Merger Agreement

On March 25, 2021, MSG Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MSG Networks”), Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp., a Delaware corporation (“MSG Entertainment”), and Broadway Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of MSG Entertainment (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The board of directors of MSG Networks (“MSGN Board”) approved, adopted and declared advisable the Merger Agreement upon the recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of the MSGN Board (“MSGN Special Committee”).

The Merger

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into MSG Networks (the “Merger”), with MSG Networks surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of MSG Entertainment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the time at which the Merger becomes effective (the “Effective Time”), each holder of record of a share of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MSG Networks (“MSGN Class A Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MSG Entertainment (“MSGE Class A Common Stock”) equal to such number of shares of MSGN Class A Common Stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by 0.172, with such number rounded up to the next whole share (such number of shares of MSGE Class A Common Stock, the “Class A Merger Consideration”), and each holder of record of a share of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MSG Networks (“MSGN Class B Common Stock” and, together with MSGN Class A Common Stock, the “MSGN Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MSG Entertainment (“MSGE Class B Common Stock” and, together with the MSGE Class A Common Stock, the “MSGE Common Stock”) equal to such number of shares of MSGN Class B Common Stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by 0.172, with such number rounded up to the next whole share (such number of shares of MSGE Class B Common Stock, the “Class B Merger Consideration”).

Effect on MSG Networks Equity Awards.

The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time, each option to purchase MSGN Class A Common Stock (a “Company Stock Option”), whether vested or unvested, will automatically be assumed by MSG Entertainment and converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of MSGE Class A Common Stock (an “MSGE Stock Option”) equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (x) the number of shares of MSGN Class A Common Stock subject to the Company Stock Option multiplied by (y) 0.172, with a per-share exercise price equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of (a) the per-share exercise of the Company Stock Option divided by (b) 0.172. At the Effective Time, each MSG Networks restricted stock unit award (a “Company RSU”), whether vested or unvested, will automatically be assumed by MSG Entertainment and converted into an MSG Entertainment restricted stock unit award (an “MSGE RSU”) with respect to a number of shares of MSGE Class A Common Stock equal to the product (rounded up or down to the nearest whole share) of (i) the number of shares of MSGN Class A Common Stock subject to the Company RSU multiplied by (ii) 0.172. For each Company Stock Option and Company RSU subject to performance vesting conditions that was outstanding on March 25, 2021, the number of shares of MSGN Class A Common Stock for purposes of the foregoing formulas will be equal to the number of shares of MSGN Class A Common Stock that would be subject to such Company Stock Option or Company RSU assuming the performance conditions applicable thereto were achieved at 100% of target, and the award will remain subject to time-vesting conditions for the remainder of the performance period.

Conditions to the Merger.

The consummation of the Merger is subject to certain conditions, including: (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding MSGN Common Stock, voting together as a single class; (ii) approval of the issuance by MSG Entertainment of the MSGE Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger (the “Share Issuance”) by (a) the holders of a majority of the total votes of the shares of MSGE Common Stock cast on the matter and (b), with respect to the issuance of shares of MSGE Class B Common

Stock in the Share Issuance as Class B Merger Consideration, the holders of not less than 66 2/3% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of MSGE Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class; (iii) the listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the MSGE Class A Common Stock issuable as Class A Merger Consideration; (iv) receipt of certain governmental and other approvals, including the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; (v) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; (vi) the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to register the MSGE Class A Common Stock to be issued as Class A Merger Consideration in the Merger; (vii) the accuracy of the representation and warranties of the parties (subject to customary materiality qualifiers); (viii) each party’s performance in all material respects of its obligations contained in the Merger Agreement; (ix) the absence of any material adverse effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) on MSG Entertainment or MSG Networks since the date of the Merger Agreement; and (x) the receipt by each party from the other party of a required tax representation letter to the extent required by the Merger Agreement.

Termination Rights.

The Merger Agreement contains certain customary termination rights for MSG Networks and MSG Entertainment, including, without limitation, if the Merger is not consummated on or before December 20, 2021 (the “Outside Date”). Upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including (i) a change in the recommendation of the MSGN Board (or the MSGN Special Committee) or the board of directors (or special committee of the board of directors) of MSG Entertainment or (ii) the termination by MSG Networks or MSG Entertainment in order to accept a superior proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) with respect to an alternative transaction, MSG Networks will be required to pay MSG Entertainment a termination fee of $18,900,000 or MSG Entertainment will be required to pay MSG Networks a termination fee of $21,200,000, respectively.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

MSG Networks, MSG Entertainment and Merger Sub have each made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including covenants not to solicit alternative transactions and, subject to certain exceptions, not to participate in discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish non-public information in connection with, a proposal or offer with respect to an alternative transaction. Until the Effective Time, each of MSG Entertainment, MSG Networks and Merger Sub has agreed to operate its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice in all material respects, subject to certain exceptions including in respect of COVID-19 measures and has agreed to certain other restrictive covenants.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon the closing of the Merger, a current director of MSG Networks elected by the holders of MSGN Class A Common Stock, to be designated by the MSGN Board, will be appointed as a director of MSG Entertainment elected by holders of MSGE Class A Common Stock. Such individual will be nominated for election to the MSGE Board as a director to be elected by holders of MSGE Class A Common Stock upon the expiration of his or her initial term of office.

The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the parties that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Forms 10-K and Forms 10-Q filed and to be filed by MSG Networks or MSG Entertainment, the Form S-4 containing a joint proxy statement/prospectus to be filed by MSG Networks and MSG Entertainment in connection with the Merger, and other documents that the parties file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of MSG Networks, MSG Entertainment or any of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates or businesses.

Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results, developments and events may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, the following factors: the impact of public health crises, such as pandemics (including coronavirus (COVID-19)) and epidemics and any related company or government policies and actions to protect the health and safety of individuals or government policies or actions to maintain the functioning of national or global economies and markets; MSG Entertainment’s and MSG Networks’ ability to effectively manage the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken in response by governmental authorities and certain professional sports leagues; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement with respect to the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks or otherwise cause the transaction not to occur; the risk that the conditions to the closing of the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks may not be satisfied or waived, including the risk that required approvals from the stockholders of MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks, regulatory clearances and other approvals are not obtained; the risk that the anticipated tax treatment of the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks is not obtained; potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks; uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks; the risk that the proposed transaction disrupts the current business plans and operations of MSG Entertainment or MSG Networks; the ability of MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks to retain and hire key personnel; unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction; potential adverse reactions or changes to the business relationships of MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed transaction; financial community and rating agency perceptions of each of MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks and its business, operations, financial condition and the industry in which it operates; and the potential impact of general economic, political and market factors on MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks or the proposed transaction. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction between MSG Entertainment and MSG Networks, will be more fully discussed in the joint proxy statement/prospectus that will be included in the registration statement on Form S-4 that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may give rise to risks that are currently unknown or amplify the risks associated with many of these factors.

Reports on Form 10-K, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other SEC filings, including the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained therein.

SECTION 2.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent.

converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and (B) any dividends or other distributions which the holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(d). In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and any dividends or other distributions which the holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(d) may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Company Common Stock (or, if the relevant share of Company Common Stock is a Book-Entry Share, proper evidence of such transfer) is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents reasonably required by the Exchange Agent to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Exchange Agent and Parent that any applicable stock transfer or similar Taxes have been paid or are not payable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2(c), each share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares), and any Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect thereto, shall be deemed at any time from and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration which the holders of shares of Company Common Stock were entitled to receive in respect of such shares pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) (and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.2(d)). No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on any cash payable, if applicable, upon surrender of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share.

(d) Treatment of Unexchanged Shares. All shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by Parent in respect of Parent Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share, until the surrender or transfer of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Article II. Subject to escheat, Tax or other applicable Law, following surrender or transfer of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, such holder shall be paid, without interest (i) at the time of such surrender or transfer, the amount of all dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid or payable as of the date of such surrender or transfer with respect to the Parent Common Stock into which the shares represented by such Certificate or such Book-Entry Shares have been converted as of the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to surrender or transfer and with a payment date subsequent to surrender or transfer payable with respect to the Parent Common Stock into which the shares represented by such Certificate or such Book-Entry Shares have been converted as of the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The shares of Parent Common Stock issued in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock and any dividends or other distributions to which holders become entitled in respect of the issued shares of Parent Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock or Book-Entry Shares (other than Excluded Shares) are presented to Parent or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II.

6

(f) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock (or certificates or scrip representing them) shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(b). For the avoidance of doubt, no Person that is not a record holder of Company Class A Common Stock or Company Class B Common Stock will be entitled hereunder to have any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock rounded up (and such rounding shall only apply with respect to shares of Company Class A Common Stock and/or Company Class B Common Stock held of record by any such record holder), and none of Parent, the Company or Merger Sub shall have any obligation pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i) or Section 2.1(b)(ii) with respect to any Person that is not a record holder of Company Class A Common Stock or Company Class B Common Stock, respectively (or with respect to any shares of Company Class A Common Stock or Company Class B Common Stock, respectively, held in any manner other than as shares held of record by such record holder).

(g) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Common Stock for one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent and any holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration and any dividends and distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Article II, in each case without any interest thereon.

(h) No Liability. None of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as of immediately prior to such date on which the Exchange Fund would otherwise escheat to, or become the property of, any Governmental Authority) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(i) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement any amounts required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Tax Law. Amounts so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(j) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration and any dividends and distributions on the Certificate deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

(a) Company Stock Options. Each Company Stock Option, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into a Parent Stock Option to purchase (i) that number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the total number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Class A Exchange Ratio, (ii) at a per-share exercise price (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Company Class A Common Stock at which such Company Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Class A Exchange Ratio; provided that for each Company Stock Option subject to performance vesting conditions that is outstanding on the date of this Agreement and that remains outstanding at the Effective Time, (x) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock used in clause (i)(A) of this sentence shall be equal to the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock that would be subject to such Company Stock Option assuming the performance conditions applicable thereto were achieved at 100% of target and (y) each such Company Stock Option shall convert to a Parent Stock Option with time-based vesting conditions for the remainder of the applicable performance period. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.3(a), each such Parent Stock Option shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Company RSU Awards. Each Company RSU Award, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into a Parent RSU Award with respect to a number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (rounded up or down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock subject to such Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time by (ii) the Class A Exchange Ratio; provided that for each Company RSU Award subject to performance vesting conditions that is outstanding on the date of this Agreement and that remains outstanding at the Effective Time, (x) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock used in clause (i) of this sentence shall be equal to the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock that would be subject to such Company RSU Award assuming the performance conditions applicable thereto were achieved at 100% of target and (y) each such Company RSU Award shall convert to a Parent RSU Award with time-based vesting conditions for the remainder of the applicable performance period. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.3(b), each such Parent RSU Award shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

8

(c) Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all Company Equity Awards shall be treated in a manner so as not to result in the incurrence of a penalty tax under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, transactions with respect to Company Equity Awards shall be subject to the withholding requirements as provided in Section 2.2(i).

(d) Company Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Company Stock Plans) shall pass resolutions and take any actions which are necessary to effect the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3. In accordance with this Section 2.3, as of the Effective Time, each holder of a Company Equity Award shall cease to have any rights with respect to shares of Company Class A Common Stock, and the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the Effective Time, none of Parent or any of its Affiliates will be required to deliver shares of Company Class A Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company to any Person pursuant to or in settlement of any Company Equity Awards.

(e) Parent Actions. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, if and to the extent necessary to cause a sufficient number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock to be registered and issuable under the Parent Stock Plan with respect to the Parent Equity Awards to be issued pursuant to Section 2.3(a) and Section 2.3(b), Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to the Parent Equity Awards to be issued pursuant to Section 2.3(a) and Section 2.3(b).

SECTION 2.4 Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, consolidation or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then any number or amount contained herein which is based upon the number of shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock, as the case may be, will be appropriately adjusted to provide to Parent and the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit Parent or the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

41

Committee may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change if either (x) in the case of a Company Adverse Recommendation Change made in response to a Company Acquisition Proposal, the Company Board or the Company Special Committee has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal and that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (y) in the case of a Company Adverse Recommendation Change made in response to a Company Intervening Event, the Company Board or the Company Special Committee has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that, as a result of a Company Intervening Event, the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board and the Company Special Committee shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in connection with a Company Superior Proposal unless (I) the Company has given Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action (which notice shall reasonably describe the material terms of the Company Superior Proposal or attach the agreement and all material related documentation providing for such Company Superior Proposal), (II) the Company has negotiated, and has caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent during such notice period, to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate, to enable Parent to propose in writing a binding offer to effect revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that it would cause such Company Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Company Superior Proposal, (III) following the end of such notice period, the Company Board or the Company Special Committee shall have considered in good faith any such binding offer from Parent, and shall have determined that the Company Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Company Superior Proposal if the revisions proposed in such binding offer were to be given effect and (IV) in the event of any material change to the material terms of such Company Superior Proposal, the Company shall, in each case, have delivered to Parent an additional notice consistent with that described in clause (I) above and the notice period shall have recommenced, except that the notice period shall be at least two (2) Business Days (rather than the four (4) Business Days otherwise contemplated by clause (I) above); provided, further, that the Company Board and the Company Special Committee shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in connection with a Company Intervening Event unless (1) the Company has given Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action (which notice shall reasonably describe the details of such Company Intervening Event), (2) the Company has negotiated, and has caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent during such notice period, to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate, to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board not to take such action and (3) following the end of such notice period, the Company Board or the Company Special Committee shall have considered in good faith any changes to this Agreement or other arrangements that may be offered in writing by Parent prior to the termination of such notice period and shall have, after taking account of such changes, determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and outside financial advisors, that such Company Intervening Event remains in effect and that it would continue to reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law not to take such action.

42

(e) Nothing in this Section 5.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to stockholders in connection with the making or amendment of a tender offer or exchange offer); provided that any such disclosure or statement that constitutes or contains a Company Adverse Recommendation Change shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.3(d), (ii) from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act pending disclosure of its position thereunder or (iii) contacting and engaging in discussions with any person or group and their respective Representatives who has made a Company Acquisition Proposal that was not solicited in material breach of this Section 5.3 solely for the purpose of clarifying such Company Acquisition Proposal and the terms thereof or informing such third party of the restrictions imposed by this Section 5.3.

SECTION 6.3 Required Actions.

(a) Each of the parties hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, and assist and cooperate with the other parties hereto in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate and make effective, as soon as reasonably possible, the Transactions, including using reasonable best efforts in (i) the obtaining of all required Consents at least four Business Days prior to the Effective Time, and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (and in any event, by filing within 10 Business Days after the date of this Agreement the notifications, filings and other information required to be filed under the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions) and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain a Consent from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Authority; (ii) the obtaining of all consents, approvals and waivers required by the terms of any material Contracts with third parties or material Permits in connection with the Transactions; (iii) the contesting and defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the Transactions, including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Authority vacated or reversed; and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Transactions.

(b) The parties hereto shall cooperate with one another regarding the strategy for obtaining any required Consent. Each of the parties shall (i) promptly notify the other party of any substantive communication, inquiry or investigation received by that party from, or given by it to, any Governmental Authority and, subject to applicable Law, permit the other party to review in advance any proposed written communication to any such Governmental Authority and incorporate the other party’s reasonable comments to any such communication to a Governmental Authority; (ii) not agree to participate in any substantive meeting or discussion with any such Governmental Authority in respect of any filing, investigation or inquiry concerning this Agreement or the Transactions unless, to the extent reasonably practicable, it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate therein; and (iv) promptly furnish the other party with drafts of all substantive correspondence, filings and written communications between it and its Representatives, on the one hand, and any such Governmental Authority or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions, in order for such other party to meaningfully consult and participate in such correspondence, filing or written communication; provided that the materials furnished pursuant to this Section 6.3(b) may be redacted as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege, to remove references concerning valuation, as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements or as otherwise required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent shall, after consulting in good faith with the Company and taking into account any reasonable input from the Company, determine the strategy to be pursued for obtaining, and lead the effort to obtain, all required Consents in connection with this Agreement and the Company shall take all reasonable actions to support Parent in connection therewith; provided that none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to incur any non-de minimis fees, costs or expenses in connection with obtaining any Consent.

49

(c) In connection with the obtaining of required Consents, Parent’s “reasonable best efforts” shall include taking any and all actions necessary to obtain the consents, approvals, permits, wait period expirations or authorizations of any Governmental Authority required to consummate the Transactions (including the Merger) prior to the Outside Date, including proposing, negotiating, committing to, effecting and agreeing to, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, any undertaking, divestiture, sale, license or hold separate or similar arrangement or conduct of business arrangement or to terminate or modify any relationships, rights or obligations or to do any other act, regardless of whether such act would or would reasonably be expected to result in (i) a prohibition or limitation on the ownership, operation or freedom of action by the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries of or with respect to any portion of the business, properties or assets of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (ii) the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries being compelled to dispose of or hold separate any portion of the business, properties or assets of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, in each case as a result of the Merger, (iii) any prohibition or limitation on the ability of Parent to acquire or hold, or exercise full right of ownership of, any shares of the Company Capital Stock or the capital stock of the Company Subsidiaries, including the right to vote or (iv) any prohibition or limitation on Parent effectively controlling the business or operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries ((i)-(iv), the “Regulatory Actions”) and (v) opposing, fully and vigorously, (A) any Action that is initiated or threatened to be initiated challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and (B) any request for, the entry of, and seek to have vacated or terminated, any Order that could restrain, prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, in each case, by defending through litigation any action asserted by any Person in any court or before any Governmental Authority, and vigorously pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial relief or appeal; provided that (x) Parent shall not be required to accept or agree to any Regulatory Action that would result in, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on either (1) Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (2) the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (3) the anticipated benefits of the Merger to Parent and (y) nothing in this Section 6.3 shall require Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to take or agree to take Regulatory Action unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the Closing.

SECTION 6.4 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of each former and present (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) director, officer or employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and each person who served as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (each, together with such person’s heirs, executors or administrators, a “D&O Indemnified Party”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, inquiries, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any Action with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including this Agreement, the Transactions and other actions contemplated hereby), arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the D&O Indemnified Party is or was an officer or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint

50

venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise or other Person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws (or comparable organizational documents) as in effect on the date of this Agreement or in any agreement, a true and complete copy of which agreement has been made available (including by filing with the SEC) by the Company prior to the date hereof, to which the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries is a party, shall survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, maintain in effect (to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law) the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s and any Company Subsidiary’s articles of incorporation and by-laws or other organization documents in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time or in any agreement, in each case in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be maintained in effect the coverage provided by the policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance in effect as of the Effective Time by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on terms and conditions not less favorable to the insured Persons than, and from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as, the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company with respect to claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions that occurred on or before the Effective Time, except that in no event shall Parent be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 350% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance (the “Maximum Amount”); provided, however, that if such insurance can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Amount, Parent shall obtain the most advantageous policy of directors’ and officers’ insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Amount. In lieu of the foregoing, the Company may in its discretion purchase, and Parent may in its discretion purchase if the Company declines to do so, a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance policy covering the six (6)-year period from and after the Effective Time from a carrier with comparable or better credit ratings to the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance and fiduciary liability insurance policy carrier and on terms and conditions not less favorable to the insured Persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company with respect to claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions that occurred on or before the Effective Time; provided that without Parent’s consent, the cost of such “tail” policy shall not exceed the Maximum Amount (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that this sentence shall not release any obligation of Parent set forth in the preceding sentence unless and until a “tail” policy is actually obtained).

(c) Except as set forth in Section 6.4(c) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, in the event that Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent or the Surviving Company shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

51

(d) At and after the Effective Time, Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless (and advance funds in respect of the foregoing; provided, however, that the D&O Indemnified Party to whom funds are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification under Law applicable to Parent) each D&O Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law against any costs or expenses, judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened Action, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the D&O Indemnified Party is or was an officer, employee or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise or other Person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time. Parent and the Surviving Company shall reasonably cooperate with the D&O Indemnified Party in the defense of any such Action.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.4 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Party.

SECTION 6.5 Employment Matters.

(a) Each Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue in employment with Parent and its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) immediately following the Effective Time (such employees, the “Continuing Employees”). Following the Effective Time, Parent and its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) shall honor and perform in accordance with their terms all Company Plans, including all employment, severance, bonus, transaction, incentive and other compensation arrangements.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 6.5(b) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, for a period of not less than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Company to provide, to each Continuing Employee, (i) base salary or regular hourly wage, as applicable, that is not less than the base salary or regular hourly wage, as applicable, provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) cash bonus, commission or annual incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than the cash bonus, commission or annual incentive opportunities (which, with respect to equity-based compensation, shall be determined based on target grant date fair market value) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (iii) employee and fringe benefits (including, vacation/leave, health, welfare, retirement and severance benefits) that are at least as favorable, in the aggregate, as (A) those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing or (B) those provided to similarly situated employees of Parent.

(c) Effective as of the Effective Time and thereafter, Parent shall recognize, or shall (if and to the same extent recognized under an analogous Parent Plan prior to Closing) cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to recognize, each Continuing Employee’s employment or service with the Company (including any current or former Affiliate thereof or any

52

predecessor of the Company) prior to the Closing for purposes of determining, as applicable, eligibility for participation, vesting and entitlement of the Continuing Employee under all employee benefit plans maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Company), including vacation plans or arrangements, 401(k) plans and any severance plans, but excluding defined benefit pension plans and except to the extent such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, effective as of the Effective Time and thereafter, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause any pre-existing conditions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods, actively at work requirements, evidence of insurability requirements or required physical examinations under any health or similar plan of the Company, Parent or an Affiliate of Parent (in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate) to be waived with respect to Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents, except to the extent that any waiting period, exclusions or requirements still applied to such Continuing Employee under the comparable Company Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Closing, and (ii) fully credit each Continuing Employee with all deductible payments, co-payments and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under the medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefit plans of the Company prior to the Closing during the plan year in which the Closing occurs for the purpose of determining the extent to which such Continuing Employee has satisfied the deductible, co-payments, or maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for such plan year under any medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefit plan of the Company, Parent or an Affiliate of Parent (in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate) as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such plan.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent and the Company acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 6.5 are included for the sole benefit of Parent and the Company, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, (i) shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Parent Plan or Company Plan, (ii) shall limit the right of Parent, the Company or their respective Affiliates to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Parent Plan or Company Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement following the Closing Date, or (iii) shall confer upon any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (including any equityholder, any current or former director, manager, officer, employee or independent contractor of the Company, or any participant in any Company Plan or Parent Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof)), any right to continued or resumed employment or recall, any right to compensation or benefits, or any third-party beneficiary or other right of any kind or nature whatsoever.

SECTION 6.6 Certain Tax Matters.

(a) Reorganization. From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Effective Time, each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (ii) not knowingly take any action, cause or permit any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could reasonably be expected to prevent such qualification.

53

(b) Representation Letters. Each of Parent and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to deliver to each of Parent Tax Counsel and Company Tax Counsel representation letters dated as of the Closing Date (and if requested, dated as of the date determined necessary by counsel in connection with any SEC filings) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Parent Tax Representation Letter”) or, in the case of the Company, Exhibit E (the “Company Tax Representation Letter,” and together with the Parent Tax Representation Letter, the “Tax Representation Letters”) and signed by an officer or director of Parent or the Company, as applicable.

(c) Opinion from Alternative Tax Counsel. In connection with the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 7.2(e), Parent agrees that if Parent receives a Parent Change in Law Opinion from Parent Tax Counsel, it shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain a Merger Tax Opinion from alternative tax counsel of similar standing. In connection with the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 7.3(e), the Company agrees that if the Company receives a Company Change in Law Opinion from Company Tax Counsel, it shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain a Merger Tax Opinion from alternative tax counsel of similar standing. Each of Parent and the Company shall cooperate fully with alternative tax counsel, including by providing the necessary representation letters and other materials reasonably requested by alternative tax counsel to either party. In the event that alternative tax counsel is unwilling or unable to deliver the required opinion with the requisite level of certainty, and that Parent or the Company, as applicable, has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such opinion from alternative tax counsel, then Parent or the Company, as applicable, shall not be required to select any other alternative tax counsel.

(d) Parent and the Company agree that if either party cannot deliver a Tax Representation Letter at the Closing, the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to modifications to the Tax Representation Letter or to the structure of the acquisition contemplated by this Agreement (which change in structure would not be reasonably be expected to result in any material cost to Parent or the Company) that would nonetheless permit Parent Tax Counsel and Company Tax Counsel to provide Merger Tax Opinions at the Closing.

SECTION 6.7 Transaction Litigation. Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any litigation against the Company or its directors or officers by a holder of securities of the Company relating to the Transactions and no such settlement shall be agreed to without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Without limiting in any way the parties’ obligations under Section 6.3, each of Parent and the Company shall cooperate and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries and the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, to cooperate, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its directors, officers, employees, agents, legal counsel, financial advisors, independent auditors, and other advisors and representatives to cooperate, in the defense against any litigation by a holder of securities of the Company or of Parent, as applicable.

54

SECTION 6.8 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub each shall take all such steps as may be required to cause (a) any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each individual who will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and (b) any acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the Merger and the other Transactions, by each individual who may become or is reasonably expected to become subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Parent to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

SECTION 6.9 Public Announcements. Except with respect to any Company Adverse Recommendation Change or Parent Adverse Recommendation Change made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in connection with Section 5.3 or 5.4, Parent and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to develop a joint communications plan and to consult with each other before issuing, and give each other the opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to the Transactions, and not to issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation, except as such party may reasonably conclude may be required by applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system. The Company and Parent agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the Transactions shall be in the form heretofore agreed to by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences of this Section 6.9, Parent and the Company may make any oral or written public announcements, releases or statements without complying with the foregoing requirements if the substance of such announcements, releases or statements, was publicly disclosed and previously subject to the foregoing requirements.

SECTION 6.10 Stock Exchange Listing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Class A Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Closing Date.

SECTION 6.11 Certain Governance Matters. Parent shall take all actions necessary so that at the Effective Time (a) the size of the Parent Board is increased by one (1) Common Stock Director (as defined in the Parent Charter) and (b) one Common Stock Director (as defined in the Company Charter) of the Company elected by the holders of Company Class A Common Stock, to be designated by the Company Board, shall be appointed to the Parent Board as a Common Stock Director (as defined in the Parent Charter) elected by holders of Parent Class A Common Stock. Such individual shall be nominated for election to the Parent Board as a Common Stock Director (as defined in the Parent Charter) elected by holders of Parent Class A Common Stock upon the expiration of his or her initial term of office as a director of Parent.

SECTION 9.5 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Annex, an Exhibit, an Article or a Section, such reference shall be to an Annex, an Exhibit, an Article or a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents, index of defined terms and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof”, “hereto”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. The use of “or” is not intended to be exclusive unless expressly indicated otherwise. Any agreement, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, unless otherwise specifically indicated and any reference to a statute shall be deemed to refer to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” and “$” will be deemed references to the lawful money of the United States of America. Each of the parties hereto has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement and, if an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement must be construed as if it is drafted by all the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Whenever this Agreement requires a Subsidiary of Parent

74

(including Merger Sub) to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of Parent to cause such Subsidiary to take such action and, after the Effective Time, on the part of the Surviving Company to cause such Subsidiary to take such action. A document, agreement or other information shall be deemed to be “made available” to a party, without limitation, if such party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party thereto or if such party or any of its Subsidiaries has access to such document, agreement or other information in the ordinary course of business or if a copy thereof has been provided to such party or its Subsidiaries or Representatives prior to the date hereof.

SECTION 9.6 Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) the information and disclosures contained in any Section of the Parent Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in each other Section of the Parent Disclosure Schedule as though fully set forth in such other Section to the extent the applicability and relevance of such information to such other Section is reasonably apparent on the face of such information and (b) the information and disclosures contained in any Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in each other Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule as though fully set forth in such other Section to the extent the applicability and relevance of such information to such other Section is reasonably apparent on the face of such information. Certain items and matters are listed in the Disclosure Schedules for informational purposes only and may not be required to be listed therein by the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall the listing of items or matters in a Disclosure Schedule be deemed or interpreted to broaden, or otherwise expand the scope of, the representations and warranties or the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement. No reference to, or disclosure of, any item or matter in any Section of this Agreement or any Section of a Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or matter is material or required to be disclosed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no disclosure of any item in a Disclosure Schedule, including any reference to or disclosure of a possible breach or violation of any contract, Law or Order, shall be construed as an admission, indication or acknowledgement of any liability or obligation with respect to any third party or that a breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

SECTION 9.7 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as either the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or such party waives its rights under this Section 9.7 with respect thereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are consummated to the extent possible.

SECTION 9.8 Amendment. Prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement may be amended by the parties at any time before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval or the Parent Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that (i) after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there shall be made no amendment that, by Law, requires further approval by the stockholders of the Company without the further approval of such stockholders and (ii) after receipt of the Parent Stockholder Approval, there shall be made no amendment that, by Law, requires further approval by the stockholders of Parent without the further approval of such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.

75

At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, (c) waive compliance with any covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or (d) waive the satisfaction of any of the conditions contained in this Agreement. No extension or waiver by Parent shall require the approval of the stockholders of Parent unless such approval is required by Law and no extension or waiver by the Company shall require the approval of the stockholders of the Company unless such approval is required by Law. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

SECTION 9.10 Special Committee Approval. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no decision or determination shall be made, or action taken, by Parent or the Company under or with respect to this Agreement without first obtaining the approval of the applicable Special Committee.

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

SECTION 9.12 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, taken together with the Parent Disclosure Schedule, the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Parent Voting and Support Agreement, the Company Voting and Support Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, (a) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the Transactions and (b) is not intended to and does not confer upon any Person other than the parties any rights or remedies, except for (i) the right of a party hereto on behalf of its stockholders to seek equitable relief or to pursue damages suffered by such party and its stockholders (which damages the parties acknowledge and agree may include the benefit of the bargain lost by such party’s stockholders) in the event of wrongful termination of this Agreement, fraud or Intentional Breach by the other party hereto (or any of its Subsidiaries), which right is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto and (ii) the right of the D&O Indemnified Parties to enforce the provisions of Section 6.4.

SECTION 9.13 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that Parent and Merger Sub may assign their rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent so long as Parent continues to remain primarily liable for all of such rights and obligations as if no such assignment had occurred. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

76

SECTION 9.14 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

(b) Each of the parties hereto agrees that any Action with respect to this Agreement, arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the rights and obligations hereunder shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery, or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction over such Action, any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware.

SECTION 9.15 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties hereto would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that, except where this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, the parties hereto shall be entitled (on behalf of themselves and the third-party beneficiaries of the merger agreement) to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties hereto further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.

77
