WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of the Strategic Transaction Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Special Committee”), has, by unanimous vote of all of the directors (other than Mr. Darwin Deason (the “Stockholder Party”), who abstained), (i) determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement, (ii) approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and (iii) subject to Section 4.02, resolved to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Merger Sub has unanimously approved and declared advisable, this Agreement and the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Parent has unanimously determined that (i) it is in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders to consummate the Merger provided for herein and (ii) subject to Section 4.03, resolved to recommend approval of the Parent Share Issuance by the stockholders of Parent;

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Stockholder Party is entering into an agreement in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Voting Agreement”) pursuant to which, subject to the terms thereof, the Stockholder Party has agreed, among other things, to vote his shares of the Company Common Stock in favor of the adoption of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, it is intended that (i) the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

THE MERGER

SECTION 1.01. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the Company shall be merged with and into Merger Sub at the Effective Time. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease and Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

SECTION 1.02. Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 9:00 a.m., local time, on a date to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the third Business Day (as defined in Section 8.03) after satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waiver of those conditions). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Closing may be consummated at such other time or date as Parent and the Company may agree to in writing. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”. The Closing shall be held at the offices of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, 425 Lexington Ave., New York, New York 10017, unless another place is agreed to in writing by Parent and the Company.

SECTION 1.03. Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), in such form as required by, and executed and acknowledged by the parties in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL, and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as Parent and the Company shall agree and shall specify in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

SECTION 1.04. Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth herein and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 1.05. Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws.

(a) The Certificate of Incorporation of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Certificate”), as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(b) The Bylaws of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Bylaws”), as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

SECTION 1.06. Directors of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

SECTION 1.07. Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CONSTITUENT

CORPORATIONS; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01. Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Class A Common Stock”), or the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Company Class A Common Stock, the “Company Common Stock”), or of any shares of capital stock of Parent or Merger Sub:

(a) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Merger Sub shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is directly owned by the Company or that is directly or indirectly owned by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; provided for the avoidance of doubt, that no shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by a Subsidiary which is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by the Company shall be canceled pursuant to this Section 2.01(b).

(c) Stock Owned by Subsidiaries of the Company. Each share of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by a Subsidiary which is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by the Company shall be converted into and become the number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Parent (“Parent Common Stock”) obtained by dividing the dollar value of the Class A Merger Consideration as of the last Business Day before the date hereof (determined using the closing price per share of Parent Common Stock on the NYSE on such date, as such price is reported on the screen entitled “Comp/CLOSE/PRICE” for Parent on Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) (or such other source as the parties shall agree in writing)) by the closing price per share of Parent Common Stock on the NYSE on such date, as such price is reported on the screen entitled “Comp/CLOSE/PRICE” for Parent on Bloomberg (or such other source as the parties shall agree in writing).

(d) Conversion of Company Common Stock.

(i) Subject to Section 2.02(e), each share of Company Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding (x) shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.01(b), (y) shares to be converted in accordance with Section 2.01(c) and (z) any Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive (A) 4.935 (the “Class A Exchange Ratio”) validly

issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Class A Stock Consideration”) and (B) $18.60 in cash, without interest (the “Class A Cash Consideration” and, together with the Class A Stock Consideration, the “Class A Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Class A Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Class A Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (a “Class A Certificate”) or book-entry shares (“Class A Book-Entry Shares”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Class A Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Class A Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e), without interest, in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Class A Certificate in accordance with Section 2.02(b), in the case of certificated shares, and automatically, in the case of book-entry shares.

(ii) Subject to Section 2.02(e), each share of Company Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding (x) shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.01(b), (y) shares to be converted in accordance with Section 2.01(c) and (z) any Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive (A) 4.935 (the “Class B Exchange Ratio”) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Class B Stock Consideration”), (B) $18.60 in cash, without interest (the “Class B Cash Consideration”), and (C) a fraction of a share of a new series of convertible preferred stock to be issued by Parent at the Effective Time and to be designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Parent Convertible Preferred Stock”), equal to the Preferred Exchange Ratio (the “Convertible Preferred Stock Consideration” and, together with the Class B Stock Consideration and Class B Cash Consideration, the “Class B Merger Consideration”), having terms as set forth in the form of Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) attached as Exhibit B hereto. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Class B Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Class B Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (a “Class B Certificate”) or book-entry shares (“Class B Book-Entry Shares” and, together with Class A Book-Entry Shares, the “Book-Entry Shares”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Class B Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Class B Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e), without interest, in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Class B Certificate in accordance with Section 2.02(b), in the case of certificated shares, and automatically, in the case of book-entry shares. “Preferred Exchange Ratio” means a number equal to (1) 300,000 divided by (2) the number of shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.

(iii) In the event that between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, there is a change in the number of shares of Parent Common Stock or

Company Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock issued and outstanding as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, subdivision, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, the Class A Exchange Ratio, Class B Exchange Ratio and the conversion related provisions of the Certificate of Amendment, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such action.

(iv) The right of any holder of Company Common Stock to receive the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e) shall, to the extent provided in Section 2.02(j), be subject to and reduced by the amount of any withholding that is required under applicable Tax Law.

(v) At the Effective Time, subject to and in accordance with Section 5.04, all Company Stock Options (as defined in Section 3.01(c)(iii)) issued and outstanding at the Effective Time under a Company Stock Plan (as defined in Section 3.01(c)(iii)) shall be assumed by Parent.

(e) Dissenting Shares.

(i) Shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by holders who have not voted in favor of or consented to the Merger and who are entitled to demand and have properly demanded their rights to be paid the fair value of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, and the holders thereof shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such stockholder of the Company shall fail to perfect or shall effectively waive, withdraw or lose such stockholder’s rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, such stockholder’s Dissenting Shares in respect of which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled to receive fair value under Section 262 of the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been canceled, at the Effective Time, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable (payable without any interest thereon), as compensation for such cancellation.

(ii) The Company shall give Parent (A) prompt notice of any notice received by the Company of intent to demand the fair value of any shares of Company Common Stock, withdrawals of such notices and any other instruments or notices served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and (B) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by an Order, (x) make any payment or other commitment with respect to any such exercise of appraisal rights, (y) offer to settle or settle any such rights or (z) waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or timely take any other action to perfect appraisal rights in accordance with the DGCL.

SECTION 2.02. Exchange of Certificates; Book Entry Shares.

(a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause the Surviving Corporation to deposit with a bank or trust company designated by Parent and reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Class A Certificates and Class B Certificates (together, the “Certificates”) and Book-Entry Shares, book-entry shares (or certificates if requested) representing shares of Parent Common Stock, book-entry shares (or certificates if requested) representing shares of Parent Convertible Preferred Stock and cash, in each case in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares or amount of cash (as applicable) into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(d). In addition, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time at or after the Effective Time, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e). All shares of Parent Common Stock, shares of Parent Convertible Preferred Stock, cash, dividends and distributions deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund”. The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Parent Common Stock, Parent Convertible Preferred Stock, cash, dividends and distributions contemplated to be issued and delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.02(c) out of the Exchange Fund. Except to the extent set forth in Section 2.02(h), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) Certificates. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e) (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and which shall be in customary form and contain customary provisions) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e). Each holder of record of one or more Certificates shall, upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of such Certificate or Certificates, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as practicable (i) the amount of cash to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(d), (ii) shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder of record) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (after taking into account

all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder), (iii) shares of Parent Convertible Preferred Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder of record) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder), (iv) any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and (v) cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of a Certificate which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and any cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e) may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the transfer or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Taxes have been paid or are not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02(b), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e). No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any payment to holders of Certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

(ii) Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Class A Merger Consideration or the Class B Merger Consideration, as applicable, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e) shall automatically upon the Effective Time (or, at any later time at which such Book-Entry Shares shall be so converted) be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (i) the amount of cash to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(d), (ii) shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder of record) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder), (iii) shares of Parent Convertible Preferred Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder of record) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder), (iv) any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c) and (v) cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e), and the Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be canceled.

(i) Certificates. No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Convertible Preferred Stock, as applicable, with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Convertible Preferred Stock, as applicable, that the holder thereof has the right to receive upon the surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.02(e), in each case until the holder of such Certificate shall have surrendered such Certificate in accordance with this Article II.

SECTION 4.02. No Solicitation by the Company.

(a) The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of its and their respective directors, officers or employees shall, and the Company shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives not to, directly or indirectly through another person, (i) solicit, knowingly initiate or knowingly encourage, or knowingly facilitate, any Takeover Proposal or the making or consummation thereof, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any information in connection with, or enter into any agreement with respect to, any Takeover Proposal, (iii) waive, terminate, modify or fail to enforce any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation of any person (other than Parent) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) take any action to make the provisions of any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination” or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation (including any transaction under, or a third party becoming an “interested stockholder” under, Section 203 of the DGCL), or any restrictive provision of any applicable anti-takeover provision in the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Takeover Proposal (and, to the extent permitted thereunder, the Company shall promptly take all steps necessary to terminate any waiver that may have been heretofore granted, to any person other than Parent or any of Parent’s Affiliates, under any such provisions) or (v) authorize any of, or commit or agree to do any of the foregoing. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section 4.02(a) by the Company. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions or negotiations with any person conducted heretofore with respect to any Takeover Proposal and request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Takeover Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, and which Takeover Proposal was not solicited after the date hereof in violation of this Section 4.02(a) and was made after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 4.02(a), the Company may, subject to compliance with this Section 4.02, (x) furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) pursuant to a customary confidentiality

agreement not less restrictive to such person than the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement (excluding paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement), provided that all such information has previously been provided to Parent or is provided to Parent prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to such person, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with the person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Takeover Proposal, if and only to the extent that in connection with the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors) that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

The term “Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer (or any communication or affirmation in support of any previously made inquiry, proposal or offer) from any third party relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, (i) any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of assets (including equity securities of any Subsidiary of the Company) or businesses that constitute 15% or more of the revenues, net income or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or 15% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any person beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company, or (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, share exchange or similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, pursuant to which any person or the stockholders of any person would own 15% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company or of any resulting parent company of the Company, in each of cases (i) through (iii), other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The term “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide proposal or offer from any third party that if consummated would result in such person (or its stockholders) owning, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the shares of Company Common Stock then outstanding (or of the shares of the surviving entity in a merger or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving entity in a merger) or more than 50% of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including equity securities of any Subsidiary of the Company), in each case, which the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) reasonably determines (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation), taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal or offer (including any break-up fee, expense reimbursement provisions, conditions to consummation and financing terms) and the person making the proposal or offer to be (i) more favorable to the stockholders of the Company from a financial point of view than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after giving effect to any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such offer or otherwise)) and (ii) reasonably capable of being completed on the terms set forth in the proposal.

(b) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof (including the Special Committee) shall (i) make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in Section 5.01(b)); or (ii) approve, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, adopt or recommend, a merger agreement, letter of intent, agreement in principle, share purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, share exchange agreement, option agreement or

other similar Contract (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 4.02(a)) or any tender offer providing for, with respect to, or in connection with, any Takeover Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval and subject to compliance with Section 4.02(d), the Board of Directors of the Company may (A) make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event if the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside legal advisors, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law and/or (B) make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and take any other action described in the preceding clause (ii), in response to a Superior Proposal if the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board of Directors of the Company shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing, at least three Business Days before taking such action, of its intention to do so and, during such three-Business-Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall engage in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend this Agreement in such a manner such that the failure by the Board of Directors to take such action would no longer reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. The Company’s notification shall have attached thereto (i) the most current version of any proposed agreement or a detailed summary of the material terms of any such proposal and the identity of the offeror if the Company intends to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Takeover Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal or (ii) a description of the Intervening Event if the Company intends to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event.

(d)(i) The obligation of the Company to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and to hold a vote of the Company’s stockholders on the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal), or by a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and (ii) in any case in which the Company makes a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 4.02, (A) the Company shall nevertheless submit this Agreement and the Merger to a vote of its stockholders and (B) the Joint Proxy Statement and any and all accompanying materials (including the proxy card (which shall provide that signed proxies which do not specify the manner in which the shares of Company Common Stock subject thereto are to be voted shall be voted “FOR” adopting this Agreement), the “Proxy Materials”)) shall be identical in form and content to Proxy Materials that would have been prepared by the Company had no Company Adverse Recommendation Change been made, except for appropriate changes to the disclosure in the Joint Proxy Statement stating that such Company Adverse Recommendation Change has been made and provided that the Company shall not be obligated to recommend to its stockholders the adoption of this Agreement or the approval of the Merger at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting to the extent that the Board of Directors of the Company (acting through the Special Committee, if then in existence) makes a Company Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 4.02, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 48 hours after receipt) notify Parent orally and in writing of any Takeover Proposal, such notice to include the identity of the person making such Takeover Proposal and a copy of such Takeover Proposal, including draft agreements or term sheets submitted in connection therewith (or, where no such copy is available, a reasonably detailed description of such Takeover Proposal), including any modifications thereto. The Company shall (x) keep Parent reasonably informed in all material respects of the status and details (including any change to the terms thereof) of any Takeover Proposal and (y) provide to Parent as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt or delivery thereof copies of all correspondence and other written material sent or provided to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from any person that describes any of the terms or conditions of any Takeover Proposal. The Company shall not, and shall cause the Company’s Subsidiaries not to, enter into any Contract with any person subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits the Company from providing such information to Parent.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 4.02 shall prohibit the Company from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a)(2) or (3) under the Exchange Act or making a statement required under Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that (i) compliance with such rules shall in no way limit or modify the effect that any such action pursuant to such rules has under this Agreement and (ii) in no event shall the Company or its Board of Directors or any committee thereof (including the Special Committee) take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section 4.02(b).

SECTION 4.03. No Solicitation by Parent.

(a) Parent agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of its and their respective directors, officers or employees shall, and Parent shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives not to, directly or indirectly through another person, (i) solicit, knowingly initiate or knowingly encourage, or knowingly facilitate, any Parent Takeover Proposal or the making or consummation thereof, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any information in connection with, or enter into any agreement with respect to, any Parent Takeover Proposal, (iii) waive, terminate, modify or fail to enforce any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation of any person (other than the Company) with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) take any action to make the provisions of any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination” or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation (including any transaction under, or a third party becoming an “interested shareholder” under, Section 912 of the New York Business Corporation Law (the “BCL”)), or any restrictive provision of any applicable anti-takeover provision in Parent’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws, inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Parent Takeover Proposal (and, to the extent permitted thereunder, Parent shall promptly take all steps necessary to terminate any waiver that may have been heretofore granted, to any person other than the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates, under any such provisions) or (v) authorize any of, or commit or agree to do any of, the foregoing. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any Representative of

Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section 4.03(a) by Parent. Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions or negotiations with any person conducted heretofore with respect to any Parent Takeover Proposal and request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining Parent Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Parent Takeover Proposal that the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Parent Superior Proposal, and which Parent Takeover Proposal was not solicited after the date hereof in violation of this Section 4.03(a) and was made after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 4.03(a), Parent may, subject to compliance with this Section 4.03, (x) furnish information with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries to the person making such Parent Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement not less restrictive to such person than the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement (excluding paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement), provided that all such information has previously been provided to the Company or is provided to the Company prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to such person, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with the person making such Parent Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Parent Takeover Proposal, if and only to the extent that in connection with the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), the Board of Directors of Parent concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors) that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

The term “Parent Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer (or any communication or affirmation in support of any previously made inquiry, proposal or offer) from any third party relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, (i) any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of assets (including equity securities of any Subsidiary of Parent) or businesses that constitute 15% or more of the revenues, net income or assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or 15% or more of any class of equity securities of Parent or any Significant Subsidiary of Parent, (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any person beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities of Parent, or (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, share exchange or similar transaction involving Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, pursuant to which any person or the stockholders of any person would own 15% or more of any class of equity securities of Parent or of any resulting parent company of Parent, in each of cases (i) through (iii), other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The term “Parent Superior Proposal” means any bona fide proposal or offer from any third party that if consummated would result in such person (or its stockholders) owning, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the shares of Parent Common Stock then outstanding (or of the shares of the surviving entity in a merger or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving entity in a merger) or more than 50% of the assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries (including equity securities of any Subsidiary of Parent), in each case, which the Board of Directors of Parent reasonably determines (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation), taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal or offer (including any break-up fee, expense reimbursement

provisions, conditions to consummation and financing terms) and the person making the proposal or offer to be (i) more favorable to the stockholders of Parent from a financial point of view than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after giving effect to any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by the Company in response to such offer or otherwise)) and (ii) reasonably capable of being completed on the terms set forth in the proposal.

(b) Neither the Board of Directors of Parent nor any committee thereof shall (i) make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change; or (ii) approve, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, adopt or recommend, a merger agreement, letter of intent, agreement in principle, share purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar Contract (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 4.03(a)) or any tender offer providing for, with respect to, or in connection with, any Parent Takeover Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval and subject to compliance with Section 4.03(d), the Board of Directors of Parent may (A) make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event if the Board of Directors of Parent concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside legal advisors, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law and/or (B) make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change, and take any other action described in the preceding clause (ii), in response to a Parent Superior Proposal if the Board of Directors of Parent concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board of Directors of Parent shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change unless Parent promptly notifies the Company, in writing, at least three Business Days before taking such action, of its intention to do so and, during such three-Business Day period, if requested by the Company, Parent shall engage in good faith negotiations with the Company to amend this Agreement in such a manner such that the failure by the Board of Directors to take such action would no longer reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Parent’s notification shall have attached thereto (i) the most current version of any proposed agreement or a detailed summary of the material terms of any such proposal and the identity of the offeror if Parent intends to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Parent Takeover Proposal that constitutes a Parent Superior Proposal or (ii) a description of the Intervening Event if Parent intends to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event.

(d)(i) The obligation of Parent to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting and to hold a vote of Parent’s stockholders on the Parent Share Issuance at Parent Stockholders’ Meeting shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Parent Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Parent Superior Proposal), or by a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change, and (ii) in any case in which Parent makes a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 4.03, (A) Parent shall nevertheless submit the Parent Share Issuance to a vote of its stockholders and (B) the Joint Proxy Statement and any and all accompanying materials (including the proxy card (which shall provide that signed proxies which do not specify the manner in which the shares of Parent Common Stock subject thereto are to be voted shall be

voted “FOR” the Parent Share Issuance), the “Parent Proxy Materials”)) shall be identical in form and content to Parent Proxy Materials that would have been prepared by Parent had no Parent Adverse Recommendation Change been made, except for appropriate changes to the disclosure in the Joint Proxy Statement stating that such Parent Adverse Recommendation Change has been made and provided that Parent shall not be obligated to recommend to its stockholders the Parent Share Issuance at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting to the extent that the Board of Directors of Parent makes a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) In addition to the obligations of Parent set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 4.03, Parent shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 48 hours after receipt) notify the Company orally and in writing of any Parent Takeover Proposal, such notice to include the identity of the person making such Parent Takeover Proposal and a copy of such Parent Takeover Proposal, including draft agreements or term sheets submitted in connection therewith (or, where no such copy is available, a reasonably detailed description of such Parent Takeover Proposal), including any modifications thereto. Parent shall (x) keep the Company reasonably informed in all material respects of the status and details (including any change to the terms thereof) of any Parent Takeover Proposal and (y) provide to the Company as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt or delivery thereof copies of all correspondence and other written material sent or provided to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from any person that describes any of the terms or conditions of any Parent Takeover Proposal. Parent shall not, and shall cause Parent’s Subsidiaries not to, enter into any Contract with any person subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits Parent from providing such information to the Company.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 4.03 shall prohibit Parent from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a)(2) or (3) under the Exchange Act or making a statement required under Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that (i) compliance with such rules shall in no way limit or modify the effect that any such action pursuant to such rules has under this Agreement and (ii) in no event shall Parent or its Board of Directors or any committee thereof take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section 4.03(b).

SECTION 5.01. Preparation of the Form S-4 and the Joint Proxy Statement; Stockholders’ Meetings.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (i) Parent and the Company shall jointly prepare and file with the SEC the joint proxy statement (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Joint Proxy Statement”) to be sent to the stockholders of Parent relating to the meeting of Parent’s stockholders (the “Parent Stockholders’ Meeting”) to be held to consider the Parent Share Issuance and to the stockholders of the Company relating to the meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Company Stockholders’ Meeting”) to be held to consider adoption of this Agreement and (ii) Parent shall prepare (with the Company’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Form S-4”), in which the Joint Proxy

Statement will be included as a prospectus, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger and the shares of Parent Common Stock into which the Parent Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible. Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing (including by responding to comments of the SEC), and, prior to the effective date of the Form S-4, Parent shall take all action reasonably required (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or filing a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction) to be taken under any applicable state securities Laws in connection with the Parent Share Issuance, the issuance of the Parent Convertible Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Parent Common Stock upon the conversion of the Parent Convertible Preferred Stock. Each of Parent and the Company shall furnish all information as may be reasonably requested by the other in connection with any such action and the preparation, filing and distribution of the Form S-4 and the Joint Proxy Statement. As promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 shall have become effective, each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Joint Proxy Statement to be mailed to its respective stockholders. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Form S-4 will be made by Parent, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Joint Proxy Statement will made by Parent or the Company, in each case without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement, so that either such document 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 promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the stockholders of Parent and the Company. The parties shall notify each other promptly of the time when the Form S-4 has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the Parent Common Stock or Parent Convertible Preferred Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Joint Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of all correspondence between any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Joint Proxy Statement, the Form S-4 or the Merger.

(b) The Company shall duly take all lawful action to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting on a date as soon as reasonably practicable following the effectiveness of the Form S-4 solely for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, and, if the Board of Directors of the Company has not made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or taken any of the actions described in Section 4.02(b)(ii), shall take all lawful action to solicit the adoption of this Agreement by such stockholders. The Board of Directors of the Company shall make the Company Recommendation and shall include such Company Recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement, and shall not (i) withdraw or modify or qualify (or publicly propose to withdraw or modify or qualify) in any manner adverse to Parent such recommendation or (ii) make any other public statement in connection with the Company Stockholders’ Meeting inconsistent with such

recommendation (any action described in clauses (i) or (ii) being referred to herein as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”); provided that the Board of Directors of the Company may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 4.02(b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company’s obligations pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5.01(b) shall, consistent with Section 4.02(d), not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal).

(c) Parent shall duly take all lawful action to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting on a date as soon as reasonably practicable following the effectiveness of the Form S-4 solely for the purpose of obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval, and, if the Board of Directors of Parent has not made a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change or taken any of the actions described in Section 4.03(b)(ii), shall take all lawful action to solicit the approval of the Parent Share Issuance by such stockholders. The Board of Directors of Parent shall recommend approval of the Parent Share Issuance by the stockholders of Parent, shall include such recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement (the “Parent Recommendation”), and shall not (i) withdraw or modify or qualify (or publicly propose to withdraw or modify or qualify) in any manner adverse to the Company such recommendation or (ii) make any other public statement in connection with the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting inconsistent with such recommendation (any action described in clauses (i) or (ii) being referred to herein as a “Parent Adverse Recommendation Change”); provided that the Board of Directors of Parent may make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 4.03(b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, Parent’s obligations pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5.01(c) shall, consistent with Section 4.03(d), not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to Parent of any Parent Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Parent Superior Proposal).

(d) The parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting on the same day at the same time.

(e) As promptly as practicable after execution of this Agreement (and, in any event, no later than 24 hours thereafter), Parent shall, in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, adopt this Agreement for purposes of the Merger.

SECTION 5.02. Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable Law and Contract, each party shall afford to the other party, and to the other party’s officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors and other Representatives, reasonable access (including for the purpose of coordinating transition planning with employees) during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice during the period prior to the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement to all of its and its Subsidiaries’ properties, books, Contracts, commitments, personnel and records as the other party may from time to time reasonably request, and, during such period, such party shall furnish promptly to the other party (x) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities Laws and (y) all other information concerning its and its Subsidiaries’ business, properties and personnel as the other party may reasonably request. If

any of the information or material furnished pursuant to this Section 5.02 includes materials or information subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege concerning pending or threatened legal proceedings or governmental investigations, each party understands and agrees that the parties have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is the desire, intention and mutual understanding of the parties that the sharing of such material or information is not intended to, and shall not, waive or diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or information or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege. All such information provided by either party that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, this Agreement, and under the joint defense doctrine.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company shall hold, and shall cause their respective Representatives (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) to hold, all information received from the other party, directly or indirectly, in confidence in accordance with, and shall otherwise abide by and be subject to, the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement dated as of July 22, 2009 between Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”); provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in Section 6 of the Confidentiality Agreement shall be inapplicable with respect to any of the transactions set forth in this Agreement or any proposals or negotiations by or on behalf of a party expressly permitted by this Agreement (including in response to a notice pursuant to Section 4.02(c) or Section 4.03(c)). The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. No investigation pursuant to this Section 5.02 or information provided or received by any party hereto pursuant to this Agreement will affect any of the representations or warranties of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement.

SECTION 5.03. Reasonable Best Efforts; Further Action.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees (i) to make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, (ii) to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law, (iii) to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods with respect to the approval of the Merger under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws, (iv) to use its reasonable best efforts to defend any Action, whether brought by a Governmental Entity or a third party, challenging the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby (provided, that nothing in this clause (iv) shall require any party hereto to agree to any amendment to or waiver under this Agreement), (v) to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, and (vi) to execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Each of Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in Section 5.03(a) to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party; (ii) keep the other party reasonably informed of the status of matters related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including furnishing the other with any written notices or other communications received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or any other U.S. or foreign Governmental Entity and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby; and (iii) permit the other party to review any communication given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with, the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other person, and to the extent permitted by the FTC, the DOJ or such other applicable Governmental Entity or other person, give the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences in accordance with Antitrust Law. For purposes of this Agreement, (A) “Antitrust Law” means the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the HSR Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, Foreign Antitrust Laws and all other Federal, state and foreign, if any, statutes, rules, regulations, orders, decrees, administrative and judicial doctrines and other Laws that are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or lessening of competition through merger or acquisition and (B) “Foreign Antitrust Laws” means the applicable requirements of antitrust competition or other similar Laws, rules, regulations and judicial doctrines of jurisdictions other than the United States.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in Sections 5.03(a) and (b), each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve objections, if any, as may be asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Antitrust Law, including using reasonable best efforts to defend any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Entity vacated or reversed). Neither party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, acquire or agree to acquire any business, person or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition would be reasonably likely to result in not obtaining the applicable clearance, approval or waiver from a Governmental Entity charged with the enforcement of any Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) In the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity or private party challenging the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement on any basis whatsoever, or

any other agreement contemplated hereby, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cooperate with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to defend against, contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided, that nothing in this paragraph (d) shall require any party hereto to agree to any amendment to or waiver under this Agreement).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 5.03 shall limit (i) a party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) or Section 7.01(b)(ii), as applicable, so long as such party has up to then complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Section 5.03, or (ii) a party’s right to take any action contemplated by Sections 4.02 or 4.03.

SECTION 5.04. Company Stock Options.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 5.04, at the Effective Time, each then outstanding Company Stock Option, whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time, will vest and become immediately exercisable in full and be assumed by Parent. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Company Stock Plan and award agreement, each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will otherwise continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Company Stock Option (including any applicable award agreement or other document evidencing such Company Stock Option) immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than terms relating to vesting) and be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Option Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock and (B) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Class A Common Stock of such Company Stock Option by the Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

(b) Company and Parent agree that prior to the Effective Time, Company shall, and shall be permitted under this Agreement to, take all corporate action necessary, including, but not limited to, amending any Company Stock Option, or Company equity award agreement evidencing such award, or Company Stock Plan, (1) to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.04(a) and (2) to the extent applicable, to preclude any automatic or formulaic grant of options, restricted stock units, or other awards thereunder on or after the date hereof. The parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to ensure that the conversion of any Company Stock Options which (A) are intended to be “incentive stock options” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) provided for in Section 5.04(a) shall be effected in a manner consistent with Section 424(a) of the Code and (B) shall be effected in a manner intended to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A of the Code.

(c) On the Closing Date, Parent shall register the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to Company Stock Options by filing an effective registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) or another appropriate form, and Parent shall maintain the

effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements with respect thereto for so long as such awards remain outstanding. Parent shall take all action reasonably required (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or filing a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction) to be taken under any applicable state securities Laws in connection with the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to Company Stock Options. Following the Closing Date, the Company Stock Plans will be administered by the Compensation Committee of Parent and Parent may grant equity awards under the Company Stock Plans to Company employees who continue employment with Parent or the Surviving Corporation or their Subsidiaries following the Closing Date, to the extent shares are available for grant under any such plan, in accordance with the mergers and acquisitions exemption to the equity compensation plan shareholder approval requirement under the NYSE rules.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be required to take any of the actions contemplated by this Section 5.04 if, and to the extent that, such action does not comply with the applicable Law of any foreign jurisdiction, and the parties shall agree in good faith prior to the Effective Time on an alternative that is intended to be reasonably comparable, or to take such other action in respect thereof that the parties agree in good faith to be appropriate.

SECTION 5.05. Employee Benefit Arrangements.

(a) Employee Stock Purchase Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions and take all other actions necessary so that, without any action on the part of any participant in the ESPP or any other person (i) participants in the ESPP shall not be permitted to increase their payroll deductions under the ESPP from those in effect on the date of this Agreement, (ii) no new “Plan Quarter” (as defined in the ESPP) shall start after the Plan Quarter in which the date of this Agreement occurs, and (iii) the ESPP shall be terminated effective immediately prior to the Effective Time.

non-U.S. Company Employees and shall provide to Parent all material details of the information and consultation in respect of the non-U.S. Company Employees pursuant to any applicable works council, labor agreements and non-U.S. Law.

SECTION 5.06. Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, assume and honor the obligations with respect to all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities as the same exist as of the date hereof, including advancement of expenses, for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company as provided in the Company Certificate, the Company Bylaws or any Contract between such directors or officers and the Company (in each case, as in effect on the date hereof), without further action, as of the Effective Time and such obligations shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms as of the date hereof.

(c) For six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect insurance that is no less favorable to the Insurance Indemnitees than the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, covering each person currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (each such person, an “Insurance Indemnitee”) (a complete and accurate copy of which has been heretofore delivered to Parent), on terms with respect to such coverage and amounts no less favorable to the Insurance Indemnitees than those of such policy in effect on the date hereof; provided, however, (i) prior to the Effective Time, the Company may substitute therefor and purchase a single premium tail policy with respect to such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance with policy limits, terms and conditions at least as favorable to the Insurance Indemnitees as the limits, terms and conditions in the existing policies of the Company; or (ii) if the Company does not substitute as provided in clause (i) above, then Parent may (A) substitute therefor policies of Parent, from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier, containing policy limits, terms and conditions at least as favorable to the Insurance Indemnitees as the limits, terms and conditions in the existing policies of the Company or (B) request that the Company obtain such coverage under its existing insurance programs (to be effective as of the Effective Time); provided, further, that in connection with this Section 5.06(c), neither the Company nor Parent shall pay a one-time premium (in connection with a single premium tail policy described above) in excess of the amount set forth in Section 5.06(c)(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter or be obligated to pay annual premiums (in connection with any other directors and officers insurance policy described above) in excess of the annual premiums set forth in Section 5.06(c)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter. It is understood and agreed that in the event such coverage cannot be obtained for such amount or less, then the Company and Parent shall be obligated to obtain the maximum amount of coverage as may be obtained for such amount.

(d) The provisions of this Section 5.06 (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable from and after the Effective Time by, each indemnified party and each Insurance Indemnitee, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by Contract or otherwise.

SECTION 5.07. Public Announcements. Except with respect to any Company Adverse Recommendation Change or Parent Adverse Recommendation Change made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing, and give each other the opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation, except as such party may reasonably conclude may be required by applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system.

SECTION 5.11. Employee Matters.

(a) For a period commencing on the Effective Time, and ending on December 31, 2011, the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than employees whose terms and conditions of employment are governed by a collective bargaining agreement, the terms and conditions of which shall be respected by Parent and the Surviving Corporation, who remain in the active employment of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries (the “Continuing

Employees”) shall receive compensation and employee benefits, including severance, that, in the aggregate, are no less favorable to the compensation and employee benefits provided to such employees as of the date of this Agreement, except for such changes to the compensation and employee benefits as may be necessary to comply with applicable Law; provided that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation nor any of their Subsidiaries shall have any obligation to issue, or adopt any plans or arrangements providing for the issuance of, shares of capital stock, warrants, options, stock appreciation rights or other rights in respect of any shares of capital stock of any entity or any securities convertible or exchangeable into such shares pursuant to any such plans or arrangements; provided, further, that no plans or arrangements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries providing for such issuance shall be taken into account in determining whether employee benefits are no less favorable in the aggregate.

(b) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring, and the Company shall take no action that would have the effect of requiring, Parent or the Surviving Corporation to continue any specific employee benefit plans or to continue the employment of any specific person.

(c) Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to recognize the service of each Continuing Employee as if such service had been performed with Parent with respect to any plans or programs in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate after the Effective Date (i) for purposes of eligibility for vacation, (ii) for purposes of eligibility and participation under any defined contribution retirement plan, health or welfare plan (other than any pension, post-employment health or post-employment welfare plan), (iii) for purposes of eligibility for and vesting of any company matching contributions, and (iv) unless covered under another arrangement with or of the Company, for benefit accrual purposes under any severance plan, except, in each case, to the extent such treatment would result in duplicative benefits.

(d) With respect to any welfare plan maintained by Parent in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such employees to the extent such conditions and exclusions were satisfied or did not apply to such employees under the welfare plans maintained by the Company prior to the Effective Time and (ii) provide each Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Effective Time in satisfying any analogous deductible or out-of-pocket requirements to the extent applicable under any such plan, to the extent credited under the welfare plans maintained by the Company prior to the Effective Time.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.11, the provisions of Section 5.11(a), (c) and (d) shall apply only with respect to Continuing Employees who are covered under Company Benefit Plans that are maintained primarily for the benefit of employees employed in the United States (including Continuing Employees regularly employed outside the United States to the extent they participate in such Company Benefit Plans). With respect to Continuing Employees not described in the preceding sentence, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to, comply with all applicable laws, directives and regulations relating to employees and employee benefits matters applicable to such employees; provided, however, that prior to December 31, 2011, no changes shall be made to the terms and conditions of each such Continuing Employee’s employment that would give

rise to severance obligations under the Laws applicable to such employee (other than the termination of such employee); provided, further, that nothing herein shall restrict Parent’s ability to terminate any Continuing Employee.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.11 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person (including for the avoidance of doubt any current or former employees, directors, or independent contractors of any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries), other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies with respect to the matters provided for in this Section 5.11.

SECTION 5.12. Takeover Laws. Each party and its Board of Directors shall (1) use reasonable best efforts to ensure that no state takeover Law (including Section 203 of the DGCL and Section 912 of the BCL) or similar Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Voting Agreement and (2) if any state takeover Law or similar Law becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Voting Agreement, use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Voting Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and the Voting Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Law on this Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Voting Agreement.

SECTION 5.13. Financing.

(a) Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter and, if entered into prior to the Closing, the definitive documentation with respect to the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter (the “Definitive Agreements”), (ii) negotiate and execute the Definitive Agreements on terms and conditions contemplated by the Commitment Letter (including any “flex” provisions thereof) and, upon execution thereof, deliver a copy thereof to the Company, (iii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent and its Subsidiaries in the Commitment Letter and Definitive Agreements that are within its control and comply with its obligations thereunder and not take or fail to take any action that would be reasonably expected to prevent or impede or delay the availability of the Financing, (iv) take each of the actions required of the Company and its Subsidiaries in paragraphs (b)(i) through (b)(xiii) below with respect to itself and its Subsidiaries, and (v) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter and Definitive Agreements in the event of a breach or other failure to fund by the Financing Sources that impedes or delays the Closing, including by seeking specific performance of the parties thereunder. In the event that all conditions to the Financing have been satisfied, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the lenders and the other persons providing such Financing to fund such Financing on the Closing Date (including by taking enforcement action to cause such lenders and other persons to fund such Financing). Parent shall

have the right from time to time to amend, replace, supplement or otherwise modify, or waive any of its rights under, the Commitment Letter or the Definitive Agreements, and/or substitute other debt (but not equity financing) for all or any portion of the Financing from the same and/or alternative financing sources, provided that any such amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification to or waiver of any provision of the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements that amends the Financing and/or substitution of all or any portion of the Financing shall not (A) expand upon the conditions precedent to the Financing as set forth in the Commitment Letter, (B) prevent or impede or delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (C) provide for terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) that are, in the aggregate, less favorable to Parent and the Company than those in the Commitment Letter; provided, further, that Parent shall be entitled to substitute debt securities convertible into Parent Common Stock with the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Parent shall be permitted to reduce the amount of Financing under the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements in its reasonable discretion, provided, that Parent shall not reduce the Financing to an amount committed below the amount that is required, together with the financial resources of Parent and Merger Sub, including cash on hand and the proceeds of loans under existing revolving credit facilities of Parent, to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the payment of the Required Refinancing Indebtedness), and provided further that such reduction shall not (I) expand upon the conditions precedent to the Financing as set forth in the Commitment Letter, (II) prevent or impede or delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (III) provide for other terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) that are, in the aggregate, less favorable to Parent and the Company than those in the Commitment Letter. If any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable or Parent becomes aware of any event or circumstance that makes any portion of the Financing unavailable, in each case, on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Commitment Letter and such portion is reasonably required to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the payment of the Required Refinancing Indebtedness), Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event alternative financing from alternative financing sources in an amount sufficient to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the repayment of the Required Refinancing Indebtedness), provided, that without the prior written consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld), no such alternative financing (a) shall be equity financing or (b) shall be on terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions and conditions to funding) that are not, in the aggregate, at least as favorable to Parent and the Company as those in the Commitment Letter. Parent shall give the Company prompt oral and written notice (but in any event not later than 48 hours after the occurrence) of any material breach by any party to the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements or of any condition not likely to be satisfied, in each case, of which Parent becomes aware or any termination or waiver, amendment or other modification of the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements. Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its effort to arrange the Financing and shall provide to the Company copies of all documents related to the Financing (excluding fee letters and engagement letters, except to the extent that such documents contain any conditions to funding, “flex” provisions or other substantive provisions (excluding provisions related solely to fees and economic terms agreed to by the parties) regarding the terms and conditions of the Financing). In the event that Parent commences an enforcement action to enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter or the Definitive

Agreements and/or cause the Financing Sources to fund the Financing (any such action, a “Financing Action”), Parent shall (x) keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of the Financing Action and (y) at the request of the Company, shall make Parent’s employees and Representatives (other than any of its investment bankers, financial advisors or Financing Sources) reasonably available to discuss the status of, and material developments with respect to, the Financing Action.

(b) The Company shall provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to provide, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each of its and their respective Representatives, including legal, tax, regulatory and accounting, to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent and/or the Financing Sources in connection with the Financing (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries), including, but not limited to, (i) providing information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Financing Sources (including information to be used in the preparation of an information package regarding the business, operations, financial projections and prospects of Parent and the Company customary for such financing or reasonably necessary for the completion of the Financing by the Financing Sources) to the extent reasonably requested by Parent to assist in preparation of customary offering or information documents to be used for the completion of the Financing as contemplated by the Commitment Letter, (ii) participating in a reasonable number of meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings with the parties acting as lead arrangers for the Financing and senior management and Representatives, with appropriate seniority and expertise, of the Company), presentations, road shows, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions (including accounting due diligence sessions) and sessions with the rating agencies, (iii) assisting in the preparation of documents and materials, including, but not limited to, (A) any customary offering documents, bank information memoranda, prospectuses and similar documents (including historical and pro forma financial statements and information) for any of the Financing, and (B) materials for rating agency presentations, (iv) cooperating with the marketing efforts for any of the Financing (including consenting to the use of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ logos; provided that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), (v) executing and delivering (or using reasonable best efforts to obtain from its advisors), and causing its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver (or use reasonable best efforts to obtain from its advisors), customary certificates (including a certificate of the principal financial officer of the Company or any Subsidiary with respect to solvency matters), accounting comfort letters (including consents of accountants for use of their reports in any materials relating to the Financing), legal opinions or other documents and instruments relating to guarantees and other matters ancillary to the Financing as may be reasonably requested by Parent as necessary and customary in connection with the Financing, (vi) assisting in (A) the preparation of and entering into one or more credit agreements, currency or interest hedging agreements, or other agreements or (B) the amendment of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ existing credit agreements, currency or interest hedging agreements, or other agreements, in each case, on terms satisfactory to Parent and that are reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Financing; provided that no obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any such agreements or amendments shall be effective until the Effective Time, (vii) as promptly as practicable, furnishing Parent and the Financing Sources with all financial and other information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Parent and/or the Financing Sources to assist in preparation of customary offering or information documents to be used for

the completion of the Financing as contemplated by the Commitment Letter, (viii) using its reasonable best efforts, as appropriate, to have its independent accountants provide their reasonable cooperation and assistance, (ix) using its reasonable best efforts to permit any cash and marketable securities of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be made available to the Parent and/or Merger Sub at the Closing, (x) providing authorization letters to the Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders and containing a representation to the Financing Sources that the public side versions of such documents, if any, do not include material non-public information about the Company or its Affiliates or securities, (xi) using its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Financing Sources benefit from the existing lending relationships of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (xii) providing audited consolidated financial statements of the Company covering the three (3) fiscal years immediately preceding the Closing for which audited consolidated financial statements are currently available, unaudited financial statements (excluding footnotes) for any interim period or periods of the Company ended after the date of the most recent audited financial statements and at least 45 days prior to the Closing Date (within 45 days after the end of each such period) and (xiii) cooperating reasonably with Parent’s Financing Sources’ due diligence, to the extent customary and reasonable and to the extent not unreasonably interfering with the business of the Company; provided that, until the Effective Time occurs, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall (1) be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee, (2) have any liability or any obligation under any credit agreement or any related document or any other agreement or document related to the Financing (or alternative financing that Parent may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or (3) be required to incur any other liability in connection with the Financing (or any alternative financing that Parent may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) unless reimbursed or indemnified by Parent to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company; provided, further, that (I) all non-public or other confidential information provided by the Company or any of its Representatives pursuant to this Section 5.13 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Parent and Merger Sub shall be permitted to disclose such information to potential syndicate members during syndication, subject to customary confidentiality undertakings by such potential syndicate members and (II) the Company shall be permitted a reasonable period to comment on any documents or other information circulated to potential financing sources that contain or are based upon any such non-public or other confidential information. Parent (A) shall promptly, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out of pocket costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives in connection with the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their Representatives contemplated by this Section 5.13, (B) acknowledges and agrees that the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives shall not have any responsibility for, or incur any liability to any person prior to the Effective Time under, the Financing or any alternative financing that Parent may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (C) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the arrangement of the Financing and any information used in connection therewith.

(c) In the event that the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements are amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, including as a result of obtaining alternative financing in accordance with Section 5.13(a), or if Parent substitutes other debt or equity financing for all or a portion of the Financing in accordance with Section 5.13(a)

(including any debt securities or securities convertible into Parent Common Stock, in each case, that reduces the amount of the bridge term loan facility contemplated by the Commitment Letter), each of Parent and the Company shall comply with its covenants in Section 5.13(a) and (b) with respect to the Commitment Letter or Definitive Agreements, as applicable, as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified and with respect to such other debt or equity financing to the same extent that Parent and the Company would have been obligated to comply with respect to the Financing.

Any Contract, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein means such Contract, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Laws) by succession of comparable successor Laws and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement is the product of negotiation by the parties having the assistance of counsel and other advisers. It is the intention of the parties that this Agreement not be construed more strictly with regard to one party than with regard to the others.

SECTION 8.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties (including by facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission).

SECTION 8.06. Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules and the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter), the Confidentiality Agreement, the Voting Agreement and any agreements entered into contemporaneously herewith (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and (b) are not intended to and do not confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any legal or equitable rights or remedies. Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (b):

(i) Following the Effective Time, each holder of Company Common Stock shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of Article II to the extent necessary to receive the consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Article II.

(ii) Prior to the Effective Time, each holder of Company Common Stock shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement for the purpose of pursuing claims for damages (including damages based on the loss of the economic benefits of the Merger, including the loss of the premium offered to such holder) under this Agreement in the event of a failure by Parent or Merger Sub to effect the Merger as required by this Agreement or a material breach by Parent or Merger Sub that contributed to a failure of any of the conditions to Closing from being satisfied. The rights granted pursuant to clause (ii) shall be enforceable only by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion, on behalf of the holders of Company Common Stock, and any amounts received by the Company in connection therewith may be retained by the Company.

(iii) Following the Effective Time, the provisions of Section 5.06 shall be enforceable by each indemnified party described therein and each Insurance Indemnitee and his or her heirs.

(iv) The provisions of Section 7.03(g) shall be enforceable by each Representative and Affiliate of a party and its successors and assigns.

(v) The provisions of Section 8.09(b) shall be enforceable by each Financing Source and its successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.07. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF.

SECTION 8.08. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.09. Specific Enforcement; Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware without proof of actual damages or otherwise (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Section 7.03(g) becomes operative, any Termination Fee paid in accordance with Section 7.03 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the other party to the extent set forth in Section 7.03(g).

(b) In addition, each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself, and hereby submits itself, to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware, in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and agrees not to plead or claim any objection to the laying of venue in any such court or that any judicial proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware and (d) consents to service of process being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 8.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereto 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 in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including but not limited to any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Commitment Letter or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, 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 (and appellate courts thereof). Without limiting other means of service of process permissible under applicable Law, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 8.02 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 8.10. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including but not limited to any dispute arising out of or relating to the Commitment Letter or the performance thereof. Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of

any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such party would not, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 8.10.

SECTION 8.11. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible.
