ARTICLE II

Conversion of Securities

SECTION 2.01.  Conversion of Capital Stock.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), or the holder of any shares of capital stock of Sub:

(a)  Capital Stock of Sub.  Each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Sub, par value $0.01 per share, shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b)  Cancelation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock.  All shares of Company Common Stock that are owned as treasury stock by the Company or owned by Parent or Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

(c)  Conversion of Company Common Stock.  Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and (ii) except as provided in Section 2.02, the Appraisal Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive $134.50 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”).  At the Effective Time such shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (a “Certificate”) or evidence of shares in book-entry form (“Uncertificated Shares”), in each case, that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The right of any holder of any share of Company Common Stock to receive the Merger Consideration shall be subject to withholding as provided in Section 2.04(f).

SECTION 2.02.  Appraisal Rights.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares (the “Appraisal Shares”) of Company Common Stock

3

issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (“Section 262”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01(c), but instead, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate or evidence in book entry form that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Appraisal Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262 or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Appraisal Shares under Section 262 shall cease and such Appraisal Shares shall be deemed to have been converted at the Effective Time into, and shall have become, the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01(c).  The Company shall serve prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, withdrawals of any such demands and any other related instruments served pursuant to the DGCL that are received by the Company, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, or otherwise negotiate, any such demands, or agree to do or commit to do any of the foregoing.

SECTION 2.03.  Adjustments.  If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding Company Common Stock shall occur by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split or combination (including a reverse stock split), exchange, merger, consolidation or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend thereon with a record date during such period, or any similar transaction or event, the Merger Consideration and any other similarly dependent items, as the case may be, shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted to provide the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.  Nothing in this Section 2.03 shall be construed as permitting the Company to take any action or enter into any transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

SECTION 2.04.  Exchange of Certificates.  (a)  Paying Agent.  Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent for the payment of the Merger Consideration upon surrender

4

of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares (the “Paying Agent”), and in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.  Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of holders of shares of Company Common Stock, cash in immediately available funds (such cash in immediately available funds, the “Exchange Fund”) in an amount necessary for the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c) upon surrender of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares, it being understood that all such funds shall be invested as directed by Parent and that any and all interest or other amounts earned with respect to funds made available to the Paying Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be turned over to Parent.  If for any reason (including losses) the Exchange Fund is inadequate to pay the amounts to which holders of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares shall be entitled under Section 2.01(c), Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the Exchange Fund additional cash in immediately available funds so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund has sufficient funds available for Paying Agent to make all such payments.

(b)  Exchange Procedure.  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than two business days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation or Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to (i) each holder of record of a Certificate (A) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall include an accompanying IRS Form W-9 or the applicable IRS Form W-8, shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates held by such person shall pass, only upon proper delivery of such Certificates to the Paying Agent and shall be in a customary form and have such other provisions as reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company) and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration and (ii) each holder of Uncertificated Shares (A) materials advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of its Uncertificated Shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and (B) a check in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled.  Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancelation to the Paying Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash equal to the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c), and each Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.  In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer books of the Company, payment of the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such

5

transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.  Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.04, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the amount of cash, without interest, into which the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate, as applicable, have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(c).  No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.

(c)  No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock.  All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of a Certificate in accordance with the terms of this Article II 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.  After the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.  If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for transfer or any other reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.  No cash payment with respect to the Merger Consideration shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the surrender of such Certificate in accordance with this Section 2.04.

(d)  No Liability.  None of Parent, Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any Merger Consideration that would otherwise have been payable to a holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares which is delivered to a public official in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares has not received the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to under this Section 2.04, and such Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, such Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, immediately prior to such date, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(e)  Lost Certificates.  If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, defaced or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen, defaced or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct as indemnity against any claim that may

6

be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall pay the Merger Consideration in respect of such lost, stolen, defaced or destroyed Certificate.

(f)  Withholding Rights.  Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable to any person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or any applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law.  To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

(g)  Termination of Exchange Fund.  At any time following the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) remaining in the Exchange Fund or that had otherwise been made available to the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and that have not been disbursed to holders of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, and thereafter, subject to the time limitations in Section 2.04(d), such holders shall be entitled to look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the payment of any Merger Consideration that may be payable upon surrender of any Certificates held by such holders or to holders of Uncertificated Shares, as applicable, as determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon.

both) under, any provision of (i) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organizational documents) of Parent or Sub, (ii) any Contract or Permit to or by which Parent or Sub is a party or bound or to or by which their respective properties or assets are subject or bound or otherwise under which Parent or Sub has rights or benefits or (iii) subject to the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following sentence, any Law applicable to Parent or Sub or their respective properties or assets (assuming receipt of the Stockholder Approval and the adoption of this Agreement by Parent, as the sole stockholder of Sub), other than any such conflicts, violations, breaches or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.  No Consent of or from, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notice to, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to Parent or Sub in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Sub, the consummation by Parent and Sub of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the compliance by Parent and Sub with the provisions of this Agreement, except for (v) the filing of a premerger notification and report form and the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and the filings and receipt, termination or expiration, as applicable, of such other approvals or waiting periods required under any other applicable competition, merger control, antitrust or similar Law, (w) the filing by the Company with the SEC of the Proxy Statement and such reports under the Exchange Act as may be required in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (x) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of other jurisdictions in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is qualified to do business, (y) any filings required under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange and (z) such other Consents the failure of which to be obtained or made, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(c)  Information Supplied.  None of the information supplied or to be supplied by Parent or Sub specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the time it is filed with the SEC, at the date the Proxy Statement is first mailed to the Company’s stockholders, at the time of the Stockholders Meeting or at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, as amended or supplemented at such date or time, 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, except that, for the avoidance of doubt, no representation is made by Parent or Sub with respect to statements made

40

or incorporated by reference therein based on information supplied by the Company for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement.

(d)  Interim Operations of Sub.  Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has engaged in no business other than in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)  No Ownership of Company Capital Stock.  Neither Parent nor Sub, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries (nor any of their respective “Associates” as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL), is or has been during the past three years an “interested stockholder” of the Company as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL.  Neither Parent nor Sub nor any of their respective Subsidiaries is, nor during the two-year period immediately prior to the date of this Agreement has been, the beneficial owner of Company Common Stock representing 10% or more of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock.

(f)  Financing.  Parent will have on the Closing Date sufficient funds available (through credit arrangements or otherwise) to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration and all related fees and expenses required to be paid by Parent and the Surviving Corporation.  Parent has delivered to the Company true and complete copies of (i) an executed commitment letter, from Parent’s Financing Sources (such commitment letter or any replacement commitment letter as contemplated by Section 5.07(a), the “Commitment Letter”) pursuant to which Parent’s Financing Sources have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions therein, to provide the debt financing for the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the debt financing pursuant to the Commitment Letter or otherwise shall be referred to herein as the “Financing”), and (ii) any fee letter associated with the Commitment Letter (the “Fee Letter”) (it being understood that any such fee letter has been redacted as required by the counterparties thereto and to omit fee amounts and the terms of the “market flex” items in a customary manner).  As of the date of this Agreement, the Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Parent, and, to the knowledge of Parent, each of the other parties thereto, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including all Laws related to fraudulent transfers), reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to the effect of general principles of equity.  The Commitment Letter has not been amended or modified on or prior to the date of this Agreement and as of the date of this Agreement, no such amendment or modification is contemplated by Parent (except as described in the Fee Letter), and as of the date of this Agreement, the respective

41

commitments contained in the Commitment Letter have not been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded in any respect.  As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred or circumstance exists which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent or, to the knowledge of Parent, any of the other parties thereto, under the Commitment Letter.  As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing contemplated in the Commitment Letter will not be satisfied or that the Financing will not be made available to Parent on the Closing Date. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no side letters or other contracts directly related to the Financing to which Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a party other than the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and any related customary engagement letters and confidentiality agreements.  As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has fully paid, or caused to be fully paid, any and all commitment or other fees which are due and payable on or prior to the date of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter.

(g)  Investigation by Parent.  Parent has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the businesses, assets, condition, operations and prospects of the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.  Parent acknowledges that, except for the representations and warranties of the Company expressly set forth in Section 3.01, none of the Company nor any of its Representatives makes any representation or warranty, either express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information provided or made available to Parent or any of its Representatives.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company in Section 3.01, none of the Company nor any of its Representatives or any other person has made a representation or warranty to Parent with respect to (i) any projections, estimates or budgets of future results or future financial condition relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or (ii) any material, documents or information relating to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses made available to Parent or its Representatives in any “data room” or otherwise.

SECTION 4.02.  No Solicitation.  (a)  The Company (i) shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, and shall not authorize or permit its or their Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (A) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, or take any other action to knowingly facilitate, any Takeover Proposal or any inquiries or the making of any proposal that would reasonably be expected to result in or lead to a Takeover Proposal or (B) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person (or any Representative thereof) any information with respect to or in connection with, or otherwise knowingly cooperate with any person (or any Representative thereof) with respect to, any Takeover Proposal or any inquiries or proposals that would reasonably be expected to result in or lead to a Takeover Proposal, (ii) shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing activities, discussions and negotiations with any person conducted heretofore with respect to any Takeover Proposal or any inquiries or proposals that would reasonably be expected to result in or lead to a Takeover Proposal and (iii) shall promptly, and in any event within two days following the date of this Agreement, request, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, the prompt return or written acknowledgment of destruction of all confidential information previously furnished to any person within 24 months prior to the date of this Agreement for the purposes of evaluating a possible Takeover Proposal to the extent that the Company is entitled to have such documents returned or destroyed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to release any person from or waive any standstill provision or similar provision with respect to any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party solely to the extent that (x) such provision would otherwise prohibit the counterparty thereto from making a confidential Takeover Proposal directly to the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with this Section 4.02 and (y) the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith,

47

after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law.  Except to the extent otherwise permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, enforce the standstill provisions of any such agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.02 to the contrary, at any time prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written unsolicited Takeover Proposal received after the execution of this Agreement which did not result from a material breach of this Section 4.02, (x) the Company and its Representatives may contact the person proposing such Takeover Proposal or the Representatives of such person solely to clarify the terms and conditions thereof and (y) if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and Citigroup or another financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that such Takeover Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law, the Company may, and may permit and authorize its Subsidiaries and its Representatives and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, in each case subject to compliance with Section 4.02(c) and the other provisions of this Agreement, (1) furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) pursuant to a confidentiality agreement which contains terms that are no less restrictive of such person than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”); provided that all such information had been provided, or is concurrently provided, to Parent, and (2) participate in discussions or negotiations with, and only with, the person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Takeover Proposal.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.02(a) by any Subsidiary of the Company or any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.02(a) by the Company.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Takeover Proposal” means any proposal or offer from any person or “group” (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) (other than Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) providing for, in one transaction or a series of transactions, any (I) merger, consolidation, binding share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving the Company or (II) direct or indirect acquisition, including by way of any merger, consolidation, tender offer, exchange offer, stock acquisition, asset acquisition, binding share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, license agreement or similar transaction, of (A) assets or businesses that constitute or represent 20% or more of the total revenue, net income, EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization) or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (B) 20% or more of the

48

outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or of any class of capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, one or more of the Subsidiaries of the Company which, in the aggregate, directly or indirectly hold the assets or businesses referred to in clause (A) above.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Superior Proposal” means any binding bona fide unsolicited written offer which did not result from a material breach of this Section 4.02(a) made by any person (other than Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) that, if consummated, would result in such person (or, in the case of a direct merger between such person and the Company, the stockholders of such person) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the Company Common Stock or the outstanding voting power of the Company or all or substantially all the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and which offer, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and Citigroup or another financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation), (1) is more favorable from a financial point of view to the stockholders of the Company than the consideration payable in the Merger (taking into account all of the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such Superior Proposal or otherwise)) and (2) is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal.

(b)  Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (or shall agree or resolve to) (i) (A) withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent or Sub, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent or Sub, the recommendation or declaration of advisability by such Board of Directors or any such committee of this Agreement or the Merger or (B) recommend, declare advisable or propose to recommend or declare advisable the approval or adoption of any Takeover Proposal or resolve or agree to take any such action, or adopt or approve any Takeover Proposal (any action in this clause (i) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) cause or permit the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement (each, an “Acquisition Agreement”) constituting or related to, or which is intended to or would reasonably be expected to result in or lead to, any Takeover Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement).  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Stockholder Approval, the Board of Directors of the Company may (x) other than in connection with a Takeover Proposal, effect an Adverse Recommendation Change under clause (A) of the definition thereof, or (y) in response to a Superior Proposal, effect an

49

Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(f) to accept such Superior Proposal, in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), only if the Board of Directors of the Company has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and Citigroup or another financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, and after giving effect to all of the adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that have been offered in writing by Parent in accordance with this Section 4.02(b), that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided that the Board of Directors of the Company may not effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(f) unless (1) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have first provided written notice to Parent (an “Adverse Change Notice”) at least three business days prior to such action that it is prepared to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor, and, if such action is in response to a Superior Proposal, attaching the most current version of any written agreement relating to the transaction that constitutes such Superior Proposal (including any financing thereof, to the extent such financing agreements are available) and (2) upon the end of such notice period, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have (aa) considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by Parent by the end of such notice period and (bb) determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and Citigroup or another financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that (I) in the case of a Superior Proposal, the offer previously constituting a Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and (II) the failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or modification to the financial terms or conditions or other material terms of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Adverse Change Notice and a new notice period under clause (1) of this proviso shall commence (except that the three business day period referred to in clause (1) of this proviso shall instead be a two business day period)).  The Company agrees that, during the three or two business day period prior to its effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change or termination pursuant to Section 7.01(f), the Company and its Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives (to the extent Parent desires and is willing to do so) regarding any revisions to the terms of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent.

(c)  In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 4.02, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event within 24 hours after the receipt thereof, advise Parent orally and in writing of (i) any Takeover Proposal or any request for information or inquiry that the Company reasonably believes could lead to or contemplates a Takeover Proposal and (ii) the material terms and conditions of such Takeover Proposal, request or inquiry (including

50

any subsequent amendment or other modification to such terms and conditions and, if applicable, copies of any written requests, inquiries, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements) and the identity of the person making any such Takeover Proposal, request or inquiry.  Commencing upon the provision of any notice referred to above, the Company (or its outside counsel) shall keep Parent (or its outside counsel) informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status, including any change to the material terms and conditions, of such Takeover Proposal, request or inquiry, and the status of any discussions or negotiations with respect thereto.

(d)  Nothing contained in this Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or complying with Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, failure so to disclose would be inconsistent with applicable Law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any such position or disclosure would otherwise have under this Agreement.

ARTICLE V

definitive form to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after, but in any event not more than one business day after, the Proxy Statement is cleared by the SEC for mailing to the Company’s stockholders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 (including any oral response to comments), the Company (x) shall provide Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (including any proposed oral response to comments), (y) shall include in such document or response all comments reasonably proposed by Parent and (z) shall not file or mail such document, or respond to the SEC, prior to receiving the approval of Parent or its counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  If, at any time prior to the Stockholders Meeting, any information relating to the Company, Parent or any of their respective affiliates, officers or directors should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement so that the Proxy Statement shall not 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, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto, and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be filed with the SEC as promptly as practicable and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company.

(b)  The Company agrees that the Proxy Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and that none of the information included or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date the Proxy Statement is filed with the SEC or mailed to the stockholders of the Company or at the time of the Stockholders Meeting, or at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, 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, except that no covenant is made by the Company with respect to statements made in the Proxy Statement based on information supplied in writing by or on behalf of Parent specifically for inclusion or incorporation for reference therein.  Parent agrees that none of such information will, at the date the Proxy Statement is filed with the SEC or mailed to the stockholders of the Company or at the time of the Stockholders Meeting, or at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, 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.  The Proxy Statement mailed to the holders of Company Common Stock

(c)  The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders for the sole purpose of obtaining the Stockholder Approval and voting on a proposal to adjourn the Stockholders Meeting (and, if applicable, the advisory vote required by Rule 14a-21(c) under the Exchange Act in connection therewith), which meeting the Company shall, absent any Legal Restraint that has the effect of preventing such action, cause to occur no later than the 35th calendar day (or, if such calendar day is not a business day, on the first business day subsequent to such calendar day) immediately following the date that the mailing of the Proxy Statement has been substantially completed (the “Stockholders Meeting”); provided that the Stockholders Meeting shall be held no earlier than the 50th calendar day after the date of this Agreement; and provided, further, that the Company, after consultation with Parent, may postpone or adjourn, or make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of, the Stockholders Meeting if the Company reasonably believes that (i)(A) the Company is unable to obtain a quorum of its stockholders at such time or (B) the Company will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, (ii) it is necessary to postpone or adjourn the Stockholders Meeting to ensure that any required amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement is mailed to holders of Company Common Stock within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Stockholders Meeting or (iii) such postponement or adjournment is required by Law or a court or other Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction in connection with any actions in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or has been requested by the SEC or its staff, so long as, in the case of any postponement or adjournment under clause (i) of this Section 5.01(c), the Stockholders Meeting is not postponed or adjourned more than an aggregate of 30 calendar days without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  In the event that during the three business days prior to the date that the Stockholders Meeting is then scheduled to be held, the Company delivers a notice of an intent to make an Adverse Recommendation Change, Parent may direct the Company to postpone the Stockholders Meeting for up to five business days and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company Certificate and the Company Bylaws, the Company shall promptly, and in any event no later than the next business day, postpone the Stockholders Meeting in accordance with Parent’s direction, subject to the Company’s right to postpone the Stockholders Meeting for a longer period pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.  The notice of the Stockholders Meeting shall state that a proposal to adopt this Agreement will be considered at the Stockholders Meeting.  Subject to Section 4.02(b), (x) the Board of Directors of the Company shall recommend to holders of Company Common Stock that

53

they adopt this Agreement and shall include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement and (y) the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit the Stockholder Approval.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees that its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.01(c) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company or any other person of any Takeover Proposal or, other than with respect to the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 5.01(c), the making of any Adverse Recommendation Change.  The Company shall provide updates to Parent with respect to the proxy solicitation for the Stockholders Meeting (including interim results) as reasonably requested by Parent.

SECTION 5.02.  Access to Information; Confidentiality.  (a)  The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent and to Parent’s Representatives reasonable access upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours (under supervision of appropriate personnel and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries) during the period prior to the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement to all their respective properties, assets, books, records, Contracts, Permits, documents, information, directors, officers and employees, and during such period the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish as promptly as reasonably practicable to Parent any information concerning its business as Parent may reasonably request.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to afford access or furnish information to the extent (i)  relating to the minutes of the Company’s Board of Directors or any committees thereof (including any presentations or other materials prepared by or for the Company’s Board of Directors or any committee thereof) where the Company’s Board of Directors or any such committee thereof discussed this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any similar transaction with any other person, including any Takeover Proposal, (ii)  the Company determines in good faith that affording such access or furnishing such information would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or to furnish such information in a manner that does not jeopardize the attorney-client privilege), (iii)   that affording such access or furnishing such information would violate applicable Law or result in significant antitrust risk for the Company or its Subsidiaries or (iv)  such request involves conducting subsurface, invasive or environmental sampling or testing, including with respect to building materials and indoor air quality.  No investigation by Parent or any of its Representatives and no receipt of information by Parent or any of its Representatives shall operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other provision of this Agreement, or the obligations of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the

54

conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement.  Except as required by any applicable Law, Parent will hold, and will direct its Representatives to hold, any and all information received from the Company confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b)  Subject to applicable Law, the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate to ensure an orderly transition and integration process in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement in order to minimize the disruption to, and preserve the value of, the business of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries.

(c)  Immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the parties hereto, Parent, as the sole stockholder of Sub, will adopt this Agreement.

(d)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries shall cooperate, and shall cause its affiliates and Representatives to reasonably cooperate, with Parent in all Tax matters, including by maintaining and making available to Parent and its affiliates all books and records relating to Taxes.

(e)  Parent and the Company shall take the actions set forth in Section 5.02(e) of the Company Letter.

SECTION 5.03.  Reasonable Best Efforts; Consultation and Notice.  (a)   Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using its reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following: (i) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions and Consents from, and the giving of any necessary notices to, Governmental Entities and other persons and the making of all necessary registrations, declarations and filings (including filings under the HSR Act (which each of the parties hereto shall file, or cause to be filed, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, but not later than fifteen business days after the date hereof, such date to be determined by Parent in consultation with the Company) and other registrations, declarations and filings with, or notices to, Governmental Entities, that may be required under the HSR Act or other applicable antitrust, competition or pre-merger notification or trade regulation Laws of any jurisdiction (collectively, “Review Laws”), if any), (iii) the taking of all reasonable steps to provide any supplemental information requested by any Governmental Entity, including participating in meetings with officials of such entity in the course of its review of this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement

55

and (iv) the taking of all reasonable steps as may be necessary to avoid any Proceeding by any Governmental Entity or third party.  In connection with and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Company and its Board of Directors shall, if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or any of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, take all actions necessary to ensure that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Parent or its Subsidiaries (including Sub and, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) be required to agree to or accept (A) any prohibition of or limitation on its or their ownership, or any limitation that would affect its or their operation, of any portion of their respective businesses or assets, including after giving effect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) divest, hold separate or otherwise dispose of any portion of its or their respective businesses or assets, including after giving effect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (C) any limitation on the ability of Parent or its Subsidiaries to acquire or hold or exercise full rights of ownership of any capital stock of the Company or its Subsidiaries, including after giving effect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (D) any other limitation on its or their ability to, or the manner in which they, operate, conduct or control their respective businesses or operations, including after giving effect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (any such action or limitation described in clauses (A) through (D), a “Restriction”), other than Permitted Restrictions, which Permitted Restrictions Parent or its Subsidiaries shall be required to agree if and only to the extent ultimately necessary to obtain pre-merger clearance from the U.S. and E.U. antitrust and competition law authorities (specifically, for (1) any waiting period applicable to the Merger under the HSR Act to have been terminated or expired and (2) the European Commission to have issued a decision finding the Merger to be compatible with the common market under the Council Regulation, or to have been deemed to have done so pursuant to Article 10(6) of the Council Regulation), provided that in the aggregate any such Permitted Restrictions would not have or reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Restrictions” shall mean (x) Restrictions of the type described in clause (B) or (C) of the definition thereof solely involving the businesses or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries which, in the aggregate, generated no more than $450,000,000 of the consolidated revenues of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended

56

December 31, 2016 (any such Restrictions described in this clause (x), “Required Divestitures”) and (y) Restrictions of the type described in clause (A) or (D) of the definition thereof which are applied solely against and solely involve and impact the operations, businesses and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and which would not, individually or in the aggregate, when combined with the impact of any Required Divestitures, have or reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  For the avoidance of doubt, Parent is not required to agree to or accept any Restriction that involves, applies to or impacts the operations, businesses or assets of Parent or any of its affiliates other than Permitted Restrictions with respect to the Surviving Corporation and Subsidiaries of the Surviving Corporation.  In no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be permitted to commit or agree to any Restriction without Parent’s prior written consent.  Nothing in this Section 5.03(a) shall require any party to take or agree to take any action with respect to its business or operations pursuant to this Section 5.03(a) unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the Closing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Parent or any of its Subsidiaries be obligated to litigate or participate in the litigation of any Proceeding brought by or against any Governmental Entity in connection with obtaining any Consent from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent shall determine the strategy to be pursued for obtaining and lead the effort to obtain all necessary actions or nonactions and Consents from Governmental Entities in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Company shall take all reasonable actions to support Parent in connection therewith. Each of Parent and the Company shall (i) reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with any filing or submission with any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any Consents from any Governmental Entity in connection therewith and any investigation or other inquiry related thereto and in connection with resolving any such investigation or inquiry with respect to any such filing or the Merger, (ii) not extend any waiting or suspension period under any applicable Review Laws or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity not to consummate the Merger, including any timing agreements or agreements to pull and re-file their HSR filing, except with the prior written consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (iii) respond as promptly as practicable to any applicable inquiries or requests received from any Governmental Entity for additional information or documentation, (iv) promptly make any applicable further filings or information

57

submissions pursuant thereto that may be necessary or advisable and (v) promptly make any requisite filings or submissions required under any applicable Review Laws. Each of Parent and the Company shall (A) promptly notify the other party of any written or oral communication to that party or its Subsidiaries or Representatives from any Governmental Entity regarding the parties’ collaborative efforts to obtain the Consents, (B) subject to applicable Law and to the extent reasonably practicable, permit the other party to review and comment on any written communication regarding such efforts prior to providing such communication to any Governmental Entity and (C) to the extent reasonably practicable, not agree to participate, or permit its Subsidiaries or Representatives or, in the case of the Company, the Controlled Affiliate, to participate, in any substantive meeting or discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or inquiry concerning Consents to the Merger unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity and reasonably practicable, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate. Without limiting the foregoing, neither party shall make any filings, submissions or written communications to any Governmental Entity to obtain the Consents without first providing a written copy of such filing, submission or communication to the other party (or as appropriate to such party’s outside counsel) and allowing the other party a reasonable opportunity to provide comments on such filing, submission or communication prior to submission. Parent and the Company covenant and agree to incorporate all reasonable comments of the other party (or as appropriate such party’s outside counsel) with respect to such filings, submissions and communications prior to delivery of the same to any Governmental Entity.

(c)  (i)  In connection with the continuing operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, subject to applicable Law, the Company shall consult in good faith on a reasonably regular basis with Parent to report material, individually or in the aggregate, operational developments, the general status of relationships with material customers, suppliers and resellers, the general status of ongoing operations and other matters reasonably requested by Parent pursuant to procedures reasonably requested by Parent and in a manner consistent with (A) any organizational or personal conflict of interest mitigation plans, including firewalls, entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject and (B) applicable confidentiality obligations, including the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that no such consultation shall operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other provision in this Agreement, or the obligations of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement.

58

(ii)  Except as prohibited by applicable Law, the Company shall promptly notify Parent in writing of:

(A)   (1) any representation or warranty made by Company contained in Section 3.01 becoming untrue or inaccurate such that the condition set forth in Section 6.02(a) would not be satisfied, (2) the failure of the Company to perform in any material respect any obligation to be performed by it under this Agreement such that the condition set forth in Section 6.02(b) would not be satisfied or (3) the occurrence of any change, development, event, effect, condition, occurrence, action or omission that would reasonably be expected to result in the condition set forth in Section 6.02(d) not being satisfied;

(B)  any written notice or other communication from any person (other than a Governmental Entity) alleging that notice to or Consent of such person is required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to obtain such Consent would be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent;

(C)  any material written notice or other material communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and a copy of any such notice or communication shall be furnished to Parent, together with the Company’s written notice;

(D)  any material written notice or other material communication from any customer, distributor, supplier or reseller to the effect that such customer, distributor, supplier or reseller is terminating or otherwise adversely modifying its relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(E)  any Proceedings commenced or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, or any circumstance that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Proceeding, against or involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to Section 3.01(h) or that relate to the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

59

provided, however, that no such notification shall operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other provision in this Agreement, or the obligations of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; provided further, that the failure to deliver any such notification, in and of itself, shall not result in the failure of, or otherwise affect, any of the conditions set forth in Article VI.

(iii)  Except as prohibited by applicable Law, Parent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of:

(A)  (1) any representation or warranty made by Parent or Sub contained in Section 3.02 becoming untrue or inaccurate such that the condition set forth in Section 6.03(a) would not be satisfied or (2) the failure of Parent or Sub to perform in any material respect any obligation to be performed by such party under this Agreement such that the condition set forth in Section 6.03(b) would not be satisfied;

(B)  any written notice or other communication from any person (other than a Governmental Entity) alleging that notice to or Consent of such person is required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of the Parent or one of its Subsidiaries to obtain such Consent would be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent; and

(C)  any Proceedings commenced or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened, against or involving Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that relate to the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; provided further, that the failure to deliver any such notification, in and of itself, shall not result in the failure of, or otherwise affect, any of the conditions set forth in Article VI.

(d)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense of any litigation against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective directors or officers relating to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will

60

obtain the prior written consent of Parent prior to settling or satisfying any such claim, it being understood and agreed that this Section 5.03(d) shall not give Parent the right to direct such defense.

SECTION 5.04.  Company Equity-Based Awards.  (a)  Effective as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of a Company Stock Option, except as set forth in Section 5.04(f) below, each then outstanding Company Stock Option (whether or not then vested and exercisable) (i) shall automatically become fully vested and (ii) shall terminate and be converted automatically into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to (A) the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested, and (2) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price applicable to such shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, less (B) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “Option Merger Consideration”).  For the avoidance of doubt, if the exercise price applicable to shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Stock Option shall terminate and be canceled in exchange for no consideration.  As of the Effective Time, each holder of Company Stock Options shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Option Merger Consideration related to the applicable Company Stock Option, without interest, payable in accordance with this Section 5.04.

(b)  Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Company Restricted Shares, except as set forth in Section 5.04(f) below, each then outstanding Company Restricted Share (i) shall automatically become fully vested and all restrictions with respect thereto shall lapse and (ii) shall terminate and be converted automatically into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to (A) the Merger Consideration, less (B) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “Restricted Share Merger Consideration”).  As of the Effective Time, each holder of Company Restricted Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Restricted Share Merger Consideration for each Company Restricted Share, without interest, payable in accordance with this Section 5.04.

(c)  Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Company Performance Shares, except as set forth in Section 5.04(f) below:

(i)  in the event the Closing occurs prior to the date on which the Company Performance Shares granted in 2015 (the “2015 Company Performance Shares”), would vest in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, each

61

then outstanding 2015 Company Performance Share (A) shall automatically become vested based on deemed achievement of performance metrics at the greater of target performance for all applicable metrics or actual performance for all applicable metrics for the performance period (without pro-ration) and all restrictions with respect thereto shall lapse and (B) shall terminate and be converted automatically into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to (1) the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Performance Share immediately prior to the Effective Time (determined after taking into account the vesting set forth in Section 5.04(c)(i)(A) and rounded up or down to the nearest share), and (y) the Merger Consideration, less (2) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “2015 Performance Share Merger Consideration”); and

(ii)  each then outstanding Company Performance Share that was granted in 2016 or 2017 (the “Subsequent Period Company Performance Shares”) (A) shall automatically become vested based on deemed achievement of performance metrics at target performance for all applicable performance metrics with pro-ration in accordance with the applicable Company Stock Plan and the award agreements thereunder and (B) shall terminate and be converted automatically into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to (1) the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Performance Share immediately prior to the Effective Time (determined after taking into account the vesting set forth above), and (y) the Merger Consideration, less (2) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “Subsequent Period Performance Share Merger Consideration” and together with the 2015 Performance Share Merger Consideration, the “Performance Share Merger Consideration”).  With respect to each Subsequent Period Company Performance Share that is forfeited due to pro-ration, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall grant each holder thereof who remains an employee as of the grant date with an award of Parent restricted stock rights with respect to a number of shares of Parent common stock with a value equal to two times the value of such forfeited Company Performance Shares (for the avoidance of doubt, calculated at target performance multiplied by the Merger Consideration) (the “Parent Retention Grant”).  One-half of the Parent Retention Grant shall vest on March 1, 2019 and the remaining one-half of the Parent Retention Grant shall vest on March 1, 2020, in each case subject to continued employment with Parent and its Subsidiaries as of such dates; provided, however, that holders of Parent Retention Grants who are involuntarily terminated other than for cause prior to March 1, 2019 shall vest in half of the Parent Retention Grant upon such termination.

62

(iii)  As of the Effective Time, each holder of Company Performance Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Performance Share Merger Consideration for each Company Performance Share or the Parent Retention Grant, if applicable, without interest, payable in accordance with this Section 5.04.

(d)  Effective as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Company Deferred Stock Units, except as set forth in Section 5.04(f) below, each then outstanding Company Deferred Stock Unit (i) shall automatically become fully vested and (ii) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive a cash payment equal to (A) the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Deferred Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (2) the Merger Consideration, less (B) any applicable withholding for Taxes, payable in accordance with, and subject to, the deferral elections applicable to such Company Deferred Stock Units as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e)  Effective as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Company Phantom Stock Units, each then outstanding Company Phantom Stock Unit (i) shall automatically become fully vested and (ii) shall represent the right to receive a cash payment equal to (A) the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Phantom Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (2) the Merger Consideration, less (B) any applicable withholding for Taxes, payable in accordance with, and subject to, the deferral elections applicable to such Company Phantom Stock Units as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary including the provisions of Sections 5.04(a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Agreement or otherwise, with respect to Permitted 2018 Awards (as defined and permitted by Section 4.01 of the Company Letter), only the 2018 Award Pro Rata Percentage shall become vested at the Effective Time and shall be entitled to the Option Merger Consideration, the Restricted Share Merger Consideration, the Performance Share Merger Consideration and the consideration set forth in Section 5.04(d).  The remainder of any Permitted 2018 Award shall be forfeited.  The 2018 Award Pro Rata Percentage means a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from the grant date of such award (or in the case of Company Performance Shares, from the beginning of the performance period) through and including the Closing Date and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number of days from the grant date of such award (or in the case of Company Performance Shares, from the beginning of the performance period) through the final regularly scheduled vesting date of such award.  For the avoidance of doubt, any

63

Permitted 2018 Awards that are Company Performance Shares shall be cashed out at deemed target level performance with pro-ration in accordance with the terms of the first sentence of Section 5.04(c)(ii).

(g)  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than 10 days after the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, and the Surviving Corporation shall, pay the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.04, net of any applicable withholding Taxes, through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll or a third party engaged to provide payroll services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Company Equity-Based Awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, including the Company Deferred Stock Units and the Company Phantom Stock Units, the payments required under this Section 5.04 shall be made in accordance with the deferral elections applicable to such Company Equity-Based Awards as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time and otherwise in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(h)  At or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Company (or if appropriate, any committee administering the applicable Company Stock Plans) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to (i) effectuate the treatment of the Company Equity-Based Awards pursuant to this Section 5.04 and (ii) cause the Company Stock Plans (other than the Company ESPP) to terminate at the Effective Time.

(i)  The Board of Directors of the Company (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as may be required to provide that with respect to the Company ESPP:  (i) participants in the Company ESPP (“ESPP Participants”) may not increase their payroll deductions under the Company ESPP from those in effect on the date of this Agreement; (ii) no new ESPP Participants may commence participation in the Company ESPP following the date of this Agreement; (iii) all participation in and purchases under the Company ESPP shall be suspended effective as of the last day of the offering period that includes the date of this Agreement (the “ESPP Suspension Date”), such that the offering period in effect as of the date of this Agreement will be the final offering period under the Company ESPP; and (iv) with respect to any offering period under the Company ESPP in effect as of the date of this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that such offering period ends at the ESPP Suspension Date and that each ESPP Participant’s accumulated contributions for such offering period are applied to the purchase of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP unless the ESPP Participant has previously withdrawn from such offering period in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP.  Any cash remaining in the Company ESPP after purchases

occurring on the ESPP Suspension Date shall be refunded to ESPP Participants promptly following the ESPP Suspension Date.

SECTION 5.05.  Employee Matters.  (a)  For the 12 month period following the Closing Date, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide to each employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries who is an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) with (i) at least the same base cash compensation or other base wages provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; (ii) target annual incentive opportunities that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the target annual cash incentive opportunity and target annual equity incentive opportunity provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time (which, in the case of incentive opportunities granted following the Closing, shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or its Subsidiaries); (iii) severance benefits that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the severance benefits provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time (for the avoidance of doubt, after taking into account the service crediting provisions of Section 5.05(b) and any additional service performed following the Closing Date); and (iv) other compensation and employee benefits (excluding, for this purpose, the compensation contemplated by clauses (i)-(iii) above and retention, change in control, or one-time or special benefits or arrangements) that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time.  Nothing in this Section 5.05(a) is intended to or shall create any right in any employee, consultant or contractor of the Company to continued employment by or service to Parent, the Company, the Sub, or, in each case, any affiliate or Subsidiary thereof, or limit the ability of Parent, the Company, the Sub, or, in each case, any affiliate or Subsidiary thereof, to terminate the employment or service of any employee, consultant or contractor of the Company for any reason.

(b)  To the extent that a Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate in an employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company or its Subsidiaries), Parent shall cause such employee benefit plan to (i) recognize the service of such Continuing Employee with the Company and its Subsidiaries (or their predecessor entities) for purposes of eligibility, participation, vesting and, except under defined benefit pension plans and plans providing for retiree medical or other welfare benefits, benefit accrual under such employee benefit plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, to the same extent such service was recognized under a comparable Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that such recognition of service (A) shall not operate to duplicate any benefits of a Continuing Employee with respect to the

65

same period of service, and (B) shall not apply for purposes of any plan, program or arrangement under which similarly-situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries do not receive credit for prior service; and (ii) with respect to any health, dental, vision plan or other welfare plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) (any such plan, a “Parent Welfare Plan”) in which any Continuing Employee is eligible to participate for the plan year in which such Continuing Employee is first eligible to participate, use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions or eligibility waiting periods under such Parent Welfare Plan to be waived with respect to such Continuing Employee to the extent such limitation, exclusion or period would have been waived or satisfied under the Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (y) recognize and credit any health, dental or vision expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee in the year that includes the Closing Date (or, if later, the year in which such Continuing Employee is first eligible to participate) for purposes of any applicable deductible and annual out-of-pocket expense requirements under any such health, dental or vision plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c)  Without limiting the generality of this Section 5.05, for the performance year that includes the Closing Date, Parent shall, or shall cause the applicable Subsidiary to, pay such annual cash incentive bonuses following the Closing Date under the terms of the applicable Benefit Plan in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

(d)  Without limiting the generality of this Section 5.05, from and after the Closing Date, Parent shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary to, honor in accordance with its terms any employment, change in control, or other agreement set forth on Section 5.05(d) of the Company Letter.

(e)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all terms and conditions of employment with respect to any Continuing Employee who is subject to a collective bargaining or similar labor agreement shall be made in accordance with the terms of such agreement.

(f)  This Section 5.05 shall be binding upon and shall inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 5.05, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person (including for the avoidance of doubt any current or former directors, officers, employees, contractors or consultants of any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries) any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 5.05 or is intended to be, shall constitute or be construed as an amendment to or modification of any employee benefit plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement of Parent, the

66

Company, the Surviving Corporation or any respective Subsidiary thereof.  In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate Parent, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries to (i) maintain any particular Benefit Plan or (ii) retain the employment or services of any Company Personnel.

SECTION 5.06.  Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.  (a)   Parent and Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of any person who is or prior to the Effective Time becomes or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as provided in the respective certificates of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any indemnification or other agreements of the Company or its applicable Subsidiary, in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time, and shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such indemnified party, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to comply with and honor the foregoing obligations.

(b)  In the event that the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and is not 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, or if Parent dissolves the Surviving Corporation, then, and in each such case, Parent shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.06.

(c)  Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase a six-year “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy effective for claims asserted for a six-year period after the Effective Time covering each person covered as of the Effective Time by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time on terms that are no less favorable than those of such policy of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement, which insurance shall, prior to the Closing, be in effect and prepaid for such entire six-year period; provided that the Company shall not pay annual premiums for such policy in excess of 300% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for its existing coverage (the “Maximum Premium”).  If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an aggregate premium in excess of the Maximum

67

Premium, the Company shall acquire the most advantageous policy obtainable for an aggregate premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(d)  The rights of each indemnified party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such indemnified party may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or any other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the DGCL or otherwise.  The provisions of this Section 5.06 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and are expressly intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the indemnified parties and shall be binding on Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 5.07.  Financing Cooperation.  (a)  Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter, including using its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter until the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, (ii) timely negotiate definitive agreements with respect to the facilities contemplated by the Commitment Letter on the terms and conditions set forth therein (or on terms that will not materially delay or prevent the Closing or make the funding with respect to the Financing less likely to occur), (iii) satisfy or cause to be waived on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent set forth in the Commitment Letter or such definitive agreements that are within its control and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder and (iv) upon the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions, consummate the Financing; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent Parent from replacing all or any portion of the Financing provided for in the Commitment Letter with one or more commitments from financial institutions to provide an equal or greater amount of debt financing to be made available on or prior to the Closing Date with conditionality no less favorable to Parent in any material respect than that provided for in the Commitment Letter, and upon any such replacement, the definition of “Commitment Letter” set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been modified as appropriate to reflect such replacement debt financing and any related commitment letter.

(b)  Parent shall not amend, modify or waive, or agree to amend, modify or waive (in any case, whether by action or inaction), any term of the Commitment Letter without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Financing available on the Closing Date to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration (unless, in the case of this clause (i), such amount is fully replaced with an amount of new financing with conditionality no less favorable to Parent in any material respect), or (ii) imposes new or additional conditions

68

or amends or modifies any of the conditions precedent to the receipt of the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially delay or prevent the Closing, (y) make the timely funding of the Financing or satisfaction of the conditions precedent to obtaining the Financing less likely to occur or (z) adversely impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against any other party to the Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto in any material respect (provided, however, that Parent may, without the consent of the Company, amend or modify the Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto (A) in accordance with the “market flex” provisions thereof and (B) to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or other titled roles with respect to financial institutions that have not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement). Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of the Financing and developments with respect thereto and shall, upon the request of the Company, provide to the Company copies of all material definitive documents related to the Financing (subject to customary redactions of fee letters).

(c)  If the Financing in an aggregate amount (together with cash and marketable securities on hand) at least equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration to be deposited with the Paying Agent and all other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article II, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Commitment Letter, and such unavailable amount is reasonably required to make the payment to the Paying Agent of the aggregate Merger Consideration, all other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article II, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such event, an “Original Financing Failure”), Parent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Original Financing Failure and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as reasonably practicable, alternative financing from alternative sources on terms and conditions not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to Parent than those contained in the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and in an amount, when added with cash and marketable securities of Parent and Sub, at least equal to the Financing or such unavailable portion thereof, as the case may be (the “Alternate Financing”), and to obtain a new financing commitment letter with respect to such Alternate Financing (the “New Commitment Letter”), which shall replace the existing Commitment Letter; provided that any such Alternate Financing shall not obligate the Company prior to the Closing as a surety, guarantor or indemnitor or to extend credit to any person.  Parent shall promptly provide a true and complete copy of such New Commitment Letter to the Company.  In the event a New Commitment Letter is obtained, (i) any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing” shall mean the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter as modified pursuant to clause (ii) below, (ii) any reference in this Agreement to the “Commitment Letter” shall be deemed to mean the New Commitment Letter and (iii) any reference in this Agreement to

69

the “Fee Letter” shall be deemed to include any fee or other letter relating to the New Commitment Letter to the extent then in effect.

(d)  From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (x) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (y) the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives to, provide to Parent all cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement and consummation of the Financing or any alternative financing arrangements entered into to provide funds for the aggregate Merger Consideration, and all other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article II, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided that such cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries), including using reasonable best efforts to (i) participate in a reasonable number of requested meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings with the parties acting as lead arrangers or agents for, and prospective lenders, underwriters and purchasers of, the Financing and the Company’s senior management and Representatives), presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Financing, (ii) assist with the preparation of (A) materials for rating agency presentations and investor presentations, (B) registration statements, prospectuses, offering memoranda and private placement memoranda (including use of reasonable best efforts to obtain any consents of accountants for use of their reports in any of the foregoing), (C) bank information memoranda (including a public-side version thereof) and (D) similar documents, in each case required or customary in connection with the Financing or otherwise reasonably requested by Parent, (iii) execute and deliver (or use reasonable best efforts to obtain) customary certificates, accountant’s comfort letters (which shall provide “negative assurance” comfort), consents, legal opinions, surveys and title insurance in each case as reasonably requested by the Financing Sources, (iv) provide customary authorization letters to the Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders and containing a customary representation that such information does not contain a material misstatement or omission and containing a representation to the Financing Sources that the public side versions of such documents, if any, do not include material non-public information about the Company or its Subsidiaries or their securities, (v) provide the lead arrangers or agents for, and prospective lenders, underwriters and purchasers of, the Financing with all documentation and other information required with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT ACT, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 , (vi) assist Parent and its Representatives with the preparation of the documents governing the Financing (including any schedules, annexes or exhibits thereto and any pro forma financial statements and financial projections required to be delivered thereunder and such other pertinent and customary

70

financial and other information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent shall reasonably request in order to market, syndicate and consummate the Financing), (vii) obtain customary payoff letters and any necessary lien terminations and other instruments of discharge in connection with the repayment of existing indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries reasonably requested by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and (viii) cooperate with Parent’s Financing Sources’ due diligence, to the extent customary or reasonable; provided, however, all non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Company obtained by Parent pursuant to this Section 5.07(d) shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, and the Company shall only be required to furnish such information to any prospective lenders or other proposed Financing Sources, underwriters, placement agents, initial purchasers or other third parties that have agreed to keep such information confidential; and provided further that nothing in this Agreement shall require any cooperation to the extent it would (1) require the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Board of Directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any commitment, financing or other fees or reimburse any expenses prior to the Closing Date; (2) require any officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries to execute or deliver any document or certificate in connection with the Financing that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Closing (other than customary documents or certificates solely relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, including the authorization letter and representation referred to in Section 5.07(d)(iv)); (3) unreasonably or materially interfere with the ongoing business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (4) require the Company or its Subsidiaries to take any action that would conflict with or violate any applicable Laws or any provision of the organizational documents of the Company, or that would result in a violation or breach of, or default under, any Specified Contract in effect as of the date of any such request; or (5) result in any officer or director of the Company or its Subsidiaries incurring any personal liability in connection with the Financing.  Subject to Parent’s indemnification obligations under this Section 5.07, the Company hereby consents to the customary use of its and its Subsidiaries’ trademarks, service marks and logos in connection with the Financing; provided that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries under any certificate, document or instrument shall be effective until the Closing and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to take any action under any certificate, document or instrument that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Closing (other than, in each case, customary documents or certificates solely relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries including the authorization letter and management representation referred to in Section 5.07(d)(iv)).  Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates, and

71

their respective pre-Closing Representatives, from and against any liability, obligation or loss suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Financing, any information provided in connection therewith (other than arising from information provided by the Company or its Subsidiaries but including any violation of the Confidentiality Agreement) and any misuse of the logos or marks of the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection therewith, except in the event such liabilities, obligations or losses arose out of or result from the willful misconduct of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives.  Parent shall promptly reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for all out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation. Parent acknowledges and agrees that obtaining the financing contemplated by this Section 5.07, or any other financing, is not a condition to the Closing, and affirms its obligations to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (subject to the conditions contained in Article VI) irrespective and independently of the availability of any such financing.

SECTION 5.08.  Fees and Expenses.  (a)  Except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.08 and in Section 5.07, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

(b)  In the event that (i) a Takeover Proposal has been publicly made (whether or not conditional and whether or not withdrawn) to the Company or its stockholders or any person has publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional and whether or not withdrawn) to make a Takeover Proposal or, in the case of a termination by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(d)(i), a Takeover Proposal (whether or not conditional and whether or not withdrawn) is otherwise made privately or publicly to the Company and thereafter (A) this Agreement is terminated by either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) or Section 7.01(b)(iii) or by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(d)(i) and (B) prior to the date that is 12 months after such termination, (1) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement with respect to any Takeover Proposal or (2) any Takeover Proposal is consummated (solely for purposes of this Section 5.08(b)(i)(B), the term “Takeover Proposal” shall have the meaning set forth in the definition of Takeover Proposal contained in Section 4.02(a) except that all references to 20% shall be deemed references to 50%), (ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) or 7.01(g) (provided that if the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) or 7.01(b)(iii), in each case, at any time at which Parent would have been permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(c) or 7.01(g), this Agreement shall be deemed terminated pursuant to Section 7.01(c) or 7.01(g), as applicable, for purposes of this Section 5.08(b)(ii)) or (iii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to

72

Section 7.01(f), then, in each such case, the Company shall pay Parent a fee equal to $275,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same-day funds (x) in the case of a termination by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) or 7.01(g), within two business days after such termination, (y) in the case of a termination by the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(f), no later than the time of such termination and (z) in the case of a payment as a result of any event referred to in Section 5.08(b)(i)(B), no later than the first to occur of the events referred to in clauses (B)(1) and (B)(2) above, in each case to an account designated by Parent.

(c)  The Company acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 5.08 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, Parent would not have entered into this Agreement.  Accordingly, if the Company fails promptly to pay the amounts due pursuant to this Section 5.08 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the amounts set forth in this Section 5.08, the Company shall pay to Parent its reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit and any appeal relating thereto, together with interest on the amounts set forth in this Section 5.08 at the prime lending rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

SECTION 5.09.  Stock Exchange Delisting and Deregistration.  Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Law and the rules and requirements of the New York Stock Exchange to cause the delisting of the Company Common Stock from the New York Stock Exchange as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event no more than two business days after the Closing Date, and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not cause the Company Common Stock to be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange prior to the Effective Time.

SECTION 5.10.  Public Announcements.  The parties agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be in the form heretofore agreed to by the parties.  Parent and Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall consult with each other before making, and give each other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the other party’s concurrence, except as may

73

be required by applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system and except as permitted by Section 4.02.

SECTION 5.11.  Resignation of Directors.  At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent of the resignation of all the directors of the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company other than those set forth on Section 5.11 of the Company Letter, effective as of the Effective Time.

SECTION 5.12.  Sub Compliance.  Parent shall cause Sub to comply with all of Sub’s obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 5.13.  Section 16 Compliance.  The Board of Directors of the Company shall, prior to the Effective Time, take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate pursuant to Rule 16b-3(d) and Rule 16b-3(e) under the Exchange Act to exempt from Section 16 of the Exchange Act the disposition of shares of Company Common Stock and “derivative securities” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(c) under the Exchange Act) with respect to shares of Company Common Stock by officers and directors of the Company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

SECTION 8.05.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

SECTION 8.06.  Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement (a) together with any Exhibit hereto and the Company Letter, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for the Confidentiality Agreement, and (b) except for (i) Sections 7.02, 7.03, and 8.09(b) and 8.10, of which the Financing Sources and the Financing Sources Related Parties are express third party beneficiaries, and (ii) Section 5.06, is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto (and their respective successors and assigns) any rights (legal, equitable or otherwise) or remedies, whether as third party beneficiaries or otherwise.

86

Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations under this Agreement if such assignee does not perform such obligations.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.09.  Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Venue.  (a)  Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (and if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be unavailable, any Delaware State court and the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware) for the purposes of any Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement (and agrees that no such Proceeding relating to this Agreement shall be brought by it or any of its Subsidiaries except in such courts).  Each of the parties further agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such person’s respective address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding in the State of Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence.  Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives (and agrees not to plead or claim), any objection to the laying of venue of any Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the Delaware Court of Chancery (and if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be unavailable, in any Delaware State court or the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware) or that any such Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the parties hereto agrees that it (i) will not bring or support any Proceeding, cross-claim or third party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or tort or otherwise against the Financing Sources or the Financing Sources Related Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Financing, in any forum other than a court of competent jurisdiction located within the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, New York, whether a state or federal court, (ii) all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Financing Sources or the Financing Sources Related Parties in any way relating to this Agreement, shall be exclusively governed by, and constructed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, and (iii) the provisions of Section 8.10 relating to the waiver of jury trial shall apply to any such Proceedings.

SECTION 8.10.  Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury

87

in respect of any Proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the Financing.  Each party hereto (a) certifies that no Representative of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such party would not, in the event of any Proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 8.10.

SECTION 8.11.  Enforcement.  The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Delaware Court of Chancery (and if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be unavailable, in any Delaware State court or the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

SECTION 8.12.  Consents and Approvals.  For any matter under this Agreement requiring the consent or approval of any party to be valid and binding on the parties hereto, such consent or approval must be in writing and executed and delivered to the other parties by a person duly authorized by such party to do so.

SECTION 8.13.  Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision hereof and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

88

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent, Sub and the Company have caused this Agreement to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, all as of the date first written above.
