURPOSES IN WILMINGTON, DELAWARE. NOTHING

HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE IRREVOCABLE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Section 11.09. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 11.10. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by each other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication).

Section 11.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 11.12. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 11.13. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court referred to in ‎Section 11.08(a), without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, prior to the End Date, any party brings any suit, action or proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the End Date shall automatically be extended

by the amount of time during which such suit, action or proceeding is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or such longer time period established by the court presiding over such suit, action or proceeding, if any.
