NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, intending to be legally bound hereby, Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Stockholders and the Company hereby agree as follows:

(b)                                 During the period between the date of this Amendment and 5:01 p.m. (Eastern Time) on July 24, 2015 (the “Go Shop Extension Period”), the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(i) thereof without complying with the requirements set forth in subsections (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso in Section 6.4(d) of the Merger Agreement or in clause (i) of the second proviso in Section 6.4(d) of the Merger Agreement (beginning “provided, further”); it being agreed and acknowledged that the Company shall be required to comply with requirements of the second proviso in Section 6.4(d) (other than clause (i) thereof) in connection with the any termination of the Merger Agreement to enter into a Definitive Transaction Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Company intends to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(i) of the Merger Agreement after the Go Shop Extension Period, the Company shall comply with subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) of the first proviso in Section 6.4(d) of the Merger Agreement and clause (i) of the second proviso in Section 6.4(d) of the Merger Agreement in connection with any such action.

3.                                      Amendment to the Voting Agreement.  The term “Minimum Amount” in Section 2.1 of the Voting Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

Minimum Amount” means the amount of the Per Share Cash Consideration plus an amount equal to 2.5% of the Per Share Cash Consideration; provided, however, solely with respect to any Superior Proposal in respect of which the Company terminates the Merger Agreement during the Go Shop Extension Period, the Minimum Amount shall mean the amount of the Per Share Cash Consideration.

 

4.                                      Effect on Merger Agreement and Voting Agreement.  This Amendment shall amend and supersede the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the agreements specifically contemplated or referenced therein to the extent of the terms hereof.  The Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the agreements specifically contemplated therein, except as amended and superseded hereby, are and shall remain in full force and effect.  In the event of a conflict of the terms of this Amendment, on the one hand, and the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the agreements specifically contemplated or referenced therein, on the other hand, the terms of this Amendment shall control.  From and after the date hereof, (a) each reference in the Merger Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereof”, or “hereunder” or words of like import, and all references to the Merger Agreement in any and all agreements, instruments, documents, notes, certificates and other writings of every kind and nature shall be deemed to mean the Merger Agreement, as modified by this Amendment, and (b) each reference in the Voting Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereof”, or “hereunder” or words of like import, and all references to the Voting Agreement in any and all agreements, instruments, documents, notes, certificates and other writings of every kind and nature shall be deemed to mean the Voting Agreement, as modified by this Amendment.

 

5.                                      Entire Agreement.  This Amendment, together with the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the agreements specifically contemplated or referenced therein, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

6.                                      Choice of Law.  This Amendment and its validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation shall be interpreted, governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of laws thereof.
