Each Shareholder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees, during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending immediately prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement (the “Applicable Period”), at every meeting of the Company Shareholders (a “Meeting”) and at every adjournment or postponement of such Meeting, to cause to be present and counted and to vote (or cause to be voted or acted upon by written consent with respect to) all Subject Shares capable of being voted as follows: (a) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger; (b) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone a Meeting at which there is a proposal for such Company Shareholders to vote upon the adoption of the Merger Agreement to a later date; (c) against any Acquisition Proposal and/or Acquisition

Transaction or the adoption of any agreement providing for or contemplating an Acquisition Transaction; and (d) against any amendment of the Company’s Charter or other action or agreement of the Company, in each case, for which the vote of the Company Shareholders is required to authorize such action or agreement, that would reasonably be expected to (i) result in any of the conditions to the consummation of the Merger under the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled, or (ii) prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

1.2    No Transfer. During the Applicable Period, the Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly: (a) sell, convey, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of any Subject Shares or any capital stock of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries; (b) deposit any Subject Shares or capital stock of the Company’s Subsidiaries into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or any other arrangement with respect to any such shares or purport to grant any proxy with respect thereto; (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Subject Shares or capital stock of the Company’s Subsidiaries; (d) otherwise permit any liens, claims, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, options or any other encumbrances or restrictions on title, transfer or exercise of any rights of a shareholder in respect of such Subject Shares (collectively, “Encumbrances”), to be created on any Subject Shares or capital stock of the Company’s Subsidiaries (other than liens under securities laws); or (e) commit or agree to take any of the foregoing actions (any action described in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e), a “Transfer”); provided, however, that this Section 1.2 shall not prohibit a Transfer of the Subject Shares or capital stock of the Company’s Subsidiaries to any member of the Shareholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of the Shareholder or any member of Shareholder’s immediate family, or upon the death of the Shareholder, provided, that any such Transfer referred to in this proviso shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent and Merger Sub, to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.

1.3    Stop Transfer. The Company hereby acknowledges the restrictions on the Transfer of Subject Shares and capital stock of the Company’s Subsidiaries contained in Section 1.2.

5.11    Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall 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 shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application of such provision, in any other jurisdiction.

5.12    Successors and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.
