(e)each share of common stock of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid, nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation (the “Surviving Corporation Common Stock”), which, along with any Shares that remain outstanding pursuant to Section 2.5(d), shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation as of immediately following the Effective Time.

(a)Paying Agent and Payment Fund. Prior to the expiration of the Offer, Parent shall appoint a paying agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the holders of Shares to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration to which holders of such Shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.5(a). Promptly after the expiration of the Offer, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.5(a) (the “Payment Fund”). To the extent such fund diminishes for any reason below the level required to make prompt payment of any outstanding Merger Consideration to be paid in exchange for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to Section 2.1(d) or converted in the Merger pursuant to Section 2.5(a), Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall promptly replace or restore the lost portion of such fund so as to ensure that it is, at all times, maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to pay the aggregate Per Share Amount in the Offer and the Merger. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Surviving Corporation; provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, or in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of acquisition or a combination of the foregoing and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months.

Promptly after the Effective Time and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent shall send, or shall cause the Paying Agent to send, to each record holder of Shares at the Effective Time, in each case whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.5(a), a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that delivery of the Shares shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery or transfer of the Shares to the Paying Agent and include instructions for use in effecting the surrender of certificates evidencing such Shares (the “Certificates”; provided, however, that any references herein to “Certificates” are deemed to include references to effective affidavits of loss in accordance with Section 2.12) or to non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry account statements (“Book-Entry Shares”) to the Paying Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify (after due consultation with the Company) prior to the Offer Acceptance Time) for use in effecting the surrender of Shares in exchange for payment of the Per Share Amount for each Share.

(b)Surrender of Shares. Each holder of Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration

in respect of the Shares represented by a Certificate promptly upon (i) surrender to the Paying Agent of the Certificate, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Paying Agent, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of the exchange of Book-Entry Shares. Until so surrendered or transferred each such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares.

(c)Unregistered Transferees. If any portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of any Certificate or Book-Entry Shares is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Shares is or are registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Shares shall be presented to the Paying Agent with documents required to evidence such transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall either pay to the Paying Agent any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment being made to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares or otherwise establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d)No Other Rights. The Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share and from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall not permit any further registration of transfers of Shares on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for transfer, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Share shall be given a copy of a letter of transmittal and instructed to comply with the instructions therein in order to receive the Per Share Amount to which such holder is entitled pursuant to the Merger. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of the Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares except to receive, upon surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.6, the Merger Consideration in respect of each Share represented thereby, except as otherwise provided herein or by Applicable Law.

(e)Termination of the Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of Shares at any time following the date that is twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged Shares for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.6 prior to that time shall, subject to abandoned property, escheat or other Applicable Laws, thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to Section 2.11) as general creditors thereof for payment of the Merger Consideration.

Section 2.7Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding Section 2.6 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who is entitled to demand appraisal and who has properly

exercised and perfected a demand for appraisal of such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and, as of the Effective Time, has neither effectively withdrawn nor lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL with respect to such Shares (any such Shares, “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration but instead shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares; provided, however, that, if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws, waives or otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such Shares shall immediately cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be treated as if they had been Shares converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.5(a), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such Shares. The Company shall provide Parent with prompt written notice and copies of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of any Shares, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice and/or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL that relates to such demand, and Parent shall have the opportunity and right to direct and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands.

(a)Company Restricted Stock Units. Each Company Restricted Stock Unit outstanding immediately prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, whether vested or unvested, shall become fully vested and shall be canceled as of immediately prior to, and contingent upon, the Effective Time (without regard to the exercise price of such Company Restricted Stock Unit) in exchange for the right to receive a lump-sum cash payment in the amount of the RSU Consideration, if any, with respect to such Company Restricted Stock Unit.

Notwithstanding clause (v), the Company shall be permitted to grant limited waivers of, and not enforce, any standstill provision or similar provision that has the effect of prohibiting the counterparty thereto from making an Acquisition Proposal to the Company Board to the extent that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to grant such limited waiver or to not enforce such provision would be inconsistent with Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if prior to the Offer Acceptance Time the Company receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (which Acquisition Proposal was made after the date of this Agreement and did not result from a material breach of this Section 6.2), and the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal, then the Company and its Representatives may: (i) furnish any information with respect to the Acquired Companies and access thereto to any Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives and financing sources); provided that (A) prior to furnishing any such information, the Company receives from such Third Party an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (B) any such non-public information so furnished has been previously provided or Made Available to Parent or is provided or Made Available (including through the Data Room) to Parent substantially concurrent with such information so furnished to such Third Party or (ii) participate or engage in negotiations or discussions with the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal.

then scheduled Offer Expiration Time or five (5) Business Days upon receipt of a request from Parent to do so, or (E) fail to recommend against any Acquisition Proposal that is a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act within five (5) Business Days after the commencement of such tender or exchange offer (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Change in Recommendation”) or (ii) approve, recommend, declare advisable or enter into or execute any Contract, letter of intent, acquisition agreement, agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding or similar agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”).

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Company Board may make a Change in Recommendation contemplated in clauses (A) or (C) of the definition thereof in response to an Intervening Event if (i) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal and financial advisors) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, (ii) (A) the Company shall have provided Parent five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (provided that such notice shall not constitute a Change in Recommendation) advising Parent that the Company intends to make a Change in Recommendation, which such notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the Intervening Event and the reasons for the Change in Recommendation (provided that Parent shall be required to keep all such information confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement), and (B):

(1) during such five (5) Business Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any changes to the terms of this Agreement and any other proposals made by Parent so that a failure to effect a Change in Recommendation would no longer be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law;

(2) following such five (5) Business Day period, after taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement and any other proposals made by Parent during such five (5) Business Day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal and financial advisors) that the failure to effect a Change in Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; and

(3) if the Company has validly effected a Change in Recommendation in response to an Intervening Event in compliance with this Section 6.2(d), then following such Change in Recommendation it shall thereafter be permitted to take any action described in clauses (D) and (E) of the definition thereof, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be able to take any action described in clause (B) of the definition of Change in Recommendation.

In the event of any material change in any event, occurrence or fact relating to such Intervening Event (other than in respect of any revisions proposed or proposals made by Parent as referred to

above), a new notice shall be required from the Company pursuant to Section 6.2(d)(ii), except that the references to five (5) Business Days in this Section 6.2(d) shall be deemed to be three (3) Business Days, and the provisions of this Section 6.2(d) shall otherwise apply to the Intervening Event as modified thereby.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time if, in response to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made by a Third Party after the date of this Agreement which does not arise from a breach of this Section 6.2, and has not been withdrawn, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal and financial advisors) that (i) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (ii) the failure to take an action set forth in clause (x) or (y) would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, then (x) the Company Board may make a Change in Recommendation or (y) the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) in order to enter into an definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided that in either such case (A) the Company shall have provided to Parent five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Superior Proposal Notice”) (provided that such notice shall not constitute a Change in Recommendation) advising Parent that the Company intends to take such action (and specifying, in reasonable detail, the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal, including the identity of the Third Party making any such Superior Proposal) and providing Parent with a complete copy of any written proposal or offer, including any proposed Alternative Acquisition Agreement or financing documentation, and any other documents containing the material terms of such Superior Proposal (provided that Parent shall be required to keep all such documents and their terms confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement), and (B):

(1) during such five (5) Business Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall negotiate and discuss in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding changes to the terms of this Agreement and any other proposals made by Parent intended by Parent to cause such Acquisition Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(2) following such five (5) Business Day period, after taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement made by Parent during such five (5) Business Day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal and financial advisors) that (x) such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (y) the failure to make the Change in Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law.

Any material revisions, modifications or amendments to the terms of such Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal and shall in each case require the Company to deliver to Parent a new Superior Proposal Notice, except that the references to five (5) Business Days in this Section 6.2(e) shall be deemed to be three (3) Business Days.

(f)During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall promptly (and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours after receipt) advise Parent orally or in writing in the event that the Company receives (x) any Acquisition Proposal, or (y) any inquiry, proposal, offer

or request for information with respect to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal and in connection with such notice provide to Parent the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal (including the identity of the Third Party making any such Acquisition Proposal including any documents submitted therewith). During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall (i) notify Parent in writing if the Company determines to begin providing non-public information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 6.2(b), (ii) keep Parent reasonably informed of the status, material details and material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (including, prior to initially furnishing any information or to commencing any discussions or negotiations pursuant to Section 6.2(b), advising Parent of any determination by the Company Board pursuant to Section 6.2(b)) and any discussions and negotiations concerning the material terms and conditions thereof, and (ii) promptly provide to Parent (and in any event no later than twenty four (24) hours after receipt or delivery thereof) any written proposal, indication of interest (or amendment thereto) or any other written material that constitutes or is related to an Acquisition Proposal (or amendment thereto) including copies of any proposed Alternative Acquisition Agreements and any other material agreements (or drafts thereof) and any financing commitments related thereto . The Company shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, enter into any Contract with any Person that prohibits the Company, its Subsidiaries or Representatives from providing such information or any other information contemplated by this Section 6.2 to Parent, Merger Sub or their Representatives or otherwise limits or impairs the Company’s, its Subsidiaries’, its Affiliates’ or their respective Representatives’ ability to comply with their respective obligations in this Section 6.2.

(g)Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board, directly or indirectly, through their respective Representatives, from (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company any position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a) or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (iii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided that this Section 6.2(g) shall not be deemed to permit the Company Board to make a Change in Recommendation except to the extent permitted by Section 6.2(d) and Section 6.2(e).

(h)The Company agrees that any breach of this Section 6.2 by any of its Representatives acting on the Company’s behalf shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

Section 6.3Approval of Merger. The Merger shall be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL and shall be effected by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company as soon as practicable following the Offer Acceptance Time, without a vote of the stockholders of the Company, pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

(a)Upon reasonable notice to the Company, the Acquired Companies shall, and shall cause their respective officers, directors, employees and other Representatives to, afford Parent’s and Merger Sub’s officers and Parent’s and Merger Sub’s other authorized Representatives reasonable access as reasonably requested by Parent, during normal business hours throughout the Pre-Closing Period, to their respective Representatives, officers, employees, properties, facilities, books, Contracts, records (including Tax Returns), reports, correspondence and any other documents and information of the Acquired Companies that is in the possession, custody or control of any of the Acquired Companies or their respective Representatives (whether in physical or electronic form) and shall furnish Parent and Merger Sub all financial, operating and other data and information, in each case, as Parent and Merger Sub through their officers, employees or other Representatives, may reasonably request, in each case, for reasonable business purposes related to the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that any such access shall be conducted at Parent’s expense, at a reasonable time, under the supervision of appropriate personnel of the Acquired Companies and in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operation of the business of the Acquired Companies. Nothing in this Agreement shall require any of the Acquired Companies to disclose any information to Parent to the extent such disclosure would, in the Company’s good faith judgement after consultation with legal counsel (i) jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege or (ii) contravene any Applicable Law, fiduciary duty or binding confidentiality obligation of any Acquired Company or its Affiliate (so long as the Company has used reasonable best efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure not in violation of such Applicable Law, agreement or duty); provided, further, that the Acquired Company shall give notice to Parent of the fact that it is withholding such information or documents and thereafter the Acquired Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the disclosure of such information or documents, including, without limitation the execution of a joint defense agreement in customary form or limiting disclosure to external counsel for Parent.

(b)No information or knowledge obtained by Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to Section 6.2, this Section 6.4 or otherwise shall affect or be deemed to affect or modify any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement or otherwise prejudice in any way the rights and remedies of Parent or Merger Sub hereunder, nor shall any such information, knowledge or investigation be deemed to affect or modify Parent’s or Merger Sub’s reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by the Company in this Agreement.

(c)With respect to all information provided to Parent or any of its Representatives by the Company or any of its Representatives in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions (including any information disclosed pursuant to this Section 6.4) Parent shall comply with and shall instruct its Representatives to comply with, all of its obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement.

(a)From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall honor, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor all Company Employee Plans in effect immediately before the Effective Time that by their terms provide a contractual entitlement to any employee or service provider party to or participating in such arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein, other than Section 6.5(b) and the terms of such arrangements, including the contractual rights of such participants, shall prevent Parent from amending or terminating any Company Employee Plan or providing compensation or benefits in its discretion.

(b)For a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time, Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Continuing Employee (who is not covered by a collective bargaining agreement) who remains employed (i) base salary or base wages and short-term cash incentive compensation opportunities and discretionary bonus opportunities (other than equity-based or other long-term incentive compensation opportunities) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to such Continuing Employee as of the Effective Time, and (ii) health and welfare benefits and other employee benefits (other than severance payments and benefits and deferred compensation) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate than those provided to such Continuing Employee as of the Effective Time.

(c)If the Effective Time occurs prior to the date in 2021 that annual bonus payments in respect of calendar year 2020 are paid to employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice (the “Ordinary 2020 Bonus Payment Date”) pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Performance-Based Bonus Plan, effective January 1, 2016, short-term incentive bonus arrangements for Vice President-level employees and the Acquired Companies’ discretionary cash bonus practices (collectively, the “Company Bonus Plans”), then Parent shall (or cause the Surviving Corporation to) pay to each Continuing Employee who participates in one or more of the Company Bonus Plans an annual bonus in respect of calendar year 2020 pursuant to the Company Bonus Plans on the Ordinary 2020 Bonus Payment Date in accordance with the terms of the applicable Company Bonus Plan; provided, that all individual performance measures in respect of calendar year 2020 shall be assessed at one-hundred percent (100%).

(d)From and after the Closing Date, with respect to Continuing Employees, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the service of each such Continuing Employee with the Acquired Companies prior to the Closing Date to be recognized for purposes of eligibility to participate, levels of benefits (but not for benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan or retiree health or welfare plan) and vesting under each compensation, vacation, fringe or other welfare benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates (collectively, the “Parent Benefit Plans”) in which any Continuing Employee is or becomes eligible to participate, but solely to the extent that service was credited to such employee for such purposes under a comparable Company Employee Plan immediately prior to the Closing Date and to the extent that such credit would not result in a duplication of benefits.

(e)From and after the Closing Date, with respect to each Parent Benefit Plan that is an “employee welfare benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA in which any Continuing Employee is or becomes eligible to participate, Parent shall use commercially

reasonable efforts to cause each such Parent Benefit Plan to (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, required physical examinations and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable under such Parent Benefit Plan for such Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents to the same extent that such pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, required physical examinations and exclusions would not have applied or would have been waived under the corresponding Company Employee Plan in which such Continuing Employee was a participant immediately prior to his commencement of participation in such Parent Benefit Plan and (ii) provide each Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid by the Continuing Employee or his or her dependents prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any Parent Benefit Plan covering such Continuing Employees or his or her dependents on or after the Closing Date.

(f)Prior to the Effective Time, if requested by Parent in writing not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and the terms of the applicable plan or arrangement, the Company shall cause the Company 401(k) Plan (the “Company 401(k) Plan”) to be terminated effective immediately prior to the Effective Time. In the event that Parent requests that the Company 401(k) Plan be terminated, (i) the Company shall provide Parent with evidence that such plan has been terminated (the form and substance of which shall be subject to review and approval by Parent) not later than the day immediately preceding the Effective Time and (ii) Parent shall cause a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan designated by Parent (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”) to permit each Continuing Employee to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code, including loans) in the form of cash, notes or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the full account balance distributed or distributable to such Continuing Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan to the Parent 401(k) Plan.

(g)Parent, the Company and the Surviving Corporation acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 6.5 are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties to this Agreement and shall not create any right in any other Person, including any Company Employee, any participant in any Company Employee Plan or Parent Benefit Plan or any beneficiary thereof or any right to continued employment with Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates. Nothing in this Section 6.5 shall be deemed to amend any Company Employee Plan, any Parent Benefit Plan or to require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates to permit any Person to participate in any particular benefit plan sponsored or maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates, or to continue or amend any particular benefit plan, before or after the consummation of the Transactions, and any such plan may be amended or terminated in accordance with its terms and Applicable Law.

Section 6.6State Takeover Laws. If any “control share acquisition,” “business combination,” “fair price,” “moratorium” or other anti-takeover Applicable Law may become or is deemed or purports to be applicable to any Transaction, then each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, and their respective boards of directors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) take such actions with respect thereto as are necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and (ii) otherwise act to render such anti-takeover Applicable Law (or, in the case of Section 203 of the DGCL, the restrictions on business combinations provided therein) inapplicable to, or to minimize the effects of the foregoing on, the Transactions.

Section 6.7Obligations of Parent. Parent shall cause Merger Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(a)For six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall (and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law (and shall advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, provided the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, nonappealable judgment that such Person is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder), each present and former director and officer of the Acquired Companies (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, settlements, fines, losses, claims, damages or Liabilities (whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other), arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including the Transactions.

(b)Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase a “tail” or “runoff” officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy or policies in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each Indemnified Party on terms with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts no less favorable than those of such policies in effect on the date of this Agreement (the “Current Policies”) for the six (6) year period following the Closing and at a price not to exceed three hundred fifty percent (350%) of the amount per annum the Company paid or required to be paid for a twelve (12)-month period under the Current Policies (the “Current Premium”) set forth on Section 6.8(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter. If the Company or, pursuant to the immediately following sentence, Parent obtains prepaid “tail” or “runoff” policies in accordance with this Section 6.8(b), the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain such policies in full force and effect for their full term, and they shall continue to honor the obligations thereunder. If the Company fails to purchase such “tail” or “runoff” policies prior to Closing, then either (i) Parent may purchase such “tail” or “runoff” policies on behalf of the Company or the Surviving Corporation or (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain an officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy or policies in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering the Indemnified Parties on terms with respect to each of coverage and amount no less favorable than those of such policies in effect as of the date of this Agreement for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time; provided further, that in satisfying its obligation under this Section 6.8(b)(ii), neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of three hundred fifty percent (350%) of the Current Premium and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed three hundred fifty percent (350%) of the Current Premium, then Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained such policies of insurance described above that provide the maximum dollar amount of coverage available at an annual premium equal to three hundred fifty percent (350%) of the Current Premium.

(c)From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Acquired Companies pursuant to (i) each indemnification agreement that has been Made Available and is in effect between the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and any individual who at the Effective Time is, or at any time prior to the Effective Time was, a director or officer of the Company or of a Company Subsidiary; and (ii) any indemnification, advancement or exculpation provision set forth in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other Organizational Documents of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as in effect on the date of this Agreement. From the Effective Time through the sixth (6th) anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain, and Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation than are set forth in the Organizational Documents of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(d)If Parent or the 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 or conveys 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 the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.8.

(e)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 6.8 (i) shall survive the acceptance of the Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer and the consummation of the Merger, (ii) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each indemnified or insured party (including each Indemnified Party), his or her heirs and his or her or their trustees or administrators or persons acting in similar capacities and (iii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such individual may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or comparable Organizational Documents of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, under any applicable Contract or Applicable Laws, or otherwise. Unless required by Applicable Law, this Section 6.8 may not be amended, altered, or repealed after the acceptance of the Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer in such a manner as to adversely affect any of the rights of any Person indemnified by this Section 6.8 without the prior written consent of the affected Person.

(c)Subject to Applicable Law, the Company and Parent and their respective counsel shall (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission with a Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or before a Governmental Authority relating to the Transactions, including any proceeding initiated by a private person, (ii) have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult the other on, any material filing made with, or written materials to be submitted to, any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, in each case regarding any of the Transactions, (iii) as promptly as practicable, inform each other of any material communication (or any other material correspondence or memoranda) received from, or given to, the DOJ or the FTC or any other applicable Governmental Authority and (iv) as promptly as practicable furnish each other with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications between them or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or its respective staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Transactions.

The Company and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 6.9 as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.9, materials provided to the other party or its counsel may be redacted to remove references concerning the valuation of the Acquired Companies and as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

(d)In furtherance of the undertakings of Parent pursuant to Section 6.9(a) and Section 6.9(b), but subject to the proviso to this sentence, Parent shall take, or cause to be taken, any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority or any other Person so as to enable the parties hereto to consummate the Transactions as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of such of its and its Subsidiaries’ assets, properties or businesses or of the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired by Parent pursuant hereto, and entering into such other arrangements, as are necessary or advisable in order to avoid the entry of, and the commencement of litigation seeking the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Order in any Proceeding by a Governmental Authority or any other Person under Antitrust Laws that would otherwise have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the consummation of the Transactions; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.9(d) or any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall Parent or any of its Subsidiaries be required to agree to (nor shall the Company or any Company Subsidiaries be permitted to agree unless Parent so directs them (and they shall, if Parent so directs, agree to, so long as such agreements are conditioned upon the Closing)) any action, concession or undertaking, unless such action, concession or undertaking is conditioned on the Closing. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.9 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall not be required to take (nor shall the Company or any Company Subsidiaries be permitted to take) any action with respect to Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, including any affiliated investment funds or any portfolio company (as such term is commonly understood in the private equity industry) of Parent or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition, of the assets, properties or businesses of Parent or any Affiliate of Parent (in each case, other than the Company and its Subsidiaries). In addition, Parent shall defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any Governmental Authority or any other person under Antitrust Laws in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing occurring prior to the Outside Date.

The Company shall (a) give Parent the right to review and comment on all material filings or responses to be made by the Company and shall discuss in advance any material discussions or communications proposed to be held by the Company with any Third Party in connection with any such Transaction Litigation (and the Company shall in good faith take any comments or feedback provided by Parent into account), and the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of, any such Transaction Litigation at Parent’s own expense and (b) if Parent does not exercise such right to participate (subject to the Company’s control right), keep Parent reasonably and promptly informed with respect to the status of such Transaction Litigation; provided, however, that the disclosure of information in connection therewith shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.4, including regarding attorney-client privileges and other applicable legal privileges. No compromise or full or partial settlement of any Transaction Litigation shall be agreed to by the Company without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

statement in response to questions from the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences, make internal announcements to employees and make disclosures in Company SEC Documents and any documents, reports, statements, forms or other filings required to be made by Parent with the SEC, so long as such statements, announcements and disclosures substantially reiterate (and are not inconsistent with) previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements approved in advance by the other party; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor the Company shall be required to consult with or obtain consents from the other parties hereto before issuing any press release or making any other public statement with respect to any Change in Recommendation to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 6.2(d) or Section 6.2(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and its affiliates may, without consultation or consent, make ordinary course disclosures and communications to existing or prospective direct or indirect general and limited partners, equity holders, members, managers, investors and financing sources of such person or any Affiliates of such person, in each case, who are subject to customary confidentiality restrictions.

(vi)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 9.9, in circumstances where the Company Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 9.4(b)(i), Section 9.4(b)(ii) or Section 9.4(b)(iii), Parent’s right to receive payment from the Company of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.4(b)(i), Section 9.4(b)(ii) or Section 9.4(b)(iii), together with all amounts payable pursuant to Section 9.4(b)(v), shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) of any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives against the Company and the Company Related Parties for all losses and damages suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated (for any reason whatsoever) or for a breach (whether willful (including Willful Breach), intentional, unilateral or otherwise) or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee when payable pursuant to Section 9.4(b)(i), Section 9.4(b)(ii) or Section 9.4(b)(iii), (A) none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions and (B) none of Parent, Merger Sub or the Parent Related Parties shall seek to recover any other damages or seek any other remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) with respect to any losses or damages suffered in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(i)If this Agreement is validly terminated by (A) the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii) or Section 8.1(d)(iv) or (B) the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i) at such time as this Agreement was terminable by the

Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii) or Section 8.1(d)(iv), then Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after termination of this Agreement, pay (or cause to be paid to) the Company a fee in the amount of $10,439,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”).

(ii)For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent Termination Fee shall be payable only once with respect to this Section 9.4(c) and not in duplication even though such payment may be payable under one or more provisions hereof.

(iii)If Parent fails to pay the Parent Termination Fee or any portion thereof and the Company commences a Proceeding which results in an Order against Parent for the Parent Termination Fee or any portion thereof, Parent shall pay the Company its fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such Proceeding, together with interest on the Parent Termination Fee (or any portion thereof that has not been paid timely in accordance with this Agreement) from and including the date payment of such amount was due through the date of actual payment at the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

any losses or other liabilities arising out of or in connection with breaches (whether willful (including any Willful Breach), intentional, unilateral or otherwise) by Parent or Merger Sub of its representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or arising from any claim or cause of action that any Company Related Party may have with respect thereto, including in respect of any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith. While the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 9.9 and the Equity Commitment Letter and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant this Section 9.4(c), as the case may be, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the consummation of the Offer and payment of the Parent Termination Fee.

(v)Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.4(c) shall be paid to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Company shall promptly provide Parent upon request therefor the wire transfer information required to make any payments pursuant to this Section 9.4(c).

(d)The Company, Parent and Merger Sub, each acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 9.4 are an integral part of the Transactions and that without such provisions the Company, Parent and Merger Sub would not have entered into this Agreement. Each of the parties further acknowledges and agrees that the payment of the Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee is not a penalty, but is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate (i) Parent and Merger Sub in the circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is payable, or (ii) the Company in the circumstances in which the Parent Termination Fee is payable, for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated here, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

Section 9.5Assignment; Benefit. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations herein may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties and any purported assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void ab initio; provided, that, Parent and Merger Sub may assign all or any of their rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate so long as (a) Parent and Merger Sub continue to remain liable for all of such rights and obligations as if no such assignment had occurred, and (b) such assignment in no way causes a material delay or materially impairs the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Transactions; and provided, further, that Parent and Merger Sub may, without the prior written consent of the other parties, grant a security interest in, and collaterally assign, any of their rights under this Agreement to the Financing Sources in connection with the Debt Financing. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except (i) from and after the Offer Acceptance Time, the provisions of Article 2 relating to the payment of the Merger Consideration, which shall be enforceable by the holders of Shares immediately prior to the Offer Acceptance Time who validly tendered and did not withdraw Shares pursuant to the Offer, (ii) from and after the Effective Time,

(A) the provisions of Article 2 relating to the payment of the Per Share Amount, the Merger Consideration and the RSU Consideration, which shall be enforceable by the holders of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards, as applicable, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the provisions of Section 6.8, which shall be enforceable by the Persons or entities benefiting therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Financing Sources shall be third-party beneficiaries of each of the Financing Provisions (it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections will be enforceable by the Financing Sources).

Section 9.6Governing Law. This Agreement and any Proceedings arising out of or related hereto or the Transactions or to the inducement of any party hereto to enter into this Agreement (whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state.

Section 9.7Jurisdiction. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably agree (i) that any Proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the Transactions shall be brought in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom, or, if no such state court has proper jurisdiction, the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware, and any appellate court therefrom and (ii) not to commence any such Proceeding in any court except such courts. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court in respect of any legal or equitable Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, or relating to enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any such Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that the Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the Transactions may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party agrees that notice or the service of process in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 9.1 or in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing in Section 9.6 or this Section 9.7, each of the parties agrees that it will not bring or support any suit, action or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing or the performance of the transactions related thereto, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under Applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in the County of New York (and appellate courts thereof), and makes the agreements, waivers and consents set forth in Section 9.6 and this Section 9.7 mutatis mutandis but with respect to the courts specified in this Section 9.7.

Section 9.8Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE DEBT FINANCING OR THE

PERFORMANCE THEREOF AGAINST ANY OF THE FINANCING SOURCES). EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) 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, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 9.8.

Section 9.9Specific Performance; Remedies. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened or anticipated breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the courts described in Section 9.7, without proof of damages or otherwise, and (b) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the parties agrees that it waives the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and will not oppose the granting of an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or equity. 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 9.9 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties agree that, prior to the termination of this Agreement, the Company may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to cause Parent and/or Merger Sub to enforce the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter (solely in its capacity as a third party beneficiary under the Equity Commitment Letter) and Parent’s and/or Merger Sub’s respective obligations to consummate the Offer and the Merger in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, if, and only if: (i) all Offer Conditions and conditions set forth in Section 7.1, as applicable, were satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing or the Effective Time, each of which is capable of being satisfied at such time); (ii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed to Parent in writing that it is prepared to consummate the Closing if Parent and/or Merger Sub performs their respective obligations to consummate the Offer and the Merger; and (iii) Parent fails to consummate the Offer and the Closing by the date that is three (3) Business Days after the later of (x) the first date upon which Parent would have been required to consummate the Offer pursuant to Section 2.1 and (y) the date of delivery of such notice, and at all times during such three (3) Business Day period the Company stood ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 9.10Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the Offer, the Merger and the other

Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a holding, the parties agree to 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, in order that the Offer, the Merger and the other Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 9.11Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the exhibits and annexes to this Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter and any documents delivered by the parties in connection herewith and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect thereto; provided, however, that, the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (a) the Effective Time and (b) the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

Section 9.12Rules of Construction. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel of its choice throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement, and that it has executed the same with the advice of said independent counsel. Each party and its counsel cooperated and participated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement, and any and all drafts relating thereto exchanged among the parties shall be deemed the work product of all of the parties and may not be construed against any party by reason of its drafting or preparation. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against any party that drafted or prepared it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived by each of the parties hereto. Any matter set forth on the Company Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to constitute an admission by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material, is required to be disclosed by the Company under this Agreement or falls within relevant minimum thresholds or materiality standards set forth in this Agreement (except, solely in the case of minimum dollar thresholds, as expressly provided by the Company Disclosure Letter or this Agreement), nor shall be construed as an admission or indication to any Third Party that any breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

Section 9.13Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto, it being understood and agreed that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart.

Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by electronic mail in PDF form, or by any other electronic means designed to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will be deemed to have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures.

Without limiting the rights of the Company against Parent, in no event shall the Company or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party (other than pursuant to the express terms and limitations set forth in the Limited Guaranty and the Equity Commitment Letter).

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that, subject to any definitive agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing, (i) no Financing Source shall have any liability to the Company or any of its Affiliates or any other Person relating to or arising out of the Transactions, this Agreement or the Debt Financing, or any transactions contemplated by, or document related to, the foregoing (including any willful breach thereof, or the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated), whether at law or equity, in contract or in tort or otherwise, and (ii) none of the Company or any of its Affiliates shall have any rights or claims whatsoever against any of the Financing Sources under this Agreement or in connection with the Debt Financing, or otherwise in respect of the Transactions or any of the other transactions contemplated by any of the foregoing, whether at law or equity, in contract or in tort, or otherwise.

The obligation of Merger Sub to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses “(a)” through “(h)” below. Accordingly, notwithstanding any other term of the Offer or the Agreement to the contrary and in addition to (and not in limitation of) Parent’s right to extend, amend and terminate the Offer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Merger Sub shall not be required to (and Parent shall not be required to cause Merger Sub to) accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Exchange Act Rule 14e-l(c) (relating to Merger Sub’s obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer), pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of or, subject to such rules and regulations, the payment for, any Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn: (i) if the Merger Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with Section 8.1; and (ii) at any scheduled Offer Expiration Time (as the Offer may have been extended pursuant to, and subject to any requirements to extend the Offer pursuant to, Section 2.1(c) of the Merger Agreement), if: (x) the Minimum Tender Condition or the Termination Condition shall not be satisfied by the Offer Expiration Time; or (y) any of the additional conditions set forth below shall not be satisfied or (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) waived in writing by Parent:

(a) there shall have been validly tendered and “received” (as defined in Section 251(h)(6) of the DGCL) in the Offer and not validly withdrawn prior to the Offer Expiration Time that number of Shares that (together with any Shares owned by Parent and its Affiliates and excluding any Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received” (as such term is defined in Section 251(h)(6)(f) of the DGCL)) represent at least one share more than one-half of the number of the Shares outstanding at the Offer Acceptance Time (the “Minimum Tender Condition”);

(b) any waiting period (or any extension thereof) under the HSR Act applicable to the Transactions shall have expired or been terminated;

(c) no Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over any party hereto shall have issued any Order, nor any Applicable Law or other legal restraint, injunction or prohibition shall be in effect, that makes consummation of the Offer, the acquisition of Shares by Parent or Merger Sub, the Merger or the other Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibited;

(d) since the date of the Merger Agreement, there shall not have been any Effect that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect;

(e) (i) the representation and warranty of the Company set forth in Section 4.11(c) shall be true and correct as of the Offer Acceptance Time, as if made at such time (ii) each of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3(a), Section 4.25 and Section 4.27 of the Merger Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Offer Acceptance Time, as if made at such time, except to the extent such representation or warranty expressly relates to a specific date (in which case on and as of such

specific date), (iii) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 4.3(b) and Section 4.6(a) shall be true and correct except for de minimis inaccuracies as of the Offer Acceptance Time, as if made at such time, except to the extent any such representation or warranty expressly relates to a specific date (in which case on and as of such specific date), and (iv) each of the other representations and warranties of the Company set forth in the Merger Agreement shall be true and correct as of the Offer Acceptance Time, as if made at such time, except to the extent any such representation or warranty expressly relates to a specific date (in which case on and as of such specific date), except that in the case of this clause (iv) for such failures to be true and correct that have not had or would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect (it being understood that for this purpose all references to the term “Company Material Adverse Effect” and other qualifications based on the word “material,” set forth in any such representations and warranties shall be disregarded);

(f) the Company shall have complied in all material respects with each of the covenants, obligations and agreements it is required to comply with or perform at or prior to the Effective Time;

(g) Parent and Merger Sub shall have received a certificate of the Company, signed by an officer of the Company, dated the date on the which the Offer expires certifying that the conditions specified in clauses (d), (e) and (f) have been satisfied;

(h) the Merger Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Termination Condition”); and

The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Parent and Merger Sub and, except for the Minimum Tender Condition and the Termination Condition (each of which shall, prior to any waiver, require the prior written consent of the Company), may be waived by Parent or Merger Sub in whole or in part at any time and from time to time and in the sole discretion of Parent or Merger Sub, subject in each case to the terms of the Merger Agreement and Applicable Law. The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the rights and obligations of Parent and Merger Sub with respect to extending, terminating and/or modifying the Offer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement or Applicable Law. The failure by Parent, Merger Sub or any other Affiliate of Parent at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right, the waiver of any such right with respect to particular facts and circumstances shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts and circumstances and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

Capitalized terms used in this Annex A but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement to which it is attached, except that the term “Merger Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to the Agreement to which this Annex A is attached.
