(b)          The Lead Investor will have the right to reduce its Commitment Amount to the extent permitted under its Equity Commitment Letter and amend Schedule 2 to update such amount; provided that the Commitment Amounts of each other Investor shall not be reduced below its Commitment Amount set forth on Schedule 2 unless such Investor (i) is a Non-Consenting Investor or (ii) fails to fund or contribute when required hereunder and under its Equity Commitment Letter or Support Agreement any portion of its Commitment Amount in accordance with the terms of its Equity Commitment Letter or Support Agreement and the other Investors agree to reduce such Commitment Amount in lieu of enforcing its Equity Commitment Letter (provided that any reduction pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) shall not affect any of the other rights that any other party to this Agreement or the applicable Equity Commitment Letter or Support Agreement (or its permitted assignee) may have against such Investor pursuant to this Agreement or the applicable Equity Commitment Letter or Support Agreement or otherwise in respect of such failure).

(c)          The Lead Investor shall cause Parent not to permit any waiver, amendment or restatement of any Equity Commitment Letter or Funding Agreement (or any rights or obligations thereunder) that is beneficial to the Lead Investor (other than any termination thereof as permitted by this Agreement) to be effected unless the same waiver, amendment or restatement is made to all of the Equity Commitment Letters or Funding Agreements, as applicable; provided, that, the waiver, amendment or restatement of any Equity Commitment Letter or Funding Agreement, as applicable, whether with respect to the Lead Investor or any other Investor, shall in all cases remain subject to the terms thereof with respect to waiver, amendment or restatement.

Each Investor agrees that, at any time prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, it shall not knowingly become affiliated with, enter into discussions with, or make an equity investment with, any other Person making an Acquisition Proposal under the Merger Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal unless and until the Special Committee determines, in accordance with Section 5.3(b) of the Merger Agreement, that any such action by such Investor is necessary and appropriate and so instructs such Investor in writing; provided that this Section 2.11 shall not apply to (and the following actions shall not be restricted by this Section 2.11) (a) any funding of capital commitments or funding obligations into private equity, venture capital, hedge or other similar investment funds that are not controlled by such Investor, or (b) any investment or acquisition made by a Person in which such Investor holds only a limited partnership or other passive non-voting investment, but for the avoidance of doubt, clauses (a) and (b) shall not include any discretionary co-investments by such Investor or accounts managed or controlled by such Investor.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.11 shall be deemed to prevent the Special Committee from determining that an Acquisition Proposal either constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal or that such Acquisition Proposal is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms.

2.12
Side Agreements.  None of the Investors or any of their respective Affiliates shall enter into any side agreements amongst a subset of the Investors or with any Buyer Party relating to the Transaction.

(b)          Each Investor shall use reasonable best efforts to furnish all information concerning such Investor and its Affiliates, if applicable, to the other parties that is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of the Proxy Statement, the Schedule 13e-3 and all Schedule 13D/G Filings, and provide each such other party assistance, as may be reasonably requested by such other party to be included therein and will otherwise reasonably assist and shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other party, as applicable, in the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement, the Schedule 13e-3 and all Schedule 13D/G Filings and the resolution of any comments to either received from the SEC.

3.
MISCELLANEOUS.

3.1
Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified, and the provisions hereof may be waived, only by an agreement in writing signed by the Lead Investor; provided, however, that if such an amendment, modification or waiver materially or adversely affects the rights or obligations of the other Investors (regardless of whether such Investor is treated the same as all other Investors or a subset thereof), would change the relative ownership of the parties hereto in Parent following the consummation of the Transaction (other than as permitted by Section 2.4(b)) or would supersede or conflict with the rights of the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates set forth in the LPA Term Sheet, such amendment, modification or waiver must be made by an agreement in writing signed by such other Investors; provided, further, if any such amendment, modification or waiver is for the benefit of the Lead Investor disproportionately or separately from the other Investors, the Lead Investor shall obtain the written consent of each other Investor (other than any Non-Consenting Investor replaced hereunder) before making such amendment, modification or waiver must be made by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Investors (other than any such amendment, modification or waiver to the extent effecting the replacement hereunder of any Non-Consenting Investor.

12

3.2
Severability. In the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable Law, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.  The provisions hereof are severable, and in the event any provision hereof should be held invalid or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not invalidate, render unenforceable or otherwise affect any other provision hereof.

3.3
Remedies. The parties hereto agree that, except as provided herein, this Agreement will be enforceable by all available remedies at law or in equity (including, without limitation, specific performance).  The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity.  If Parent, Buyer, Merger Sub or the Lead Investor elects to enforce this Agreement in respect of any provision (including in respect of any Commitment Amount) hereof against any Investor, it must do so against each other Investor that has similarly failed, in all material respects, to perform with respect to the same provision hereof.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the preceding sentence), this Agreement may be enforced against each Co-Investor only by, or at the direction of, the Lead Investor.

3.4
No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith by any Investor party hereto, and notwithstanding the fact that an Investor may be a partnership, limited liability company or limited company or other entities, Parent, Buyer, Merger Sub and each Investor by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, hereby covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Person other than an Investor shall have any obligation hereunder and no recourse under this Agreement or under any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith shall be had against any former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling persons, direct or indirect stockholders or equityholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, members, managers, direct or indirect general or limited partners, agents, attorneys or other representatives of any party hereto, or any of their successors or assigns, or any former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling persons, direct or indirect stockholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, members, managers, direct or indirect general or limited partners, agents, attorneys or other representatives or successors or assignees of any of the foregoing (each, a “Related Party” and, collectively, the “Related Parties”), whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable Law, it being agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any Related Party for any obligations of any Investor, Parent, Buyer or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns under this Agreement or any documents or instrument delivered in connection herewith or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith or for any claim (whether at law or equity, in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation.  Parent, Buyer, Merger Sub and each Investor further agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall have any right of recovery against any Related Party, whether by piercing the corporate veil or by a claim against any such Related Party.

13

3.5
No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding on each party hereto solely for the benefit of each other parties hereto and nothing set forth in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer, directly or indirectly, upon or give to any Person other than the parties hereto any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause the parties hereto to enforce, any provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Related Parties are express intended third party beneficiaries of Section 3.4.

3.6
Press Release; Communications. Any general notices, releases, statements or communications to the general public or the press relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and the Merger Agreement shall be made only at such times and in such manner as may be determined by the Lead Investor and shall not disclose the identity of any Co-Investor or any confidential information of any Co-Investor without such Co-Investor’s prior written approval.  Nothing contained in this Section 3.6 shall prevent (a) any party from at any time furnishing any information requested by any Governmental Authority or from making any disclosures required under applicable Law, including the Exchange Act or (b) any party from furnishing any information concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to such party’s Representatives in accordance with Section 3.7 or current or prospective limited partners or other equityholders in connection with ordinary course reporting or marketing activities.

3.7
Confidentiality. The existence and content of this Agreement shall be treated as confidential by the Investors and shall not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to by any other Investor or any of such Investor’s Affiliates in any document, except with the prior written consent of the other Investors; provided, however, that no such written consent shall be required (and each Investor and its Affiliates shall be free to release such information (each Investor and any Affiliate disclosing such information, a “Disclosing Party” and, collectively, the “Disclosing Parties”)) for disclosures to each Investor’s and its Affiliates’ respective partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, legal, financial, accounting or other advisors, potential debt and equity financing sources, co-investors, limited partners related investment funds, consultants and other representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”), so long as such Representatives are bound by obligations of confidentiality with respect to such information and provided that each Disclosing Party shall be responsible for a breach of the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section 3.7 by any of its Representatives; and provided, further, that each Investor and its Affiliates may disclose such information (including the existence of this Agreement) (a) to the extent required by applicable Law or the applicable rules of any national securities exchange or in connection with any securities filing related to the Transaction and/or (b) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having or claiming jurisdiction over such party or any of its properties or assets and/or (c) in connection with any filings or other submissions with any court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce the terms hereof and/or (d) to permitted assignees (including in connection with any permitted syndication hereunder) of such Investor and/or (e) in connection with litigation relating to the Transaction or the Merger Agreement, as permitted by or provided in the Merger Agreement, but if any such disclosure names or references any other Investor or its Affiliates (other than any disclosure made in connection with enforcing this Agreement), the Disclosing Party shall consult such Investor and shall use reasonable best efforts to not make or limit such disclosure and shall consider such Investor’s reasonable input with respect to such disclosure, in each case, to the extent legally permitted.  The confidentiality obligations of each Investor set forth herein shall be superseded by the confidentiality obligations set forth in the LPA and LLCA.

Any and all claims, controversies and causes of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether sounding in contract, tort or statute, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any conflict-of-laws or other rules that would result in the application of the laws or statutes of limitations of a different jurisdiction.

15

3.9
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS CONDUCT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES 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 THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (ii) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (iii) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (iv) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 3.9.

3.10
Other Agreements; Assignment. This Agreement, together with the agreements referenced herein, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and statements, both written and oral, among the parties or any of their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter contained herein except for the Transaction Documents which shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.  Other than as expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall not be assigned without the prior written consent of the other Investors, provided that each Investor may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any portfolio companies of such Investor or Buyer, Parent or any subsidiary thereof) that is able to make the representations and warranties made by such Investor set forth in this Agreement and such Investor’s Equity Commitment Letter, Funding Agreement and Support Agreement, as applicable; provided, further, that such assignment would not reasonably be expected to result in any material delay in satisfying, or increase the risk of not satisfying, the conditions to the Closing set forth in the Merger Agreement and the assignee is capable of performing its obligations under such Investor’s Equity Commitment Letter, Funding Agreement and Support Agreement, as applicable, including having the financial capacity necessary to fund the full amount of the Equity Commitment or the equity securities to comply with the Rollover Commitment that is being assigned, provided, further, such assignee shall, as a condition of such assignment, execute a joinder to this Agreement in a form to be reasonably acceptable to the Lead Investor, provided, further, that no such assignment shall be permitted (i) in violation of applicable Law, or (ii) that would (x) require any additional licensing, regulatory consent or other additional regulatory proceeding to be obtained or participated in by any of the Investors, Parent, Buyer, Merger Sub or the Company (the “Transaction Parties”) or otherwise subject any Transaction Party or its Affiliates to any additional substantive regulation or (y) cause any statement made or information provided to a regulatory authority prior to such assignment to become materially untrue or misleading (other than any statement made or information provided related solely to the identity of such Investor) or (iii) that would cause all or any portion of the assets of the applicable co-invest vehicle to constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of ERISA, the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the applicable provisions of any similar law.  Any assignment in derogation of the foregoing shall be null and void.  In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any Equity Commitment Letter, Funding Agreement or Support Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall (x) any Co-Investor’s Commitment be increased without its prior written consent or (y) any Equity Commitment Letter be enforced without giving effect to the maximum amount of the Equity Commitment or Section 3 or Section 12 therein.

16

3.11
No Representations, Warranties or Duties. Each Investor specifically understands and agrees that no Investor has made or will make any representation or warranty with respect to the terms, value or any other aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Investor explicitly disclaims (a) except as expressly provided in Section 2.7, any warranty, express or implied, with respect to such matters and (b) any reliance, express or implied, thereon.  In addition, each Investor specifically acknowledges, represents and warrants that it is not relying on any other Investor (x) for its due diligence concerning, or evaluation of, the Company or its assets or businesses, (y) for its decision with respect to making any investment contemplated hereby or (z) with respect to tax and other economic considerations involved in such investment.  In making any determination contemplated by this Agreement, each Investor may make such determination in its sole and absolute discretion, taking into account only such Investor’s own views, self-interest, objectives and concerns.  No Investor shall have any fiduciary or other duty to any other Investor or to Parent or Buyer except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or any other agreement to which such Investor is a party.

3.12
No Agreement Among Co-Investors. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement was solely in the control of Buyer and Parent and the Lead Investor (collectively, the “Specified Parties”), and not the action or decision of any Co-Investor, and was done solely for the convenience of the Specified Parties and not because they were required or requested to do so by any Co-Investor.  It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Specified Parties on the one hand and each Co-Investor on the other hand, and not among the Specified Parties and the Co-Investors collectively and not between and among the Co-Investors.  Accordingly, no Co-Investor may enforce any provision of this Agreement against any other Co-Investor and the liability of each Investor hereunder shall be several and not joint or joint and several.  Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or the Transaction or any other matters.

3.13
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signature of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument.  A signature delivered by facsimile transmission or telecopy, by electronic mail in portable document format (.pdf) or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., www.docusign.com) shall be deemed to be an original signature for all purposes under this letter agreement.  The parties irrevocably and unreservedly agree that this letter agreement may be executed by way of electronic signatures and the parties agree that this letter agreement, or any part thereof, shall not be challenged or denied any legal effect, validity and/or enforceability solely on the ground that it is in the form of an electronic record.

17

3.14
Capacity. This Agreement is being entered into by Casalena solely in his capacity as a record and/or beneficial owner of capital shares of the Company, and nothing in this Agreement shall restrict or limit the ability of Casalena or any other director or officer of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries to take, or refrain from taking, any action in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the exercise of fiduciary duties to the Company or its stockholders, and any such action taken in such capacity or any such inaction shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
