The Merger shall not become effective until the following actions shall be completed: (a) This Agreement and the Merger shall have been adopted and approved by the stockholders of ADA California and the sole stockholder of ADA Delaware in accordance with the requirements of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the General Corporation Law of the State of California; (b) All of the conditions precedent to the consummation of the Merger specified in this Agreement shall have been satisfied or duly waived by the party entitled to satisfaction thereof; (c) An executed Certificate of Merger or an executed counterpart of this Agreement meeting the requirements of the Delaware General Corporation Law shall have been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; and (d) An executed counterpart of this Agreement, a Certificate of Ownership or any other document filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to section (c) above, shall have been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California. The date and time when the Merger shall become effective as aforesaid, is herein called the "Effective Date of the Merger." 1.3 Effect of the Merger. Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, the separate existence of ADA California shall cease and ADA Delaware, as the Surviving Corporation (i) shall continue to possess all of its assets, rights, powers and property as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger, (ii) shall be subject to all actions previously taken by its and ADA California's Board of Directors, (iii) shall succeed, without other transfer, to all of the assets, rights, powers and property of ADA California in the manner more fully set forth in Section 259 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, (iv) shall continue to be subject to all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of ADA Delaware as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger, and (v) shall succeed, without other transfer, to all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of ADA California in the same manner as if ADA Delaware had itself incurred them, all as more fully provided under the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the General Corporation Law of the State of California. II. CHARTER DOCUMENTS, DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS 2.1 Certificate of Incorporation. The Certificate of Incorporation of ADA Delaware as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger shall continue in full force and effect as the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable law. 2.2 Bylaws. The Bylaws of ADA Delaware as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger shall continue in full force and effect as the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable law. 2.3 Directors and Officers. The directors and officers of ADA Delaware immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation until their successors shall have been duly elected and qualified or until as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation or the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. III. MANNER OF CONVERSION OF STOCK 3.1 ADA California Common Shares. Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, each share of ADA California Common Stock, no par value, issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto shall by virtue of the Merger and without any action by the Constituent Corporations, the holder of such share or any other person, be converted into and exchanged for one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. No fractional share interests of the Surviving Corporation Common Stock shall be issued but shall, instead, be rounded up to the nearest whole number. 2 3 3.2 ADA California Options and Stock Purchase Rights. Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, the Surviving Corporation shall assume and continue the stock option plans (including the 1994 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the 1994 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan) and all other employee benefit plans of ADA California. Each outstanding and unexercised option, or other right to purchase ADA California Common Stock shall become an option, or right to purchase the Surviving Corporation's Common Stock on the basis of one (1) share of the Surviving Corporation's Common Stock for each share of ADA California Common Stock issuable pursuant to any such option, or stock purchase right on the same terms and conditions and at an exercise price per share equal to the exercise price per share applicable to any such ADA California option or stock purchase right at the Effective Date of the Merger. There are no options or purchase rights for Preferred Stock of ADA California. A number of shares of the Surviving Corporation's Common Stock shall be reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options and stock purchase rights equal to the number of shares of ADA California Common Stock so reserved immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger. 3.3 ADA Delaware Common Stock. Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, each share of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of ADA Delaware issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by ADA Delaware, the holder of such shares or any other person, be cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares. 3.4 Exchange of Certificates. After the Effective Date of the Merger, each holder of an outstanding certificate representing shares of ADA California Common Stock may be asked to surrender the same for cancellation to an exchange agent, whose name will be delivered to such holders prior to any requested exchange (the "Exchange Agent"), and each such holder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of the Surviving Corporation's Common Stock into which the surrendered shares were converted as herein provided. Until so surrendered, each outstanding certificate theretofore representing shares of ADA California Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of the Surviving Corporation's Common Stock into which such shares of ADA California Common Stock were converted in the Merger. The registered owner on the books and records of the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent of any such outstanding certificate shall, until such certificate shall have been surrendered for transfer or conversion or otherwise accounted for to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, have and be entitled to exercise any voting and other rights with respect to and to receive dividends and other distributions upon the shares of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation represented by such outstanding certificate as provided above. Each certificate representing Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation so issued in the Merger shall bear the same legends, if any, with respect to the restrictions on transferability as the certificates of ADA California so converted and given in exchange therefore, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of the Surviving Corporation in compliance with applicable laws, or other such additional legends as agreed upon by the holder and the Surviving Corporation. If any certificate for shares of ADA Delaware stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of issuance thereof that the certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer, that such transfer otherwise be proper and comply with applicable securities laws and that the person requesting such transfer pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes payable by reason of issuance of such new certificate in a name other than that of the registered holder of the certificate surrendered or establish to the satisfaction of ADA Delaware that such tax has been paid or is not payable. 3 4 IV. GENERAL 4.1 Covenants of ADA Delaware. ADA Delaware covenants and agrees that it will, on or before the Effective Date of the Merger: 4.1.1 Qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in the State of California. 4.1.2 File any and all documents with the California Franchise Tax Board necessary for the assumption by ADA Delaware of all of the franchise tax liabilities of ADA California. 4.1.3 Take such other actions as may be required by the General Corporation Law of the State of California. 4.2 Further Assurances.

At any time before the Effective Date of the Merger, this Agreement may be terminated and the Merger may be abandoned for any reason whatsoever by the Board of Directors of either ADA California or of ADA Delaware, or of both, notwithstanding the approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of ADA California. 4.4 Amendment.
