All Per Share Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with the terms of this Article IV shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Eligible Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further transfers on the stock transfer books or ledger of the Surviving Corporation of the Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate or acceptable evidence of a Book-Entry Share formerly representing any Eligible Share is presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for transfer or any other reason, it shall be cancelled and exchanged for the cash amount in immediately available funds to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article IV.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund.

(i) Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof (if any)) that remains unclaimed by the holders of Eligible Shares for twelve (12) months from and after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent (or such other Person caused by Parent to deposit the Exchange Fund, as the case may be) or the Surviving Corporation, as determined by Parent. Any holder of Eligible Shares who has not theretofore complied with the procedures, materials and instructions contemplated by this Section 4.2 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation as a general creditor thereof for such payments (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g)) in respect thereof (without any interest thereon).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article IV, none of the Surviving Corporation, Parent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. If any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall not have been surrendered prior to two (2) years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Per Share Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any Per Share Merger Consideration payable in accordance with this Article IV shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be reasonably required by Parent or the Paying Agent as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Paying Agent shall, in exchange for such Certificate, issue a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g)) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of Eligible Shares represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

24

(g) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent (and any of their Affiliates) shall be entitled to (i) deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts (x) shall be timely remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity and (y) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

4.3 Treatment of Equity Awards.

(a) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration over (B) the per-share exercise price for such Company Option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of Shares underlying such Company Option (the “Company Option Consideration”); provided that if the exercise price per Share of any such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be canceled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof. The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation (to the extent applicable) to each holder of a Company Option the Company Option Consideration (if any), less any required withholding Taxes, within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time.

(b) Company PSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the sum of (A) any accrued but unpaid cash in respect of dividend equivalent rights representing fractional Shares with respect to such Company PSU plus (B) the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company PSU (including for the avoidance of doubt any dividend equivalent units credited in respect of Company PSUs) immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration (the “Company PSU Consideration”). The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation (to the extent applicable) to each holder of a Company PSU the Company PSU Consideration, less any required withholding Taxes, within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time; provided that to the extent payment within such time or on such date would trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payments shall be made on the earliest date that payment would not trigger such Tax or penalty.

25

(c) Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the sum of (A) any accrued but unpaid cash in respect of dividend equivalent rights representing fractional Shares with respect to such Company RSU plus (B) the product of (i) the total number of Shares underlying such Company RSU (including for the avoidance of doubt any dividend equivalent units credited in respect of Company RSUs), multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration (the “Company RSU Consideration”). The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation (to the extent applicable) to each holder of a Company RSU the Company RSU Consideration, less any required withholding Taxes, within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time; provided that to the extent payment within such time or on such date would trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payments shall be made on the earliest date that payment would not trigger such Tax or penalty.

(d) Company Actions; Cooperation. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company Board or a committee thereof shall have adopted resolutions to approve the treatment of the Company Equity Awards in accordance with this Section 4.3. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to the Company Equity Awards held by individuals subject to Taxes imposed by the Laws of a country other than the United States, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith prior to the Effective Time to minimize the Tax impact of the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3.

4.4 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if, from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX, the issued and outstanding Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares shall have been changed into a different number of Shares or securities or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend with a record date within such period shall have been declared, then the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide the holders of Shares as well as Parent, Holding and Merger Sub the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event, and such items, so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Per Share Merger Consideration; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.4 shall be construed to permit the Company or any other Person to take any action except to the extent consistent with, and not otherwise prohibited by, the terms of this Agreement.

4.5 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, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation its full right, title or interest in, and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Company and Merger Sub, then the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation shall be fully authorized in the name and behalf of the Company or otherwise to take all such lawful actions as may be necessary or desirable to accomplish such purpose or acts or to carry out this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, a Purported Breach Matter may only be taken into account for purposes of assessing whether the condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) has been satisfied if such Purported Breach Matter (x) was validly notified to the Company and discussed at a Committee Meeting and (y):

(i) is curable unilaterally by the Company and has not been cured by the Company within fourteen (14) days of the Committee Meeting at which such Purported Breach Matter was so discussed;

61

(iii) is not curable unilaterally by the Company and the Company did not have Knowledge prior to the taking of the actions that directly caused the Purported Breach Matter that such actions would be taken, and the Company has not used its good faith, reasonable best efforts to cure such alleged non-compliance within fourteen (14) days of the Committee Meeting at which such Purported Breach Matter was so discussed.

(e) Without prejudice to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.1(a), neither (i) any failure of the Company to perform any of the covenants set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) nor (ii) any discussion of, or response to a request for information in relation to, any Purported Breach Matter, shall be taken into account for purposes of assessing whether the condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) has been satisfied.

Without prejudice to the foregoing sentences, at all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and the Effective Time, except as expressly permitted by this Section 7.3, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective directors, executive officers or controlled Affiliates, and shall instruct any other Representatives and other employees not to, directly or indirectly:

(vi) approve any transaction, or any Person becoming an “interested stockholder”, under Section 203 of the DGCL or approve any transaction, or any person becoming a “Substantial Stockholder”, under Article IX of the Company Charter (in each case, other than with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or Parent or its Affiliates);

(vii) otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make an Acquisition Proposal; or

(viii) resolve, agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing.

(b) Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but, for the avoidance of doubt, subject to the provisions of Section 7.3(c), prior to the time, but not after, the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, in response to an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that is made after the date of this Agreement (and in any event only if the Company did not violate this Section 7.3 with respect to such Person), the Company may (acting upon the recommendation of the Company Board), subject to compliance with this Section 7.3(b) and Section 7.3(c):

(i) provide information and data concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries and access to the Company and its Subsidiaries’ properties, books and records in response to a request to the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal; provided that substantially concurrently (but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after the provision of such information or data), the Company shall make available to Parent any such information or data concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries that the Company provides to any such Person that was not previously made available to Parent and that, prior to furnishing any such information, the Company receives from the Person making

63

such Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality agreement with terms that are at least as restrictive to the other party as the terms in the Confidentiality Agreement are on Parent (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a standstill provision or otherwise prohibit the making or amending of an Acquisition Proposal, but shall not include any restrictions that would reasonably be expected to restrain the Company from satisfying its obligations contemplated by Section 7.3(c) or that would otherwise call for an exclusive right to negotiate with the Company prior to the termination of this Agreement) (any confidentiality agreement satisfying such criteria, a “Permitted Confidentiality Agreement”); and

(ii) engage or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any such Person regarding such unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, in each case of clause (i) and this clause (ii) of this Section 7.3(b), if, and only if, prior to taking any action described in clause (i) or this clause (ii) of this Section 7.3(b), the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its legal advisor) that (A) based on the information then available and after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (B) based on the information then available, including the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal and those of this Agreement, failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that prior to engaging or otherwise participating in any such discussions or negotiations with or furnishing any information to such Person, the Company gives Parent written notice in accordance with Section 7.3(c). The Company acknowledges and agrees that any action, that if taken by the Company would be a breach of this Section 7.3, is taken by a Representative of the Company, such action shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 7.3 by the Company.

(c) Notice of Acquisition Proposals. The Company shall promptly (but, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) give notice to Parent if (i) any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or which could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal are received by, (ii) any non-public information or data concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries is requested in connection with any Acquisition Proposal from, or (iii) any discussions or negotiations relating to an Acquisition Proposal are sought to be engaged in or continued with, it, its Subsidiaries or any of its or any of the Company’s officers, directors and financial advisors, setting forth in such notice a summary of the material terms and conditions with respect to any such proposal or offer and a summary of the material content of any such inquiry, as applicable, and thereafter shall (1) keep Parent reasonably informed, on a prompt basis of the status and material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposals or requests (including any amendments, modifications or supplements thereto, within twenty-four (24) hours following receipt thereof) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations and (2) provide Parent (or its outside legal counsel) with unredacted copies of all writings or media containing any terms or conditions of any proposals or proposed transaction agreements relating to any Acquisition Proposal as promptly as practicable (and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours following the receipt or delivery thereof). The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality agreement subsequent to the date hereof that prohibits the Company from providing to Parent such material terms and conditions and other information.

64

(d) No Change of Recommendation.

(i) Except as permitted by Section 7.3(d)(ii) and Section 7.3(e), the Company Board, including any committee thereof, shall not:

(A) withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify) the Company Recommendation with respect to the Merger in any manner adverse to Parent, Holding or Merger Sub;

(B) following the date any Acquisition Proposal or any material modification thereto is first made public or sent or given to stockholders of the Company, fail to issue a press release publicly reaffirming the Company Recommendation within five (5) Business Days (or, if earlier, prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting) following Parent’s written request to do so (which request may only be made once with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, except that Parent may make an additional request after any material change in the terms of such Acquisition Proposal);

(C) following the commencement of any tender or exchange offer relating to the securities of the Company, fail to issue a press release publicly announcing within ten (10) Business Days of such commencement that the Company recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer and reaffirming the Company Recommendation;

(D) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement or make or authorize the making of any public statement (oral or written) that has the substantive effect of a withdrawal, qualification or modification of the Company Recommendation;

(E) approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or proposal reasonably expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable or publicly propose to enter into, or enter into, any Alternative Acquisition Agreement;

(F) except as expressly permitted by, and after compliance with, Section 7.3(d)(ii) and Section 9.3(b), cause or permit the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement; or

(G) agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing.

65

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7.3, prior to the time the Requisite Company Vote is obtained, the Company Board may (A) effect a Change of Recommendation if (x)(1) a written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) is bona fide and that did not arise from or in connection with a breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.3 is received by the Company after the date of this Agreement and is not withdrawn prior to the Change of Recommendation, and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or (2) an Intervening Event has occurred, and (y) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would reasonably be likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (B) take action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 9.3(b) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) is bona fide and that did not arise from or in connection with a breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.3 and that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that (1) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (2) failure to effect a Change of Recommendation would reasonably be likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that a Change of Recommendation or action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b) may not be made (i) unless the Company shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 7.3 and (ii) unless and until the Company has given Parent written notice of such action four (4) Business Days in advance (an “Initial Notice”), setting forth in writing that the Company Board intends to consider whether to take such action, the reasons with respect thereto and (I) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and (II) in the case of an Intervening Event, a reasonable description of such Intervening Event (it being agreed that, in each case, the delivery of such notice by the Company shall not constitute a Change of Recommendation). After giving such Initial Notice and prior to effecting such Change of Recommendation or taking such action to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b), the Company shall, and shall instruct its legal and financial advisors to, negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives throughout such four (4) Business Day period (to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate) to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that the failure of the Company Board to effect a Change of Recommendation or to take such action to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b) would no longer be reasonably be likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties. At the end of the four (4) Business Day period, prior to taking action to effect a Change of Recommendation or taking action to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b), the Company Board shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in writing and any other information offered by Parent in writing in response to the Initial Notice, and shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that (A) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (B) in the case of an Intervening Event, the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, in each case, if such changes offered in writing were to be given effect. Any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 7.3(d) except that the obligation to give advance written notice with respect thereto as set forth in this Section 7.3(d) shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days.

66

(e) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) complying with its disclosure obligations under U.S. federal or state Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal or (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act; provided that any “stop look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act shall include an affirmative statement to the effect that the Company Recommendation is affirmed or remains unchanged; and provided, further, that if any such disclosure or communication has the substantive effect of withdrawing, qualifying or modifying the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent, such disclosure or communication shall constitute a Change of Recommendation unless the Company expressly reaffirms the Company Recommendation in such disclosure or communication.

(f) Standstill Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall be permitted to terminate, amend or otherwise modify, waive or fail to enforce any provision of any such confidentiality, “standstill” or similar agreement if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

7.4 Proxy Statement; Other Regulatory Matters.

(a) Proxy Statement.

(i) As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event within fifteen (15th) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, a proxy statement (as amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”). Except under the circumstances expressly otherwise permitted by Section 7.3, the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Recommendation. Parent shall cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the Proxy Statement upon reasonable request of the Company and furnish all information concerning Parent as reasonably requested by the Company.

(ii) The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Proxy Statement will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act. Each of the Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that none of the information supplied by it, any of its controlled Affiliates or their respective Representatives for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date of mailing to stockholders of the Company, at the time of the Company Stockholders Meeting or of filing with the SEC (as applicable), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that (1) the Company assumes

67

no responsibility with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of Parent, its controlled Affiliates or their respective Representatives for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement and (2) Parent, Holding and Merger Sub assume no responsibility with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of the Company, its controlled Affiliates or their respective Representatives for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement.

(iii) If at any time prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting, any information relating to the Company or Parent, any of their respective Affiliates or their respective directors, officers or Representatives, should be discovered by a Party, which information should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, so that either the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall as promptly as practicable following such discovery notify the other Party or Parties (as the case may be) and after such notification the Company shall (A) prepare (with the assistance of Parent) an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and (B) cause the Proxy Statement as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicably thereafter and to be disseminated to its stockholders, in each case, as and to the extent required by applicable Law.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.4, prior to filing, furnishing or delivering such documents with the applicable Governmental Entity and disseminating the Proxy Statement (including any amendment or supplement thereto) to the stockholders of the Company or responding to comments of the SEC or its staff with respect thereto, the Company shall (A) provide Parent and its outside legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on drafts of such documents or communications related to the Company Stockholders Meeting and (B) consider in good faith for inclusion in the Proxy Statement (and any amendment or supplement thereto) and such other documents and communications related to the Company Stockholders Meeting (including with respect to any comment letters from the SEC) all comments reasonably proposed by Parent and its outside legal counsel and the Company agrees that all information relating to Parent, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives included in the Proxy Statement shall be in form and content satisfactory to Parent, acting reasonably. The Company shall promptly notify Parent of the receipt of all comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement and of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement thereto or for additional material information and shall promptly provide to Parent copies of all written correspondence between the Company and/or any of its Representatives and the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement. The Company and Parent shall each use its reasonable best efforts to promptly provide responses to the SEC with respect to all comments received on the Proxy Statement from the SEC. Except in connection with a Change of Recommendation, no amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement will be made by the Company without the approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to stockholders of the Company as of the record date established for the Company Stockholders Meeting (the “Record Date”) as promptly as practicable after the date on which the SEC confirms orally or in writing, that it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement or that it does not intend to review the Proxy Statement (the “Proxy Statement Clearance Date”).

Parent and the Company shall have the right to review in advance and, to the extent practicable, each will consult with the other on and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, all of the information relating to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, any of their respective controlled Affiliates and any of their respective Representatives, that appears in any presentation or filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither the Company nor Parent shall permit any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to participate in any discussions or meetings with any Governmental Entity in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless it consults with the other in advance and, to the extent permitted by

70

such Governmental Entity, gives the other the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that Parent or any of its Affiliates (or any Person acting on behalf of Parent or at Parent’s direction) receives any communication or request for information from any Governmental Entity relating to the Merger or the Company, Parent will (i) notify the Company within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of such inquiry and (ii) consult with the Company with respect to all aspects of its response thereto prior to providing any substantive response to any Governmental Entity with respect thereto.

Parent and the Company hereby agree that Section 13(c)(ii) of the Confidentiality Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read “June 30, 2022”.

7.9 Employee Benefits.

(a) For a period of one (1) year immediately following the Closing Date (or if shorter, during the relevant period of employment), Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, the Continuing Employees with (i) an annual base salary or wage rate that is no less favorable than that provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) target cash short-term incentive and commission opportunities that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) employee benefits (excluding equity and equity-based compensation, nonqualified deferred compensation, defined benefit pensions, and retiree medical arrangements) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iv) the severance benefits set forth on Section 7.9(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(b) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under any employee benefit plans of Parent and its Subsidiaries solely to the extent such plans provide benefits to any Continuing Employee after the Closing Date (including the Company Benefit Plans) (the “New Plans”), each such Continuing Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided that the foregoing service credit shall not be required to apply (i) to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service, (ii) for purposes of any defined benefit pension accrual under any New Plan (other than any Company Benefit Plan) and (iii) for purposes of any subsidy provided for any post-employment welfare benefits under any New Plan (other than any Company Benefit Plan). In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (A) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is replacing comparable coverage under a Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Closing Date (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (B) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts, cause (x) all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, to the extent such conditions were inapplicable or waived under the comparable Old Plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries in which such

74

Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date and (y) any eligible expenses incurred by any Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance 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.

In such event, prior to the Closing Date and thereafter (as applicable), the Company and Parent shall take any and all action as may be required, including amendments to a U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by Parent or one of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Parent Qualified Plan”), to permit each Continuing Employee to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in an amount equal to the eligible rollover distribution portion of the account balance distributable to such Continuing Employee from such Company Qualified Plan to the corresponding Parent Qualified Plan. If the Company Qualified Plan is terminated as described herein, the Continuing Employees shall be eligible as soon as administratively practicable following the Closing Date to commence participation in a Parent Qualified Plan.

(d) The Parties shall take the actions set forth on Section 7.9(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

79

with such Company Note Offers and Consent Solicitations and (B) the Company’s Representatives to furnish any customary or necessary certificates, or comfort letters in connection with the indentures and the Company Note Offers and Consent Solicitations). The dealer manager, solicitation agent, information agent, depositary or other agent retained in connection with any Company Note Offers and Consent Solicitations will be selected by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and be reasonably acceptable to the Company and their fees and out-of-pocket expenses will be paid directly by Parent. The Merger is not conditioned on the occurrence or success, or the making or obtaining, as applicable, of any Company Note Offers and Consent Solicitations.

(c) Parent shall (i) promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse (or cause to be reimbursed) the Company and its Subsidiaries for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket auditor’s and attorneys’ fees and expenses) of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of their Representatives incurred in connection with the requested cooperation set forth in this Section 7.15 or Section 7.15 of the Original Merger Agreement and (ii) indemnify (or cause to be indemnified), defend and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries, its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives against any claim, loss, damage, injury, liability, judgment, award, penalty, fine, Tax, cost (including cost of investigation), expense (including reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel) or settlement payment, of any kind, incurred, imposed on, sustained, suffered by or asserted against, any of them, directly or indirectly relating to, arising out of or resulting from the Financing, the performance by the Company, its Subsidiaries, its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives of any obligations set forth in this Section 7.15 or Section 7.15 of the Original Merger Agreement and any information utilized in connection therewith and such Representatives shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 7.15. Parent acknowledges and agrees that, except for obligations from and after the Closing Date that arise under the definitive agreements governing the Financing or closing certificates relating to the Financing, the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives shall not have any responsibility for, or incur any liability to, any person under any arrangement with respect to the Financing that Parent may request in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.11 and this Section 7.15, the cooperation or other actions contemplated in Section 7.11 and this Section 7.15 (i) do not and shall not require such cooperation from the Company or the Company to take any such action to the extent it would (A) unreasonably disrupt or interfere with the conduct of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ business, (B) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any fees, expenses or other liability prior to the Effective Time for which it is not entitled to be reimbursed or indemnified pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (other than customary authorization letters required in connection with the Financing), (C) subject any director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to personal liability, (D) require the Company to breach, waive or amend any terms of this Agreement, (E) require the Company to provide any information that is prohibited or restricted by applicable Law or is attorney-client privilege or protection (including attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protections and confidentiality protections), (F) require cooperation to the extent that it would reasonably be expected to conflict with or violate any applicable Law or result in a breach of, or a default under, any Contract (including a breach of any confidentiality obligation), (G) require the directors of the Company or any Subsidiary to authorize or adopt any resolutions approving the agreements,

80

7.16 Merger Sub Consent. In accordance with applicable Law and Merger Sub’s Organizational Documents, immediately following the execution of this Agreement, Holding, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, shall (a) approve the execution, delivery and performance by Merger Sub of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and (b) adopt this Agreement, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the Parties.

9.2 Termination by Either Parent or the Company. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, by either the Company or Parent if:

(a) the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before June 30, 2021 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that if the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 8.1(b) have not been satisfied or waived on or prior to such date but all other conditions to Closing set forth in Article VIII have been satisfied or waived (except for those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), the Outside Date will be automatically extended to December 31, 2021 and such date, as so extended, shall be the “Outside Date”; or

(b) the Requisite Company Vote shall not have been obtained at the Company Stockholders Meeting (or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, subject to Section 7.5) held in accordance with this Agreement.

(a) if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Parent, Holding or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Parent, Holding or Merger Sub shall have become untrue following the date of this Agreement, in either case such that the conditions in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) would not be satisfied (and such breach or failure to be true and correct is not curable prior to the Outside Date, or if curable prior to the Outside Date, has not been cured within the earlier of (i) twenty (20) days after the giving of notice thereof by the Company to Parent describing such breach or failure in reasonable detail and (ii) three (3) Business Days prior to the Outside Date); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.3(a) shall not be available to the Company if the Company is then in material breach of this Agreement or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue, in either case, so as to result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b); or

83

9.5 Effect of Termination and Abandonment.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement by either Parent or the Company as provided in Article IX, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given by the terminating Party to the other Party specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made. Except to the extent provided in Section 9.5(b), in the event of termination of this Agreement in compliance with Article IX, this Agreement shall be terminated and this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of any Party (or any of its Representatives or Affiliates); provided, however, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (i) no such termination shall relieve any Party from any liability or damages for Willful Breach of this Agreement prior to such termination or the requirement to make the payments set forth in Section 9.5(b) and (ii) the provisions set forth in this Section 9.5 and Article X shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b) The Company shall pay to Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, a termination fee in the amount of $575,000,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”) in the event that this Agreement is terminated:

(i) by either the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(a), or Section 9.2(b) and, in each case;

(A) any Person shall have made an Acquisition Proposal to the Company or its stockholders (whether or not conditional or not withdrawn) or publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional and whether or not withdrawn) to make an Acquisition Proposal with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and

(B) within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company enters into any Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal (with “fifty percent (50%)” being substituted in lieu of “fifteen percent (15%)” in each instance thereof in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” for purposes of this Section 9.5(b)(i)(B)), then immediately prior to or concurrently with the occurrence of such entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement, or

(ii) by Parent pursuant to Section 9.4, then promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination; or

(iii) by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3(b), then simultaneously with, and as a condition to, the effectiveness of any such termination.

In no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

84

(c) The Parties acknowledge that (i) the agreements set forth in this Section 9.5 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the Company Termination Fee is not a penalty, but is liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent, in the circumstances in which such fee 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 contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision, and (iii) without this agreement, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay the amount due pursuant to this Section 9.5, and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the fees set forth in this Section 9.5 or any portion of such fees, the Company shall pay to Parent its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount due pursuant to this Section 9.5 from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the annual rate of two percent (2%) plus the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment (or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than in the case of actual or intentional fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement by the Company and subject to Section 10.6, the Parties agree that in the event this Agreement is terminated under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this Section 9.5, the payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of Parent, Holding and Merger Sub, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, against the Company and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective directors, officers, employees and stockholders and Affiliates (the “Company Related Parties”) for all losses and damages suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee, other than in the case of actual or intentional fraud or any Willful Breach of this Agreement by the Company, none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE X

No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under applicable Law shall operate as a waiver of such rights and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law except to the extent specifically provided otherwise in Section 9.5.

10.5 Governing Law and Venue; Submission to Jurisdiction; Selection of Forum; Waiver of Trial by Jury. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS OR CONTROVERSIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, VALIDITY OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS, SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF

87

LAWS, RULES OR PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LAWS, RULES OR PRINCIPLES WOULD DIRECT A MATTER TO ANOTHER JURISDICTION. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Parties agrees that, except as specifically set forth in any commitment letter or definitive financing agreement to the contrary, all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Financing Sources in any way relating to the Financing or the performance thereof or the financing contemplated thereby, shall be exclusively governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles or rules or conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of laws of another jurisdiction.

(a) Each of the Parties irrevocably agrees that: (i) it shall bring any Proceeding in connection with, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, any instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exclusively in the Chosen Courts; and (ii) solely in connection with such Proceedings, (A) irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (B) irrevocably submits to the exclusive venue of any such Proceeding in the Chosen Courts and waives any objection to the laying of venue in any such Proceeding in the Chosen Courts, (C) irrevocably waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum, do not have jurisdiction over any Party or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by the Chosen Courts, (D) irrevocably waives any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts or from any Proceeding commenced in the Chosen Courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), (E) agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Proceeding in the manner provided in Section 10.2 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof and (F) agrees that it shall not assert as a defense any matter or claim waived by the foregoing clauses (A) through (E) of this Section 10.5(a) or that any Order issued by the Chosen Courts may not be enforced in or by the Chosen Courts. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding brought in the Chosen Courts shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the Parties and may be enforced in any other courts the jurisdiction of which each of the Parties is or may be subject, by suit upon judgment. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Parties agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim, or third-party claim of any kind or description (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise), against any Financing Source in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to any financing commitment or the Financing or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Borough of Manhattan or, if under applicable Law, exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the County of New York (and appellate courts thereof).

88

(c) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, CONNECTED WITH, ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING, IN CONNECTION WITH THE FINANCING OR ANY FINANCING COMMITMENT), ANY INSTRUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT DELIVERED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND CERTIFIES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTIES HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTIES WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 10.5(c).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that none of the Financing Sources shall have any liability or obligation to the Company or any of their Affiliates relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein (including with respect to the Financing). The Company and its Affiliates hereby waive any and all claims and causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against the Financing Sources that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, any Financing commitment or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

10.6 Specific Performance; Remedies.

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that irreparable harm would occur in the event that the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached or threatened to be breached and for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each Party agrees that, in addition to any other available remedies a Party may have in equity or at law, each Party shall be entitled to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement and to obtain or to seek an injunction restraining any breach or violation or threatened breach or violation of the provisions of this Agreement, consistent with the provisions of Section 10.5(a), in the Chosen Courts without necessity of posting a bond or similar instrument. In the event that any Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party shall allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law, and any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any bond or similar instrument.

(b) In the event that any Proceeding is brought by the Company to enforce the terms of this Agreement or for money damages, the “Per Share Merger Consideration” shall be deemed, for all purposes in that Proceeding, including any award of specific performance or damages, to be $135.00 in cash, without interest and less any required withholding Taxes.
