Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 15, 2006, SunPower Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“SunPower”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Pluto Acquisition Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SunPower (“Merger Sub”), PowerLight Corporation, a California corporation (“PowerLight”), and Thomas L. Dinwoodie, as the representative of certain of PowerLight’s shareholders (the “Shareholder Representative”), as announced in the attached press release. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, PowerLight will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), and Merger Sub will continue as the surviving company in the Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SunPower. The Board of Directors of SunPower approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement on November 13, 2006. The summaries set forth below do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by the agreements attached as exhibits hereto.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), SunPower will acquire all of the outstanding capital stock, options and convertible securities of PowerLight in exchange for aggregate consideration of (i) $130 million in cash plus (ii) a number of shares of SunPower’s class A common stock equal to (x) $195 million divided by (y) the average volume weighted average price of SunPower’s class A common stock for the twenty consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Effective Time occurs (the “Parent Common Stock Price”), in each case less certain expenses of PowerLight relating to the Merger (collectively, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). The stock portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration is subject to a collar such that no fewer than approximately 5.6 million shares and no more than approximately 6.2 million shares, including shares issuable upon the exercise of assumed options, may be issued. Approximately $60 million of the stock portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration issued to PowerLight employees will be subject to vesting over 2 years. SunPower has also agreed to issue to employees of the PowerLight business a number of shares of restricted stock, which will be subject to vesting over 4 years, equal to $7.5 million divided by the Parent Common Stock Price. The obligation to issue restricted stock is also subject to a collar, such that no fewer than approximately 217,000 shares, and no more than approximately 240,000 shares, may be issued. SunPower has also agreed to certain limitations on its ability to conduct financing transactions during the period prior to the Effective Time, including a limitation on aggregate proceeds of $150,000,000.

PowerLight and SunPower have made customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, in the case of PowerLight, covenants (i) to conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice during the interim period between execution of the Merger Agreement and the earlier of its termination or the Effective Time, (ii) not to engage in certain kinds of transactions during such period, and (iii) not to solicit proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions. The completion of the Merger is subject to various closing conditions, including, but not limited to (i) obtaining the approval of the shareholders of PowerLight, (ii) no legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the Merger, (iii) expiration or termination of the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino Act waiting period, (iv) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties made in the Merger Agreement, and (v) the absence of any material adverse change affecting PowerLight or SunPower. The Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization for federal income tax purposes and to provide for a tax-free exchange of shares.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, and in consideration thereof: (i) certain shareholders of PowerLight entered into an agreement with SunPower (the “Support Agreement”), whereby each such shareholder agreed to vote all of the shares of capital stock of PowerLight beneficially owned by such shareholder in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ii) Cypress Semiconductor Corporation, a majority shareholder of SunPower (“Cypress”), entered into an agreement with PowerLight (the “Lockup Agreement”), whereby Cypress agreed not to (a) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of SunPower’s Class B common stock beneficially owned by Cypress, (b) convert such stock into any other security, (c) sell substantially all of the assets of SunPower or (d) engage in any transaction that could have a similar effect for 120 days, subject to extension under certain circumstances, following the execution of the Merger Agreement; and (iii) Cypress entered into an agreement with SunPower (the “Loan Agreement”), whereby Cypress agreed to lend to SunPower up to $130,000,000, at SunPower’s request and subject to conditions, at any time prior to the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and for six months after the Effective Time. Any borrowings by SunPower under the Loan Agreement will be evidenced by a senior subordinated unsecured note, bearing interest at a rate equal to LIBOR on the issuance date plus 475 basis points, and maturing on the first anniversary of the issuance date thereof. The note shall be subordinated to existing and future bank debt of SunPower.

A copy of the press release announcing SunPower’s entry into the Merger Agreement is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, a copy of the Merger Agreement, the Lockup Agreement and the Loan Agreement are attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of November 15, 2006 (this “Agreement”), is by and among SunPower Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Pluto Acquisition Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), PowerLight Corporation, a California corporation (the “Company”), and Thomas L. Dinwoodie, as a representative of the Company Shareholders (as defined in Section 8.4) (the “Shareholders’ Representative”).

BACKGROUND

A. The board of directors of each of the Company and Parent and the sole member of Merger Sub have determined that it would be advisable and in the best interests of their respective stockholders or members, as applicable, for Parent to acquire the Company by means of the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and, in furtherance thereof, have approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

B. In order to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, certain Company Shareholders are executing and delivering Support Agreements in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Support Agreement”), and certain key employees of the Company are executing and delivering binding Noncompetition Agreements in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

D. In order to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, certain employees of the Company are executing and delivering Equity Restriction Agreements in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each, an “Equity Restriction Agreement”).

E. In order to induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent is executing and delivering a binding Supply Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Supply Agreement”).

F. The Company and Parent intend that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements in this Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware (the “DLLCA”) and the General Corporation Law of the State of California (the

“CGCL”), the Company shall be merged with and into Merger Sub at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), which shall be the time of Closing (as defined in Section 1.2) unless otherwise agreed by both parties as set forth in the certificate of merger, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (the “Certificate of Merger”), to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary”), the agreement of merger, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (the “Agreement of Merger”), to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California (the “California Secretary”) and the certificate of merger, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (the “CA Certificate of Merger”), to be filed with the California Secretary if, as and when the Closing occurs. Merger Sub shall be the surviving company (sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Company”) in the Merger and shall succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of the Company in accordance with the DLLCA and the CGCL.

1.2 The Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable after the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 5 or at such other time as the parties agree in writing. The Closing shall take place at the offices of Jones Day, 1755 Embarcadero Road, Palo Alto, California, or at such other location as the parties agree. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is herein referred to as the “Closing Date.”

1.3 Effects of the Merger.

(a) At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger, the Agreement of Merger, the CA Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DLLCA and the CGCL.

(b) At the Effective Time, the certificate of formation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended as provided by the DLLCA and such certificate of formation; provided, however, that, at the Effective Time, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company shall be amended so that the name of the Surviving Company shall be “PowerLight LLC.”

(c) At the Effective Time, the operating agreement of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the operating agreement of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended as provided by the DLLCA, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company and such operating agreement.

(d) At the Effective Time, the officers of Merger Sub, as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the officers of the Surviving Company, for so long as provided under the DLLCA, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company and the operating agreement of the Surviving Company.

1.4 Effects on Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Parent, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities, the following shall occur:

(a) Each share of capital stock of the Company (the “Company Capital Stock”) that is owned by the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefore.

2

(b) Each issued and outstanding share of Company Capital Stock (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 1.4(a) and Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1.7(a)) shall be converted into the right to receive the consideration specified and allocated in this Section 1.4 (the “Merger Consideration”). As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Capital Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate formerly representing any such shares of Company Capital Stock (the “Certificates”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration as allocated in this Section 1.4 upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 1.5.

(i) Upon the Closing, Parent shall issue and/or deliver to the Exchange Agent (as defined in Section 1.5), in the aggregate, on account of all shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.4(a) and Dissenting Shares) and all rights (including options (other than options assumed pursuant to Section 4.14) and warrants) to acquire shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (A) $130,000,000 in cash, minus an amount equal to 40% of any Excess Transaction Expenses (as defined in Section 4.16) (the “Cash Consideration”); and (B) a number of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) equal to (1) $195,000,000, minus an amount equal to 60% of Excess Transaction Expenses divided by (2) the Parent Common Stock Price, with cash in lieu of fractional interests in accordance with Section 1.6, as applicable (the “Stock Consideration”). The “Parent Common Stock Price” shall mean the Average Parent Trading Price; provided, however, that (1) if the Average Parent Trading Price is less than $31.312, then the Parent Common Stock Price shall be deemed to be $31.312, or (2) if the Average Parent Trading Price is greater than $34.608, then the Parent Common Stock Price shall be deemed to be $34.608. The “Average Parent Trading Price” shall be the average volume weighted average price of the Parent Common Stock (as reported, absent manifest error, on Nasdaq.com) for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on and including the trading day that is immediately preceding the day on which the Closing occurs. A portion of the Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration otherwise payable to the Indemnifying Shareholders in the Merger equal to an aggregate of $48,750,000 (the “Aggregate Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited at the Closing with U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), in accordance with a Cash Escrow Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 with such changes as reasonably required by the Escrow Agent (the “Cash Escrow Agreement”), by and among the Parent, the Escrow Agent and the Shareholders’ Representative, with respect to such portion of the Cash Consideration, and the Stock Escrow Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 with such changes as reasonably required by the Escrow Agent (the “Stock Escrow Agreement,” and together with the Cash Escrow Agreement, the “Escrow Agreements”), by and among the Parent, the Escrow Agent and the Shareholders’ Representative with respect to such portion of the Stock Consideration. The Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 8.4) will be held and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreements and ARTICLE 7 of this Agreement. The

3

percentage of the Aggregate Escrow Amount which must be contributed by each Indemnifying Shareholder shall be equal to the Indemnification Percentage (as defined in Section 7.1). No later than two business days prior to the Closing Date, the Indemnifying Shareholders shall deliver a notice signed by each Indemnifying Shareholder (the “Escrow Allocation Notice”) to Parent stating the amount (as a percentage of each Indemnifying Shareholder’s portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount) of the Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration which should be deposited into the Cash Escrow Fund and the Stock Escrow Fund, respectively, at the Closing, to fund each Indemnifying Shareholder’s portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount, and Parent shall deposit the amounts based on the Escrow Allocation Notice into the Cash Escrow Fund and the Stock Escrow Fund, as the case may be, provided that if Parent does not receive an Escrow Allocation Notice from the Indemnifying Shareholders two business days prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall fund each Indemnifying Shareholder’s portion of the Aggregate Escrow Amount such that 40% of such amount shall be funded with a portion of the Cash Consideration and the remainder with a portion of the Stock Consideration, in each case which would otherwise have been payable to each Indemnifying Shareholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at least 40% of the Aggregate Escrow Amount must consist of Cash Consideration. The final percentages of the Aggregate Escrow Amount consisting of Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration shall be referred to as the “Cash Escrow Percentage” and the “Stock Escrow Percentage,” respectively. For purposes of this Section 1.4(b), the Stock Consideration shall be valued in accordance with Section 7.2(e).

(ii) The Merger Consideration shall be allocated as follows: Each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive, and shall become exchangeable for:

(A) The Cash Amount; and

(B) The Stock Amount.

For purposes of this Section 1.4(b)(ii), 40% of each share of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive and shall become exchangeable for the Cash Amount and 60% of each share of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive and shall become exchangeable for the Stock Amount.

(c) If there is a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock), reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to shares of Company Capital Stock or Parent Common Stock occurring after the date of this Agreement and before the Effective Time, all references in this Agreement to specified numbers of shares of any class or series affected thereby, and all calculations provided for that are based upon numbers of shares of any class or series (or trading prices therefore) affected thereby, shall be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change.

4

1.5 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, Parent shall enter into an agreement with Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (or such other bank or trust company in the United States as may be designated by Parent, the “Exchange Agent”), which shall provide that Parent shall, upon the Closing, deliver to the Exchange Agent (i) the shares of Parent Common Stock and cash necessary for the payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.1 and the cash consideration necessary for the payment to holders of vested Company Options pursuant to Section 4.14(a)(i)(A). Parent shall pay the fees and expenses of the Exchange Agent.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver or mail to each holder of record of a Certificate (i) a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 with such changes as the Exchange Agent shall reasonably request (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in surrendering Certificates in exchange for consideration specified and allocated in Section 1.4. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, 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 Certificate shall receive in exchange therefore the Merger Consideration for which the shares formerly held by such holder are to be exchanged in accordance with Section 1.4 (less any shares of Parent Common Stock deposited in the Stock Escrow Fund and/or cash deposited into the Cash Escrow Fund), and the certificates so surrendered shall be canceled. If a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Capital Stock represented by a Certificate has not been registered in the Company’s transfer records, payment may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Certificate is properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such issuance shall pay any transfer or other Tax (as defined in Section 2.9(a)) required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. Other than interest earned that becomes part of the Cash Escrow Fund, no interest shall be paid or will accrue on the cash payable to holders of Certificates in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 1.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver or mail to each holder of record of a Company Option of which a portion is vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2 with such changes as the Exchange Agent shall reasonably request (an “Option Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in submitting the Option Letter of Transmittal in exchange for the cash consideration specified in Section 4.14(a)(i)(A). No interest shall be paid or will accrue on the cash payable to holders of Company Options in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 1.

(d) All shares of Parent Common Stock issued and all cash paid upon the surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE 1 (including shares of Parent Common Stock deposited into the Stock Escrow Fund and cash deposited into the Cash Escrow Fund) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Capital

5

Stock represented by such certificates, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of the shares of Company Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE 1, except as otherwise provided by law.

(e) None of Parent, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash delivered to a public official in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered, or any Option Letter of Transmittal shall not have been delivered, immediately prior to the date on which any amounts payable in accordance with this ARTICLE 1 would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 2.3), any such amounts shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the execution and delivery to the Exchange Agent by the holder of record of such Certificate of such additional documentation that the Exchange Agent may reasonably request, the payment to the Exchange Agent by such holder of any indemnity/surety bond in such amount as required by the Exchange Agent and the payment to the Exchange Agent by such holder of any handling or other fee required by the Exchange Agent, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration with respect thereto in accordance with Section 1.5.

(g) The Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable in accordance with this Agreement to any former holder of shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options such amounts as the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent reasonably believes is required to be deducted and withheld 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 and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent.

1.6 Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, and in lieu thereof each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Parent an amount of cash equal to such fraction of a share multiplied by the Parent Common Stock Price.

1.7 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and unless otherwise provided by applicable law, shares of Company Capital Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are owned by shareholders who have properly perfected their dissenter’s rights in accordance with the provisions of applicable law (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless and until such shareholders shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their right of payment under applicable law, but, instead, the holders thereof shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of law. If any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such dissenter’s rights, each share of Company Capital Stock held by such shareholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into the right to receive and become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration specified and allocated in Section 1.4.

(b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any objections filed in accordance with applicable law received by the Company, withdrawals of such objections and any other instruments served in connection with such objections in accordance with applicable law and received by the Company or its representatives, and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to objections under applicable law consistent with the Company’s obligations thereunder; provided that the Company shall have the right to participate in such negotiations and proceedings. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, (A) voluntarily make any payment or statement against interest with respect to any such objection, (B) offer to settle or settle any such objection, or (C) waive any failure by a former shareholder of the Company to timely deliver a written objection or to perform any other act perfecting appraisal rights in accordance with applicable law.

There is no private or governmental action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation pending before any Governmental Entity or arbitrator, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets or properties, including any Company IP Rights (as defined in Section 2.8(a)), or any of their respective officers or directors (in their capacities as such). There is no judgment, decree or order against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective assets or properties, or, to the knowledge of the Company, any of their respective directors or officers (in their capacities as such), that could reasonably be expected to prevent, enjoin, or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or that, individually or in the aggregate with any such other judgments, decrees and orders, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

2.7 Restrictions on Business Activities. There is no Contract (including covenants not to compete), judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that has or could reasonably be expected to have, whether before or after consummation of the Merger, the effect of prohibiting or impairing any Company IP Right, any current or future business practice of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any acquisition of property (tangible or intangible) by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the conduct of business by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into any customer or other similar Contract that includes a “most favored pricing” or similar clause restricting or otherwise impacting the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to sell Company Product or Service (as defined in Section 2.8(c)) in any manner or terms under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is restricted from selling, licensing or otherwise distributing any of their respective technology or products to, or from providing services to, customers or potential customers or any class of customers, in any geographic area, during any period of time or in any segment of the market.

2.8 Intellectual Property.

(a) The Company or one of its Subsidiaries (i) owns, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Company, has the valid right or license to use and possess all Intellectual Property (as defined below) used in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as currently conducted (the “Company IP Rights”), and such Company IP Rights are sufficient for such conduct of Company’s business as currently conducted.

11

(b) Except as set forth in Section 2.8(b)(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement will materially impair the rights of the Company or the Surviving Company in any Company IP Right or portion thereof. Except as set forth in Section 2.8(b)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is paying any royalties, honoraria, fees or other payments to any third person (other than salaries payable to employees and independent contractors not contingent on or related to use of their work product) as a result of the ownership, use, possession, license-in, sale, marketing, advertising or disposition of any Company IP Rights, and none shall become payable as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Section 2.8(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter (A) sets forth a list of each of the products and services currently produced, manufactured, marketed, licensed, sold, furnished or distributed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each a “Company Product or Service”), and (B) identifies, for each such Company Product or Service, whether the Company or Subsidiary provides support or maintenance for such Company Product or Service. Neither the operation of the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ business as currently conducted (including the use, development, manufacture, marketing, license, sale or furnishing of any Company Product or Service) does not (i) violate any Contract between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any third party, or (ii) infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property right of any third party. Except as set forth in Section 2.8(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice (or, to the knowledge of the Company, any oral notice) asserting that any Company IP Right or the proposed use, sale, license or disposition of any Company Product or Service conflicts with or infringes, or would conflict with or infringe, the Intellectual Property or other rights of any third party, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice (or, to the knowledge of the Company, any oral notice) from any third party offering a license under any such third party Intellectual Property or other right to avoid litigation or other claims.

(d) To the knowledge of the Company and except as set forth in Section 2.8(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter, no current or former employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries: (i) is in material violation of any term or covenant of any employment contract, patent disclosure agreement, invention assignment agreement, nondisclosure agreement, noncompetition agreement or any other Contract with any third party by virtue of such employee’s, consultant’s or independent contractor’s being employed by, or performing services for, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or using Trade Secrets or other Intellectual Property of others without permission; (ii) has developed any technology, Software or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is subject to any Contract under which such employee, consultant or independent contractor has assigned or otherwise granted to any third party any Intellectual Property or other right in or to such technology, Software or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work; (iii) has failed to execute and deliver to the Company an enforceable Contract regarding the protection of such Trade Secrets and other Intellectual Property rights (and in the case of Trade Secrets and other Intellectual Property rights of the Company’s customers and business partners, to the extent required by such customers and business partners); or (iv) has failed to deliver an enforceable written Contract assigning the rights to such employee’s, consultant’s or independent contractor’s contributions to the Company IP Rights

12

that may be owned by such Persons or that the Company does not otherwise own by operation of law. To the knowledge of the Company, neither the employment of any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor the use by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the services of any consultant or independent contractor subjects the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any obligation to any third party for improperly soliciting such employee, consultant or independent contractor to work for the Company or such Subsidiary, whether such obligation is contractual or otherwise. To the knowledge of the Company, no third party has or will have any “moral rights” or rights to terminate any assignment or license with respect to the Company IP.

(e) The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken all reasonable steps consistent with industry standard practices to (i) protect, preserve and maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of Trade Secrets in the Company IP Rights, and (ii) preserve and maintain all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ proprietary rights included among Company-Owned IP Rights.

To the knowledge of the Company, all registered Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks and Domain Names held by the Company are valid, enforceable and subsisting, and the Company is the record owner thereof. All necessary registration, maintenance and renewal fees in connection with such Company-Owned IP Rights (and Company-Licensed IP Rights in which the Company has a contractual right or obligation to pay registration, maintenance and renewal fees) have been paid and all necessary documents and articles in connection with such Company IP have been filed with the relevant patent, copyright, trademark or other authorities in the United States or foreign jurisdictions, as the case may be, for the purposes of maintaining such Company-Owned IP Rights (and Company-Licensed IP Rights in which the Company has a contractual right or obligation to pay registration, maintenance and renewal fees). Except as set forth in Section 2.8(f)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter, there are no actions that must be taken by Company or any of its Subsidiaries within 180 days of the Closing Date, including the payment of any registration, maintenance or renewal fees or the filing of any documents, applications or articles for the purpose of maintaining, perfecting or preserving or renewing any such Company-Owned IP Rights (and Company-Licensed IP Rights in which the Company has a contractual right or obligation to pay registration, maintenance and renewal fees).

(g) The Company owns all right, title and interest in and to all Company-Owned IP Rights free and clear of any and all liens, claims, charges, security interests, mortgages, easements, covenants, pledges, licenses, options, preemptive rights, rights of

13

first refusal or first offer, proxies, levies, voting trusts or agreements, or other adverse claims or restrictions on title or transfer of any nature whatsoever (“Encumbrances”), other than licenses and rights listed in Section 2.8(g)(i) of Company Disclosure Letter. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ right to use the Company-Licensed IP is subject only to the terms and conditions of the licenses listed in Section 2.8(g)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(h) Except as set forth in Section 2.8(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter, to the knowledge of the Company, there is no unauthorized use, disclosure, infringement or misappropriation of any Company-Owned IP Rights by any third party, including any employee or former employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has agreed to indemnify any Person for any infringement of any Intellectual Property of any third party by any Company Product or Service that has been sold, licensed to third parties, leased to third parties, supplied, marketed, distributed or provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(i) To the knowledge of the Company and except as set forth in Section 2.8(m) of the Company Disclosure Letter, no Governmental Entity, university, college or other educational institution or research center has any right to (other than license rights for internal purposes), ownership of or right to royalties for Company-Owned IP Rights.

(j) To the knowledge of the Company, the Company and its Subsidiaries has been and is in compliance with the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended, and all regulations promulgated thereunder.

(k) In each case in which Company of any of its Subsidiaries has acquired ownership of Intellectual Property from any third party (other than current or former employees, independent contractors or consultants), Company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, has obtained a valid and enforceable assignment sufficient to irrevocably transfer all rights in such Intellectual Property (including the right to seek past and future damages with respect thereto) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and, to the extent necessary under applicable laws, the Company or applicable Subsidiaries have recorded each such assignment with the relevant Governmental Entities.

(l) Except as set forth in Section 2.8(l) of the Company Disclosure Letter, none of the Company-Owned IP Rights has been adjudicated invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and, to the knowledge of the Company, the Company-Owned IP Rights are valid and enforceable. No Company-Owned IP Right is subject to any outstanding injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling, charge, settlement or other disposition of any dispute regarding any Company IP.

2.9 Taxes.

(a) “Tax” means (i) any net income, alternative or add-on minimum tax, gross income, gross receipts, sales, use, ad valorem, transfer, franchise, profits, license, withholding, estimated, payroll, employment, excise, severance, stamp, occupation, premium, property, environmental or windfall profit tax, custom duty or other tax, governmental fee or other like assessment or

(e) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has (i) been or will be required to include any material adjustment in Taxable income for any Tax period (or portion thereof) in accordance with Section 481 or 263A of the Code or any comparable provision under state or foreign Tax laws as a result of transactions, events or accounting methods employed prior to the Merger, (ii) filed any disclosures under Section 6662 or comparable provisions of state, local or foreign law to prevent the imposition of penalties with respect to any Tax reporting position taken on any Tax Return, (iii) engaged in a “reportable transaction,” as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b), (iv) ever been a member of a consolidated, combined, unitary or aggregate group of which

Merger Sub was formed by Parent to effect the Merger and, since its date of formation, Merger Sub has not owned any assets or engaged in any activities other than in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Each of Parent and Merger Sub has the power to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as now being conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing, individually or in the aggregate with any such other failures, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent or Merger Sub.

3.2 Capital Structure.

(a) The authorized capital stock of Parent consists of 375,000,000 shares of the common stock of Parent, par value $0.001 per share, of which 217,500,000 shares are designated as “Class A Common Stock” and 157,500,000 shares are designated as “Class B Common Stock,” and 10,042,490 shares of Parent Preferred Stock.

All shares of Parent Capital Stock and all Merger Sub Units have been duly authorized, and all issued and outstanding shares of Parent Capital Stock and Merger Sub Units have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. As of October 2, 2006, there was an aggregate of 288,801 shares of Parent Common Stock available for issuance to employees and directors of, and consultants to Parent under Parent’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Parent Stock Plan”).

Except for the options exercisable for Parent Common Stock described in this Section 3.2(a), and except for those Contracts described in or filed as exhibits to the Parent SEC Documents (as defined in Section 3.4), as of the date hereof, there are no Contracts to which Parent is a party, or by which it is bound,

All outstanding Parent securities and all outstanding Merger Sub securities were issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. Parent directly owns 100% of the outstanding membership interests in Merger Sub.

(b) The shares of Parent to be issued in accordance with this Agreement will, upon such issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free of any Encumbrances and not subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal created by statute, the organizational documents of Parent or Merger Sub or any Contract to which Parent or Merger Sub is a party or is bound.

3.3 Authority; Noncontravention.

(a) Each of Parent and Merger Sub has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action, as the case may be, on the part of Parent and Merger Sub. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Parent and Merger Sub and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and the Shareholders’ Representative, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Parent and Merger Sub enforceable against Parent and Merger Sub, as applicable, in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to rights of creditors generally, and (b) rules of law and equity governing specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies.

(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, (i) result in the creation of a lien on the properties or assets of Parent or Merger Sub, (ii) conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, renegotiation or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under, or require any consent, approval or waiver from any Person in accordance with, (a) any provision of the organizational documents of Parent or Merger Sub, or (b) any contract, permit, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective properties or assets, except, in each case, as would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to Parent and Merger Sub in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for (A) the filing of the Certificate of Merger, the Agreement of Merger and the CA Certificate of Merger, (B) such filings as may be required under the HSR Act and any required foreign antitrust filing, (C) applicable requirements if any, of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, state securities or the Blue Sky Laws, and (D) approval by the SEC in connection with the Registration Statement and the Parent Information Statement (as defined in Section 4.13(b)).

3.4 SEC Documents; Financial Statements. Parent has filed all forms, reports and documents required to be filed by it with the SEC since November 17, 2005 until the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Parent SEC Documents”) and has made available to the Company a true and complete copy of all of the Parent SEC Documents. Parent will file all forms, reports and documents required to be filed by it with the SEC after the date hereof and before the Closing Date. As of their respective filing dates, each Parent SEC Document complied (and each document to be filed with the SEC by Parent after the date hereof and before the Closing Date (“Subsequent SEC Documents”) will comply) in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or the Securities Act, as applicable, and each Parent SEC Document, as of its respective filing date and taken together with all other Parent SEC Documents filed prior to such date, did not contain (and each Subsequent SEC Document will not, as of its filing date and taken together with the Parent SEC Documents and Subsequent SEC Documents filed prior to such date, will not contain) any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except to the extent corrected in a subsequently filed Parent SEC Document or Subsequent SEC Document, and to the extent based on information (financial or otherwise) provided by the Company or any of its shareholders.

Parent maintains disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act; such controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all material information concerning Parent and its Subsidiaries is made known on a timely basis to the individuals responsible for the preparation of Parent SEC Documents and other public disclosure documents. The Parent SEC Documents contain an audited consolidated balance sheet of Parent as of December 31, 2005 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and cash flow for the year then ended and Parent’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2006 (the “Parent Balance Sheet”) and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flow for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended (collectively, the “Parent Financials”). The Parent Financials (i) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto or, in the case of the unaudited financial statements, as permitted by GAAP), and (ii) present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of Parent and each of its Subsidiaries as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, except as otherwise noted therein (subject, in the case of interim period financial statements, to normal recurring year-end audit adjustments, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, are material). There has been no change in Parent accounting policies since September 30, 2006, except as described in the notes to the Parent Financials or required by GAAP.

3.5 No Material Adverse Change. Since September 30, 2006 and until the date of this Agreement, Parent and each of its Subsidiaries has conducted its business only in the ordinary course of business and there has not occurred: (a) any change, event or condition (whether or not covered by insurance) that, individually or in the aggregate with any other changes, events and conditions,

29

has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect on Parent, (b) any amendment or change in the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of Parent, or (c) any damage to, destruction or loss of any assets of Parent (whether or not covered by insurance) that has had a Material Adverse Effect on Parent.

3.6 Litigation. There is no private or governmental action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation pending before any Governmental Entity or arbitrator, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened against Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets or properties or any of their respective officers or directors (in their capacity as such) that could reasonably be expected to prevent, enjoin or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or that individually or in the aggregate with any such other action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent. There is no judgment, decree or order against Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective assets or properties, or, to the knowledge of Parent, any of their respective directors or officers (in their capacity as such) that could reasonably be expected to prevent, enjoin, or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or that, individually or in the aggregate with any such other action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent.

3.7 Available Funds. Parent has, and shall have at the Closing, sufficient funds on hand to permit Parent to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

3.8 Board Approval. The Board of Directors of Parent, by resolutions duly adopted (and not thereafter modified or rescinded) by unanimous vote (with no abstentions) at a meeting duly called and held, has (a) approved this Agreement and the Merger, and (b) determined that this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Merger are fair, just, reasonable, equitable, advisable and in the best interest of Parent and its stockholders. No vote of Parent’s stockholders is required in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than as contemplated by Section 4.13.

3.9 Brokers’ and Finders’ Fees. Except for fees payable to Lehman Brothers, neither Parent nor Merger Sub has incurred, nor will they incur, directly or indirectly, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or investment bankers’ fees or any similar charges in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby.

3.10 Reorganization. Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken or agreed to take any action not provided for in this Agreement (nor does Parent or any of its Subsidiaries have knowledge of any fact or circumstance not specified or provided for in this Agreement) that would prevent the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

3.11 Intellectual Property. Parent and its Subsidiaries own or otherwise have the right to use all material trademarks, trade names, know-how, patents, copyrights, trade secrets, confidential information and other material intellectual property rights (collectively “Intellectual Property Rights”) necessary to conduct the business now operated by them. To the Parent’s knowledge,

30

the business now operated by Parent and its Subsidiaries does not infringe or misappropriate any third party intellectual property rights and neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of infringement of, misappropriation of, or conflict with (including invitations to license) the asserted intellectual property rights of third parties.

3.12 Disclosure. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the time that the Proxy Statement is mailed to the stockholders of the Company, at the time of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting or as of the Effective Time, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement will, at the time that the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC or at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representation or warranty is made by Parent with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement based on information supplied by or on behalf of the Company for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement or Registration Statement.

35

“Acquisition Transaction” means any transaction involving: (x) the sale, license, disposition or acquisition of all or a substantial portion (excluding sales of inventory or the provision of services in the ordinary course of business) of the business or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (y) the issuance, disposition or acquisition of (A) any capital stock or other equity security of the Company (other than Company Capital Stock issued upon exercise of Company Options or Company Warrants or conversion of Company Preferred Stock), (B) any option, call, warrant or right (whether or not immediately exercisable) to acquire any capital stock or other equity security of the Company (other than Company Options issued in the ordinary cause of business under the Company Stock Plan), or (C) any security, instrument or obligation that is or may become convertible into or exchangeable for any capital stock or other equity security of the Company; in each of clauses (A) through (C), representing in the aggregate 10% or more of the voting power of the Company; or (z) any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Company that if consummated would result in any Person (other than Parent) beneficially owning 10% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal after the date of this Agreement and prior to receipt of a vote of the Company Shareholders adopting this Agreement and approving the Merger, the Company shall be permitted (i) to engage in discussions and negotiations with, and provide nonpublic information or data to, the Person making the Acquisition Proposal or (ii) recommend approval of the Acquisition Proposal to the shareholders of the Company or withdraw or modify in an adverse manner the Company Board Recommendation, if and only to the extent that, (A) in any case as is referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), the Company has entered into a nondisclosure agreement with the Person making the Acquisition Proposal having provisions that are no less favorable to the Company and no less restrictive on such Person than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, (B) the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its independent outside legal counsel (who may be the Company’s regularly engaged outside legal counsel) and a nationally recognized financial advisor) that the Acquisition Proposal, if accepted, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, would more likely than not constitute a Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined in this Section 4.4(b)), (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, if consummated, would constitute a Superior Proposal, and (z) in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, that the failure to engage in discussions and negotiations with respect to such Acquisition Proposal or to recommend approval of the Acquisition Proposal to the Company Shareholders or withdraw or modify in an adverse manner the Company Board Recommendation, as the case may be, would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company Shareholders under applicable law, and (C) in any case as is referred to in clause (ii) above, the Company has provided to Parent five business days’ prior written notice that the Company Board intends to withdraw or modify in an adverse manner the Company Board Recommendation and specifying the material terms and conditions of the pending Superior Proposal and identifying the Person or Persons making such Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” means a bona fide written proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 4.4(a) proposing a transaction involving: (x) the sale, disposition or acquisition of business or assets of the Company that in the aggregate contributed (90%) or more of the Company’s revenue over the prior twelve months; (y) the issuance, disposition or acquisition of (A) any capital stock or other equity security of the Company (other than Company Capital Stock issued to upon exercise of Company Options or Company Warrants or

36

conversion of Company Preferred Stock), (B) any option, call, warrant or right (whether or not immediately exercisable) to acquire any capital stock or other equity security of the Company (other than Company Options issued in the ordinary course of business under the Company Stock Plan), or (C) any security, instrument or obligation that is or may become convertible into or exchangeable for any capital stock or other equity security of the Company; in each of clauses (A) through (C), representing in the aggregate 50% or more of the voting power of the Company; or (z) any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after (i) consultation with its independent outside legal counsel (who may be the Company’s regularly engaged outside legal counsel) and a nationally recognized financial advisor and (ii) taking into account all of the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal and this Agreement, including (A) the likelihood that the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Proposal will close in a timely manner, and (B) the extent to which the financing for the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Proposal, to the extent required, is committed or is capable of being obtained on the terms proposed) is more favorable to Company’s shareholders than the Merger.

4.5 Securities Laws Matters.

(a) Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Stock Consideration to be registered on a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC (the “Registration Statement”).

(b) Parent shall prepare, and the Company shall reasonably cooperate in such preparation, and Parent shall file with the SEC, as soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Registration Statement, which shall include the consent solicitation or proxy statement/prospectus to be sent to the Company Shareholders in connection with the Company Shareholders Meeting or any consent solicitation conducted in lieu thereof (as amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”), and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon thereafter as practicable.

(c) Each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to comply with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws.

(d) Each of Parent (for itself and Merger Sub) and the Company shall provide promptly to the other such information concerning its business and financial statements and affairs as (i) in the reasonable judgment of the providing party or its counsel, may be required or appropriate for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Proxy Statement, or in any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii) such other party may reasonably request, and to cause its counsel, auditors and other representatives to cooperate with the other party’s counsel, auditors and other representatives in the preparation of the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement.

37

4.12 Treatment as Reorganization. This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of section 1.368-2(g) of the income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, and each party agrees to cooperate with the other parties and to provide to the other parties such information and documentation as may be necessary, proper or advisable, to cause the Merger to qualify, and will not knowingly take any action not provided for or contemplated in this Agreement that would cause the Merger to fail to qualify, as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

4.13 Bonus Plan.

(a) Parent agrees to issue a number of shares of restricted stock (“RSs”) equal to the Stock Pool to eligible Company employees in accordance with Schedule 4.13.

Parent, in consultation with the Company, shall issue the remaining unallocated portion of the Stock Pool to current employees of the Company or future employees involved in the business of the Company. The RSs to be issued in accordance with this Section 4.13 shall vest annually over a four-year period at a rate of 25% per year from the Closing Date. Parent shall make initial grants from the Stock Pool promptly after the Closing, but in no event later than five business days after the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event that the number of shares of Parent Common Stock available under the Parent Stock Plan is inadequate to make all of the initial grants, Parent shall make the initial grants from the Stock Pool on a pro rata basis to each Company employee entitled thereto up to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock then available under the Parent Stock Plan, promptly after the Closing, but in no event later than five business days thereafter, and shall make the remainder of the initial grants from the Stock Pool to each Company employee entitled thereto promptly after the effectiveness of the Parent Stock Plan Amendment, but in no event later than two business days thereafter.

The Company shall provide promptly to Parent such information concerning its business and affairs as, in the reasonable judgment of the Company or its counsel, may be required or appropriate for inclusion in the Parent Information Statement, or in any amendments or supplements thereto. Parent shall notify the Company of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff or any other governmental officials for amendments or supplements to the Parent Information Statement or any other filing or for additional information and shall provide the Company with copies of all correspondence between parent or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff or any other governmental officials, on the other hand, with respect to the Parent Information Statement. Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to respond to any comments or requests from the SEC, its staff or any other governmental official as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof. Upon the later of (i) five calendar days after the date that the Parent Information Statement is filed with the SEC, and (ii) five calendar days after the date that Parent shall have responded to all comments and requests for additional information from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Parent Information Statement and the SEC has indicated to Parent that its comments and requests have been resolved, Parent shall deliver the Parent Information Statement to the stockholders of Parent in accordance with applicable law.

4.14 Assumption of Options.

(a) At the Closing, the Company Stock Plan and each Company Option under the Company Stock Plan that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, be assumed by Parent. Each such option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including, if applicable, the terms and conditions set forth in the Company Stock Plan and the applicable stock option agreement) as are in effect immediately prior to the Closing, except that:

(i) The portion of each such Company Option that is vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to acceleration provisions triggered as a result of the Merger) shall:

(A) Entitle its holder to receive, in accordance with Section 1.6, an amount of cash equal to (i) the product of the Cash Amount multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such vested portion immediately prior to the Effective Time minus (ii) the product of (x) the aggregate exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such vested portion immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (y) the quotient of the Option Stock Amount divided by the Common Exchange Ratio; and

(B) From and after such assumption, (i) be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock) equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such vested portion immediately prior to the Effective Time,

42

multiplied by (2) the Stock Amount, and (ii) have a per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed vested portion equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (1) the product of (x) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such vested portion was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the quotient of the Stock Amount divided by the Common Exchange Ratio, divided by (2) the Stock Amount; and

(ii) The portion of each such Company Option that is not vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to acceleration provisions triggered as a result of the Merger) (i) shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock) equal to the product of (A) of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such unvested portion immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) the Common Exchange Ratio, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed unvested portion shall be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such unvested portion was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Common Exchange Ratio.

(iii) For purposes of this Section 4.14:

(A) The “Common Exchange Ratio” shall mean an amount equal to the sum of the Stock Amount and the Option Stock Amount.

(B) The “Option Stock Amount” means a number of shares (or a fraction of a share) of Parent Common Stock equal to the Cash Amount divided by the fair market value of one share of Parent Common Stock as of the Closing based on the average volume weighted average price of the Parent Common Stock (as reported, absent manifest error, on Nasdaq.com) for the five consecutive trading days ending and including the trading day that is immediately preceding the day on which the Closing occurs.

(iv) Consistent with the terms of the Company Stock Plan and the documents governing the outstanding options under such plan, the Merger shall not terminate any of the outstanding options under the Company Stock Plan or accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such options or the shares of Parent Common Stock that shall be subject to those options upon Parent’s assumption of the options in the Merger. It is the intention of the parties that the options so assumed by Parent hereunder qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, following the Effective Time as “incentive stock options” as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent such options qualified as incentive stock options prior to the Effective Time. It is the intention of the parties that the adjustments provided herein shall be effected in a manner which is consistent with Sections 409A and 424 of the Code.

(b) No more than 30 days following (i) in the case of holders of options of which a portion is vested immediately prior to the Effective Time, the delivery of an Option Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 1.5(c), and (ii) in the case of holders of options of which no portion is vested immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Closing, Parent shall

43

issue to each Person who immediately prior to the Effective Time was a holder of an outstanding option under the Company Stock Plan a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such option by Parent, and indicating the number of shares of Parent Common Stock for which such option is exercisable, the exercise price(s) for each share of such Parent Common Stock, each calculated in accordance with Section 4.14(a). Such document shall be final and binding on each holder of an assumed option.

(c) At or before the Effective Time, Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of Company Options assumed in accordance with this Section 4.14. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, and, in no event, within five business days after the Effective Time, Parent shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate forms) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to any Company Options.

4.15 Spreadsheet. The Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent, at or prior to the Closing, a spreadsheet or spreadsheets in form reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Exchange Agent, which spreadsheet shall be dated as of the Closing Date and shall set forth, as of the Closing Date, all factual information relating to holders of Company Capital Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants reasonably requested by Parent and the Exchange Agent, including (a) the names of all shareholders, optionholders and warrantholders of the Company and their respective addresses, (b) the number and kind of shares of Company Capital Stock held by, or subject to the Company Options or Company Warrants held by, such Persons and, in the case of shares, the respective certificate numbers, (c) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (or options or warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock) and cash issuable to each holder of Company Capital Stock, Company Options or Company Warrants (provided that Parent and the Company will work together to determine the allocation of Merger Consideration to the Company’s securityholders), (d) the interest of each Indemnifying Shareholder in the Cash Escrow Fund and Stock Escrow Fund, (e) the post-Closing vesting arrangements with respect to Company Options, and (f) the exercise price per share in effect for each Company Option and Company Warrant immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Spreadsheet”).

4.16 Expenses. At least two business days prior to Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent a final estimate of all legal and investment banking fees and expenses of the Company (including any expenses incurred by the Company) incurred since December 31, 2005 in connection with this Agreement and transactions contemplated hereby and in connection with any potential initial public offering of the Company in excess of $1,000,000 (the “Excess Transaction Expenses”) to be used in calculating the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.4. Subject to Section 7.6(d), Parent shall be entitled to recover 40% of any Excess Transaction Expenses not previously deducted from the Merger Consideration at the Closing starting with dollar one, and disregarding the Indemnification Threshold provided for in Section 7.2(a), from the Cash Escrow Fund, pursuant to ARTICLE 7, and 60% of any Excess Transaction Expenses not previously deducted from the Merger Consideration at the Closing starting with dollar one, and disregarding the Indemnification Threshold provided for in Section 7.2(a), from the Stock Escrow Fund, pursuant to ARTICLE 7. Subject to the foregoing, all costs and expenses (“Transaction Expenses”) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the fees and expenses of its advisers, accountants and legal counsel) shall be paid by the party incurring such expense.

44

4.17 Section 280G Matters.

(a) The Company shall obtain and deliver to Parent, prior to the initiation of the procedure described in Section 4.17(b), an excess parachute payment waiver, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, from each Person whom the Company reasonably believes is, with respect to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company and/or any ERISA Affiliate of the Company, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), as determined immediately prior to the initiation of the procedure described in Section 4.17(b), and who might otherwise have, receive or have the right or entitlement to receive an excess parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code as a result of (i) the accelerated vesting of such Person’s Company Options or unvested Company Capital Stock in connection with the Merger and/or the termination of employment or service with the Company, Parent or any of their Subsidiaries following the Merger, (ii) any severance payments or other benefits or payments in connection with the Merger and/or the termination of employment or service with the Company, Parent or any of their Subsidiaries following the Merger, and/or (iii) the receipt of any Company Options or Company Capital Stock within the 12-month period ending on the date on which the Effective Time occurs, in accordance with which each such Person shall agree to waive any and all right or entitlement to the accelerated vesting, payments, benefits, options and stock referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) unless the requisite shareholder approval of such accelerated vesting, payments, benefits, options and stock is obtained in accordance with Section 4.17(b).

(b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval by such number of Company Shareholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code so as to render the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits provided in accordance with agreements, contracts or arrangements that, in the absence of the executed Excess Parachute Payment Waivers by the Persons described in Section 4.17(a), might otherwise result, separately or in the aggregate, in such payment being considered a “parachute payment,” in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of such Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such Treasury Regulations.

Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing and subject to the terms of this Agreement, in the event an injunction or other order preventing the consummation of the Merger shall have been issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, each party hereto shall its use reasonable best efforts to have such injunction or other order lifted. Each party hereto, at the reasonable request of the other party hereto, shall execute and deliver such other instruments and do and perform such other acts and things as may be necessary or reasonably desirable for effecting completely the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

4.22 Employee Benefits Matters.

Any agreements, contracts or arrangements that may result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code shall have been approved by such number of shareholders of the Company as is required by the terms of Section 280G in order for such payments and benefits not to be deemed parachute payments under Section 280G of the Code, with such approval to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the proposed Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such proposed Treasury Regulations, and, in the absence of such shareholder approval, none of those payments or benefits shall be paid or provided, in accordance with the waivers of those payments and benefits to be executed by the affected individuals in accordance with Section 4.17.

this Agreement prior to its termination; and provided, further, that the Confidentiality Agreement and the provisions of Sections 4.16 and 6.2 and ARTICLE 8 (but excluding Section 8.1) shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

6.3 Amendment. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, Parent and the Company may amend this Agreement at any time in accordance with an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each such party, and such amendment shall be binding on each party hereto; provided, however, that an amendment made subsequent to adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Merger by the Company Shareholders shall not (a) alter or change the amount or kind of consideration to be received on conversion of the Company Capital Stock in the Merger in accordance with Section 1.4, or (b) alter or change any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement if such alteration or change would materially and adversely affect the holders of Company Capital Stock. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of all of the Company Shareholders immediately prior to the Closing) may cause this Agreement to be amended at any time after the Effective Time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of all of the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time); provided, however, that any amendment made in accordance with this sentence shall not (i) alter or change the amount or kind of consideration to be received in exchange for Company Capital Stock in accordance with Section 1.1 or Section 1.4 or (ii) alter or change any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement if such alteration or change would materially and adversely affect the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Closing.

ARTICLE 7

ESCROW FUND AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification by Indemnifying Shareholders. Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 7, the Indemnifying Shareholders, severally but not jointly, agree to indemnify and hold harmless Parent and the Surviving Company and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees, Subsidiaries, directors and employees of Subsidiaries, and each Person, if any, who controls or may control Parent and the Surviving Company within the meaning of the Securities Act (each of the foregoing, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, suits, settlements, liabilities, royalties, costs and expenses, including costs of investigation, settlement and defense and reasonable legal fees, court costs and any interest costs or penalties (collectively, “Losses”), arising out of, related to or otherwise by virtue of (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any certificate required to be delivered at Closing to Parent or Merger Sub in accordance with Section 5.3(b), (b) any breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement, (c) any appraisal or similar action with respect to shares of Company Capital Stock (provided, that Losses arising under this Section 7.1(c) shall equal (i) the excess of any consideration awarded in any appraisal action over (ii) the value as of the Closing of the Merger Consideration allocable to the former Company Shareholders whose shares of Company Capital Stock were the subject of such appraisal action), (d) any Excess Transaction Expenses not previously deducted from the Merger Consideration at Closing, (e) the items set forth on Schedule 7.1(e), and (f) the items set forth on Schedule 7.1(f). In determining (A) whether any representation or warranty (other than the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.4, 2.5(a) and 2.27) was inaccurate or breached, or (B) the amount of any Losses in respect of any inaccuracy in or any breach of any representation and warranty, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification contained in such representation or warranty will in all respects be ignored. The parties agree that any Losses under this Section 7.1 shall be recoverable by an Indemnified Person (y) to the extent that cash remains in the Cash Escrow Fund or shares of Parent Common Stock remain in the Stock Escrow Fund, from the Cash Escrow Fund and Stock Escrow Fund, or (z) to the extent that no cash remains in the Cash Escrow Fund and no shares of Parent Common Stock remain in the Stock Escrow Fund, from the Indemnifying Shareholders in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in the provisions of this ARTICLE 7. The proportion of Losses for which each Indemnifying Shareholder shall be responsible under this ARTICLE 7 shall be based on the “Indemnification Percentage” set forth next to such Indemnifying Shareholder’s name on Schedule 7.1.

7.2 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Indemnified Persons are not entitled to indemnification in respect of any claim under Section 7.1(a) (i) unless such claim (which may be aggregated with (A) all related claims, and (B) all claims arising out of the same facts and circumstances) involves Losses in excess of $50,000, and (ii) unless and until Losses in accordance with Section 7.1(a) have been incurred, paid or properly accrued in an aggregate amount greater than $2,434,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”); provided that for the purpose of determining whether the Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded, claims (when aggregated with (A) all related claims, and (B) all claims arising out of the same facts and circumstances) involving Losses of $50,000 or less shall be excluded. Notwithstanding

52

the foregoing, the Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover for, and the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply to, any Losses with respect to any breach of any of the Excluded Representations (as defined in Section 8.1). Once the Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded, the Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover all Losses in excess of the Indemnification Threshold.

(b)

(i) The Indemnifying Shareholders are liable for Losses under Section 7.1 of up to an aggregate maximum amount of (A) $48,750,000 prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (B) $24,375,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $24,375,000 actually paid at any time to the Indemnified Persons) between the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (C) $15,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $33,750,000 actually paid at any time to the Indemnified Persons) between the second anniversary of the Closing Date and the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (D) $10,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $38,750,000 actually paid at any time to the Indemnified Persons) between the third anniversary of the Closing Date and the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (E) $5,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $43,750,000 actually paid at any time to the Indemnified Persons) between the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date and the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (as adjusted, the “Cap”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any pending claim made hereunder shall only be subject to the Cap in effect at the time such claim was made and no pending unresolved or unsatisfied claim for Losses shall be limited in any manner by any annual adjustment of the Cap.

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Shareholders will not be liable for Losses in respect of claims arising under Section 7.1(e) (“Section 7.1(e) Claims”) in excess of (A) $30,000,000 prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and (B) $20,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in respect of Section 7.1(e) Claims in excess of $10,000,000 actually paid at any time to the Indemnified Persons) between the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Special Cap”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any pending claim made hereunder shall only be subject to the Special Cap in effect at the time such claim was made and no pending unresolved or unsatisfied claim for Losses shall be limited in any manner by any annual adjustment of the Special Cap.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except in cases of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, the maximum aggregate liability of any Indemnifying Shareholder for Losses under Sections 7.1 (other Losses arising out of any breach of or inaccuracy in any Excluded Representation) shall be limited to such Indemnifying Shareholder’s pro rata share of the Cash Escrow Fund and the Stock Escrow Fund.

(c) No Indemnifying Shareholder shall have any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against Parent or the Surviving Company in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which such Indemnifying Shareholder may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

53

(d) Parent and Merger Sub agree and acknowledge that, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation or the failure of Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries to pay the Merger Consideration, the remedies provided in this ARTICLE 7 and in ARTICLE 7A shall after the Effective Time, be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the parties hereto for any claim or cause of action arising out of, in connection with or under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein.

(e) For purposes of this ARTICLE 7, each share of Parent Common Stock shall at all times be valued at the Parent Common Stock Price.

7.3 Claims Procedure. As soon as reasonably practicable after Parent becomes aware of any claim that might result in a Loss that the Indemnified Persons have under Section 7.1, Parent shall deliver to the Shareholders’ Representative (and if cash remains in the Cash Escrow Fund or shares of Parent Common Stock remain in the Stock Escrow Fund to the Escrow Agent) a certificate signed by any officer of Parent (an “Officer’s Certificate”):

(a) stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, paid or properly accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it may incur, pay or properly accrue, Losses;

(b) stating the amount of such Losses (which, in the case of Losses not yet incurred, paid or properly accrued, may be the maximum amount in good faith anticipated to be incurred, paid or properly accrued); and

(c) specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Parent) the individual items of such Losses included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Losses are related.

No delay in or failure to give an Officer’s Certificate by Parent to the Shareholders’ Representative or the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 7.3 will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that Parent has under this Agreement or alter or relieve the Indemnifying Shareholders of their obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Persons, except and to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Shareholders and provided that any claim made in such Officer’s Certificate pursuant to (i) Section 7.1(a) must be delivered during the applicable survival period of the relevant representation or warranty as provided in Section 8.1, (ii) Sections 7.1(b), 7.1(d) and 7.1(f) must be delivered no later than the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (iii) Section 7.1(c) must be delivered no later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and (iv) Section 7.1(e) must be delivered no later than the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

7.4 Objections to Claims. The Shareholders’ Representative may object to any claim set forth in such Officer’s Certificate by delivering written notice to Parent (and if cash remains in the Cash Escrow Fund or shares of Parent Common Stock remain in the Stock Escrow Fund, to the Escrow Agent) of the Shareholder Representative’s objection (an “Objection Notice”). Such Objection Notice must describe the grounds for such objection in reasonable detail. If an Objection Notice is not delivered by the Shareholders’ Representative to Parent within 30 days after delivery by Parent of the Officer’s Certificate (the “Objection Period”), such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Shareholders’ Representative that the Indemnified Persons are entitled to indemnification under Section 7.1 for the full amount of the Losses set forth in such Officer’s Certificate.

54

7.5 Resolution of Objections to Claims. If the Shareholders’ Representative shall object in writing to any claim or claims by Parent made in any Officer’s Certificate, Parent shall have thirty days after its receipt of the Objection Notice to respond in a written statement to such objection (such 30-day period, the “Response Period”).

(a) If after the expiration of the Response Period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith for twenty days thereafter to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, the Shareholders’ Representative and a senior representative of Parent shall meet within ten days of the expiration of such 20-day period and negotiate in good faith for one day with an impartial mediator in San Francisco, California.

(c) If no agreement can be reached after good faith mediation, the arbitration provisions of Section 8.11 shall be followed and the decision of the arbitrator regarding such claim shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement.

7.6 Payment of Claims.

(a) If no Objection Notice is delivered by the Shareholders’ Representative within the Objection Period:

(i) If cash is then remaining in the Cash Escrow Fund or shares of Parent Common Stock are then remaining in the Stock Escrow Fund (excluding cash and shares retained for pending claims), on the 31^st day following the Escrow Agent’s receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, the Escrow Agent shall release to Parent as soon as practicable out of the Cash Escrow Fund cash, in accordance with the Cash Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Cash Escrow Percentage of such Losses, and out of the Stock Escrow Fund shares of Parent Common Stock, in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Stock Escrow Percentage of such Losses (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.6(d)); provided, however, that, to the extent that such Losses have not then been incurred or paid by such Indemnified Person, Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) shall not be so entitled to receive, and the Escrow Agent shall not deliver shares or funds in respect thereof unless and until such Losses are actually incurred or paid by such Indemnified Person.

(ii) If no cash is then remaining in the Cash Escrow Fund and no shares of Parent Common Stock are then remaining in the Stock Escrow Fund (excluding cash and shares retained for pending claims) and the indemnifiable Loss does not arise out of, relate to or otherwise by virtue of the cases enumerated in Section 7.1(a) (other than any breach of or inaccuracy in any Excluded Representation), (b) or (e), on the 31^st day following the Shareholders’ Representative’s receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, Parent shall deliver a written notice to each Indemnifying Shareholder of such Indemnifying Shareholder’s obligation under this Agreement

55

to pay to Parent the amount of the Losses set forth in the Officer’s Certificate (the “Payment Notice”), and each Indemnifying Shareholder shall pay the amount of such Losses to Parent within 10 business days of receipt of such notice. In addition, Parent shall be entitled to place “stop transfer” restrictions on the shares of Parent Common Stock held by any Indemnifying Shareholder who fails to make such payment to Parent within 15 business days after receipt by such Indemnifying Shareholder of a Payment Notice.

(b) If an Objection Notice is delivered by the Shareholders’ Representative within the Objection Period, and if cash is then remaining in the Cash Escrow Fund or shares of Parent Common Stock are then remaining in the Stock Escrow Fund (excluding cash and shares retained for pending claims):

(i) If an agreement between Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative is reached in accordance with Section 7.5(a), the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall each execute a memorandum setting forth their agreement, which shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall distribute from the Cash Escrow Fund cash, in accordance with the Cash Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Cash Escrow Percentage of the aggregate amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum and from the Stock Escrow Fund shares of Parent Common Stock, in accordance with the Stock Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Stock Escrow Percentage of the aggregate amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.6(d)).

(ii) If an agreement is reached through mediation in accordance with Section 7.5(b), the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall each execute a memorandum setting forth their agreement, which shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall distribute from the Cash Escrow Fund cash, in accordance with the Cash Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Cash Escrow Percentage of the amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum and from the Stock Escrow Fund shares of Parent Common Stock, in accordance with the Stock Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Stock Escrow Percentage of the amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.6(d)).

(iii) If a determination is made through arbitration in accordance with Section 7.5(c), the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with the decision of the arbitrator, and make or withhold payments out of the Cash Escrow Fund and Stock Escrow Fund in accordance therewith; provided that the Escrow Agent shall distribute from the Cash Escrow Fund cash, in accordance with the Cash Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Cash Escrow Percentage of the amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum and from the Stock Escrow Fund shares of Parent Common Stock, in accordance with the Stock Escrow Agreement, having a value, in the aggregate, equal to the Stock Escrow Percentage of the amount of Losses agreed to in such memorandum (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.6(d)).

56

(c) If an Objection Notice is delivered by the Shareholders’ Representative within the Objection Period and if no cash is then remaining in the Cash Escrow Fund and no shares of Parent Common Stock are then remaining in the Stock Escrow Fund (excluding cash and shares retained for pending claims) if an agreement or determination is reached in accordance with Section 7.5(a), 7.5(b) or 7.5(c), Parent shall deliver a Payment Notice to each Indemnifying Shareholder, and each Indemnifying Shareholder shall pay the amount of the Losses agreed to by Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative to Parent within 10 business days of receipt of such Payment Notice. In addition, Parent shall be entitled to place “stop transfer” restrictions on the shares of Parent Common Stock held by any Indemnifying Shareholder who fails to make such payment to Parent within 15 business days after receipt by such Indemnifying Shareholder of a Payment Notice.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of releasing any shares of Parent Common Stock from the Stock Escrow Fund in order to satisfy any Indemnified Person’s Loss, an Indemnifying Shareholder may elect to pay the portion of such Loss which would have otherwise been satisfied with the shares of Parent Common Stock by delivering (or causing the Shareholders’ Representative to deliver) to the Escrow Agent an amount in cash equal to such difference by wire transfer. The Escrow Agent shall deliver such cash to the Indemnified Person and shall promptly transfer to the Shareholders’ Representative, on behalf of such Indemnifying Shareholder, such Indemnifying Shareholder’s pro rata portion of the number of shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise to be transferred to the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 7.6.

7.7 Escrow Fund Releases. On each anniversary of the Closing Date, the amount of cash in the Cash Escrow Fund and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (valued in accordance with Section 7.2(e)) held in the Stock Escrow Fund in the aggregate in excess of the then-applicable Cap, if any, for such anniversary of the Closing Date, less the aggregate amount of any unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Losses specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Shareholders’ Representative and the Escrow Agent prior to such anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (an “Interim Release Amount”), shall be released to the Indemnifying Shareholders as provided herein. On the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, the remainder of the Cash Escrow Fund and the Stock Escrow Fund not subject to unresolved or unsatisfied claims specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Shareholders’ Representative and the Escrow Agent prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (such amount and each Interim Release Amount, a “Release Amount”) shall be released to the Indemnifying Shareholders as provided herein. Forty percent of any Release Amount shall be released from the Cash Escrow Fund, and 60% of any Release Amount shall be released from the Stock Escrow Fund.

7.8 Third-Party Claims. If Parent becomes aware of a third-party claim that Parent believes may result in a claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 7.1 by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Parent shall promptly notify the Shareholders’ Representative of such third-party claim and provide the Shareholders’ Representative the opportunity to direct, through counsel of its own choosing (who shall be reasonably acceptable to Parent), at its own cost, the defense or settlement of such claim; provided, however, that (a) the claim or proceeding solely seeks (and continues to seek) monetary damages; (b) Parent reasonably determines in good faith that there is no reasonable likelihood that such claim will cause the Indemnified Persons to suffer

57

Losses in excess of the amount held in the Cash Escrow Fund and the Stock Escrow Fund from time to time during the pendency of the claim, excluding any amount subject to any other claim; and (c) the Shareholders’ Representative agrees in writing on behalf of all Indemnifying Shareholders that the Indemnifying Shareholders will be liable for any amounts paid in resolution or settlement of the claim regardless of the limitations set forth in ARTICLE 7 (the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (c) are, collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”). If the Litigation Conditions are met and the Shareholders’ Representative elects to assume the defense of any such claim or proceeding, the Shareholders’ Representative shall allow the Indemnified Persons to participate in such defense, but in such case the expenses of the Indemnified Persons shall be paid by the Indemnified Persons. An Indemnified Person shall provide the Shareholders’ Representative and counsel with reasonable access to its records and personnel relating to any such claim, assertion, event or proceeding during normal business hours and shall otherwise cooperate with the Shareholders’ Representative in the defense or settlement thereof, and the Indemnified Persons shall be reimbursed for all of their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. If the Shareholders’ Representative elects to direct the defense of any such claim or proceeding, the Indemnified Persons shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of any claim or demand arising from such asserted liability unless (i) the Shareholders’ Representative consents in writing to such payment, (ii) the Shareholders’ Representative withdraws from the defense of such asserted liability and Parent undertakes the defense or settlement of such claim or proceeding and settles such claim or proceeding in accordance with this Section 7.8 unless a final judgment from which no appeal may be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Shareholders is entered against Indemnified Persons for such liability. If the Shareholders’ Representative fails to defend or if, after commencing or undertaking any such defense, the Shareholders’ Representative fails to prosecute or withdraws from such defense, or if any of the Litigation Conditions cease to be met, Parent shall have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, and retain counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Shareholders’ Representative, at the Indemnifying Shareholders’ expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Shareholders shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Indemnified Persons in any single action, except to the extent that two or more such Indemnified Persons shall have conflicting interests in the outcome of such action and, without the consent of the Shareholders’ Representative in writing, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter (but in no event shall the amount of Losses exceed the aggregate of the actual cost incurred by the Indemnified Persons in defending such claim and the amount of such settlement). If the Shareholders’ Representative consents to any such settlement, neither the Shareholders’ Representative nor any Indemnifying Shareholder shall have any power or authority to object to the amount or validity of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person for indemnity with respect to such settlement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any costs and expenses of defense and investigation, including court costs and reasonable attorneys fees incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Persons in connection with the defense of any such third party claim, whether or not it is determined that there was a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty or any other matter specified in Section 7.1 as a basis for indemnification under this Agreement, shall constitute Losses subject to indemnities under Section 7.1.

58

7.9 Shareholders’ Representative.

(a) Each of the Indemnifying Shareholders hereby appoints Thomas L. Dinwoodie as its agent and attorney-in-fact as the Shareholders’ Representative for and on behalf of the Indemnifying Shareholders to: (i) give and receive notices and communications to or from Parent (on behalf of himself or any other Indemnified Person) and/or the Escrow Agent relating to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreements or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) authorize deliveries to Parent of cash or shares from the Cash Escrow Fund or the Stock Escrow Fund, as the case may be, in satisfaction of claims asserted by Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims) pursuant to ARTICLE 7, (iii) object to such claims in accordance with Section 7.4, (iv) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand mediation and arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, except for claims for indemnification made directly against the Indemnifying Shareholders, (v) bind such Indemnifying Shareholder to the contract referenced in Section 7.8(c) pursuant to which the Shareholders’ Representative agrees on behalf of all Indemnifying Shareholders that the Indemnifying Shareholders will be liable for any amounts paid in resolution or settlement of a third-party claim, the defense or settlement of which is controlled by the Shareholders’ Representative in accordance with Section 7.8, regardless of the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 7, (vi) Indemnifying Shareholder to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or that are specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance, and (vii) act as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Shareholders’ Representative shall be the sole and exclusive means of asserting or addressing any of the above, and no former shareholder shall have any right to act on its own behalf with respect to any such matters, other than any claim or dispute against the Shareholders’ Representative. The Person serving as the Shareholders’ Representative may be replaced from time to time by the holders of a majority in interest of the shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Indemnifying Shareholders upon not less than ten days’ prior written notice to Parent.

ARTICLE 7A

INDEMNIFICATION

7A.1 Indemnification of Company Indemnified Persons. Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 7A, Parent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees, Subsidiaries, directors and employees of Subsidiaries, and each Person, if any, who controls or may control any of the Company Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time within the meaning of the Securities Act (each of the foregoing, a “Company Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all Losses arising out of, related to or otherwise by virtue of (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement or any certificate required to be delivered at Closing to the Company in accordance with Section 5.2(b), or (b) any breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement. In determining (A) whether any representation or warranty (other than the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1(a), 3.3(b), 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.12) was inaccurate or breached, or (B) the amount of any Losses in respect of any inaccuracy in or any breach of any representation and warranty, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification contained in such representation or warranty will in all respects be ignored. The parties agree that any Losses under this Section 7A.1 shall be recoverable by a Company Indemnified Person from Parent in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in the provisions of this ARTICLE 7A.

60

7A.2 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Company Indemnified Persons are not entitled to indemnification in respect of any claim under Section 7A.1(a) (i) unless such claim (which may be aggregated with (A) all related claims, and (B) all claims arising out of the same facts and circumstances) involves Losses in excess of $50,000, and (ii) unless and until Losses in accordance with Section 7A.1 (a) have been incurred, paid or properly accrued in an aggregate amount greater than $2,500,000 (the “Parent Indemnification Threshold”); provided that for the purpose of determining whether the Parent Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded, claims (when aggregated with (A) all related claims, and (B) all claims arising out of the same facts and circumstances) involving Losses of $50,000 or less shall be excluded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover for, and the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply to, any Losses with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3. Once the Parent Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded, the Company Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover all Losses in excess of the Parent Indemnification Threshold.

(b) Parent is liable for Losses under Section 7.1A up to an aggregate maximum amount of $48,750,000 prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and $24,375,000 (less the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of $24,375,000 actually paid at any time to any Company Indemnified Party) between the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the second anniversary of the Closing Date (as adjusted, the “Parent Cap”); provided that no Losses arising out of, relating to or otherwise by virtue of any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 shall be subject to the Parent Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except in cases of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses arising out of, relating to or otherwise by virtue of the causes enumerated in Sections 7A.1(a) or (b) (other than any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3) that may be recovered from Parent shall be limited to the amount of the applicable Parent Cap. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any pending claim made hereunder shall only be subject to the Parent Cap in effect at the time such claim was made and no pending unresolved or unsatisfied claim for Losses shall be limited in any manner by any annual adjustment of the Parent Cap.

(c) The Company agrees and acknowledges that, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation or the failure of Parent to pay the Merger Consideration, the remedies provided in ARTICLE 7 and this ARTICLE 7A shall after the Effective Time, be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the parties hereto for any claim or cause of action arising out of, in connection with or under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein.

7A.3 Claims Procedure. As soon as reasonably practicable after any Company Indemnified Person becomes aware of any claim that might result in a Loss that such Company Indemnified Person has under Section 7A.1, Shareholders’ Representative shall deliver to Parent a certificate signed by the Shareholders’ Representative (a “Shareholders’ Representative Certificate”):

(a) stating that a Company Indemnified Person has incurred, paid or properly accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it may incur, pay or properly accrue, Losses;

61

(b) stating the amount of such Losses (which, in the case of Losses not yet incurred, paid or properly accrued, may be the maximum amount in good faith anticipated to be incurred, paid or properly accrued); and

(c) specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by such Company Indemnified Person) the individual items of such Losses included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Losses are related.

No delay in or failure to give a Shareholders’ Representative Certificate by the Shareholders’ Representative to Parent pursuant to this Section 7A.3 will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that the Company Indemnified Persons have under this Agreement or alter or relieve Parent of its obligations to indemnify the Company Indemnified Persons, except and to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced Parent, and provided that any claim made in such Shareholders’ Representative Certificate pursuant to Section 7A.1(a) is delivered during the applicable survival period of the relevant representation or warranty as provided in Section 8.1 and that any claim made in such Shareholders’ Representative Certificate pursuant to Section 7A.1(b) is delivered no later than the first anniversary of the Closing Date.

7A.4 Objections to Claims. Parent may object to any claim set forth in such Shareholders’ Representative Certificate by delivering written notice to the Shareholders’ Representative of Parent’s objection (a “Parent Objection Notice”). Such Parent Objection Notice must describe the grounds for such objection in reasonable detail. If a Parent Objection Notice is not delivered by Parent to the Shareholders’ Representative within 30 days after delivery by the Shareholders’ Representative of the Shareholders’ Representative Certificate (the “Parent Objection Period”), such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by Parent that the applicable Company Indemnified Person(s) are entitled to indemnification under Section 7.1A for the full amount of the Losses set forth in such Shareholders’ Representative Certificate.

7A.5 Resolution of Objections to Claims. If Parent shall object in writing to any claim or claims by the Shareholders’ Representative made in any Shareholders’ Representative Certificate, the Shareholders’ Representative shall have thirty days after its receipt of the Parent Objection Notice to respond in a written statement to such objection (such 30-day period, the “Shareholders’ Representative Response Period”).

(a) If after the expiration of the Shareholders’ Representative Response Period there remains a dispute as to any claims, Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall attempt in good faith for 20 days thereafter to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, a senior representative of Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall meet within ten days of the expiration of such 20-day period and negotiate in good faith for one day with an impartial mediator in San Francisco, California.

62

(c) If no agreement can be reached after good faith mediation, the arbitration provisions of Section 8.11 shall be followed and the decision of the arbitrator regarding such claim shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to the Agreement.

7A.6 Payment of Claims.

(a) If no Parent Objection Notice is delivered by Parent within the Parent Objection Period, Parent shall deliver the amount of such Losses to the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of the applicable Company Indemnified Person(s)) within 10 business days of the expiration of the Parent Objection Period.

(b) If a Parent Objection Notice is delivered by Parent within the Parent Objection:

(i) If an agreement between the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent is reached in accordance with Section 7A.4(a), Parent shall deliver the amount of the Losses agreed to by Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative to the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of the applicable Company Indemnified Person(s)) within 10 business days of the date of such agreement.

(ii) If an agreement is reached through mediation in accordance with Section 7A.5(b), Parent shall deliver the amount of the Losses agreed to by Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative to the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of the applicable Company Indemnified Person(s)) within 10 business days of the date of such agreement.

If a determination is made through arbitration in accordance with Section 7A.5(c), Parent shall deliver the amount of the Losses set forth in the final decision of the arbitration to the Shareholders’ Representative (on behalf of the applicable Company Indemnified Person(s)) within 10 business days of the date of such decision.

Exhibit 99.1

SunPower Signs Agreement to Acquire PowerLight Corporation

Acquisition Accelerates Growth and Product Innovation

SAN JOSE, Calif., November 15, 2006 – SunPower Corporation (NASDAQ: SPWR), a Silicon Valley-based manufacturer of the world’s highest-efficiency, commercially available solar cells and solar panels, today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire PowerLight Corp., a privately owned solar systems provider based in Berkeley, Calif. PowerLight is a leading global provider of large-scale solar power systems, having designed and deployed hundreds of large-scale solar systems with a total capacity of more than 100 megawatts over the past ten years. The PowerLight acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to SunPower’s non-GAAP earnings.¹

SunPower will be hosting a conference call and webcast at 9:30 am Eastern Standard Time Wednesday, November 15, 2006. The conference call can be accessed by dialing 1-800-894-5910 from within the U.S., or +1-785-424-1052 from outside the U.S. A live webcast of the presentation will be available through SunPower’s website at http://investors.sunpowercorp.com/events.cfm.

In North America, PowerLight is the market-leading installer of large, multi-hundred-kilowatt commercial rooftop and ground-mounted solar power plants in California, New Jersey, Nevada, and Hawaii. The company recently began providing complete residential solar system solutions to more than a dozen leading production homebuilders in California. In Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Korea, PowerLight designs, develops, operates and maintains solar electric power plants ranging from one megawatt to more than 10 megawatts, including two of the world’s largest solar electric power plants.

“Together, SunPower and PowerLight aim to accelerate the reduction of solar power costs to compete with retail electric rates without incentives,” said Tom Werner, SunPower CEO. “PowerLight is one of the premier system integrators worldwide and presents us with a downstream investment opportunity that will accelerate SunPower’s revenue growth while meeting our long-term financial model. By working closely with PowerLight over the past year as one of its key suppliers, we have gained great respect for their innovative products and the breadth and depth of their customer relationships. We intend to build on our strong market positions and duplicate our success in other emerging markets.”

¹ The PowerLight acquisition is expected to be dilutive to SunPower’s GAAP earnings until 2009 as a result of amortization charges from intangible assets and stock-based compensation.

“We are excited to join forces with the world’s leading solar technology company,” said Tom Dinwoodie, CEO of PowerLight. “As one of SunPower’s largest customers, we have experienced first-hand the powerful leverage that SunPower’s high-efficiency solar panels deliver to project economics. We see tremendous synergies between PowerLight’s patented system technologies and large-scale solar project expertise and SunPower’s high-efficiency solar cell technology and manufacturing discipline. Together we plan to develop the next generation of solar products and solutions that accelerate solar system cost reductions and radically simplify and improve the solar customer experience.”

“We believe that substantial growth opportunities lie ahead for our industry as solar system costs become competitive with retail electricity rates market by market over the next decade,” said Werner. “That vision will drive the strategy and objectives of our unified company.”

The total consideration for the acquisition is $265 million upfront plus a retention carve-out of $67.5 million vesting over 2 to 4 years. The aggregate consideration consists of approximately $130 million in cash and $202.5 million in stock and is expected to result in a tax-free merger for PowerLight’s shareholders. The acquisition is expected to accelerate SunPower’s revenue growth. SunPower intends to maintain its long-term financial model non-GAAP gross margin objective of 30%.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by PowerLight’s shareholders and regulators. The parties anticipate closing the transaction in the first quarter of 2007. Following conclusion of this transaction, the combined company will have approximately 1,600 employees in ten sales offices and four manufacturing locations worldwide.

Lehman Brothers is acting as exclusive financial advisor to SunPower and Jones Day is acting as legal advisor to SunPower with regard to the transaction. Morgan Stanley is acting as exclusive financial advisor to PowerLight and Shearman and Sterling LLP is acting as legal advisor to PowerLight with regard to the transaction.

Forward Looking Statement

This press release contains forward looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward looking statements are statements that do not represent historical facts. We use words such as “believes,” “plans” and “expects” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements related to the benefits of the proposed transaction between SunPower and PowerLight, the completion of the transaction, our plans and expectations for financial performance, including revenue, gross margin and income for the third quarter and the full year of 2006 and the full year of 2007, the accretive nature of the transaction and our ability to meet our long term financial model, and the development and future cost structure of the solar power industry. These forward-looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this release and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control. In particular, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ include difficulties encountered in integrating the merged businesses; the risk that the transaction does not close, including the risk that requisite stockholder and regulatory approvals may not be obtained; the possibility that expected synergies and cost savings will not be obtained; the uncertainty of business and economic conditions and growth trends in the solar power industry; our ability to obtain adequate supply of polysilicon and silicon ingots to manufacture our products and the price we pay for such material, our ability to ramp new production lines, our ability to realize expected manufacturing efficiencies, the possibility of production difficulties, the risk of continuation of supply of products and components from suppliers to PowerLight, including competitors of SunPower, and the continuation of existing large-scale PowerLight customer projects. These and other risk factors are contained in documents that the company files with the SEC, including the Form 10-K for fiscal 2005 and its recent 10-Qs, as well as filings we make with regard to this transaction. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we are under no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any responsibility to, update or alter our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

To supplement the consolidated and projected financial results prepared under GAAP, SunPower uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude items related to amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and the related tax effects. Management does not consider these charges in evaluating the core operational activities of the Company. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate the Company’s current

performance. Most analysts covering SunPower use the non-GAAP measures as well. Given management’s use of these non-GAAP measures, SunPower believes these measures are important to investors in understanding the Company’s current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enabling them to better assess changes in SunPower’s core business across different time periods. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Fiscal Periods

The company operates on a fiscal calendar comprised of four thirteen-week quarters that end at midnight Pacific Time on the Sunday nearest the calendar quarter-end. For simplicity, the company labels its fiscal quarters as ending on the calendar quarter date.

IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC

SunPower plans to file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 in connection with the transaction. The Registration Statement will contain important information about SunPower, PowerLight, the transaction and related matters. Investors and security holders are urged to read the Registration Statement carefully when they are available. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Registration Statement and other documents filed with the SEC by SunPower through the web site maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov. In addition, investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Registration Statement from SunPower by contacting Investor Relations at 408-240-5588 or http://investors.sunpowercorp.com/sec.cfm.
