AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
SUPPORT AGREEMENT; COVENANTS

Section 1.1            No Transfer. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earliest of (a) the Second Merger Effective Time, (b) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms (the earlier of (a) and (b), the “Support Expiration Time”) and (c) the liquidation of GX, each Company Shareholder shall not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of (each, a “Transfer”), directly or indirectly, file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC (other than the Joint Proxy Statement and Form S-4) or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to any Company Shares owned by such Company Shareholder, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any shares of Company Shares owned by such Company Shareholder, or grant or enter into any proxy (except in accordance with this Agreement), voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of any Company Shares owned by such Company Shareholder, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii); provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions will not apply to (A) a Company Shareholder’s transfer to an officer or director of the Company or any affiliate or family member of any of the Company’s officers or directors; (B) a Company Shareholder’s transfer to a member of such Company Shareholder’s immediate family, a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such Company Shareholder’s immediate family, an affiliate of such Company Shareholder or a charitable organization; (C) a transfer by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such Company Shareholder; (D) a transfer pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; or (E) a transfer to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise of rights to purchase Company Shares or the vesting of stock-based awards, including without limitation, sell-to-cover transactions (each, a “Permitted Transfer”); provided, however, that, prior to and as a condition to the effectiveness of any Permitted Transfer, the transferee shall have executed and delivered to GX a joinder or counterpart of this Agreement pursuant to which such transferee shall be bound by all of the applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any Transfer of any Company Shares in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect.

2

Section 1.2            New Shares. In the event that (a) any Company Shares or other equity securities of the Company are issued to a Company Shareholder after the date of this Agreement pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other similar event of Company Shares of, on or affecting the Company Shares owned by such Company Shareholder or otherwise, (b) a Company Shareholder purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any Company Shares or other equity securities of the Company after the date of this Agreement (including without limitation upon the exercise or settlement of options or other equity-based awards), or (c) a Company Shareholder purchases or otherwise acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any Company Shares or other equity securities of the Company after the date of this Agreement (such Company Shares or other equity securities of the Company, collectively the “New Securities”), then such New Securities acquired or purchased by, or otherwise issued to, such Company Shareholder shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted the Company Shares owned by such Company Shareholder as of the date hereof.

Section 1.3            Closing Date Deliverables. On the Closing Date, the Company Shareholders shall deliver to GX and the Company a duly executed copy of the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement.

Section 1.4            Company Shareholder Agreements. At any meeting of the shareholders of the Company, however called, or at any adjournment thereof, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the shareholders of the Company is sought, each Company Shareholder shall (i) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all of his or her Company Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted), or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of his or her Company Shares:

(a)in favor of each Company Resolution and any other matter necessary for the consummation of the Transactions;
   
 (b)against any (i) merger agreement, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or other Acquisition Proposal (in each case, other than the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions) or (ii) consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of or by the Company;
(c)against any change in the business, management or board of directors of the Company (other than in connection with the Company Resolutions); and
(d)against any proposal, action or agreement that would (i) impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify any provision of this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Transactions, (ii) result in a breach of any covenant, representation, warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company under the Business Combination Agreement, (iii) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VI of the Business Combination Agreement not being fulfilled, or (iv) change in any manner the dividend
3

policy or capitalization of, including the voting rights of any class of shares of, the Company (other than in connection with the Company Resolutions).

Section 1.5            Further Assurances. Each Company Shareholder shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary under applicable Laws to consummate the Transactions on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein and herein. Without limiting the foregoing, no later than five Business Days prior to any meeting of the shareholders of the Company, each Company Shareholder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company duly executed proxies or voting instruction forms voted in accordance with the terms hereof, such proxy or voting instruction forms not to be revoked or withdrawn without the prior written consent of GX. Prior to a Company Recommendation Change, no Company Shareholder will communicate with any shareholder of the Company in a manner inconsistent with the Company Board recommendation in favor of the Transactions and the Business Combination Agreement.

Section 1.6            No Inconsistent Agreement. Each Company Shareholder represents and covenants that such Company Shareholder has not entered into, and shall not enter into, any agreement, or amend or modify any existing agreement, that would restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of such Company Shareholder’s obligations hereunder.

Section 1.7            Binding Effect of Business Combination Agreement. Each Company Shareholder shall be bound by and comply with Section 5.2 and Section 5.8 of the Business Combination Agreement as if (a) such Company Shareholder was an original signatory to the Business Combination Agreement with respect to such provision and (b) each reference to “the Company” in Section 5.2 and Section 5.8 of the Business Combination Agreement also referred to each Company Shareholder. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to restrict a Company Shareholder’s discretion to act (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Smith), when acting in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company, in a manner consistent with all fiduciary obligations imposed on such Company Shareholder in that capacity, subject to and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement. For greater certainty, the obligations of a Company Shareholder hereunder to vote in favor of the Company Resolutions and not take any actions inconsistent with that support are intended to apply to such Company Shareholder only in his or her capacity as a holder of securities of the Company and not in such Company Shareholder’s capacity as an officer or director of the Company, and any such actions taken by a Company Shareholder in such capacity shall not constitute a breach or violation of this Agreement.

Section 1.8            Tax Treatment. Each party hereto agrees to report the Transactions in all cases in accordance with the Intended Tax Treatment except, and then solely to the extent, otherwise required by a final determination under applicable Law.

ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 2.1            Representations and Warranties of the Company Shareholders. Each Company Shareholder represents and warrants as of the date hereof to GX and the Company

(a)          Organization; Due Authorization. Such Company Shareholder has full legal capacity, right and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform his or her obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Company Shareholder and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties to this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of such Company Shareholder, enforceable against such Company Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof (subject to the Enforceability Exceptions). If this Agreement is being executed in a representative or fiduciary capacity, the Person signing this Agreement has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement on behalf of the applicable Company Shareholder.

As of the date of this Agreement, such Company Shareholder’s Company Shares are the only equity securities in the Company owned beneficially by such Company Shareholder or over which such Company Shareholder has voting control or direction, and none of such Company Shareholder’s Company Shares are subject to any proxy, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such Company Shares. Other than any options to purchase Company Shares, such Company Shareholder does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any equity securities of the Company or any equity securities convertible into, or which can be exchanged for, equity securities of the Company.

(c)               No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Company Shareholder does not, and the performance by such Company Shareholder of his or her obligations hereunder will not require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any Person (including under any contract binding upon such Company Shareholder or such Company Shareholder’s Company Shares), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Company Shareholder of his or her obligations under this Agreement.

(d)               Litigation. There are no Actions pending against such Company Shareholder, or to the knowledge of such Company Shareholder threatened against such Company Shareholder, before (or, in the case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Entity, which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Company Shareholder of his or her obligations under this Agreement.

(e)               Brokerage Fees. Except as set forth on Section 3.24 of the Company Disclosure Letter, no broker, finder, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage

5

fee, finders’ fee or other commission in connection with the Transactions upon arrangements made by such Company Shareholder, for which the Company or any of its Affiliates may become liable.

(f)                Acknowledgment. Such Company Shareholder understands and acknowledges that each of GX and the Company is entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance upon such Company Shareholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no party hereto shall have any claim against another (and no Person shall have any rights against such party), whether under contract, tort or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall not relieve any party hereto from liability arising in respect of any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. This ARTICLE IV shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.2            Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)          This Agreement will be construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of Delaware.

Each party irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts the manner provided for notices in Section 4.7. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

(c)          EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, AND WILL CAUSE ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

Section 4.3            Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Party.

Section 4.4            Specific Performance.

7

Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.4, the parties acknowledge and agree (and further agree not to take any contrary position in any litigation concerning this Agreement) that (a) the parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof without proof of damages or otherwise, and that such relief may be sought in addition to and will not limit, diminish or otherwise impair, any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, (b) the provisions set forth herein are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement and will not be construed to limit, diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any party’s right to specific enforcement, and (c) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, none of the parties would have entered into this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 4.4 will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 4.5            Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, changed, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified or terminated, except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by GX, the Company and the Company Shareholders.

Section 4.6            Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, then (a) a suitable and equitable provision will be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor will such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

All notices and other communications among the parties will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered in person, (b) when delivered by FedEx or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service, or (c) when delivered by email (so long as the sender of any such e-mail has not received an e-mail from the applicable server indicating a delivery failure), in each case, according to the instructions set forth below.
