AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 23, 2017, by and among: Mallinckrodt plc, an Irish public limited company (“Parent”); Sun Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”); and Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Parent has agreed to cause Purchaser to commence a cash tender offer (as it may be amended from time to time as permitted under this Agreement, the “Offer”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Company Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) for $18.00 per share, to be paid to the seller in cash, without interest (such amount, or any higher amount per Share paid pursuant to the Offer, being the “Offer Price”), and subject to any applicable withholding Taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.

B. Following the consummation of the Offer, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the merger and as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, whereby, except as expressly provided in Section 2.5, (i) each issued and outstanding Share (other than any Cancelled Shares, Converted Shares or Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, in cash, without interest, and subject to any applicable withholding Taxes and (ii) the Company shall become a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent as a result of the Merger.

C. The board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has unanimously (i) determined that this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, are advisable and fair to, and in the best interest of, the Company and its stockholders, (ii) agreed that the Merger shall be effected under Section 251(h) and other relevant provisions of the DGCL, (iii) approved the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger and (iv) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of the Company tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer (the “Company Board Recommendation”).

D. The board of directors of each of Parent and Purchaser have approved this Agreement and declared it advisable for Parent and Purchaser, respectively, to enter into this Agreement.

E. Parent, Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree that the Merger shall be effected under Section 251(h) of the DGCL and shall, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, be consummated following the Offer Acceptance Time as set forth herein.

F. As a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent and Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, certain of the Company’s stockholders are entering into a tender and support agreement with Parent and Purchaser (the “Support Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, each such stockholder has agreed to tender Shares (totaling, in the aggregate, approximately 32% of the outstanding Shares) to Purchaser in the Offer.

AGREEMENT

The Parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

SECTION 1. THE OFFER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Commencement of the Offer. Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 8, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement but in no event more than fifteen business days after the date of this Agreement (subject to the Company having timely provided any information required to be provided by it pursuant to Sections 1.1(e) and 1.2(b)), Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer.

(b) Terms and Conditions of the Offer. The obligations of Purchaser to, and of Parent to cause Purchaser to, accept for payment, and pay for, any Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the prior satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions set forth in Annex I (collectively, the “Offer Conditions”). The Offer shall be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that contains the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Minimum Condition and the other Offer Conditions. Purchaser and Parent expressly reserve the right to (i) increase the Offer Price, (ii) waive any Offer Condition and (iii) make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that unless otherwise provided by this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, Purchaser shall not (A) decrease the Offer Price, (B) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (C) decrease the maximum number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, (D) impose conditions to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions, (E) amend or modify any of the Offer Conditions in a manner that adversely affects, or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect, any holder of Shares in its capacity as such, (F) change or waive the Minimum Condition, (G) extend or otherwise change the Expiration Date in a manner other than as required or permitted by this Agreement or (H) provide any “subsequent offering period” within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The Offer may not be withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date (or any rescheduled Expiration Date) of the Offer, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.

(c) Expiration and Extension of the Offer. The Offer shall initially be scheduled to expire at 8:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the first business day immediately following the 20^th business day following the Offer Commencement Date, determined as set forth in Rule 14d-1(g)(3) and Rule 14e-1(a) under the Exchange Act (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Parent and the Company) (the “Initial Expiration Date,” and such date or such subsequent date to which the expiration of the Offer is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that the Initial Expiration Date shall be no earlier

than January 31, 2018. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to the Parties’ respective termination rights under Section 8: (i) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived, Purchaser may, in its discretion (and without the consent of the Company or any other Person), extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for an additional period of up to ten business days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; (ii) Purchaser shall extend the Offer from time to time for: (A) any period required by any Legal Requirement, any interpretation or position of the SEC, the staff thereof or NASDAQ applicable to the Offer; and (B) periods of up to ten business days per extension, until any waiting period (and any extension thereof) applicable to the consummation of the Offer under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated; (iii) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition (other than the Minimum Condition) is not satisfied and has not been waived, at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall extend the Offer on one or more occasions for an additional period of up to ten business days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; and (iv) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, the Minimum Condition is not satisfied but all other Offer Conditions (other than the Offer Condition set forth in clause (f) of Annex I) have been satisfied or waived, at the written request of the Company, Purchaser shall extend the Offer on up to two occasions for an additional period of up to ten business days per such extension, to permit the Minimum Condition to be satisfied; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser: (1) be required to extend the Offer beyond the earliest to occur of (the “Extension Deadline”) (x) the valid termination of this Agreement in compliance with Section 8 and (y) the End Date; or (2) be permitted to extend the Offer beyond the Extension Deadline without the prior written consent of the Company. Purchaser shall not terminate the Offer prior to any scheduled Expiration Date without the prior written consent of the Company except in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.

(d) Termination of Offer. In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours of such termination), irrevocably and unconditionally terminate the Offer and shall not acquire any Shares pursuant to the Offer. If the Offer is terminated or withdrawn by Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly return, and shall cause any depository acting on behalf of Purchaser to return, in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, all tendered Shares to the registered holders thereof.

(e) Offer Documents. As promptly as practicable on the date of commencement of the Offer (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act), Parent and Purchaser shall (i) file with the SEC a tender offer statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments and supplements thereto and including exhibits thereto, the “Offer Documents”) that will contain or incorporate by reference the Offer to Purchase and form of the related letter of transmittal and (ii) cause the Offer to Purchase and related documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares. Parent and Purchaser agree that they shall cause the Offer Documents filed by either Parent or Purchaser with the SEC to comply in all material respects with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and other applicable Legal Requirements. Each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company agrees to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and Parent further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Offer Documents as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent

required by applicable federal securities laws. The Company shall promptly furnish or otherwise make available to Parent and Purchaser or Parent’s legal counsel all information concerning the Company and the Company’s stockholders that may be required or reasonably requested in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 1.1(e). The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents prior to the filing thereof with the SEC. Parent and Purchaser agree to provide the Company and its counsel with any comments Parent, Purchaser or their counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents promptly after receipt of such comments. Each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company shall respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents or the Offer. Parent and Purchaser shall provide the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in the formulation of any response to any such comments of the SEC or its staff and a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions with the SEC or its staff concerning such comments.

(f) Payment; Funds. On the terms specified herein and subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent waivable by Parent or Purchaser, waiver of the Offer Conditions, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, irrevocably accept for payment at the Offer Acceptance Time and pay for, all Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer as promptly as practicable after the Offer Acceptance Time. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.10, Parent shall cause to be provided to Purchaser all of the funds necessary to purchase any Shares that Purchaser becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer, and shall cause Purchaser to perform, on a timely basis, all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement. Parent and Purchaser shall, and each of Parent and Purchaser shall ensure that all of their respective controlled Affiliates shall, tender any Shares held by them into the Offer.

(g) Adjustments. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Offer Acceptance Time, the outstanding Shares are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Offer Price shall be appropriately adjusted; it being understood that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 1.1(g) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

1.2 Company Actions.

(a) Schedule 14D-9. As promptly as practicable on the Offer Commencement Date, following the filing of the Schedule TO that forms a part of the Offer Documents, the Company shall (i) file with the SEC and disseminate to holders of Shares a Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) that (A) unless the Company Board has made a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation in accordance with Section 6.1(b), shall reflect the Company Board Recommendation and (B) includes the notice and other information required by Section 262(d)(2) of the DGCL and (ii) cause the Schedule 14D-9 and related documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares as and to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, including by setting the Stockholder List Date as the record date for purposes of receiving the notice required by Section 262(d)(2) of the DGCL. The

Company agrees that it shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 to comply in all material respects with the Exchange Act and other applicable Legal Requirements. Each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company agrees to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff and to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Schedule 14D-9 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. Parent and Purchaser shall promptly furnish or otherwise make available to the Company or its legal counsel all information concerning Parent and Purchaser that may be required or reasonably requested in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 1.2(a). Parent and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 and any amendment thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC. The Company agrees to provide Parent and its counsel with any comments the Company or its counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly after receipt of such comments. The Company shall provide Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in the formulation of any response to any such comments of the SEC or its staff and a reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions with the SEC or its staff concerning such comments. The Company shall respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9.

(b) Stockholder Lists. The Company shall promptly furnish Parent with, or shall cause to be promptly furnished to Parent, a list of its stockholders, mailing labels and any available listing or computer file containing the names and addresses of all record holders of Shares and lists of securities positions of Shares held in stock depositories, in each case accurate and complete as of the most recent practicable date, and shall provide to Parent such additional information (including updated lists of stockholders, mailing labels and lists of securities positions) and such other assistance as Parent may reasonably request in connection with the Offer and the Merger (the date of the list used to determine the Persons to whom the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9 are first disseminated, which date shall not be more than ten business days prior to the date the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9 are first disseminated, the “Stockholder List Date”). Subject to applicable Legal Requirements, and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other information necessary to consummate the Transactions, Parent and Purchaser and their agents shall hold in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement the information contained in any such labels, listings and files, shall use such information only in connection with the Offer and the Merger and, if this Agreement shall be terminated, shall, upon request, deliver, and shall use their reasonable efforts to cause their agents to deliver, to the Company (or, at Parent’s option, destroy) all copies and any extracts or summaries from such information then in their possession or control.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL, at the Effective Time, the Company and Parent shall consummate the Merger, whereby Purchaser shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate existence of Purchaser shall cease.

(ii) any Share held immediately prior to the Effective Time by Parent or Purchaser shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor (such Shares, if any, together with any Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(i), the “Cancelled Shares”);

(iii) any Share held immediately prior to the Effective Time by any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or of Parent (other than Purchaser), if any (the “Converted Shares”), shall be converted into such number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation such that each such Subsidiary shall own the same percentage of the outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time as such Subsidiary owned in the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time;

(iv) except as provided in Section 2.5(a)(i), 2.5(a)(ii) or 2.5(a)(iii) (and subject to Section 2.5(b)), each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting Shares, as defined below) shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), subject to any applicable withholding Taxes; and

(b) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding Shares are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted; it being understood that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.5(b) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

2.6 Surrender of Certificates; Stock Transfer Books.

(a) Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (the “Depository Agent”) for the holders of Shares to receive the aggregate Offer Price to which holders of such Shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 1.1(b) and to act as agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the holders of Shares to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration to which holders of such Shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.5. The Paying Agent Agreement pursuant to which Parent shall appoint the Paying Agent shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. Prior to or promptly following (but in no event later than one business day after) the Offer Acceptance Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Depository Agent cash sufficient to make payment of the cash consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.1(b) and with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to make payment of the cash

consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.5 (together, the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation; provided, that such investments shall be (i) in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, (ii) in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, (iii) in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion or (iv) in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of acquisition, or any combination of the foregoing, and in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three months.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five business days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each Person who was, at the Effective Time, a holder of record of the Shares entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.5 (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall be in reasonable and customary form and shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such Shares (the “Certificates”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.6(f), if applicable) to the Paying Agent), or a customary agent’s message in respect of Book-Entry Shares, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to such letter of transmittal. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.6(f), if applicable) or Book-Entry Shares, together with such letter of transmittal in the case of Certificates, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each Share formerly evidenced by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such Certificates and Book-Entry Shares shall then be canceled. No interest shall accrue or be paid on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the benefit of the holder thereof. If the payment of any Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificates formerly evidencing the Shares is registered on the stock transfer books of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be endorsed properly or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid all transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not applicable, and none of Parent, Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation shall have any liability for any such Taxes in the circumstances described in this Section 2.6(b). Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.6, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.5.

(c) At any time following six months after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds which had been made available to the Paying Agent and not disbursed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (including all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it), and, thereafter, such holders shall be entitled to look to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar Legal Requirements) only as general creditors thereof with respect to the Merger Consideration that may be payable upon due surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares held by them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration delivered in respect of such Share to any Governmental Body pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or other similar Legal Requirements. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such holders at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Body shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the property of the Surviving Corporation or its designee, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Except as may be required by the Exchange Act (including the filing with the SEC of the Offer Documents), state takeover laws, the DGCL or the HSR Act, neither Parent nor Purchaser, nor any of Parent’s other Affiliates, is required to make any filing with or give any notice to, or to obtain any Consent from, any Person at or prior to the Closing in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent or Purchaser or the consummation by Parent or Purchaser of the Offer, the Merger or the other Transactions, other than such filings, notifications, approvals, notices or Consents that, if not obtained, made or given, would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. No vote of Parent’s stockholders is necessary to approve this Agreement or any of the Transactions.

4.5 Disclosure. None of the Offer Documents will 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 were made, not misleading. None of the information with respect to Parent or Purchaser supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Parent or Purchaser or any of their Subsidiaries specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 14D-9 will, at the time such document is filed with the SEC, at any time such document is amended or supplemented or at the time such document is first published, sent or given to the Company’s stockholders, 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 were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties in this Section 4.5 will not apply to statements or omissions included or incorporated by reference in the Offer Documents or the Schedule 14D-9 based upon information supplied to Parent or Purchaser by the Company or any of its Representatives on behalf of the Company specifically for inclusion therein.

33.

4.6 Absence of Litigation. There is no Legal Proceeding pending and served or, to the knowledge of Parent, pending and not served or overtly threatened against Parent or Purchaser, except as would not and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of Parent or Purchaser, as of the date of this Agreement, neither Parent nor Purchaser is subject to any continuing order of, consent decree, settlement agreement or similar written agreement with, or continuing investigation by, any Governmental Body, or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Body, except as would not and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 Financing and Funds. Purchaser has delivered to the Company true, correct and complete copies, as of the date of this Agreement, of (a) the executed Debt Commitment Letter and (b) the executed Debt Fee Letter (redacted as to economic and “flex” terms only). As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the full amount of the Debt Financing available to Mallinckrodt International Finance S.A. (“MIFSA”), an Affiliate of Purchaser (and Subsidiary of Parent), on the terms in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Fee Letter, and neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries (including Purchaser) has entered into any side letters or other agreements or arrangements related to the Debt Financing which would (i) reduce the amount of the Debt Financing or (ii) impose new or additional conditions or other contingencies to funding of the full amount of the Debt Financing. As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter, in the form so delivered, is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of MIFSA, and, to the knowledge of Purchaser, the other parties thereto, in each case except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and (ii) rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies. The Debt Commitment Letter has not been amended, restated or modified (other than as permitted by Section 6.14(a)). The net proceeds of the Debt Financing, if funded in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter, together with cash and cash equivalents available to Purchaser, the Company and their respective Affiliates, including under committed credit facilities available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, shall, in the aggregate, be sufficient to fund the cash payments required to consummate the Transactions upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement. As of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser has no reason to believe that MIFSA will be unable to satisfy any term or condition to be satisfied by it as a condition to the availability of the Debt Financing contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, nor any reason to believe that any of the conditions precedent to borrowing under any committed credit facilities available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates will not be satisfied. As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or failure to satisfy a condition on the part of MIFSA (or to MIFSA’s knowledge, any other party thereto) under the Debt Commitment Letter. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to consummate the Offer or the Merger are not subject to a condition that any financing be received by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for the consummation of the Transactions. Assuming (i) the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7 and Annex I of this Agreement, (ii) the accuracy as of the Effective Time of all of the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement, (iii) the performance by the Company of all of its obligations under this Agreement and (iv) all estimates, projections or forecasts prepared by or on behalf of the Company that have been made available to Parent prior to the date hereof have been prepared in good faith based on assumptions that were reasonable when made and continue to be reasonable, after giving effect to the Transactions, including the payment of the aggregate Offer Price and Merger Consideration, the payment of all other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and the payment of all related fees and expenses, Parent will be Solvent at and immediately after the Effective Time.

34.

Neither Parent nor Purchaser has enacted or will enact a plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act covering the purchase of any of the shares of the Company’s capital stock. At the time the Company Board approved this Agreement, neither Parent nor Purchaser was an “interested stockholder” of the Company under Section 203(c) of the DGCL.

During the Pre-Closing Period, neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i)(A) withdraw or withhold (or modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent or Purchaser), or publicly propose to withdraw or withhold (or modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent or Purchaser), the Company Board Recommendation or (B) adopt, approve, recommend or declare advisable, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, recommend or declare advisable, any Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Company Adverse Change in Recommendation”) or (ii) adopt, approve, recommend or declare advisable, or propose to adopt, approve, recommend or declare advisable, or allow the Company to execute or enter into any Contract (A) with respect to, or that is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal or (B) requiring, or reasonably expected to cause, the Company to abandon, terminate, delay or fail to consummate, or that would otherwise materially impede, interfere with or be inconsistent with, the Transactions (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into in accordance with Section 5.3).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to accepting for payment for such number of Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as satisfies the Minimum Condition (the “Offer Acceptance Time”):

(i) if the Company has received a written bona fide Acquisition Proposal (which Acquisition Proposal did not arise out of a breach of Section 5.3) from any Person that has not been withdrawn and after consultation with outside legal counsel, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Offer, (x) the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation or (y) the Company may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) to enter into a Specified Agreement with respect to such Superior Offer, in each such case, if and only if: (A) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; (B) the Company shall have given Parent prior written notice of its intention to consider making a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) at least four business days prior to making any such Company Adverse Change in Recommendation or termination (a “Determination Notice”) (which notice shall not in and of itself constitute a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation or termination of this

43.

Agreement); and (C) (1) the Company shall have provided to Parent a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal and all other information contemplated to be provided in accordance with Section 5.3(d), (2) the Company shall have given Parent four business days after Parent’s receipt of the Determination Notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement or make another proposal, and shall have made the Company’s Representatives reasonably available to negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives (and shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent and its Representatives, to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal, if any, and (3) after considering any such proposals and the results of any such negotiations and giving effect to the proposals made by Parent, if any, (A) after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Offer and (B) after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to make the Company Adverse Change in Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements. Issuance of any “stop, look and listen” communication by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) shall not be considered a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation and shall not in and of itself require the giving of a Determination Notice or compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.1(b)(i). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 6.1(b)(i) shall also apply to any change to any of the financial terms (including the form, amount and timing of payment of consideration) or any other material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal, each of which will require a new Determination Notice, except that for purposes of such subsequent Determination Notice, the references to four business days shall be deemed to be three business days; and

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 6.1(b)(ii) shall also apply to any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to such Change in Circumstance, each of which will require a new Determination Notice, except that the references to four business days shall be deemed to be three business days.

46.

action would reasonably be expected to (i) impose any material delay in the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period or impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any authorization, consent, clearance, approval or order of a Governmental Body necessary to consummate the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any approvals and expiration of waiting periods pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Legal Requirements, (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Body entering, or materially increase the risk of not being able to remove or successfully challenge, any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction or other order, decree, decision, determination or judgment that would materially delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit consummation of the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) otherwise materially delay or impede the consummation of the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing:

(a) Each Continuing Employee shall be given service credit for all purposes, including for eligibility to participate, benefit levels (including, for the avoidance of doubt, levels of benefits under Parent’s and/or the Surviving Corporation’s vacation policy) and eligibility for vesting under Parent and/or the Surviving Corporation’s employee benefit plans and arrangements with respect to his or her length of service with the Company (and its Subsidiaries and predecessors) prior to the Closing Date, provided that the foregoing shall not result in the duplication of benefits or apply for purposes of benefit accrual under any pension plan or to any benefit plan that is a frozen plan or that provides benefits to a grandfathered employee population.

(b) To the extent that service is relevant for eligibility, vesting or allowances (including paid time off) under any health or welfare benefit plan of Parent and/or the Surviving Corporation, then Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Continuing Employees, to the extent that such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods would not apply under a similar employee benefit plan in which such employees participated prior to the Effective Time and (ii) ensure that such health or welfare benefit plan shall, for purposes of eligibility, vesting, deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums and allowances (including paid time off), credit Continuing Employees for service and amounts paid prior to the Effective Time with the Company to the same extent that such service and amounts paid was recognized prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding health or welfare benefit plan of the Company.

48.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.4 are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 6.4 is intended to, or shall, constitute the establishment or adoption of or an amendment to any employee benefit plan for purposes of ERISA or otherwise and no current or former employee or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of the Agreement or have the right to enforce the provisions hereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Continuing Employee any right to continue in the employ or service of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent, the Surviving Company or any Affiliate of Parent, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any Continuing Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

6.5 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) All rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company existing as of the date hereof in favor of those Persons who are directors and officers of any Acquired Company as of the date of this Agreement or have been directors and officers of any Acquired Company in the past (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) for their acts and omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time, as provided in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or applicable governing documents) of the applicable Acquired Company (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) and as provided in the indemnification agreements between the Acquired Company and said Indemnified Persons (as set forth on Part 6.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and in effect as of the date of this Agreement) in the forms made available by the Company to Parent or Parent’s Representatives prior to the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such Indemnified Persons, and shall be observed by the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to the fullest extent available under Delaware law for a period of six years from the Effective Time, and any claim made pursuant to such rights within such six-year period shall continue to be subject to this Section 6.5(a) and the rights provided under this Section 6.5(a) until disposition of such claim.

(b) From the Effective Time until the sixth anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, Parent and the Surviving Corporation (together with their successors and assigns, the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall, to the extent described in Section 6.5(a), indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person in his or her capacity as an officer or director of an Acquired Company against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments or fines incurred by such Indemnified Person as an officer or director of an Acquired Company in connection with any pending or threatened Legal Proceeding based on or arising out of, in whole or in part, the fact that such Indemnified Person is or was a director or officer of an Acquired Company at or prior to the Effective Time and pertaining to any and all matters pending, existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, including any such matter arising under any claim with respect to the transactions contemplated herein.

49.

eligible to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.5(b) within 20 days after receipt by Parent of a written request for such advance, subject to the execution by such Indemnified Persons of appropriate undertakings in favor of the Indemnifying Parties to repay such advanced costs and expenses if it is ultimately determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 6.5(b).

(c) From the Effective Time until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall maintain, and Parent shall cause Surviving Corporation to maintain, in effect, the existing policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company as of the date of this Agreement (an accurate and complete copy of which has been made available by the Company to Parent or Parent’s Representatives prior to the date of this Agreement) for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons who are currently covered by such existing policy with respect to their acts and omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time in their capacities as directors and officers of the Company (as applicable), on terms with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts no less favorable in the aggregate than the existing policy or (ii) in lieu of becoming subject to the obligations set forth in the foregoing clause (i), at or prior to the Effective Time, Parent may (and the Company, upon Parent’s written request, shall) purchase a six-year “tail” policy for the policy of the Company in effect as of the date hereof, with such “tail” policy to be effective as of the Effective Time, and if such “tail policy” has been obtained, it shall be deemed to satisfy all obligations to obtain and/or maintain insurance pursuant to this Section 6.5(c); provided, however, that in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required to expend in any one year an amount in excess of 300% of the annual premium currently payable by the Company with respect to such current policy, it being understood that if the annual premiums payable for such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, Parent shall be obligated to cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost equal to such amount.

(d) In the event Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or Entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent shall ensure that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, or at Parent’s option, Parent, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.5.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the acceptance of Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer and the consummation of the Merger and are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Persons and their successors, assigns and heirs and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise. Unless required by applicable Legal Requirement, this Section 6.5 may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Offer Acceptance Time in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Person or any of their successors, assigns or heirs without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnified Person.

6.14 Debt Financing.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent and Purchaser will (and Parent will cause MIFSA to) use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing on or prior to the Closing Date to the extent necessary to consummate the Transactions, and will not (and Parent will cause MIFSA not to), without the Company’s prior written consent, amend, modify, replace, terminate or agree to any waiver under the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification, replacement, termination or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing to an amount that, together with Purchaser’s, the Company’s and their respective Affiliates’ cash and cash equivalents on hand and available committed credit facilities, would be less than an amount that would be required to fund the cash payments required to consummate the Transactions or (ii) changes the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing or adds new or additional conditions precedent to obtaining the Debt Financing, if such change would reasonably be expected to (A) materially delay or prevent the Closing, (B) make the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing on the Closing Date) materially less likely to occur or (C) materially adversely impact the ability of MIFSA to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may cause MIFSA to (1) amend or replace the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Fee Letter to add lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents, managers or similar entities who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement and (2) implement or exercise any “flex” provisions provided in the Debt Fee Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement. In the event that new commitment letters are entered into in accordance with any amendment, modification or replacement of the Debt Commitment Letter permitted pursuant to this Section 6.14, such new commitment letters shall be deemed to be a “Debt Commitment Letter” for all purposes of this Agreement and references to “Debt Financing” herein shall include and mean the financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters as so amended, modified or replaced, as applicable.

(b) Parent will, and will cause MIFSA to, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) satisfy (or, if deemed advisable by MIFSA, obtain the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions to the Debt Financing that are within Parent’s control, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing, and (iv) in the event that the Offer Conditions, the conditions set forth in Section 7 and the conditions to the availability of the Debt Financing have been satisfied or, upon funding, would be satisfied or waived, draw an amount of the Debt Financing which, together with its and its Affiliates’ cash and cash equivalents on hand and available committed credit facilities, is sufficient to enable Purchaser to fund the cash payments required to consummate the Transactions to be consummated on such date.

53.

(c) Upon the request of the Company, Parent and Purchaser will keep the Company reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of Parent’s, Purchaser’s and MIFSA’s efforts to obtain the Debt Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and Purchaser shall give the Company prompt notice of the occurrence of (i) any material breach of or default under the Debt Commitment Letter by any party thereto of which Parent or Purchaser becomes aware or (ii) to the extent Parent or Purchaser becomes aware thereof, any other event or development that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the ability of MIFSA to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing to the extent necessary to consummate the Transactions.

(d) The Company shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries (and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives) to provide such assistance with the Debt Financing as is customary with financings of the type contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and reasonably requested by Purchaser, including: (i) participation upon reasonable advance notice in, and assistance with, the marketing efforts related to the Debt Financing, including assisting Purchaser and its Affiliates with their preparation of customary confidential information memoranda, private placement memoranda, prospectuses, offering memoranda and other customary marketing materials and information reasonably deemed necessary by Parent or the Financing Sources to complete a successful syndication or offering for delivery to potential syndicate members, purchasers and participants, including assisting Parent in preparing estimates, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking financial information regarding the future performance of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (ii) participation by senior management and other Representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries in, and assistance with, the preparation of rating agency presentations and meetings with rating agencies, roadshows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and meetings with prospective lenders and debt investors (including, for the avoidance of doubt, direct contact with such rating agencies and prospective lenders and debt investors), in each case, at such times as may be coordinated reasonably in advance thereof; (iii) delivery to Purchaser and its Affiliates and their Financing Sources as promptly as reasonably practicable of (A) the documentation and other information requested by the Financing Sources with respect to (1) applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act and (2) the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA”) (in any event, at least four business days prior to the Closing Date, to the extent requested at least nine days prior to the Closing Date), (B) the Financing Information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and (C) such other information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries customary or reasonably necessary for the completion of the Debt Financing to the extent reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with the preparation of customary offering or information documents to be used for the Debt Financing (which information, for the avoidance of doubt, may be included in any such offering or information documents used for or distributed in connection with the Debt Financing); (iv) direct its independent auditors to cooperate with the Debt Financing consistent with their customary practice, including by providing customary “comfort letters” (including customary “negative assurances”) and customary assistance with the due diligence activities of Purchaser and its Affiliates and their Financing Sources, and customary consents to the inclusion of audit reports in any relevant marketing materials, registration statements and related government filings; (v) assisting Purchaser and its Affiliates with their preparation of pro forma financial information and pro forma financial statements for Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and

54.

other materials for inclusion in rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda (confidential and public), offering or private placement memoranda, lender and investor presentations, prospectuses and financial projections for the Company and its Subsidiaries as part of the consolidated business of Parent and its Subsidiaries, and not on a standalone basis, to the extent reasonably requested by Parent or the Financing Sources (provided, that none of the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives shall be required to provide information concerning the terms of the Debt Financing for inclusion in such pro forma financial information); (vi) providing customary management representation letters to its accountants in relation to its accountants’ providing “comfort letters” in connection with any securities offering made as part of the Debt Financing (“Representation Letters”) and providing customary authorization letters relating to the Financing Information; (vi) delivering (and otherwise reasonably facilitating the pledging of) possessory collateral required to be delivered as a condition precedent to the Debt Financing; and (vii) assisting Purchaser and its Affiliates in causing the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter to be satisfied, solely to the extent satisfaction of such conditions is reasonably within the control of the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives.

(e) The Company hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt 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 its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or its Subsidiaries; provided, further, that Purchaser, the Financing Sources and their respective Affiliates and Representatives shall obtain no rights in such logos prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between the Company and Purchaser (or its Affiliates), the Company agrees that Purchaser and its Affiliates may share customary projections with respect to the Company and its business with the Financing Sources, and that Purchaser, its Affiliates and such Financing Sources may share such information with potential Financing Sources in connection with any marketing efforts in connection with the Debt Financing, provided that the recipients of such information agree to customary confidentiality arrangements. Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 6.14(d), (i) neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or their respective Representatives shall be required to enter into or approve any letter, certificate, document, agreement or instrument, in each case, that will be effective prior to the Closing (other than Representation Letters and customary authorization letters) or approve or consent to resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the Debt Financing and (ii) nothing herein shall require cooperation contemplated thereby to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or would cause a material breach or violation of any Legal Requirement.

(f) Whether or not the Closing occurs, Purchaser will promptly, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than with respect to any costs associated with preparing quarterly and annual financial statements) in connection with the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries contemplated by Section 6.14(d). Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by any of them in connection

55.

with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (including any action taken in accordance with Section 6.14(d)) and any assistance or activities in connection therewith, in each case other than to the extent any of the foregoing are finally determined in a judicial proceeding (and not subject to further appeal) to have arisen from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or breach of this Agreement by, any such Person.

6.15 Payoff Letters. The Company shall (a) use reasonable best efforts to deliver to Purchaser at least two business days prior to the Closing Date (and seven business days prior to the Closing Date, drafts of) customary payoff letters from the holders of Indebtedness set forth in Part 6.15 of the Company Disclosure Schedule and to make arrangements for such holders of Indebtedness to deliver, subject to the receipt of the applicable payoff amounts, releases of all related Encumbrances to Purchaser and termination of all related guarantees at, and subject to the occurrence of, the Closing and (b) if requested by Parent, facilitate Parent’s or Purchaser’s repayment of such Indebtedness substantially concurrently with the Closing (including by executing any such payoff letters or related documents regarding the release of Encumbrances or termination of guarantees).

The Company shall provide Parent, Purchaser and their counsel reasonable opportunity (which shall not be less than three business days) to review and comment on any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments deliverable pursuant to or in connection with the Company Indenture prior to the dispatch or making thereof, and the Company shall promptly respond to any reasonable questions from, and reflect any reasonable comments made by, Parent or its counsel with respect thereto prior to the dispatch or making thereof.

(b) by either Parent or the Company if the Offer (as may be extended in accordance with this Agreement) shall have expired without the acceptance for payment of Shares pursuant to the Offer promptly thereafter; provided, however, that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if the failure of the acceptance for payment of Shares pursuant to the Offer is primarily caused by a failure on the part of such Party to perform in any material respect any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such Party at or prior to the acceptance for payment of Shares pursuant to the Offer;

(c) by either Parent or the Company if a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Body shall have issued a decree or ruling, or shall have taken any other action, having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the acceptance for payment of Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger or making consummation of the Offer or the Merger illegal, which order, decree, ruling or other action shall be final and nonappealable; provided, however, that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if the issuance of such final and nonappealable order, decree, ruling or other action was primarily caused by a failure on the part of such Party to perform in any material respect any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such Party at or prior to the Effective Time;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 9.1, Section 9.5(c), clause (iv) of Section 9.7, Section 9.12 and any defined terms used therein may not be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, nor may this Agreement be otherwise modified in a manner that in substance constitutes such a modification, in each case in a manner adverse to the Financing Sources, without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

9.2 Waiver. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No Party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

9.3 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule or in any certificate or schedule or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Merger.

61.

9.5 Applicable Legal Requirements; Jurisdiction; Specific Performance; Remedies.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. Subject to Section 9.5(c), in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement: (i) each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court sitting in New Castle County in the State of Delaware (it being agreed that the consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 9.5(a) shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the Parties hereto); and (ii) each of the Parties irrevocably consents to service of process by first class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the address at which such Party is to receive notice in accordance with Section 9.8. The Parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by Legal Proceeding on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Legal Requirements; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any Party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties hereto do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Subject to the following sentence, the Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 9.5(a) without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, (ii) the provisions set forth in Section 8.3: (x) are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement; and (y) shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Party’s right to specific enforcement and (iii) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties hereto have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.5(b) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

62.

The Corporation shall provide indemnification and advancement of expenses as follows:

Section 1. Actions, Suits and Proceedings Other than by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) (each such person being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

Section 2. Actions or Suits by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a

B-2

director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, to the extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 2 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware, or the court in which such action or suit was brought, shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware, or the court in which such action or suit was brought, shall deem proper.

Section 3. Indemnification for Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article IX, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise (including a disposition without prejudice), without (i) the disposition being adverse to Indemnitee, (ii) an adjudication that Indemnitee was liable to the Corporation, (iii) a plea of guilty or nolo contendere by Indemnitee, (iv) an adjudication that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and (v) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, Indemnitee shall be considered for the purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto.

Section 4. Notification and Defense of Claim. As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified pursuant to Sections 1, 2 or 3 of this Article IX, or to receive advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 5 of this Article IX, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity or advancement of expenses will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 4. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her own counsel in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the

B-3

employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article IX. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article IX for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

Section 5. Advance of Expenses. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4 and 6 of this Article IX, any expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in defending an action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such matter; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IX; and further provided that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article IX if it is determined (in the manner described in Section 6 of this Article IX) that (i) Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of Indemnitee to make such repayment.

Section 6. Procedure for Indemnification and Advance of Expenses. In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Sections 1, 2, 3 or 5 of this Article IX, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 30 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (i) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 4 of this Article IX (and none of the circumstances described in Section 4 of this Article IX that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification or an advancement for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred), or (ii) the Corporation determines within such 30 day period that Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1, 2 or 5 of this Article IX, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 1 or 2 of this Article IX only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or 2 of this Article IX, as the case may be.

B-4

Such determination shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

Section 7. Remedies. The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article IX shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 6 of this Article IX that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. Indemnitee’s expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to advancement of expenses or indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation.

Section 8. Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, except as set forth in Section 7 of this Article IX, the Corporation shall not indemnify or advance expenses to an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article IX in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, the Corporation shall not indemnify or advance expenses to an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed or paid expenses from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments or advancement of expenses to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund indemnification payments or advancement of expenses to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

Section 9. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article IX or of the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any other applicable laws shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

Section 10. Other Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of

B-5

Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification and advancement rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article IX. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board, grant indemnification and advancement rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article IX.

Section 11. Partial Indemnification and Advance of Expenses. If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article IX to indemnification or advancement of expenses by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.

Section 12. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability or loss incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Section 13. Savings Clause. If this Article IX or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article IX that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 14. Definitions. Terms used herein and defined in Section 145(h) and Section 145(i) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in such Section 145(h) and Section 145(i).
