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 seven (7) business days after the date of this Agreement, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer to purchase all of the outstanding Shares at a price per Share equal to the Offer Price, net to the seller in cash, without interest.

(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 tendered pursuant to the Offer are subject only to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the prior satisfaction of the Minimum Condition, the Termination Condition, and 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, the Termination Condition and the other Offer Conditions. Purchaser expressly reserves 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 notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, Parent and 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 or requirements to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions, (E) amend, change or waive the Minimum Condition, Termination Condition or conditions “(d)” and “(f)” set forth in Annex I, (F) except as provided in Sections 1.1(c) or 1.1(d), terminate the Offer or accelerate, extend or otherwise change the Expiration Date, (G) provide any “subsequent offering period” (or any extension thereof) within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (H) otherwise modify or amend any of the other terms of the Offer in a manner that adversely affects, or reasonably could be expected to adversely affect, any holder of Shares.

(c) Expiration and Extension of the Offer. The Offer shall initially be scheduled to expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the date that is twenty (20) business days (calculated as set forth in Rule 14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) following the Offer Commencement Date (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 Initial Expiration Date of the Offer is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to the Parties’ respective termination rights under Section 8: (i) Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer from time to time for any period required by any Legal Requirement, any interpretation or position of the SEC, the


staff thereof or NASDAQ applicable to the Offer; and (ii) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived by Purchaser or Parent, to the extent waivable by Purchaser or Parent, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to extend the Offer on one or more occasions for an additional period of up to ten (10) business days per extension to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser: (1) be required to extend the Offer beyond the earlier to occur of (the “Extension Deadline”) (x) the valid termination of this Agreement in compliance with Section 8 and (y) the first business day immediately following 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, or permit the Offer to expire, prior to the Extension Deadline without the prior written consent of the Company.

(d) Termination of Offer. In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 8, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) immediately, 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 in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser shall immediately 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 “Schedule TO”) 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 Schedule TO and all exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto (which together constitute the “Offer Documents”) filed by either Parent or Purchaser with the SEC (x) to comply in all material respects with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and other applicable Legal Requirements and (y) to 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 were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no covenant is made by Parent or Purchaser with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of the Company for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Offer Documents. 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 in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 1.1(e). The Company and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents (including any response to any comments (including oral comments) of the SEC or its staff with respect thereto) prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and Parent and Purchaser shall give reasonable


and good faith consideration to any such comments made by the Company or its counsel. 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 those comments (including oral comments). Each of Parent and Purchaser shall respond promptly to any comments (including oral comments) of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents or the Offer.

(f) Funds. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.11, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent, concurrently with or promptly following the Offer Acceptance Time, all of the funds necessary to purchase all 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 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.

(h) Acceptance. Subject only to the satisfaction or, to the extent waivable by Purchaser or Parent, waiver by Purchaser or Parent of each of the Offer Conditions, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) (i) promptly after (and in any event no later than the first business day after) the Expiration Date accept for payment all Shares tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer (the time of such acceptance, the “Offer Acceptance Time”) and (ii) promptly after (and in any event no later than the third business day after) the Expiration Date pay for such Shares.

1.2 Company Actions.

(a) Schedule 14D-9. As promptly as practicable on the day that the Offer is commenced, following the filing of the Schedule TO, the Company shall file with the SEC and disseminate to holders of Shares, in each case, as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws, a Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) that, subject to Section 6.1(b), shall reflect the Company Board Recommendation. The Company agrees that it shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 (i) to comply in all material respects with the Exchange Act and other applicable Legal Requirements and (ii) to 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 were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no covenant is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of Parent or Purchaser for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 14D-9. 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, including by setting the Stockholder List Date as the record date for the purpose of receiving the notice required by Section 262(d) of the DGCL. Parent and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 and any amendment thereto (including any response to any comments (including oral comments) of the SEC or its staff with respect thereto) prior to the filing thereof with the SEC and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any such comments made by Parent or its counsel. The Company agrees to provide Parent and its counsel with any comments (including oral 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 those comments (including oral 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. From time to time as requested by Purchaser or its agents, the Company shall promptly furnish Purchaser with 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 Purchaser additional information (including updated lists of stockholders, mailing labels and lists of securities positions) and other assistance as Purchaser may reasonably request in connection with the Offer (the date of the list used to determine the Persons to whom the Offer Documents and Schedule 14D-9 are first disseminated, the “Stockholder List Date”). Parent and Purchaser and their agents shall hold in confidence 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 by the Company, deliver, and shall use their reasonable efforts to cause their agents to deliver, to the Company (or destroy) all copies and any extracts or summaries from such information then in their possession or control, and, if requested by the Company, promptly certify to the Company in writing that all such material has been returned or destroyed.

2.5 Conversion of Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(i) any Shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(ii) any Shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by Parent, Purchaser or any other direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(iii) except as provided in clauses “(i)” and “(ii)” above and subject to Section 2.5(b), each Share then outstanding (other than any Dissenting Shares), together with the associated Stock Purchase Rights, if any, issued pursuant to the Company Rights Plan, shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), subject to any withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 2.6(e); and

(iv) each share of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Purchaser then outstanding shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(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.

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 funds 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 funds to which holders of such shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.5. Concurrently with or promptly following 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 the Surviving Corporation; provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America in


commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, or 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 a combination of the foregoing and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five (5) 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 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) to the Paying Agent) and 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) or Book-Entry Shares, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be 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 cancelled. 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. 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.

(c) At any time following twelve (12) 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 a public official 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.

(f) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder of the Shares formerly represented by that Certificate, or by a representative of that holder, claiming that Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by that holder of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate (which shall not exceed the Merger Consideration payable with respect to such Certificate), the Paying Agent will pay (less any amounts entitled to be deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.6(e)), in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Section 2.

2.7 Dissenters Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, and held by holders who are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL and have properly exercised and perfected their respective demands for appraisal of such Shares in the time and manner provided in Section 262 of the DGCL and, as of the Effective Time, have neither effectively withdrawn nor lost their rights to such appraisal and payment under the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration, but shall, by virtue of the Merger, be entitled to only such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL; provided that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL, such holder’s Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (less any amounts entitled to be deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.6(e)), and such shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent


prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. The Company shall provide each of the holders of Shares with the notice required by Section 262 of the DGCL with the notice contemplated thereby as part of the Schedule 14D-9.

2.8 Treatment of Company Options, Company SARs, Company RSUs, Company PSUs, and Company Restricted Shares.

the Company, each Company PSU that is outstanding shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares issuable in settlement of such fully vested Company PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, which amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.8(f).

(g) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions (including obtaining any necessary determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof) that may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.8 and terminate all rights under any Company Equity Plan effective as of, and contingent upon, the Effective Time.

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) in compliance with Section 5.3(e) shall not be considered a Company Adverse Change Recommendation and shall not require the giving of a Determination Notice or compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.1.

(e) Without the prior written approval of the Company, Parent and Purchaser shall not effect or agree to any business combination (whether structured as a merger, business combination, tender offer, exchange offer or similar transaction) or the acquisition of any assets, licenses, rights, product lines, operations or businesses of any person that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay consummation of the Transactions.

6.3 ESPP. Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary or required under the ESPP and Legal Requirements to, contingent on the Effective Time, (i) ensure that, except for the six (6)-month offering period under the ESPP that commenced on April 1, 2016, no offering period or purchase period shall be authorized or commenced on or after the date of this Agreement, (ii) ensure that participants in the ESPP may not increase their rate of payroll deductions and (iii) if the Closing shall occur prior to the end of the offering period in existence under the ESPP on the date of this Agreement, cause the rights of participants in the ESPP with respect to any such offering period (and purchase period thereunder) then underway under the ESPP to be determined by treating the last business day prior to the Offer Acceptance Time as the last day of such offering period and purchase period and by making such other pro-rata adjustments as may be necessary to reflect the shortened


offering period and purchase period but otherwise treating such shortened offering period and purchase period as a fully effective and completed offering period and purchase period for all purposes under the ESPP, with any Shares purchased under the ESPP cancelled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(iii) and, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the purchase of Shares in accordance with this Section 6.3, cause the funds, if any, that remain in a participant’s account after such purchase to be returned to the participant. The Company shall terminate the ESPP and all rights thereunder in their entirety effective as of the Offer Acceptance Time, contingent upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all actions (including, if appropriate, amending the terms of the ESPP) that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.3.

6.4 Employee Benefits. From and after the Effective Time, the Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Company to, honor all Employee Plans in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time or as subsequently amended as permitted pursuant to the terms of such Employee Plans and shall assume any Company Employee Agreements that require or contemplate assumption by their terms by an acquirer or successor. For a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time, Parent shall provide, or cause to be provided, to those employees of the Acquired Corporations who are employed by any Acquired Corporation as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and who continue to be actively employed by the Surviving Corporation (or any Affiliate thereof) during such one (1)-year period (the “Continuing Employees”) base salary and base wages, short-term cash incentive compensation opportunities (without duplication of the bonus amounts paid as contemplated by Section 6.4(e)), commission opportunities, severance payments and severance benefits, each in an amount no less favorable than that in effect immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement, other benefits (other than equity compensation) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits provided to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that during the period set forth in this Section 6.4 Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in Parent’s equity plan on a basis consistent with similarly situated employees of the Parent and its Subsidiaries. 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 vacation policy) and eligibility for vesting under Parent 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the service of each Continuing Employee shall not be recognized for (i) any entitlement to benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan or post-retirement benefit plan; (ii) the level of non-elective employer contributions under any 401(k) plan of Parent or (iii) eligibility to participate in, or the level of benefits under any, Parent retiree medical program in which any Continuing Employee participates after the Effective Time.

(b) With respect to any accrued but unused personal, sick or vacation time to which any Continuing Employee is entitled pursuant to the personal, sick or vacation policies applicable to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall,


or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to and instruct its Affiliates to, as applicable (and without duplication of benefits), assume the liability for such accrued personal, sick or vacation time and allow such Continuing Employee to use such accrued personal, sick or vacation time in accordance with the practice and policies of the Company, as they may be amended from time to time.

(c) Parent agrees that each Continuing Employee shall be eligible to continue to participate in the Surviving Corporation’s health and welfare benefit plans (to the same extent that such Continuing Employee was eligible to participate under the applicable Acquired Corporation’s health and welfare benefit plans immediately prior to the Effective Time); provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 6.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the right of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to amend or terminate any Surviving Corporation health or welfare benefit plan at any time and (ii) if Parent or the Surviving Corporation terminates a Surviving Corporation health or welfare benefit plan, then each Continuing Employee shall be eligible to participate in Parent’s health and welfare benefit plans to the extent that coverage under such plans is replacing comparable coverage under an Employee Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, such plans. 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 its 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 were recognized prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding health or welfare benefit plan of the Company, except, in each case, as would result in a duplication of benefits. Nothing in this Section 6.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any employee to employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Affiliate of the Surviving Corporation and the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment.

(d) Parent hereby acknowledges that a “change of control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of the Employee Plans will occur at or prior to the Effective Time, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the respective plan.

(e) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company may pay to each employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries actively employed as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and then participating in any Employee Plan that is an annual bonus plan (an “Annual Bonus Plan”), a bonus equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Company employee’s full-year bonus entitlement under all such Annual Bonus Plans for the Company’s calendar year in which the Effective Time will occur, based on the greater of (A) deemed performance at “target” levels and (B) actual performance through the latest practicable date prior to the Effective Time, extrapolated through the end of such fiscal year, and (ii) a


fraction the numerator of which equals the number of days that have elapsed during such fiscal year through the Effective Time and the denominator of which equals 365; provided that any employee who is paid a bonus in accordance with this Section 6.4(e) shall not thereafter be entitled to any amount for such fiscal year under any annual bonus plan of the Surviving Corporation or Parent to the extent it relates to service or performance occurring prior to the Effective Time. If the Effective Time occurs during 2017, then, in addition to making the payments pursuant to the preceding sentence in respect of the 2017 calendar year, the Company may pay to each employee of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries actively employed on December 31, 2016, a full bonus under the applicable Annual Bonus Plan in respect of the Company’s 2016 calendar year based on actual performance during such year, such payment to be made at the earlier of (x) immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

(f) 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.

6.5 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) All rights to indemnification by the Company or any other Acquired Corporation now existing in favor of those Persons who are directors and officers of the Company or any other Acquired Corporation as of the date of this Agreement (the “Indemnified Persons”) for their acts and omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time, as provided in the certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other charter and organizational documents of the applicable Acquired Corporation (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) and as provided in any indemnification agreements between the Acquired Corporation and said Indemnified Persons 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 be observed by the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to the fullest extent available under Delaware law for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, and any claim made requesting indemnification pursuant to such indemnification rights within such six (6) year period shall continue to be subject to this Section 6.5(a) and the indemnification rights provided under this Section 6.5(a) until disposition of such claim.

(b) From the Effective Time until the sixth (6th) 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 clause (a) above: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person in his or her capacity as an officer or director of an Acquired Corporation against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments or fines incurred by such Indemnified Person as an officer or director of an Acquired Corporation 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 Corporation 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 and (ii) advance reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Indemnified Persons in connection with matters for which such Indemnified Persons are eligible to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.5(b) 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 (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall maintain, and shall cause the other Acquired Corporations to maintain, in effect, the existing policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Acquired Corporations 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 Acquired Corporations (as applicable), on terms with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts no less favorable than the existing policy, or at or prior to the Effective Time Parent or the Company may (through a nationally recognized insurance broker approved by Parent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)) purchase a six (6)-year “tail” policy for the existing policy 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 an amount in excess of 300% of the annual premium currently payable by the Acquired Corporations 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.


6.6 Securityholder Litigation. Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall control the defense of any litigation brought by stockholders of the Company against the Company and/or its directors relating to the Transactions or a breach of this Agreement or any other agreements contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall give Parent the right to review and comment on all material filings or responses to be made by the Company in connection with any such litigation, and the right to consult on the settlement, release, waiver or compromise of any such litigation, and the Company shall in good faith take such comments into account, and no such settlement, release, waiver or compromise relating to the Transactions shall be agreed to without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Company shall promptly notify Parent of any such litigation and shall keep Parent informed on a current basis with respect to the status thereof.

6.7 Additional Agreements. Without limitation or contravention of the provisions of Sections 5.3, 6.1 and 6.2, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent, Purchaser and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to consummate the Offer and the Merger and make effective the other Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party to this Agreement shall (i) make all filings (if any) and give all notices (if any) required to be made and given by such Party in connection with the Offer and the Merger and the other Transactions; (ii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain each Consent (if any) required to be obtained pursuant to any applicable Legal Requirement or Material Contract by such Party in connection with the Transactions; and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to lift any restraint, injunction or other legal bar to the Offer or the Merger brought by any third Person against such Party. The Company shall promptly deliver to Parent a copy of each such filing made, each such notice given and each such Consent obtained by the Company during the Pre-Closing Period.

6.8 Disclosure. The initial press release relating to this Agreement shall be a joint press release issued by the Company and Parent and thereafter Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any further press release(s) or otherwise making any public statement or making any announcement to Company Associates (to the extent not previously issued or made in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to the Offer, the Merger, this Agreement or any of the other Transactions and shall not issue any such press release, public statement or announcement to Company Associates without the other Party’s written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) each Party may, without such consultation or consent, make any public statement in response to questions from the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences, make internal announcements to employees and make disclosures in publicly available conference calls and in the Company SEC Documents, so long as such statements are consistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the parties (or individually, if approved by the other Party), (b) a Party may, without the prior consent of the other Party hereto but subject to giving advance notice to the other Party, issue any such press release or make any such public announcement or statement as may be required


by Legal Requirement; and (c) the Parties need not consult each other in connection with such portion of any press release, public statement or filing to be issued or made pursuant to Section 5.3(e) or with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, Company Adverse Change Recommendation or Change in Circumstance.

6.9 Takeover Laws. If any Takeover Law may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the Transactions, each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company and the members of their respective boards of directors shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms and conditions contemplated hereby and otherwise act to lawfully eliminate the effect of any Takeover Law on any of the Transactions.

6.10 Section 16 Matters. The Company, and the Company Board, shall, to the extent necessary, take appropriate action, prior to or as of the Offer Acceptance Time, to approve, for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the disposition and cancellation or deemed disposition and cancellation of Shares, and Company Stock Awards in the Transactions by applicable individuals and to cause such dispositions and/or cancellations to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.11 Rule 14d-10 Matters. Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Compensation Committee of the Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held, shall approve, as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act, each agreement, arrangement or understanding between an Acquired Corporation or any of its Affiliates and any of the officers, directors or employees of the Acquired Corporation that are effective as of the date of this Agreement, are contemplated by this Agreement, or are entered into after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time pursuant to which compensation is paid to such officer, director or employee and shall take all other action reasonably necessary to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor set forth in Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act.

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d); or

(iii) (x) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b) (but in the case of a termination by the Company, only if at such time Parent would not be prohibited from terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b)), (y) any Person shall have publicly disclosed a bona fide Acquisition Proposal after the date hereof and prior to such termination (unless publicly withdrawn prior to such termination) and (z) within nine (9) months of such termination the Company shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or consummated an Acquisition Proposal (provided that for purposes of this clause (z) the references to “20%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”);

then, in any such event under clause “(i)”, “(ii)” or “(iii)” of this Section 8.3(b), the Company shall pay to Parent or its designee the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same day funds (x) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(i), on that date that the Specified Agreement is executed (or if the Specified Agreement is executed on a day that is not a business day, the next business day), (y) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(ii), within three (3) business days after such termination or (z) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(iii), prior to the entry into a definitive material agreement in respect of or consummation of the Acquisition Proposal, as applicable, referred to in subclause (iii)(z) above; it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. As used herein, “Termination Fee” shall mean a cash amount equal to $510,000,000. Payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.3(b) shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the Transactions (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates (collectively, “Parent Related Parties”) or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the Transactions or any matters forming the basis for such termination; provided, that payment of the Termination Fee will not be liquidated damages in the case of fraud or a willful and intentional breach of this Agreement.

(d) The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3, and, in order to obtain the payment, Parent commences a Legal Proceeding which results in a judgment against the Company, the Company shall pay Parent its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received.

(b) The Parties agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit 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.

(c) 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 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 (on behalf of themselves or any third party beneficiary to this Agreement) 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 or at law or in equity and (ii) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement.

9.6 Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights hereunder may be assigned by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempted assignment of this Agreement or any of such rights without such consent shall be void and of no effect; provided, further, however, that Parent or Purchaser may assign this Agreement to any of their Affiliates (provided that such assignment shall not impede or delay the consummation of the Transactions or otherwise impede the rights of the stockholders of the Company under this Agreement); provided that no such assignment or pledge permitted pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall relieve Parent of its obligations hereunder.
