WHEREAS, the parties intend that the Company be merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving the merger on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the “Merger”).

WHEREAS, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company has unanimously (a) determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement, (b) approved the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and (c) resolved to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Board of Parent has resolved to submit to the stockholders of Parent for their approval the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock (as defined in Section 3.1(a)).

WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby agree as follows:

Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions hereof, and in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the DGCL and the Limited Liability Company Act, at the Effective Time, the Company shall be merged with and into Merger Sub. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease and Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving entity in the Merger as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. Merger Sub as the surviving entity after the Merger is sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Entity.”

(a) Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 9:00 a.m. (Central time) on a date to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the second Business Day after satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law (as defined in Section 4.3(b)) waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than any such conditions which by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing Date, which shall be required to be so satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waived on the Closing Date), at the offices of Baker Botts L.L.P., 910 Louisiana Street, Houston, Texas 77002, unless another date, time or place is agreed to in writing between Parent and the Company. The “Closing Date” is the date on which the Closing occurs. “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banks are required or authorized by Law to be closed in New York, New York.

(b) Effective Time. On the Closing Date or as promptly as practicable thereafter, the Company shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger, in accordance with the DGCL and the Limited Liability Company Act, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Merger”), in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of, the DGCL and the Limited Liability Company Act (the time of such filing (or such later time as is specified in such Certificate of Merger as agreed between Parent and the Company) being the “Effective Time”).

At the Effective Time, the Merger will have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL and the Limited Liability Company Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of the Company and the Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Surviving Entity.

The certificate of formation of Merger Sub shall be and remain the certificate of formation of the Surviving Entity from and after the Effective Time, until thereafter amended in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Act. The limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Entity from and after the Effective Time, until thereafter amended in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Act, the Surviving Entity’s Certificate of Formation and such limited liability company agreement.

From and after the Effective Time, the managers and officers of Merger Sub shall be the managers and officers of the Surviving Entity, in each case, until the earlier of their death, resignation, removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in accordance with the Surviving Entity’s Certificate of Formation and the Limited Liability Company Act.

Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all necessary corporate action so that upon and after the Effective Time the size of the Board of Parent is increased by three members, and three members of the Board of the Company who are independent with respect to Parent selected by mutual agreement of Company and Parent (the “Company Directors”) are appointed to the Board of Parent to fill the vacancies on the Board of Parent created by such increase. Parent, through the Board of Parent and subject to the Board of Parent’s fiduciary duties to the stockholders of Parent, shall take all necessary action to nominate the Company Directors for election to the Board of Parent in the proxy statement relating to the first annual meeting of the stockholders of Parent following the Closing.

As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any other holder of any shares of capital stock of the Company or limited liability company interests of Merger Sub:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 3.1(f), each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Company Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(d) and any Appraisal Shares) shall be converted automatically at the Effective Time into the right to receive 1.12 shares of common stock of the Parent (the “Stock Exchange Ratio”), par value $2.50 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), and $19.00 in cash (the “Cash Portion,” and together with the Stock Exchange Ratio, the “Merger Consideration”).

(b) Certificates. All shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of (i) a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such shares of Company Common Stock (a “Stock Certificate”) or (ii) a non-certificated share of Company Common Stock held by book entry (a “Book Entry Share”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, upon the surrender of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share in accordance with Section 3.3: (A) the Merger Consideration, (B) certain dividends and other distributions under Section 3.1(e), and (C) cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock under Section 3.1(f), in each case without interest, and in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share in accordance with Section 3.3.

(c) Adjustments. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock shall be changed or proposed to be changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of the occurrence of or record date with respect to any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar readjustment, in any such case within such period, or a stock dividend thereon shall be declared with a record date within such period, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Merger Consideration to provide to the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 3.1(c) shall be construed to permit any party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

(d) Treatment of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company and each share of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Entity or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and no cash, Parent Common Stock or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(e) Dividends and Distributions. No dividends or other distributions declared or made having a record date after the Effective Time with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share with respect to the applicable Merger Consideration represented thereby until the holder of record of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share has surrendered such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share in accordance with Section 3.3. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws (including escheat and abandoned property laws), following surrender of any such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, in addition to the applicable Merger Consideration, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to the Merger Consideration, and (ii) if the payment date for any dividend or distribution payable with respect to the Merger Consideration has not occurred prior to the surrender of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share, at the appropriate payment date therefor, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time (but prior to the surrender of such Stock Certificate) and a payment date subsequent to the surrender of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock, all shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be entitled to dividends pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if such shares of Parent Common Stock were issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.

(f) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger, no dividend or other distribution, stock split or interest shall relate to any such fractional share interest and fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent. Each holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking

account of all Stock Certificates and Book Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash (without interest) equal to such fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock rounding to the nearest ten thousandth of a share that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a) multiplied by the Market Price rounded to the nearest whole cent. “Market Price” means the volume-weighted average price per share of Parent Common Stock for the five (5) most recent trading days ending on the third full trading day prior to the Effective Time for sales conducted regular way on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), as such volume-weighted average price is calculated on the VAP screen on the Bloomberg Professional (TM) Service and shown as VWAP for such period.

(g) Membership Interests of Merger Sub. The membership interests of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and shall constitute the only outstanding membership interests of the Surviving Entity.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any record holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Appraisal Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.1, but instead at the Effective Time shall become the right to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, and at the Effective Time all Appraisal Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, then (i) such shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon cease to constitute Appraisal Shares and (ii) the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Appraisal Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL shall be forfeited and cease and if such forfeiture shall occur following the Effective Time, each such Appraisal Share shall thereafter be deemed to have been converted into and to have become, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive, without interest thereon, the Merger Consideration. The Company shall deliver prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock (provided that the failure of the Company to deliver such prompt notice shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement) and the Company shall provide Parent with the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall authorize one or more transfer agent(s) reasonably satisfactory to the Company to act as agent for the holders of Company Common Stock in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for

the benefit of the holders of the Company Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article III through the Exchange Agent, sufficient cash and Parent Common Stock to make pursuant to this Article III all deliveries of cash and Parent Common Stock payable in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Merger Consideration in exchange for surrendered shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1 out of the Exchange Fund. Except as contemplated by Section 3.3(d), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Exchange Procedure. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record as of the Effective Time of (i) each Stock Certificate and (ii) each Book Entry Share, (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent or, in the case of Book Entry Shares, upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal, and shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company), and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Stock Certificates and Book Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a). Exchange of any Book Entry Shares shall be effected in accordance with the Exchange Agent’s customary procedures with respect to securities represented by book entry. Promptly after the Effective Time, upon surrender of a Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (x) one or more shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall only be in uncertificated book-entry form) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock then held by such holder) and (y) a check in the amount equal to the aggregate amount of cash that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 and this Article III, including cash payable in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(f) and dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 3.1(e), and the Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. No interest shall be paid or accrued on any Merger Consideration, cash in lieu of fractional shares or on any unpaid dividends and distributions payable to holders of Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make all payments required pursuant to the preceding sentence as soon as practicable following the valid surrender of Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Stock Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Stock Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Stock Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Surviving Entity that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.3(b), each Stock Certificate and Book Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares, any cash in lieu of fractional shares to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(f) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(e), without any interest thereon.

(c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock; Transfer Books. All Merger Consideration issued upon the surrender of Stock Certificates and Book Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article III shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Common Stock theretofore represented by such Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares, subject, however, to the Surviving Entity’s obligation to pay any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 3.1(e) and cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.1(f) or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by the Company on such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prior to the date of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time. Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock entitled thereto, sufficient cash or immediately available funds to make the payments contemplated in the preceding sentence. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Entity of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares, any cash in lieu of fractional shares to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(f) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(e), without any interest thereon.

(d) Termination of Fund; No Liability. At any time following twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest or other income received with respect thereto) that remains unclaimed by holders of Stock Certificates and Book Entry Shares (other than Appraisal Shares), and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look to the Surviving Entity (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof to exchange such Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares or to pay amounts to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(a) upon due surrender of their Stock Certificates and Book Entry Shares, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall not have been surrendered immediately prior to such date on which any payment pursuant to this Article III would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 4.3(c)), the Merger Consideration and other amounts payable under this Article III in respect of such Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Entity, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Stock Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue to such holder the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Stock Certificate, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(f) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(e), in each case, without any interest thereon, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof and, if required by Parent, the posting by such holder of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Stock Certificates, with such assurances as the Exchange Agent, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of the Merger Consideration, may reasonably require of the holder of such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificates.

(f) Withholding Taxes. Parent and the Surviving Entity shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable to a holder of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement any stock transfer taxes and such amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted under the Code, or any applicable provisions of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.

(g) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest all cash included in the Exchange Fund as reasonably directed by Parent. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Surviving Entity pursuant to Section 3.3(d). The parties hereto agree that, for United States federal income tax reporting purposes, the Surviving Entity shall be the owner of the Exchange Fund. If for any reason (including losses) the Exchange Fund is inadequate to pay the amounts to which holders of shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled under this Article III, Parent shall take all steps necessary to promptly, or to enable or cause the Surviving Entity to promptly, deposit with the Exchange Agent additional Merger Consideration or other cash sufficient to make all payments required under this Agreement, and Parent and the Surviving Entity shall in any event be liable for payment thereof. The Surviving Entity shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Exchange Agent, in connection with the exchange of shares for the Merger Consideration.

(h) Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers of the Surviving Entity will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or Merger Sub, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Entity any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Entity as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

(a) Each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (a “Company Option”) granted under the Company’s 2002 Employee Long-Term Incentive Plan, the 2002 Director & Officer Long-Term Incentive Plan, the BJ Services Company 2000 Incentive Plan, the BJ Services Company 2003 Incentive Plan or the Baker Hughes Incorporated Director Compensation Deferral Plan, each as amended to date (the “Company Stock Plans”), that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as follows as of the Effective Time. Any Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, cease to represent a right to acquire Company Common Stock and shall be converted into a right to acquire Parent Common Stock (an “Adjusted Option”) which shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, acceleration of vesting in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), except that such Adjusted Option shall be with respect to that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Option by (b) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio; provided that the exercise price and/or the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that may be purchased under the Adjusted Option shall be further adjusted to the extent required to remain compliant with, or exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”); and provided further, that in the case of Company Options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, the exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Adjusted Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Stock Award Exchange Ratio” means the sum of the Stock Exchange Ratio and the Cash Portion Exchange Ratio. The “Cash Portion Exchange Ratio” means the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Cash Portion by (ii) the Market Price.

(b) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the restrictions on each restricted share of Company Common Stock (the “Company Restricted Stock”) granted and then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans shall, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, lapse, and each such share of Company Restricted Stock shall be fully vested at such time, and each such share of Company Restricted Stock will be treated at the Effective Time the same as, and have the same rights and be subject to the same conditions as, a share of Company Common Stock not subject to any restrictions.

(c) As of the Effective Time, the restrictions on each restricted stock unit with respect to Company Common Stock (a “Company Restricted Stock Unit”) granted and then outstanding, whether or not vested, under the Company Stock Plans shall, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, be canceled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration based on the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Restricted Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) With respect to any performance unit awards (“Company Performance Units”) that provide for settlement in the medium of cash and that are outstanding as of the Effective Time, such Company Performance Units shall, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, be settled by delivery of an amount of cash as described in the award agreement applicable to such holder thereof as soon as practicable after the Effective Time.

(e) With respect to any Company Performance Units that provide for settlement in the medium of Company Common Stock and that are outstanding as of the Effective Time, such Company Performance Units shall, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, be canceled and converted into the right to receive, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the per share Merger Consideration for each of the units under the Company Performance Units, prorated in the same manner (specified in the applicable award agreements) as if the Company Performance Units had been payable in shares of Company Common Stock.

(f) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute a “change in control” for purposes of the Company Stock Plans and that the vesting of all Company Options, Company Restricted Stock and Company Restricted Stock Units that were granted on or prior to the date of this Agreement and that are outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall accelerate in full at the Effective Time in accordance with their terms.

(g) Notwithstanding Section 3.4(a) through Section 3.4(f), any Company Option, Company Restricted Stock Unit, Company Performance Unit or Company Restricted Stock that is granted after the date hereof shall be treated as described in this Section 3.4(g). Any award of Company Restricted Stock Units granted after the date hereof that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, shall, as of the Effective Time, cease to represent a right to receive Company Common Stock and shall be converted into a right with respect to a number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) that is equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, which right shall (subject to Section 7.3(i)) continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such Company Restricted Stock Units immediately prior to the Effective Time. Any Company Option granted after the date hereof that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, shall be treated in the manner specified in Section 3.4(a), except that there shall be no acceleration of vesting or exercisability of such Company Option solely as a result of the consummation of the corporate transactions contemplated hereby. Any award of Company Performance Units that is granted after the date hereof, that provides for settlement in the medium of Company Common Stock and that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, cease to represent Company Common Stock and shall be converted into a right with respect to a number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) that is equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to

such award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, which right shall (subject to Section 7.3(i)) continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such awards immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that such awards shall only be subject to time-based vesting after the Effective Time. Any award of Company Restricted Stock that is granted after the date hereof that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, be converted into an award of such number of restricted shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) that is equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Restricted Stock subject to such award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (B) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, which award shall (subject to Section 7.3(i)) continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to such award of Company Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(h) The Surviving Entity and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Section 3.4 to any holders of Company Options, Company Restricted Stock, Company Restricted Stock Units or Company Performance Units (collectively, “Company Incentive Awards”) such amounts as it may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Entity, Parent or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holders of such Company Incentive Awards, as applicable, in respect of which the deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Entity, Parent or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

(i) On or prior to December 31, 2014, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to amend the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) to provide that if the Company shall not be the surviving corporation in any merger (or survives only as a subsidiary of another entity) constituting a Change in Control (as defined in the Company’s 2002 Director & Officer Long-Term Incentive Plan and the 2002 Employee Long-Term Incentive Plan) that occurs prior to the last day of an Offering Period (as defined in the ESPP), there shall be no purchases of stock of the Company or of any other entity for such Offering Period and the ESPP option holders’ accumulated payroll deductions for such Offering Period shall be returned to the ESPP option holders without interest.

(j) Schedule 3.4 of the Company Disclosure Letter identifies in reasonable detail the Company Incentive Awards outstanding on the date of this Agreement. Promptly following request by Parent after the date hereof, the Company will deliver to Parent a true and complete list of the Company Incentive Awards on the date of this Agreement, setting forth, as applicable, (i) the number of shares, or the maximum amount of cash subject to Company Performance Units settled in cash, originally subject to such awards on a grant by grant basis, (ii) the number of shares remaining subject to such awards on a grant by grant basis, (iii) the dates on which such awards were granted, (iv) the exercise prices applicable to such awards and (v) the Company Stock Plan under which such awards were granted.

(k) Parent shall take all action necessary or appropriate to have available for issuance under an effective registration statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise, settlement or vesting of the Adjusted Options and the converted Company Performance Units, Company Restricted Stock Units and Company Restricted Stock.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement (and in no event later than December 19, 2014), the Company and Parent shall cause to be prepared and filed with the SEC the Proxy/Prospectus in preliminary form. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall promptly obtain and furnish the information concerning itself and its Affiliates required to be included in the Proxy/Prospectus. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to the Proxy/Prospectus or the Registration Statement. Each party shall promptly notify the other party upon the receipt of any oral or written comments from the SEC or its staff or any request from the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy/Prospectus or the Registration Statement and shall provide the other party with copies of all written correspondence and a summary of all oral

communications between it, on the one hand, and the SEC and its staff, on the other hand, relating to the Proxy/Prospectus or the Registration Statement. Each party shall cooperate and provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any substantive correspondence (including responses to SEC comments), amendments or supplements to the Proxy/Prospectus or the Registration Statement prior to filing with the SEC, and shall provide to the other a copy of all such filings made with the SEC.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement (and, with respect to the initial filing of the Registration Statement, in no event later than December 19, 2014), Parent shall file with the SEC the Registration Statement containing the Proxy/Prospectus so long as Parent has provided to the Company a draft of the Registration Statement containing the Proxy/Prospectus at least ten (10) days prior to any filing thereof and any supplement or amendment at least two (2) days prior to any filing thereof. Parent and the Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Parent shall also take any action (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or filing a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction) required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger and the Company shall furnish all information concerning the Company and the holders of shares of Company capital stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Promptly after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, Parent and the Company shall cause the Proxy/Prospectus to be mailed to their respective stockholders, and if necessary, after the definitive Proxy/Prospectus has been mailed, promptly circulate amended, supplemented or supplemental proxy materials and, if required in connection therewith, re-solicit proxies or written consents, as applicable. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, the officers and directors of Parent or the Company discover any statement which, in light of the circumstances under which it is made, is false or misleading with respect to a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made in the Proxy/Prospectus or Registration Statement not misleading, then such party shall immediately notify the other party of such misstatements or omissions. Parent shall advise the Company and the Company shall advise Parent, as applicable, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement becomes effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the shares of Parent Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for amendment of the Proxy/Prospectus or the Registration Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information.

(c) The Company shall, (i) in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Law, take all actions to establish a record date (which will be as soon as practicable after the date hereof) for, duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Special Meeting”), for the purpose of securing the Required Company Vote, (ii) in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Law, distribute to the Company’s stockholders the Proxy/Prospectus as soon as practicable after the date hereof and (iii) except as provided in Section 7.11, use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from stockholders of the Company proxies

in favor of the Merger and to take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the Required Company Vote. Within forty-five (45) days following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective (which effective date shall be no later than March 31, 2015; provided that the Company shall not be in breach of the obligation to obtain effectiveness of the Registration Statement if it uses its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness of the Registration Statement during such time period), the Company shall convene and hold the Company Special Meeting. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s obligations pursuant to the first two sentences of this Section 7.1(c) shall not be affected by (i) the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Company Alternative Proposal or (ii) the withdrawal or modification by the Board of the Company of the Company Board Recommendation or the Board of the Company’s approval of this Agreement or the Merger. Once the Company Special Meeting has been called and noticed, the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Special Meeting without the consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (other than to the extent necessary (i) for the absence of a quorum, or (ii) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Board of the Company has determined in good faith after consultation with outside counsel is necessary under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by the Company’s stockholders prior to the Company Special Meeting; provided that in the event that the Company Special Meeting is delayed to a date after the Termination Date (as defined in Section 9.2(a)) as a result of either (i) or (ii) above, then Parent may extend the Termination Date to the fifth Business Day after such date). Except to the extent permitted by Section 7.11, (i) the Proxy/Prospectus shall (x) state that the Board of the Company has determined that this Agreement and the Merger are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and (y) include the recommendation of the Board of the Company that this Agreement be adopted by the holders of Company Common Stock (such recommendation described in this clause (y), the “Company Board Recommendation”) and (ii) neither the Board of the Company nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend or modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation.

(d) Parent shall, (i) in accordance with Parent’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Law, take all actions to establish a record date (which will be as soon as practicable after the date hereof) for, duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Parent Special Meeting”) for the purpose of securing the Required Parent Vote, (ii) in accordance with Parent’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Law, distribute to Parent stockholders the Proxy/Prospectus as soon as practicable after the date hereof and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from stockholders of Parent proxies in favor of the Parent Proposal and to take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the Required Parent Vote. Within forty-five (45) days following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective (which effective date shall be no later than March 31, 2015; provided that Parent shall not be in breach of the obligation to obtain effectiveness of the Registration Statement if it uses its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness of the Registration Statement during such time period), Parent shall convene and hold the Parent Special Meeting. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent’s obligations pursuant to the first two sentences of this Section 7.1(d) shall not be affected by (i) the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to Parent of any Parent Alternative Proposal or (ii) the withdrawal or modification by the Board of Parent of the Parent Board

Recommendation or the Board of Parent’s approval of this Agreement or the Merger. Once the Parent Special Meeting has been called and noticed, Parent shall not postpone or adjourn the Parent Special Meeting without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (other than to the extent necessary (A) for the absence of a quorum, or (B) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Board of Parent has determined in good faith, after consultation with Parent’s outside counsel and financial advisors, is necessary under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by Parent’s stockholders prior to the Parent Special Meeting; provided that in the event that the Parent Special Meeting is delayed to a date after the Termination Date as a result of either (A) or (B) above, then the Termination Date shall be extended to the fifth Business Day after such date). Except to the extent permitted by Section 7.12, (i) the Proxy/Prospectus shall (x) state that the Board of Parent has determined that the Parent Proposal is advisable and in the best interests of Parent and (y) include the recommendation of the Board of Parent that the Parent Proposal be adopted by the holders of Parent Common Stock (such recommendation described in this clause (y), the “Parent Board Recommendation”) and (ii) neither the Board of Parent nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend or modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, in a manner adverse to the Company, the Parent Board Recommendation.

(e) The Company and Parent shall each use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Company Special Meeting and the Parent Special Meeting to be held on the same date.

Parent shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger (including shares issuable under any Adjusted Options) to be approved for listing on the NYSE at or prior to the Effective Time, subject to official notice of issuance.

(a) For a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing, Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, provide to each employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary who is employed immediately prior to the Closing and who remains in the employ of Parent, the Company or any of its or their Subsidiaries after the Closing (each such individual, a “Continuing Employee”) (i) a level of base salary or hourly wages that is no less favorable than the level of base salary or hourly wages provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) cash and equity-based incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable than the cash and equity-based incentive compensation opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (iii) with respect to employee benefits, (A) treat similarly situated Continuing Employees on a substantially equivalent basis, taking into account all relevant factors, including but not limited to duties, geographic location, tenure, qualifications and abilities, as other employees of Parent or its Subsidiaries and (B) not discriminate between employee benefits provided to Continuing Employees and employee benefits provided to other employees of Parent or its Subsidiaries.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Entity shall honor all Company Benefit Plans and compensation arrangements and agreements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time and shall cause any employee benefit plans and compensation arrangements established, maintained or contributed to by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) that cover any of the Continuing Employees following the Closing (collectively, the “Parent Plans”) to (i) recognize the pre-Closing service of participating Continuing Employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of vesting and eligibility to participate, except to the extent such service credit would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period, (ii) recognize the pre-Closing service of participating Continuing Employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of benefit accrual and amounts of benefits and contributions (other than for benefit accrual purposes under a defined benefit pension plan, an arrangement providing statutory required benefits or, except as required by a collective bargaining agreement as in effect on the date hereof or by applicable Law, an arrangement that, under applicable Law or collective bargaining agreement, is exclusively subject to collective negotiation or bargaining), except to the extent such service credit would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period, (iii) waive any pre-existing condition limitations for participating Continuing Employees and (iv) provide credit to each participating Continuing Employee under the applicable Parent Plan for amounts paid by such Continuing Employee prior to the Closing during the year in which the Closing occurs under any analogous Company Benefit Plan during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms of such Parent Plan; provided that nothing herein shall limit the right of the Company, Parent or the Surviving Entity to amend or terminate such plans, arrangements and agreements in accordance with their terms.

(c) Parent shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to credit under any applicable Parent Plans each Continuing Employee with all vacation and personal holiday time that such Continuing Employee has accrued but has not used as of the Closing, provided that any such credited accruals may be used only during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs.

(d) Without limiting the generality of Section 7.3(b), the Company acknowledges and agrees that all provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to the Continuing Employees are included for the sole benefit of the Company, Parent and the Surviving Entity, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including, without limitation, any employees, former employees, any participant in any Company Benefit Plan or other benefit plan or arrangement, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (ii) to continued employment with the Company, Parent, the Surviving Entity, or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(e) Nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement, or shall limit the right of Parent, the Surviving Entity, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any such Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement following the Closing in accordance with its terms. In the event that (i) a party other than the Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries makes a claim or takes other action to enforce any provision in this Agreement as an amendment to any Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement, and (ii) such

provision is deemed in any judicial proceeding to be an amendment to such Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement even though not explicitly designated as such in this Agreement then such provision, to the extent covered by such deemed amendment, shall lapse retroactively and shall have no amendatory effect.

(f) Effective as of a date no later than the day immediately prior to the Effective Time, unless otherwise directed in writing by Parent, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to (i) adopt amendments to all Section 401(k) plans maintained or contributed to by the Company or a Company Subsidiary (collectively, the “Company 401(k) Plan”) required to be adopted in accordance with the Code to reflect qualification requirements that apply as of the date of termination of the Company 401(k) Plan, (ii) take all necessary action to effect the termination of the Company 401(k) Plan and shall provide Parent with a copy of the applicable board of directors resolutions and termination agreements evidencing such terminations and (iii) ensure that each Continuing Employee is fully vested in his or her account balance under the Company 401(k) Plan. Following the Effective Time, to the extent provided under the terms of the Company 401(k) Plan at the time of termination, Parent shall permit participants in the Company 401(k) Plan who are employed by Parent or its Subsidiaries to (i) make in-service withdrawals from the Company 401(k) Plan, and (ii) continue to receive and repay any loans from the Company 401(k) Plan. Following the Effective Time, Parent shall permit each participant in the Company 401(k) Plan who terminates employment with the Surviving Entity or its Subsidiaries the right to receive a distribution of such participant’s interest under the Company 401(k) Plan, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Company 401(k) Plan. As soon as practicable following Internal Revenue Service approval of the termination of the Company 401(k) Plan, Parent or the Surviving Entity shall, with respect to Continuing Employees who remain actively employed with Parent or the Surviving Entity (i) provide an election to roll over their interest under the Company 401(k) Plan, including plan loans, to a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by Parent or an affiliate of Parent (the “Parent DC Plan”), (ii) cause the trustee of the Company 401(k) Plan to roll over the interest which the participant elects to roll over to the Parent DC Plan, and (iii) cause the Parent DC Plan to accept any such rollovers. The Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in the Parent DC Plan immediately following the Effective Time.

(g) Parent shall not (and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries not to) communicate or otherwise meet with any of the employees of the Company and Company Subsidiaries to discuss the terms and conditions of employment or employee benefits or compensation matters without reasonable prior notice to the Company or its designee. Such communications and/or meetings shall be effectuated solely by human resources representatives of Parent in reasonable cooperation with the Company, and shall be limited to topics directly related to the terms and conditions of employment with Parent or a Parent Subsidiary and employee benefits or compensation matters following the Effective Time.

(h) Without limiting Section 7.3(g), Parent and the Company agree that for the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Termination Date, each of Parent and the Company will not, and will ensure that its Affiliates (and any person acting on behalf of or in concert with it or any of its Affiliates) will not, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire any officer, director, or employee of the other party or any of the other party’s

Subsidiaries. The restrictions of this Section 7.3(h) shall not prohibit either party, however, from conducting any general solicitations for employment, such as any newspaper or Internet help wanted advertisement, directly or through any agent (including placement and recruiting agencies) that is not directed at such persons.

(i) If, during the twelve (12) month period beginning on the Closing Date, the employment of any Continuing Employee is terminated as a result of an Involuntary Termination, (i) Parent shall pay (or shall cause its Affiliate to pay) such Continuing Employee a lump sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to the greater of (A) (x) the cash severance payment that would be payable to such Continuing Employee under the applicable severance plan, program, agreement or arrangement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Company Severance Arrangement”), if any, that covers such Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, under the terms of such Company Severance Arrangement as in effect as of immediately prior to the Closing Date (taking into account service rendered by such Continuing Employee for Parent and Parent’s Affiliates after the Effective Time and disregarding any ability of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate or adversely amend such Company Severance Arrangement) or (y) if greater, the amount determined in accordance with the formula set forth in Schedule 7.3(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter or (B) the cash severance payable to such Continuing Employee under any severance program or arrangement of Parent or its Affiliate and (ii) the vesting of all then outstanding equity awards granted by Parent or a Parent Subsidiary, and all Company Incentive Awards described in Section 3.4(g), held by such Continuing Employee shall immediately accelerate in full. Such cash severance amount will be paid on the date that is sixty (60) days following such Continuing Employee’s Separation From Service; provided that, if such Continuing Employee is a Specified Employee, such payment shall be made on the date that is six (6) months following such Continuing Employee’s Separation From Service, except to the extent that such payment may be made prior to such date without incurring additional taxes or interest under Section 409A.

For purposes of this Section 7.3(i), the terms “Separation From Service” and “Specified Employee” have the meanings ascribed to those terms in Section 409A; the term “Involuntary Termination” shall mean the termination of a Continuing Employee’s employment with Parent or its Affiliate (without a contemporaneous transfer of employment to Parent or its Affiliate) that occurs during the twelve (12) month period following the Effective Time and that results from either such Continuing Employee’s termination of employment by Parent or its Affiliate other than for Cause (as defined herein) or a resignation by such Continuing Employee for Good Reason (as defined herein).

For purposes of this Section 7.3(i), the term “Cause” with respect to a Continuing Employee has the meaning assigned to it (or to a term of like import) in the applicable Company Severance Arrangement as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, or if such applicable Company Severance Arrangement that covered such Continuing Employee does not define “Cause” (or if such Continuing Employee is not covered by a Company Severance Arrangement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) then “Cause” means (i) the willful and continued failure by the Continuing Employee to substantially perform the Continuing Employee’s duties with Parent or its Affiliate (other than any such failure resulting from the Continuing Employee’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness) or (ii) the willful engaging by the Continuing Employee in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to Parent or its Affiliate, monetarily or otherwise.

For purposes of this Section 7.3(i), the term “Good Reason” with respect to a Continuing Employee has the meaning assigned to it (or to a term of like import) in the applicable Company Severance Arrangement as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, or if such applicable Company Severance Arrangement that covered such Continuing Employee does not define “Good Reason” (or if such Continuing Employee is not covered by a Company Severance Arrangement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) then “Good Reason” means the occurrence (without the Continuing Employee’s express written consent) of any one of the following acts by Parent or its Affiliate, or failures by Parent or its Affiliate to act, unless, in the case of any act or failure to act described in paragraph (a) below, such act or failure to act is corrected prior to the effective date of the Continuing Employee’s termination for Good Reason:

(a) a reduction by Parent or its Affiliate in the Continuing Employee’s annual base compensation as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time, except for across-the-board salary reductions similarly affecting all individuals having a similar level of authority and responsibility with Parent or its Affiliate (as applicable); or

(b) the relocation of the Continuing Employee’s principal place of employment to a location outside of a 30-mile radius from the Continuing Employee’s principal place of employment immediately prior to the Effective Time or Parent’s or its Affiliate’s (including the Company’s or its Subsidiary’s) requiring the Continuing Employee to be based anywhere other than such principal place of employment (or permitted relocation thereof) except for required travel on Parent’s or its Affiliate’s business to an extent substantially consistent with the Continuing Employee’s business travel obligations immediately prior to the Effective Time.

The Continuing Employee’s continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of any rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder.

No fewer than 18 Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall prepare and cause to be delivered to Parent a schedule (a) identifying each individual that, for purposes of Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, (i) is an officer or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or (ii) will, at the Effective Time be an officer or director of the Surviving Entity and who owns Company Common Stock and (b) the number of shares of Company Common Stock owned by each such individual. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, such efforts to include all steps required to be taken in accordance with the No-Action Letter dated January 12, 1999, issued by the SEC to Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP.

(a) This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g).

(b) Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and to obtain the Tax opinions set forth in Sections 8.2(c) and 8.3(c).

(c) Officers of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall execute and deliver to Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, tax counsel for the Company, and Baker Botts L.L.P., tax counsel for Parent, certificates substantially in the form agreed to by the parties and such firms at such time or times as may reasonably be requested by such firms, in connection with such tax counsel’s respective delivery of opinions pursuant to Sections 8.2(c) and 8.3(c) hereof. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts not to take or cause to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue (or fail to take or cause not to be taken any action which would cause to be untrue) any of the certifications and representations included in the certificates described in this Section 7.5.

(d) The Company and Parent shall cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing of all Tax Returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any real property transfer or gains, sales, use, transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp taxes, and transfer, recording, registration and other fees and similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the Merger that are required or permitted to be filed on or before the Effective Time. The Surviving Entity shall pay, without deduction from any amount payable to holders of Company Common Stock and without reimbursement from the other party, any such Taxes or fees imposed on it by any Governmental Entity, which becomes payable in connection with the Merger.

(e) Neither Parent nor Company will take (or fail to take) any action which action (or failure to act) would reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

(f) Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare all Tax Returns for any Tax period which are required to be filed on or before the Closing Date (taking extensions into account) using accounting methods, principles and positions consistent with those used for prior Tax periods, unless a change is required by applicable Law or regulation. All such Tax Returns shall be timely filed and all related Taxes paid on or before the Closing Date.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including the limitations set forth in Section 7.6(d), each of the parties hereto shall, and the Company shall cause each of the Company Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts (subject to, and in

accordance with, applicable Law) to take promptly, or to cause to be taken, all actions, and to do promptly, or to cause to be done, and to assist and to cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, authorizations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, clearances, consents and approvals from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entity, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iii) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Subject to Section 7.6(c) and the other terms and conditions herein provided and without limiting the foregoing, the Company and Parent shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to):

(i) make their respective required filings (and filings considered by Parent to be advisable after consulting with, and considering in good faith the views of, the Company) under the HSR Act, the EC Merger Regulation and any other Regulatory Laws (and Parent shall be responsible for all filing fees incident thereto), which filings shall be made as promptly as Parent deems advisable, and thereafter shall promptly make any other required submissions under the HSR Act or other such laws; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond to and comply promptly with and expeditiously achieve substantial compliance with any request for information regarding the Merger or any such filings for any Governmental Entity charged with enforcing, applying, administering, or investigating any Regulatory Law;

(ii) use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with one another in (A) determining which filings are required (or considered by Parent to be advisable after consulting with, and considering in good faith the views of, the Company) to be made prior to the Effective Time with, and which consents, approvals, permits or authorizations are required to be obtained prior to the Effective Time from, Governmental Entities in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and (B) timely making all such filings;

(iii) promptly notify each other of any communication concerning this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement to that party from any Governmental Entity, it being understood that correspondence, filings and communications received from any Governmental Entity shall be immediately provided to the other party upon receipt, subject in appropriate cases to appropriate confidentiality agreements to limit disclosure to outside lawyers and consultants;

(iv) not participate or agree to participate in any meeting or substantive discussion (including, without limitation, any discussion relating to the antitrust merits, any potential remedies, commitments or undertakings, the timing of any waivers, consents, approvals, permits, orders or authorizations, and any agreement regarding the timing of consummation of the Merger) with any Governmental Entity relating to any filings or investigation concerning this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless it consults with the other party and its representatives in advance and invites the other party’s representatives to attend, subject in appropriate cases to appropriate confidentiality agreements to limit disclosure to outside lawyers and consultants, unless the Governmental Entity prohibits such attendance;

(v) promptly furnish the other party, subject in appropriate cases to appropriate confidentiality agreements to limit disclosure to outside lawyers and consultants, with draft copies prior to submission to a Governmental Entity, with reasonable time and opportunity to comment and consult, of all correspondence, filings and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) that they, their Affiliates or their respective representatives intend to submit to any Governmental Entity;

(vi) promptly furnish the other party, subject in appropriate cases to appropriate confidentiality agreements to limit disclosure to outside lawyers and consultants, with such necessary information and reasonable assistance as such other party and its Affiliates may reasonably request in connection with their preparation of necessary filings, registrations or submissions of information to any Governmental Entity, including, without limitation, any filings necessary or appropriate under the provisions of Regulatory Laws; and

(vii) deliver to the other party’s outside counsel complete copies of all documents furnished to any Governmental Entity as part of any filing, subject to appropriate confidentiality agreements.

(c) Parent shall be entitled to direct the antitrust defense of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any investigation or litigation by, or negotiations with, any Governmental Entity or other person relating to the Merger or regulatory filings under applicable Regulatory Law, subject to the provisions of Section 7.6(a), Section 7.6(b), Section 7.6(d) and Section 7.6(e) and provided that Parent shall consult with, and consider in good faith the views of, the Company throughout the antitrust defense of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including by providing the Company with reasonable opportunity to evaluate, as promptly as practicable, steps to be taken in pursuit of such defense. The Company shall not make any offer, acceptance or counter-offer to or otherwise engage in negotiations or discussions with any Governmental Entity with respect to any proposed settlement, consent decree, commitment or remedy, or, in the event of litigation, discovery, admissibility of evidence, timing or scheduling, except as specifically requested by or agreed with Parent. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide full and effective support of Parent in all material respects in all such investigations, litigation, negotiations and discussions to the extent requested by Parent.

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub shall take all such action (including any Antitrust Action) as may be necessary to resolve such objections, if any, that the United States Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice, the European Commission, state antitrust enforcement authorities or competition authorities of any other nation or other jurisdiction, or any other Person, may assert under Regulatory Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and to avoid or eliminate, and minimize the impact of, each and every impediment under Regulatory Laws that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Termination Date); provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement requires Parent, Merger Sub or the Company to take, or cause to be taken, any Antitrust Action with respect to any of the assets, businesses or product lines of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Entity), or any combination thereof, if such action would exceed the Detriment Limit. For purposes of this Agreement, “Antitrust Action” means any action with respect to assets, businesses or product lines, including a request that they be (x) divested or held separate or (y) subject to conduct remedies, limitations or other actions, and the “Detriment Limit” would be exceeded if the assets, businesses or product lines subject to Antitrust Action in order to obtain actions or nonactions, waivers, authorizations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, clearances, consents and approvals from Governmental Entities under Regulatory Laws account for more than $7.5 billion of revenue for the twelve (12) months ended December 31, 2013. If requested by Parent, the Company will agree to and take any action contemplated by this Section 7.6(d), provided that the consummation of any divestiture or the effectiveness of any other remedy is conditioned on the consummation of the Merger. The parties hereto agree that the calculation of revenue shall be measured by reference to the lowest such revenue of Parent or the Company for each such overlapping asset, business or product line subject to Antitrust Action, regardless of which asset, business or product line Parent actually selects for such Antitrust Action. The foregoing agreement in this section is made solely to facilitate the closing of the Merger and does not constitute a representation or admission that the Merger, if consummated without any modification, would violate any Regulatory Laws or that agreeing to any divestitures, hold separate conditions or other restrictions permitted herein or suggested by any person or authority acting under any Regulatory Law would not be harmful to the parties hereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but subject to the next sentence, Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to oppose or refuse to consent to, through litigation or otherwise, any request, attempt or demand by any Governmental Entity or other person for any divestiture, hold separate condition or any other restriction with respect to any assets, businesses or product lines of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries and shall have the obligation to defend any litigation instituted by a Governmental Entity or other person with respect to the legality of the Merger under applicable Regulatory Laws. In the event Parent opposes or refuses to consent to, through litigation or otherwise, including any appeals, any request, attempt or demand by any Governmental Entity or other person as provided in the preceding sentence, and (i) such proceedings conclude prior to the Termination Date with a decree, injunction or order restricting or prohibiting the Merger or (ii) no decree, order or injunction has been issued in such proceedings prior to the Termination Date, then Parent shall take such actions (including Antitrust Actions) in a timely manner, as are necessary to achieve the clearance by or approval of the Governmental Entity or other person

and satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 8.1(b) [Antitrust/Competition] and Section 8.1(c) [Injunctions or Restraints] (with respect to any Regulatory Law) prior to the Termination Date, provided that Parent shall not be required to take any action that would exceed the Detriment Limit.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, “Regulatory Laws” means the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the HSR Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, the EC Merger Regulation, and all other federal, state or foreign statutes, rules, regulations, orders, decrees, administrative and judicial doctrines and other Applicable Laws, including without limitation any antitrust, competition or trade regulation laws, that are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or lessening competition through merger or acquisition.

(g) The parties will cooperate and use their respective reasonable efforts to identify and comply with any so called “transaction triggered” or “responsible property transfer” requirements under Environmental Laws that result from the Merger.

The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against the Company or its directors or officers relating to the Merger or any other transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that no such settlement shall be agreed to without Parent’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld).

The Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall consult with each other prior to issuing, and provide each other with the opportunity to review and comment upon, any public announcement, statement or other disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such public announcement or statement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by Law or any listing agreement with a national securities exchange or trading market; provided that each of the Company and Parent may make any public statements in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or analyst or investor conference calls, so long as such statements are not inconsistent with previous statements made jointly by the Company and Parent. In addition, the Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable and except for any public disclosure under Section 7.11 or Section 7.12, consult with Parent regarding the form and content of any public disclosure of any material developments or matters involving the Company, including earnings releases, reasonably in advance of publication or release. The Company and Parent agree to issue a joint press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

The Company agrees to give prompt notice to Parent and Merger Sub, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent or promptly remedy, the occurrence or failure to occur, or the impending or threatened occurrence or failure to occur, of any event which occurrence or failure to occur would be reasonably likely to cause the failure of any of the

conditions set forth in Section 8.2; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice. Each of Parent and Merger Sub agrees to give prompt notice to the Company, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent or promptly remedy, the occurrence or failure to occur, or the impending or threatened occurrence or failure to occur, of any event which occurrence or failure to occur would be reasonably likely to cause the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice.

(a) From the date hereof until the Effective Time and subject to the requirements of applicable Laws, the Company and Parent shall each (i) give to the other party, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors, potential Financing Sources and other consultants and authorized representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the offices, properties, books and records of such party and its Subsidiaries, (ii) furnish to the other party, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors, potential Financing Sources, and other consultants and authorized representatives such financial and operating data and other information as such Persons may reasonably request, and (iii) instruct its and its Subsidiaries’ employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives to cooperate reasonably with the other party in its investigation of such party and such party’s Subsidiaries (including, but not limited to, in the case of clauses (i)-(iii), for the purpose of ensuring that the business conducted by the Company complies with, and does not raise material liability risks under, applicable Laws, including, without limitation, Anti-Corruption Laws), except that nothing herein shall require any party to disclose any information that would cause a risk of a loss of privilege to such party or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the above, no party nor its representatives shall have the right to conduct environmental sampling on any of the properties owned or operated by the other party or its Subsidiaries. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 7.10(a) shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of any party or its Subsidiaries. The cooperation provisions of this paragraph extend fully to all overseas business, joint venture, and subsidiary locations. In addition, each of the Company and Parent agree to use their reasonable best efforts to facilitate meetings with joint venture partners, agents, representatives, consultants, customs brokers, and other third parties that the other party or its counsel determine may be relevant to due diligence. Each of Parent and the Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion to have a representative present for investigations, interviews and visits.

(b) Prior to the mailing of the Proxy/Prospectus to the Company’s stockholders and within one week of the Closing, Parent shall provide the Company a reasonable opportunity to meet with the executive officers of the Parent to conduct reasonable due diligence to confirm whether any statement in such Proxy/Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which it was made, is not false or misleading with respect to a material fact or does not omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made in the Proxy/Prospectus not misleading.

(c) Each of Parent and the Company shall, until the earlier of the Effective Time and the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the termination of this Agreement, hold, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by Law, all confidential documents and information concerning the other party furnished or otherwise made available to it or its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Disclosure Letter and Parent Disclosure Letter, as applicable), except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (i) previously known on a nonconfidential basis by such party, (ii) in the public domain through no fault of such party or (iii) later lawfully acquired by such party from sources other than the other party; provided that each of Parent and the Company may disclose such information to its Representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so long as such party informs such Persons of the confidential nature of such information and directs them to treat it confidentially. Each of Parent and the Company shall satisfy its obligation to hold any such information in confidence if it exercises the same care with respect to such information as it would take to preserve the confidentiality of its own similar information. If this Agreement is terminated, each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, destroy or deliver to the other party, upon request, all documents and other materials, and all copies thereof, that it or its Affiliates obtained, or that were obtained on their behalf, from the other party in connection with this Agreement and that are subject to such confidence. “Law” for purposes of this Section 7.10(c) shall include the rules of any national securities exchange.

(d) Nothing in this Section 7.10 shall require either party to permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable judgment of such party would (i) violate any of its respective obligations with respect to confidentiality or (ii) result in a violation of applicable Law or loss of privilege. Each party shall use reasonable efforts to make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

(e) No investigation by and of the parties or their respective Representatives made pursuant to this Section 7.10 shall modify, nullify, amend or otherwise affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the other set forth in this Agreement.

(a) Subject to Section 7.11(b), the Company agrees that from and after the date of this Agreement, it shall (i) immediately cease and terminate, and cause to be ceased and terminated, all of its and its Representatives’ discussions and negotiations with any other Person (other than Parent or its Affiliates) regarding any Company Alternative Proposal (as hereinafter defined), (ii) promptly request, and cause to be requested that, each Person that has received confidential information in connection with a possible Company Alternative Proposal within the last twelve (12) months return to the Company or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company and Company Subsidiaries and (iii) not grant any waiver or release under or knowingly fail to enforce any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement entered into or amended during the twelve (12) months prior to the date hereof in respect of a proposed Company Alternative Proposal (such agreement, a “Company Standstill Agreement”) unless the Board of the Company concludes in good faith that a failure to take any

action described in this clause (iii) would reasonably likely be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. From and after the date of this Agreement, subject to Section 7.11(b) and Section 9.3(b), the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, nor shall the Company authorize or permit any Company Subsidiary or any of its or their respective directors, officers, members, employees, representatives, agents, attorneys, consultants, contractors, accountants, financial advisors and other advisors (a “Representative”) to, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or facilitate (including by way of furnishing information), or engage in discussions or negotiations regarding, any inquiry, proposal or offer, or the making, submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer (including any inquiry, proposal or offer to its stockholders) which constitutes or would be reasonably expected to lead to a Company Alternative Proposal, (ii) except for confidentiality agreements entered into pursuant to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 7.11(b) or a definitive agreement entered into or to be entered into concurrently with a termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3(b), approve or enter into a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or other contract with any Person, other than Parent and Merger Sub, for, constituting or otherwise relating to a Company Alternative Proposal, (iii) provide or cause to be provided any information or data relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary in connection with, or in response to, any Company Alternative Proposal by any Person, or (iv) terminate, amend, waive or permit the waiver of any voting restriction contained in the organizational or governing documents of the Company, or take any action contemplated by paragraph (a)(1) of Section 203 of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that, in the event any officer, director or financial advisor of the Company takes any action that if taken by the Company would be a breach of this Section 7.11, the taking of such action by such officer, director or financial advisor shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 7.11 by the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.11(a), the Company and its Representatives shall be entitled, prior to obtaining the Required Company Vote, to furnish information regarding the Company and any Company Subsidiary to, or engage in discussions or negotiations with, any Person in response to an unsolicited, bona fide, written third party proposal with respect to a Company Alternative Proposal that is submitted to the Company by such Person (for so long as such Company Alternative Proposal has not been withdrawn) if (i) none of the Company, the Representatives of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or the Representatives of the Company Subsidiaries shall have breached the provisions set forth in this Section 7.11 in any material respect with respect to such Person, and (ii) the Board of the Company shall have determined, in its good faith judgment, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that the proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Company Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined); provided that the Company may not enter into negotiations or discussions or supply any information in connection with a Company Alternative Proposal without entering into a confidentiality agreement, which confidentiality agreement may allow such third party to make Alternative Proposals to the Company in connection with the negotiations and discussions permitted by this Section 7.11(b). Parent shall be entitled to receive an executed copy of any such confidentiality agreement and notification of the identity of such Person promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) after the Company’s entering into such discussions or negotiations or furnishing information to the Person making such Company Alternative Proposal or its Representatives. The Company shall promptly provide or make available to Parent any non-

public information concerning the Company and any Company Subsidiary that is provided to the Person making such Company Alternative Proposal or its Representatives which was not previously provided or made available to Parent. The Company agrees that it shall notify Parent promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt) if any inquiry, contact or proposal related to a Company Alternative Proposal is received by, any such information is requested from, or any such discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, any of its Representatives, or any Representatives of the Company Subsidiaries, and thereafter shall keep Parent informed in writing, on a reasonably current basis, of all material developments regarding the status of any such inquiry, contact or proposal and the status of any such negotiations or discussions. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Board of the Company from complying with Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act with respect to a Company Alternative Proposal or from making any similar disclosure; provided, however, that any disclosure by the Company that relates to a Company Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be a Company Change in Recommendation unless the Board of the Company reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such disclosure.

(c) Neither the Board of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw (or qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent), or propose to withdraw (or qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Board of the Company or any such committee thereof of this Agreement, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (B) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve any Company Alternative Proposal, (C) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy/Prospectus or (D) resolve, propose or agree to do any of the foregoing (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Company Change in Recommendation”) or (ii) (A) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve, or allow the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement constituting or related to, or that is intended to or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Company Alternative Proposal or that would require the Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 7.11(b)) (a “Company Acquisition Agreement”) or (B) resolve, agree or propose to do any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, prior to obtaining the Required Company Vote, the Board of the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) that the failure to do so would reasonably likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law, it may (A) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b) and cause the Company to enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Company Superior Proposal or (B) make a Company Change in Recommendation in connection with a Company Superior Proposal, but in the case of (1) Section 7.11(c)(ii)(A), only if such Company Superior Proposal has not resulted from a breach of its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.11, and (2) Section 7.11(c)(ii)(A) or (B) only if (x) the Company provides written notice to Parent (a “Company Notice of Change in Recommendation”) advising Parent that the Board of the Company intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor, including the terms and conditions of such Company Superior Proposal, the identity of the Person making the Company Superior

Proposal and copies of all relevant documents relating to such Company Superior Proposal that the Company has received from the Person or its representatives that made such proposal and that are the basis of the proposed action by the Board of the Company, including a copy of the proposed Company Acquisition Agreement (if any) (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Company Superior Proposal shall require a new Company Notice of Change in Recommendation and compliance with the requirements of this Section 7.11(c)); (y) during a period of four (4) Business Days following Parent’s receipt of a Company Notice of Change in Recommendation (or, in the event of a new Company Notice of Change in Recommendation as a result of any such amendment, an extension of two (2) additional Business Days), if requested by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall have negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith to make such revisions or adjustments proposed by Parent to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable the Company to proceed with its recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger and not to make such Company Change in Recommendation; and (z) if applicable, at the end of such applicable 4- or 2-Business Day period, the Board of the Company, after considering in good faith any such revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that Parent, prior to the expiration of such applicable period, shall have offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Company, continues to determine in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) that the Company Alternative Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal and that failure to make such Company Change in Recommendation would reasonably likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law.

(d) Other than in connection with a Company Alternative Proposal, the Company may, at any time prior to, but not after, obtaining the Required Company Vote, make a Company Change in Recommendation in response to a Company Intervening Event (a “Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation”) if the failure to take such action would likely be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law, provided, that: (A) Parent shall have received written notice from the Company (a “Company Notice of Intervening Event Change in Recommendation”) of the Company’s intention to make a Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation at least four (4) Business Days prior to the taking of such action by the Company, which notice shall specify the applicable Company Intervening Event in reasonable detail, (B) during such period and prior to making a Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation, if requested by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any revisions or adjustments proposed by Parent to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable the Company to proceed with its recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger and not make such Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation and (C) the Company may make a Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation only if the Board of the Company, after considering in good faith any revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that Parent shall have, prior to the expiration of the 4-Business Day period, offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Company, continues to determine in good faith that failure to make a Company Intervening Event Change in Recommendation would likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. A “Company Intervening Event” shall mean any fact, circumstance, occurrence, event, development, change or condition or combination thereof

that (i) was not known to the Board of the Company as of the date of this Agreement (or if known, the consequences or magnitude of which were not known or reasonably foreseeable) and (ii) does not relate to (A) any Company Alternative Proposal or (B) clearance of the Merger under the HSR Act, the EC Merger Regulation or any other Regulatory Law, including any action in connection therewith taken pursuant to or required to be taken pursuant to Section 7.6; provided, however, that (1) any change in the price or trading volume of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Company Intervening Event has occurred (it being acknowledged, however, that any underlying cause thereof may be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Company Intervening Event has occurred); (2) in no event shall any fact, circumstance, occurrence, event, development, change or condition or combination thereof that has had or would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the business or financial condition of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries constitute a Company Intervening Event unless such event, fact, circumstance or development constitutes a Parent Material Adverse Effect; and (3) the Company or Parent meeting, failing to meet or exceeding projections shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Company Intervening Event has occurred (it being acknowledged, however, that any underlying cause thereof may be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Company Intervening Event has occurred).

(i) “Company Alternative Proposal” shall mean any bona fide proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons other than Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries or any group of which Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries is a member (A) for a merger, reorganization, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or any similar transaction or series of transactions involving the Company (or any Company Subsidiary or Subsidiaries whose business constitutes 15% or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (B) for the issuance by the Company of 15% or more of its equity securities or (C) to acquire in any manner, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the equity securities or consolidated total assets of the Company or 15% or more of the aggregate equity securities of the Company Subsidiaries, in each case other than the Merger.

(ii) “Company Superior Proposal” shall mean any Company Alternative Proposal (A) which provides that 100% of the Company’s outstanding equity securities shall be converted into, exchanged for or otherwise canceled in exchange for the right to receive consideration that does not constitute 50% or more of the outstanding equity securities of the acquiring or surviving entity or its ultimate parent or (B) providing for the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, in either case on terms which the Board of the Company determines in its good faith judgment, after consultation with the Company’s outside counsel and financial advisors, would, if consummated, result in a transaction more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of Company Common Stock than the Merger (or any bona fide written offer or proposal made by Parent in response to such Company Alternative Proposal or

otherwise), taking into account all the terms and conditions of such Alternative Proposal and this Agreement (including any conditions to and expected timing of consummation thereof, and all legal, financial and regulatory aspects of such Company Alternative Proposal and this Agreement).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.11 shall not apply to any action taken by or on behalf of the Company in connection with its obligations under Section 7.6(d).

(a) Subject to Section 7.12(b), Parent agrees that from and after the date of this Agreement, it shall (i) immediately cease and terminate, and cause to be ceased and terminated, all of its and its Representatives’ discussions and negotiations with any other Person (other than the Company or its Affiliates) regarding any Parent Alternative Proposal (as hereinafter defined), (ii) promptly request, and cause to be requested that, each Person that has received confidential information in connection with a possible Parent Alternative Proposal within the last twelve (12) months return to Parent or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of Parent and its Subsidiaries and (iii) not grant any waiver or release under or knowingly fail to enforce any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement entered into or amended during the twelve (12) months prior to the date hereof in respect of a proposed Parent Alternative Proposal (such agreement, a “Parent Standstill Agreement”) the Parent Board concludes in good faith that a failure to take any action described in this clause (iii) would reasonably likely be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary obligations to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law. From and after the date of this Agreement, subject to Section 7.12(b) and Section 9.4(b), Parent shall not, directly or indirectly, nor shall Parent authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Representatives to, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or facilitate (including by way of furnishing information), or engage in discussions or negotiations regarding, any inquiry, proposal or offer, or the making, submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer (including any inquiry, proposal or offer to its stockholders) which constitutes or would be reasonably expected to lead to a Parent Alternative Proposal, (ii) except for confidentiality agreements entered into pursuant to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 7.12(b) or a definitive agreement entered into or to be entered into concurrently with a termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.4(b), approve or enter into a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or other contract with any Person, other than the Company, for, constituting or otherwise relating to a Parent Alternative Proposal, (iii) provide or cause to be provided any information or data relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with, or in response to, any Parent Alternative Proposal by any Person, or (iv) terminate, amend, waive or permit the waiver of any voting restriction contained in the organizational or governing documents of Parent, or take any action contemplated by paragraph (a)(1) of Section 203 of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent acknowledges and agrees that, in the event any officer, director or financial advisor of Parent takes any action that if taken by Parent would be a breach of this Section 7.12, the taking of such action by such officer, director or financial advisor shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 7.12 by Parent.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.12(a), Parent and its Representatives shall be entitled, prior to obtaining the Required Parent Vote, to furnish information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries to, or engage in discussions or negotiations with, any Person in response to an unsolicited, bona fide, written third party proposal with respect to a Parent Alternative Proposal that is submitted to Parent by such Person (for so long as such Parent Alternative Proposal has not been withdrawn) if (i) none of Parent, the Representatives of Parent, the Subsidiaries of Parent or the Representatives of Subsidiaries of the Parent shall have breached the provisions set forth in this Section 7.12 in any material respect with respect to such Person, and (ii) the Board of Parent shall have determined, in its good faith judgment, after consultation with Parent’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Parent Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined); provided that Parent may not enter into negotiations or discussions or supply any information in connection with a Parent Alternative Proposal without entering into a confidentiality agreement, which confidentiality agreement may allow such third party to make Alternative Proposals to Parent in connection with the negotiations and discussions permitted by this Section 7.12(b). The Company shall be entitled to receive an executed copy of any such confidentiality agreement and notification of the identity of such Person promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) after Parent’s entering into such discussions or negotiations or furnishing information to the Person making such Parent Alternative Proposal or its Representatives. Parent shall promptly provide or make available to the Company any non-public information concerning Parent and any Subsidiary of Parent that is provided to the Person making such Parent Alternative Proposal or its Representatives which was not previously provided or made available to the Company. Parent agrees that it shall notify Parent promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt) if any inquiry, contact or proposal related to a Parent Alternative Proposal is received by, any such information is requested from, or any such discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, Parent, the Subsidiaries of Parent, any of its Representatives, or any Representatives of the Subsidiaries of Parent, and thereafter shall keep the Company informed in writing, on a reasonably current basis, of all material developments regarding the status of any such inquiry, contact or proposal and the status of any such negotiations or discussions. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Board of Parent from complying with Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act with respect to a Parent Alternative Proposal or from making any similar disclosure; provided, however, that any such disclosure that relates to a Parent Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be a Parent Change in Recommendation unless the Board of Parent reaffirms the Parent Board Recommendation in such disclosure.

(c) Neither the Board of Parent nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw (or qualify or modify in a manner adverse to the Company), or propose to withdraw (or qualify or modify in a manner adverse to the Company), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Board of Parent or any such committee thereof of this Agreement, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (B) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve any Parent Alternative Proposal, (C) fail to include the Parent Board Recommendation in the Proxy/Prospectus or (D) resolve, propose or agree to do any of the foregoing (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Parent Change in Recommendation”) or (ii) (A) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve, or allow Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of

understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement constituting or related to, or that is intended to or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Parent Alternative Proposal or that would require the Parent to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 7.12(b)) (a “Parent Acquisition Agreement”) or (B) resolve, agree or propose to do any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, prior to obtaining the Required Parent Vote, the Board of Parent determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) that the failure to do so would reasonably likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law, it may (A) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4(b) and cause Parent to enter into a Parent Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Parent Superior Proposal or (B) make a Parent Change in Recommendation in connection with a Parent Superior Proposal, but in the case of (1) Section 7.12(c)(ii)(A), only if such Parent Superior Proposal has not resulted from a breach of its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.12, and (2) Section 7.12(c)(ii)(A) or (B) only if (x) Parent provides written notice to the Company (a “Parent Notice of Change in Recommendation”) advising the Company that the Board of Parent intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor, including the terms and conditions of such Parent Superior Proposal, the identity of the Person making the Parent Superior Proposal and copies of all relevant documents relating to such Parent Superior Proposal that Parent has received from the Person or its representatives that made such proposal and that are the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Parent, including a copy of the proposed Parent Acquisition Agreement (if any) (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Parent Superior Proposal shall require a new Parent Notice of Change in Recommendation and compliance with the requirements of this Section 7.12(c)); (y) during a period of four (4) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of a Parent Notice of Change in Recommendation (or, in the event of a new Parent Notice of Change in Recommendation as a result of any such amendment, an extension of two (2) additional Business Days), if requested by the Company, Parent and its Representatives shall have negotiated with the Company and its Representatives in good faith to make such revisions or adjustments proposed by the Company to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Parent to proceed with its recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger and not to make such Parent Change in Recommendation; and (z) if applicable, at the end of such applicable 4- or 2-Business Day period, the Board of Parent, after considering in good faith any such revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Company, prior to the expiration of such applicable period, shall have offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by Parent, continues to determine in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors) that the Parent Alternative Proposal constitutes a Parent Superior Proposal and that failure to make such Parent Change in Recommendation would reasonably likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law.

(d) Other than in connection with a Parent Alternative Proposal, Parent may, at any time prior to, but not after, obtaining the Required Company Vote, make a Parent Change in Recommendation in response to a Parent Intervening Event (a “Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation”) if the failure to take such action would likely be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law, provided, that: (A) the Company shall have received written notice from Parent (a “Parent Notice

of Intervening Event Change in Recommendation”) of Parent’s intention to make a Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation at least four (4) Business Days prior to the taking of such action by Parent, which notice shall specify the applicable Parent Intervening Event in reasonable detail, (B) during such period and prior to making a Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation, if requested by the Company, Parent and its Representatives shall have negotiated in good faith with the Company and its Representatives regarding any revisions or adjustments proposed by the Company to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Parent to proceed with its recommendation of this Agreement and the Merger and not make such Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation and (C) Parent may make a Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation only if the Board of Parent, after considering in good faith any revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Company shall have, prior to the expiration of the 4-Business Day period, offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by Parent, continues to determine in good faith that failure to make a Parent Intervening Event Change in Recommendation would likely be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law. A “Parent Intervening Event” shall mean any fact, circumstance, occurrence, event, development, change or condition or combination thereof that (i) was not known to the Board of Parent as of the date of this Agreement (or if known, the consequences or magnitude of which were not known or reasonably foreseeable) and (ii) does not relate to (A) any Parent Alternative Proposal or (B) clearance of the Merger under the HSR Act, the EC Merger Regulation or any other Regulatory Law, including any action in connection therewith taken pursuant to or required to be taken pursuant to Section 7.6; provided, however, that (1) any change in the price or trading volume of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Parent Intervening Event has occurred (it being acknowledged, however, that any underlying cause thereof may be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Parent Intervening Event has occurred); (2) in no event shall any fact, circumstance, occurrence, event, development, change or condition or combination thereof that has had or would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries constitute a Parent Intervening Event unless such event, fact, circumstance or development constitutes a Company Material Adverse Effect; and (3) Parent or the Company meeting, failing to meet or exceeding projections shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Parent Intervening Event has occurred (it being acknowledged, however, that any underlying cause thereof may be taken into account for purposes of determining whether a Parent Intervening Event has occurred).

(i) “Parent Alternative Proposal” shall mean any bona fide proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons (A) for a merger, reorganization, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or any similar transaction or series of transactions involving Parent (or any Parent Subsidiary or Subsidiaries whose business constitutes 15% or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of Parent and Parent Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (B) for the issuance by Parent of 15% or more of its equity securities or (C) to acquire in any manner, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the equity securities or consolidated total assets of Parent or 15% or more of the aggregate equity securities of the Parent Subsidiaries, in each case other than the Merger.

(ii) “Parent Superior Proposal” shall mean any Parent Alternative Proposal (A) which provides that 100% of Parent’s outstanding equity securities shall be converted into, exchanged for or otherwise canceled in exchange for the right to receive consideration that does not constitute 50% or more of the outstanding equity securities of the acquiring or surviving entity or its ultimate parent or (B) providing for the sale of all or substantially all of Parent’s assets, in either case on terms which the Board of the Parent determines in its good faith judgment, after consultation with Parent’s outside counsel and financial advisors, would, if consummated, result in a transaction more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of Parent Common Stock than the Merger (or any bona fide written offer or proposal made by the Company in response to such Parent Alternative Proposal or otherwise), taking into account all the terms and conditions of such Parent Alternative Proposal and this Agreement (including any conditions to and expected timing of consummation thereof, and all legal, financial and regulatory aspects of such Parent Alternative Proposal and this Agreement).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.12 shall not apply to any action taken by or on behalf of Parent in connection with its obligations under Section 7.6.

(a) All rights to indemnification existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers and employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Persons”) as provided in the organizational and governing documents of the Company and Company Subsidiaries or under indemnification agreements between Indemnified Persons and the Company and Company Subsidiaries, in each case as in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “Indemnification Obligations”) shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect as obligations of the Surviving Entity for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Effective Time unless otherwise required by Law, provided that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim asserted or made during such period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim. Parent guarantees the full performance of the Indemnification Obligations by the Surviving Entity.

(b) The Company may prior to Closing obtain and fully pay for “tail” insurance policies for the Persons who, as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date, are covered by the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby); provided, that in no event shall the Company expend an amount pursuant to this Section 7.13(b) in excess of 300% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for its existing coverage in the aggregate set forth on Schedule 7.13(b) of the Company

Disclosure Letter. If for any reason the Company does not obtain and fully pay for such “tail” insurance policies prior to the Closing, Parent or the Surviving Entity shall maintain director and officer liability insurance policies from a reputable and financially sound carrier through and including the date six (6) years after the Effective Time with respect to claims arising from facts or events that existed or occurred prior to or at the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby) and such policies shall contain coverage that is at least as favorable to the Persons covered by such existing policies (a complete and accurate copy of which has been made available to Parent); provided, that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Entity be required to expend an amount pursuant to this Section 7.13(b) in excess of 300% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for its existing coverage in the aggregate and if such comparable coverage cannot be obtained by paying an aggregate premium equal to or below 300% of the current annual premium, the Surviving Entity shall only be required to maintain as much coverage as can be maintained by paying an aggregate premium equal to 300% of such amount.

(c) This Section 7.13 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and is intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by each Indemnified Person (notwithstanding that such Persons are not parties to this Agreement) and their respective heirs and legal representatives. The indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Person is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, contract or otherwise. If Parent or the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity resulting from such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall assume the applicable obligations set forth in this Section 7.13.

(d) 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 and Company Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents or fiduciaries under any Company Benefit Plan, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.13 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under any such policies.

The Company shall coordinate with Parent to designate the record dates and payment dates for the Company’s quarterly dividends to coincide with the record dates and payment dates for Parent’s quarterly dividends, it being the intention of the parties that holders of Parent Common Stock and Company Common Stock shall not receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, for any single calendar quarter with respect to their Parent Common Stock and Company Common Stock.

If any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination” or other takeover statute or similar statute or regulation, applies to this Agreement and the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, as the case may be, shall (a) take all reasonable action to ensure that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and (b) otherwise act to eliminate the effects of such takeover statute, Law or regulation.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to provide such cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of any financing to be consummated in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries); provided that until the Effective Time, the Company shall (i) have no liability or any obligation under any agreement or document related to the financing and (ii) not be required to incur any other Liability in connection with the financing unless simultaneously reimbursed or reasonably satisfactorily indemnified by Parent.

(b) Parent shall (i) promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the assistance contemplated by this Section 7.16 and (ii) indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives from and against any losses, damages, obligations or liabilities suffered or incurred in connection with the Financing or any assistance or activities in connection therewith.

The respective obligations of each party to effect the Merger are subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the waiver on or prior to the Closing Date of each of the following conditions:

(a) Stockholder Approval. Each of the Required Company Vote and the Required Parent Vote shall have been obtained.

(b) Antitrust/Competition. (i) Any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act shall have expired or been earlier terminated, (ii) the European Commission shall have issued a decision under the EC Merger Regulation declaring the Merger compatible with the common market, or, if the European Commission has adopted any decision under Article 9 of the EC Merger Regulation to refer the Merger in part to any Member State of the European Economic Area, the European Commission shall have issued a decision declaring the part of the Merger not so referred to that Member State compatible with the common market and every Member State to which part of the Merger has been referred under Article 9 having issued a decision clearing the Merger and (iii) all applicable waiting and other time periods under Regulatory Laws specified on Schedule 8.1(b), other than the HSR Act and the EC Merger Regulation, shall have expired, lapsed or been terminated (as appropriate) and all regulatory clearances set forth on Schedule 8.1(b) shall have been obtained.

(c) No Injunctions or Restraints. There shall be no Law, injunction, judgment, order, or decree of any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction that is in effect which temporarily or permanently prohibits or enjoins the consummation of the Merger.

(d) Effective Registration Statement. The Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC under the Securities Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement may be in effect and no proceeding for such purpose may be pending before or threatened by the SEC.

(e) NYSE Listing. The shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger or in connection with the Merger (including shares issuable under any Adjusted Options) shall have been approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance.

The obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to effect the Merger are further subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the waiver by Parent on or prior to the Closing Date of each of the following conditions:

(a) Representations and Warranties. (i) The representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 4.2(b) and (d) shall be true and correct, other than any inaccuracies that are de minimis in the context of a transaction of this magnitude, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as though made as of such date (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date), and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement (other than Section 4.2(b) and Section 4.2(d)) shall be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as though made as of such date (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date), except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to materiality or, other than with respect to Section 4.6(a), “Company Material Adverse Effect” set forth therein) individually or in the aggregate has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Performance of Obligations of the Company. The Company shall have performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed or complied with by it under this Agreement at or prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Tax Opinion. Parent shall have received the opinion of Baker Botts L.L.P., counsel to Parent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, dated the Closing Date, rendered on the basis of facts, representations and assumptions set forth in such opinion and the certificates obtained from officers of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, all of which are consistent with the state of facts existing as of the Effective Time, to the effect that (i) the

Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (ii) the Company and Parent will each be a “party to the reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. In rendering the opinion described in this Section 8.2(c), Baker Botts L.L.P. shall have received and may rely upon the certificates and representations referred to in Section 7.5(c).

(ix) (w) this Agreement is terminated (A) by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3(a) [Breach/Failure to Perform], due to Parent or Merger Sub’s material breach of Section 7.6 [Antitrust] which breach results in the condition set forth in Section 8.1(b) [Antitrust/Competition] being incapable of being satisfied, or (B) by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(a) [Termination Date] and as of the Termination Date, (x) one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(b) [Antitrust/Competition] or Section 8.1(c) [No Injunctions or Restraints] has not been satisfied (including, without limitation, as a result of Parent not agreeing to take or not taking any Antitrust Action in excess of the Detriment Limit, but only, in the case of Section 8.1(c) [Injunctions or Restraints],

if the failure to meet such condition is a result of any Regulatory Law) and (y) all of the other conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied (other than any such conditions which by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing Date but subject to such conditions being capable of being satisfied if the Closing Date were the date of termination); provided that for purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) have been satisfied the definition of “Company Material Adverse Effect” shall be interpreted without taking into account any effect resulting from any Regulatory Law applicable to the Merger or prohibition under or in respect of any Regulatory Law applicable to the Merger;

then (1) in any such event under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 9.5(a), the Company shall pay to Parent a termination fee of $1 billion in cash (the “Company Termination Fee”), less the aggregate amount of any of Parent’s Expenses previously reimbursed pursuant to the next paragraph, it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, and (2) in any such event under clause (iv), (vi) or (vii) of this Section 9.5(a), Parent shall pay to the Company a termination fee of $1.5 billion in cash (the “Parent Termination Fee”), and in any such event under clause (viii) or (ix) of this Section 9.5(a) Parent shall pay to the Company a termination fee of $3.5 billion in cash (the “Antitrust Termination Fee”), it being understood that in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee on more than one occasion or to pay more than one of the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee.

In the event that a Company Alternative Proposal shall have been publicly proposed or publicly disclosed prior to, and not withdrawn at least ten (10) days prior to, the Company Special Meeting and thereafter this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(c) [Required Company Vote] and no Company Termination Fee is yet payable in respect thereof pursuant to the preceding sentence, then the Company shall pay to Parent all of the Expenses of Parent and Merger Sub.

As used herein, “Expenses” shall mean, with respect to Parent or Merger Sub, all reasonable out-of-pocket documented fees and expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, consultants, financial advisors, Financing Sources and investment bankers of such party and its Affiliates) incurred by such party or on its behalf in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution, financing and performance of this Agreement and all other matters related to the Merger; provided, however, that in no event shall Expenses payable hereunder by the Company exceed $40 million in the aggregate.

For purposes of this Section 9.5, the term “Company Alternative Proposal” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.11, except that all references to “15%” therein shall be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(b) Any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to Parent promptly following the earlier of the execution of a definitive agreement with respect to, or the consummation of, any transaction contemplated by the Alternative Proposal (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to the Company of notice of demand for payment); any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (ii) of

Section 9.5(a) shall be made to Parent concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3(b) [Company Superior Proposal]; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to Parent promptly following termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.4(c) [Company Change in Recommendation] (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to the Company of notice of demand for payment); and in each case such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account details of Parent provided in writing by Parent to the Company for such purposes. Any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (vi) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to the Company concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.4(b) [Parent Superior Proposal]; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (iv) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.3(c) [Parent Change in Recommendation] (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment); any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (vii) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.2(d) [Required Parent Vote] (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment) and shall be made to the Company concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(d) [Required Parent Vote]; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (viii) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.2(b) [Injunction] (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment) and shall be made to the Company concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(b) [Injunction]; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (ix) of Section 9.5(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 9.2(a) [Termination Date] or 9.3(a) [Breach/Failure to Perform] (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment) and shall be made to the Company currently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 9.2(a) [Termination Date]; and, in each case, such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account details of the Company provided in writing by the Company to Parent for such purposes. In circumstances where this Section 9.5 requires a reimbursement of Expenses, the Company shall reimburse Parent and Merger Sub for such Expenses on the later of (i) the day that is three (3) Business Days after the date of termination of this Agreement and (ii) the day that is three (3) Business Days after the delivery of documentation of such Expenses, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account details of the Company provided in writing by the Company to Parent for such purposes or the account details of Parent provided in writing by Parent to the Company for such purposes, as applicable.

(c) In the event that the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall fail to pay the Company Termination Fee, the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee, as applicable, and/or Expenses required pursuant to this Section 9.5 when due, such fee and/or Expenses, as the case may be, shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such fee and/or Expenses, as the case may be, became past due, at a rate equal to the rate of interest

publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank. N.A., in the City of New York from time to time during such period, as such bank’s Prime Lending Rate. In addition, if either party shall fail to pay such fee and/or Expenses, as the case may be, when due, such party shall also pay to the other party all of such other party’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with efforts to collect such fee and/or Expenses, as the case may be.

(d) Parent and the Company acknowledge that the fees, Expense reimbursement and the other provisions of this Section 9.5 are an integral part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and that, without these agreements, Parent and the Company would not enter into this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that none of the Company Termination Fee, the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee is a penalty, but rather a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Sub, or the Company, as the case may be, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties agree that in circumstances where payment of the Company Termination Fee, the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee is required hereunder, upon such payment, the payment of any such Company Termination Fee, Parent Termination Fee or Antitrust Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 9.5, shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parent and Merger Sub or the Company, as the case may be, for (i) any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger to be consummated and (ii) any other losses, damages, obligations or liabilities suffered as a result of or under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Upon payment of the Company Termination Fee, the Parent Termination Fee or the Antitrust Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 9.5, none of the Company or Parent or any of their respective stockholders, partners, members, directors, Affiliates, officers or agents, as the case may be, shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Sections 9.1 through 9.4, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and, except as set forth in this Section 9.5, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or their respective Affiliates or Representatives, provided that (i) Sections 4.10, 5.9, 7.3(h), 7.10(c) and 9.5 will survive termination hereof and (ii) no party shall be relieved from any liabilities or damages (which the parties acknowledge and agree may include, in addition to reimbursement of expenses and out-of-pocket costs, and to the extent proven, other damages suffered by the other party calculated based on loss suffered by such other party’s stockholders (taking into consideration all relevant matters and equitable considerations), which shall be deemed in such event to be damages of such other party and not of such other party’s stockholders themselves and may only be pursued by such other party through actions expressly approved by its board of directors) as a result of any willful and material breach by any party of any of such party’s representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 9.5(e), “willful and material breach” shall mean a material breach that is a consequence of an act or a failure to take such act by the breaching party with the knowledge that the taking of such act (or the failure to take such act) would cause a material breach of this Agreement.

(a) This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, at any time before or after approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by action by or on behalf of the respective Boards of Directors of the parties hereto or the stockholders of the Company; provided, however, that after any such approval by the stockholders of the Company, no amendment shall be made without the further approval of such stockholders except as permitted by Law. This Agreement (including the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter) may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 9.6(b) and Sections 9.5(d), 10.4(a)(ii), 10.4(c) and 10.6(b)(i) may not be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in a manner adverse to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources that are party to a commitment letter or similar agreement with Parent.

Any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived at any time prior to the Effective Time by any of the parties entitled to the benefit thereof only by a written instrument signed by each such party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and, in the case of delivery in person or by overnight courier, shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person or overnight courier to the respective parties, delivery by facsimile transmission (providing confirmation of transmission) to the respective parties or delivery by electronic mail transmission (providing confirmation of transmission) to the respective parties. Any notice sent by facsimile transmission or electronic mail transmission shall be deemed to have been given and received at the time of confirmation of transmission. Any notice sent by electronic mail transmission shall be followed reasonably promptly with a copy delivered by courier or facsimile. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be addressed as follows, or to such other address, facsimile number or email address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 10.1:

The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall not survive the Merger.

(a) (i) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. (ii) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE COMPANY (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES) AND EACH OF THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE OF ANY KIND OR NATURE (WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) AGAINST ANY AGENT, ARRANGER, LENDER OR OTHER ENTITY THAT HAS COMMITTED TO PROVIDE OR ARRANGE ANY FINANCING TO BE CONSUMMATED BY PARENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER, OR ANY OF SUCH PERSON’S AFFILIATES OR ITS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, TRUSTEES, SHAREHOLDERS, CONTROLLING PERSONS, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES (A “FINANCING SOURCE”) THAT IS IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MERGER, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY FINANCING TO BE CONSUMMATED BY PARENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW); PROVIDED THAT (1) THE INTERPRETATION OF THE DEFINITION OF COMPANY MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT AND WHETHER OR NOT A COMPANY MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT HAS OCCURRED, (2) THE DETERMINATION OF THE ACCURACY OF ANY MERGER AGREEMENT REPRESENTATIONS (AS DEFINED IN ANY COMMITMENT LETTER RELATED TO SUCH FINANCING) AND WHETHER AS A RESULT OF ANY INACCURACY THEREOF PARENT, MERGER SUB OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES HAVE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR TO DECLINE TO CONSUMMATE THE MERGER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND (3) THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER THE MERGER HAS BEEN CONSUMMATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT, IN EACH CASE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED SOLELY IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER STATE.

(b) Each of the parties hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) or, if, but only if, the Chancery Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware with respect to any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this

Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the courts of the State of Delaware, as described above, and (iv) waives any right to trial by jury with respect to any action related to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 10.4 shall prevent any party from bringing an action or proceeding in any jurisdiction to enforce any judgment of the Chancery Court or any federal court located in the State of Delaware, as applicable. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 10.1 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company (on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries) and each of the other parties hereto (i) agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or the Merger, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to any financing obtained by Parent in connection with the Merger or the performance thereof or the transactions contemplated thereby, in any forum other than exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, located in the Borough of Manhattan, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof), and (ii) waives any right to trial by jury with respect to any action related to such financing or arising out of any action, proceeding or counterclaim against any Financing Source.

(d) 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. Each party agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any other party of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it whether in law or equity, including monetary damages) to (a) a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. In circumstances where Parent and the Company are obligated to consummate the Merger and the Merger has not been consummated (other than as a result of the other party’s refusal to close in violation of this Agreement) each of Parent and the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that the other party and its stockholders shall have suffered irreparable harm, that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate such other party and its stockholders, and that such other party on behalf of itself and its stockholders shall be entitled to enforce specifically Parent’s or the Company’s, as the case may be, obligation to consummate the Merger.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, and delivered by means of electronic mail transmission or otherwise, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(a) This Agreement and all of the provisions hereto shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations set forth herein shall be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as giving any Person, other than the parties hereto and their heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof, except that (i) the Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Section 10.6(b)(i) and Sections 9.5(d), 9.6(b), 10.4(a)(ii) and 10.4(c) only, and each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of such Financing Sources and such Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections, and (ii) after the Effective Time, each Indemnified Person is intended to be a third party beneficiary of Section 7.13 and may specifically enforce its terms.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each party shall bear its own expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any applicable Law, then such contravention or invalidity shall not invalidate the entire Agreement. Such provision shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, and if no such modification shall render it legal, valid and enforceable, then this Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the provision held to be invalid, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced accordingly.

This Agreement (including the annexes, exhibits and letters hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings (both written and oral), among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above.
