The Offer shall be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that is disseminated to holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange Act and contains, to the extent required by the Exchange Act, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including Annex A). The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment (and the obligation of Parent to cause Purchaser to accept for payment) shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to:

(i) the condition that, prior to the expiration of the Offer, there have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Offer a number of shares of Company Common Stock that, upon the consummation of the Offer, together with the shares of Company Common Stock then owned by Parent and Purchaser (if any) (excluding shares of Company Common Stock (A) tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received,” as such term is defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL, by the depositary for the Offer pursuant to such procedures, or (B) tendered by the Company or any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries), would represent at least a majority of all then-outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (excluding, for the avoidance of the doubt, shares of Company Common Stock (x) that are owned or held by the Company (including shares held in treasury) or any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, and (y) that are owned or held by Purchaser as a result of any tender into the Offer by the Company or any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries) (the “Minimum Condition”); and

(ii) the other conditions set forth in Annex A.

(b) Other Terms of the Offer. Purchaser expressly reserves the right to, at any time, (x) increase the Per Share Price or (y) waive or modify any of the conditions to the Offer and to make any change in the terms of, or conditions to, the Offer; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, without the prior written consent of the Company (which may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion), Purchaser may not (and Parent shall not permit Purchaser to) (i) amend, modify or waive the Minimum Condition, or waive the condition set forth in clause (d)(vii) of Annex A or (ii) make any change in the terms of or conditions to the Offer that (A) changes the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer, (B) decreases the amount of consideration to be paid in the Offer or the number of shares of Company Common Stock sought in the Offer (other than an adjustment made pursuant to Section 1.1(c)), (C) extends the Offer, other than in a manner required or permitted by the provisions of Section 1.1(d), (D) imposes conditions to the Offer other than those set forth in Annex A, (E) amends or modifies (and for the avoidance of doubt, waivers shall be governed by clause (i) above) any of the conditions set forth in Annex A in any manner that is adverse to the holders of Company Common Stock in their capacities as such, or (F) amends or modifies any other term of or condition to the Offer in any manner that is adverse to the holders of Company Common Stock in their capacities as such.

In addition, if the Company establishes a record date for, declares, sets aside or pays any dividend or other distribution payable in cash, property or otherwise with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock or other shares of its capital stock (including securities convertible into Company Capital Stock) (other than any stock distribution or stock dividend (including any stock dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Company Capital Stock)), any such dividend or other distribution paid, set aside or declared with a record date prior to the Acceptance Time shall reduce the Per Share Price for purposes of the Offer on a dollar-for-dollar basis (in the case of any dividend or distribution that is not in cash, based on the fair value of such property or otherwise as reasonably determined by Parent). No dividends or other distributions with respect to capital stock of the Company with a record date on or after the Acceptance Time will be paid to the holder of any shares of Company Common Stock that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer.

On the terms of and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Offer, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) accept for payment, and pay for, all shares of Company Common Stock that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer promptly (within the meaning of Section 14e-1(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act) after the expiration of the Offer (as it may be extended in accordance with Section 1.1(d)(ii)) (or, at Parent’s election, concurrently with the expiration of the Offer if all conditions to the Offer have been satisfied or waived) (such time of acceptance, the “Acceptance Time”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to Purchaser on a timely basis the funds necessary to pay for any shares of Company Common Stock that Purchaser becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of the Company, Purchaser shall not accept for payment, or pay for, any shares of Company Common Stock if, as a result, Purchaser would acquire less than the shares of Company Common Stock necessary to satisfy the Minimum Condition.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by Stockholders who have not tendered such shares in the Offer and who are entitled to and who shall have properly and validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Company Shares”) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Per Share Price pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii). Holders of Dissenting Company Shares will be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist, and such holders shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL), except that all Dissenting Company Shares held by Stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who shall have effectively waived, withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Company Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Price without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 3.4.

9

(ii) Demands for Appraisal. The Company will give Parent (A) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company in respect of Dissenting Company Shares; and (B) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and Legal Proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal pursuant to the DGCL in respect of Dissenting Company Shares; provided, that the Company shall not be required to follow any such directions that, on advice of its outside counsel, it deems unreasonable, acting in good faith. The Company may not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent may be withheld, conditioned or delayed in Parent’s sole discretion), make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or settle or offer to settle any such demands for payment in respect of Dissenting Company Shares.

3.2 Treatment of Equity Awards and Company ESPP.

(a) Company Options. Parent will not assume any Company Options. Without any action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or the holder thereof, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each then-outstanding and unexercised Company Option will accelerate and fully vest and, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the amount of the Per Share Price (less the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Option) multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of such Company Option (such amount in cash, the “Company Option Consideration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Company Options for which the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Options is equal to or greater than the Per Share Price, such Company Options will be cancelled without any cash payment being made in respect thereof. The payment of the Company Option Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes.

(b) Company RSUs. Parent will not assume any Company RSUs. Without any action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or the holder thereof, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each then-outstanding Company RSU will accelerate and fully vest and, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the amount of the Per Share Price, multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU (such amount in cash, the “Company RSU Consideration”). The payment of the Company RSU Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes.

(c) Payment Procedures. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the aggregate (i) Company Option Consideration owed to all holders of Company Options; and (ii) Company RSU Consideration owed to all holders of Company RSUs. Promptly following the Closing Date (and in no event later than the first regularly scheduled payroll of the Company that is at least five (5) Business Days following the Closing Date), the applicable holders of Company Options and Company RSUs will receive a payment from the Company or the Surviving Corporation, through its payroll system or payroll provider, of all amounts required to be paid to such holders in respect of Company Options or Company RSUs that are cancelled and converted pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b), as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment owed to a holder of Company Options or Company RSUs pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b), as applicable, cannot be made through the Company’s or the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system or payroll provider, then the Surviving Corporation will pay, or cause to be paid, such payment owed to such holder promptly following the Closing Date (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days thereafter).

(d) Company ESPP. During the Interim Period, the Company shall not initiate any Offering Period (as defined in the Company ESPP) under the Company ESPP. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time (but subject to the consummation of the Merger), the Company will terminate the Company ESPP.

(e) Further Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will take all action within its power and authority reasonably necessary to (i) effect the cancellation of Company Options and Company RSUs as of the Effective Time and to give effect to this Section 3.2, and (ii) terminate the Company Equity Plans, and use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that, following the Closing Date, no participant in any Company Equity Plan or other Company Benefit Plan will have any right thereunder to acquire any equity securities of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

10

3.3 Treatment of Warrants. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or the holders of any of the Company Warrants, each Company Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and converted into and will become a right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the amount of the Per Share Price (less the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Warrant) multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of such Company Warrant (the “Company Warrant Consideration”). The payment of the Company Warrant Consideration will be subject to withholding for all required Taxes.

3.4 Exchange of Certificates and Company Warrants.

(a) Payment Agent. Prior to the Closing, Parent will (i) select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the Merger (the “Payment Agent”); and (ii) enter into a payment agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with such Payment Agent.

(b) Exchange Fund. At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1 and Company Warrants pursuant to Section 3.3, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate consideration to which such holders become entitled pursuant to Section 3.1 and Section 3.3. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such cash will be invested by the Payment Agent, as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in (i) obligations of or fully guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States with a maturity of no more than 30 days; (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively; or (iii) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10,000,000,000 (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) (such cash and any proceeds thereon, the “Exchange Fund”). To the extent that (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund; (B) the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Payment Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 3.1; or (C) all or any portion of the Exchange Fund is unavailable for Parent (or the Payment Agent on behalf of Parent) to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 3.1 or Section 3.3 for any reason, Parent will, or will cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Payment Agent to make the payments contemplated by Section 3.1 and Section 3.3. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs.

(c) Payment Procedures.

(i) Payment for Company Common Stock. Promptly following the Closing (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the Closing), Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Payment Agent to mail or otherwise provide to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Company Shares and Owned Company Shares, as applicable) (the “Certificates”) or uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (the “Uncertificated Shares”), in each case, other than Dissenting Company Shares and Owned Company Shares, (i) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, as applicable, in exchange for the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1, and (ii) in the case of a holder of record of Certificates, a customary form

11

letter of transmittal. In the case of Company Common Stock represented by Certificates, upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Payment Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock, as applicable, represented by such Certificate; by (y) the Per Share Price (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof), and the Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. In the case of Uncertificated Shares, upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Uncertificated Shares, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares; by (2) the Per Share Price (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof), and such Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be cancelled. The Payment Agent will accept such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Payment Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Per Share Price payable upon the surrender of such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 3.4(c)(i). Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the Per Share Price, without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no holder of Uncertificated Shares will be required to provide a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Payment Agent in order to receive the payment that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1.

(ii) Payment for Company Warrants. Promptly following the Closing (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the Closing), Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Payment Agent to mail or otherwise provide to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of Company Warrants, (i) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Warrants in exchange for the Company Warrant Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.3, and (ii) a customary form letter of transmittal. Upon delivery of such letter of transmittal to the Payment Agent, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Company Warrants will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the Company Warrant Consideration as set forth in Section 3.3.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. If a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock is not registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, or if the consideration payable is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates surrendered or transferred in exchange therefor are registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, then the consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.1 may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered or transferred is registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company only if such Certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer and the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Price to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable. Payment of the consideration payable with respect to Uncertificated Shares will only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered.

(e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Party will be liable to a Stockholder or holder of a Company Warrant for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

12

(f) Distribution of Exchange Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates, Uncertificated Shares or Company Warrants on the date that is one year after the Closing Date will be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Warrants that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time who have not theretofore surrendered or transferred their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such shares of Company Common Stock or Company Warrants for exchange pursuant to this Section 3.4 will thereafter look for payment of the Per Share Price payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares or Company Warrants solely to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar laws), solely as general creditors thereof, for any claim to the Per Share Price to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.3, as applicable.

3.5 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, (a) all shares of Company Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled, retired and cease to exist; and (b) each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration payable therefor in accordance with Section 3.1 (or in the case of Dissenting Company Shares, the rights pursuant to Section 3.1(c)). The consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article III upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they will (subject to compliance with the exchange procedures of Section 3.4(c)) be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

3.6 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent will issue in exchange therefor, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1. Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Per Share Price, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in a reasonable amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

3.7 Required Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation, or any Subsidiary of Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation, will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom pursuant to any applicable laws related to Taxes; provided that each of the foregoing use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each Stockholder to allow such Stockholder to establish any entitlement to a reduction in or exemption from any such withholding. To the extent that such amounts are (a) so deducted or withheld and (b) timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

3.8 No Dividends or Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to capital stock of the Surviving Corporation with a record date on or after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificates or Uncertificated Shares.

3.9 Necessary Further Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Purchaser, then the directors and officers of the Company and Purchaser as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will take all such lawful and necessary action.

14

to be received pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Parent or any Affiliate of Parent or holders of any Dissenting Company Shares or Owned Company Shares) is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders (it being understood and agreed that such written opinion may not be relied upon by the Buyer Parties).

As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by law) of the conditions to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) and Annex A and the conditions to the Merger set forth in Section 2.4, Parent has no reason to believe that (A) the Buyer Parties will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of the Equity Financing to be satisfied by such party, whether or not such term or condition is contained in the Equity Commitment Letter; or (B) the full amounts committed pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter will not be available as of the Closing if the terms or conditions contained in the Equity Commitment Letter to be satisfied by it are satisfied.

As of the Effective Time and immediately after giving effect to the Transactions (including the payment of all amounts payable pursuant to Article I and Article III in connection with or as a result of the Transactions and all related fees and expenses of Parent and its respective Subsidiaries in connection therewith), assuming (x) the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV in all material respects and (y) compliance and performance by the Company with its covenants and agreements hereunder in all material respects, (a) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets of the Surviving Corporation and its respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will exceed the value of all probable liabilities of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, including contingent and other liabilities, as such debts become absolute and matured; (b) the Surviving Corporation and its respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged; and (c) the Surviving Corporation and its respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature.

The Company hereby consents to the use of the logos of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries solely in connection with the Debt Financing in the form and manner approved by the Company in writing prior to such use; provided, that such logos shall be used solely in a manner that is not intended or would reasonably be expected to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or their reputation or goodwill or any of its respective products, services, offerings or intellectual property rights. The Company and the Company Subsidiaries will be deemed to be in compliance with Section 7.3(e) unless and until (i) Parent provides written notice (the “Non-Cooperation Notice”) to the Company of any alleged failure to comply, or action or failure to act which could be believed to be a breach of Section 7.3(e), (ii) Parent includes in such Non-Cooperation Notice reasonable detail regarding the cooperation required to cure such alleged failure (which shall not require the Company, any Company Subsidiary or their Affiliates to provide any cooperation that it would not otherwise be required to provide under Section 7.3(e)) and (iii) the Company fails to take the actions specified on such Non-Cooperation Notice within three (3) Business Days from receipt of such Non-Cooperation Notice.

43

(f) Costs and Expenses. Parent will (x) promptly (and in any event no later than the proper and valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to, and in accordance with Section 8.1) following written request therefor, reimburse the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on an as-incurred basis for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred or otherwise payable by any of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries in connection with their cooperation pursuant to and in compliance with Section 7.3(e) and (y) indemnify and hold harmless the Company Group and their Affiliates, and the directors, officers, employees, accountants, consultants, financial advisors, legal counsel, agents, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing Persons from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in complying with their obligations in connection with the arrangement of the debt financing taken in accordance with this Section 7.3 and any information utilized in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall Parent be obligated to reimburse, indemnify or otherwise pay or hold harmless any Persons pursuant to the foregoing sentence of this Section 7.3(f) to the extent such cost, loss, liability, fine, expense or damage resulted, as determined by a final court not subject to appeal from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person.

7.4 Anti-Takeover Laws. The Company and the Company Board (and any committee empowered to take such action, if applicable) will (a) take all actions within their power to ensure that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to the Offer, the Merger or the Transaction Documents; and (b) if any Takeover Statute becomes applicable to the Offer, the Merger or the Transaction Documents, take all action within their power to ensure that the Merger may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize or make inapplicable the effect of such statute or regulation on the Offer, the Merger or the Transaction Documents.

7.5 Access. During the Interim Period, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice, to the properties, books and records and personnel of the Company Group to the extent reasonably requested by Parent in furtherance of the consummation of the Merger, except that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (a) any applicable law or regulation requires the Company Group to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information; (b) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (c) access to a Contract existing as of the date hereof to which the Company Group is a party or otherwise bound would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give a third Person the right to terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; or (d) access would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of third Persons; provided, however, that the Company will notify Parent in reasonable detail of the circumstances giving rise to any non-disclosure pursuant to the foregoing and the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, provide such access or disclosure of such information in the cases of the foregoing subsections (a) or (e) to the maximum extent possible. Nothing in this Section 7.5 will be construed to require the Company Group or any of its Representatives to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.5 will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business or operations of the Company Group or create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company Group. Any access to the properties of the Company Group will be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures, health and safety measures, and insurance requirements and will not include the right to perform invasive testing, including any air, soils or groundwater sampling, including any Phase II environmental assessments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may satisfy its obligations set forth above by electronic means if physical access is not permitted under applicable law or not practicable as a result of any COVID-19 Measure or Force Majeure Event (including COVID-19). The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement will apply to any information obtained by Parent or any of its Representatives in connection with any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.5.

44

7.6 Section 16(b) Exemption. The Company will take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the Merger, and any dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the Merger by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

7.7 Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnified Persons. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of the Company Group pursuant to any indemnification agreements (that are substantially in the form disclosed in the Company SEC Reports or that have been made available to Parent prior to the date hereof) between a member of the Company Group and any of its current or former directors or officers (and any person who becomes a director or officer of a member of the Company Group prior to the Effective Time) (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) or employees for any acts or omissions by such Indemnified Persons or employees occurring prior to the Effective Time. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the certificates of incorporation, bylaws, and other similar organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Charter, the Bylaws and the other similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date hereof. During such six-year period or such period in which an Indemnified Person is asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7(b), whichever is longer, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any adverse manner except as required by applicable law.

(b) Indemnification Obligation. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 7.7(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law or pursuant to any indemnification agreements (that are in substantially the form disclosed in the Company SEC Reports or that have been made available to Parent prior to the date hereof) with the Company and any of its Subsidiaries in effect prior to the Closing, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including advancing costs (including attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses)), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, to (i) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission, in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as an Affiliate, director or officer of the Company Group or its Affiliates to the extent that such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to or at the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time; and (ii) the Merger, as well as any actions taken by the Company or the Buyer Parties with respect thereto (including any disposition of assets of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries that is alleged to have rendered the any of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries insolvent) (each of clauses (i) and (ii), a “Company Indemnified Proceeding”), except that if, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event Indemnified Person is or becomes involved in any Company Indemnified Proceeding, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, advance reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses in advance of the final disposition of any such Company Indemnified Proceeding to each Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, the Indemnified Person to whom expenses are advanced provides a reasonable and customary undertaking (which shall not include posting of any collateral) to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification. The Parties agree that the foregoing rights to indemnification and advancement shall also apply with respect to any action to enforce this Section 7.7.

45

(c) D&O Insurance. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect on the date hereof (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are equivalent to those of the D&O Insurance. In satisfying its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.7(c), the Surviving Corporation will not be obligated to pay aggregate premiums in excess of 350% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such 350% amount, the “Maximum Premium”). If the aggregate premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Premium, then the Surviving Corporation will be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier on the date hereof. Prior to the Closing, the Company may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier on the date hereof so long as the aggregate cost for such “tail” policy does not exceed the Maximum Premium. If the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder for so long as such “tail” policy is in full force and effect.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns will (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns will assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation set forth in this Section 7.7.

(e) No Impairment. The obligations set forth in this Section 7.7 may not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person. Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.7, with full rights of enforcement as if such person were a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) pursuant to this Section 7.7 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have pursuant to (i) the Charter and Bylaws; (ii) the similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company; (iii) any and all indemnification agreements entered into with the Company Group; or (iv) applicable law (whether at law or in equity).

(f) Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.7 will be joint and several.

(g) Other Claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company Group for any of its directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.7 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or agreements.

46

7.8 Employee Matters.

(a) Acknowledgement. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that a “change in control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of each of the Company Benefit Plans, as applicable, will occur as of the Effective Time.

(b) Existing Arrangements. Subject to this Section 7.8, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) honor all of the Company Benefit Plans and compensation and severance arrangements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 7.8(d) and Section 7.8(e), nothing will prohibit the Surviving Corporation from in any way amending, modifying or terminating any such Company Benefit Plans or compensation or severance arrangements in accordance with their terms or if otherwise permitted pursuant to applicable law.

(c) Employment; Benefits. As of the Closing, the Surviving Corporation or one of their respective Subsidiaries will continue to employ the employees of the Company Group as of the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time until the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date (or, if earlier, the termination date of an applicable Continuing Employee) (the “Continuation Period”) the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries to) either (i) maintain for the benefit of each Continuing Employee the Company Benefit Plans (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) of the applicable Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries at benefit levels that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those in effect at the Company or its applicable Subsidiaries on the date hereof, and provide benefits (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention, or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) to each Continuing Employee pursuant to such Company Benefit Plans; (ii) provide employee benefits (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) to each Continuing Employee that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention, or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Comparable Plans”); or (iii) provide some combination of Company Benefit Plans and Comparable Plans such that each Continuing Employee receives employee benefits (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) that, taken as a whole, are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits (other than any defined benefit plans, retiree or post-termination welfare benefits, equity or equity-based, severance, incentive, bonus, deferred compensation, change in control, retention or transaction compensation, benefits or arrangements or any stock purchase plans or individual employment agreements or arrangements) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that during the Continuation Period, the Company’s 401(k) Plan or any Comparable Plan intended to replace the Company’s 401(k) Plan will provide for employer matching contributions substantially comparable to the matching contributions provided for under the Company’s 401(k) Plan as of the date hereof. In each case, from and after the Effective Time until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the base salary or hourly wage rage (as applicable) and target short-term or annual cash bonus compensation opportunity (excluding any long-term incentive or equity or equity-based opportunities) in each case, in effect as of the date hereof, will not be decreased for any Continuing Employee. During the Continuation Period, the Surviving Corporation will (and

47

Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) provide to each Continuing Employee whose employment is involuntarily terminated by the Surviving Corporation without “cause” (and not due to the Continuing Employee’s death or disability) with cash severance benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the cash severance benefits to which such Continuing Employee would be entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the applicable Company Benefit Plan in effect on the date hereof and set forth on Section 7.8(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(d) New Plans. To the extent that a Comparable Plan is made available to any Continuing Employee at or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its respective Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its respective Subsidiaries to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company Group prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and entitlement to benefits where length of service is relevant (including for purposes of vacation accrual and severance pay entitlement), except that (i) such service need not be credited to the extent that it would result in duplication of coverage or benefits, (ii) such service shall only be credited to the same extent and for the same purpose as such service was credited under an analogous Company Benefit Plan, and (iii) no service shall be required to be credited under any Comparable Plan that provides for equity or equity-based, defined benefit pension, deferred compensation or post-termination or retiree welfare benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Surviving Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (A) each Continuing Employee will be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all employee benefit plans sponsored by the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries (other than the Company Benefit Plans) (such plans, the “New Plans”) to the extent that coverage pursuant to any such New Plan replaces coverage pursuant to a comparable Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, the “Old Plans”) and (B) during the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs, for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, (x) the Surviving Corporation will cause all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, and (y) the Surviving Corporation will cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year ending on the Closing Date to be given full credit pursuant to such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance, co-pay, offsets and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan. Any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be credited to such Continuing Employee following the Effective Time and will not be subject to accrual limits or other forfeiture and will not limit future accruals (except to the extent that such limits or forfeitures applied under the Company Benefit Plans in effect as of the date hereof).

(e) Treatment of Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan. As soon as practicable following the date hereof, the Company will adopt resolutions or take other actions as may be required to terminate the Company’s Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan”), effective as of, and contingent upon, the Closing, and the Surviving Corporation will distribute all account balances thereunder to each participant within the thirty (30)-day period immediately prior to the one (1)-year anniversary of the Closing Date, in accordance with the terms of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan and in a manner compliant with Section 409A of the Code.

(f) No Third Party Beneficiary Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Section 7.8 will not be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of any Buyer Party, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to terminate any Continuing Employee for any reason; (ii) subject to the limitations and requirements specifically set forth in this Section 7.8, require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to continue any Company Benefit Plan or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; (iii) create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person; or (iv) establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement.

48

7.9 Obligations of the Buyer Parties and the Company. Parent will take all action necessary to cause Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation to perform their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement and to consummate the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Each of the Buyer Parties will be jointly and severally liable for any breach of this Agreement by any Buyer Party (or, following the Closing, the Surviving Corporation) or any other failure by any Buyer Party (or, following the Closing, the Surviving Corporation) to perform and discharge any of its respective covenants, agreements and obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

7.10 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Notification by the Company. At all times during the Interim Period, the Company will give prompt notice to Parent upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure by the Company to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement, in each case if and only to the extent that such untruth, inaccuracy, or failure would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) or Annex A to fail to be satisfied at the expiration of the Offer, except that no such notification will affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the Buyer Parties to consummate the Merger or the remedies available to the Parties under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement apply to any information provided to any Buyer Party pursuant to this Section 7.10(a).

7.11 Public Statements and Disclosure. The initial press release concerning this Agreement and the Transactions will be in a form agreed by each Party.

7.12 Transaction Litigation. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will provide Parent with prompt notice of all Transaction Litigation (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto) and keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.2, the foregoing notice may be delivered only to Parent’s outside counsel by email. The Company will (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; and (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation. The Company may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Transaction Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 7.12, “participate” means that Parent and the Company will jointly cooperate in making the proposed strategy and any other significant decisions with respect to the Transaction Litigation by the Company, with no such significant decisions being made without the approval of the other.

7.13 Stock Exchange Delisting; Deregistration. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part pursuant to applicable law and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq to cause (a) the delisting of the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time; and (b) the deregistration of the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

7.15 Payoff of Credit Agreement. The Company will deliver to Parent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing a customary payoff letter (the “Payoff Letter”) in connection with the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, which Payoff Letter will provide for, among other customary items (and subject to receipt of the applicable payoff amount), customary lien and guarantee releases. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation, the Company shall also use reasonable best efforts to cause the lender under the Credit Agreement to waive any change of control, event of default, acceleration or similar provisions that may be triggered or implicated in connection with the Transaction. In the event that (a) the foregoing waiver by the lender under the Credit Agreement is not obtained by the Company prior to the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Time or (b) if Parent so elects in its sole discretion, substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent will provide (or cause to be provided) to the Company funds in an amount equal to the amount necessary for the Company to repay and discharge in full all amounts outstanding under the terms of the Credit Agreement in accordance with the Payoff Letter and the Company will repay and discharge such indebtedness in accordance with the Payoff Letter.

TERMINATION

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be validly terminated only as follows (it being understood and agreed that this Agreement may not be terminated for any other reason or on any other basis):

(a) at any time prior to the Acceptance Time by mutual written agreement of Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties) and the Company (on behalf of the Company);

(b) by either Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties) or the Company, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time if (i) any permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of any of the Transactions, including the Offer or the Merger, is in effect, or any action has been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, that, in each case, prohibits, makes illegal or enjoins the consummation of any of the Transactions, including the Offer or the Merger, and has become final and non-appealable; or (ii) any statute, rule, regulation or order will have been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to any of the Transactions that prohibits, makes illegal or enjoins the consummation of the Transactions, except, in each case, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) will not be available to any Party whose material breach of its obligations under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 is a proximate cause of the failure to resist, appeal, obtain consent pursuant to, resolve or lift, as applicable, such injunction, action, statute, rule, regulation or order;

(c) by either Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties) or the Company, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) if the Offer shall have terminated or expired in accordance with its terms (subject to the rights and obligations of Parent or Purchaser to extend the Offer pursuant to Section 1.1(d)(ii)) and the Acceptance Time shall not have occurred solely as a result of the failure to satisfy the Minimum Condition; or (ii) if the Acceptance Time has not occurred by 11:59 p.m. (Prevailing Eastern Time) on December 27, 2023 (such time and date, as may be extended pursuant to Section 9.10(b)(iv), the “Termination Date”), it being understood that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) will not be available to any Party whose action or failure to act (which action or failure to act constitutes a material breach by such Party of this Agreement (it being understood that a material breach of this Agreement by Purchaser will be deemed to be a material breach by Parent for purposes hereunder)) has been a proximate cause of, or resulted in, either (A) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) or Annex A or the conditions to the Merger set forth in Section 2.4 prior to the Termination Date; or (B) the failure of the Acceptance Time to have occurred prior to the Termination Date; provided that if the conditions to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) or Annex A (other than the Minimum Condition) are satisfied or waived (or in the case of conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the expiration of the Offer, shall be capable of being satisfied at the expiration of the Offer) or the conditions to the Merger set forth in Section 2.4 are satisfied or waived, in each case as of a date that is on or following the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date (or in the case of conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, shall be capable of being satisfied on the Closing Date), neither Parent nor the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(ii) until the date that is five (5) Business Days after the satisfaction of such conditions;

51

provided, further, that if the Company Board effects a Company Board Recommendation Change during the ten (10) Business Day period prior to the Termination Date, the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(ii) until the date that is ten (10) Business Days from the date of such Company Board Recommendation Change.

(d) by Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties), if the Company has breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would result in a failure of a condition to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) or Annex A, except that if such breach or failure to perform is capable of being cured by the Termination Date, Parent will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) prior to the delivery by Parent to the Company of written notice of such breach or failure to perform, delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination (or such shorter period of time as remains prior to the Termination Date), stating Parent’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) and the basis for such termination, it being understood that Parent will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement if such breach or failure to perform has been cured prior to such termination;

(e) by Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties), if at any time (i) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) has effected a Company Board Recommendation Change, except that Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e)(i) will expire at 5:00 p.m. (Prevailing Eastern Time) on the tenth (10^th) Business Day following the date on which such right to terminate first arose or (ii) the Company Group shall have materially breached its obligations under either of Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b);

(f) by the Company, if any of the Buyer Parties have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Parent or Purchaser to consummate the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, prior to the Termination Date, except that if such breach or failure to perform is capable of being cured by the Termination Date, the Company will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(f) prior to the delivery by the Company to Parent of written notice of such breach or failure to perform, delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination (or such shorter period of time as remains prior to the Termination Date), stating the Company’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(f) and the basis for such termination, it being understood that the Company will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement if such breach or failure to perform has been cured prior to such termination; or

(g) by the Company, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, if (i) the Company has received a Superior Proposal; (ii) the Company Board has authorized the Company to terminate this Agreement and enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement to consummate the Acquisition Transaction contemplated by that Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 6.2; (iii) the Company has complied in all material respects with Section 6.2 with respect to such Superior Proposal; and (iv) prior to or concurrently with such termination, the Company pays the Company Termination Fee due to Parent in accordance with Section 8.3(b).

8.2 Manner and Notice of Termination; Effect of Termination.

(a) Manner of Termination. The Party terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 (other than pursuant to Section 8.1(a)) must deliver prompt written notice thereof to the other Parties setting forth in reasonable detail the provision of Section 8.1 pursuant to which this Agreement is being terminated and the facts and circumstances forming the basis for such termination pursuant to such provision.

(b) Effect of Termination. Any proper and valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 will be effective immediately upon mutual written agreement of Parent and the Company or the delivery of written notice by the terminating Party to the other Parties. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement will be of no further force or effect without liability of any Party (or any

52

Affiliate of such Party or any partner, member, manager, stockholder, or Representative of the foregoing) to the other Parties, as applicable, except that Section 7.3(f), Section 7.11, this Section 8.2, Section 8.3 and Article IX will each survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms; provided that Section 9.10 shall only survive and be applicable with respect to other provisions of this Agreement that survive such termination. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, but subject to Section 8.2(c) and Section 8.3, nothing in this Agreement (other than, with respect to the Parent Parties, the Parent Liability Limit) will relieve any Party or other Person from any liability for any Willful Breach. No valid termination of this Agreement will affect the rights or obligations of any Party or other Person pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement, the Support Agreements, the Guaranty or the Equity Commitment Letter (in each case, except as provided therein), which rights, obligations and agreements will, to the extent such agreements do not otherwise terminate upon termination of this Agreement, survive the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms.

(c) Parent Liability Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or otherwise, the maximum aggregate monetary liability (including for any monetary damages) of (i) Parent, (ii) Purchaser, (iii) the Guarantors and (iv) any of Parent’s and Purchaser’s former, current and future Affiliates, and their respective assignees, stockholders, equityholders, limited partners, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and other Representatives (the Persons described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), collectively, the “Parent Parties”) in the event Parent or Purchaser fails to consummate the Transactions or otherwise fails to comply with or breaches any covenant or other obligation or representation and warranty in this Agreement (including in the event of fraud or Willful Breach) shall not exceed the Parent Liability Limit. In no event will the Company or any of its former, current and future Affiliates, assignees, stockholders, limited partners, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and other Representatives seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery, monetary award or monetary damages against any Parent Party with respect to the Transaction Documents or the Transactions (including any breach by the Guarantors or any Parent Party), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Transactions or thereby or any claims, Legal Proceedings or actions under applicable laws arising out of any such breach, termination or failure (including in the event of fraud or Willful Breach), other than from Parent or Purchaser to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or from the Guarantors as expressly provided in the Guaranty. Nothing in this Section 8.2(c) shall in any way expand or be deemed or construed to expand the circumstances in which Parent, any other Parent Party may be liable under the Transaction Documents.

8.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) General. Except as set forth in this Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions will be paid by the Party incurring such fees and expenses whether or not the Transactions are consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent or the Surviving Corporation will be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Payment Agent. Except as set forth in Section 3.4(d), all documentary, sales, use, real property transfer, registration, transfer, stamp, recording and similar Taxes and fees shall be paid by the Person or Persons on whom such Taxes and fees are imposed by applicable law.

(b) Company Termination Fee.

(i) Future Transactions. If (A) this Agreement is validly terminated (I) by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d), (II) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c) and at such time, Parent could have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e) or (III) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c) and, at the time of such termination, each condition to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) and Annex A (other than the Minimum Condition, other than conditions set forth in clauses (d)(i) through (d)(iv) of Annex A, and other than any conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the expiration of the Offer (if such conditions would be satisfied or validly waived were the expiration of the Offer to occur at such time)) has been satisfied (or would be satisfied) or waived and the Minimum Condition has not been satisfied; (B) following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to any such termination, an Acquisition Proposal has been made to the Company or the Company Board or announced or publicly disclosed and not withdrawn or otherwise

53

abandoned; and (C) within one year of such termination, either an Acquisition Transaction is consummated or the Company enters into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction and such Acquisition Transaction is subsequently consummated (in each case, whether or not the Acquisition Proposal referenced in the preceding clause), then the Company will, concurrently with (and as a condition to) the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction, pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee an amount equal to the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement, as may be updated by Parent by written notice to the Company no more than one (1) Business Day before a payment to Parent is due hereunder. For purposes of this Section 8.3(b)(i), all references to “15%” and “85%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(ii) Company Board Recommendation Change; Non-Solicit Breach. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(e), then the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day following such termination, pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement, as may be updated by Parent by written notice to the Company no more than one (1) Business Day before a payment to Parent is due hereunder.

(iii) Superior Proposal. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(g), then the Company shall, concurrently with (and as a condition to) such termination, pay or cause to be paid to Parent or its designee the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement, as may be updated by Parent by written notice to the Company no more than one (1) Business Day before a payment to Parent is due hereunder.

(c) Single Payment Only; Liquidated Damages. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event will the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) the damages resulting from the termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation; and (iii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Therefore, the Company Termination Fee, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 8.3, will not constitute a penalty but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions.

(d) Default. If the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 8.3(b) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a Legal Proceeding that results in a judgment against the Company for the amount set forth in Section 8.3(b) or any portion thereof, then the Company will pay or cause to be paid to Parent the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) of Parent in connection with such Legal Proceeding, together with interest on such amount or portion thereof at an annual rate equal to the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date that such payment or portion thereof was required to be made), or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by applicable law (“Default Payments”).

(e) Sole and Exclusive Remedy. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 8.1 in a circumstance where the Company Termination Fee is payable, Parent’s receipt of the Company Termination Fee to the extent owed pursuant to Section 8.3(b) (and any Default Payments pursuant to Section 8.3(d)) will be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyer Parties against (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries; (ii) the former, current and future holders of any equity, partnership or limited liability interest, controlling persons, Representatives, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders officers, directors, employees, agents,

54

principals, management companies, portfolio companies and assignees of each of the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates and (iii) any successor, assignee or heir of any of the Persons described in clause (i) or (ii) (the Persons in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) in respect of this Agreement and the Transactions (it being understood that the foregoing shall not limit Parent’s right to specific performance pursuant to Section 9.10(b) prior to the valid termination of this Agreement). Upon payment of such amount, none of the Company Related Parties will have any further monetary liability or obligation to any Parent Related Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions (except that the Company and its Subsidiaries (or their Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and Parent and Purchaser may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 8.2, Section 8.3(a) and Section 8.3(d), as applicable).

9.6 Confidentiality. The Buyer Parties and the Parties hereby acknowledge that L Catterton Management Limited and the Company have previously executed a Confidentiality Agreement, dated June 6, 2023 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), that will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms; provided that from and after the date hereof, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Confidentiality Agreement, no consent of the Company shall be required for any Person who is a potential source of, or may provide, equity, debt or any other type of financing for the Transactions to become a Representative (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) of L Catterton Management Limited thereunder, nor will any notice from L Catterton Management Limited to the Company be required if Parent, Purchaser, L Catterton Management Limited, any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives are directly or indirectly contacted by a third party to discuss the possibility of participating with Parent, Purchaser, L Catterton Management Limited, or any of their respective

56

Affiliates in the Transaction as a potential co-investor or financing source (including the possibility of providing equity, debt or any other type of financing). Each of the Buyer Parties and their respective Representatives will hold and treat all documents and information concerning the Company Group furnished or made available to the Buyer Parties or their respective Representatives in connection with the Transactions in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. By executing this Agreement, each of the Buyer Parties agree to be bound by, and to direct their Representatives to comply with (to the extent the terms are applicable to Representatives), the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement as if they were parties thereto; provided, that the Buyer Parties agree they will be responsible and liable for any actions taken or omissions made by their Representatives that are in violation of the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement or do not comply with the directions required to be given to such Representatives pursuant to this sentence to the extent the terms are applicable to Representatives.

9.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Parent Disclosure Letter, the Support Agreements, the Guaranty and the Equity Commitment Letter, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement will (a) not be superseded; (b) survive any termination of this Agreement; and (c) continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

Except as set forth in Section 7.7 and this Section 9.8, the Parties agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the other Parties in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to, and will not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by Section 7.7; (b) the Financing Related Persons shall be intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, the Lender Protective Provisions and the rights of the Parent Parties hereunder may be pledged to the Financing Related Persons pursuant to the Debt Financing and (c) the Parent Parties shall be intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, Section 8.2(b), Section 8.2(c) and Section 9.18.

9.9 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.10 Remedies.

(a) Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by this Agreement or by applicable law on such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document or otherwise, although the Company may, subject in all respects to Section 8.2, Section 8.3, this Section 9.10 and Section 9.18 (and, in each case, the limitations set forth herein or therein), pursue both (i) a grant of specific performance, and (ii) payment of monetary damages pursuant to Section 8.2(b) and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.2(c), under no circumstances will the Company, directly or indirectly, be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance or other equitable relief to cause the Equity Financing to be funded (whether under this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter) and the occurrence of the Closing, on the one hand, and payment of any monetary damages (including any monetary damages in lieu of specific performance) whatsoever, on the other hand.

57

(b) Specific Performance.

(i) Irreparable Damage. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party failing to take such actions that are required of it by this Agreement in order to consummate the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (A) the Parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms of this Agreement (including specific performance or other equitable relief to cause Parent to perform any obligations required of it and to enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter to the extent expressly permitted therein) and to waive any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such a remedy; (B) the provisions of Section 8.3 are not intended to and do not adequately compensate the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand, for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (C) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement.

(ii) Specific Performance in Respect of the Equity Financing. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, it is acknowledged and agreed that Parent and Purchaser have an obligation under this Agreement to cause the Equity Financing to be funded, including by exercising its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter, and that such obligation of Parent and Purchaser, and the right of the Company to specific performance in connection with enforcing such obligation of Parent and Purchaser (whether under this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter), and the obligation of Parent and Purchaser to consummate the Offer and the Merger, will be subject to the requirements that all of the conditions to the funding of the Equity Financing have been and continue to be satisfied or waived and that all of the conditions to the Offer set forth in Section 1.1(a) and Annex A have been and continue to be satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the expiration of the Offer, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the expiration of the Offer) and that all of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Section 2.4 have been and continue to be satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the expiration of the Merger, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the expiration of the Merger).

(iii) No Objections. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.10(b)(ii), the Parties agree not to raise any objections to (A) the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand; and (B) the specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants, obligations and agreements of the Parties pursuant to this Agreement. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each Party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

(iv) Tolling of the Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if prior to the original Termination Date any Party initiates a Legal Proceeding to enforce specifically this Agreement or any terms hereof, then the Termination Date will be automatically extended by five (5) months from the original Termination Date (provided that the Termination Date may only be extended one time pursuant to this sentence).

58

(v) Acknowledgement Regarding Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the availability of monetary damages, it is agreed that the Buyer Parties and the Company will each be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in this Section 9.10, except that, although a Party, in its sole discretion, may determine its choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 8.2(c) and this Section 9.10, under no circumstances will a Party be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and any monetary damages.

Section 9. Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or by the Certificate of Incorporation or any amendments thereto and subject to Section 3 of Article VI hereof, every stockholder shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one (1) vote in person or by proxy for each share of common stock held by such stockholder.

Every proxy must be signed by the stockholder granting the proxy or by his, her or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

Section 11. Action by Written Consent. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing or electronic communication, setting forth the action so taken and bearing the dates of signature of the stockholders who signed the consent or consents, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than a majority of the shares entitled to vote, or, if greater, not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, or the Corporation’s principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book or books in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested provided, however, that no consent or consents delivered

by certified or registered mail shall be deemed delivered until such consent or consents are actually received at the registered office. All consents properly delivered in accordance with this section shall be deemed to be recorded when so delivered. No written or electronic consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation as required by this section, written consents signed by the holders of a sufficient number of shares to take such corporate action are so recorded. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing. Any action taken pursuant to such written or electronic consent or consents of the stockholders shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the stockholders at a meeting thereof.

Members of the board of directors or any committee thereof may participate in and act at any meeting of such board or committee through the use of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in the meeting pursuant to this section shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

Section 11. Waiver of Notice and Presumption of Assent. Any member of the board of directors or any committee thereof who is present at a meeting shall be conclusively presumed to have waived notice of such meeting except when such member attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

a)    Advancement to Officers. The Corporation may, at the discretion of the board of directors of the Corporation, advance any or all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of any Officer in connection with any Proceeding in which such is involved by reason of such Officer’s Corporate Status upon the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements from such Officer requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by such Officer and shall be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by or on behalf of such to repay any Expenses so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such Officer is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses.

The failure of the Corporation (including its board of directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or stockholders) to make a determination concerning the permissibility of such

11

indemnification or, in the case of a Director, advancement of Expenses, under this Article V shall not be a defense to the action and shall not create a presumption that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible.

Section 8. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights to indemnification and advancement of Expenses set forth in this Article V shall not be exclusive of any other right which any Director, Officer, or Non-Officer Employee may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or Disinterested Directors or otherwise.

If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is required by statute, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by statute, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

In case of default in the payment of any installment or call when such payment is due, the Corporation may proceed to collect the amount due in the same manner as any debt due the Corporation.
