Such proxy shall not be terminated by operation of any Law or upon the occurrence of any other event other than upon the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, at which time such proxy shall automatically terminate. Parent may terminate this proxy with respect to the Stockholder at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to the Stockholder.

Section 2.4 Other Voting Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Stockholder shall remain free to vote or exercise its right to consent with respect to the Covered Company Shares on any matter not covered by Section 2.2 in any manner the Stockholder deems appropriate; provided that such vote or consent would not reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with or prevent the consummation of the Offer or the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
