WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the willingness of the Parent and the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, certain stockholders of the Company are entering into Tender and Support Agreements with the Parent and the Purchaser (the “Tender and Support Agreements”), pursuant to which, among other things, such stockholders of the Company have agreed to tender all of their shares of Company Common Stock to the Purchaser in the Offer, upon the terms and subject to conditions set forth in the Tender and Support Agreements.

ARTICLE I

THE CASH TENDER OFFER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Commencement of the Offer; Acceptance of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer to purchase any and all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock for a price per share of Company Common Stock, subject to Section 1.1(g), equal to the Offer Price. As promptly as practicable upon the later of: (i) the earliest time as of which the Purchaser is permitted under the Exchange Act to irrevocably accept for purchase shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer and (ii) the earliest time as of which each of the Offer Conditions shall have been satisfied or waived, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) irrevocably accept for purchase all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer. The obligation of the Purchaser to (and of the Parent to cause the Purchaser to)

irrevocably accept for purchase, and purchase, all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the Offer Conditions (and shall not be subject to any other conditions). The Purchaser shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days (calculated as set forth in Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act)) after the Acceptance Time pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, for all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the Offer. All such payments shall be made net to the seller in cash, without interest and subject to Sections 1.1(g) and 2.11.

(b) Expiration Time; Extensions and Amendment.

(i) The Offer shall initially expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on the day that is the twentieth (20th) Business Day after commencement of the Offer (determined in accordance with Rules 14d-1(g)(3) and 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) (such date and time (as such date and time may be extended pursuant to Section 1.1(b)(ii)), the “Expiration Time”). Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Parent and the Purchaser expressly reserve the right to increase the Offer Price and the right to waive any of the Offer Conditions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Parent nor the Purchaser shall (without the prior written consent of the Company in its discretion): (A) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, decrease the Offer Price or decrease the maximum number of shares of Company Common Stock sought to be purchased in the Offer; (B) extend or otherwise change the Expiration Time, except pursuant to Section 1.1(b)(ii); (C) terminate the Offer except pursuant to Section 1.1(f); (D) provide any “subsequent offering period” (or any extension thereof) within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act; (E) amend, change or waive the Minimum Condition or the Offer Conditions set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (g) of Annex I; (F) amend, modify or supplement any Offer Condition or the terms of the Offer in any manner adverse to holders of shares of Company Common Stock or that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect; or (G) impose any condition to the Offer other than the Offer Conditions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company in its discretion, accept for payment or pay for any shares of Company Common Stock if, as a result, the Purchaser would acquire less than the number of shares of Company Common Stock necessary to satisfy the Minimum Condition or any of the Offer Conditions set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (g) of Annex I are not satisfied.

(ii) (A) The Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) extend the scheduled Expiration Time as required by applicable law (including for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC), (B) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived by the Purchaser or the Parent, the Purchaser may, in its discretion (and without the consent of the Company or any other Person), extend the Offer on one (1) or more occasions, for an extension period of up to ten (10) Business Days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; (C) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any Offer Condition (other than solely the Minimum Condition) is not satisfied and has not been waived by the Purchaser or the Parent, upon the Company’s written request, the Purchaser shall, and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to, extend the Offer for successive extension periods specified by the Company (not in excess of ten (10) Business Days per extension), to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied or

(D) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Time, the Minimum Condition is not satisfied but all other Offer Conditions (other than those Offer Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Acceptance Time) have been satisfied or waived, at the written request of the Company, the Purchaser shall, and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to, extend the Offer for successive extension periods specified by the Company (not in excess of ten (10) Business Days per extension), to permit the Minimum Condition to be satisfied, it being understood and agreed that the Purchaser shall not be required to extend the Offer pursuant to this clause (D) for more than thirty (30) Business Days in the aggregate for all such extensions pursuant to this clause (D); provided, however, that none of the foregoing clauses (B), (C) or (D) of this Section 1.1(b)(ii) shall (or shall be deemed to) impair, limit or otherwise restrict in any manner the right of the parties hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Article VIII; provided, further, that in no event shall the Purchaser be required or, without the prior written consent of the Company, permitted to extend the Offer beyond one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on the Outside Date.

(c) Schedule TO and Offer Documents. On the date of commencement of the Offer, the Parent and the Purchaser shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) with respect to the Offer.

Unless the Company Board has effected a Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Offer Documents and any amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC or dissemination to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, and the Parent shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company and their counsel (it being understood that the Company and its counsel shall provide any comments thereon as soon as reasonably practicable). Unless the Company Board has effected a Company Board Recommendation Change, the Parent and the Purchaser shall provide the Company and its counsel with a copy of any written comments or telephonic notification and description of any oral comments the Parent, the Purchaser or their counsel may receive from the SEC with respect to the Offer or any Offer Document promptly after the receipt thereof, shall consult in good faith with the Company and its counsel prior to responding to any such comments, shall provide the Company and its counsel with a copy of any written responses thereto and telephonic notification and description of any oral responses thereto of the Parent or the Purchaser or their counsel, and shall provide the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in the formulation of any response to any such comments (which comments the Parent and the Purchaser shall consider reasonably and in good faith). Subject to the foregoing, the Parent and the Purchaser shall respond to any such comments promptly after they are received.

Each of the Parent and the Purchaser shall promptly correct any information provided by it or on its behalf for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable law.

(e) Provisions of Funds by the Parent. Without limiting the generality of Section 10.14, the Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, at or prior to the Acceptance Time, all of the funds necessary to purchase any and all shares of Company Common Stock that the Purchaser becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer.

(f) Termination of Offer and Return of Tendered Shares.

(g) Adjustments to Offer Price. The Offer Price shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, subdivision, combination, exchange, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Acceptance Time; provided that nothing in this Section 1.1(g) shall be, or be deemed to be, an exception to or otherwise modify the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1.

(h) CVR Agreement. At or prior to the Acceptance Time, the Parent and the Company shall execute and deliver, and the Parent shall ensure that the Rights Agent executes and delivers, the CVR Agreement.

Each of the Company, the Parent and the Purchaser shall promptly correct any information provided by it or on its behalf specifically for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable law, and the Company shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Schedule 14D-9 and to cause the Schedule 14D-9 as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable U.S. federal securities laws.

Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall respond to any such comments promptly after they are received.

(c) Provision of Information for Offer Documents. The Company shall promptly supply to the Parent and the Purchaser in writing, for inclusion in the Offer Documents, all information concerning the Company required under applicable U.S. federal securities laws to be included in the Offer Documents.

Subject to the requirements of applicable laws and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Parent and the Purchaser shall (i) hold in confidence the information contained in any of such labels, listings and files or otherwise furnished to the Parent or the Purchaser pursuant to the foregoing sentence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) until consummation of the Offer, use such information only in connection with the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) if this Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, destroy all copies of such information then in their possession or under their control.

ARTICLE II

THE MERGER

2.1 The Merger; No Vote of Stockholders.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, the Purchaser and the Company shall consummate the Merger.

(b) The Merger shall be governed by and effected under Section 251(h) of the DGCL. The parties hereto shall take all necessary and appropriate actions to cause the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable following (and, if the Acceptance Time occurs on a Business Day, on the same day as, and if the Acceptance Time does not occur on a Business Day, on the first Business Day after) the Acceptance Time, without a vote of stockholders of the Company, in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

2.2 Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, and unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the Company, the Parent and the Purchaser, the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place via the electronic exchange of documents and signatures, as soon as practicable following (and, if the Acceptance Time occurs on a Business Day, on the same day as, and if the Acceptance Time does not occur on a Business Day, on the first Business Day after) the Acceptance Time except if the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 shall not be satisfied or waived as of such date, in which case the Closing shall take place on the first Business Day on which all conditions set forth in Section 7.1 are satisfied or waived, unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the Company and the Parent prior to the Acceptance Time. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

2.3 Effective Time of the Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall cause a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with respect to the Merger to be duly executed and acknowledged in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and filed with the Secretary of State, and the parties shall take all such further actions as may be required by law to make the Merger effective. The Merger shall become effective upon the due filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State and acceptance thereby, or at such subsequent time or date as the Parent and the Company shall, subject to Section 2.1(b), agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

2.4 Effects of the Merger. At the Effective Time, (a) the Purchaser shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate existence of the Purchaser shall cease and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation in the Merger and (b) by virtue of the Merger and without any further action, the certificate of incorporation of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit A, and as so amended and restated shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter further amended in accordance with the DGCL and its terms, subject to Section 6.6(b). In addition, subject to Section 6.6(b), the Parent shall cause the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to be amended and restated in their entirety so that, immediately following the Effective Time, they are identical to the bylaws of the Purchaser as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to the name of the Purchaser therein shall be changed to refer to the name of the Company, and, as so amended and restated, such bylaws shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until further amended in accordance with the DGCL and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 259 of the DGCL and in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and the Purchaser shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all of the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and the Purchaser shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

2.5 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of the Purchaser as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, and the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, in each case, to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

2.6 Conversion of Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent or the holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of the Purchaser:

(a) Capital Stock of the Purchaser. Each share of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Purchaser issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. All shares of Company Common Stock that are (i) held in the treasury of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) irrevocably accepted for purchase in the Offer by the Purchaser and “received” (as such term is defined by Section 251(h)(6)(f) of the DGCL) by the Purchaser or (iii) held by the Parent, the Purchaser or any other wholly owned Subsidiary of the Parent as of both the commencement of the Offer and immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be paid or delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Merger Consideration for Company Common Stock. Subject to Sections 2.7 and 2.6(d), each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(b) and Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of any such shares represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.7. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Dissenting Shares shall not be entitled to receive any CVRs.

(d) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, subdivision, combination, exchange, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time; provided that nothing in this Section 2.6(d) shall be, or be deemed to be, an exception to or otherwise modify the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1.

2.7 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Parent shall designate and appoint Equiniti Trust Company, LLC or another nationally recognized, reputable U.S. bank or trust company (the identity of which shall be subject to the reasonable prior approval of the Company) to act as paying agent for the Offer and the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) and enter into an agreement (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company) with the Paying Agent with respect thereto. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.6(c), for payment through the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 2.7, the Payment Fund. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Parent; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with

capital exceeding $10,000,000,000 (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available); provided, further, that no gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable hereunder and, subject to Section 2.7(e), the Parent shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Payment Fund includes at all times cash sufficient to satisfy the Parent’s obligation to pay the aggregate Cash Amount component of the Merger Consideration under this Agreement. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments (net of any losses) shall be paid to the Parent pursuant to Section 2.7(e). Subject to Section 2.7(e), in the event the Payment Fund is diminished below the level required for the Paying Agent to make prompt cash payments as required under Section 2.7(b), including any such diminishment as a result of investment losses, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, immediately deposit additional cash into the Payment Fund in an amount equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent shall not be required to deposit any funds related to any CVR with the Rights Agent unless and until such deposit is required pursuant to the terms of the CVR Agreement.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) Promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) after the Effective Time, the Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each Person who was a holder of record of any shares of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to Section 2.6(c) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time that were then represented by a Certificate (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall (1) be prepared prior to the Closing, (2) specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) to the Paying Agent and (3) otherwise be in such form and have such provisions as the Parent and the Company may reasonably agree), and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be promptly paid in exchange therefor (x) a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) multiplied by (2) the Cash Amount, and (y) a number of CVRs equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof pursuant to Section 2.7(g)), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Uncertificated Shares as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in respect thereof pursuant to this Article II. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Uncertificated Shares as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, upon receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form with respect to any Uncertificated Share (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), be promptly paid (A) the Cash Amount in respect of such Uncertificated Share and (B) one (1) CVR in respect of such Uncertificated Share, and such Uncertificated Share shall forthwith be cancelled.

(c) Interest; Transfers; Rights Following the Effective Time. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of any shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time or Uncertificated Shares which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration (including the CVR) may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate or Uncertificated Shares is registered, if, in the case of a Certificate, such Certificate is presented to the Paying Agent, and in each case the transferor provides to the Paying Agent (i) all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and (ii) evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.7, all Certificates and all Uncertificated Shares (other than Certificates representing, or Uncertificated Shares that are, Dissenting Shares or shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.6(b)) shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.6(c).

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates and cancellation of Uncertificated Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares, and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, each holder of any shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II, subject to Section 2.7(e).

(e) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the former holders of shares of Company Common Stock represented by Certificates immediately prior to the Effective Time and Uncertificated Shares entitled thereto pursuant to Section 2.6(c) on the date that is one (1) year after the Effective Time (including all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it) shall be delivered to the Parent, upon demand, and any such former holder of any such shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time or any such Uncertificated Shares who has not previously complied with this Section 2.7 in respect thereof shall be entitled to receive only from the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar laws) payment of its claim for the Cash Amount portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares, without interest. Any CVRs that remain unclaimed shall be governed by the CVR Agreement.

(f) No Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent or any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount required to be delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of Company Common Stock at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the property of the Surviving Corporation or its designee, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Paying Agent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such amount, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to deliver a customary indemnity (which may include the posting of a bond in a customary and reasonable amount) against any claim that may be made against the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.8 Company Warrants. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Warrant that is then outstanding and unexercised shall, as a result of and contingent upon the consummation of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any such Company Warrant, be deemed to be exercised in full in a “cashless exercise” pursuant to the terms of such Company Warrant (including Sections 9(c) and 10 thereof). For the avoidance of doubt, any Company Warrant that is exercised prior to the Effective Time shall result in the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of such Company Warrant, and any such shares of Company Common Stock issued upon exercise of such Company Warrant and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.6.

2.9 Company Stock Plans.

(a) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option that is vested pursuant to its existing terms or that vests as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, a “Cash-Out Option”) shall automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Corporation:

(i) if the exercise price of such Cash-Out Option is less than the Cash Amount, (A) an amount of cash, without interest and less applicable Tax withholding, equal to the product of (x) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Cash-Out Option multiplied by (y) the excess of the Cash Amount over the exercise price per share of such Cash-Out Option and (B) one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Cash-Out Option; or

(ii) if the exercise price of such Cash-Out Option is equal to or greater than the Cash Amount but less than the sum of (A) the Cash Amount and (B) the sum of the Net Sales Milestone 1 Payment Amount and the Net Sales Milestone 2 Payment Amount (such sum, the “Aggregate Amount”), one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Cash-Out Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the payment in respect of which CVR shall be as set forth in the CVR Agreement.

(b) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option that is not a Cash-Out Option (each, a “Converted Option”) shall automatically be cancelled and converted into the contingent right to receive from the Surviving Corporation the following, subject to the conditions described in clause (iii) below:

(i) if the exercise price of such Converted Option is less than the Cash Amount, (A) an amount of cash, without interest and less applicable Tax withholding, equal to the product of (x) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Converted Option multiplied by (y) the excess, if any, of the Cash Amount over the exercise price per share of such Converted Option and (ii) one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Converted Option; or

(ii) if the exercise price of such Converted Option is equal to or greater than the Cash Amount but less than the Aggregate Amount, one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Converted Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the payment in respect of which CVR shall be as set forth in the CVR Agreement.

(iii) Subject to the holder’s continued service with Parent and its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) through the vesting dates applicable to the Converted Option under its terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, all payments in respect of such Converted Option pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) shall vest and become payable at the same time as the underlying Converted Option would have vested and become exercisable pursuant to its terms and shall otherwise remain subject to the same terms and conditions (including any “double-trigger” vesting provisions applicable to the Converted Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, as extended as set forth in Section 5.1(o) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) as were applicable to the underlying Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and the terms of the CVR Agreement.

(c) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option with an exercise price that is equal to or greater than the Aggregate Amount shall be cancelled, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect.

(d) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU Award (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and vested pursuant to its existing terms or that vests as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, a “Cash-Out RSU Award”) shall automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Corporation (i) an amount of cash, without interest and less applicable Tax withholding, equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Cash-Out RSU Award multiplied by (B) the Cash Amount and (ii) one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Cash-Out RSU Award.

(e) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU Award (or portion thereof), other than a Cash-Out RSU Award, that is outstanding and is subject solely to a time-based vesting schedule (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Company RSU Award for which the performance period of any applicable performance metric has already ended) and each Company RSU Award (or portion thereof), other than a Cash-Out RSU Award, that is outstanding and is subject to both a time-based and a performance-based vesting schedule (each, a “Converted RSU Award”) shall automatically be cancelled and converted into the contingent right to receive from the Surviving Corporation (i) an amount of cash, without interest and less applicable Tax withholding, equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Converted RSU Award multiplied by (B) the Cash Amount and (ii) one (1) CVR for each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Converted RSU Award. Subject to the holder’s service through the vesting dates applicable to the Converted RSU Award under its terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, all

payments in respect of such Converted RSU Award pursuant to this Section 2.9(e) shall vest and become payable at the same time as the underlying Converted RSU Award would have vested and become settled pursuant to its terms and shall otherwise remain subject to the same terms and conditions (including any “double-trigger” vesting provisions applicable to the Converted RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, as extended as set forth in Section 5.1(o) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) as were applicable to the underlying Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and the terms of the CVR Agreement. In the case of any Company RSU Award subject to both a time-based and performance-based vesting schedule as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Company PSU Awards”), the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company PSU Award shall be determined based on (i) the actual performance determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company Board as of the latest practicable date prior to the Effective Time with respect to the TSR-based Company PSU Awards granted in January 2026 and (ii) the target performance levels for all other Company PSU Awards, and all payments in respect of such Converted RSU Award pursuant to this Section 2.9(e) shall no longer be subject to performance-based vesting as of the Effective Time.

(f) The Parent shall (i) cause the Surviving Corporation to make the payments contemplated by the foregoing Section 2.9(a) and Section 2.9(d) as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the first payroll payment date of the Surviving Corporation) after the Effective Time and (ii) cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain at all times from and after the Effective Time sufficient liquid funds to satisfy its obligations pursuant to Section 2.9(b) and Section 2.9(e). Prior to the Effective Date, the Company and the Parent shall cooperate in good faith to ensure the accuracy of the amounts of Tax withholdings to be withheld with respect to payments contemplated pursuant to Section 2.9(a) and Section 2.9(d), including the Company sharing estimated Tax withholding amounts and supporting workpapers within a reasonable period of time prior to the Effective Time. Payments with respect to the CVRs issued in accordance with this Section 2.9 shall be made in accordance with the relevant provisions of the CVR Agreement and in a manner that complies with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(iv)(A) to the extent required under Section 409A of the Code.

(g) Following the date of this Agreement, the Company ESPP shall continue to operate consistent with its terms as in existence as of the date of this Agreement and this Section 2.9(g). Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company ESPP) shall take any actions as it deems necessary or appropriate to ensure that (i) no Offering or Plan Period (each, as defined in the Company ESPP) under the Company ESPP shall be commenced on or after the date of this Agreement, (ii) beginning on the date of this Agreement, no new participants may join the Company ESPP during the Plan Period in existence under the Company ESPP as of the date of this Agreement (such Plan Period, the “Existing Purchase Period”), (iii) beginning on the date of this Agreement, no participant may increase the amount of his or her payroll deductions with respect to the Existing Purchase Period and (iv) if the Closing Date shall occur prior to the end of a Plan Period, all accumulated participant contributions under the Company ESPP shall be used to purchase shares of Company Common Stock from the Company as close as reasonably practicable to (but in any event prior to) the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP as if such date was the last day of such Plan Period. The Company shall terminate the Company ESPP effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(h) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Stock Plans or the Company ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions as may be necessary to effectuate the treatment set forth in Section 2.9(a) through Section 2.9(g).

2.10 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, but shall be cancelled and any Certificate representing, or Uncertificated Shares that are, Dissenting Shares shall represent only such rights as are granted by the DGCL in respect thereof.

(b) If any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, such shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, without interest, and shall not thereafter be deemed to be Dissenting Shares.

(c) The Company shall give the Parent: (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL that relates to any demand for appraisal; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, withdrawal, notice or instrument. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, withdrawal, notice or instrument.

2.11 Withholding Rights. Each of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or the CVR Agreement (including any payment with respect to any CVR) to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or any other recipient of payments hereunder any amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted by the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder or other recipient in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.12 Further Action. The parties hereto agree to take all necessary action to cause the Merger to become effective in accordance with this Article II as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Offer without a meeting of the Company’s stockholders, as provided in Section 251(h) of the DGCL. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is reasonably determined by the Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of the Purchaser and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and the Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of the Purchaser, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

6.1 No Solicitation.

(a) No Solicitation or Negotiation. Except as set forth in this Section 6.1, until the Specified Time, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, and shall not authorize or permit any of its or their Representatives to, directly or indirectly:

(i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, assist or facilitate any inquiry, proposal or offer, or the making, submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer, that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal;

(ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate or engage in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Parent, the Purchaser or any designee or Representative of the Parent or the Purchaser), or furnish to any Person (other than the Parent, the Purchaser or any designee or Representative of the Parent or the Purchaser) any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or afford to any Person (other than the Parent, the Purchaser or any designee or Representative of the Parent or the Purchaser) access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in any such case in connection with, in response to or with the intent to solicit, initiate, encourage, assist or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer, that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from informing Persons of the existence of the provisions of this Section 6.1; or

(iii) subject to the fiduciary obligations of the Company Board under applicable law, waive or release any Person from or amend any standstill agreement or any standstill provisions of any other contract.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, subject to compliance with Section 6.1(c), if at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) the Company has received a written, bona fide Acquisition Proposal from a Qualified Person, which Acquisition Proposal was received on or after the date of this Agreement and did not result from a breach of this Section 6.1 in any material respect, and (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith

(after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor) that the failure to take the actions described in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 6.1(a) would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law, then the Company may, as applicable: (A) furnish non-public information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Qualified Person (and the Representatives of such Qualified Person), pursuant to a confidentiality agreement that is not materially less favorable to the Company with respect to the confidentiality obligations of the Qualified Person than the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood and agreed that such confidentiality agreement need not include standstill or similar provisions that would restrict the making of, or amendment to, any Acquisition Proposal) and that does not include any provision or other term that would restrict, in any manner, the Company’s ability to satisfy its obligations under this Section 6.1 (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”); provided that any non-public information so furnished (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is provided or made available to Parent promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) after it is provided or made available to such Qualified Person and (B) engage in discussions or negotiations (including solicitation of revised Acquisition Proposals) with such Qualified Person (and the Representatives of such Qualified Person) regarding such Acquisition Proposal.

(b) No Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Prior to the Specified Time:

(i) the Company Board shall not, except as set forth in this Section 6.1(b), (w) withdraw or amend, in a manner adverse to the Parent or the Purchaser, or publicly propose to withdraw or amend, in a manner adverse to the Parent or the Purchaser, the Company Board Recommendation, (x) adopt, approve or recommend, or propose publicly to adopt, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, (y) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Schedule 14D-9 or (z) following the commencement of a tender or exchange offer for shares of Company Common Stock (other than the Offer), fail to recommend against acceptance of such offer by the holders of the Company Common Stock within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement thereof (any action set forth in the foregoing clauses (w), (x), (y) or (z), a “Company Board Recommendation Change”); and

(ii) the Company shall not enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement providing for the consummation of a transaction contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.1(a) entered into in the circumstances referred to in Section 6.1(a)).

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 6.1), at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board may (x) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal or an Intervening Event or (y) enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal and terminate this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.1(f) if: (i) the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor) that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law; (ii) the Company has provided the Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intent to take such action,

describing in reasonable detail the reasons therefor (a “Determination Notice”) (it being understood that the Determination Notice, in and of itself, shall not constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change for purposes of this Agreement), including, if such Determination Notice is in response to a Superior Proposal, the information required pursuant to Section 6.1(c); (iii) if requested by the Parent, the Company shall have, and shall have caused its Representatives to, negotiate in good faith with the Parent (to the extent the Parent desires to so negotiate) during the four (4) Business Day period following the delivery of the Determination Notice with respect to any potential modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that would obviate the basis for taking such action; and (iv) no earlier than the end of such four (4) Business Day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor), after considering the terms of any commitments made by the Parent in writing to amend the terms of this Agreement or the CVR Agreement during such four (4) Business Day period, that the failure to take such action would still be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law (and, in the case of receipt of a Superior Proposal, that such Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal); provided, however, that any material amendment to the terms of any such Superior Proposal (whether or not in response to any changes proposed by the Parent pursuant to clause (iv) above), including any change in the type or amount of per share consideration or purchase price, after which the conditions set forth in clause (i) above remain satisfied, shall require a new Determination Notice and an additional two (2) Business Day period from the date of such Determination Notice during which the terms of clause (iii) above and this clause (iv) shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

(c) Notices to the Parent. The Company shall promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours) following receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any requests for non-public information or inquiries, proposals or offers that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal provide the Parent with (i) written notice thereof, (ii) a summary of the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal (and the material documentation submitted, received or shared by the Person(s) (or any of its or their Representatives) making such Acquisition Proposal, request, inquiry, proposal or offer (including by means of “screen share” or other similar means) in respect thereof), and (iii) the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal (unless, in the case of clause (iii), (A) such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person that is in effect on the date of this Agreement and (B) such Person has not yet entered into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, provided that, promptly upon such Person entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall disclose the identity of such Person to the Parent). In addition, the Company shall keep the Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably prompt basis, of the status and material terms of such Acquisition Proposal (including any amendments thereto) and shall promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours following receipt or delivery thereof) provide Parent with copies of all written Acquisition Proposals, and all draft agreements, draft financing documents and other material documentation relating to any Acquisition Proposal or that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal that, in each case, are either received (including by means of “screen share” or other similar means) by the Company or any of its Representatives from the Person(s) (or any of its or their Representatives) making any such Acquisition Proposal or delivered (including by means of “screen share” or other similar means) by the Company or any of its Representatives to such Person(s) (or any of its or their Representatives).

(d) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder (none of which, in and of itself, shall be deemed to constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change), or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, after consultation with outside counsel, failure to so disclose would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law; provided, however, that this Section 6.1(d) shall not permit the Company Board to make a Company Board Recommendation Change or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) except to the extent permitted by Section 6.1(b).

(e) Cessation of Ongoing Discussions. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall direct its and their Representatives to, cease immediately all discussions and negotiations that commenced prior to the date of this Agreement regarding any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit or modify any of the Company’s rights under the other provisions of this Section 6.1. Within twenty-four (24) hours following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) the Company shall terminate access by any Person (other than the Parent, the Purchaser and their Representatives) and its Representatives to any physical or electronic dataroom relating to any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or discussions or negotiations in respect thereof and (ii) the Company shall request that each Person that has executed a confidentiality agreement relating to any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or discussions or negotiations in respect thereof promptly return to the Company or destroy all documents and materials containing non-public information that has been furnished or made available by the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to such Person or its Representatives pursuant to the terms of such confidentiality agreement.

(f) Representatives. The Company agrees that any violation of the provisions set forth in this Section 6.1 by any Subsidiary of the Company or any of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ respective (i) directors, managers, officers or employees or (ii) other Representatives, in the case of this clause (ii), acting on behalf and at the direction of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall constitute a breach by the Company of this Section 6.1 as if the Company had committed such violation.

6.2 Control of Operations. Without in any way limiting any party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, (a) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give the Parent or the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s operations prior to the Acceptance Time and (b) prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall exercise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ operations.

6.3 Confidentiality; Access to Information.

(a) Except as expressly modified herein, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) During the Pre-Acceptance Period, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) afford to the Parent and its Representatives, solely for purposes of furthering the consummation of the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby or integration planning relating thereto, reasonable access, upon reasonable prior written notice, during normal business hours and in a manner that does not disrupt or interfere with business operations, to all of its properties, books, contracts, records and Representatives as the Parent shall reasonably request, and, during such period, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) promptly make available to the Parent (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws and (ii) all other information in the possession of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries concerning its business, properties and assets as the Parent may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to permit any inspection or other access, or to disclose any information, to the extent (A) without modifying the obligations set forth in Section 6.1, in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, Determination Notice or Company Board Recommendation Change or (B) such inspection, access or disclosure would: (1) result in the disclosure of any trade secrets of any third party, (2) violate any legal requirement or contract or any obligation of the Company with respect to confidentiality or privacy, including under any privacy policy, or (3) jeopardize protections afforded the Company under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine; provided that, in the event that the Company does not permit inspection or access or does not disclose information pursuant to clause (B), the Company shall promptly notify Parent in writing that it is not permitting such inspection or access or not disclosing such information and provide a general description of the nature of the inspection or access not being permitted or the information not being disclosed and the basis therefor and use its reasonable best efforts to provide the applicable inspection, access or information to Parent to the maximum extent possible in a manner that would not result in the disclosure of such trade secrets, violate such legal requirement, contract or obligation or result in the loss of such protections, as applicable. Any such access shall be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures and shall not include any invasive environmental testing. Any information provided under this Section 6.3(b) shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.4 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms hereof, including Section 6.1, Section 6.4(b), Section 6.4(c) and Section 6.4(d), each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to:

(i) take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties hereto in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable;

(ii) as promptly as practicable, obtain any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained by such party (or any of its Subsidiaries) from any Governmental Entity in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (“Governmental Approvals”);

(iii) as promptly as practicable (and with respect to filings under the HSR Act, compliant with Section 6.4(b)), make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger required under (A) the Exchange Act, and any other applicable federal or state securities laws, (B) the HSR Act, any other applicable Antitrust/FDI Laws, and any related governmental request thereunder and (C) any other applicable law;

(iv) contest and resist any action, including any administrative or judicial action, and seek to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) (a “Restrictive Order”), which has the effect of making the Offer or the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Offer or the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(v) obtain from third parties all necessary consents under any material contracts to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party in connection with the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that neither party shall be required to, and the Company shall not without the prior written consent of the Parent, pay any consent or other similar fee, “profit-sharing” or other similar payment or other consideration (including increased rent or other similar payments) or agree to enter into any amendments, supplements or other modifications to (or waivers of) the existing terms of any contract, or provide additional security (including a guaranty) or otherwise assume or incur or agree to assume or incur any Liability, to obtain the consent of any Person under any contract; provided that, if so requested by the Parent, the Company shall agree to any such payment, consideration, amendment, supplement, modification, waiver, security or Liability, in each case, that is conditioned upon the consummation of the Offer and has no effect or Liability in the event that the Offer is not consummated; provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be in breach of this Section 6.4(a)(v) due to its failure to obtain a third-party consent to the extent such failure is caused by the Parent’s refusal to provide the Company with Parent’s prior written consent to take any of the actions set forth in the first proviso of this Section 6.4(a)(v); and

(vi) execute or deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement.

Except for a communication permitted pursuant to Section 6.1(d) or following a Company Board Recommendation Change made in accordance with Section 6.1, the parties hereto shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and submissions contemplated by the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), including providing copies of all such documents to the non-filing Person and its advisors prior to filing and, if requested, accepting reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in connection therewith. Each party hereto shall use its

reasonable best efforts to furnish to the other parties hereto all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any applicable law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 6.4(a) shall limit any obligation under any other provision in this Section 6.4.

(b) Without limiting the generality of this Section 6.4, each of the Parent and the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act (including seeking early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable make any filings required under other applicable Antitrust/FDI Laws. None of the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust/FDI Laws or enter into a timing agreement with any Governmental Entity, without the prior written consent of the other parties.

(c) Subject to the terms hereof (including Section 6.4(d)), the parties hereto shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any government clearances or approvals required for the Closing under any Antitrust/FDI Law, to promptly respond to any government requests for information under any Antitrust/FDI Law, to cause any waiting periods under any applicable Antitrust/FDI Laws to expire or be terminated, and to contest and resist any action, including any legislative, administrative or judicial action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Restrictive Order. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, the parties hereto shall consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to the other parties in advance, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust/FDI Law. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or Governmental Entities reviewing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties hereto will provide each other the opportunity to participate in meetings and other substantive conversations with any such Governmental Entities. The Parent and the Purchaser shall, after reasonable consultation with the Company and consideration in good faith of the views and comments of the Company, control the strategy for obtaining any government clearances or approvals required for the Closing under any Antitrust/FDI Law (including the expiration or termination of all statutory waiting periods in respect thereof), including, in connection with such clearances or approvals, any meetings, submissions and communications (including any negotiations) with any Governmental Entity and any Legal Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Parent shall propose, negotiate, commit to and effect by contract, consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such assets or businesses of, effective as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, or its Subsidiaries, or otherwise take or commit to take any action which it is capable of taking that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the businesses, services or assets of the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries, in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any Restrictive Order, which would have the effect of preventing or delaying the Acceptance Time

beyond the Outside Date; provided, however, that the Parent and its Affiliates shall not be required to (A) propose, negotiate, commit to, agree to, effect or take any action, or agree to any condition or restriction, relating to the business, assets, liabilities, rights, obligations, relationships, results of operations, financial condition or operations of, or otherwise limit in any way or to any extent the full exercise of any rights of ownership of, (1) any of the Parent, the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates (other than, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, but subject to clauses (A)(2) and (B)) or (2) any Company Products set forth in Section 6.4(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, (B) propose, negotiate, commit to, agree to, effect or take any action, or agree to any condition or restriction, relating to the business, assets, liabilities, rights, obligations, relationships, results of operations, financial condition or operations of, or otherwise limit in any way or to any extent the full exercise of any rights of ownership of, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in the case of this clause (B), that, individually or in the aggregate, would or would reasonably be expected to be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (C) enter into any settlement, undertaking, consent decree, stipulation or agreement with any Governmental Entity to do any of the foregoing (each of the items described in the foregoing clauses (A) through (C), a “Burdensome Condition”). The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, propose, negotiate, commit to, agree to, effect or take any action imposing a Burdensome Condition without the prior written consent of the Parent; provided that, if so requested by the Parent, the Company shall agree to take any such action that is conditioned upon the consummation of the Offer.

(e) Except for the transactions contemplated hereby, the Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, or by another manner, any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, if the entering into a definitive agreement relating to (or the consummation of) such acquisition, merger or consolidation would reasonably be expected to (i) impose any material delay in obtaining, or increase the risk of not obtaining, any Governmental Approval or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Entity entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or (iii) materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.5 Public Disclosure. The press release announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be issued only in such form as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Parent. So long as this Agreement is in effect, the Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement with respect to the Offer, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that, without modifying the obligations set forth in Section 6.1, these restrictions shall not apply to any Company communications permitted pursuant to Section 6.1(d) or in connection with a Company Board Recommendation Change; provided further, that each of the Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, may, without such prior written

consent, (a) make any public statement in response to questions from the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences, (b) make internal announcements to employees, (c) make disclosures in registration statements, forms, reports and other documents required to be filed by the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, with the SEC, in the case of each of clauses (a), (b) and (c), to the extent that such statements, announcements and disclosures are consistent in all material respects with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the parties or approved by the parties in accordance with this Section 6.5 or (d) if such party determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is required by applicable law or stock exchange rule or regulation to issue or cause the publication of a press release or otherwise make any public statement, in which event such party shall endeavor, on a basis reasonable under the circumstances, to provide a meaningful opportunity to the other parties to review and comment upon such press release or other public statement in advance and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto.

6.6 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Acceptance Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was an officer, director or manager of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time or, while an officer, director or manager of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is or was serving at the request of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as an officer, director, manager, member, trustee or fiduciary of another Person prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Each Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from the Surviving Corporation (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to advance such expenses) within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Surviving Corporation from the Indemnified Party of a request therefor to the extent such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.6; provided that any Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, to the extent required by the DGCL, to repay such advances if it is determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, under applicable law or otherwise. Without limitation of the foregoing or any other provision of this Section 6.6, the Parent and the Company agree that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto existing as of the date of this Agreement in favor of any Indemnified Party, whether under applicable law, provided in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) or in any indemnification agreement set forth in Section 6.6(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Indemnification Agreements”) between such Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) shall survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect, and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such Indemnified Party.

(b) From the Effective Time through the six (6)-year anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall contain, and the Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to so contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of each Indemnified Party than are set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company (and, with respect to each such Subsidiary, the comparable organizational documents of such Subsidiary) as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement; provided that, unless elected in writing by the Parent pursuant to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Company shall not pay more than the Maximum Premium for such Reporting Tail Endorsement. If the Reporting Tail Endorsement is not available at an aggregate cost not greater than the Maximum Premium, then (i) the Company shall notify Parent in writing of the aggregate cost to obtain the Reporting Tail Endorsement and (ii) Parent shall elect that (A) the Company obtain the Reporting Tail Endorsement for such aggregate cost in excess of the Maximum Premium or (B) the Company obtain as much comparable insurance as can be obtained at a cost up to but not exceeding the Maximum Premium. The Surviving Corporation shall maintain, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the beneficiaries, in full force and effect (and the Parent shall cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation) for six (6) years from the Effective Time, the Reporting Tail Endorsement or such comparable insurance obtained pursuant to this Section 6.6(c) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

(d) In the event the Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or (iii) consummates any division or conversion, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume and succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.6.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.6 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to any Indemnified Party by law, statute, any provision of any certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational document or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

6.7 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) For a period of one year following the Effective Time or such shorter period as a Company Employee remains employed, the Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Company Employee (i) a base salary or wage rate not less than the base salary or wage rate provided to such employee immediately before the Effective Time, (ii) target short-term cash incentive opportunities no less favorable than the target short-term cash incentive opportunities provided to such employee immediately before the Effective Time, (iii) severance benefits determined in accordance with the Company Employee Plans listed on Section 6.7(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and (iv) other employee benefits (excluding any equity-based compensation, defined benefit pensions or post-employment health or welfare benefits, and retention, change in control or other one-off or special payments or benefits) that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to such other employee benefits (subject to the same exclusions) provided to such employee immediately before the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.7 shall limit the obligations of the Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries with respect to compensation, benefits and terms of employment of Company Employees who are covered by collective bargaining, works council or other collective representation agreements.

(b) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under any New Plans, the Parent or its Affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to cause each Company Employee to, subject to applicable law and applicable Tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service by the Company or its Subsidiaries under a comparable Company Employee Plan; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits or provide credit under any defined benefit plan, frozen plan or plan providing long-term incentive compensation, in each case, of the Parent and its Affiliates. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent or its Affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to cause (i) each Company Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is of the same type as the Company Employee Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time and (ii) all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Company Employee to be waived for such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents.

(c) Unless otherwise requested in writing by the Parent no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall take all actions necessary to terminate any Company Employee Plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and containing a Section 401(k) cash or deferred arrangement, such termination to be effective as of the day prior to the Effective Time and contingent upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. The Company shall provide the Parent, prior to the Effective Time, with evidence that such plan(s) have been terminated (the form and substance of which shall be subject to reasonable review and comment by the Parent). If such Company Employee Plan is terminated, the Company Employees shall be eligible to participate, effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, in a 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by the Parent or one of its Subsidiaries (a “Parent 401(k) Plan”). The Company and the Parent shall take any and all actions as may be required, including amendments to the Parent 401(k) Plan, to permit the Company Employees who are then actively employed to make rollover contributions to the Parent 401(k) Plan of “eligible rollover distributions” (with the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in the form of cash, notes (in the case of loans) or a combination thereof.

(d) Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall prohibit the Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries from amending or terminating (in accordance with any applicable terms), or shall be construed as creating, amending or terminating any Employee Benefit Plan, Company Employee Plan, New Plan or any other compensation or benefit plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement sponsored or maintained by the Company, the Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and nothing in this Agreement shall otherwise require the Company, the Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries to create or continue any particular compensation or benefit plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement after the Effective Time or to employ any particular person on any particular terms. Without limiting the generality of Section 10.4, the provisions of this Section 6.7 are solely for the benefit of the parties hereto, and no current or former employee, officer, director, manager or consultant, or any other individual, shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of this Section 6.7.

6.8 State Takeover Laws. If any “fair price,” “business combination” or “control share acquisition” statute or other similar statute or regulation is or may become applicable to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to (a) take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereunder may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and (b) otherwise take all such actions as are reasonably necessary to eliminate or minimize the effects of any such statute or regulation on such transactions.

6.9 Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause any dispositions of Company equity securities (including “derivative securities” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(c) under the Exchange Act)) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company and who is a covered Person of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.10 Rule 14d-10 Matters. Prior to the Acceptance Time and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the compensation committee of the Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held, will approve, as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act, each agreement, arrangement or understanding between the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or their respective Affiliates and any of the officers, directors or employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries that are effective as of the date of this Agreement or are entered into, in accordance with this Agreement, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Acceptance Time pursuant to which compensation is paid to such officer, director or employee and will take all other action reasonably necessary to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor set forth in Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act.

6.11 Security Holder Litigation. The Company shall promptly advise Parent of any litigation commenced after the date of this Agreement against the Company or any of its directors or officers (in their capacity as such) by any stockholder of the Company (on their own behalf or on behalf of the Company) or any holder of the Company’s other securities relating to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably prompt basis regarding the status of and any developments with respect to any such litigation. The Company shall have the right to control the defense and settlement of any such litigation; provided that (a) the Company shall give the Parent the opportunity to participate, at the Parent’s expense, in the defense and settlement of any such litigation, (b) the Company shall consider in good faith the Parent’s advice with respect to such litigation and (c) the Company shall not settle any such litigation without Parent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event of, and to the extent of, any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Section 6.11 and Section 5.1, the provisions of this Section 6.11 shall control.

6.12 Financing; Convertible Senior Notes; Capped Call Transaction; Company Credit Agreement.

(a) During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time and subject to Section 6.12(i), the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ respective officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents and other Representatives to, at the Parent’s sole expense, provide any cooperation that is reasonably necessary and customary and reasonably requested by the Parent to assist the Parent in the arrangement of any new financing for the purpose of financing the Transactions and the fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take all actions as may be required to be taken by it in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, the applicable provisions of the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture and the Capped Call Documentation in connection with the Transactions and any repurchases or conversions of the Convertible Senior Notes occurring as a result of or in connection with the Transactions constituting a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change (each as defined in the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture), and the Company shall provide all notices required by the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture or the Capped Call Documentation in accordance with their terms.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to, subject to Section 6.12(d) and Section 6.12(i), in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, the applicable provisions of the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture and the Capped Call Documentation, (i) at the Parent’s written request, prepare any supplemental indenture contemplated by Section 14.07 of the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture in connection with the Transactions and the consummation thereof and execute and deliver to the Trustee (as defined in the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture) on or prior to the Effective Time such supplemental indenture, which shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Parent, and (ii) take all such further actions, including the delivery of any officers’ certificates required by the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture, as may be necessary to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture in connection with the Transactions.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to provide the Parent and its counsel (i) copies of any notices or other communications, reasonably promptly after the receipt thereof, from the Trustee or holders of Convertible Senior Notes or the counterparties under the Capped Call Transactions, (ii) updates on any Convertible Senior Notes surrendered for conversion prior to the Effective Time reasonably promptly after receipt of any notice related thereto from holders and (iii) reasonable opportunity (and in any event at least two (2) Business Days to the extent reasonably practicable) to review and comment on any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments required to be delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture or Capped Call Documentation prior to the dispatch or making thereof and shall use reasonable best efforts to consult with the Parent or its counsel with respect to such notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, officers’ certificates and other documents and instruments, and the Company shall promptly respond to any reasonable questions from, and reflect any reasonable comments made by, the Parent or its counsel with respect thereto prior to the dispatch or making thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in Section 6.12(c) or this Section 6.12(d) shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay any fees, incur or reimburse any costs or expenses or make any payment in connection with any Convertible Senior Notes prior to the occurrence of the Effective Time.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not amend, modify, supplement or terminate the Convertible Senior Notes Indenture or make (or be deemed to make) any election with respect to any settlement method in connection with any conversions of any Convertible Senior Notes without the prior written consent of the Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(f) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Parent, at the Parent’s written request, to enter into arrangements with the counterparties of each Capped Call Transaction to cause such Capped Call Transaction to be exercised, settled, terminated or cancelled as of the Effective Time and to enter into any documentation required to effect such exercise, settlement, termination or cancellation, it being understood that the calculation and settlement of any amounts payable thereunder shall be payable only in cash and subject to the mutual agreement of the Parent, the Company and the respective counterparties of each Capped Call Transaction. The Company shall not amend, modify or terminate the Capped Call Documentation (including as to the form of consideration of any amount payable in respect of any early settlement) or exercise any right it may have, or enter into any agreement, to terminate, or to trigger an early settlement of, any of the Capped Call Transactions without the prior written consent of the Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that such limitations shall not apply to any modification or adjustment made unilaterally by the counterparty to a Capped Call Transaction pursuant to the terms of the applicable Capped Call Documentation); provided, that the Company agrees to (i) reasonably promptly provide Parent with any notices or other written communication received from any counterparty to the Capped Call Transactions and keep Parent fully informed of all discussions and negotiations with respect to the Capped Call Transactions and give Parent the option to participate (or have its counsel

10.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Annexes, Schedules and Exhibits hereto) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, or any of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company Disclosure Schedule constitutes “facts ascertainable” as such term is used in Section 251(b) of the DGCL and does not form a part of this Agreement for purposes of the DGCL but instead operates on the terms of this Agreement as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms.

10.4 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in Section 6.6 (with respect to which the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and representatives shall be third party beneficiaries), (b) in accordance with Section 261 of the DGCL, prior to the Acceptance Time, for the right of the Company on behalf of the stockholders of the Company (each of which are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the extent required for this clause (b) to be enforceable) to pursue equitable relief as set forth in Section 10.10(b) or, if equitable relief is not sought or granted as a remedy, claims for damages in accordance with this Agreement (including, to the extent proven and awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction, if this Agreement has been terminated, damages based on loss of the economic benefits of the Transactions to the stockholders of the Company, taking into account without limitation the total amount payable to such stockholders under this Agreement); provided that in no event shall any stockholder of the Company be entitled to pursue such equitable relief or such damages directly on his, her or its own behalf, (c) from and after the Acceptance Time, the rights of holders of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Stock Options, Company RSU Awards and Company Warrants to receive the consideration set forth in Article I and Article II and (d) the rights of the Company Related Parties set forth in Section 8.3(d). The rights granted pursuant to clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence shall only be enforceable on behalf of the stockholders of the Company by the Company in its discretion, as agent and representative for the stockholders of the Company, it being understood and agreed that any damages, settlements or other amounts recovered or received by the Company with respect to such claims may, in the Company’s discretion, be (i) distributed, in whole or in part, by the Company to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock of record as of any date determined by the Company or (ii) retained by the Company for the use and benefit of the Company on behalf of its stockholders in any manner the Company deems fit.

10.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.6 Severability. Any term or provision (or part thereof) of this Agreement that is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions (or parts thereof) hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision (or part thereof) in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision (or part thereof) hereof is invalid or unenforceable, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect, and the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term (or part thereof).

10.7 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile, an electronic scan delivered by electronic mail or DocuSign or another electronic signature platform), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party hereto. No summary of this Agreement prepared by any party shall affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the State of Delaware.

10.10 Remedies.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein (including Section 8.3(d)), any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Person will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Person, and the exercise by a Person of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) Irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, as money damages or other legal remedies, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages, including if any party hereto fails to take any action required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or the Parent or the Purchaser, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the courts described in Section 10.11 without proof of damages or otherwise to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement, in each case without posting a bond or other security and in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled. The parties hereto agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, or not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law.

10.11 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court or other state court sitting in New Castle County in the State of Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court, (c) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (d) agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any other court. Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Person with respect thereto. Any party hereto may make service on another party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 10.2. Nothing in this Section 10.11, however, shall affect the right of any Person to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

10.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

The inclusion of any information in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material, has resulted in or would result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or is outside the ordinary course of business.

10.14 Purchaser Obligations. The Parent agrees to take all action necessary to cause the Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, and, during the period between the Acceptance Time and the Effective Time, the Company, to perform all of its agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement.

“Commercially Diligent Efforts” means the level of efforts of Parent and its Subsidiaries to operate the Business in the ordinary course of business and in a good-faith, diligent and sustained manner, without undue interruption, pause or delay, including a level of effort and expenditure of resources that is consistent with the level of efforts that a company of comparable size, nature and resources as those of the Parent would use to conduct the Business, including by maintaining an appropriate sales force/work force in the Business, with the Parent permitted to take into account the nature of efforts and cost required for the undertaking at stake and all factors reasonably deemed relevant to such operation, including the time and cost to commercialize the Product, product safety, regulatory requirements, the competitiveness of alternative third-party products, pricing, reimbursement, future revenue prospects, actual or reasonably anticipated profitability, potential third-party liability and litigation risk, and technical, commercial, legal, scientific and medical factors, in each case, based on then-existing and reasonably anticipated future conditions; provided, that such level of efforts and resources shall be determined without taking into account the fact of or the cost of any potential Milestone Payment Amounts payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

The initial Holders shall be determined pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, and a list of the initial Holders shall be furnished to the Rights Agent by or on behalf of Parent in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof.

Section 2.2 Nontransferable. The CVRs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner disposed of or Transferred, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer. The foregoing restrictions shall apply notwithstanding that certain of the CVRs will be held through DTC. Any attempted sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, disposition or Transfer of CVRs, in whole or in part, in violation of this Section 2.2 shall be void ab initio and of no effect. The CVRs will not be listed on any quotation system or traded on any securities exchange.

Section 2.3 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.

(a) The CVRs will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

(b) The Rights Agent will keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the purpose of registering CVRs and Transfers of CVRs as herein provided. The CVR Register will (i) with respect to holders of Company Common Stock that hold such shares in book-entry form through DTC immediately prior to the Effective Time, reflect one position for Cede & Co (as nominee of DTC) representing all the shares of Company Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive the Cash Amount in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, (ii) with respect to (A) holders of Company Common Stock that hold such Company Common Stock in certificated form immediately prior to the Effective Time that were converted into the right to receive the Cash Amount in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon delivery to

the Rights Agent (or Paying Agent, as applicable) by each such holder of the applicable stock certificates, together with a validly executed letter of transmittal and such other customary documents as may be reasonably requested by the Rights Agent (or Paying Agent, as applicable), in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (B) holders of Company Common Stock who hold such Company Common Stock in book-entry form through the Company’s transfer agent immediately prior to the Effective Time, (C) holders of Company Equity Awards who are entitled to receive CVRs pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and (D) holders of Company Warrants who are entitled to receive CVRs pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, in each case of clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D), reflect the applicable number of CVRs to which each such holder is entitled pursuant to the Merger Agreement (other than, in the case of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii)(A) and (ii)(B), holders of shares cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(b) of the Merger Agreement and Dissenting Shares). The Rights Agent will have no responsibility whatsoever directly to the street name holders with respect to Transfers of CVRs unless and until such CVRs are Transferred into the name of such street name holders in accordance with Section 2.2 of this Agreement. With respect to any payments to be made under Section 2.4 below with respect to CVRs held through DTC, the Rights Agent will accomplish the payment in respect of such CVRs by sending one lump payment to DTC. The Rights Agent will have no responsibilities whatsoever with regard to the distribution of payments by DTC to the Holders of such CVRs.

(c) Subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to Transfer a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument of Transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Rights Agent pursuant to its guidelines, duly executed by the Holder thereof, the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative duly authorized in writing, or the Holder’s survivor (with written documentation evidencing such person’s status as the Holder’s survivor), and setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances relating to the Transfer. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent will, subject to its reasonable determination that the Transfer instrument is in proper form and the Transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the provisions of Section 2.2), register the Transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register and notify such Holder of the same. No service charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer of a CVR, but the Rights Agent may require payment by a Holder to the applicable Governmental Entity of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer, stamp or other similar Tax or governmental charge that is imposed in connection with any such registration of Transfer. The Rights Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any action under any section of this Agreement that requires the payment by a Holder of a CVR of applicable Taxes or charges unless and until the Rights Agent is reasonably satisfied that all such Taxes or charges have been paid or that such Taxes or charges are not applicable. All duly Transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register will be the valid obligations of the Parent and will entitle the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement as those held immediately prior to the Transfer by the transferor. No Transfer of a CVR will be valid until registered in the CVR Register.

100

(d) A Holder may make a written request to the Rights Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. The written request must be duly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent will promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register.

Section 2.4 Payment Procedures.

(a) If any Milestone is achieved, then, in each case, on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) Business Days following the achievement of such Milestone, Parent shall (i) deliver to the Rights Agent a written notice (each, a “Milestone Notice”) indicating that the corresponding Milestone was achieved and the corresponding Milestone Payment Amount due, along with an Officer’s Certificate certifying the same, which Milestone Notice shall include the Net Sales Statement for the applicable Calendar Year and (ii) duly deposit or cause to be deposited with the Rights Agent, within three (3) Business Days of the delivery of the Milestone Notice, cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the Rights Agent (or to the Company or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate in the case of payments with respect to Equity Award CVRs that will be paid through the Company’s or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate’s payroll system), equal to the aggregate amount necessary to pay the applicable Milestone Payment Amount to all Holders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (subject to any amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.4(d) below). Such amounts shall be considered paid if on such date the Rights Agent (or the Company or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate in the case of payments with respect to Equity Award CVRs that will be paid through the Company’s or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate’s payroll system) has received in accordance with this Agreement money sufficient to pay all Milestone Payment Amounts in respect of such Milestone then due in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) The Rights Agent will promptly, and in any event within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of a Milestone Notice, send each Holder at its registered address a copy of the Milestone Notice (such date on which the Rights Agent sends such copy, a “Milestone Payment Date”). At the time the Rights Agent sends a copy of the Milestone Notice to the Holders, the Rights Agent will also pay the applicable Milestone Payment Amount to each of the Holders (subject to any amounts deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.4(d) below) (i) by check mailed to the address of each Holder as reflected in the CVR Register as of the close of business on the last Business Day prior to such Milestone Payment Date or (ii) with respect to any Holder who has provided the Rights Agent wiring instructions in writing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified on such instructions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Rights Agent shall have no responsibility whatsoever with respect to any Milestone Payment Amount to Holders in respect of Equity Award CVRs that will be paid through the Company’s or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate’s payroll system.

101

(c) The Parent shall cause the applicable Milestone Payment Amount payable with respect to Equity Award CVRs (determined in accordance with Section 2.9 of the Merger Agreement) held by current or former employees of the Company or its Affiliates to be paid to the applicable Holder through the Surviving Corporation’s or its or the Parent’s applicable Affiliate’s payroll system or any successor payroll system no later than the second regular payroll date of such applicable payroll system following the later of (i) the applicable Milestone Payment Date and (ii) in the case of Equity Award CVRs in respect of Company Equity Awards that are unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and that do not vest by their terms as a result of the occurrence of the Effective Time), the applicable vesting date, but in any event no later than the date that is sixty (60) days following the later of the date on which the Milestone is achieved or the applicable vesting date, subject to Section 2.4(d) of this Agreement and Section 2.9 of the Merger Agreement. For clarity, no payment shall be made on an Equity Award CVR in respect of Company Equity Awards unless and until the Company Equity Award (or any assumed or converted award in respect of such Company Equity Award) has vested.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Merger Agreement or this Agreement, the Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Rights Agent and any other applicable withholding agent (and their applicable Affiliates) shall be entitled to deduct or withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any Milestone Payment Amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder, or any other applicable Tax law, as may be determined by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Rights Agent or any other applicable withholding agent (or their applicable Affiliates), as applicable. The Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Rights Agent and any other applicable withholding agent (or their applicable Affiliates) shall reasonably cooperate in good faith with any Person (other than a Holder of Equity Award CVRs who is a current or former employee of the Company or its Affiliates) in respect of which such deduction or withholding is to be made to reduce or eliminate any such withholding prior to withholding any amounts payable to such Person. With respect to Holders of Equity Award CVRs who are current or former employees of the Company or its Affiliates, any such withholding may be made, or caused to be made, by the Parent through the Surviving Corporation’s (or any of the Parent’s applicable Affiliate’s) payroll systems. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid, and as soon as practicable after any payment of such taxes by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Rights Agent (or their applicable Affiliates), as applicable, the Parent shall deliver (or shall cause the Surviving Corporation, the Rights Agent or their or the Parent’s applicable Affiliates to deliver) to the Person (other than a Holder of Equity Award CVRs who is a current or former employee of the Company or its Affiliates) to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the applicable taxing authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other reasonably acceptable evidence of such payment. The parties intend that (i) each payment provided under this Agreement with respect to an Equity Award CVR is a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations and (ii) each Equity Award CVR is exempt from or in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, and this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in accordance therewith. The parties intend to treat each Milestone as a valid performance

102

condition and each respective Milestone Payment Amount as subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture as defined under Section 409A of the Code. None of the parties to this Agreement or any of their Affiliates nor any of their respective employees, directors or representatives shall have any liability to a Holder or transferee or other Person in respect of Section 409A of the Code.

(e) Any portion of any Milestone Payment Amount that remains undistributed to the Holders one (1) year after an applicable Milestone Payment Date will be delivered by the Rights Agent to the Parent, upon demand, and any Holder will thereafter look only to the Parent for payment of the applicable Milestone Payment Amount, without interest.

(f) None of the Parent, the Company, the Rights Agent or any of their Affiliates will be liable to any Person in respect of any Milestone Payment Amounts delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar legal requirement. If, despite reasonable best efforts by the Rights Agent to deliver a Milestone Payment Amount to the applicable Holder pursuant to the Rights Agent’s customary unclaimed funds procedures, such Milestone Payment Amount has not been paid immediately prior to such date on which such Milestone Payment Amount would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, such Milestone Payment Amount will, to the extent permitted by applicable legal requirements, become the property of the Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. In addition to and not in limitation of any other indemnity obligation herein, the Parent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Rights Agent with respect to any liability, penalty, cost or expense the Rights Agent may incur or be subject to in connection with transferring such property to the Parent, unless such loss has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be a result of the Rights Agent’s willful or intentional misconduct (including willful breach), bad faith, fraud or gross negligence.

(g) The Rights Agent shall be responsible for information reporting required under applicable legal requirements with respect to the CVRs (other than Equity Award CVRs held by current or former employees of the Company or its Affiliates), including reporting the Holder’s receipt of such CVRs and any Milestone Payment Amounts hereunder on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-B or other applicable form. The Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Rights Agent to provide any information reasonably necessary for the Rights Agent to carry out its obligations in this Section 2.4(g).

Section 2.5 No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in the Parent.

(a) The CVRs will not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest will not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs to any Holder.

103

(b) Without limiting any rights of the Rights Agent or any of the Holders under this Agreement or with respect to the CVRs (including the right to payments thereunder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), the CVRs will not represent any equity or ownership interest in the Parent or in any constituent company to the Merger or any of their respective Affiliates (including the Company). The sole right of each Holder to receive property hereunder is the right to receive the Milestone Payment Amounts, if any, when and if due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof. A CVR shall not constitute a security of any Person.

(c) Neither the Parent or the Company nor any of their respective directors or officers will be deemed to have any fiduciary or similar duties to any Holder by virtue of this Agreement or the CVRs.

Section 2.6 Holding of Funds. All funds received by the Rights Agent under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by the Rights Agent in the performance of its services hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by the Rights Agent as agent for the Parent and deposited in one or more segregated bank accounts to be maintained by the Rights Agent in its name as agent for the Parent. The Funds shall not be used for any purpose other than to pay the Milestone Payment Amounts under this Agreement. The Funds shall be invested by the Rights Agent as directed by the Parent; provided, that such investments shall be (a) in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, or (b) in United States government or United States treasury money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of acquisition or a combination of the foregoing and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months; provided, further, that, any interest or income produced by such investments shall be the property of the Parent; provided, further, that no such investments or losses therefrom will relieve the Parent or the Rights Agent of the obligation to make payments when required under this Agreement. To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Funds diminish for other reasons below the level required to make prompt payment of any Milestone Payment Amount due under this Agreement, the Parent shall promptly replace or restore the portion of the Funds lost through investments or other events so as to ensure that the Funds are maintained at a level sufficient to make such payment. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax purposes, the Parent shall be treated as the owner of the Funds prior to the time they are distributed pursuant to this Agreement. The Rights Agent shall report with respect to income earned on the Funds to the IRS or other taxing authority as income of the Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at the end of each calendar quarter and on the date of the final distribution of the Funds, the Rights Agent shall distribute to Parent an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of any interest and other income from the investment of the Funds earned during such period.

Section 2.7 Ability to Abandon CVR. A Holder may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon all of such Holder’s remaining rights represented by CVRs by Transferring such CVR to the Parent or a person nominated in writing by the Parent (with written notice thereof from the Parent to the Rights Agent) without consideration in compensation therefor, and such rights will be cancelled, with the Rights Agent being promptly notified in writing by the Parent of such Transfer and cancellation. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prohibit the Parent or any of its Affiliates from offering to acquire or acquiring CVRs, in private transactions or otherwise, for consideration, and consummating any such acquisition and related Transfer, in each case in its sole discretion. Any CVRs acquired by the Parent or any of its Affiliates shall be automatically deemed extinguished and no longer outstanding for purposes of this Agreement. The Rights Agent shall update the CVR Register to reflect any abandonment or acquisition of CVRs described in this Section 2.7.

Section 4.6 Audits.

(a) If, as of December 31, 2027, December 31, 2028, December 31, 2029, December 31, 2030 or December 31, 2031, either of the Net Sales Milestone 1 or the Net Sales Milestone 2 has not been attained, then, within thirty (30) Business Days following such date, Parent shall deliver to the Rights Agent a written notice (an “Expiry Notice”) stating that such Milestone was not attained as of such applicable date and that the applicable Milestone Payment Amount is not payable hereunder to the Holders of such CVR as of such applicable date. The Rights Agent shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of any Expiry Notice, send each Holder at its registered address a copy of such Expiry Notice.

(b) During the ninety (90) day period following the delivery of any Expiry Notice in accordance with Section 4.6(a), upon the reasonable written request of the Acting Holders, the Parent shall provide the Acting Holders with the Net Sales Statement for the applicable Calendar Year and shall make its financial personnel reasonably available to a designated representative of the Acting Holders to discuss and answer the Acting Holders’ questions regarding the Net Sales Statement; provided that (x) such Acting Holders enter into customary confidentiality agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Parent with respect to the confidential information of the Parent or its Subsidiaries to be furnished pursuant to this Section 4.6 and (y) such confidential information or access shall not be required to be provided to the extent that such confidential information or access would reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or violate any applicable law; provided, that the Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to implement appropriate and mutually agreeable measures to permit the disclosure of such information in a manner to remove the basis for the non-disclosure to the greatest extent reasonably possible, including by arrangement of appropriate clean room procedures, redaction of text from documents or entry into a customary joint defense agreement with respect to any information to be so provided. The Acting Holders shall have the right to deliver to the Parent and the Rights Agent within ninety (90) days of the delivery of any Expiry Notice to the Holders (each period, a “Review Request Period”) a notice disputing any items set forth in the applicable Net Sales Statement delivered pursuant to this Section 4.6(b) once per Expiry Notice (such

109

notice, a “Dispute Notice”), and thereafter the Acting Holders and the Parent shall, in good faith, try to resolve any items under dispute as set forth in the Dispute Notice. If the Acting Holders and the Parent fail to agree on the item(s) under dispute within fifteen (15) Business Days after the Acting Holders deliver the Dispute Notice to the Parent and the Rights Agent, the Parent and the Company shall permit, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to permit, the Independent Accountant to have access during normal business hours to the records of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of the Business as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Net Sales Statement and shall furnish, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to furnish, to the Independent Accountant such access, records, work papers and other documents and information as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request and as may be reasonably necessary to audit the Net Sales Statement and the determination of whether the applicable Milestone was achieved (subject to customary confidentiality agreements and access letters, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Parent and excluding information or access which would reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or violate any applicable law; provided, that the Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to implement appropriate and mutually agreeable measures to permit the disclosure of such information in a manner to remove the basis for the non-disclosure to the greatest extent reasonably possible, including by arrangement of appropriate clean room procedures, redaction of text from documents or entry into a customary joint defense agreement with respect to any information to be so provided). The Independent Accountant shall be instructed to come to a final determination with respect to those items set forth in a Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days following the engagement of such Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall act only as an expert and not as an arbitrator and shall be charged to come to a final determination in accordance with the terms of this Agreement regarding the calculation of Annual Net Sales with respect to only those items set forth in the Dispute Notice that the parties disagree on and submit to it for resolution. All other items in the applicable Net Sales Statement that the parties do not submit, prior to the end of the Review Request Period, to the Independent Accountant for resolution shall be deemed to be agreed by the parties and the Independent Accountant shall not be charged with calculating or validating those agreed upon items. The Independent Accountant shall disclose to the Parent and the Acting Holders any matters directly related to their findings to the extent necessary to verify the accuracy or completeness of the applicable Net Sales Statement. The Independent Accountant shall provide the Parent with a copy of all disclosures made to the Acting Holders concurrently with each such disclosures to the Acting Holders and shall provide the Acting Holders with a copy of all disclosures made to the Parent concurrently with each such disclosures to the Parent. The fees charged by the Independent Accountant shall be allocated to and borne by (i) Parent, based on the percentage that the portion of the disputed items determined by the Independent Accountant to be in favor of the Acting Holders bears to the amount actually disputed by the Acting Holders, on the one hand, and (ii) the Acting Holders, based on the percentage that the portion of the disputed items determined by the Independent Accountant to be in favor of Parent bears to the amount actually disputed by the Acting Holders, on the other.

110

(c) If the Independent Accountant concludes that a Milestone was achieved as of the applicable date in accordance with the terms hereof and the applicable Milestone Payment Amounts were not paid to the Rights Agent, the Parent shall pay or caused to be paid to the Rights Agent such applicable Milestone Payment Amounts within thirty (30) calendar days of the date the Independent Accountant delivers its final written report to the Acting Holders and the Parent. The decision of the Independent Accountant shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parent and the Holders, shall be non-appealable and shall not be subject to further review, absent manifest error.

(d) If, upon the expiration of a Review Request Period, the Acting Holders have not provided a Dispute Notice to the Parent and the Rights Agent in accordance with this Section 4.6, the calculations set forth in the applicable Net Sales Statement and the determination in the applicable Expiry Notice shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Holders.

(e) Each person seeking to receive information from the Parent in connection with an audit pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall enter into, and shall cause its accounting firm to enter into, a reasonable and mutually satisfactory confidentiality agreement with the Parent or any controlled Affiliate (including the Surviving Corporation) obligating such party to retain all such information disclosed to such party in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement.

Section 4.7 Change of Control; Sale of the Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Parent nor the Company, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, may enter into an agreement providing for, or consummate a Change of Control or a Sale of the Business prior to the termination of this Agreement or the payment of all Milestone Payment Amounts in accordance with this Agreement, whichever occurs earlier, without the prior written consent of the Acting Holders, unless either (at the Parent’s option) (x) the Person acquiring or succeeding to the Parent or the Company (if applicable pursuant to the structure of such Change of Control or Sale of the Business) in connection with such Change of Control or Sale of the Business (i) is a Qualified Buyer and (ii) assumes all of the Parent’s and the Company’s obligations, duties and covenants under this Agreement effective as of the effective time of such Change of Control or Sale of the Business, as applicable, and in an instrument supplemental hereto that is executed and delivered by such Person to the Rights Agent or (y) the Parent and the Company retain their obligations, duties and covenants under this Agreement following such Change of Control or Sale of the Business. Upon or prior to the consummation of any such Change of Control or Sale of the Business, the Parent or the Company will deliver a notice to the Rights Agent (and the Rights Agent will promptly, and in any event within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such notice, send each Holder at its registered address a copy of such notice) stating that such Change of Control or Sale of the Business, as applicable, complies with this Section 4.7. Upon consummation of a Change of Control or Sale of the Business in accordance with this Section 4.7 in which a Qualified Buyer assumes all of the Parent’s and the Company’s obligations, duties and covenants hereunder, neither the Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation with respect to any Milestone Payment Amounts or otherwise hereunder, and the Parent and its Affiliates shall be fully relieved from any such obligations. If the Company is the Party that undergoes the Change of Control or is sold in a transaction that constitutes a Sale of the Business, and prior to such sale the Company has assumed all of the Parent’s obligations hereunder, the Parent and the Company shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 4.7 (pursuant to clause (x)).

111

Section 4.8 Intended Tax Treatment. Except to the extent any portion of any Milestone Payment Amount is required to be treated as imputed interest under applicable law (including Section 483 of the Code), the parties hereto agree to treat (a) the CVRs (other than any Equity Award CVRs, or CVRs otherwise received as compensation) for all U.S. federal and applicable state and local Tax purposes as additional consideration for or in respect of the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (b) any Milestone Payment Amounts received in respect of such CVRs as amounts realized on the disposition of the applicable CVRs and (c) the Equity Award CVRs for all U.S. federal and applicable state and local Tax purposes as additional compensation for or in respect of such Company Equity Awards, as applicable, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and none of the parties hereto will take any position to the contrary on any Tax Return, any other filing with a Governmental Entity related to Taxes or for other Tax purposes except as otherwise required by applicable law. The Parent or the Rights Agent, as applicable, shall report imputed interest on the CVRs pursuant to Section 483 of the Code, except as required by applicable law.

Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders, such notice will be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) (i) with respect to CVRs held through DTC if in writing and transmitted through the facilities of DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures or (ii) mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the CVR Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

Section 6.3 Parent Successors and Assigns. The Parent may assign, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any other party, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to (a) one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Parent but only for so long as any such entity remains a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent or (b) an acquiror in connection with a Change of Control of the Parent or a Sale of the Business in accordance with Section 4.7 of this Agreement (each such assignee in the preceding clauses (a) and (b), an “Assignee”); provided, that in the case of clause (a) and, only to the extent in accordance with clause (y) of Section 4.7, clause (b), the Parent remains jointly and severally liable. Any such Assignee may thereafter assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder in the same manner as the Parent pursuant to this Section 6.3. This Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parent’s successors. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement in violation of this Section 6.3 shall be void and of no effect.

Section 6.4 Benefits of Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, will give to any person (other than the Rights Agent, the Parent, the Parent’s successors and assignees and the Holders) any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the Rights Agent, the Parent, the Parent’s successors and assignees and the Holders. The rights of Holders are limited to those expressly provided in this Agreement which shall be exercised only by the Acting Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Holder may at any time agree to renounce, in whole or in part, whether or not for consideration, such Holder’s rights under this Agreement by written notice to the Rights Agent and the Parent, which notice, if given, shall be irrevocable, and the Parent may, in its sole discretion, at any time offer consideration to the Holders in exchange for their agreement to irrevocably renounce their rights, in whole or in part, hereunder.

115

Section 6.5 Limitations on Suits by Holders. No individual Holder or group of Holders shall have any right under this Agreement to commence proceedings under or with respect to this Agreement, and such rights may only be exercised by the Acting Holders in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, this Agreement. Any action brought by the Acting Holders shall be subject to Section 6.6 and Section 6.9, the terms of which shall apply to such Acting Holders, as applicable, and such action mutatis mutandis. The Acting Holders shall have the right, on behalf of all Holders, by virtue of or under any provision of this Agreement, to institute any action at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise upon or under or with respect to this Agreement. In any such action, the Acting Holders shall be deemed to represent all Holders. Amounts collected by the Acting Holders in any action in which the Acting Holders are deemed to represent all Holders shall be paid first to reimburse the legal fees and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Acting Holders in connection with such action and the balance shall be distributed to all Holders. The Acting Holders, in acting pursuant to this Section 6.5 on behalf of all Holders, shall have no liability to any other Holders for any such actions.

Section 6.6 Governing Law. This Agreement, the CVRs and any action (whether at law, in contract or in tort) that may directly or indirectly be based upon, relate to or arise out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 6.7 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application of such provision, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 6.8 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan delivered by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart.

Section 6.9 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Each party hereto expressly submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court of the United

116

States of America within the State of Delaware) (the “Chosen Courts”), in the event any dispute between the parties hereto (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) expressly waives any claim of lack of personal jurisdiction or improper venue and any claims that such courts are an inconvenient forum with respect to such a claim, and (c) agrees that it shall not bring any claim, action or proceeding against any other parties hereto relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier service, postage prepaid, to its address set forth in Section 6.1, such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing.

(b) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM, ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.9.

Section 6.10 Termination. This Agreement will be terminated and of no force or effect, the parties hereto will have no liability hereunder, and no payments will be required to be made, upon the earliest to occur of (a) the complete payment in full of all Milestone Payment Amounts required to be paid under the terms of this Agreement, (b) the delivery to the Rights Agent of a written notice of termination duly executed by the Parent and Holders of seventy-five percent (75%) of the outstanding CVRs and (c) if (and only if) Parent has complied with its obligations under Section 4.6 in all material respects, June 30, 2032; provided that, in the case of the foregoing clause (c) if there is any pending Dispute Notice or ongoing action (whether in contract or in tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement properly brought hereunder by the Acting Holders prior to the termination hereof, this Agreement will not terminate until there is (i) in the case of a Dispute Notice, a final decision of the Independent Accountant pursuant to Section 4.6 or a settlement between the Parent and the Acting Holders and payment by the Parent to the Rights Agent of any applicable Milestone Payment Amounts determined by the Independent Accountant or such settlement, as applicable, to be payable to the Holders or (ii) in the case of such an ongoing action, a final non-appealable order on such action from a court of competent jurisdiction or a settlement between the Parent and the Acting Holders.

Section 6.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Merger Agreement (including the schedules, annexes and exhibits thereto) contain the entire understanding of the parties hereto and thereto with reference to the transactions and matters contemplated hereby and thereby and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, among the parties with respect hereto and thereto. If and to the extent that any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or conflicts with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement will govern and be controlling with respect to CVR matters only and the Merger Agreement shall govern and be controlling with respect to all matters unrelated to CVRs.

117

Section 6.12 Obligation of the Parent. The Parent shall cause the Company to duly perform, satisfy and discharge each of the covenants, obligations and liabilities applicable to the Company under this Agreement. The Parent and the Company shall be jointly and severally liable for the performance and satisfaction of each of their respective covenants, obligations and liabilities hereunder. As material inducement to the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual performance of all obligations of the Parent hereunder, including the Parent’s obligations under Section 2.4 and Section 4.2, in each case when, as and if due (collectively, the “Company Guaranteed Obligations”). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby expressly waives any and all rights and defenses arising by reason of any applicable laws other than any defenses available to the Parent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company expressly waives: (i) notice of the acceptance by the Holders of this guarantee; (ii) notice of the non-performance of all or any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and all other notices whatsoever, in respect of any or all of the Company Guaranteed Obligations (except notices required to be given hereunder); and (iv) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies, including the failure or delay in exercising remedies against the Parent by the Holders which in any manner affects any of its rights to proceed against the Company, other than any claims or defenses available to the Parent. The Company agrees that this guaranty is one of payment, not merely of collection and not merely that of a surety, and that the Acting Holders shall not be required to pursue any right or remedy they may have against the Parent under this Agreement or otherwise or to first commence any proceeding or obtain any judgment against the Parent in order to enforce this Section 6.12. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.12 shall survive for so long as the obligations of the Parent hereunder are outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.12, this Section 6.12 shall be enforceable only by the Acting Holders. Nothing set forth in this Section 6.12 shall expand the obligations of the Parent hereunder or the rights of the Acting Holders hereunder.
