Article II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK
OF THE CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS

Effect on Capital Stock

. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Merger Consideration. Each share of Common Stock (as defined below) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such share, a “Share”) (other than (i) Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other wholly owned subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time and Shares owned by the Company or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company immediately prior the Effective Time, including Shares held in treasury by the Company, and in each case not held on behalf of third parties (collectively, the “Cancelled Shares”), (ii) the Dissenting Shares (as defined below) and (iii) Shares of Restricted Stock (as defined below)) shall be converted automatically into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive $22.00 per share in cash, without interest (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all of the Shares that have been converted into a right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 2.1(a) shall no longer be outstanding, shall be cancelled and extinguished automatically and shall cease to exist, and each former holder of such Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares, except for the right to receive the Per Share

-3-

Merger Consideration for each such Share to be paid in consideration therefor in accordance with this Article II.

(b) Cancellation of Cancelled Shares. Each Cancelled Share shall cease to be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled without any conversion thereof or payment of any consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.

(c) Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Merger Sub, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Treatment of Company Equity Awards

(d) Treatment of Options. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to in writing between a holder of an Option (as defined below) and Parent, each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase Shares (an “Option”) granted under a Company Stock Plan shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, become immediately vested and be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Option to receive (without interest), at or promptly after the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to (x) the total number of Shares subject to such Option multiplied by (y) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the exercise price per Share under such Option, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, any Option which has a per Share exercise price that is greater than or equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be cancelled at the Effective Time for no consideration or payment and shall have no further force or effect.

(e) Treatment of Share Units. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to in writing between a holder of a Share Unit (as defined below) and Parent, each outstanding share of Restricted Stock, restricted share unit (other than a PSU), deferred share unit, phantom share unit or similar stock right (any such arrangement, other than a PSU, a “Share Unit”), granted under a Company Stock Plan shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, become immediately vested and be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such Share Unit to receive (without interest), at or promptly after the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to (x) the total number of Shares subject to such Share Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment.

(f) Treatment of Performance-Based Share Units. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to in writing between a holder of a PSU (as defined below) and Parent, each outstanding performance-based share unit (any such arrangement, a “PSU”), granted under a Company Stock Plan shall automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, become immediately vested and be cancelled and shall only entitle the holder of such PSU to receive (without interest), at or promptly after the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to (i) the number of Shares subject to such PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, calculated based on the greater of (A) actual

-4-

performance achieved in accordance with the terms of such PSU and this Section 2.2(c), and (B) target level performance over the entire performance period, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration, less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. For purposes of measuring actual performance as described in clause (A) of the preceding sentence, (i) any performance measures related to total shareholder return shall be calculated by, first, determining the volume weighted average closing trading price of the Company’s (or relevant peer group’s) common stock over the thirty trading days commencing on the first trading day occurring after the date of public announcement of this Agreement, and then, second, using such average prices as the “ending prices” for purposes of calculating relative total shareholder return (with the resulting relative total shareholder return calculations as of the last day of such thirty trading day period being substituted as the total shareholder return criteria for such PSU) and (ii) any performance measures related to goals other than total shareholder return shall be calculated based on extrapolation of the actual performance results achieved through the Effective Time as applied to the duration of the relevant performance periods, with such extrapolation calculations to be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and subject to Parent’s review prior to the Effective Time in good faith and consistent with past practice.

(g) Cancellation of Company Equity Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise agreed to in writing, following the Effective Time, no Option, Share Unit or PSU that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding, and each former holder of any Option, Share Unit or PSU shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration (if any) in exchange for such Option, Share Unit or PSU set forth in Section 2.2(a), Section 2.2(b) and Section 2.2(c).

(h) Corporate Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are necessary or required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.2 and shall take all actions necessary to terminate each Company Stock Plan as of the Effective Time without any ongoing liability to Parent.

(i) Required Payments. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the aggregate amount owed to holders of Options, Share Units and PSUs (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)). As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later than the next regularly scheduled payroll date following the Closing Date (provided such payroll date shall be not less than three (3) Business Days following the Closing Date), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the applicable former holders of Options, Share Units and PSUs to receive a payment from the Surviving Corporation, through its payroll system or payroll provider, of all amounts required to be paid to such former holders in respect of Options, Share Units and PSUs that were cancelled and converted pursuant to Sections 2.2(a), 2.2(b) or 2.2(c), as applicable (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment owed to a holder of Options, Share Units and PSUs pursuant to Sections 2.2(a), 2.2(b) or 2.2(c), as applicable, cannot be made through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system or payroll provider, then the Surviving Corporation shall issue a check for such payment

-5-

to such holder (less applicable withholding taxes), which check shall be sent by courier to such holder promptly following the Closing Date (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any such amounts relate to a Company Equity Award that is nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Company and/or the Surviving Corporation shall pay such amounts at the earliest time permitted under the terms of the applicable agreement, plan or arrangement relating to such Company Equity Award that will not trigger a tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code.

Surrender of Shares

(j) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall enter into an agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company with a paying agent selected by Parent with the Company’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, to act as agent for the shareholders of the Company in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) to receive payment of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration to which the shareholders of the Company shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a). Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, a cash amount in immediately available funds sufficient in the aggregate to provide all funds necessary for the Paying Agent to pay the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”) in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Shares that will be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a). With respect to any Dissenting Shares, Parent shall not be required to deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the Per Share Merger Consideration that would be payable in respect of such Dissenting Shares if such Dissenting Shares were not Dissenting Shares. The Paying Agent shall not invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund unless otherwise directed by Parent; provided that any 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. To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to make prompt cash payment of the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration as contemplated hereby, Parent shall promptly replace or restore, or cause to be replaced or restored, the cash in the Exchange Fund lost through such investments or other events so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient to make such cash payments. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable under Section 2.1(a) shall be promptly returned to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as requested by Parent. The funds deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) shall not be used for any purpose other than as contemplated by this Section 2.3(a).

(k) Exchange Procedures.

-6-

(i) Transmittal Materials. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail or otherwise provide to each former holder of record of a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares, if any (“Certificates”), and each former holder of record of Shares held in book-entry form (“Book-Entry Shares”) (other than holders of Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) (A) transmittal materials, including a letter of transmittal in customary form as agreed by the Parties, specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent or, with respect to Book-Entry Shares, only upon proper delivery of an “agent’s message” regarding the book-entry transfer of Book-Entry Shares (or such other evidence, if any, of the book-entry transfer of Book-Entry Shares as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), such transmittal materials to be in such form and to have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(ii) Certificates. Upon surrender of one or more Certificates to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such transmittal materials and instructions as contemplated in Section 2.3(b)(i), together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, each holder of record of one or more Certificates, if any, shall be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, a cash amount in immediately available funds (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Shares represented by such Certificates by (B) the Per Share Merger Consideration, and the Certificates so surrendered shall immediately be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates.

(iii) Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares will not be required to deliver a Certificate to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to pursuant to this Article II. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares (other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall upon receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (it being understood that the holders of Book-Entry Shares shall be deemed to have surrendered such Shares upon receipt by the Paying Agent of such “agent’s message” or such other evidence, if any, as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, a cash amount in immediately available funds (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Shares represented by such Book-Entry Shares by (B) the Per Share Merger Consideration, and the Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall immediately be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Book-Entry Shares.

-7-

(iv) Unrecorded Transfers; Other Payments. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company or if payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, are registered, a check for any cash to be exchanged upon due surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, may be issued to such transferee or other Person if the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, formerly representing such Shares are properly presented to the Paying Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable transfer or other similar Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(v) Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.3(b), each Certificate and Book-Entry Share (other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender (together, if applicable, with a letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions (as applicable)) the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article II. The Surviving Corporation shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, in connection with the exchange of Shares for the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(l) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains unclaimed by the former holders of Shares for 12 months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation upon demand. Any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter be entitled to look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)) upon delivery of evidence of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares acceptable to the Surviving Corporation, without any interest thereon in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.3(b), and the Surviving Corporation shall remain responsible for (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) payment of such holder’s claim for the Per Share Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Surviving Corporation, Parent, the Company, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such holders immediately prior to such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims of interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(m) Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any evidence of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share is

-8-

presented, and acceptable, to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for transfer, subject to compliance with the procedures set forth in this Article II, it shall be cancelled and exchanged for the cash amount in immediately available funds to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (without interest and after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)). The Per Share Merger Consideration paid upon surrender of Certificates or receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message”, if applicable, in the case of Book-Entry Shares, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Article II, shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable.

(n) Lost Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stole or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such customary terms as may be reasonably required by Parent as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.3(f)) equal to the amount the holder of such Certificate is entitled to as set forth in this Article II.

(o) Withholding Rights. Each of the Paying Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Surviving Corporation (and any agent or Affiliate thereof) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement to any recipient of payments hereunder such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and remitted to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Appraisal Rights

. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if required by the OGCL (but only to the extent required thereby) any Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by holders who have not voted such Shares in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and who are entitled to and have properly demanded dissenters rights with respect thereto in accordance with, and otherwise have complied in all respects with, Section 1701.85 of the OGCL and have not effectively withdrawn such demand (collectively, “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(a), unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or otherwise irrevocably lost or failed to perfect such Person’s right to appraisal or payment under the OGCL, at which time such Shares shall thereupon be automatically converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time, the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(a), without interest and after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings pursuant to Section 2.3(f), and such Shares shall not be deemed Dissenting Shares, and such holder thereof shall cease to have any other rights with respect to such Shares. Each Dissenting Share shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and extinguished and shall cease to exist at the Effective Time, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive only the payment of the fair cash value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the

-9-

provisions of, and as provided by, Section 1701.85 of the OGCL with respect to such Dissenting Shares unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or otherwise lost or failed to perfect such Person’s right to appraisal or payment under the OGCL. The Company shall give Parent (a) prompt written notice of any written demands for appraisal, any withdrawals of such demands, and any other written demand, notice, withdrawal or instrument pursuant to applicable Law that are received by or delivered to the Company relating to shareholders’ rights of appraisal or to such demands or withdrawals and (b) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect thereto. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, and prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Company, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or compromise, or settle or compromise or otherwise negotiate, any such demands, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or otherwise to comply with the provisions under Section 1701.85 of the OGCL, or propose or agree to do any of the foregoing.

Adjustments

. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares issued and outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time shall have been changed into a different number of Shares or securities or a different class as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), combination, stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, subdivision, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, then the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide to Parent and the holders of Shares, Options, Share Units and PSUs the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided that nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be construed to permit the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any other Person to take any action that is otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Further Assurances

. If at any time after the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments, actions or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation and their respective officers and directors shall be authorized to execute and deliver, following the Effective Time, all such proper instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

The Company further agrees to cause the Proxy Statement as so corrected or supplemented promptly to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to its shareholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable Law.

The Company, acting through its Board of Directors (or a committee thereof), shall as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date on which the Company is made aware that the SEC will not review the Proxy Statement or has no further comments on the Proxy Statement, take all action required under the OGCL, the Articles of Incorporation, the Code of Regulations and the applicable requirements of the NYSE necessary to promptly and duly call, give notice of, convene and hold as promptly as reasonably practicable a meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of approving and adopting this Agreement (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Shareholders Meeting”); provided that the Company may postpone, recess or adjourn such meeting (and shall postpone, recess or adjourn if requested by Parent (but in such case the Company shall not be required to postpone or adjourn the Shareholders Meeting to a date that is more than 20 calendar days after the date on which the Shareholders Meeting was originally scheduled)) (i) to the extent required by Law or fiduciary duty, (ii) to allow reasonable additional time to solicit additional proxies to

-45-

the extent the Company reasonably believes necessary in order to obtain the Company Requisite Vote, (iii) if as of the time for which the Shareholders Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) and voting to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Shareholders Meeting or (iv) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement or any supplemental or additional disclosure, in each case, as required by applicable Law or fiduciary duty (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel) is provided to the shareholders of the Company a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Shareholders Meeting to permit such shareholder to review such supplement, amendment or disclosure prior to the Shareholder’s Meeting. The Company, acting through its Board of Directors (or a committee thereof), shall (a) include in the Proxy Statement the Recommendation (subject to Section 6.1(b)(iv)), and, subject to the consent of such Financial Advisor, the written opinion of the Financial Advisor, and (b) subject to Section 6.1(b)(iv), use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company Requisite Vote (it being understood that the foregoing shall not require the Board of Directors of the Company to recommend in favor of the adoption of this Agreement if a Change of Recommendation has been effected in accordance with Section 6.1(c)(i) or Section 6.1(c)(ii)); provided that the Board of Directors of the Company may (A) fail to include the Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (B) withdraw, modify, qualify, amend or change the Recommendation, (C) fail to recommend in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 against any Acquisition Proposal that is a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Regulation 14D promulgated under the Exchange Act for outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than by Parent or an Affiliate of Parent), in each case, within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement thereof, (D) recommend, adopt or approve any Acquisition Proposal, or (E) formally resolve to effect or publicly announce an intention or resolution to effect any of the foregoing (any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), a “Change of Recommendation”), in each case solely in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 6.1(c)(i) or Section 6.1(c)(ii) and, following such Change of Recommendation, may fail to use such reasonable best efforts. Notwithstanding any Change of Recommendation, unless this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Article VIII, this Agreement shall be submitted to the Company shareholders and the Company shall be required to hold the Shareholders Meeting.

Further Action; Efforts

(j) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party shall (and, in the case of Parent, shall cause each of its subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates (collectively, the “Parent Group”) to) take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary and proper under applicable Laws and regulations in a timely manner as are necessary to cause the conditions to Closing to be satisfied and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement no later than the End Date, including preparing and filing all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and other filings, and obtaining all actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, registrations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, approvals, permits and authorizations necessary or advisable to be obtained from any third party or any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement no later than the End Date. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Party hereto shall (i) make or cause to be made (including, in the case of Parent, by causing its applicable Affiliate to make) (x) an appropriate filing of a

-46-

Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of the date hereof, and (y) the foreign antitrust and foreign investment filings (or, for jurisdictions where submission of a draft prior to formal notification is appropriate, a draft thereof) listed in Section 6.4(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event within 25 Business Days of the date hereof, (ii) make an appropriate response as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable to any request pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law for additional information and documentary material, and (iii) take (subject to Section 6.4(c) and Section 6.4(e) any and all other actions necessary or proper to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law no later than the End Date. No Party shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll, or extend any applicable waiting period, or “pull and refile” pursuant to 16 C.F.R. 803.12 the filing made under the HSR Act, or enter into a timing agreement, including any agreement to delay the consummation or not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, with any Governmental Entity without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

(k) Each of Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts and obligations referenced in Section 6.4(a) to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations or expiration of waiting periods for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) consult and cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party; (ii) subject to applicable Law, furnish to the other Party as promptly as practicable all information required for any application or other filing to be made by the other Party pursuant to any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) promptly notify the other Party of any material communication received by such Party from, or given by such Party to, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or any other U.S. or foreign Governmental Entity and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private Party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby and, subject to applicable Law, furnish the other Party promptly with copies of all material correspondence, filings and communications between them and the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, with the exception of any filing under the HSR Act ; (iv) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable as advisable and appropriate to any inquiries received from or request for any additional information or documentation by the FTC, the DOJ or by any other Governmental Entity in respect of such registrations, declarations and filings or such transactions; and (vi) permit the other Party to review any material communication given by it to, and consult with each other in advance, and consider in good faith the other Party’s reasonable comments in connection with, any filing, notice, application, submission, communication, meeting or conference with, the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other Person. Materials provided to the other Party or its counsel may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (ii) as necessary to comply with

-47-

contractual arrangements or applicable Law, or (iii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client privilege or confidentiality concerns. No Party shall independently participate in any substantive meeting or communication with any Governmental Entity in respect of any such filings, investigation or other inquiry under any Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby without giving the other Parties sufficient prior notice of the meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend and/or participate in such substantive meeting or communication.

(l) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Parent shall, and shall cause each member of the Parent Group, to take any and all steps necessary or proper to (x) resolve, avoid, or eliminate impediments or objections, if any, that may be asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law or (y) avoid the entry of, effect the dissolution of, and have vacated, modified, suspended, eliminated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any decree, decision, determination, order or judgment entered or issued, or that becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered or issued, that would, or would reasonably be expected to, prevent, restrain, enjoin, prohibit, or make unlawful the consummation of the contemplated transactions, so as to enable the Parties to close the contemplated transactions no later than the End Date, including (A) proposing, negotiating, committing to, agreeing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders or otherwise, the sale, lease, divesture, disposition, or license (or holding separate pending such disposition) of any assets, operations, product lines, licenses, properties, products, rights, services or businesses of Parent, or any member of the Parent Group, or the Company or their respective subsidiaries or any interest therein, or (B) otherwise taking or committing or agreeing to restrictions or actions that after the Effective Time would limit Parent’s or any member of Parent Group’s, or the Company’s or their respective subsidiaries’ freedom of action or operations with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, any assets, operations, product lines, licenses, properties, products, rights, services or businesses of Parent or any member of Parent Group, or the Company or their respective subsidiaries or any interest or interests therein, including any restructuring, reorganizing, relocating, reconfiguring of any assets, operations, properties or businesses (any such actions in (A) or (B) a “Regulatory Remedy”); provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent shall have no obligation to undertake any such Regulatory Remedy that would constitute a Non-Required Remedy. The Company shall effectuate or agree to effectuate a Regulatory Remedy if requested to do so by Parent and shall not effectuate or agree to effectuate a Regulatory Remedy without the prior written consent of Parent. Nothing in this Section 6.4(c) or any other provision of this Agreement shall require Parent, Parent Group, or the Company to effectuate or agree to effectuate any Regulatory Remedy unless such Regulatory Remedy is conditioned upon the Closing and only effective following the Closing.

(m) Subject to Section 6.4(c), in the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity or private party challenging the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or any other agreement contemplated hereby, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall, and Parent shall cause each member of the Parent Group to, cooperate in all respects with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, modified, suspended, eliminated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent,

-48-

that is in effect and that prevents, restrains, enjoins, prohibits, makes unlawful, restricts or delays consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(n) Without limiting in any respect Parent’s obligations under this Section 6.4, Parent shall have the right to direct, devise and implement the strategy with respect to any Regulatory Remedy, including with respect to determining when (if at all) to discuss, offer, or agree to any Regulatory Remedy, provided that Parent shall consult with the Company in a reasonable manner and consider in good faith the views and comments of the Company in connection with the foregoing, and provided further that the Parent shall also consider in good faith the views and comments of the Company with respect to all other strategic matters for obtaining the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and the consents of foreign Governmental Entities under Antitrust and Foreign Investment Laws listed in Section 6.4(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter expeditiously (and in no event later than the End Date).

(o) None of Parent or Merger Sub, nor any member of the Parent Group shall, and Parent shall cause each member of the Parent Group not to, acquire or agree to acquire, including by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing a portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any business or any Person, corporation, partnership, association or other business organization or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, properties or equity interests, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation could reasonably be expected to: (i) materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any consents of any Governmental Entity necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Entity seeking or entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise.

(p) Parent will be solely responsible for and pay all filing fees payable to Governmental Entities under any Antitrust and Foreign Investment Law.

Notification of Certain Matters

. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (a) any notice or other communication received by such Party from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated herein, if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such Party to obtain such consent would reasonably be expected to be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent and (b) any Actions commenced or, to such Party’s knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such Party or any of its subsidiaries which relate to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall not (i) cure any breach of, or non-compliance with, any other provision of this Agreement or (ii) limit the remedies available to the Party receiving such notice. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Company’s, on the one hand, and Parent’s, on the other hand, compliance or failure of compliance with this Section 6.5 shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining

-49-

whether the condition referred to in Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.3(b), respectively, shall have been satisfied with respect to performance in all material respects with this Section 6.5.

Access to Information; Confidentiality

(q) Subject to applicable Law and any applicable COVID-19 Measures, from the date hereof to the Effective Time or the earlier valid termination of this Agreement, upon reasonable prior written notice from Parent, the Company shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees and representatives to, afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, consistent with applicable Law, during normal business hours to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ officers, employees, books and records, as reasonably necessary to facilitate consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that such access may be limited to the extent the Company or any of its subsidiaries reasonably determines, in light of applicable COVID-19 or COVID-19 Measures, that such access would reasonably be expected to jeopardize the health and safety of any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, it being understood that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or cause its subsidiaries to provide, such access in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to jeopardize the health and safety of the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such investigation or consultation shall be conducted in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company or its subsidiaries or otherwise result in any significant interference with the prompt and timely discharge by such officers, employees and other authorized Representatives of their normal duties and shall not include any sampling or testing of environmental media or building materials or any other environmental sampling or testing.

(r) The foregoing provisions of Section 6.6(a) shall not require and shall not be construed to require the Company to permit any access to any of its officers, employees, agents, Contracts, books or records, or its properties, offices or other facilities, or to permit any inspection, review, sampling or audit, or to disclose or otherwise make available any information that in the reasonable judgment of the Company would (i) unreasonably interfere with the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ business operations, (ii) result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of any third parties or violate the terms of any confidentiality provisions in any agreement with a third party entered into prior to the date of this Agreement, (iii) result in a violation of applicable Law, including any fiduciary duty, (iv) waive the protection of any attorney-client privilege or (v) result in the disclosure of any personal information that would reasonably be expected to expose the Company to liability under applicable Laws. In the event that the Company objects to any request submitted pursuant to and in accordance with Section 6.6(a) and withholds information on the basis of the foregoing clauses (ii) through (v), the Company shall inform Parent as to the general nature of what is being withheld and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure that does not suffer from any of the foregoing impediments (including, if reasonably requested by Parent, entering into a joint defense agreement with Parent on customary and mutually acceptable terms if requested with respect to any such information). The Company may reasonably designate competitively sensitive material provided to Parent as “Outside Counsel Only Material” or with similar restrictions, which materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of Parent, or otherwise as the restriction

-50-

indicates, and be subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement between the Parties. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 6.6(b) shall be directed to the Person designated by the Company and all information exchanged or made available shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(s) Each of Parent and Merger Sub will comply with the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated March 8, 2021, between the Company and American Securities LLC (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and will hold and treat, and will cause their respective Representatives (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) to hold, treat and use, in confidence all documents and information concerning the Company and its subsidiaries furnished to Parent or Merger Sub in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, which Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

Stock Exchange Delisting

. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of the NYSE to enable the delisting by the Surviving Corporation of the Shares from the NYSE as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and the deregistration of the Shares under the Exchange Act at the Effective Time.

Publicity

. The initial press release regarding the Merger shall be a joint press release and, except in connection with the receipt or existence of an Acquisition Proposal and matters related thereto or a Change of Recommendation, thereafter the Company and Parent shall consult with each other prior to issuing, and give each other the reasonable opportunity to review, any press releases or otherwise making public announcements with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any Regulatory Remedy), and prior to making any filings with any third party and/or any Governmental Entity with respect thereto, except as may be required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any national securities exchange or interdealer quotation service or by the request of any Governmental Entity (or, in the case of the Company, by the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company), in each case, as determined in the good faith judgment of the Party proposing to make such release or other public announcement (in which case, such Party shall not issue or cause the publication of such press release or other public announcement without prior consultation with the other Party); provided, that (a) any such press release or public statement as may be required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange may be issued prior to such consultation if the Party making the release or statement has used its reasonable best efforts to consult with the other Party on a timely basis and (b) each Party may issue public announcements or make other public disclosures regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that consist solely of information previously disclosed in press releases or public statements previously approved by either Party or made by either Party in compliance with this Section 6.8 to the extent such disclosure is consistent in all material respects with the information previously disclosed and still accurate at the time of such disclosure; provided, further, that the first sentence of this

-51-

Section 6.8 shall not apply to any disclosure of information concerning this Agreement in connection with any dispute between the Parties regarding this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates may provide ordinary course communications regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to existing or prospective general and limited partners, equity holders, members, managers and investors of any Affiliates of such Person, in each case, who are subject to customary confidentiality restrictions.

Employee Benefits

(t) For a period of 12 months following the Effective Time (the “Benefit Continuation Period”), Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, to each employee of the Company or its subsidiaries who continues to be employed by the Surviving Corporation or any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (the “Continuing Employees”), (i) a base salary, base wage, short-term cash target bonus opportunity and commissions opportunity that, in each case, is no less favorable than the base salary, base wage, short-term cash target bonus opportunity and commissions opportunity that was provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) employee pension, welfare and other benefits (other than equity or equity-based benefits), severance, deferred compensation, and defined benefit plan benefits (other than as where continuation would be required by applicable Law during the continuation period) retiree that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the employee pension, welfare and other benefits (other than equity or equity-based benefits) severance, and deferred compensation provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time under the Company Plans set forth on Section 3.11(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter. For the duration of the Benefit Continuation Period, Parent or one of its Affiliates shall maintain for the benefit of each Continuing Employee a severance or termination arrangement no less favorable in the aggregate than the severance or termination arrangement provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time. With respect to the Company’s fiscal year during which the Effective Time occurs, Parent shall honor and assume, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor and assume, all annual bonus and incentive plans of the Company (and any awards or other incentive opportunities granted thereunder) in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and, with respect to any performance metrics applicable to such annual bonus and incentive plans, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, calculate performance in accordance with the terms of the applicable annual bonus and incentive plans of the Company and its subsidiaries. This Section 6.9(a) shall not apply to Continuing Employees whose terms and conditions of employment are governed by a collective bargaining agreement.

(u) Parent shall honor and assume, or shall cause to be honored and assumed, the terms of all Company Plans, subject to the amendment and termination provisions thereof.

(v) The Company may establish a cash-based retention program as set forth in Section 6.9(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, which shall not exceed $8 million in the aggregate, consisting of a maximum of (i) $5 million in the aggregate for the fiscal year 2021, (ii) $1.5 million in the aggregate for the first fiscal quarter of 2022 and (iii) $1.5 million in the aggregate for the second fiscal quarter of 2022.

-52-

(w) To the extent that Parent modifies any coverage or benefit plan in which Continuing Employees participate, Parent or any of its subsidiaries (including the Company and any subsidiaries thereof) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive or cause to be waived any pre-existing conditions, exclusions, limitations, actively-at-work requirements, and eligibility waiting periods under any group health plans of Parent or its Affiliates to be waived with respect to Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents to the same extent such requirements were met or otherwise not applicable under Company Plan, (ii) give each Continuing Employee credit for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs towards applicable deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits for medical expenses incurred prior to the Effective Time for which payment has been made and (iii) to the extent that it would not result in a duplication of benefits and to the same extent and the same purpose that such service was recognized under a similar Company Plan, give each Continuing Employee service credit for such Continuing Employee’s employment with the Company for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting credit (but excluding benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan or retire medical plan) under each applicable Parent benefit plan (other than any equity based benefit plan) as if such service had been performed with Parent.

(x) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Continuing Employee any right to continue in the employ or service of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any Continuing Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Company or any Affiliate of Parent and the Continuing Employee or any severance, benefit or other applicable plan, policy or program covering such Continuing Employee. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.9(e) shall (i) be deemed or construed to be an amendment or other modification of any Company Plan or any other employee benefit plan, program or arrangements, (ii) prevent Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent from amending or terminating any Company Plans or any other employee benefit plan, program or arrangement or (iii) create any third-party rights in any current or former service provider of the Company or its Affiliates (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof).

Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance

(y) From and after the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless each present (as of the Effective Time) and former director and officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (in each case, when acting in such capacity) (the “Indemnified Parties”), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or awards paid in settlement incurred in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal (each, a “Proceeding”), arising out of, relating to or in connection with the fact that such Person is or was a director or officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or serving in such capacity at the request thereof or any acts or omissions occurring or alleged to occur prior to the Effective Time in such person’s capacity as a director or officer of the

-53-

Company or any of its subsidiaries or serving in such capacity at the request thereof, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company would have been permitted under Ohio Law and its Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such Person (and Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Proceeding to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Articles of Incorporation, the Code of Regulations or the certificate of incorporation, articles of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational documents, of any subsidiary; provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.10); provided further that any determination required to be made with respect to whether an officer’s or director’s conduct complies with the standards set forth under Ohio Law and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations shall be made by independent counsel selected by the Surviving Corporation, but otherwise qualifying under Section 1701.13(e)(4) of the OGCL. In the event of any such Proceeding (x) neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Proceeding in which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Proceeding or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents, and (y) the Surviving Corporation shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of any such matter. In the event any Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party and in which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party under this Section 6.10, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall have the right to control the defense thereof after the Effective Time, (ii) each Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain his or her own counsel, whether or not the Surviving Corporation shall elect to control the defense of any such Proceeding, (iii) the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by an Indemnified Party promptly after statements therefor are received, whether or not the Surviving Corporation shall elect to control the defense of any such Proceeding, and (iv) no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any settlement effected without his or her prior express written consent.

(z) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 6.10, upon learning of any such Proceeding, shall promptly notify Parent thereof, but the failure to so notify shall not relieve Parent or the Surviving Corporation of any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying Party.

(aa) The provisions in the Surviving Corporation’s articles of incorporation and code of regulations with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of former or present directors and officers shall be no less favorable to such directors and officers than such provisions contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations in effect as of the date hereof, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years after the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any such individuals.

(bb) At Parent’s option, the Company shall purchase from insurance carriers with comparable credit ratings, no later than the Effective Time, a six-year prepaid “tail policy” providing at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no

-54-

less advantageous to the insured than the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or before the Effective Time, including the transactions contemplated hereby, and from insurance carriers having at least an “A” rating by A.M. Best with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance; provided, however, that after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay in the aggregate for such coverage under each such policy more than 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date hereof in respect of the coverage required to be obtained pursuant hereto under each such policy, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as reasonably practicable for such amount. In the event the Company elects to purchase such a “tail policy”, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail policy” in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder. If the Company elects not to purchase such a “tail policy”, then Parent shall maintain, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the beneficiaries, in effect for at least six years from the Effective Time the current policies of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company (provided that Parent or the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions which are not less advantageous to any beneficiary thereof) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and from insurance carriers having at least an “A” rating by A.M. Best with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Parent agrees to honor and perform under, and to cause the Surviving Corporation to honor and perform under, all indemnification agreements entered into by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with any Indemnified Party which are in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(cc) If Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall assume or succeed to all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.10.

(dd) The provisions of this Section 6.10 shall survive the Merger for a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their heirs and representatives.

(ee) The rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 shall be in addition to any rights such Indemnified Parties may have under the Articles of Incorporation or Code of Regulations of the Company or the comparable governing instruments of any of its subsidiaries, or under any applicable Contracts or Laws. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or its or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.10 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

(ff) Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof but taking into account the timing of the Marketing Period, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange, obtain and consummate the Financing on the terms and conditions described in or contemplated by the Financing Commitments (including complying with any request requiring the exercise of so-called “market flex” provisions in the fee letter), including using reasonable best efforts to (A) maintain in full force and effect the Financing Commitments, (B) negotiate and execute definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on the terms contained in the Debt Financing Commitments (including any “market flex” provisions applicable thereto) or on terms that, taken as a whole, are no less favorable in the aggregate to Parent than the terms contained in the Debt Financing Commitments (including any “market flex” provisions applicable thereto), in each case, which terms shall not in any respect expand on, or add to, the conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing at the Closing or reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing available to be funded at the Closing below the amount required to fund the Financing Uses; provided that, without expanding on or adding to the conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing at the Closing, Parent and Merger Sub shall be permitted to increase the total amount of Debt Financing (such definitive agreements, the “Definitive Financing Agreements”) and (C) satisfy on a timely basis (or obtain the waiver of) all conditions and covenants applicable to Parent or Merger Sub in the Financing Commitments and such Definitive Financing Agreements that are to be satisfied by Parent or Merger Sub and consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing if all conditions to the Financing are then satisfied. Parent shall obtain the Equity Financing contemplated by the Equity Financing Commitment upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Closing in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing). Parent shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of any material developments concerning the status of its efforts to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing and Parent shall promptly respond to any request from the Company concerning such status. Upon reasonable prior written request, Parent shall provide the Company with copies of any final Definitive Financing Agreements and such other material information and documentation regarding the Debt Financing as shall be reasonably necessary to allow the Company to monitor the progress of such financing activities.

(gg) In the event that Parent becomes aware that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “market flex” provisions applicable thereto) contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitments, Parent shall promptly notify the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts and as promptly as practicable after the occurrence of such event, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain alternative debt financing from the same or alternative Debt Financing Sources in an amount sufficient, when added to the portion of the Financing that is and remains available to Parent, together with cash on hand at Parent and its subsidiaries, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay all Financing Uses (“Alternative Financing”) and to obtain and provide the Company with a copy of, the new financing commitment that provides for such Alternative

-56-

Financing (the “Alternative Financing Commitment Letter”), which Alternative Financing Commitment Letter will not (i) include terms and conditions (including any “market flex” provisions applicable thereto) that are materially less beneficial to Parent than those contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitments (including any “market flex” provisions applicable thereto) or involve (or expand upon) any conditions to funding of the Debt Financing that are not contained in the Debt Financing Commitments or (ii) reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impede, or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that such reasonable best efforts shall not require Parent to pay more fees, OIDs or incur an increase in pricing than the pricing terms of the Debt Financing Commitments as in effect on the date hereof, taking into account “market flex” terms. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, in the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor, but any bridge facilities contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments (or alternative bridge facilities obtained in accordance with this Section 6.11(b)) are available on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Financing Commitments (or replacements thereof), then Parent shall cause the proceeds of such bridge financing to be used in lieu of such contemplated Debt Financing as promptly as practicable. As applicable, references in this Agreement (other than with respect to representations in this Agreement made by Parent that speak as of the date hereof) (i) to Financing or Debt Financing shall include Alternative Financing, (ii) to Financing Commitments or Debt Financing Commitments shall include the Alternative Financing Commitment Letter and (iii) to Definitive Financing Agreements shall include the definitive documentation relating to any such Alternative Financing. Parent shall promptly deliver to the Company true and complete copies of all agreements pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide Parent and Merger Sub with any portion of the Alternative Financing necessary to fund the Financing Uses.

(hh) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.11(b), Parent shall promptly (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day) notify the Company in writing of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) termination, withdrawal, repudiation, rescission, cancellation or expiration of any Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement , (ii) any actual breach or default under any Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement by any party to such Debt Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement and (iii) receipt by any of Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives of any written notice or other written communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any (A) actual, threatened or alleged breach, default, termination, withdrawal, rescission or repudiation by any party to any Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement or any provision of any provision of any Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement (including any proposal by any Debt Financing Source, lender or other Person to withdraw, terminate, repudiate, rescind or make a material change in the terms of (including the amount of Financing contemplated) any Financing Commitment) or (B) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Financing Commitment or Definitive Financing Agreement or (iv) if for any reason Parent in good faith believes that it is reasonably likely that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Financing Commitments or the Definitive Financing Agreements. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, Parent shall provide to the Company and its Representatives any and all information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any of the circumstances referred to in this Section 6.11(c).

-57-

(ii) Parent and Merger Sub shall not permit or consent to or agree to (i) any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement, termination, reduction or other modification or waiver of any condition, provision or remedy under, the Equity Financing Commitment (other than to increase the amount of Equity Financing available thereunder), (ii) any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement, termination or other modification or waiver of any condition, provision or remedy under, the Debt Financing Commitments or Definitive Financing Agreements if such amendment, restatement, supplement, termination, reduction, modification or waiver would reasonably be expected to (A) impose new or additional conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing or would otherwise change, amend, modify or expand any of the conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing, in any such case, from those set forth in the Debt Financing Commitments on the date of this Agreement, (B) materially impair, delay or prevent the availability of all or a portion of the Debt Financing or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, taking into account the timing of the Marketing Period, (C) reduce the aggregate net cash amount of the Debt Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing (except as set forth in any “market flex” provisions existing on the date of this Agreement) or (D) otherwise adversely affect the ability of Parent to enforce its rights under the Debt Financing Commitments, or (iii) the early termination of the Financing Commitments or any Definitive Financing Agreement. Parent shall furnish to the Company a copy of any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement, modification, waiver or consent of or relating to the Financing Commitments or Definitive Financing Agreements promptly upon execution thereof on the date hereof. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Financing Commitments until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or the Financing Commitments are terminated pursuant to the terms thereof as in effect on the date hereof; provided however, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent may amend, replace, supplement and/or modify the Debt Financing Commitments (i) solely to add additional Debt Financing Sources as parties thereto who had not executed the Debt Financing Commitments as of the date hereof or (ii) solely to increase the total amount of Debt Financing provided thereunder. For purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to representations in this Agreement made by Parent or Merger Sub that speak as of the date hereof), references to the “Debt Financing Commitments” shall include such document as permitted or required by this Section 6.11 to be amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified or waived, in each case from and after such amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement or other modification or waiver.

-82-

event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of actual damages and without any requirement for the posting of security, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for such breach. The Parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to the Closing, the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, including Section 6.4 [Further Action; Efforts] and Section 6.11 [Parent Financing]) by Parent or Merger Sub and to cause Parent or Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (for the avoidance of doubt, including to effect the Closing in accordance with Section 1.2 [Closing]) on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement.

Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (x) either Party has an adequate remedy at law or (y) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may concurrently seek (i) specific performance or other equitable relief, subject in all respects to this Section 9.12 and (ii) payment of the applicable Parent Termination Fee or monetary damages if, as and when required pursuant to this Agreement, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance to cause the Equity Financing to be funded (whether under this Agreement or the
