Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place on the date that is three Business Days after satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all conditions to the Merger set forth in Article 7 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of such conditions), unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The Closing will take place by electronic exchange of documents.

Section 2.02 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date, Parent and the Company shall cause a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed and delivered to the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware for filing as provided in the DGCL.

(b) The Merger shall become effective on such date and at such time when the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with and accepted by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time and date as may be agreed by the parties hereto in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

(c) At the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the DGCL, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and the separate corporate existence of the Company, with all its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises, shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and specified in the DGCL.

Section 2.03 Conversion of Shares. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any capital stock of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company:

(a) except as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time by Parent and a holder of Company Common Stock, and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(b), Section 2.05 or, with respect to Company RSAs, Section 2.06(c), each share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive $13.80 in cash without interest (with respect to each such share of Company Common Stock, the “Per Share Amount”, and such consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of any such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Agreement;

(b) each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; and

(c) each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into and become one fully paid, nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.04 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the Merger (the “Payment Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging for the Merger Consideration certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”); provided, however, that any references herein to “Certificates” are deemed to include references to book-entry account statements relating to the ownership of shares of Company Common Stock. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Payment Agent the aggregate per share Merger Consideration (the “Payment Fund”). To the extent such fund diminishes for any reason below the level required to make prompt payment of the Merger Consideration, Parent shall promptly replace or restore, or cause to be replaced or restored, the lost portion of such fund so as to ensure that it is, at all times, maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Payment Agent as directed by Parent; provided that (i) no such investment or losses thereon shall relieve Parent from making the payments required by this Article 2 or affect the amount of Merger Consideration payable hereunder, and following any losses Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Payment Agent in the amount of any such losses, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States

with maturities of no more than 30 days, or guaranteed by, and backed by the full faith and credit of, the United States. Any and all interest or other amounts earned with respect to such funds shall become part of the Payment Fund. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Payment Agent, in connection with the exchange of shares of Company Common Stock and the payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, and in any event no later than three Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent shall send, or shall cause the Payment Agent to send, to each record holder of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.03(a) a letter of transmittal and instructions in forms reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery or transfer of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates pursuant to Section 2.08 to the Payment Agent) for use in such exchange). Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate, within two Business Days, upon (i) surrender to the Payment Agent of a Certificate, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of shares of Company Common Stock, and, in each case, delivery to the Payment Agent of such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Payment Agent. Until so surrendered or transferred, each such Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of such Certificate.

(c) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Payment Agent any transfer Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Payment Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates 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 Certificate and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article 2.

(e) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the holder’s compliance with the replacement requirements established by the Payment Agent, including, if necessary, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such customary amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Payment Agent will issue, 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 by such Certificate, as contemplated under this Article 2.

(f) Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock 12 months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.04 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation (as unsecured creditors thereof) for payment of the Merger Consideration.

Section 2.05 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding Section 2.03 or Section 2.04, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing, who is entitled to appraisal and who has properly exercised appraisal rights for such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration but instead shall be entitled only to payment of the appraised value of such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, following which such shares shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to appraisal, pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.03(a), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such share in accordance with Section 2.04. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice and copies of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL that relates to such demand, and Parent shall have the opportunity and right to participate in all negotiations and Proceedings with respect to such demands. Subject to the previous sentence, the Company shall enforce any contractual waivers that holders of Company Common Stock have granted regarding the waiver of appraisal or dissenter rights that apply to the Merger. Except with the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(b) As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the holder of any Company Option or any of the parties hereto, each Company Option that is then outstanding and unexercised and that has an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock that is equal to, or greater than, the Per Share Amount will be automatically cancelled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof.

(c) Each Company RSU and Company RSA that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will, to the extent unvested, become fully vested effective immediately prior to, and contingent upon, the Effective Time. Except as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time by Parent and a holder of Company RSUs or Company RSAs, as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the holder of any Company RSU or Company RSA or any of the parties hereto, each Company RSU and Company RSA that is then outstanding will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company RSU or the total number of Company RSAs, as applicable, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Per Share Amount, which will be paid in accordance with Section 2.06(e), without interest and subject to any applicable Tax withholding under Applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.08 and any other authorized deductions.

(d) Each Company PSU that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will, to the extent unvested, become vested effective immediately prior to, and contingent upon, the Effective Time, in the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company PSU based on the greater of the target performance level and the actual performance level measured as of the Effective Time (as determined by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Company Board as constituted immediately prior to the Effective Time) (or, for any Company PSUs for which the performance period has been completed as of the Effective Time, the actual performance level). Except as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time by Parent and a holder of Company PSUs, as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the holder of any Company PSU or any of the parties hereto, (i) the vested portion of a Company PSU (after giving effect to the first sentence of this Section 2.06(d)) will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such vested portion of the Company PSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Per Share Amount, which will be paid in accordance with Section 2.06(e), without interest and subject to any applicable Tax withholding under Applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.08 and any other authorized deductions, and (ii) the unvested portion of a Company PSU will be automatically cancelled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof.

(e) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but no later than ten Business Days after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation will pay, or will cause to be paid, the payments provided for in Section 2.06(a), Section 2.06(c) and Section 2.06(d)(i), less applicable Tax withholding under Applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.08 and other authorized deductions, to the applicable recipients thereof, with such payments to be made, to the extent applicable, through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, to the extent any such payments constitute a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, those payments will, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, instead be paid by, or at the direction of, the Surviving Corporation at the time when the related Company Equity Awards would otherwise have been settled in accordance with their terms or at such other time that is necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(c) As of the date hereof, other than the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Fee Letter, there are Contracts, arrangements (written or unwritten) or side letters to which Parent or any of its Affiliates is a party related to the Debt Financing that would reasonably be expected to (i) reduce the aggregate principal amount of any portion of the Debt Financing such that the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing would be below the Required Amount, (ii) impose any new or additional condition or contingency to the receipt of the Required Amount, (iii) adversely amend, modify, supplement, supersede or expand any of the conditions precedent to the Debt Financing as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, or (iv) prevent or delay the consummation of the Debt Financing past the date on which the Closing is required to occur in accordance with Section 2.01 (assuming for such purpose that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 have been satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted hereunder), other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) (such date, the “Funding Date”).

(d) Assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 (in each case, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), the Debt Financing (when funded in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter), together with the proceeds of the Equity Financing Letter, shall provide Parent and Merger Sub at the Closing sufficient cash to pay the Required Amount.

(e) Parent and Merger Sub, as applicable, have fully paid, or caused to be paid, any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the terms of the Debt Commitment Papers to be paid on or before the date of this Agreement.

(f) Section 5.08(f) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule accurately states the total principal amount outstanding under Parent’s credit facilities as of the date hereof.

(g) The obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated on the terms contemplated by this Agreement are not in any way contingent upon or otherwise subject to Parent’s consummation of any financing arrangement, Parent or any of its Affiliates obtaining any financing (including the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing) or the availability, grant, provision or extension of any financing to Parent or Merger Sub (including the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing).

Section 5.09 Solvency. Assuming (i) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 (in each case, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing) and (ii) that immediately prior to the Effective Time the Company and its Subsidiaries are Solvent, each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be Solvent as of the Effective Time and immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Debt Financing occurring in connection therewith. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Solvent” when used with respect to any Person, means that, as of any date of determination, (x) the amount of the “fair saleable value” (determined on a going concern basis) of the assets and property of such Person, in each case, will, as of such date, exceed (i) the value of all “liabilities of such Person, including contingent and other liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with Applicable Laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, and (ii) the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of such Person on its existing debts (including contingent and other liabilities) as such debts become absolute and mature in the ordinary course of business, (y) such Person will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital

for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged following such date, and (z) such Person will be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent (it being understood that the amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability), subordinated and other liabilities, as they mature in the ordinary course of business. For purposes of this definition, (i) “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, including contingent, subordinated and other liabilities, as they mature in the ordinary course of business” means that such Person will be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions or refinancing, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due, and (ii) the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual and matured liability. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is entering into this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of itself (or of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries).

Section 5.10 Absence of Certain Agreements. As of the date hereof, other than the Support Agreements, neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their respective Affiliates has entered into any agreement, arrangement or understanding (in each case, whether oral or written), or authorized, committed or agreed to enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding (in each case, whether oral or written), (i) pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company would be entitled to receive, in respect of any share of Company Common Stock, consideration of a different amount, nature or on different terms than the Merger Consideration or pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company has agreed to vote to adopt this Agreement or has agreed to vote against any Superior Proposal or (ii) pursuant to which any stockholder of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has agreed with Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates to make an investment in, participation, consulting or other similar relationship with or contribution to, Parent or Merger Sub in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of Parent, other than the Support Agreements, there are no (and have not been any) agreements, arrangements or understandings (in each case, whether oral or written) between Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Company Related Party, on the other hand, that relate in any way to, or are in connection with, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries. To the Knowledge of Parent, none of Parent or Merger Sub (or any of their respective Affiliates (which for this purpose will be deemed to include each direct investor in Parent or Merger Sub)) has entered into any Contract or an arrangement with any Person prohibiting, materially hindering or seeking to prohibit or materially hinder such Person from providing or seeking to provide debt financing to any Person in connection with a transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger.

Section 5.11 Stock Ownership. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is the beneficial owner of any shares of capital stock of the Company (including derivatives thereof). None of Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their respective “affiliates” or “associates” (each, as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) is an “interested stockholder” of the Company as defined in Section 203(c) of the DGCL.

Section 5.13 Parent and Merger Sub Information. The written information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will not, at the time the Proxy Statement (and any amendment, modification, supplement or restatement thereto) is first mailed to the stockholders of the Company, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

Section 5.14 CFIUS Foreign Person Status.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent has delivered to the Company a true, correct and complete copy of the Equity Financing Letter, duly executed by the Equity Investor and Parent. The Equity Financing Letter is in full force and effect and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of Parent and the Equity Investor, in each case enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms. As of the date hereof, Parent affirms that no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of the Equity Investor under any term of the Equity Financing Letter. The Equity Financing Letter expressly provides, and shall continue to expressly provide, that the Company is an intended third party beneficiary thereof with full rights to cause Parent to enforce the obligations of the Equity Investor in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy of the Guarantee, duly executed by the Equity Investor and Parent.

Section 6.02 Unsolicited Proposals.

(a) Subject to Section 6.03(b) and Section 6.03(c) and this Section 6.02, from the date hereof until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01:

(i) the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ directors and officers not to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly (other than with respect to Parent and Merger Sub), (A) solicit, initiate, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage any proposals or offers that constitute, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal (it being agreed that supplying non-public information in the ordinary course of business shall not be prohibited), (B) engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions, solicitations or negotiations with any Third Party regarding an Acquisition Proposal, or furnish to any Third Party information or provide to any Third Party access to the businesses, properties, assets or personnel of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case for the purpose of knowingly encouraging or knowingly facilitating an Acquisition Proposal or (C) enter into or agree to enter into any letter of intent, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, or other similar agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.02) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or enter into or agree to enter into any agreement requiring the Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(ii) the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall direct and use reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate any existing discussions or negotiations with any Third Party theretofore conducted by the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, and promptly following the date hereof (and in any event within one Business Day thereafter), the Company shall request that all non-public information previously provided by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any such Third Party be returned or destroyed in accordance with the applicable confidentiality agreement in place with such Third Party; and

(iii) the Company will not waive, terminate or modify, any provision of any standstill or confidentiality agreement that prohibits or purports to prohibit a proposal being made to the Company Board (or any committee thereof) unless the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would prohibit the counterparty from making a confidential Acquisition Proposal to the Company Board.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if, at any time on or after date the date hereof, but prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, (i) the Company receives a written Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party, (ii) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a material breach of this Section 6.02 and (iii) the Company Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith, after consultation with a Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal, then the Company, directly or indirectly through one or more of its Representatives, may (A) furnish information and data with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal and afford such Third Party access to the businesses, properties, assets and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (B) enter into, maintain and participate in discussions or negotiations with the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal or otherwise cooperate with or assist or participate in, or facilitate, any such discussions or negotiations (including by entering into a customary confidentiality agreement with such Third Party for the purpose of receiving non-public information relating to such Third Party); provided, however, that the Company (1) will not, and will not permit its Subsidiaries or its or their Representatives to, furnish any non-public information except pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (2) will promptly (but in no event later than 36 hours after the time it is provided to such Third Party) provide to Parent any material non-public information concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries provided to such Third Party, which was not previously provided to Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but, with respect to the following clause (x), only prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, the Company, directly or indirectly through one or more of its Representatives, may (x) following the receipt of an Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party that did not result from a material breach of this Section 6.02, contact such Third Party in order to clarify and understand the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal made by such Third Party in order to permit the Company Board (or any committee thereof) to determine whether such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal and (y) direct any Persons making inquiry regarding a potential Acquisition Proposal to this Agreement, including the specific provisions of this Section 6.02.

(c) From and after the date hereof, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than 36 hours after such receipt) notify Parent in writing of the Company’s or any of its Representatives’ receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, which notification shall include a copy of the applicable written Acquisition Proposal (or, if oral, the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal) and the identity of the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal (provided that, to the extent disclosure of the identity of the Third Party is expressly prohibited by a confidentiality agreement in place as of the date hereof, the Company may not take the actions

described in clause (A) or (B) of Section 6.02(b) unless such Third Party waives such prohibition). The Company shall thereafter keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt basis (and within one Business Day of receipt of any updated Acquisition Proposal) of any material developments regarding any such Acquisition Proposal, and the material terms and conditions thereof (including any change in price or form of consideration or other material amendment thereto), including by providing a copy of material documentation relating thereto that is exchanged between the Third Party (or its Representatives) making such Acquisition Proposal and the Company (or its Representatives) promptly after receipt thereof.

(d) The Company agrees that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.02 by any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acting on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries will be deemed to constitute a breach by the Company of this Section 6.02.

Section 6.03 Company Recommendation.

(a) Subject to Section 6.03(b) and Section 6.03(c), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) fail to make, withdraw, amend or modify, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, amend or modify, in any manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, the Company Recommendation, (ii) adopt, approve, endorse, recommend or otherwise declare advisable, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, endorse, recommend or otherwise declare advisable, an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) fail to publicly recommend against acceptance of any Third Party tender offer or exchange offer for the shares of Company Common Stock within ten Business Days after commencement of such offer, (iv) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, to the Company’s stockholders an Acquisition Proposal, (v) cause or permit the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to execute or enter into any letter of intent, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, or such other permitted confidentiality agreement, pursuant to Section 6.02), (vi) other than in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Company Common Stock, fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation within five Business Days after Parent so requests in writing (it being understood that the Company will have no obligation to make such reaffirmation on more than one occasion) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or if doing so would be inconsistent with Applicable Law, including fiduciary duties of the Company Board (provided that Parent may make a request in response to any Acquisition Proposal that has been publicly disclosed, other than an Acquisition Proposal that is a Third Party tender offer or exchange offer for the Company Common Stock), (vii) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, or (viii) resolve or publicly propose to take any action described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) or clauses (vi) through (viii) (each of the foregoing actions, subject to Section 6.03(c), described in clauses (i) through (iv) and clauses (vi) through (viii) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(b) (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 6.03(a), at any time prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, the Company Board or any committee thereof may, if it determines in good faith (after consultation with a Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel), that the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, (A) make an Adverse

Recommendation Change in response to either (1) a Superior Proposal or (2) any fact, event, change, development or circumstance not known or reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the date hereof (or, if known, the consequences of which were not known nor reasonably foreseeable) and not relating to (x) any Acquisition Proposal or (y) the mere fact, in and of itself, that the Company meets or exceeds any internal or published projections, forecasts, estimates or predictions of revenue, earnings or other financial or operating metrics for any period ending on or after the date hereof, or changes after the date hereof in the market price or trading volume of the Company Common Stock or the credit rating of the Company (it being understood that the underlying cause of any of the foregoing in this clause (y) may be considered and taken into account) (such fact, event, change, development, circumstance or consequences thereof, an “Intervening Event”) and/or (B) cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) and authorize the Company to enter into a definitive agreement concerning a transaction that constitutes a Superior Proposal (which agreement shall be entered into promptly following such termination), subject in each case to compliance with the terms of paragraph (ii) or (iii) below, as applicable.

(ii) In the case of a Superior Proposal, (x) no Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.03(b) may be made and (y) no termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) may be made:

(A) unless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives have not materially breached their obligations pursuant to Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 with respect to such Superior Proposal;

(B) until after the fourth Business Day following written notice from the Company advising Parent that the Company Board or any committee thereof intends to make an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to a Superior Proposal and/or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) and specifying the reasons therefor, including, the material terms and conditions of, and the identity of the Third Party making, such Superior Proposal, and a copy of any other relevant transaction documents (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Superior Proposal, which shall require a new notice period of two Business Days from the later of the end of the original notice period or delivery to Parent of such new Notice of Superior Proposal, and compliance with this Section 6.03(b) with respect to such new notice);

(C) unless during such four Business Day period (or two Business Day period following an amended proposal) and if Parent has not declined to negotiate, the Company shall, and shall direct its Representatives to, to the extent requested by Parent, make itself available to negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and/or the Debt Commitment Letter as would enable the Company Board or a committee thereof to maintain the Company Recommendation and not make an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement; and

(D) unless, prior to the expiration of such four Business Day period (or two Business Day period following an amended proposal), Parent does not make a written proposal to adjust the terms and conditions of this Agreement and/or the Debt Commitment Letter such that the Company Board or a committee thereof shall determine in good faith (after consultation with a Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel) that the Superior Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal.

(iii) In the case of an Intervening Event, no Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.03(b) may be made:

(A) until after the fourth Business Day following written notice from the Company advising Parent that the Company Board or any committee thereof intends to take such action and specifying the material facts underlying the determination by the Company Board or a committee thereof that an Intervening Event has occurred, and the reason for the Adverse Recommendation Change, in reasonable detail (a “Notice of Intervening Event”) (it being understood and agreed that any material modifications or developments with respect to such Intervening Event shall require a new Notice of Intervening Event, which shall require a new notice period of two Business Days, and compliance with this Section 6.03(b) with respect to such new notice);

(B) unless during such four Business Day period (or two Business Day period following a material modification or development), the Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, to the extent requested by Parent, make itself available to negotiate with Parent in good faith to enable Parent to amend this Agreement and/or the Debt Commitment Letter in such a manner that obviates the need for an Adverse Recommendation Change (including, if requested by Parent, permitting Parent to make a presentation to the Company Board regarding such adjustments); and

(C) unless, prior to the expiration of such four Business Day period (or two Business Day period following a material modification or development), the Company Board or a committee thereof determines in good faith, taking into consideration any amendments to this Agreement and the Debt Commitment Letter proposed in writing by Parent (after consultation with a Company Financial Advisor and outside legal counsel), that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change could reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law.

(iv) Parent and Merger Sub agree that any proposals to amend this Agreement and/or the Debt Commitment Letter in response to a Notice of Superior Proposal or a Notice of Intervening Event shall be made on a confidential basis to the Company or, if directed by the Company, a Company Financial Advisor. For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of a Notice of Superior Proposal or a Notice of Intervening Event shall not, in and of itself, constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(c) Nothing contained in Section 6.02 or this Section 6.03 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a) or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board or any committee thereof, after consultation with outside legal counsel, the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law or any disclosure requirements under Applicable Law, or (iii) making any disclosure that constitutes a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, which actions shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change; provided that (1) any such statement or disclosure pursuant to this Section 6.03(c) must be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and will not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company or the Company Board and the rights of Parent under Section 6.02 or this Section 6.03, and (2) nothing in the foregoing will be deemed to permit the Company or the Company Board to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change other than in accordance with Section 6.03(b).

Section 6.04 Approval of Merger Agreement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable (but no later than ten Business Days) following the clearance of the Proxy Statement by the SEC (whether by confirmation that the SEC has no further comments or, if the SEC informs the Company that it does not intend to review the Proxy Statement, expiration of the ten-day waiting period contemplated by Rule 14a-6(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act), the Company shall, in accordance with Applicable Law and the Company’s governing documents, cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders and duly set a record date for, call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (including any adjournments and postponements thereof, the “Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of considering and taking action upon the matters requiring Stockholder Approval with the record date and meeting date set in consultation with Parent; provided that the date of the Stockholder Meeting shall be no later than 25 Business Days following the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company’s stockholders; provided that, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Company may postpone or adjourn the Stockholder Meeting (i) with the consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) if the Company reasonably believes there will be insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Stockholder Meeting or to obtain the Stockholder Approval, (iii) to ensure that any necessary supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Stockholder Meeting, (iv) to allow additional time for the solicitation of votes in order to obtain Stockholder Approval, or (v) to comply with Applicable Law, including if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel), that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. Without the prior written consent of Parent (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Stockholder Meeting will not be postponed or adjourned (A) by more than ten Business Days at a time or (B) on more than two occasions. In no event will the record date of the Stockholder Meeting be changed without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless required by Applicable Law. Unless the Company Board or any committee thereof has withdrawn the Company Recommendation in

compliance with Section 6.03, the Company shall (x) submit this Agreement for adoption by the stockholders of the Company at the Stockholder Meeting, (y) include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and (z) use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit from stockholders of the Company proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the adoption of this Agreement shall be the only matter (other than matters of procedure and matters required by Applicable Law to be voted on by the stockholders of the Company in connection with the adoption of this Agreement) that the Company shall propose to be acted on by the stockholders of the Company at the Stockholder Meeting.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable (but no later than 25 Business Days after the date hereof) after the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare a proxy statement in preliminary form for the Stockholder Meeting (together with any amendments thereof or supplements thereto and any other required proxy materials, the “Proxy Statement”) and file it with the SEC and the Company, and Parent shall cooperate with each other in connection with the preparation of the foregoing, including to cause their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to cooperate with the preparation of the foregoing. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts (in consultation with Parent) to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the SEC or its staff concerning the Proxy Statement. The Company shall notify the other parties hereto promptly upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any other government officials and of any request by the SEC or its staff or any other government officials for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement and shall supply the others with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, or its staff or any other government officials, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall cooperate, and shall cause their Affiliates and direct their advisors to cooperate, with the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Proxy Statement, including promptly furnishing to the Company in writing upon request any and all information relating to Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates as may be required, or otherwise reasonably requested by the Company, to be set forth in the Proxy Statement under Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated above, prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, except with respect to any disclosure or communication that relates to a Superior Proposal or Adverse Recommendation Change, the Company shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response and shall consider Parent’s comments in good faith. If the Company determines that it is required to file any document other than the Proxy Statement with the SEC in connection with the Merger pursuant to Applicable Law (such document, as amended or supplemented, an “Other Required Company Filing”), then the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file such Other Required Company Filing with the SEC. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and NYSE.

(c) Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company further agrees that all documents that such party is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Merger (i) will not, on the date it is first mailed to stockholders of the Company and at the time of the Stockholder Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be

stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading and (ii) will comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub on the other hand, each assumes no responsibility with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of, respectively, Parent or Merger Sub or their Affiliates, or the Company or its Affiliates, as applicable, for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement. Parent shall ensure that such information supplied by it and its Affiliates for inclusion in the Proxy Statement will not, on the date it is first mailed to stockholders of the Company and at the time of the Stockholder Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

Section 6.05 Access to Information. Subject to Applicable Law, Section 6.12, Section 6.19 and applicable contractual restrictions, upon reasonable notice, the Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) afford Parent’s officers, directors and Parent’s other authorized Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time, to its books, Contracts, personnel, facilities and records to the extent necessary for any reasonable transaction-related purpose, including, without limitation, integration planning and/or post-Closing transition planning and implementation; provided that such access pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The foregoing shall not require the Company or its Subsidiaries to (a) provide access to or otherwise make available or furnish any books, Contracts or records which would result in a material breach of a confidentiality, non-disclosure or other similar agreement in effect as of the date hereof, (b) provide access to or otherwise make available or furnish any information if and to the extent that the provision of such information would in the good faith judgment of the Company based on advice of counsel jeopardize any attorney-client, work product, common interest privilege, allied litigant doctrine or any other recognized privilege or protection from disclosure or would reasonably be expected to cause a risk of a loss of privilege to the disclosing Person, (c) provide access to or otherwise make available or furnish any information relating to the process conducted by the Company that led to the execution of this Agreement (except to the extent expressly required by Section 6.02), (d) provide information that would expose the Company or its Subsidiaries to risk of liability for disclosure of sensitive or personal information, (e) provide access to or otherwise make available or furnish any information if and to the extent that the provision of such information would in the judgment of the Company based on advice of counsel violate any Company policies in any material respect or Applicable Law, or (f) prepare any financial statements, projections, reports, analyses, appraisals or opinions that are not readily available or prepared by the Company or its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (it being agreed that, in the case of clauses (a), (b) and (d), the Company shall give notice to Parent of the fact that it is withholding such information or documents and thereafter the Company and Parent shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to violate such restriction, policy or Applicable Law or waive the applicable privilege or protection). Except as otherwise permitted above, Parent and Merger Sub shall not, and shall cause their respective Representatives not to, contact any employee of the Company not involved in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement or any customer, technology or other partner, vendor or supplier of the Company in connection with the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the Company’s prior written consent, and Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that any such contact shall be arranged and supervised by Representatives of the Company (it being acknowledged and agreed that any such contacts with the foregoing parties or Persons in the ordinary course of business and unrelated to the Company or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be unrestricted). All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall be directed to the General Counsel or other Person designated by the Company. All such information shall, to the extent applicable, be deemed Proprietary Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) under and be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 6.06 Notice of Certain Events. Each of the Company and Parent will give prompt notice to the other (and will subsequently keep the other informed on a reasonably current basis of any material developments related to such notice) upon its becoming aware of the occurrence or existence of any fact, event or circumstance that (a) with respect to the Company, has had or would reasonably be expected have a Company Material Adverse Effect, (b) with respect to Parent or Merger Sub, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect and/or (c) is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article 7 not being able to be satisfied prior to the End Date. No notification given by any party pursuant to this Section 6.06 shall limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or conditions contained in this Agreement.

Section 6.07 Employee Matters.

(a) For a period of at least one year following the Effective Time (the “Covenant Period”) (or, in each case, if shorter, until the date of employment termination of the relevant Continuing Employee (as defined below)), Parent shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to, provide each employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time who continues employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation, or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Closing Date (each a “Continuing Employee”) with (i) base salary or base hourly rate, as applicable, that is no less than the base salary or base hourly rate, as applicable, provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) at Parent’s election either (A) target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities (including commissions and annual cash bonuses, but excluding retention, long term incentive compensation, change in control or transaction bonus opportunities and equity and equity-based incentive compensation and disregarding any stock in lieu of cash or similar programs), in each case in an amount that is no less favorable than the amount(s) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time or (B) an increase in base salary and/or, a modified target annual cash incentive opportunity such that, when combining clauses (i) and (ii), the Continuing Employee’s annual target cash compensation in the aggregate is no less than such Continuing Employee’s historical total target direct cash compensation, as determined by Parent in good faith as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) severance benefits for termination of employment during the Covenant Period that are no less favorable than those provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof under the severance benefit plans, programs, agreements and policies set forth in Section 6.07 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (and as Made Available to Parent) as applicable to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that any provisions therein relating to the treatment of outstanding equity

awards shall not apply to any equity awards issued following the Effective Time (unless otherwise determined in Parent’s sole discretion), and (iv) other employee benefits (including welfare and qualified defined contribution retirement benefits, but excluding equity-linked incentive awards, defined benefit pension, nonqualified deferred compensation, severance, long-term incentive, retention, change in control and post-employment or retiree health and welfare benefits (such exclusions, collectively the “Excluded Benefits”)) that in the aggregate are substantially comparable to those (other than the Excluded Benefits) provided to the Continuing Employees by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.07(a), from and after the Effective Time, Parent will, or will cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to, assume, honor and continue all of the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ employment agreements and retention plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements, in each case, in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event) and, for the duration of the Covenant Period, or such longer period of time as required under the terms of the applicable plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement, will do so without any amendment or modification other than any amendment or modification required to comply with Applicable Law or as consented to by the parties thereto.

(c) To the extent that service is relevant for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and (for purposes of vacation and severance benefits only) benefit accrual (including in order to calculate the amount of any paid time off and leave balance (including vacation and sick days) and severance benefits) (except, unless required by Applicable Law, not for any purposes with respect to defined benefit pension, nonqualified deferred compensation, and/or post-employment or retiree health and welfare benefits) under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) for the benefit of the Continuing Employees, other than any such plan, program or arrangement providing Excluded Benefits that are not severance benefits (the “Parent Benefit Plans”) following the Closing Date, such plan, program or arrangement will credit such Continuing Employees for service earned on and prior to the Closing Date with the Company and its Subsidiaries and any of their predecessors in addition to service earned with Parent or any of Parent’s Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation) after the Closing Date; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits or compensation or to the extent it was not credited for such purposes under the analogous Company Employee Plan prior to the Closing Date.

(d) With respect to any of the Parent Benefit Plans that provide group health benefits, Parent shall (or shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to) use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) waive any waiting periods and actively at work or evidence of insurability requirements and any limitations on eligibility, enrollment and benefits relating to any preexisting medical conditions of Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents; and (ii) for the plan year that includes the Closing Date, recognize, and/or cause its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) to also recognize, for purposes of annual deductible and out of pocket limits under the Parent Benefit Plans providing health benefits, any deductible, coinsurance, copayments and out of pocket expenses paid by such Continuing Employees and their respective dependents under Company Employee Plans.

(e) From and after the Closing Date, if the Closing Date occurs during the Company’s 2026 fiscal year, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay an annual bonus under each of the annual bonus and short-term cash-based incentive plans and programs sponsored or maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and Made Available to Parent) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “Annual Bonus Plan”) to each Eligible Continuing Employee (as defined below) for the Company’s 2026 fiscal year, with the amount of each such annual bonus to be based on actual performance under such Annual Bonus Plan for such fiscal year, determined in accordance with the applicable Annual Bonus Plan and in a manner consistent with past practice (each, an “Annual Bonus”). The Annual Bonuses will be paid at the same time or times that annual bonuses are typically paid under the terms of such Annual Bonus Plan. For purposes of the foregoing, “Eligible Continuing Employee” means a Continuing Employee (x) who remains an employee of the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their Subsidiaries on the last day of the fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs, or (y) whose employment is terminated without “Cause” or due to the Continuing Employee’s resignation with “Good Reason” (each as defined in Section 6.07(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) before payment of the Annual Bonus. If the Closing Date occurs during the Company’s 2027 fiscal year, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay (in addition to any quarterly bonus for completed quarters that has not yet been paid) a pro-rated portion of the annual bonus under each Annual Bonus Plan for the 2027 fiscal year based on the portion of such year through the end of the fiscal quarter in which the Closing Date occurs to each Eligible Continuing Employee, with the amount of each such pro-rated annual bonus to be based on actual performance for such fiscal quarter. Thereafter, Parent will be permitted to replace the Annual Bonus Plans with alternative short-term incentive opportunities for participants in the Annual Bonus Plans, subject to the requirements of Section 6.07(a).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the Closing Date occurs while any election to pay any annual bonus or other short-term incentive payment in shares of Company Common Stock, Company Securities and/or Company Equity Awards for the Company’s 2026 fiscal year is outstanding, such annual bonus or other short-term incentive payment shall instead be paid in cash but otherwise in accordance with all other terms of such election (inclusive of any incentive value provided for under the associated plan or arrangement). For the avoidance of doubt, any annual bonus or other short-term incentive payment opportunity for the Company’s 2026 fiscal year that is elected to be paid in the form of Company Common Stock, Company Securities and/or Company Equity Awards is not a Company Equity Award for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) The Company and Parent will cooperate in good faith to mitigate the impact of Section 280G of the Code on the Company and its Subsidiaries arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that in no event will the Company be required to take any action that would adversely affect the rights of any individual service provider. For the avoidance of doubt, in no circumstance will Parent provide any service provider of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with a “gross-up” or similar entitlement to mitigate the impact of Section 280G of the Code, except for any such “gross-up” entitlement in existence as of the date hereof, set forth on Section 4.16(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and Made Available to Parent.

(h) Nothing in this Section 6.07 shall be deemed to: (i) guarantee employment for any period of time or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee; (ii) establish, terminate, or amend any Company Employee Plan, Parent Benefit Plan or any other compensation or benefit plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement; (iii) impose a requirement upon or limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their Affiliates to continue, establish, terminate, or amend any particular benefit or compensation plan or arrangement before or after the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and any such plan may be amended or terminated in accordance with its terms and Applicable Law; or (iv) confer upon any Person any right as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

(i) Prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), Parent and Merger Sub will not, and will cause their respective Representatives not to, contact any director, officer or employee of the Company regarding employment, compensation, benefit, reinvestment or similar matters, including with respect to agreements to modify amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03(a), Section 2.06(a), Section 2.06(c) and Section 2.06(d).

Section 6.08 State Takeover Laws. If any “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “moratorium” or other anti-takeover Applicable Law becomes or is deemed to be applicable to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, and their respective boards of directors or managers (as applicable) shall grant such approvals and take such actions within their respective authority as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to render such anti-takeover Applicable Law inapplicable to the foregoing.

Section 6.09 Obligations of Merger Sub. Parent shall cause Merger Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, immediately after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, shall execute and deliver to Merger Sub and the Company a written consent adopting this Agreement in accordance with the DGCL.

Section 6.10 Voting of Shares. Parent shall vote, or cause to be voted, any shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by it or any of its Affiliates, in favor of adoption of this Agreement at the Stockholder Meeting, and will vote or cause to be voted the shares of Merger Sub held by it or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in favor of adoption of this Agreement.

Section 6.11 Director and Officer Liability.

(a) For six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in respect of acts, errors or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each such Person currently covered by the Company’s and the Company’s Subsidiaries’ officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policies on terms with respect to coverage and amount no less favorable than those of such policies in effect on the date hereof; provided, however, that in satisfying its obligation under this Section 6.11(a), neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 350% of the amount per annum the Company paid pursuant to its most recent renewal prior to the date hereof (the “Current Premium”) and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed 350% of the Current Premium, then the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance that, in the Surviving Corporation’s good faith judgment, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 350% of the Current Premium. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid “tail” or “runoff” policies have been obtained by the Company prior to the Effective Time (and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such “tail” or “runoff” policies if requested in writing by Parent), which policies provide such Persons currently covered by such policies with coverage for an aggregate period of six years with respect to claims arising from acts, errors or omissions that occurred on or before the Effective Time, including in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company may, with the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) also purchase prepaid “tail” or “runoff” policies for any other “claims-made” liability insurance coverage, including employment practices liability, professional liability and cyber and data security liability coverages; provided that such premiums for such insurance do not exceed 350% of the amount per annum the Company paid pursuant to its most recent renewal prior to the date hereof with respect to each such coverage. If any such prepaid policies described in this Section 6.11(a) have been obtained by the Company prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain any and all such policies in full force and effect for their full term, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and the organizational documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries in effect as of the date of this Agreement and any indemnification agreement in effect as of the date hereof between the Company and any Indemnified Party: (i) indemnify (including advancement of expenses) and hold harmless each individual who at the Effective Time is, or at any time prior to the Effective Time was, a director or officer of the Company or of a Subsidiary of the Company (each an “Indemnified Party”) for any and all costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel, which shall be advanced as they are incurred), judgments, fines, penalties, losses, damages or liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement or compromise) imposed upon or incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or other Proceeding (whether civil or criminal) in which such Indemnified Party may be involved or with which he or she may be threatened (regardless of whether as a named party or as a participant other than as a named party, including as a witness) (an “Indemnified Party Proceeding”) (A) by reason of such Indemnified Party’s being or having been such director or officer or an employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or otherwise in connection with any action taken or not taken at the request of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, including in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the process and other events giving rise thereto or (B) arising out of such Indemnified Party’s service in connection with any other corporation or organization for which he or she serves or has served as a director, officer, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary at the request of the Company (including in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit

plan), in each of (A) or (B), whether or not the Indemnified Party continues in such position at the time such Indemnified Party Proceeding is brought or threatened and at, or at any time prior to, the Effective Time (including any Indemnified Party Proceeding relating in whole or in part to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or relating to the enforcement of this provision or any other indemnification or advancement right of any Indemnified Party); and (ii) fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company pursuant to (x) each indemnification agreement in effect as of the date hereof between the Company and any Indemnified Party; and (y) any indemnification provision (including advancement of expenses) and any exculpation provision set forth in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date hereof. Parent shall pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (which shall be advanced as they are incurred), that may be incurred by Indemnified Parties in connection with their enforcement of their rights provided under this Section 6.11. Parent’s and the Surviving Corporation’s obligations under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six years from the Effective Time; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses in respect of any claim asserted or made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim. If Parent or the Surviving Corporation fails to comply with its obligations in this Section 6.11 and an Indemnified Party commences a suit which results in a determination that Parent or the Surviving Corporation failed to comply with such obligation, Parent shall pay such Indemnified Party his or her costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) in connection with such suit.

(c) During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) cause the organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable to those subject to those provisions as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Organizational Documents.

(d) If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of its 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 or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.11.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.11 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and his or her Representatives and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such individual may have under any certificate of incorporation or bylaws, by contract or otherwise. The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 6.11 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Party unless (x) such termination or modification is required by Applicable Law or (y) the affected Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.11). 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 now existing in favor of

any Indemnified Party as provided in the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or comparable governing documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any indemnification agreement between such Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will survive the Merger and will not be amended, modified, supplemented, superseded, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such Indemnified Party.

Section 6.12 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall use their reasonable best efforts to do all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or non-actions, waivers, consents and approvals, and expiration or termination of any waiting periods, from Governmental Authorities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Authorities, if any) and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid a Proceeding by, any Governmental Authorities, including that Parent will promptly, but in no event later than 15 Business Days after the date hereof, file any and all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by Parent as set forth in Section 7.01(c)(2) and Section 7.01(c)(3)(A) of the Company Disclosure Schedule with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and use reasonable best efforts to promptly secure the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods, as may be required under any applicable Laws with respect thereto; (ii) the delivery of required notices to, and the obtaining of required consents or waivers from, Third Parties (provided that the Company shall not be obligated to make any payment or commercial concession to any Third Party, or incur any liability, as a condition to (or in connection with) obtaining any such consent or waiver), and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Merger and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Company and Parent (including, if applicable, its “ultimate parent entity”, as that term is defined in the HSR Act and its implementing regulations) shall: (i) promptly, but in no event later than 20 Business Days after the date hereof, file any and all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such party under the HSR Act with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly secure the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act (including, but not limited to, seeking early termination of the applicable waiting periods pursuant to the HSR Act); (ii) promptly and in compliance with all Applicable Laws make all filings, and use reasonable best efforts to timely obtain all consents, permits, authorizations, waivers, clearances and approvals, and to cause the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods, as may be required under any other applicable Antitrust Laws (to the extent required); (iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable respond appropriately to any request by the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) under the HSR Act or by any other Governmental Authority under applicable Antitrust Laws in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iv) use reasonable best efforts to cause to be taken, on a timely basis, all other actions necessary or appropriate for the purpose of consummating and effectuating the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (v) defend any claim asserted in court

by any Governmental Authority or any other Person under Antitrust Laws in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing occurring prior to the End Date. Parent shall pay all filing fees under the HSR Act and other applicable Antitrust Laws, and the Company shall not be required to pay any fees or other payments to any Governmental Authority in connection with any filings under the HSR Act or such other filings as may be required under applicable Antitrust Laws, in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.12, each party hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry or Proceeding by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) keep the other parties reasonably informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry or Proceeding, and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any substantive communication to or from the FTC, DOJ or any other Governmental Authority to the extent regarding the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or regarding any such request, inquiry or Proceeding, and provide a copy of all written communications. In addition, Parent shall lead discussions with all Governmental Authorities and determine strategy related to obtaining clearances and approvals contemplated by this Section 6.12, subject to Parent’s good faith consultation with, and reasonable consideration of the views of, the Company. Subject to Applicable Law, in advance and to the extent practicable, each of Parent or the Company, as the case may be, will consult the other in good faith on all the information relating to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries that appear in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall consider in good faith any comments by Parent or the Company, as the case may be. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Authority or by any Applicable Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry or Proceeding in respect of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each party hereto will permit authorized Representatives of the other party to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such substantive request, inquiry or Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Authority in connection with such request, inquiry or Proceeding; provided, however, that materials required to be provided pursuant to Section 6.12(c) may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns.

(d) Without limiting the generality of the undertakings of Parent and the Company pursuant to Section 6.12(b) and Section 6.12(c), each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to take any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Laws or other Applicable Laws that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority or any other Person so as to enable the parties hereto to obtain all necessary actions, waivers, registrations, permits, authorizations, Orders, consents, approvals, and the expiry or termination of any applicable waiting periods from Governmental Authorities to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the End Date), including proposing,

negotiating, committing to and effecting by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, or disposition of businesses, product lines or assets of Parent or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company), in each case as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any preliminary or permanent injunction which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent will only be obligated to effect any such action to the extent that such action is conditional or contingent on the Closing occurring in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (ii) the expiration of termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub (nor any other controlled Affiliate of Parent) shall enter into any agreement, transaction or any agreement to effect any transaction (including any merger or acquisition) that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect or materially delay Parent’s or Merger Sub’s ability to: (i) obtain the timely expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, or the authorizations, consents, Orders and approvals required under any other applicable Antitrust Laws, applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) avoid the entry of, the commencement of litigation seeking the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Order that would materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) obtain all other authorizations, consents, Orders and approvals of Governmental Authorities necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 6.13 Transaction Litigation. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the other party in writing of, and shall give the other party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of, any Transaction Litigation. For purposes of this Section 6.13, “participate” means that the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall keep the other party reasonably apprised of the proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to any Transaction Litigation (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege is not undermined or otherwise adversely affected), and the other party may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation which the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall consider in good faith, but the other party shall not be afforded decision-making power or authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not compromise or settle, or agree to compromise or settle, any Transaction Litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Without otherwise limiting the Indemnified Parties’ rights with regard to the right to counsel, following the Effective Time, the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to retain Jones Day or such other counsel selected by such Indemnified Parties prior to the Effective Time to defend any Transaction Litigation.

Section 6.14 Public Announcements. The Company and Parent (or its direct or indirect parent entity) shall issue an initial joint press release relating to the execution of this Agreement, and the Company shall file one or more Current Reports on Form 8-K with the SEC attaching the announcement press release and a copy of this Agreement as exhibits. Thereafter Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any other public

announcements, or scheduling a press conference or conference call with investors or analysts, with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such other public announcement without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as such release or announcement may be required by Applicable Law or any listing agreement under which or rule of any national securities exchange or association upon which the securities of the Company are listed, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party about, and allow the other party reasonable time (taking into account the circumstances) to comment on, such release or announcement in advance of such issuance; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, (a) the Company shall not be required to consult with Parent before (i) issuing any press release or making any other public statement (x) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, Superior Proposal or Adverse Recommendation Change effected in accordance with Section 6.03 or (y) as otherwise permitted under Section 6.03, including with respect to its receipt and consideration of any Acquisition Proposal, Superior Proposal or “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, or (ii) disseminating any communications principally directed to employees, customers, technology or other partners or vendors so long as such communications are consistent with this Agreement or previous releases, public disclosures, public statements or other communications made by the parties not in violation of this Section 6.14 and (b) Parent, Merger Sub and their Affiliates shall not be required to consult with the Company before making any statements or disclosures with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (i) to existing or prospective general or limited partners, equity holders, members, managers and investors of such Person or any Affiliates of such Person, in each case who are subject to customary confidentiality restrictions, (ii) on such Person’s website or social media channels in the ordinary course of business (but with respect to such statements, only to the extent that such statements are consistent with the previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the Company and Parent (or individually if approved by the other party)) or (iii) with respect to responding to any Adverse Recommendation Change.

Section 6.15 Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or Merger Sub, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

Section 6.16 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all such steps as may be reasonably required to cause any dispositions (or acquisition, if applicable) of shares of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 6.17 Debt Financing.

(a) Each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use, and will cause their respective Affiliates to use, reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange, obtain and consummate the Debt Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions (including “market flex” provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Fee Letter, on or prior to the Funding Date, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect and comply in all material respects (to the extent such compliance is within the control of Parent and Merger Sub) with the Debt Commitment Papers, (ii) negotiate and enter into binding definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions (including the market “flex” provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Fee Letter (or on other terms that in the aggregate are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to Parent or Merger Sub than the terms and conditions (including market “flex” provisions) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Fee Letter) (provided no such other terms would reasonably be expected to adversely impair or delay the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger or obtain the Debt Financing in an aggregate amount no less than the Required Amount) (such definitive agreements in respect of the Debt Financing, collectively with the Debt Commitment Papers, collectively the “Debt Documents”), (iii) satisfy at or prior to the Closing all conditions applicable to Parent and Merger Sub in the Debt Commitment Papers that are within the control of the Parent and Merger Sub and that are necessary to cause funding of the Debt Financing to occur on the Funding Date using its reasonable best efforts to cause the lenders and the other Persons committing to fund the Debt Financing at the Closing, (iv) upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions herein to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), consummate the Debt Financing, and (v) enforce its rights under the Debt Documents and comply with its covenants thereunder (provided that, notwithstanding this clause (v), each of Parent and Merger Sub shall not be required to initiate, prosecute or maintain any claim, action, suit, demand, grievance, arbitration or similar proceeding against any Debt Financing Source). Parent and Merger Sub shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, agree to or permit any termination, rescission or withdrawal of or amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, or grant any waiver of any provision under, or assignment of, the Debt Commitment Letter or any other Debt Document, except that any such termination, recission, withdrawal, amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or assignment shall be permitted without such consent except to the extent it would reasonably be expected to (A) reduce the aggregate principal amount of any portion of the Debt Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount as compared to the fees and original issue discount contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing Fee Letter (including any “flex” provisions set forth therein)) such that the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing would be below the Required Amount, (B) impose any new or additional condition or contingency to the receipt of the Required Amount or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions precedent to the Debt Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing), (C) make the funding of any portion of the Required Amount of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of any condition to obtaining any portion of the Required Amount of the Debt Financing) materially less likely to occur or (D) materially adversely impact the ability of Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, to consummate the Debt Financing, in at least the Required Amount, on the Funding Date.

(b) Upon request by the Company, Parent shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably prompt basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing. Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company prompt written notice of, and keep the Company informed on a reasonably prompt basis and in reasonable detail of (i) any breach, default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to result in a breach or default), termination or cancellation by any party to any Debt Document of which Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware, (ii) the receipt by Parent or Merger Sub of any written notice or other written communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any (A) actual or alleged breach, default, termination or cancellation by any party to any Debt Document of the provisions thereof or (B) dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Debt Document (other than ordinary course or customary negotiations relating to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document relating to the Debt Financing), in each case regarding the Debt Financing and which would reasonably be expected to make the Debt Financing (in an amount equal to the Required Amount) less likely to occur on the Funding Date, and (iii) the occurrence of an event or development that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to timely obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing necessary to fund the Required Amount on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within two Business Days after the Company delivers to Parent a written request therefor, Parent and Merger Sub will provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding sentence. If (x) commitments with respect to any portion of the Debt Financing necessary to fund the Required Amount expire or terminate or (y) any portion of the Debt Financing necessary to fund the Required Amount becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any applicable market “flex” provisions) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, Parent shall promptly so notify the Company in writing and Parent and Merger Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable, in replacement thereof alternative financing (the “Alternative Financing”) from alternative sources in an amount sufficient to fund the Required Amount with terms and conditions, taken as a whole, not less favorable to Parent and Merger Sub (or their respective Affiliates) than the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Papers (including market “flex” provisions). Parent shall deliver to the Company true and complete copies of the alternative debt commitment letters (including fee letters) pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide any portion of the Alternative Financing, which fee letter(s) may be redacted for the fee amounts, “flex” terms and other economic terms customarily redacted for transactions of this type. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.17(a) and this Section 6.17(b), Parent and Merger Sub may amend, restate and/or replace (or cause any of the foregoing) the Debt Commitment Letter to (x) add additional Debt Financing Sources or reallocate commitments among creditworthy lenders or reassign titles so long as the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing is not reduced below the Required Amount and (y) implement or exercise any “flex” provisions in the Debt Financing Fee Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, references to the “Debt Commitment Letter” and the “Debt Financing Fee Letter” shall include such documents as permitted to be amended, restated, modified, supplemented or replaced by this Section 6.17 and (z) references to “Debt Financing” shall include the debt financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as permitted to be amended, modified, supplemented or replaced by this Section 6.17.

(c) Each of Parent and Merger Sub expressly acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of, or the availability of, the Debt Financing or any other financing transaction is not a condition to the Closing and reaffirms its respective obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated herein irrespective and independently of the availability of the Debt Financing, subject to fulfillment or waiver of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 7.

Section 6.18 Debt Financing Cooperation.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Representatives to, use its respective reasonable best efforts (other than clause (vii) below which shall be subject to commercially reasonable efforts) to provide Parent and Merger Sub with all customary cooperation as is reasonably requested by Parent, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the arrangement, syndication and consummation of the Debt Financing, including to the extent so requested using its respective reasonable best efforts to:

(i) furnish (on a confidential basis) Parent with (x) the Required Information (including updating, supplementing or correcting any Required Information to the extent such Person has knowledge that such Required Information contains any material omission of fact or material misstatement of fact regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries) and (y) such other customary financial information as reasonably requested by Parent to enable Parent to prepare customary pro forma financial statements; provided that in no event shall the Required Information or the information in clause (y) above be deemed to include or shall the Company otherwise be required to provide any information regarding any post-Closing or pro forma financial statements, post-Closing pro forma adjustments desired to be incorporated into any information used in connection with the Debt Financing (including any synergies or cost savings), projections, ownership or an as-adjusted capitalization table;

(ii) assist in preparation for and participate (and direct appropriate senior officers with appropriate expertise to participate) in a reasonable number of lender meetings (including a reasonable and limited number of one-on-one meetings and calls that are requested in advance with or by the Debt Financing Sources) (which shall be virtual unless otherwise agreed to by the Company), presentations and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Debt Financing at reasonable times and locations mutually agreed, and assist Parent in obtaining ratings in connection with the Debt Financing;

(iii) assist Parent with the preparation of customary materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda and similar marketing documents required in connection with the Debt Financing (including customary bank authorization letters without a “knowledge qualifier”; provided the Company has had a reasonable period of time to first review and comment on such materials and the reasonable comments of the Company thereto have been incorporated);

(iv) furnishing Parent, at least one Business Day prior to the Closing, with (x) a customary payoff letter (including providing Parent with drafts thereof at least five Business Days prior to the Closing) reasonably satisfactory to Parent with respect to Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement, which shall provide (A) the total amount required to be paid to fully satisfy

the applicable Indebtedness and other obligations owing thereunder (other than those obligations expressly permitted to survive thereunder) (the “Payoff Amounts”), (B) wire instructions for payment of such Payoff Amounts, and (C) that upon receipt of the Payoff Amounts set forth in such payoff letter, all guarantees and Liens in connection with such Indebtedness shall be automatically and immediately released and terminated and that Parent or any of its Affiliates are authorized to file such documents and instruments as are necessary or desirable to evidence such release and (y) other customary documents and deliverables, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, to release and terminate all guarantees and Liens in connection with such repaid Indebtedness (collectively, the deliverables in clauses (x) and (y), the “Payoff Deliverables”);

(v) assist in the preparation and facilitate the execution and delivery (in the case of execution and delivery, solely to the extent any such execution would only be effective on or after the Effective Time) of any definitive financing documentation required in connection with the Debt Financing and the schedules and exhibits thereto, in each case, customarily required to be delivered under such definitive financing documentation, including credit agreements (or joinders thereto), pledge and security documents, and other definitive financing documents and deliverables (including any Investment Company Act diligence);

(vi) assist in the creation and perfection of security interests, pledges, mortgages and other Liens, in each case only so long as such security interests, pledges, mortgages and other Liens do not become effective prior to the Effective Time and with taking actions reasonably necessary to permit any Debt Financing Sources to reasonably evaluate the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ material assets and cash management and accounting system for the purposes of establishing collateral arrangements;

(vii) (A) make, or cause to be made, all filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, or equivalent Intellectual Property filing offices in other applicable jurisdictions that are reasonably necessary to evidence and record the release of applicable security interests against any Company Intellectual Property listed on the Registered IP List, and (B) keep Parent reasonably apprised of the progress of such filings upon written request by Parent (email being sufficient); and

(viii) assist in the taking of customary corporate and other similar actions, subject to and contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing, reasonably necessary to permit the consummation of the Debt Financing on the Closing Date (provided that no such action pursuant to this clause (viii) shall be required by the Company Board and such actions will only be required by a director, manager or any equivalent officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who will continue in such position after the Closing).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.18 or this Agreement, the Company shall provide all documentation and other information about the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries as is reasonably required under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including the USA PATRIOT Act at least four Business Days prior to the Closing, in each case to the extent requested of the Company by Parent in writing at least nine Business Days in advance of the Closing.

(b) Nothing in this Section 6.18 will require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to (i) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any fees or reimburse any expenses prior to the Effective Time for which it has not received prior reimbursement or is not otherwise satisfactorily indemnified by or on behalf of Parent, (ii) enter into any definitive agreement that is effective prior to the Effective Time (other than customary bank authorization letters (or the equivalent thereof)), (iii) incur any liability or give any indemnities in connection with the Debt Financing that are effective prior to the Effective Time (other than to the extent reimbursable, indemnified or payable by Merger Sub), (iv) take any action that would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or create an unreasonable risk of damage or destruction of any property or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (v) deliver or cause the delivery of any legal opinions or accountant comfort letters, (vi) prepare or deliver financial or (excluding information described in subclause (a)(iv) of this Section 6.18) other information not produced in the ordinary course of business or in a form not customarily prepared by the Company to the extent the preparation of which would be unduly burdensome, (vii) deliver any certificate or authorization letter that it reasonably believes in good faith contains any untrue certifications, (viii) provide in connection with the Debt Financing any information the disclosure of which is prohibited under Applicable Law or is legally privileged (provided that, if the Company withholds any such information on such basis, the Company shall provide notice to Parent reasonably detailing the basis by which the Company is withholding such information), (ix) be required to provide (A) any pro forma financial information, including pro forma cost savings, synergies, capitalization or other pro forma adjustments desired to be incorporated into any pro forma financial information, (B) any description of all or any component of the Debt Financing, including any such description to be included in any liquidity or capital resources disclosure or any “description of notes”, (C) projections, risk factors or other forward-looking statements relating to all or any component of the Debt Financing, (D) separate subsidiary financial statements or any other information of the type required by Rule 3-09, Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X, (E) Compensation Disclosure and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K, or (F) any solvency certificate or similar certification or representation that would be effective prior to Closing, or (x) be required to take any action that would conflict with, violate or result in a breach of or default under its organizational documents or any Material Contract, in each case, as in effect on the date hereof, to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.18 (A) no action, liability or obligation of the Company and its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument relating to the Debt Financing will be effective until the Effective Time, and none of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be required to take any action pursuant to any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument that is not contingent on the occurrence of the Effective Time or that must be effective prior to the Effective Time (other than customary bank authorization letters (or the equivalent thereof)), (B) any bank information memoranda and high-yield offering prospectuses or memoranda required in relation to the Debt Financing will contain disclosure reflecting the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries as the obligor, and (C) no officer, director, employee or Representative of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be required to deliver any certificate or opinion or take any other action under this Section 6.18 that could result in personal liability to such Person or Representative.

(c) After any valid termination of this Agreement, promptly upon request (but in any event within 30 days thereafter) by the Company, Parent will reimburse the Company for any documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees of one outside counsel (not including the costs of in-house legal or accounting services)) incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries contemplated by this Section 6.18, in an amount not to exceed $500,000; provided that the Company and its Subsidiaries (and not Parent) shall be responsible for (x) any amounts that would otherwise have been incurred in the absence of the Debt Financing and (y) any ordinary course amounts payable to existing employees of or consultants to the Company with respect to services provided prior to the Closing Date.

(d) The Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives will be indemnified and held harmless by Parent from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), interest, awards, judgments, penalties and amounts paid in settlement suffered or incurred by them in connection with their cooperation in arranging the Debt Financing pursuant to this Agreement or the provision of information utilized in connection therewith (other than information provided by the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Parent be obligated to indemnify any such Persons to the extent such liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), interest, awards, judgments, penalties and amounts resulted, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, from (i) the bad faith, Fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person or (ii) a material breach of this Section 6.18 by such Person or its Representatives.

(e) The Company hereby consents to the use of its logos solely in connection with the Debt Financing; provided that Parent and Merger Sub shall ensure that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or the Company’s reputation or goodwill and will comply with the Company’s usage requirements to the extent Made Available to Parent and Merger Sub prior to the date of this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Parent and Merger Sub understands and acknowledges and agrees that obtaining the Debt Financing or any alternative financing is not a condition to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company will be deemed to be in compliance with Section 6.18 unless the Company commits a Willful and Material Breach of its obligations under this Section 6.18 and such breach is a proximate cause of the Debt Financing not being obtained.

Section 6.19 Confidentiality. Parent and the Company hereby agree to continue to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of January 3, 2025, as amended on December 11, 2025, by and between Kinderhook Industries, LLC and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) (it being acknowledged and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that Parent and Merger Sub are “Affiliates” of Kinderhook Industries, LLC for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement). All information provided by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement (including in connection with the Debt Financing) will be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that Parent and Merger Sub will be permitted to disclose such information on a need-to-know basis to any equity financing

sources or Debt Financing Sources that may become parties to the definitive documents evidencing the Debt Financing (and, in each case, to their respective counsel and auditors) so long as each such Person (a) agrees for the benefit of the Company to be bound by substantially similar terms of the Confidentiality Agreement as if a party thereto or (b) is subject to other confidentiality undertakings reasonably satisfactory to the Company and of which the Company is a third-party beneficiary.

Section 6.20 Director Resignations. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent resignations executed by each director of the Company in office immediately prior to the Effective Time, which resignations shall be effective at the Effective Time.

Section 9.02 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time, except that this Section 9.02 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the parties which by its terms contemplates performance after the Effective Time, which shall survive to the extent expressly provided for herein.

Section 9.03 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Subject to compliance with Applicable Law and NYSE’s rules and regulations, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that without the further approval of the Company’s stockholders, no such amendment or waiver shall be made or given after the Stockholder Approval that requires the approval of the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL unless the required further approval is obtained.

(b) At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent, Merger Sub or the Company may (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party or parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties by the other party or parties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) subject to the requirements of Applicable Law, waive compliance by the other party or parties with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 9.04 Fees and Expenses.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses (including any transfer, stamp and documentary Taxes or fees, if any) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such costs or expenses.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(h), prior to or concurrently with such termination, the Company shall pay (or cause to be paid to) Parent the Company Termination Fee.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(g), then the Company shall promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days after termination of this Agreement, pay to (or cause to be paid to) Parent the Company Termination Fee.

(d) If this Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(b) (but in the case of a termination by the Company, only if at such time Parent would not be prohibited from terminating this Agreement pursuant to the provisos in Section 8.01(b)), or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(e); (ii) at any time on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to such termination a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly made or otherwise become publicly known and not publicly withdrawn prior to such termination; and (iii)

within 12 months after the date of such termination, the Company enters into a definitive agreement in respect of an Acquisition Proposal, which Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated, then, the Company shall pay (or cause to be paid to) Parent the Company Termination Fee concurrently with the consummation of such Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 9.04(d), all references to “20% or more” or “less than 80%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “more than 50%” or “less than 50%,” respectively.

(e) If this Agreement is terminated by (i) the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(f) or Section 8.01(i) or (ii) Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b) and at such time the Company had the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(f) or Section 8.01(i), then Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days after termination of this Agreement, pay to (or cause to be paid to) the Company the Parent Termination Fee.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, any payment made by the Company or Parent under this Section 9.04 shall be payable only once with respect to this Section 9.04 and not in duplication even though such payment may be payable under one or more provisions hereof.

(g) (i) The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 9.04 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that without such provisions the parties hereto would not have entered into this Agreement, and (ii) the damages resulting from the termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation. Therefore, the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.04 will not constitute a penalty but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the party hereto receiving such amount in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger.

(h) If the Company fails to pay the Company Termination Fee or any portion thereof or Parent fails to pay the Parent Termination Fee or any portion thereof, in each case, when due and payable pursuant to this Section 9.04 and Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, commences a suit which results in an Order against the Company for the Company Termination Fee or any portion thereof or in an Order against Parent for the Parent Termination Fee or any portion thereof, the Company shall pay Parent and Merger Sub or Parent shall pay the Company, as the case may be, their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination fee, as the case may be (or, in each case, any portion thereof that has not been paid timely in accordance with this Agreement), and on the amount of such costs and expenses, in each case, from and including the date payment of such amount was due through the date of actual payment at the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made (which enforcement expenses and interest, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement shall in no event exceed $3,000,000). Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.04 shall be paid to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Parent shall promptly provide the Company and the Company shall provide Parent, in each case, upon request therefor the wire transfer information required to make any payments pursuant to this Section 9.04(h).

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent’s right to receive payment from the Company of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.04(b), Section 9.04(c) or Section 9.04(d), together with any payments pursuant to Section 9.04(h), shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates (including any investment fund, investment vehicle or client sponsored or advised by Kinderhook Industries, LLC or the Equity Investor or any of its or their Affiliates or any of the portfolio companies (as such term is commonly understood in the private equity industry) or other investments of any such investment fund, investment vehicle or client) or Representatives against the Company and any of its former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, equity award holders, managers, members or Affiliates (collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach hereunder or otherwise (whether such breach was a Willful and Material Breach or otherwise), and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee and any amounts owed pursuant to Section 9.04(h), none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(j) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Company’s right to receive payment from Parent of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.04(e), together with any payments pursuant to Section 9.04(h), as applicable, and any payments pursuant to Section 6.18(c) and Section 6.18(d), in each case shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives against Parent, Merger Sub, the Equity Investors, and any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, equity holders, managers, members, Affiliates and Debt Financing Sources (collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach hereunder or otherwise (whether such breach was a Willful and Material Breach or otherwise), and upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.04(e), together with any amounts owed pursuant to Section 9.04(h), as applicable and any payments pursuant to Section 6.18(c) and Section 6.18(d), none of the Parent Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation, including in respect of monetary damages or other monetary remedies or liability, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Equity Financing Letter, the Guarantee or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) if the Company (or its designee) received any payments from Parent in respect of any breach of this Agreement, and thereafter the Company (or its designee) is entitled to receive the Parent Termination Fee under this Section 9.04, the amount of such Parent Termination Fee shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of any payments made by Parent to the Company (or its designee) in respect of any such breaches of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum liability of the Parent Related Parties in connection with or arising out of any termination or breach (including in connection with a Willful and Material Breach) of this Agreement shall not exceed a dollar amount equal to the Parent Termination Fee plus the amount of any payments pursuant to Section 9.04(h), plus any payments pursuant to Section 6.18(c) and Section 6.18(d). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, but subject to the immediately preceding sentence, (A) nothing in this Section 9.04(j) shall limit in any way the

Company’s right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy in accordance with Section 9.09 (provided, however, it being understood that in no event shall the Company be entitled to obtain more than one of (x) a grant of specific performance pursuant to Section 9.09 that results in the Closing occurring, and (y) payment of the Parent Termination Fee) and (B) nothing in this Section 9.04(j) shall limit the remedies of the parties under the Confidentiality Agreement, the Equity Financing Letter or the Guarantee.

Section 9.05 Assignment; Benefit. Neither this Agreement nor any interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except for (a) the provisions of Article 2 (which, from and after the Effective Time, shall be for the express benefit of, and enforceable by, each holder of the Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards as of the Effective Time) concerning payment of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, (if the Effective Time occurs) the rights of the Indemnified Parties set forth in Section 6.11, and Section 8.02, (b) the Persons entitled to indemnification in Section 6.18(d), (c) the provisions of Section 9.04(i), which shall be enforceable by the Company Related Parties, (d) the provisions of Section 9.04(j) and Section 9.16, which shall be enforceable by the Parent Related Parties and (e) the provisions of Section 9.17 which shall be enforceable by the Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent or Merger Sub may assign this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Parent or Merger Sub or to any Debt Financing Source (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any permitted successor or assign thereof) to Parent or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof as security for obligations to such Debt Financing Source in respect of the financing arrangements entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and any refinancings, extensions, refundings or renewals thereof; provided that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub of any of its obligations hereunder and no such assignment is reasonably expected to prevent, materially delay or materially impede the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 9.06 Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes, claims, causes of action or controversies based on, arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including the negotiations thereof) or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the applicable statute of limitations, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws rules of such State or any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.07 Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that any Proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery, New Castle County, or if (and only if) that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over a particular matter, then in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, or if (and only if) such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over a particular matter, then in the Superior Court of Delaware, New Castle County, or if (and only if) such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, a Delaware State Court of competent jurisdiction sitting in New Castle County (the “Delaware Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction

of the Delaware Courts in respect of any legal or equitable Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or relating to enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any such Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that the Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereto agrees that notice or the service of process in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 9.01 or in any other manner permitted by law and that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to affect the right of any party hereto to proceed against any other partes hereto in any other jurisdiction to enforce judgments obtained in any Transaction Litigation brought pursuant to Section 6.13.

Section 9.08 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO (OR THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES, THEIR AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT (AND WITH RESPECT TO THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES, THEIR AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES).

Section 9.09 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that (i) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened or anticipated breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the courts described in Section 9.06 (including the right of a party hereto to cause the other party hereto to consummate the Merger), without proof of damages or otherwise, prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, this being in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, and (ii) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it waives the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and will not oppose the granting of an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that (x) the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or (y) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity; provided that under no circumstances will the Company, directly or indirectly, be entitled to receive both a grant of injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy to consummate the Closing, on the one hand, and payment of the Parent Termination Fee (together with any related costs, expenses and interest payable

pursuant to Section 9.04(h)), on the other hand. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.09 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to the Closing, the Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific enforcement and other equitable relief requiring Parent or Merger Sub to consummate the Merger on the terms and conditions in this Agreement if, and only if, (A) all conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived, (B) the Debt Financing has been funded or will be funded at the Closing, (C) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice to Parent that (1) all conditions set forth in Section 7.03 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or that it has irrevocably waived any unsatisfied conditions set forth in Section 7.03 and (2) it is ready, willing and able to close the Merger if the Debt Financing is funded at the Closing, and (D) Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement by the earlier of three Business Days of receiving the notice contemplated by clause (C) of this sentence and the End Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to a remedy of specific performance or other equitable remedies against any Debt Financing Source.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.09 nor Section 9.04 shall limit in any way the remedies of the parties under the Confidentiality Agreement or the Company’s third-party beneficiary rights under the Equity Financing Letter or the Guarantee.

Section 9.10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or such party waives its rights under this Section 9.10 with respect thereto. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner, in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 9.11 Parent Guarantee. Parent shall cause Merger Sub to comply in all respects with each of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and undertakings made or required to be performed by Merger Sub in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Merger, and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As a material inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder, Parent hereby unconditionally guarantees full performance and due, prompt and full payment by Merger Sub and discharge by and compliance with each of the covenants, obligations and

undertakings required to be performed by Merger Sub under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, subject to all terms, conditions and limitations contained in this Agreement, and hereby represents, acknowledges and agrees that any such breach of any such representation and warranty or default in the performance of any such covenant, obligation, agreement or undertaking of Merger Sub shall also be deemed to be a breach or default of Parent, and the Company shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to pursue any and all available remedies it may have arising out of any such breach, noncompliance or nonperformance directly against either or both of Parent and Merger Sub in the first instance. As applicable, references in this Section 9.11 to “Merger Sub” shall also include the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time.

Section 9.12 Entire Agreement; No Reliance; Access to Information.

(a) This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the exhibits and schedules to this Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Support Agreements, the Equity Financing Letter and the Guarantee constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect thereto.

(b) Parent and Merger Sub agree that, except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 4 of this Agreement or the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.02(c), neither the Company nor any other Person on behalf of the Company makes any other representations or warranties and hereby expressly disclaims any such other representations or warranties made by itself or any other Person, with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to any other party or any other party’s Representatives of any document or other information with respect to any one or more of the foregoing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding any otherwise express representations and warranties made by the parties to this Agreement or disclosure to Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective Representatives or Affiliates of any documentation or other information by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, each of Parent and Merger Sub agrees that neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any other Person on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes or has made any representation or warranty with respect to (i) any projections, forecasts, estimates, plans or budgets or future revenues, expenses or expenditures, future results of operations (or any component thereof), future cash flows (or any component thereof) or future financial condition (or any component thereof) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the future business, operations or affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries heretofore or hereafter delivered to or made available to it, or (ii) any other information, statements or documents heretofore or hereafter delivered to or made available to it, including the information in the electronic data room of the Company, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the business, operations or affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent and as expressly covered by a representation and warranty made in Article 4 of this Agreement.

(c) Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledges and agrees that it (a) has had an opportunity to discuss the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries with the management of the Company, (b) has had reasonable access to (i) the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) the documents provided by the Company for purposes of the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement, (c) has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and received answers from officers of the Company and (d) has conducted its own independent investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, and has not relied on any representation, warranty or other statement by any Person on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Article 4 of this Agreement. Each of Parent and Merger Sub hereby acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to develop estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information with which Parent and Merger Sub are familiar, that Parent and Merger Sub are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information furnished to them (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans and other forward-looking information), and, for the avoidance of doubt, that Parent and Merger Sub will have no claim against the Company or any of its stockholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, advisors, agents or other Representatives with respect thereto.

(d) The Company agrees that, except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 of this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub makes any other representations or warranties and each of Parent and Merger Sub hereby disclaim any other representations or warranties made by themselves or any of their respective Representatives, with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to any other party or any other party’s Representatives of any document or other information with respect to any one or more of the foregoing.

Section 9.13 Rules of Construction. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel of its choice throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with the advice of said independent counsel. Each party and its counsel cooperated and participated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto exchanged among the parties shall be deemed the work product of all of the parties and may not be construed against any party by reason of its drafting or preparation. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against any party that drafted or prepared it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived by each of the parties hereto, and any controversy over interpretations of this Agreement shall be decided without regard to events of drafting or preparation.

Section 9.14 Company Disclosure Schedule. The Company Disclosure Schedule is hereby incorporated and made a part hereof and is an integral part of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in each other Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule to which such information reasonably relates on its face or to which there is an explicit cross-reference to such information, item or matter, in each case, as though fully set forth in such other Section. Certain items and matters may be listed in the Company Disclosure Schedule for informational purposes only and may not be required to be listed therein by the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall the listing of items or matters in the Company Disclosure Schedule be deemed or interpreted to broaden, or otherwise expand the scope of, the representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement and, except as otherwise

expressly set forth in any Section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule, in no event will the listing or disclosure of any information or document in any such Section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule, or in the documents referred to or incorporated by reference in any Section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule, constitute or be deemed to imply any representation, warranty, undertaking, covenant or other obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries not expressly set out in this Agreement. The mere inclusion of an item in the Company Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty (a) shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material event, circumstance, change, effect, development or condition or that such item would have a Company Material Adverse Effect and any references to dollar amounts, will not be deemed to be an acknowledgement or representation or warranty that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement or otherwise, (b) shall not be construed as an admission or indication by the Company of any non-compliance with, or breach or violation of, any third party rights (including any Intellectual Property), any Contract or agreement or any Applicable Law or Order of any Governmental Authority, such disclosures having been made solely for the purposes of creating exceptions to the representations made herein or of disclosing any information required to be disclosed under this Agreement and (c) shall not represent a determination that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement require the consent of any third party. Any description of any agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement or other item set forth on any Section or Subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement or item.

Section 9.15 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by each other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in PDF form, or by any other electronic means designed to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will be deemed to have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures.

Section 9.16 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement or the other transactions documents contemplated hereby (the “Transaction Documents”), the parties agree and acknowledge that this Agreement and the Transaction Documents may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any breach (whether willful, intentional, unintentional or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith may only be made against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto or thereto (or their permitted assigns), as applicable, and (other than to the extent a party hereto) no Parent Related Parties (other than Kinderhook Industries, LLC under the Confidentiality

Agreement, the Equity Investor under the Equity Financing Letter or the Guarantee) or Company Related Parties shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities to the parties to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other Applicable Law, including under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 or other Environmental Laws), based on, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any breach (whether willful, intentional, unintentional or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each party hereby waives and releases all such claims, obligations, liabilities, causes of action or proceedings against any Parent Related Parties (other than those Parent Related Parties that are parties hereto) and Company Related Parties, as applicable. Without limiting the foregoing, no claim will be brought or maintained by any party hereto or any party to any of the Transaction Documents or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns against, and no Person shall seek to recover monetary damages from, any of the Parent Related Parties or Company Related Parties, and no recourse will be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach or nonperformance of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, except to the extent such Person is a party to such agreement.

Section 2.4 Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, written or printed notice stating the place, date, time, and, in the case of special meetings, the purpose or purposes, of such meeting, shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. All such notices shall be delivered, either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the board of directors, the chief executive officer or the secretary, and if mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at his, her or its address as the same appears on the records of the corporation. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

Section 2.5 Stockholders List. The officer having charge of the stock ledger of the corporation shall make, at least 10 days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

Section 2.6 Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, a majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.7 Adjourned Meetings. When a meeting is adjourned to another time and place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Section 2.8 Vote Required. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders, unless the question is one upon which by express provisions of an applicable law or of the Certificate of Incorporation a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Where a separate vote by class is required, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of such class present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class.

Section 2.9 Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or by the Certificate of Incorporation of the corporation or any amendments thereto and subject to Section 3 of Article VI hereof, every stockholder shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of common stock held by such stockholder.

Section 2.10 Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him, her or it by proxy. Every proxy must be signed by the stockholder granting the proxy or by his, her or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the corporation generally.

Section 2.11 Action by Written Consent. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken and bearing the dates of signature of the stockholders who signed the consent or consents, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than a majority of the shares entitled to vote, or, if greater, not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in the state of Delaware, or the corporation’s principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book or books in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested provided, however, that no consent or consents delivered by certified or registered mail shall be deemed delivered until such consent or consents are actually received at the registered office. All consents properly delivered in accordance with this section shall be deemed to be recorded when so delivered. No written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the corporation as required by this section, written consents signed by the holders of a sufficient number of shares to take such corporate action are so recorded. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

The board of directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.

Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the board of directors when required.

Section 3.9 Committee Rules.

Members of the board of directors or any committee thereof may participate in and act at any meeting of such board or committee through the use of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in the meeting pursuant to this section shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

Section 3.11 Waiver of Notice and Presumption of Assent. Any member of the board of directors or any committee thereof who is present at a meeting shall be conclusively presumed to have waived notice of such meeting except when such member attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Such member shall be conclusively presumed to have assented to any action taken unless his or her dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless his or her written dissent to such action shall be filed with the person acting as the secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall be forwarded by registered mail to the secretary of the corporation immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to any member who voted in favor of such action.

When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the board of directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his or her legal representative, to give the corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the corporation against any claim that may be made against the corporation on account of the loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate.

Section 6.3 Fixing a Record Date for Stockholder Meetings. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be the close of business on the next day preceding the day on which notice is given, or if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

Section 6.4 Fixing a Record Date for Action by Written Consent. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is required by statute, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by statute, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 6.5 Fixing a Record Date for Other Purposes. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment or any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purposes of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 6.6 Subscriptions for Stock. Unless otherwise provided for in the subscription agreement, subscriptions for shares shall be paid in full at such time, or in such installments and at such times, as shall be determined by the board of directors. Any call made by the board of directors for payment on subscriptions shall be uniform as to all shares of the same class or as to all shares of the same series. In case of default in the payment of any installment or call when such payment is due, the corporation may proceed to collect the amount due in the same manner as any debt due the corporation.

(d)

Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect thereto.

(e)

Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes, claims, causes of action or controversies based on, arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including the negotiations thereof) or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the applicable statute of limitations, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws rules of such State or any other jurisdiction.

(f)

Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that any Proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery, New Castle County, or if (and only if) that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over a particular matter, then in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, or if (and only if) such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over a particular matter, then in the Superior Court of Delaware, New Castle County, or if (and only if) such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, a Delaware State Court of competent jurisdiction sitting in New Castle County (the “Delaware Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts in respect of any legal or equitable Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or relating to enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any such Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that the Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereto agrees that notice or the service of process in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 13(a) or in any other manner permitted by law.

(g)

Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO (OR THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES, THEIR AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

(h)

Assignment, Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement; provided that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub of any of its obligations hereunder and no such assignment is reasonably expected to prevent, materially delay or materially impede the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(i)

Severability of Provisions. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or such party waives its rights under this Section 13(i) with respect thereto. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner, in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(j)

Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that (i) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened or anticipated breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the courts described in Section 13(f), without proof of damages or otherwise, prior to the

- 11 -

termination of this Agreement this being in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, and (ii) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither the Stockholder, Parent nor Merger Sub would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it waives the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and will not oppose the granting of an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that (x) the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or (y) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 13(j) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

(k)

Amendment. Subject to compliance with Applicable Law and NYSE’s rules and regulations, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Parent agrees not to amend or waive any provision of any Voting and Support Agreement being entered into between Parent and any other stockholder in any manner that is more favorable to such other stockholder than any similar provision in this Agreement is with respect to the Stockholder unless Parent shall provide the Stockholder with a right to have this Agreement amended and/or any provision hereof waived to the same extent and in the same manner as such other stockholder.

(l)

Binding Nature. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(m)

No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, the parties agree and acknowledge that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any breach (whether willful, intentional, unintentional or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith may only be made against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto (or their permitted assigns), as applicable, and (other than to the extent a party hereto) no Parent Related Parties shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities to the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other Applicable Law, including under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation

- 12 -

and Liability Act of 1980 or other Environmental Laws), based on, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any breach (whether willful, intentional, unintentional or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each party hereby waives and releases all such claims, obligations, liabilities, causes of action or proceedings against any Parent Related Parties (other than those Parent Related Parties that are parties hereto). Without limiting the foregoing, no claim will be brought or maintained by any party hereto or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns against, and no Person shall seek to recover monetary damages from, any of the Parent Related Parties, and no recourse will be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach or nonperformance of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement, except to the extent such Person is a party to this Agreement. The forgoing does not constitute a waiver or release of any other rights or claims that the Stockholder may have under any other agreement with any party hereto or any Parent Released Parties or the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(n)

No Presumption. This Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

(o)

No Agreement Until Executed. This Agreement shall not be effective unless and until (i) the Merger Agreement is executed by all parties thereto and (ii) this Agreement is executed by all parties hereto.

(p)

No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent or Merger Sub any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Stockholder Securities. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Stockholder Securities shall remain vested in and belong to Stockholder, and neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall have any authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern, or administer any of the policies or operations of the Company or exercise any power or authority to direct the Stockholder in the voting of any of the Stockholder Securities, except as otherwise specifically provided herein.
