All capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Section 9.5 or as otherwise defined elsewhere in this Agreement unless the context clearly provides otherwise. Parent, each of the Merger Subs and the Company are each sometimes referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

WHEREAS, the Parties wish to effect a business combination through (a) the merger of Merger Sub 1 with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving entity (the “First Merger”) and (b) immediately following the First Merger, the merger of the Company, as the surviving entity of the First Merger, with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 being the surviving entity (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”);

WHEREAS, in connection with the First Merger, each outstanding share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock” or “Company Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) will be automatically converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”);

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board of Directors”) has, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Transactions”), including the First Merger and the issuance of shares of Parent Stock in connection therewith and the Second Merger, are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its stockholders;

WHEREAS, the Company Board of Directors has adopted resolutions approving the acquisition of the Company by Parent, this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions and declaring this Agreement advisable and recommending that the Company’s stockholders adopt this Agreement (the “Company Board Recommendation”) pursuant to Section 264 of the DGCL, and has done so unanimously;

WHEREAS, the board of directors of Parent (the “Parent Board of Directors”) has adopted resolutions approving the acquisition of the Company by Parent, this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, directing that the issuance of shares of Parent Stock in connection with the First Merger be submitted for consideration at the Parent Special Meeting and recommending that Parent’s stockholders vote to approve such issuance, and has done so unanimously;

WHEREAS, the stockholders and board of directors of each of the Merger Subs have approved this Agreement and determined that this Agreement and the Transactions, including the First Merger (as applicable) and the Second Merger, are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, such Merger Sub and its stockholders;

WHEREAS, the Parties intend that the Mergers will qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code and that this Agreement will constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Code; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Mergers and also prescribe various conditions to the Mergers.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 1.1 The Mergers. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, (a) at the First Effective Time, Merger Sub 1 shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub 1 will cease, with the Company surviving the First Merger (the Company, as the surviving entity in the First Merger, sometimes being referred to herein as the “First Surviving Corporation”), and (b) immediately thereafter, and as part of the same plan, at the Second Effective Time, the First Surviving Corporation shall be merged with and into Merger Sub 2, whereupon the separate existence of the First Surviving Corporation will cease, with Merger Sub 2 surviving the Second Merger (Merger Sub 2, as the surviving entity of the Second Merger, sometimes being referred to herein as the “Ultimate Surviving Corporation”). The Mergers shall have the effects provided in this Agreement and as specified in the DGCL.

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”) will take place at 7:00 a.m., Pacific Time, at the offices of Jones Day, 1755 Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto, California, on the fifth business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last of the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied or (to the extent permitted) waived (other than any such conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted) waiver of such conditions at the Closing) (the date of such satisfaction or waiver, the “Condition Satisfaction Date”), or on such other date or at such other place that is agreed to in writing by the Company and Parent. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date”.

Section 1.3 Effective Times. On the Closing Date, the Parties shall cause (a) a certificate of merger with respect to the First Merger (the “First Certificate of Merger”) to be

duly executed and filed with the DSOS as provided under the DGCL and make any other filings, recordings or publications required to be made by the Company or Merger Sub 1 under the DGCL in connection with the First Merger and, thereafter, (b) a certificate of merger with respect to the Second Merger (the “Second Certificate of Merger”) to be duly executed and filed with the DSOS as provided under the DGCL and make any other filings, recordings or publications required to be made by the First Surviving Corporation or Merger Sub 2 under the DGCL in connection with the Second Merger. The First Merger shall become effective at such time as the First Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the DSOS or on such other date and time as shall be agreed to by the Company and Parent and specified in the First Certificate of Merger (such date and time being hereinafter referred to as the “First Effective Time”). The Second Merger shall become effective at such time as the Second Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the DSOS or on such other date and time as shall be agreed to by the Company and Parent and specified in the Second Certificate of Merger (such date and time being hereinafter referred to as the “Second Effective Time”). The First Effective Time shall, in all events, precede the Second Effective Time.

(a) At the First Effective Time, the Company Certificate and the Company Bylaws shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, respectively, of the First Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(b) At the Second Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub 2, as in effect immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the applicable provisions of such certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

(a) The officers of Merger Sub 1 immediately prior to the First Effective Time, from and after the First Effective Time, shall be the officers of the First Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub 1 immediately prior to the First Effective Time, from and after the First Effective Time, shall be the directors of the First Surviving Corporation.

(b) The officers of the First Surviving Corporation immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, from and after the Second Effective Time, shall be the officers of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation. The directors of the First Surviving Corporation immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, from and after the Second Effective Time, shall be the directors of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.6 Plan of Reorganization. The Parties intend that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Mergers, taken together, will constitute integrated steps in a single “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3, which plan of reorganization the Parties adopt by executing this Agreement.

(a) Treatment of Company Common Stock and Allocation. At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or holders of any securities of the Company or of Merger Sub 1, each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (other than Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and other than any Dissenting Shares (collectively, “Excluded Shares”)) shall automatically be converted into the right to receive cash and shares of Parent Stock based on Elections made by the holders of Company Shares (but subject to Section 2.1(f), Section 2.5 and Section 2.6) as follows:

(i) Each such Company Share that is a Cash Election Share shall be converted into the right to receive cash in an amount (such amount, the “Per Share Cash Consideration”) equal to the sum of (A) $32.00 (such amount, the “Average Cash Per Share”) and (B) the product of (x) 0.5 (such number of shares, the “Average Parent Stock Per Share”) multiplied by (y) the VWAP of Parent Stock. The Per Share Cash Consideration shall be subject to proration as set forth in Section 2.1(a)(iv).

(ii) Each such Company Share that is a Stock Election Share shall be converted into the right to receive a number of Parent Shares (such number, the “Per Share Stock Consideration”) equal to the sum of (A) the Average Parent Stock Per Share and (B) the quotient of (x) the Average Cash Per Share divided by (y) the VWAP of Parent Stock. The Per Share Stock Consideration shall be subject to proration as set forth in Section 2.1(a)(v).

(iii) Each such Company Share that is an Undesignated Share or a Mixed Election Share shall be converted into the right to receive the combination (such combination, the “Per Share Mixed Consideration”) of (A) the Average Cash Per Share and (B) a number of Parent Shares equal to the Average Parent Stock Per Share.

(iv) In the event that the number of Cash Election Shares exceeds the Cash Election Number, then:

(A) each Stock Election Share (other than Excluded Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration, and

(B) each Cash Election Share (other than Excluded Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive both (x) an amount in cash equal to the quotient of the Available Cash for Cash Election divided by the aggregate number of Cash Election Shares (such amount, the “Satisfied Per Share Cash Consideration”) and (y) a number of Parent Shares equal to (i) the Per Share Cash Consideration minus the Satisfied Per Share Cash Consideration divided by (ii) the VWAP of Parent Stock.

(v) In the event that the aggregate number of Stock Election Shares exceeds the Stock Election Number, then:

(A) each Cash Election Share (other than Excluded Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration, and

(B) each Stock Election Share (other than Excluded Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) the number of Parent Shares equal to the quotient of the Available Stock for Stock Election divided by the aggregate number of Stock Election Shares (the “Satisfied Per Share Stock Consideration”) and (y) an amount in cash equal to (i) the Per Share Cash Consideration minus (ii) the product of the VWAP of Parent Stock and the Satisfied Per Share Stock Consideration.

(vi) The Exchange Agent shall make all computations, in consultation with Parent and the Company, as to the allocation and the proration contemplated by this Section 2.1(a), and any such computation shall be conclusive and binding on the Company stockholders. Parent and the Company may agree to make such rules as are consistent with this Agreement for implementation of the provisions of this Section 2.1(a) as shall be necessary or desirable to fully effect such provisions.

From and after the First Effective Time, all such Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each applicable holder of such Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, upon the surrender of such Company Shares in accordance with Section 2.2, the Per Share Stock Consideration, Per Share Cash Consideration or Per Share Mixed Consideration (subject to the proration and adjustment of the Per Share Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iv) and the Per Share Stock Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(v)) and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Stock, if any, pursuant to Section 2.6 (the “Fractional Share Consideration”), into which such Company Shares have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.1(a), together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 2.2(f) (such amounts, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”).

(i) Election Forms and Types of Elections. An election form in such form and substance as designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Election Form”) shall be delivered by the Company with the Joint Proxy Statement to each holder of record of Company Shares as of the Company Record Date and to each holder of a vested Company RSU. Parent shall make available one or more Election Forms as may be reasonably requested by any Person who becomes a holder of record of Company Shares or holder of a vested Company RSU after the Company Record Date and prior to the Election Deadline. Subject to the other provisions of this Article II, each Election Form shall permit the holder (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) to elect (an “Election”) to receive (A) the Per Share Stock Consideration (a “Stock Election”) with respect to all of such holder’s Company Shares, (B) the Per Share Cash Consideration (a “Cash Election”) with respect to all of such holder’s Company Shares, or (C) the Per Share Mixed Consideration (a “Mixed Election”) with respect to all of such holder’s

Company Shares. Any Company Shares (other than Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(c)) with respect to which the holder (or indirectly the beneficial owner) shall not have submitted to the Exchange Agent an effective, properly completed Election Form prior to the Election Deadline shall be deemed to be “Undesignated Shares” under this Agreement.

(ii) Proper and Timely Election. Any Election shall have been properly made and effective only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by 6:00 a.m. Pacific Time on the fourth business day after the Condition Satisfaction Date (or such other time and date as the Company and Parent may mutually agree) (the “Election Deadline”); provided, that (A) at least three business days prior to the Election Deadline, Parent shall publish a press release announcing the Election Deadline and (B) promptly following the close of trading on NASDAQ on the business day immediately preceding the day of the Election Deadline, Parent shall publish a press release announcing the VWAP of Parent Stock. An Election Form shall be deemed properly completed only if an Election is indicated for each Company Share covered by such Election Form. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the Person submitting such Election Form by delivery of a revocation or new Election Form that is actually received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. In the event an Election Form is timely revoked prior to the Election Deadline, the Company Shares represented by such Election Form shall automatically become Undesignated Shares unless and until a new Election is properly made with respect to such Company Shares on or before the Election Deadline. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, Parent shall have discretion, which it may delegate in whole or in part to the Exchange Agent, to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election Forms. Any decisions of Parent required by the Exchange Agent made in good faith in determining such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither Parent nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in an Election Form.

(c) Cancellation of Company Common Stock. At the First Effective Time, all Company Shares owned by any Company Subsidiary, Parent, the Merger Subs or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(d) Treatment of Merger Sub 1 Capital Stock. At the First Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Merger Sub 1 shall be automatically converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the First Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the First Surviving Corporation.

(e) Effect of Second Merger. At the Second Effective Time, by virtue of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of any of the Parties or holders of any securities of the First Surviving Corporation or of Merger Sub 2,

(i) Each share of capital stock of the First Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered therefor; and

(ii) Each share of common stock of Merger Sub 2 issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be automatically converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation.

(f) Adjustment. Any number or amount herein that is based upon the price of the Parent Stock or the number or fraction of shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Stock, as the case may be, and the Average Cash Per Share and/or Average Parent Stock Per Share, as applicable, shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock or Parent Stock, as applicable), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the number of shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Stock outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the First Effective Time.

(a) Exchange Fund. Prior to the First Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub 1 shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the exchange agent in connection with the First Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the holders of Company Common Stock for the purpose of receiving and holding their Certificates and Book-Entry Shares and shall obtain no rights or interests in the shares represented thereby. At or promptly after the First Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub 1 shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of Parent Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a) in book-entry form equal to the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration, and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of Per Share Cash Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration and any dividends under Section 2.2(f) to be paid in connection with the First Merger (such evidence of book-entry shares of Parent Stock and cash amounts, together with any dividends or other distributions with respect thereto, the “Exchange Fund”), in each case, for the sole benefit of the former holders of Company Shares. In the event that the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate amount of all Per Share Cash Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration and any dividends under Section 2.2(f), Parent shall, or shall cause Merger Sub 1 to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Exchange Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that (1) any investment of such cash shall in all events be limited to direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government, in commercial paper rated P-1 or A-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then

publicly available), and (2) no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this Article II. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation (at the election of Parent) on the earlier of (A) one year after the First Effective Time or (B) the full payment of the Exchange Fund.

(b) Procedures for Surrender. Promptly after the First Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Ultimate Surviving Corporation to, cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the First Effective Time represented outstanding Company Shares (the “Certificates”) or non-certificated Company Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) and whose Company Shares each were converted pursuant to Section 2.1 into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (i) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration into which such Company Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, and any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Stock in accordance with Section 2.2(f). Upon surrender of a Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation, together with such letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article II for each Company Share formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, to be delivered within ten business days following the later to occur of (x) the First Effective Time or (y) the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. If payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (A) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and (B) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid. Payment of the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the First Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article II, without interest thereon.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Shares. At the First Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the First Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Company Shares formerly represented thereby except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the First Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Ultimate Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund and Exchange Trust; No Liability. At any time following 12 months after the First Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) remaining in the Exchange Fund and the Exchange Trust that have not been disbursed, or for which disbursement is pending subject only to the Exchange Agent’s routine administrative procedures, to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Ultimate Surviving Corporation and Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration, payable upon due surrender of their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.2(b), without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Subs, or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share for any Per Share Merger Consideration, dividends, or other amounts properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof (such affidavit to be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Exchange Agent), the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, and any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Stock in accordance with Section 2.2(f); provided, however, that Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to deliver a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Parent Entities or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(f) Dividends or Distributions with Respect to Parent Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Stock with a record date after the First Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to the shares of Parent Stock issuable hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each

case until the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Parent Stock.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time and held by holders of record who did not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (or consent thereto in writing) and are entitled to demand, and have properly demanded, appraisal of such Company Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who have complied in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Appraisal Rights”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.1, but instead at the First Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Company Shares in accordance with the Appraisal Rights (it being understood and acknowledged that at the First Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares to the extent afforded by the Appraisal Rights); provided, however, that if any such holder (including any holder of Proposed Dissenting Shares) shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares under the Appraisal Rights, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall automatically converted into and shall represent the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration. “Proposed Dissenting Shares” means Company Shares whose holder provides a demand for appraisal to the Company prior to the Company Special Meeting and does not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, in each case in accordance with the Appraisal Rights.

(b) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands received prior to the First Effective Time by the Company for appraisal of any Company Shares, of any withdrawals of such demands and of any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to Appraisal Rights, and Parent shall have the opportunity, at Parent’s expense, to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(a) As of the First Effective Time, each outstanding restricted stock unit representing a right to receive Company Common Stock, including any restricted stock unit that

vests subject to the achievement of Company performance goals under any Company Equity Plan (the “Company RSUs”) that is not then vested and is held by an individual who will continue in the service of Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation at the First Effective Time (a “Continuing Service Provider”) shall be substituted by Parent into a Parent RSU in accordance with this Section 2.4. Each substituted Parent RSU shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same vesting and economically equivalent terms (including rights to dividend equivalents in cash) and conditions as applied to the applicable Company RSUs immediately prior to the First Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto, including any necessary changes to any issuance provisions, provided for or permitted in the applicable Company Equity Plan, in any award agreement or in such Company RSUs, by reason of this Agreement or the Transactions). As of the First Effective Time, the number of shares of Parent Stock underlying each such Parent RSU as so substituted shall be equal to the product of (i) the number of Company Shares underlying the applicable Company RSUs multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Stock Consideration, rounded down to the nearest whole number. To the extent a Company RSU was exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code immediately prior to the First Effective Time, the substitution of each Company RSU shall occur in a manner so as to remain exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code, and this Section 2.4 shall be construed consistent with such intent. Each payment with respect to a Parent RSU as to which payments will be made in installments is and will be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Any share of Company Common Stock underlying a Company RSU that is vested as of the First Effective Time (taking into account any acceleration of vesting that occurs by the First Effective Time under the applicable award agreement or other Contract with the award holder), but as to which such underlying share of Company Common Stock has not been issued by the First Effective Time, will be issued as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time and will be treated as outstanding Company Common Stock for purposes of Section 2.1 and shall receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1 based on an Election Form submitted by the holder thereof, subject to applicable tax withholding. Any shares of Company Common Stock underlying any Company RSU that has failed to vest as of the First Effective Time and that is held by an individual who is not a Continuing Service Provider shall be cancelled at the First Effective Time without payment of any consideration.

(c) As of the First Effective Time, each outstanding stock option award representing a right to purchase Company Common Stock that was granted pursuant to a Company Equity Plan and that is outstanding and exercisable as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time (each, a “Company Stock Option”) shall, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into and represent the right to receive an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) (A) the Per Share Cash Consideration, less (B) the exercise price per share attributable to the Company Stock Option. As soon as practicable (and in no event more than 30 calendar days) following the First Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation shall pay to each holder of a Company Stock Option the consideration (if any) required to be paid to any such holder pursuant to this Section 2.4(c), subject to Section 2.5.

(d) Not later than 15 days prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall send a notice to all holders of Company Stock Options, which notice shall notify such holders that (i) Parent, the First Surviving Corporation and the Ultimate Surviving Corporation will not be assuming any Company Stock Options at or following the First Effective Time or substituting new options therefor, (ii) all unvested Company Stock Options shall become vested and fully exercisable as of and effective immediately prior to the First Effective Time, and (iii) all Company Stock Options that are not exercised prior to the First Effective Time will be cancelled and paid the consideration in the manner set forth in Section 2.4(c).

(e) Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall adopt resolutions and take such other steps as are reasonably necessary for the treatment of the Company RSUs and Company Stock Options as contemplated by this Section 2.4.

(f) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event more than 10 business days following the Closing Date, Parent will file an appropriate Registration Statement on Form S-8 or other appropriate form with respect to the offering of the Parent Shares issuable upon vesting of the Parent RSUs (the “S-8 Registration Statement”) and will use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the S-8 Registration Statement thereafter for so long as any of such Parent RSUs remain outstanding.

(g) Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company will take all actions reasonably necessary to (i) terminate the Amended and Restated 1997 KLA-Tencor Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Company ESPP”) as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time, (ii) provide that any “Offering Period” (as defined in the Company ESPP) that would otherwise be in progress on the Closing Date will be shortened in accordance with Section 18 of the Company ESPP, and the last day of each such Offering Period shall be at least 10 business days prior to the Closing Date (the “Final Purchase Date”), with purchases made on the Final Purchase Date contingent upon the occurrence of the First Effective Time, and (iii) avoid the commencement of any new Offering Period under the Company ESPP at or after the Final Purchase Date and prior to the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the First Effective Time. Any Company Shares acquired under the Company ESPP prior to or on the Final Purchase Date will be treated as outstanding Company Shares for purposes of Section 2.1 (including with respect to the Election).

Section 2.5 Withholding. The Parent Entities, the First Surviving Corporation and the Ultimate Surviving Corporation shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable to a holder of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, any amounts that are required to be withheld or deducted with respect to such consideration under the Code, or any applicable provisions of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(a) No certificates, receipts or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Stock shall be issued upon the surrender or transfer for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, no dividend or distribution of Parent will relate to such fractional shares of Parent Stock, and such fractional shares of Parent Stock will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Shares converted pursuant to the First Merger who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Stock (after taking into account all Company Shares held at the Effective Time by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, from the Exchange Agent, at Parent’s election, either (i) a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share of Parent Stock representing that holder’s proportionate interest in the net proceeds from the sale by the Exchange Agent in one or more transactions of the aggregate of the fractional shares of Parent Stock which would otherwise have been issued under this Article II (the “Excess Shares of Stock”) or (ii) cash in accordance with Section 2.6(c) below. The sale of the Excess Shares of Stock shall be (i) executed on NASDAQ and (ii) made at such times, in such manner and on such terms as the Exchange Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with this Section 2.6, the Exchange Agent shall hold the net proceeds in trust (the “Exchange Trust”) for those holders. All commissions, fees, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, including the expenses and compensation of the Exchange Agent, incurred in connection with the sale of the Excess Shares of Stock shall be paid by Parent and the Ultimate Surviving Corporation. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash to be paid to holders of Certificates and Book Entry Shares in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Stock, the Exchange Agent shall make that amount available to those holders, without interest. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the net proceeds to which each holder of Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall be entitled by multiplying the aggregate amount of the net proceeds by a fraction of which (X) the numerator is the amount of the fractional shares of Parent Stock to which such holder of Certificates or Book Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all Certificates and Book Entry Shares delivered by such holder) and (Y) the denominator is the aggregate amount of fractional shares of Parent Stock to which all holders of Certificates and Book Entry Shares are entitled.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.6(b), Parent may elect, at its option exercised prior to the Effective Time, to pay to the Exchange Agent an amount in cash in United States dollars, to be deposited promptly following the Effective Time, sufficient for the Exchange Agent to pay each holder of Certificates or Book Entry Shares an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share of Parent Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled by (ii) the closing price for a share of Parent Stock on NASDAQ on the first business day immediately following the First Effective Time. In such event, all references in this Agreement to the net proceeds from the sale of the Excess Shares of Stock and similar references shall be deemed to refer to the payments calculated in the manner set forth in this Section 2.6(c).

Section 2.7 Further Assurances. At and after the First Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the Merger Subs, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the Merger Subs, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Ultimate Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Ultimate Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

(d) Each US Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code or Section 401(k) of the Code has timely received a favorable determination letter from the IRS covering all of the provisions applicable to such US Plan for which determination letters are currently available that such US Plan is so qualified, has a remaining period of time under applicable Treasury Regulations or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination, or may rely upon an opinion letter for a prototype or volume submitter plan, and each trust established in connection with any US Plan that is intended to be exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code has received a determination letter from the IRS that it is so exempt, has a remaining period of time under applicable Treasury Regulations or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination, or may rely upon an opinion letter for a prototype or volume submitter plan, and, to the knowledge of the Company, no fact or event has occurred since the date of such determination letter or letters from the IRS, if applicable, that could be expected to adversely affect in any material respect the qualified status of any such US Plan or the exempt status of any such trust.

Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in material liability to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, neither the Company nor any Company ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability under, arising out of or by operation of Title IV of ERISA

(other than liability for premiums to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation arising in the ordinary course of business), including any liability in connection with (i) the termination or reorganization of any employee benefit plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, or (ii) the withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, and, to the knowledge of the Company, no fact or event exists that could give rise to any such liability.

(f) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (either alone or in conjunction with any other event, such as termination of employment) will (i) result in any material compensatory payment or benefit (including severance, unemployment compensation, parachute or otherwise) becoming due to any current or former employee, officer, director or individual independent contractor of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (each, a “Worker”), or to any Governmental Authority or other person on behalf of any such Worker, from the Company, any Company Subsidiary, any Company ERISA Affiliate or any of their respective affiliates under any Company Plan, (ii) materially increase any benefits otherwise payable under any Company Plan, (iii) result in any acceleration of the time of any payment or vesting of any compensatory payment or benefits or (iv) result in the payment of any amount that, individually or in combination with any other such payment or benefit, would not be deductible pursuant to Code Section 280G (determined without regard to Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code) or Code Section 162(m).

(g) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in material liability to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, all contributions, premiums or payments required to be made with respect to any US Plan have been made on or before their due dates.

Section 4.20 Opinion of Financial Advisor. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Parent Board of Directors received an opinion from Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “Parent Financial Advisor”) to the effect that, as of the date hereof and based upon and subject to the various qualifications and assumptions set forth therein, the Per Share Merger Consideration to be paid by Parent pursuant to this Agreement is fair from a financial point of view to Parent. Parent will make available to the Company a copy of the written opinion promptly following the execution of this Agreement for informational purposes only.

Section 4.21 Merger Subs. Except for obligations or liabilities incurred in connection with its incorporation or organization or the consummation of this Agreement and the Transactions, neither Merger Sub has incurred any obligations or liabilities, has engaged in any business or activities of any type or kind whatsoever or has entered into any Contracts or arrangements with any person or entity.

(a) Parent has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy of the executed Bridge Commitment Letter from Goldman Sachs Bank U.S.A. and any related fee letters (redacted as to economic terms only, including fee amounts, provided that no redaction covers terms governing the aggregate amount, conditionality, availability, or termination of the debt financing contemplated therein). The Bridge Commitment Letter has not been amended or modified in any manner prior to the date of this Agreement, and no such amendment or modification of the Bridge Commitment Letter is contemplated as of the date of this Agreement. Neither Parent nor any of its affiliates has entered into any agreement, side letter or other arrangement relating to the financing of the Transactions, other than as set forth in the Bridge Commitment Letter and the fee letters related thereto that could adversely affect the availability, aggregate amount, conditionality or termination of the Financing on the Closing Date. The commitments contained in the Bridge Commitment Letter have not been withdrawn or rescinded in any respect. The Bridge Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and represents a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Parent and, to the knowledge of Parent, each other party thereto, to provide the financing contemplated thereby subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Conditions and, subject to the qualifications that: (i) such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting rights of creditors and (ii) that

equitable remedies, including specific performance and injunctive relief, are discretionary and subject to equitable defenses, and may not be ordered. Parent has fully paid (or caused to be paid) any and all commitment fees and other amounts that are due and payable prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement in connection with the Financing. As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably constitute a breach or default on the part of Parent or, to the knowledge of Parent, any other party thereto under the Bridge Commitment Letter. Parent has no reason to believe that it or any other party thereto will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term of the Bridge Commitment Letter. There are no conditions precedent related to the funding of the full amount of the Financing, other than the Financing Conditions and as expressly set forth in the Bridge Commitment Letter and any related fee letters. Parent has no reason to believe that (i) any of the Financing Conditions will not be satisfied on the Closing Date or (ii) the Financing will not be made available to Parent on the Closing Date.

(b) Assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Bridge Commitment Letter and the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement and performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, in each case, solely to the extent the breach of such representation, warranty or obligation would materially affect the satisfaction by Parent of the Financing Conditions, Parent has, or will have at Closing, all funds necessary to consummate the Transactions, including the making of all required payments in connection with the Transactions (including payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration and Fractional Share Consideration and all other amounts to be paid pursuant to this Agreement and associated costs and expenses of the Transactions required on or prior to the Closing Date). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing by Parent or any of its affiliates be a condition to any of Parent or the Merger Subs’ obligations hereunder. The Company agrees that a breach of this representation and warranty shall not result in the failure of a condition precedent to Company’s obligations under this Agreement, if (notwithstanding such breach) Parent is willing and able to consummate the Transactions on the Closing Date in accordance with the terms hereof.

Such notice shall be made orally and confirmed in writing, and shall indicate the identity of the Person making the Parent Competing Proposal, inquiry or request and the material terms and conditions of any such proposal or the nature of the information requested pursuant to such inquiry or request. In addition, Parent shall promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) after the receipt thereof, provide to the Company copies of any written documentation or communications (and a summary of any oral terms) material to understanding a Parent Competing Proposal which is received by Parent from any Person relating to such Parent Competing Proposal.

Each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Joint Proxy Statement, and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comment from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or mailing the Joint Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, each of the Company and Parent shall cooperate and provide the other a reasonable

opportunity to review and comment on such document or response in advance (including the proposed final version of such document or response).

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to relieve the Company of its obligations to submit this Agreement to its stockholders for a vote on the adoption thereof.

Each of the Company and Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to minimize any disruption to the businesses of the other Party that may result from the requests for access, data and information hereunder.

(b) Each of the Company and Parent will hold, and will cause its Representatives and affiliates to hold, any nonpublic information, including any information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.1, in confidence to the extent required by and in accordance with, and will otherwise comply with, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. The Company agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement is hereby amended to permit the inclusion of all Financing Sources (including convertible or equity-linked debt) (and representatives of such Financing Sources) in the term “Representative” as such term is defined therein.

(c) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, (i) of any notice or other communication received by such Party

The failure to deliver any such notice shall not affect any of the conditions set forth in Article VII or give rise to any right to terminate under Article VIII.

(d) Promptly after the date hereof, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent (i) a complete and correct copy of the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws or equivalent organizational documents, each as amended to the date of delivery, of each Company Subsidiary that is a not “significant subsidiary” (as defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X of the SEC) and (ii) a complete and correct copy of each of the Company Plans that are listed in Section 3.10(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter but which were not made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement.

(e) The Company shall deliver or make available to Parent a report prepared by Ernst & Young LLP detailing the possible tax consequences of Section 280G of the Code as applicable (i) with respect to each current or former Worker who participates in the Company’s Executive Severance Plan or 2010 Executive Severance Plan, using reasonable best efforts to deliver such report within 30 days after the date of this Agreement, and (ii) with respect to each current or former Worker who is reasonably likely to be a “disqualified individual” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1), within a reasonable period prior to the Closing Date.

(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 under applicable Laws to consummate the Transactions as soon as practicable after the date hereof, including (i) preparing and filing, in consultation with the other Party and as promptly as practicable and advisable after the date hereof, all documentation to effect all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings and other documents and to obtain as promptly as practicable all waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits and authorizations

necessary or advisable to be obtained from any Governmental Authority in order to consummate the Transactions and (ii) taking all steps as may be necessary to obtain all such waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, licenses, registrations, permits, authorizations, orders and approvals, including defending or contesting any claim, suit, action or other proceeding brought by a Third Party, including any Governmental Authorities, that would otherwise prevent or materially impede, interfere with, hinder or delay the consummation of the Transactions. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Party agrees to make all necessary applications, notices, petitions and filings required (and thereafter make any other required submissions and respond as promptly as practicable to any requests for additional information or documentary material) with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions (A) with the DOJ and the FTC on a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions, (B) with the German Federal Cartel Office (Bundeskartellamt), (C) in China, and (D) in the jurisdictions set forth in Section 6.2(a) of the Parent Disclosure Letter (the foregoing, collectively, the “Specified Antitrust Authorities”). The Parties agree to make the filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 30 days after the execution of this Agreement (unless another date is mutually agreed between the Parties), and make the filings contemplated by clauses (B), (C) and (D) of the preceding sentence as promptly as practicable, and will endeavor to make such filings within 60 days after the execution of this Agreement (unless another date is mutually agreed between the Parties). The Parties agree to use reasonable best efforts to supply as promptly as practicable and advisable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act and to take all other actions necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon as practicable.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in Section 6.2(a) to obtain all waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations for the Transactions under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, (i) cooperate in all respects and consult 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, including by allowing the other Party to have a reasonable opportunity to review in advance and comment on drafts of filings and submissions; (ii) promptly inform the other Party of any communication received by such Party from, or given by such Party to, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) or any other Governmental Authority, by promptly providing copies to the other Party of any such written communications, and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the Transactions; provided, however, that materials may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of Parent, Company or any of their Subsidiaries, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns; and (iii) permit the other Party to review in advance any communication that it gives to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting, substantive telephone call or conference with, the DOJ, the FTC or any other Governmental Authority, or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other Person (provided, however, that materials may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of Parent, Company or any of their Subsidiaries, (B) as necessary to

comply with contractual arrangements, and (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns), and to the extent permitted by the DOJ, the FTC or any other applicable Governmental Authority or other Person, give the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate in any in-person meetings with the DOJ, the FTC or any other Governmental Authority or other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary will be required to (i) divest, dispose of or hold separate any assets or businesses of Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (ii) agree to divest, dispose or hold separate any assets or businesses of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or (iii) agree to or enter into any license or condition or commit to take any action that limits in any manner its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the assets or businesses of Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the extent such license, condition or action is not commercially reasonable or materially impacts in an adverse manner the benefits to be derived by Parent from the Transactions. The Company (x) will not, in connection with obtaining regulatory approval of the Transactions, take or agree to take any action identified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence without the prior written consent of Parent and (y) if so requested by Parent, will use reasonable best efforts to effect any license, divestiture, disposition or hold separate of any of the Company’s assets or businesses necessary to obtain clearances or approvals required for the Closing under the Antitrust Laws, provided that such action is conditioned on the consummation of the Mergers. The Parties shall consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, regarding the form and content of any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of either Party in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Law prior to their submission.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 6.2(c) of the Parent Disclosure Letter, each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all consents, waivers, authorizations and approvals of all third parties (other than Governmental Authorities, which are the subject of clauses (a) and (b) above) necessary, proper or advisable for the consummation of the Transactions and to provide any notices to third parties required to be provided by them prior to the First Effective Time; provided that, without consulting with Parent, the Company shall not incur any significant expense or liability, enter into any significant new commitment or agreement or agree to any significant modification to any contractual arrangement to obtain such consents or certificates.

Section 6.3 Publicity. Parent and the Company have agreed upon the initial joint press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement, and will issue such press release promptly following the execution of this Agreement. Thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in effect, neither the Company nor Parent, nor any of their respective affiliates, shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to the Transactions or this Agreement without the prior consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such Party determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is required by applicable Law or by any listing agreement with or the listing rules of a national securities exchange or trading market to issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to the Transactions or this Agreement, in which event such Party shall endeavor, on a basis reasonable

under the circumstances, to provide a meaningful opportunity to the other Party to review and comment upon such press release or other announcement in advance and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required by this Section 6.3 to provide any such review or comment to Parent in connection with the receipt and existence of a Company Competing Proposal or a Company Change of Recommendation and matters related thereto; provided, further, that Parent shall not be required by this Section 6.3 to provide any such review or comment to the Company in connection with the receipt and existence of a Parent Competing Proposal or a Parent Change of Recommendation and matters related thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.3, (i) Parent and the Company may make press releases or public announcements concerning this Agreement or the Transactions that consist solely of information previously disclosed in all material respects in previous press releases or announcements made by Parent and/or the Company in compliance with this Section 6.3, and (ii) Parent and the Company may make public statements in response to specific questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst conference calls, so long as any such statements consist solely of information previously disclosed in all material respects in previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the Company and Parent and do not reveal material, non-public information regarding the other Parties, this Agreement or the Transactions.

Section 6.4 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification. For not less than six years from and after the First Effective Time, the Ultimate Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent agrees to cause the Ultimate Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors, officers and employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including advancing attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any actual or threatened claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Law; provided such Indemnified Party agrees in advance to return any such funds to which a court of competent jurisdiction has determined in a final, nonappealable judgment such Indemnified Party is not ultimately entitled), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, investigation, suit or proceeding in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the First Effective Time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Mergers or any of the other Transactions), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the First Effective Time, in connection with such persons serving as an officer, director, employee or other fiduciary of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or of any Person if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, to the fullest extent permitted by Law or provided pursuant to the Company Governing Documents or the organizational documents of any Company Subsidiary or any indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement. The Parties agree that all rights to elimination of liability, indemnification and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the First Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the First Effective Time, now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in their respective certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or comparable organizational documents) or in any agreement shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. For six

years after the Effective Time, the Ultimate Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained in effect the provisions in (i) the Company Governing Documents and (ii) any other agreements of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries with any Indemnified Party, in each case, regarding elimination of liability, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses that are in existence on the date of this Agreement, and no such provision shall be amended, modified or repealed in any manner that would adversely affect the rights or protections thereunder of any such Indemnified Party in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the First Effective Time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Mergers or any of the other Transactions). Parent shall cause the Ultimate Surviving Corporation to provide, for an aggregate period of not less than six years from the First Effective Time, the Company’s current directors and officers an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring prior to the First Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is no less favorable than the Company’s existing policy or, if insurance coverage that is no less favorable is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that the Ultimate Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Company may prior to the First Effective Time substitute therefor a single premium tail coverage with respect to D&O Insurance (which may include provision of Side B coverage) with an aggregate cost not to exceed $2,500,000, and Parent shall cause any such tail policy coverage to be maintained in full force and effect for its full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Ultimate Surviving Corporation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Indemnified Party notifies Parent on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the First Effective Time of a matter in respect of which such Person may seek indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.4, the provisions of this Section 6.4 shall continue in effect with respect to such matter until the final disposition of all claims, actions, investigations, suits and proceedings relating thereto. In the event Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Ultimate Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4. The rights and obligations under this Section 6.4 shall survive consummation of the Mergers and shall not be terminated or amended in a manner that is adverse to any Indemnified Party without the written consent of such Indemnified Party.

Section 6.5 Takeover Statutes. The Parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts (a) to take all action necessary so that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to the Mergers or any of the other Transactions and (b) if any such Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to any of the foregoing, to take all action necessary so that the Mergers and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to eliminate or minimize the effect of such Takeover Statute on the Mergers and the other Transactions.

Section 6.6 Obligations of Merger Subs. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause each of the Merger Subs, the First Surviving Corporation and the Ultimate Surviving

Corporation to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, including the Mergers, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(a) As a result of the Mergers, at the Second Effective Time, each of the then-current employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall become employees of the Ultimate Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries (the “Continuing Employees”) by operation of Law.

(b) Base Salary. Effective as of the Second Effective Time and until the earlier of (i) December 31, 2016 and (ii) the termination of the Continuing Employee’s service (the “Protection Period”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Ultimate Surviving Corporation or any of their respective affiliates or successors (collectively, the “Parent Employers”), to maintain each Continuing Employee’s base salary or base hourly wage, as applicable, as in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time.

(i) During the Protection Period, Parent shall cause the Parent Employers to assume, honor and fulfill the Company’s obligations to each Continuing Employee under those Company Plans that (x) are short term cash incentive plans listed on Section 3.10(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (y) in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the First Effective Time with respect to the performance period that is ongoing as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time under such Company Plan.

(ii) If the First Effective Time occurs prior to the end of the Company’s 2016 fiscal year, and Parent expects to have a Continuing Employee participate in short term cash incentive plan of the Parent Employers commencing January 1, 2017 (i.e., the beginning of Parent’s compensation year), then Parent shall cause the Parent Employers to adopt a short term cash incentive arrangement for such Continuing Employee for the period beginning on the first day of what would have otherwise been the start of the Company’s 2017 fiscal year through December 31, 2016.

(d) Health, Welfare and 401(k) Benefits. During the Protection Period, Parent shall cause the Parent Employers to permit each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) to participate (i) in those Company Plans that (x) are health, welfare and Code Section 401(k) plans listed on Section 3.10(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (y) were in effect at the First Effective Time or (ii) in the same type of health, welfare or Code Section 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by the Parent Employers for the benefit of similarly situated employees of the Parent Employers, on the same terms and conditions as apply to such Parent Employer employees, in each case of (i) and (ii), other than with respect to retiree health and welfare plans and defined benefit plans.

(e) Service Credit. Effective as of the First Effective Time and thereafter, Parent shall cause the Parent Employers to recognize and take into account with respect to each

Continuing Employee his or her period of employment with the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (including any current or former affiliate of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any predecessor of the Company or any Company Subsidiary) for purposes of eligibility to participate, level of benefits, and vesting of benefits, under the employee benefit plans maintained by the Parent Employers for the benefit of the Continuing Employees, including vacation or other paid-time-off plans or arrangements, Code Section 401(k) plans or other defined contribution retirement plans, severance practices, and health and welfare plans, except that the Parent Employers shall not be required to recognize and take into account such service (i) for purposes of determining any accrued benefit under any defined benefit pension plan or retiree health or welfare plan, (ii) for purposes of vesting credit for any awards granted under any long term incentive programs after the First Effective Time, (iii) to the extent the Company did not recognize such period of employment under a plan or program of a similar type maintained, sponsored by or contributed to by the Company prior to the First Effective Time, or (iv) if such recognition of service would result in a duplication of benefits.

(f) Waiver of Limitations. During the Protection Period, Parent shall cause the Parent Employers to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) ensure that no eligibility waiting periods, actively-at-work requirements or pre-existing condition limitations or exclusions shall apply with respect to the Continuing Employees under the applicable health and welfare benefits plan of the Parent Employers made available to the Continuing Employees during the Protection Period (except to the extent such periods, requirements, limitations or exclusions were applicable under the Company Plans immediately prior to the First Effective Time), and (ii) waive any and all evidence of insurability requirements under the health and welfare benefit plans of the Parent Employers made available to the Continuing Employees with respect to such Continuing Employees to the extent such evidence of insurability requirements were not applicable to the Continuing Employees under the Company Plans of a similar type immediately prior to the First Effective Time.

(g) Severance. Parent shall, or shall cause the Ultimate Surviving Corporation to, assume, honor and fulfill the terms of the Company’s Executive Severance Plan and 2010 Executive Severance Plan. The Company shall have taken all actions necessary to ensure that each and every severance benefit plan or practice governed by ERISA and covering any Continuing Employee prior to the First Effective Time will be terminated as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time and no Parent Employer will have any liability in respect of any such ERISA severance plan or practice from and after the First Effective Time with respect to any Continuing Employee. From the First Effective Time through the first anniversary of the First Effective Time, the Parent Employers shall ensure that each Continuing Employee is covered by the severance plans and practices of the Parent Employers that are applicable to similarly situated Parent Employer employees, except to the extent that the Company did not provide severance plans or practices to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the First Effective Time or if such coverage would result in a duplication of benefits.

(h) Vacation. At the First Effective Time, the Parent Employers will recognize and honor each Continuing Employee’s accrued but unused vacation or paid time off balance.

(i) No Third Party Rights. This Section 6.7 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 6.7, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 6.7. Nothing contained herein shall (i) be treated as an amendment of any particular Company Plan, (ii) give any third party any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.7 or (iii) require Parent or any Parent Employer to maintain any particular Company Plan or other employee benefit plan, program or arrangement. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Continuing Employee or any other employee or service provider of the Company or any of its affiliates any right to continue in the employ or service of Parent, the Ultimate Surviving Corporation or any affiliate of Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent, the Ultimate Surviving Corporation or any affiliate of Parent, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any Continuing Employee or any other service provider, at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

Section 6.8 Termination of Company Plans. If requested by Parent at least 10 days prior to the Closing, then effective as of no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing, the Company will terminate each of the Company Plans intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code.

Section 6.9 Rule 16b-3. The Board of Directors of the Company, or a committee of non-employee Directors thereof, shall, prior to the First Effective Time, adopt a resolution providing in substance that the dispositions by the Company Insiders of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) in exchange for shares of Parent Stock pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are intended to be exempt from liability pursuant to Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act in accordance with Rule 16b-3 and interpretations of the SEC thereunder. Thereafter and, assuming that the Company delivers to Parent the Company Section 16 Information in a timely fashion prior to the First Effective Time, the Board of Directors of Parent, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall reasonably promptly thereafter and in any event prior to the First Effective Time adopt a resolution providing in substance that the receipt by the Company Insiders of Parent Stock in exchange for Company Common Stock and derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock pursuant to the Transactions are in accordance with Rule 16b-3 and interpretations of the SEC thereunder.

Section 6.10 Security Holder Litigation. Each Party shall provide the other Party prompt oral notice of any litigation brought by any stockholder of that Party against such Party, any of its Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective directors relating to the Mergers, this Agreement or any of the Transactions, and will provide the other Party with updates and such information as such other Party will reasonably request with respect to the status of the litigation and discussions between the parties to such litigation (unless the provision of such updates and information could reasonably be expected to result in a loss of attorney-client privilege). The Company will give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense of and settlement discussions with respect to any such litigation and will not make any payment or settlement offer prior to the First Effective Time with respect to any such litigation unless Parent will have

consented in writing to such payment or settlement, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, except that Parent shall not be obligated to consent to any settlement which does not include a full release of Parent and its affiliates or which imposes an injunction or other equitable relief after the First Effective Time upon Parent or any of its affiliates. In the event of, and to the extent of, any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Section 6.10 and Section 5.1, Section 5.2 or Section 6.2, the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall control.

Section 6.11 Delisting. Each of the Parties agrees to cooperate with the other Parties in taking, or causing to be taken, all actions necessary to delist the Company Common Stock from NASDAQ and terminate its registration under the Exchange Act, provided that such delisting and termination shall not be effective until after the First Effective Time.

(a) Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Mergers, taken together, to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. None of the Parties shall (and each of the Parties shall cause their respective Subsidiaries not to) take any action, or fail to take any action, that could reasonably be expected to cause the Mergers, taken together, to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The Parties intend to report and, except to the extent otherwise required by Law, shall report, for all tax purposes, the Mergers, taken together, as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Each Representation Letter shall be dated on or before the date of such Tax Opinion and shall not have been withdrawn or modified in any material respect.

Section 6.14 Stock Exchange Listing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Stock to be issued in the First Merger to be approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the First Effective Time.

Section 6.15 The Company’s Financing Cooperation. The Company agrees to, and to cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to provide such assistance (and to use reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective personnel and advisors to provide such assistance) with the Financing as is reasonably requested by Parent, including using reasonable best efforts with respect to: (a) participation in, and assistance with, the marketing efforts related

to the Financing, including participation, including by senior management of the Company, in, and assistance with, the preparation of presentations, meetings with rating agencies, roadshows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and meetings (including one-on-one meetings or conference calls with parties acting as agents or arrangers for, and prospective lenders of and investors in, the Financing); (b) delivery to Parent and its Financing Sources as promptly as reasonably practicable of the Financing Deliverables, the Financing Information and such financial information relating to the Company customary or reasonably necessary for the completion of the Financing to the extent reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the preparation of customary offering or information documents to be used for the Financing, including (i) offering documents and memoranda, private placement memoranda, bank information memoranda, confidential information memoranda, prospectuses and similar documents for any portion of such Financing and (ii) materials for rating agency presentations; (c) cause its independent auditors, accountants and external and internal counsel (including local counsel) to cooperate with the Financing consistent with customary practices, including by providing customary review of interim financial statements as provided in Statement on Auditing Standards No. 100, “comfort letters” (including customary “negative assurances”), opinions of counsel (which shall be limited to opinions concerning the Company of a type customarily delivered by counsel to target companies and shall not include opinions regarding enforceability or similar matters) and customary assistance with the due diligence activities of Parent and the Financing Sources, and customary consents to the inclusion of audit reports in any relevant marketing materials, registration statements and related government filings; (d) ensuring that the Financing benefits from the existing lending relationships of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries; and (e) causing to be timely filed with the SEC all required periodic and other reports. For purposes of clarity, such assistance shall include (A) if requested by Parent, using reasonable best efforts to assist Parent in obtaining prior to Closing payoff letters from the Company’s lenders in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent with respect thereto and (B) making all requisite notices with respect to the Company’s outstanding Indebtedness regarding the change in control contemplated hereby. The Company hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Financing, 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 the Company Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any Company Subsidiary. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between the Company and Parent (or its affiliates), the Company agrees that Parent and its affiliates may share customary projections with respect to the Company and its business with the Financing Sources identified in the Bridge Commitment Letter, and that Parent, its affiliates and such Financing Sources may share such information with potential Financing Sources in connection with any marketing efforts in connection with the Financing, provided that the recipients of such information agree to customary confidentiality arrangements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective directors or officers or other personnel shall be required by this Section 6.15 (i) to take any action or provide any assistance that unreasonably interferes with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (ii) to adopt resolutions or give consents to approve or authorize the execution of the Financing or the Debt Financing Documents; or (iii) to execute or deliver any certificate, document, instrument or agreement that is effective prior to the Closing or agree to any change or modification of any existing certificate, document, instrument or agreement that is effective prior to the Closing

(other than a payoff letter with respect to the Credit Agreement) with respect to the Financing. Parent shall (1) promptly upon written request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the assistance contemplated by this Section 6.15 and (2) indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries and its and their respective directors, officers, personnel and advisors from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred in connection with the Financing or any assistance or activities in connection therewith, except to the extent arising from the willful misconduct, gross negligence, fraud or intentional misrepresentation of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent shall take, or use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be taken, all actions and do, or use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be done, all things necessary to obtain the Financing on or prior to the Closing Date on the terms and conditions set forth in the Bridge Commitment Letter, including with respect to: (i) maintaining in effect the Bridge Commitment Letter and complying with its obligations thereunder; (ii) participation by senior management of Parent in, and assistance with, the preparation of rating agency presentations and meetings with rating agencies; (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all conditions to the Financing (including the Financing Conditions) that are within Parent’s control; (iv) negotiating, executing and delivering Debt Financing Documents that reflect the terms contained in the Bridge Commitment Letter (including any “market flex” provisions related thereto); and (v) drawing up to the full amount of the Financing and causing the Financing Sources to fund the Financing in accordance with its terms on the Closing Date in the event that the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 and the Financing Conditions have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied, in each case to the extent the Financing is needed to consummate the Transactions, it being understood that nothing herein shall prevent Parent from substituting other financing for all or a portion of the Financing in accordance with this Section 6.16(a) upon terms and conditions that would not have any of the effects specified in the penultimate sentence of this Section 6.16(a) (any such financing upon such terms and conditions an “Alternative Financing”). Parent shall give the Company prompt notice of any material breach or threatened breach by any party to the Bridge Commitment Letter of which Parent becomes aware. Without limiting Parent’s other obligations under this Section 6.16, if a Financing Failure Event occurs, Parent shall (i) immediately notify the Company of such Financing Failure Event and the reasons therefor, (ii) in consultation with the Company, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain an Alternative Financing on terms (including conditionality, structure, covenants and pricing) not materially less beneficial in the aggregate to Parent, with lenders reasonably satisfactory to Parent, in an amount, when added with cash and marketable securities of Merger Subs and Parent, sufficient to consummate the Transactions, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and (iii) obtain, and when obtained, provide the Company with a copy of, a new financing commitment letter that provides for such Alternative Financing. Parent shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, agree to any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Bridge Commitment Letter or any Debt Financing Document unless, in each case, the terms and conditions thereof, as so amended, modified or waived, are in the aggregate at least as favorable

to the Company and Parent as those contained therein prior to giving effect to such amendment, modification or waiver; provided that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following amendments, modifications and waivers shall be understood to result in terms and conditions that are in the aggregate less favorable to the Company and Parent: (i) any amendment, modification or waiver that could reasonably be expected to (x) materially adversely affect the ability of Parent or the Merger Subs to timely consummate the Transactions or (y) make the timely funding of the Financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing materially less likely to occur, (ii) any amendment, modification or waiver of the conditions to obtaining the Financing, unless such amendment, modification or waiver results in conditions that are in the aggregate substantially equivalent (or that are more favorable to the Company and Parent) to such conditions to obtaining the Financing immediately prior to such amendment, modification or waiver, (iii) any amendment, modification or waiver that reduces the amount of the Financing or (iv) any amendment, modification or waiver that materially and adversely affects the ability of Parent or its affiliates to enforce their rights against the other parties to the Bridge Commitment Letter or such Debt Financing Documents; provided, that Parent shall have the right to substitute Alternative Financing for all or any portion of the Financing subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 6.16(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and the Merger Subs may replace or amend the Bridge Commitment Letter solely to (i) add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Bridge Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, (ii) to reassign titles to such parties who have not executed the Bridge Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, or (iii) to waive any closing conditions by any lenders or their agents. Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to obtain the Financing.

(b) Parent shall have the right to substitute Alternative Financing for all or any portion of the Financing and to reduce the aggregate commitments under the Bridge Commitment Letter by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Alternative Financing so substituted; provided, that to the extent any such Indebtedness has a scheduled special or mandatory redemption right, such right is not exercisable prior to the earlier of the consummation of the Transactions on the Closing Date, the termination of this Agreement or the Outside Date (for purposes of clarity, as it may be extended pursuant to this Agreement). Further, Parent shall have the right to substitute commitments in respect of any Alternative Financing or other equity financing for all or any portion of the Financing from the same and/or alternative bona fide third-party financing sources so long as (i) the terms thereof would not be reasonably expected to delay or prevent the Closing or make the timely funding of the Financing or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing materially less likely to occur, (ii) the conditions to the Financing set forth in the Bridge Commitment Letter would not be expanded or modified in a manner that would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent the Closing, provided still further, that any such substitute financing shall not obligate the Company prior to the Closing as a surety, guarantor or indemnitor or require the Company to extend credit to any Person, (iii) the aggregate amount of funds made available to Parent is in an amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions, including the making of all required payments in connection with the Transactions (including payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration and Fractional Share Consideration and all other amounts to be paid pursuant to this Agreement and associated costs and expenses of the Transactions required on or prior to the Closing Date, and (iv) the terms of any alternative financings do not materially and adversely affect the ability of Parent to enforce

Section 9.6 Terms Defined Elsewhere. The following terms are defined elsewhere in this Agreement, as indicated below:

Section 9.7 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” All references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Annexes” and “Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Annexes and Schedules to this Agreement. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References herein to a Person are also to such Person’s successors and permitted assigns. All references in this Agreement to “$” or other monetary amounts refer to U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise specifically provided for herein, the term “or” shall not be deemed to be exclusive. As used in this Agreement, the term “affiliates” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. The table of contents and headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience of reference purposes only and shall not affect or be deemed to affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any term or provision hereof. All references herein to the Subsidiaries of a Person shall be deemed to include all direct and indirect Subsidiaries of such Person unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires. The Parties agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

Section 9.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by e-mail of a .pdf, .tif, .jpeg or similar attachment (“Electronic Delivery”) in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered using Electronic Delivery shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent that such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

(a) This Agreement (including the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements (except that the Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed amended hereby so that until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, Parent and the Merger

Subs shall be permitted to take the actions contemplated by this Agreement) and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(b) Except as provided in Section 6.4 and the last sentence of Section 6.15, neither this Agreement (including the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter) nor the Confidentiality Agreement are intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder; provided that the Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Section 9.9(b) and Section 9.1(c), Section 9.11(a), Section 9.11(b), and Section 9.15, and each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of the Financing Sources and the Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections.

Section 9.10 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Mergers is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Mergers are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the Law of any other state. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company (on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party) and each of the other Parties hereto agrees that any claim, controversy or dispute of any kind or nature (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) against a Financing Source that is in any way related to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Financing shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict of law principles (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law); provided that (i) the interpretation of the definition of Company Material Adverse Effect or “Target Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in any commitment letter related to the Financing) and whether or not a Company Material Adverse Effect or “Target Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in any commitment letter related to the Financing) has occurred, (ii) the determination of the accuracy of any “Acquisition Representations” (as defined in any commitment letter related to the Financing) and whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof Parent, the Merger Subs or their respective affiliates have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement, or to decline to consummate the Transactions pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) the determination of whether the Transactions have been consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in each case, shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted solely in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the Law of any other state.

(b) Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the agreements delivered in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding except in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in such courts and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in such courts. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 9.11(b) in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.4. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company (on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party) and each of the other Parties hereto (A) 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, the Mergers or any of the other Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Financing or the performance thereof or the transactions contemplated thereby, in any forum other than exclusively in 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), (B) submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (C) agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to it at its address provided in Section 9.4 shall be effective service of process against it for any such action brought in any such court, (D) waives and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such action in any such court and (E) agrees that a final judgment in any such action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

Section 9.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR

RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE MERGERS, THE FINANCING AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (INCLUDING ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM AGAINST ANY FINANCING SOURCE). EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12.

Section 9.13 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except that Merger Subs may assign, in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other party, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to (i) Parent, (ii) Parent and one or more direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent, or (iii) one or more direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent; provided, that no such assignment shall relieve any Parent Entity of any obligation or liability under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, but without relieving any Party of any obligation hereunder, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable injury will occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. It is agreed that prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or remedy any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party, to a decree or order of specific performance to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement and to any further equitable relief.

(c) The Parties’ rights in this Section 9.14 are an integral part of the Transactions and each Party hereby waives any objections to any remedy referred to in this Section 9.14 (including any objection on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of such remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity). For purposes of clarity, each Party agrees that there is not an adequate remedy at Law for a breach of this Agreement by any Party. In the event any Party seeks any remedy referred to in this Section 9.14, such Party shall not be required to obtain, furnish, post or provide any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such remedy.

Section 9.15 Liability of Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company (on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party (other than Parent and the Merger Subs)) agrees that neither it nor any other Company Related Party (other than Parent and the Merger Subs) shall have any rights or claims against any Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and no Financing Source shall have any rights or claims against any Company Related Party (other than Parent and the Merger Subs) in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided that, following consummation of the Mergers, the foregoing will not limit the rights of the parties to the Financing under the Debt Financing Documents. In addition, in no event will any Financing Source be liable for consequential, special, exemplary, punitive or indirect damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) or damages of a tortious nature.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent, the Merger Subs and the Company have caused this Agreement to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.
