MERGER CONSIDERATION; EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE

SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY AND MERGER SUB

3.1 Merger Consideration. The aggregate consideration (the “Merger Consideration”) shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.3 in an amount equal to:

(a) the amount of Five Million U.S. Dollars ($5,000,000) in cash (the “Cash Consideration”); plus

(b) the amount of Ten Million U.S. Dollars, to be paid by Parent in cash (such portion of the Merger Consideration, the “Additional Cash Consideration”) and/or an aggregate dollar value of Parent Common Stock (such portion of the Merger Consideration represented by Parent Common Stock, based on the Average Closing Price, the “Parent Stock Consideration”) in such proportions as determined by Parent in its sole discretion, provided that Parent shall notify the Company and the Noteholder Representative of such proportions no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date; plus or minus

(d) any Working Capital adjustment calculated in accordance with Section 3.8.

3.2 Estimates. At least three (3) Business Days before the Closing, the Company shall provide to Parent a statement (the “Estimated Statement of Working Capital”) setting forth the Working Capital as of the close of business on the most recently practicable date prior to the date of such delivery (but giving effect on a pro forma basis to payments made substantially simultaneously with the Closing) (the “Estimated Working Capital”), prepared in accordance with Schedule 1.1(c). The determination of the Estimated Working Capital will be subject to the consent of Parent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (and the parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to come to an agreement on the determination of the Estimated Working Capital). The “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment” shall be equal to the amount by which the Estimated Working Capital exceeds or is less than the Target Working Capital, (a) with such difference being added to the Cash Consideration if the Estimated Working Capital exceeds the Target Working Capital, and (b) being subtracted from the Cash Consideration if the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital.

3.3 Payment of Merger Consideration.

(a) Disbursement of Merger Consideration. At the Closing, in each case in accordance with the final Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet delivered pursuant to Section 3.5, Parent shall:

(i) (A) disburse to each Noteholder such Noteholder’s portion of the Cash Consideration plus the Additional Cash Consideration (if any) plus the amount payable for any fractional share pursuant to Section 3.3(c) (if any), and (B) issue or cause its transfer agent to issue to each Noteholder a certificate (or evidence of shares in book

entry form) representing that number of whole shares of the Parent Stock Consideration such holder is entitled to receive (if any), in each case as set forth in the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet based on the Average Closing Price; provided that prior to any such disbursement and/or issuance to any Noteholder, such Noteholder shall have delivered to Parent a properly completed Noteholder Release, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, which shall include, without limitation, from each Noteholder that is an Accredited Investor an acknowledgment and agreement to the provisions set forth in Section 7.9(b) and 7.9(c) (the “Noteholder Releases”);

(ii) (A) disburse to each Plan Participant such Plan Participant’s portion of the Cash Consideration plus the Additional Cash Consideration (if any) plus the amount payable for any fractional share pursuant to Section 3.3(c) (if any), and (B) issue or cause its transfer agent to issue to each Plan Participant a certificate (or evidence of shares in book entry form) representing that number of whole shares of the Parent Stock Consideration such holder is entitled to receive (if any), in each case as set forth in the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet based on the Average Closing Price; provided that prior to any such disbursement and/or issuance to any Plan Participant, such Plan Participant shall have delivered to Parent a properly completed release agreement in a form reasonable satisfactory to the Company and Parent, which shall include, without limitation, from each Plan Participant that is an Accredited Investor an acknowledgment and agreement to the provisions set forth in Section 7.9(b) and 7.9(c) (the “Employee Releases”);

(iii) disburse the Transaction Expenses to the providers set forth in the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet;

(iv) disburse an amount equal to the Debt Payoff to the relevant lenders set forth on the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet;

(v) disburse the aggregate amount of Employer Taxes applicable to the Management Incentive Plan Payments to the Company and, in turn, the Company shall cause the Company’s payroll agent to pay such amounts to the applicable Taxing Authorities;

(vi) issue and transfer shares of Parent Common Stock (based upon the Average Closing Price) equal to the General Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent, to be held in accordance with Article IX and the terms of the Escrow Agreement;

(vii) issue and transfer shares of Parent Common Stock (based upon the Average Closing Price) equal to the Specific Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent, to be held in accordance with Article IX and the terms of the Escrow Agreement; and

(viii) disburse the Noteholder Representative Reserve in accordance with Section 3.6.

(b) No Liability. None of the Surviving Corporation, Merger Sub, Parent or the Company shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(c) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the payment of the Parent Stock Consideration (if any), no dividends or other distributions of Parent shall relate to such fractional shares and such fractional shares will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent. In lieu of such fractional shares, Parent shall pay to each Noteholder or Plan Participant (at such time as Parent is required to deliver any of the Parent Stock Consideration to such holder) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the fractional share to which such Person would otherwise be entitled by (B) the Average Closing Price.

(d) Accredited Investors. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall have no obligation to issue shares of Parent Common Stock hereunder to any Person who (i) is not an Accredited Investor or (ii) has not made the agreements and acknowledgements set forth in Section 7.9 below; provided, however, that this Section 3.3(d) shall not operate to reduce the Merger Consideration and the portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(i) and Section 3.3(a)(ii) shall be reallocated among Noteholders and Plan Participants in a manner reasonably agreeable to Parent and the Noteholder Representative.

3.4 Effect on Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company, the holders of any shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), the holders of any shares of the Company’s preferred stock (the “Company Preferred Stock” and together with the Company Common Stock, the “Company Stock”), the holders of any shares of Merger Sub’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Merger Sub Common Stock”), or any other Person, the following shall occur:

(a) Exchange of Merger Sub Common Stock for Company Stock. The shares of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchangeable as a whole for the shares of Company Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time. Such shares of Company Stock shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding equity of the Surviving Corporation, so that Parent shall own all of the capital stock interests in, and equity of, the Surviving Corporation. Following the Effective Time, each share of Merger Sub Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

(b) Cancellation of Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and such shares of Company Stock shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each certificate (a “Certificate”) formerly representing any such shares of Company Common Stock (other than such shares held by the Company or any Company Subsidiary) shall thereafter be null and void.

(i) Each share of the Company’s Class B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof or any other Person, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange thereof.

(ii) Each share of the Company’s Class C Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof or any other Person, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange thereof.

(iii) Each share of the Company’s Class D Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof or any other Person, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange thereof.

(d) Cancellation of Treasury Stock. Each share of Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by the Company (as treasury stock or otherwise) shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange thereof.

(e) Cancellation of Options and Warrants. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and Contracts binding on the Company, and subject to the Company’s obligation in the subsequent sentence, (i) no Options or Warrants, whether vested or unvested, shall be assumed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, (ii) immediately upon the Effective Time, each then outstanding Option and Warrant, whether vested or unvested, shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof or any other Person, be cancelled for no consideration and shall no longer have any force or effect, and (iii) after the consummation of the Merger, (x) neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall have any payment or other Liability to any Optionholder or Warrantholder, and (y) Optionholders and Warrantholders shall have no right to receive any payment nor any right to acquire any interest in Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in each case, under any Option or Warrant. To the extent required by any Contract binding upon the Company with respect to any Option or Warrant, the Company shall take all requisite action so that, at the Effective Time, each such Option and Warrant shall be, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Optionholder or the Warrantholder (as the case may be), or any other Person, automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor, in a manner satisfactory to Parent.

3.5 Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet. At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company and the Noteholder Representative shall deliver to Parent an initial draft of the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet. The Aggregate Consideration

Spreadsheet is subject to the consent of Parent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (and the parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to come to an agreement on the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet) The failure to raise or the raising of any objections shall not be a waiver of or limit on any rights Parent may otherwise have at equity or at law. At the Closing, the Company and the Noteholder Representative shall deliver to Parent the final Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet setting forth the final calculation of the amounts for distribution in accordance with Section 3.3.

3.6 Noteholder Representative Reserve. At the Closing, Parent shall cause to be deposited, in an account designated by the Noteholder Representative, the Noteholder Representative Reserve. The Noteholder Representative Reserve (and earnings thereon) may be applied as the Noteholder Representative, in its sole discretion, determines appropriate to defray, offset, or pay any charges, fees, costs, liabilities or expenses of the Noteholder Representative incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The balance of the Noteholder Representative Reserve held pursuant to this Section 3.6, if any, and any income earned thereon, shall be distributed to the Noteholders who are entitled to receive the Merger Consideration by the Noteholder Representative, at such time as it determines in its sole discretion. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall have no liability or responsibility to the Noteholders with respect to the Noteholder Representative Reserve or the actions and responsibilities of the Noteholder Representative contemplated by this Section 3.6.

3.7 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Stock (collectively, the “Shares”) that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a stockholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the applicable provisions of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Stockholders”), shall not be cancelled without consideration, but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL), unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost rights to appraisal under the DGCL, as applicable. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, such holder’s Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been cancelled without consideration, in accordance with Section 3.4, without any interest thereon. Prior to Closing, the Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Shares, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL, as applicable, and received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal. The Company may voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment, without the consent or approval of Parent. From and after the Closing, the Noteholder Representative shall be entitled (but not obligated) to control the defense of any claims of Dissenting Stockholders and shall be entitled to pay the cost of defending, maintaining and settling any such claims of Dissenting Stockholders out of, and Parent shall be obligated to cause all such amounts to be released from, the General Escrow Fund. Prior to and after Closing, Parent shall give the Noteholder

Representative prompt written notice of any demands for appraisal received by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by Parent or the Surviving Corporation. Parent shall not (and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to not), except with the prior written consent of the Noteholder Representative, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

3.8 Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as practicable, but no later than eighty (80) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Noteholder Representative the Closing Statement and a certificate based on such Closing Statement setting forth Parent’s calculation of Closing Working Capital. The closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) shall present the actual Working Capital as of the close of business on the Closing Date prepared in accordance with Schedule 1.1(c) (“Closing Working Capital”).

(b) Subsequent to the Closing and upon reasonable notice, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall afford to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives of the Noteholder Representative reasonable access during normal working hours to the Surviving Corporation’s properties, books, Contracts and records reasonably necessary to evaluate the Closing Statement, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall furnish promptly to the Noteholder Representative, pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement, all such information concerning the business, properties, books, Contracts, records and personnel as the Noteholder Representative may reasonably request for the purpose of evaluating the Closing Statement. If the Noteholder Representative disagrees with Parent’s calculation of Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 3.8(a), the Noteholder Representative may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Statement to the Noteholder Representative, deliver a notice to Parent (a “Dispute Notice”) stating that the Noteholder Representative disagrees with such calculation and specifying in reasonable detail those items or amounts as to which the Noteholder Representative disagrees and the basis therefor. Upon expiration of such thirty-day period, if the Noteholder Representative has not provided a Dispute Notice in accordance with this Section 3.8(b), the Noteholder Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with the calculation of Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 3.8(a) and such calculation of Closing Working Capital shall be considered final and conclusive for purposes of this Section 3.8.

(c) If a Dispute Notice shall be duly delivered pursuant to Section 3.8(b), the Noteholder Representative and Parent shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the Closing Working Capital. If during such period the Noteholder Representative and Parent are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause an independent accounting firm as shall be mutually agreed by Parent and Noteholder Representative (the “Independent Accountant”) to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Working Capital (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Independent Accountant shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). Each of Parent and the Noteholder Representative agrees that it shall not engage, agree to engage, or directly or indirectly solicit the engagement of the

Independent Accountant to perform any services other than as the Independent Accountant pursuant hereto until the Closing Statement and Closing Working Capital have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.8. Each of Parent and the Noteholder Representative agrees to execute, if requested by the Independent Accountant, a reasonable engagement letter. Parent and the Noteholder Representative shall cooperate with the Independent Accountant and promptly provide all documents and information reasonably requested by the Independent Accountant. In making such calculation, the Independent Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement and Parent’s calculation of Closing Working Capital as to which the Noteholder Representative has indicated it disagrees in its Dispute Notice. The Independent Accountant shall deliver to the Noteholder Representative and Parent, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Independent Accountant), a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be deemed a final arbitration award that is binding on Parent and the Noteholder Representative, and neither Parent nor the Noteholder Representative shall seek further recourse to courts or other tribunals, other than to enforce such report. The cost of the Independent Accountant’s review and report shall be borne equally by Parent and the Noteholder Representative.

(d) Payments.

(i) If the Closing Working Capital as determined pursuant to this Section 3.8 is greater than the Estimated Working Capital, then (A) Parent shall pay to the Noteholder Representative (for distribution to the Noteholders and Plan Participants), the amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Working Capital and the Closing Working Capital, in Parent Common Stock, within ten (10) days of the date of such determination.

(ii) If the Closing Working Capital as determined pursuant to this Section 3.8 is less than the Estimated Working Capital (the “Parent Adjustment Amount”), Parent shall be entitled to withdraw from the General Escrow Fund, and the Noteholder Representative and Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to disperse from the General Escrow Fund and release to Parent, the amount of the Parent Adjustment Amount in Parent Common Stock.

(iii) If the Closing Working Capital as determined pursuant to this Section 3.8 is equal to the Estimated Net Working Capital, then for the purposes hereof there shall be no further adjustment to the Merger Consideration.

ARTICLE IV

4.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time as follows:

(a) At the election of either Parent or the Company on or after October 31, 2013 (the “End Date”), if the Closing shall not have occurred by the close of business on such date; provided, however, that Parent shall have the exclusive right to extend the End Date for two successive periods of thirty (30) days in the event that the conditions contained in Section 8.1

(d) by Parent, so long as Parent is not in material breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement, if there shall have been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company set forth in this Agreement, which breach would give rise to a failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.1(a), and is incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by the Company of notice of such breach from Parent;

(e) by the Company, so long as the Company is not in material breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement, if there shall have been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Parent set forth in this Agreement, which breach would give rise to a failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2(a) and is incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by Parent of notice of such breach from the Company; or

(f) by either the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 7.19(c).

4.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination pursuant to Section 4.1, all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, provided that each party shall remain liable for any breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement prior to such termination and provided further that the obligations of the parties as set forth in Section 7.7 (Confidentiality) shall continue to survive any such termination.

(b) Each of the Noteholders hereby acknowledges that the shares of Parent Common Stock are characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as they are being acquired from Parent in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under the Securities Act and applicable regulations under the Securities Act such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. Each of the Noteholders hereby acknowledges that they understand SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understand the resale limitations imposed by SEC Rule 144 and by the Securities Act.

Such additional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be delivered to the holders of the Parent Common Stock with respect to which the additional shares are issued.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, “Tax Losses” means any and all Losses attributable to Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (including the portion of any Straddle Period attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period) which Taxes shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any Taxes payable in connection with income from the cancellation of indebtedness arising as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby); provided, however, Tax Losses shall not include (i) any amounts clearly reflected as an accrual for current Taxes (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) on the Balance Sheet and (ii) any amounts attributable to U.

(a) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, the existing provisions of the Charter Documents of the Company and Company Subsidiaries concerning the elimination of liability and indemnification of directors and/or other persons shall not be amended in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any person that is as of the date hereof or the Effective Time covered as an indemnitee under any such elimination of liability or indemnification provisions, unless such amendment or modification shall be required by applicable Law and then only to the minimum extent required by such Law.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the indemnification and related rights hereunder shall be mandatory rather than permissible, and the Surviving Corporation shall, and Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly advance expenses in connection with such indemnification to the extent permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that, as provided in the existing provisions of the constituent documents of the Company and its subsidiaries, any D&O Indemnitees to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation to and the Surviving Corporation shall cause its subsidiaries to, procure and maintain in effect with respect to all periods prior to the Closing Date, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those present and former officers and directors of the Company and those present and former officers, directors and managers of the subsidiaries who are currently covered by directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies on terms no less favorable in the aggregate than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, however, that if any claim is asserted or made within such six (6) year period, such insurance shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof; provided, further, that, if such “tail” or other policies are not available at an

annual cost not greater than 150% (one hundred fifty percent) of the last annual premium paid prior to the date hereof under such policy (the “Insurance Cap”), then the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be obtained as much comparable insurance as can reasonably be obtained in its good faith judgment at a cost up to but not exceeding the Insurance Cap.

(c) The provisions of this Section 7.16 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each person released or entitled to indemnification, or other benefit hereunder, and each such person’s heirs, representatives, successors or assigns, it being expressly agreed that such persons shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.16, and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise. The Surviving Corporation shall not, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to, amend the provisions of this Section 7.16 in a manner that would adversely affect any such third party beneficiary without the prior written consent of such third party beneficiary.

(d) The Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to), from time to time following the Closing, execute and deliver such other documents and instruments and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Noteholder Representative or any D&O Indemnitee to implement the provisions of this Section 7.16.

(c) Other than with respect to claims for indemnification based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any Parent Fundamental Representation or fraud, the aggregate liability of Parent to the Noteholders for indemnification under Section 9.3(a) shall be $750,000, payable in Parent Common Stock only, with the value of any such Parent Company Stock being determined pursuant to Section 9.4(e) below.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section or otherwise in this Article IX or in this Agreement shall (i) prevent, restrict or limit the right of any party to obtain injunctive relief or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with a breach or alleged breach of covenant, (ii) restrict or limit any right of Parent under or with respect to an adjustment to the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.8, or (iii) affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Escrow Agreement.

(e) For purposes of funding any obligations of the Noteholders out of the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund, such obligations shall be paid solely in Parent Common Stock, provided that in determining such amounts, the price per share of such Parent Common Stock shall equal the greater of (i) the Average Closing Price, and (ii) the Average Closing Price determined in accordance with this Agreement but as of the thirty (30) trading days ending with the second trading day preceding the date on which payment is to be made from the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund, as applicable.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent or any Noteholder, as applicable, may satisfy, pay, and discharge all or any portion of any indemnification obligation to a Parent Indemnified Party or Noteholder Indemnified Party, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement (including if such Noteholder has liability to a Parent Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.4(a) after the General Escrow Fund has been reduced to $0 or if such Noteholder has liability to a Parent Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.4(b) after the Specific Escrow Fund has been reduced to $0) by delivering to such Parent Indemnified Party or Noteholder Indemnified Party, as applicable, shares of Parent Common Stock. For this purpose, each such share of Parent Common Stock shall be valued pursuant to Section 9.4(e) above.

(g) The restrictions set forth in Section 7.9 shall not apply to any transfers of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Section 9.4.

9.5 Dispute Resolution.

(a) If the Noteholder Representative or Parent, as applicable, shall object in writing to any claim or claims made to recover Losses from the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund, then the Noteholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the amount of such Losses. If the Noteholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, either Parent or the Noteholder Representative may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator mutually agreeable to Parent and the Noteholder Representative. In the event that, within thirty (30) days after submission of any dispute to arbitration, Parent and the Noteholder Representative cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, then, within fifteen (15) days after the end of such thirty (30)-day period, Parent and the Noteholder Representative shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. If one party but not the other fails to select an arbitrator during this fifteen (15)-day period, then the parties agree that the arbitration will be conducted by the one arbitrator selected by the party which has made such a selection.

(c) Any such arbitration shall be held in New York, New York, under the rules and procedures then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator(s) shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid, including the respective expenses of each party, the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American

Arbitration Association. The arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim for Losses shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s), and Parent shall be entitled to rely on, and make distributions from the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund, as applicable, in accordance with, the terms of such award, judgment, decree or order as applicable. Within ten (10) days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party. The Noteholder Representative shall be entitled to pay such amounts from the Noteholder Representative Reserve.

(d) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The foregoing arbitration provision shall apply to any dispute between the Noteholder Representative and the Parent Indemnified Party under this Article IX, whether relating to claims upon the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund or to the other indemnification obligations set forth in this Article IX.

9.6 Notice of Claims; Third Party Claims.

(a) If any third party shall notify any party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other party to this Agreement (the “Indemnifying Party”), then the Indemnified Party shall notify in writing each Indemnifying Party thereof promptly and provide details of the matter; provided, however, that no reasonable delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any Liability or obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced by the delay. Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice (or counsel selected by any insurer providing defense) reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within 15 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief (unless any insurer

providing defense also is defending such claims for equitable relief to the good faith reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnified Party), (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party, and (v) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. The Indemnified Party may participate in the defense of such claim with co-counsel of its choice to the extent that the Indemnified Party believes in its sole discretion that such matter shall affect its ongoing business; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (A) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (B) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel as provided herein or (C) a claim shall have been brought or asserted against the Indemnifying Party as well as the Indemnified Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised in writing by counsel that there may be one or more factual or legal defenses available to it that are in conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party, in which case such co-counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one separate principal counsel (and any appropriate local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, if the Indemnifying Party’s insurer is engaged in the defense of a claim, the Indemnified Party shall attempt, in good faith, to use reasonable efforts, in connection with any participation by the Indemnified Party in the defense of such claim, not to materially interfere with the insurer’s defense of the claim. If, within such 15-day period, the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such matter or fails to defend the matter in the manner set forth above, the Indemnified Party may defend against the matter in any manner that it reasonably may deem appropriate and may consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to the matter or enter into any settlement with respect to such matter without the consent of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against such claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer to the extent resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or caused by the claim to the fullest extent provided herein.

(b) If an Indemnified Party’s notice of indemnification does not relate to a claim or the commencement of an action or proceeding by a third party, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to object to the subject matter and the amount of the claim for indemnification set forth in such notice by delivering written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not so object within such 30-day period, it shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to the matters set forth in such notice of indemnification.

9.7 Net Losses; Mitigation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of any losses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to (a) any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Losses (provided that the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to procure, maintain or obtain any insurance policies or pursue recovery thereunder), (b) any recoveries obtained by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) from any other third party for such losses, less the loss incurred in obtaining such recoveries, and (c) any actual reduction in Taxes payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of

such Losses (which shall be net of any Taxes payable by any Indemnified Party in the year of such Loss as a result of any recovery from any Indemnifying Party, insurance, or other third party proceeds). If any such proceeds, benefits or recoveries are received by Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to any losses after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party (or such Affiliate) shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such proceeds, benefits or recoveries net of any costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount (up to the amount of the Indemnifying Person’s payment). With respect to any Losses incurred or suffered by a Indemnified Party, no liability shall attach to the Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses to the extent that the same Losses have been recovered by the Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Party, whether pursuant to the determination of Closing Working Capital or otherwise. Accordingly, the Indemnified Party may only recover once in respect of the same Loss.

9.8 Other Indemnification Provisions.

(a) The Parties agree to treat all indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article IX as adjustments to the aggregate Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they will not treat any portion of a payment to the Noteholders from the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund upon release of the amounts held pursuant to the terms of Article IX as a payment of interest to the Noteholders by Parent, except as otherwise required by a Taxing Authority.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.2, in the event of a termination of this Agreement prior to Closing, each of the Parent and the Company retain the right to be indemnified and held harmless by the other for any breaches of this Agreement by Parent, the Company or the Noteholders, prior to such termination, as applicable.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Noteholder Representative.

(a) Each Noteholder agrees that the Noteholder Representative shall be appointed as the Noteholder Representative hereunder to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize payment to any Parent Indemnified Party from the General Escrow Fund and/or the Specific Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims and Losses by a Parent Indemnified Party, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims or Losses, to receive payments on behalf of the Convertible Debt due and owing pursuant to this Agreement and acknowledge receipt thereof, to waive any breach or default of Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement following the Effective Time, to calculate the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet, to receive service of process on behalf of the Noteholders in connection with any claims under this Agreement or any related document or instrument, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or

appropriate in the judgment of the Noteholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement; provided, however that such agency shall apply only to matters affecting all or most of the Noteholders and any matter that affects only an individual Noteholder shall be addressed by Parent and such Noteholder. No bond shall be required of the Noteholder Representative, and the Noteholder Representative shall not receive any compensation for its services, but shall be entitled to reimbursement of its costs and expenses from the Noteholder Representative Reserve. Notices or communications to or from the Noteholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Noteholders, as the case may be.

(b) Except for intentional fraud, the Noteholder Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Noteholder Representative. Pursuant to the following sentence, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Noteholders shall be jointly and not severally obligated to indemnify the Noteholder Representative and hold the Noteholder Representative harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without intentional fraud on the part of the Noteholder Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Noteholder Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Noteholder Representative. At the time of distribution to the Noteholders of any proceeds remaining in the General Escrow Fund or the Specific Escrow Fund, the Noteholder Representative shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such proceeds amounts necessary to pay and reimburse fees and expenses of third parties incurred or expected to be incurred in connection with its role as Noteholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that the Noteholder Representative Reserve would be insufficient to pay and reimburse fees and expenses of third parties.

(c) The grant of authority provided for in this Section 10.1(a) is coupled with an interest and is being granted, in part, as an inducement to Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, and shall be irrevocable and survive the death, incompetency, bankruptcy or liquidation of the Company or any Noteholder, shall be binding on any successor thereto and shall survive the delivery of an assignment by any Noteholder of the whole or any fraction of his, her or its interest in the General Escrow Fund and/or the Specific Escrow Fund.

(d) In connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Noteholder Representative shall have the right at any time and from time to time to select and engage, at the cost and expense of the Noteholders (as contemplated by Section 10.1(b)), attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, advisors, consultants and clerical personnel and obtain such other professional and expert assistance, and maintain such records, as the Noteholder Representative may deem necessary or desirable and incur other out-of-pocket expenses related to performing its services hereunder.

(e) In dealing with this Agreement and any instruments, agreements or documents relating thereto, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Noteholder Representative hereunder or thereunder, (i) the Noteholder Representative and its agents, counsel, accountants and other representatives shall not assume any, and shall incur no, responsibility whatsoever (in each case, to the extent permitted by applicable Law) to the Noteholders, Parent or the Surviving Corporation by reason of any error

in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder or in connection with this Agreement or any such other agreement, instrument or document other than with respect to intentional fraud of the Noteholder Representative, and (ii) the Noteholder Representative shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue, and any error in judgment or other act or omission of the Noteholder Representative pursuant to such advice shall in no event subject the Noteholder Representative to liability to the Noteholders, Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

(f) All of the immunities and powers granted to the Noteholder Representative under this Agreement shall survive the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement.

(g) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Noteholder Representative, including an extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Article IV or Section 10.5, as applicable, shall constitute a decision of the Noteholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Noteholders; and Parent and the Surviving Corporation may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Noteholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Noteholders. Parent and the Surviving Corporation are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Noteholder Representative.

(h) The Noteholder Representative has all requisite power, authority and legal capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and each other agreement, document, or instrument or certificate contemplated by this Agreement or to be executed by the Noteholder Representative in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (together with this Agreement, the “Noteholder Representative Documents”), and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each of the Noteholder Representative Documents, the performance of its respective obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all required action on the part of the Noteholder Representative. This Agreement has been, and each of the Noteholder Representative Documents will be at or prior to the Closing, duly and validly executed and delivered by the Noteholder Representative and (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto and thereto) this Agreement constitutes, and each of the Noteholder Representative Documents when so executed and delivered will constitute, legal, valid and binding obligations of the Noteholder Representative enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

10.2 Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Waiver of a Jury Trial.

(a) Except for matters governed by Section 9.4(f), the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the State of New York over any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in

respect of such dispute or any suit, action proceeding related thereto may be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action or proceeding by delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.2(c).

10.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such state without giving effect to any choice of law provision or rule that would cause the application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

10.4 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules), the Transaction Documents, and the Confidentiality Agreement (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement and (b) except for the provisions of Sections 7.7 (Confidentiality), Section 7.16 (D&O Coverage), and Article IX, are not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies.

10.5 Amendment and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or changed by the parties hereto; provided, however, that there shall be made no amendment that by Law requires further approval by the Noteholders without such approval having been obtained. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement

shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. A termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.1 or an amendment or waiver of this Agreement shall, in order to be effective, require, in the case of Parent or the Company, action by its Board of Directors. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (ii) when sent by facsimile (with written confirmation of transmission) or (iii) one business day following the day sent by overnight courier (with written confirmation of receipt), in each case at the following addresses and facsimile numbers (or to such other address or facsimile number as a party may have specified by notice given to the other party pursuant to this provision):
