Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On February 19, 2025, Herc Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among H&E Equipment Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“H&E”), the Company and HR Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides for the acquisition of H&E by Merger Sub in a two-step cash and stock transaction, consisting of a tender offer, followed by a subsequent back-end merger.

The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Offer (as defined below) and the Merger (as defined below), were unanimously approved and declared advisable by the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon and subject to the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, the Company will cause Merger Sub to commence a cash and stock tender offer (the “Offer”) to acquire any and all of the issued and outstanding shares of H&E’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), in exchange for, on a per-Share basis, (i) $78.75 in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding of taxes (the “Cash Offer Price”), and (ii) 0.1287 shares of Company common stock, without interest (the “Stock Offer Price,” and together with the Cash Offer Price, the “Offer Price”). The Offer will initially remain open for twenty business days from the date of commencement of the Offer. If at the scheduled expiration time of the Offer any of the conditions to the Offer have not been satisfied or waived by the Company and Merger Sub, the Company will cause Merger Sub to extend the Offer for additional periods of up to 10 business days per extension, to permit such Offer conditions to be satisfied.

Following the consummation of the Offer, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into H&E, with H&E surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”), pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, without a meeting or vote of H&E’s stockholders. The Merger will be effected as soon as practicable following the acceptance for payment of the Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer, and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Shares that were not tendered and purchased in the Offer will, as a result of the Merger, be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder thereof, without interest and subject to any required withholding of taxes.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”):

The obligation of Merger Sub to acquire Shares tendered in the Offer is subject to customary conditions, including, among other conditions, (i) Shares having been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn that represent, together with the Shares (if any) then owned by Parent and its affiliates, at least one Share more than 50% of the then outstanding Shares, (ii) the accuracy of H&E’s representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to customary materiality qualifiers), (iii) H&E’s performance of its obligations under the Merger Agreement in all material respects, (iv) the absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement, with “Company” referring to H&E and its subsidiaries) that is continuing, (v) (A) the absence of any legal or regulatory restraint that prevents the consummation of the Offer or the Merger, (B) the expiration of any waiting periods applicable to the Offer and the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), (C) the Form S-4 to be filed by the Company in connection with the issuance of shares of Company common stock in the Merger having become effective and not subject to any legal proceedings suspending such effectiveness and (D) such shares of Company common stock having been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, (vi) the absence of a termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, and (vii) the commencement and completion of the Marketing Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

The Merger Agreement contains various customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of H&E’s business prior to the Effective Time. The Merger Agreement contains a “hell or high water” covenant that requires the Company to take all action necessary and otherwise consistent with Section 7.2 in the Merger Agreement to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods pursuant to the HSR Act, including agreeing to sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, businesses or interest and to any material changes or restriction on its ability to own or operate any such assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines businesses or interest as needed to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods pursuant to the HSR Act. Further to the covenant, neither party will take any action, or omit to take any action, which action or omission is intended to or has (or would reasonably be expected to have) the effect of preventing, impairing, delaying or otherwise adversely affecting (i) the consummation of the Merger; or (ii) the ability of such Parties to fully perform their obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

The Merger Agreement contains a customary “no-shop” provision that restricts H&E’s ability to solicit acquisition proposals from third parties and to provide non-public information to and engage in discussions or negotiations with third parties regarding acquisition proposals; provided, however, that if H&E receives an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and H&E’s board of directors (the “H&E Board”) determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal and financial advisors that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a “Superior Proposal” (a bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal for at least 50% of H&E that the H&E Board determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel is reasonably likely to be consummated and to be more favorable to H&E’s stockholders from a financial point of view than the transaction with the Company) that did not result from a breach of the non-solicitation provision, H&E may (i) furnish information to the person making the proposal and (ii) engage in discussions and negotiations.

The Merger Agreement also provides for a 12-business-day marketing period, which begins on the business day following the date on which (i) certain closing conditions, including the obtainment of HSR clearance, have been satisfied and (ii) H&E has delivered certain required financial information (the “Required Information”) to the Company and its financing sources. During such marketing period, the Required Information must remain Compliant (as defined in the Merger Agreement), including compliant with rules promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). If the marketing period has begun but has not been completed by November 24, 2025, which constitutes the date on which either the Company or H&E can terminate the Merger Agreement, such date will be automatically extended to five business days following the then-scheduled end of the marketing period.

The Merger Agreement also contains customary termination provisions for each of the Company and H&E. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement, H&E, under certain circumstances, including termination of the Merger Agreement by H&E to accept and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal, will be required to pay the Company a termination fee of $144,842,468. Further, if the Merger Agreement is terminated (other than due to breach by the Company), then H&E will be required to refund to the Company the URI termination fee of $63,523,892 paid by the Company on H&E’s behalf. This refund obligation is in addition to the payment of the termination fee described above, if triggered.

The Merger Agreement also requires that the H&E Board recommend that the stockholders of H&E accept the Offer and tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer and not, among other things, (i) withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify, the H&E Board’s recommendation in a manner adverse to the Company; (ii) adopt, approve, recommend or otherwise declare advisable an acquisition proposal or approve, recommend, declare advisable or publicly propose to enter into, any alternative acquisition agreement; (iii) fail to include the H&E Board’s recommendation in the Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 or, if any acquisition proposal (other than an acquisition proposal initiated through a tender or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) has been made public, fail to reaffirm the H&E Board’s recommendation upon written request of the Company within the earlier of three business days prior to the then scheduled expiration date or five business days after the Company requests in writing such reaffirmation with respect to such acquisition proposal; (iv) with respect to an acquisition proposal initiated through a tender or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act, fail to recommend unequivocally against acceptance of such offer within 10 business days of commencement of such offer (or within 10 business days of a material modification of such offer); or (v) agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding these restrictions, the H&E Board is permitted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, to change its recommendation and to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a Superior Proposal (subject to payment of the termination fee discussed above) or change its recommendation in response to an Intervening Event (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement, and the foregoing description of the Merger Agreement, have been included to provide investors and our stockholders with information regarding the terms of the Merger. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement (i) were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement, (ii) were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, (iii) have been qualified by documents filed with, or furnished to, the SEC prior to the date of the Merger Agreement, (iv) may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties to the Merger Agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, (v) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Merger Agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors and (vi) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company, H&E or their businesses. The Merger Agreement and this summary should not be relied upon as disclosure about the Company or H&E. Investors should not rely on the representations and warranties or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, H&E or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover,

information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company or H&E’s public disclosures. The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the Company or H&E that has been, is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q, Forms 8-K, proxy statements and other documents that the Company and H&E file with the SEC.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

The Company has obtained committed debt financing from Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank (“CACIB”) to finance the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement pursuant to a commitment letter, dated as of February 19, 2025 (the “Commitment Letter”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter, CACIB has committed to (i) provide a senior secured 364-day term loan bridge facility (the “Bridge Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $4.5 billion and (ii) backstop an amendment to the Company’s existing ABL Credit Agreement (the “Backstop ABL Facility” and, together with the Bridge Facility, collectively, the “Facilities”) in order to, among other things, permit the incurrence of the Bridge Facility and any other permanent financing issued in lieu thereof. The Facilities are available together with cash on hand to, among other things, finance the consideration payable by the Company under the Merger Agreement. The funding of the Facilities provided for in the Commitment Letter is contingent on the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the consummation of the Merger. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are not subject to any financing condition.

25

3.7 Effect of the Merger.

(a) Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Buyer Parties, the Company or the holders of any of the Company Common Stock or any shares of capital stock of Parent or Merger Sub, the following will occur:

(i) each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, and thereupon each certificate representing ownership of such shares of common stock of Merger Sub will thereafter represent ownership of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation;

(ii) each share of Company Common Stock that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (A) Dissenting Company Shares to be treated in accordance with Section 3.7(c) and (B) Owned Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.7(a)(iii)) will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, without interest thereon (the “Per Share Price”), subject to any withholding of Tax in accordance with Section 3.12, and in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and bond, if required) in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.11); and

(iii) each Owned Company Share (as treasury stock or otherwise) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Adjustment to the Per Share Price. The Per Share Price will be adjusted appropriately (and subject to the terms of the Charter) to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock distribution or dividend (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock, as applicable), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other similar change with respect to Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock (as applicable) occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time; provided that nothing in this Section 3.7(b) shall be construed to permit the Company or Parent to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by this Agreement.

(c) Statutory Rights of Appraisal.

(i) Subject to the last sentence of this Section 3.7(c), all shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by Company Stockholders who shall have properly and validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and have not effectively withdrawn or otherwise waived or lost such right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL (such shares being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Company Shares” until such time as the holder thereof fails to perfect, withdraws, waives or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the Laws of the State of Delaware with respect to such shares) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Per Share Price pursuant to this Section 3.7, the Merger Fractional Share Payout pursuant to Section 3.7(d) or any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.13(b). No holders of Dissenting Company Shares shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Price, the Merger Fractional Share Payout pursuant to Section 3.7(d) or any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.13(b) with respect to the Dissenting Company Shares owned by such holder and each holder of Dissenting Company Shares will be entitled to receive only payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (and in such case, at the Effective Time, the Dissenting Company Shares will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Company Shares will cease to have any rights with regard thereto except such holder’s right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Company Shares to the extent afforded by Section 262 of the DGCL), except that all Dissenting Company Shares held by Company

26

Stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Company Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL will cease to be Dissenting Company Shares and will thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Price, the Merger Fractional Share Payout pursuant to Section 3.7(d) and any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.13(b), in each case without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 3.9.

(ii) The Company will give Parent (A) prompt notice and copies of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, actual, attempted or purported withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to (or purportedly pursuant to) the DGCL and received by the Company in respect of Dissenting Company Shares; and (B) a reasonable opportunity to direct all negotiations and Legal Proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal pursuant to the DGCL in respect of Dissenting Company Shares, including any determination to make any payment or deposit with respect to any of the holders of Dissenting Company Shares with respect to any of their Dissenting Company Shares under Section 262(h) of the DGCL prior to the entry of judgment in the Legal Proceedings regarding appraisal. The Company may not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment or deposit with respect to any demands for appraisal or settle or offer to settle any such demands for payment in respect of Dissenting Company Shares or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing.

(d) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, and no certificate, receipt or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each holder of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all shares represented by the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by the VWAP, rounded to the nearest cent (with 0.5 of a cent being rounded upward) (the “Merger Fractional Share Payout”).

3.8 Equity Awards.

(a) Company RSAs.

(i) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each Company RSA set forth on Section 3.8(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Single-Trigger RSA”) shall, without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be fully vested, cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive (A) an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSA, multiplied by (y) the Cash Offer Price, and (B) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSA, multiplied by (y) the Stock Offer Price, in each case, subject to any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof (the “Company RSA Consideration”).

(ii) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each Company RSA that is not a Single-Trigger RSA and that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and be substituted with an award of restricted stock units granted under the Parent 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan in respect of a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (each, a “Parent RSU”) equal to (rounded down to the nearest whole number) (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSA immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (2) the

27

Equity Award Exchange Ratio. Except as specifically provided above or as set forth on Section 3.8(a)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter, following the Effective Time, each Parent RSU shall vest according to the same vesting schedule and shall have forfeiture conditions no less favorable to the holder of such Parent RSU than the forfeiture conditions that were applicable to the applicable Company RSA immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Company PSUs. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, except as set forth on Section 3.8(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, each Company PSU, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be fully vested, cancelled and automatically converted, without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, into the right to receive (A) an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company PSU (together with any accrued and unpaid dividends or dividend equivalents corresponding to such Company PSU), multiplied by (y) the Cash Offer Price, and (B) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company PSU, multiplied by (y) the Stock Offer Price, in each case, subject to any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof (the “Company PSU Consideration”); provided, that any performance conditions applicable to the Company PSUs shall deemed to be earned based at the target level of performance; provided, further, that any performance conditions applicable to performance periods that have ended prior to the Effective Time will be deemed earned based on the actual level of performance.

(c) Payment Procedures. The Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall pay (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to so pay), no later than the first payroll date following the Closing Date, the cash portion of each of the Company RSA Consideration and the Company PSU Consideration, as applicable, payable with respect to each of the Single-Trigger RSAs and Company PSUs, respectively, through the Company Group’s payroll to the applicable holders of such Single-Trigger RSAs and Company PSUs; provided, however, that to the extent the holder of such Single-Trigger RSA or Company PSU is not and was not at any time during the applicable vesting period an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, such amounts shall not be paid through the Company Group’s payroll, but shall be paid by the Payment Agent pursuant to Section 3.9; provided, further, that the non-cash portion of each of the Company RSA Consideration and the Company PSU Consideration, as applicable, payable with respect to each of the Single-Trigger RSAs and Company PSUs, respectively, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9, subject to any withholding of Tax in accordance with Section 3.12.

(d) Further Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will pass resolutions approving and take other actions as may be reasonably necessary or required to effect the cancellation of Company PSUs and Company RSAs upon the Effective Time in exchange for the consideration set forth herein, and to give effect to this Section 3.8 (including the satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 16b-3(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act). The Company Equity Plans will terminate as of the Effective Time, and the provisions in any other Employee Plan or Contract providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the capital stock or other equity interests of the Company Group will be cancelled as of the Effective Time, and the Company will take all action necessary to effect the foregoing.

3.9 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Depository Agent and Payment Agent. Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall enter into an agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company (such acceptance not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed) with a depository agent and a paying agent selected by Parent after reasonable consultation with the Company (the “Payment Agent Agreement”), to act as agent for the Company Stockholders in connection with the Offer and the Merger for the holders of Company Common Stock to receive the aggregate Offer Price to which the holders of such Company Common Stock shall become entitled to pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (the “Depository Agent”) and for the holders of Company Common Stock to receive the aggregate Per Share Price to which the holders of such Company Common Stock shall become entitled pursuant to Section 3.7 (the “Payment Agent”).

28

(b) Exchange Fund. At or immediately following the Offer Acceptance Time, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited), with the Depository Agent, (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.1(b), an amount of cash equal to the aggregate Cash Offer Price to which the holders of shares of Company Common Stock shall become entitled to pursuant to Section 2.1(h), including the aggregate Offer Fractional Share Payout, and (ii) for payment to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.1(b), a number of shares of Parent Common Stock in book entry form equal to the aggregate Stock Offer Price. At or immediately following the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited), on behalf of Merger Sub, with the Payment Agent, (A) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 3.7, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate cash consideration to which such holders become entitled pursuant to Section 3.7, including the aggregate Merger Fractional Share Payout, and (B) for payment to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 3.7, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock in book entry form equal to the aggregate Parent Common Stock consideration to which such holders become entitled pursuant to Section 3.7 (which, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of this Section 3.9(b)(ii)(B), shall not include the Company RSA Consideration or the Company PSU Consideration). On the payment date of any dividend or distribution with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to the surrender of any applicable unsurrendered Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, for the benefit of the applicable holders of Company Common Stock, for payment in accordance with this Article III through the Payment Agent, the aggregate dividend or distribution amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.13(b). Pursuant to the Payment Agent Agreement and until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, all cash will be invested by the Payment Agent, if and as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in (i) obligations of or fully guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States with a maturity of no more than 30 days; (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively; or (iii) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10,000,000,000 (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) (collectively, such deposits with the Depository Agent and with the Payment Agent, and any proceeds thereon, along with the shares of Parent Common Stock, the “Exchange Fund”). To the extent that (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund; (B) the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Payment Agent or the Depository Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.1(h) and Section 3.7, as applicable; or (C) all or any portion of the Exchange Fund is unavailable for the prompt payment of the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.1(h) and Section 3.7 for any reason, Parent will, or will cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Depository Agent and the Payment Agent to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.1(h) and Section 3.7. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable, as directed by Parent, to Parent, the Surviving Corporation, or otherwise as Parent directs.

(c) Payment Procedures. Promptly following the Closing (and in any event within three Business Days following the Closing), Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of (i) a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Company Shares) (the “Certificates”); or (ii) uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Company Shares) (the “Uncertificated Shares”): (A) in the case of holders of Certificates, a letter of transmittal in customary form (which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payment Agent); and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares, as applicable, in exchange for the Per Share Price, payable in respect thereof. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Payment Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (I) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock

29

represented by such Certificate by (2) the Cash Offer Price, plus the applicable Merger Fractional Share Payout (subject to Section 3.12), and (II) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate by (2) the Stock Offer Price, and the Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (I) an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares by (y) the Cash Offer Price, plus the applicable Merger Fractional Share Payout (subject to Section 3.12), and (II) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares by (y) the Stock Offer Price, and the transferred Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be cancelled. The Payment Agent will accept such Certificates and transferred Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Payment Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Per Share Price, payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 3.9(c). Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the Per Share Price without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no holder of Uncertificated Shares will be required to provide a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Payment Agent in order to receive the payment that such holder is entitled to receive in respect thereof.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. Subject, in all cases, to the terms and conditions of the Charter in respect of Company Common Stock, if a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock is not registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company or if the Per Share Price is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares surrendered or transferred in exchange therefor are registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, the Per Share Price may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate or Uncertificated Share so surrendered or transferred is registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, as applicable, only if, in the case of shares of Company Common Stock represented by Certificates, such Certificate is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer, or in the case of Uncertificated Shares, a proper transfer instruction is presented, and in either case the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or to another Person, as directed by Parent) any transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Price to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or has established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable.

(e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Party will be liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock, for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Distribution of Exchange Fund to the Surviving Corporation. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the date that is one year after the Closing Date, as applicable, will be delivered to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as determined by Parent, and any holders of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, who have not theretofore surrendered or transferred their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such shares of Company Common Stock, for exchange pursuant to this Section 3.9(f) will thereafter look for payment of the Per Share Price without interest thereon, payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares solely to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws), solely as general creditors

30

thereof, for any claim to the Per Share Price (subject to Section 3.12), to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to Section 3.7. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares two years after the Closing Date, or at such earlier date as is immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority, will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders (and their successors, assigns or personal representatives) previously entitled thereto.

3.10 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, (a) all shares of Company Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be converted or cancelled and retired, as applicable, in accordance with Section 3.7 and cease to exist; and (b) each holder of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares theretofore representing any shares of Company Common Stock will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Price, payable therefor in accordance with Section 3.7 (subject to the right to receive, pursuant to Section 3.7(d), the Merger Fractional Share Payout), together with any dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Common Stock payable in accordance with Section 3.13(b), or in the case of Dissenting Company Shares, the rights pursuant to Section 3.7(c). The Per Share Price paid in accordance with the terms of this Article III will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they will (subject to compliance with the exchange procedures of Section 3.9(c)) be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

3.11 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent will issue in exchange therefor, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.7. Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Per Share Price, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such customary amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

3.12 Required Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Depository Agent, the Payment Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Surviving Corporation (and any Subsidiaries thereof) will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any cash amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom pursuant to any Tax Laws. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

3.13 Dividends or Distributions.

(a) No dividends or other distributions with respect to the capital stock of the Surviving Corporation with a record date on or after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificates or Uncertificated Shares.

(b) No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to the surrender of any applicable unsurrendered Certificates or Uncertificated Shares shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Uncertificated Shares with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by Parent to the Payment Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or an Affidavit of Loss in lieu of a Certificate and compliance with Section 3.11, as

31

applicable) or Uncertificated Shares in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate (or an Affidavit of Loss in lieu of a Certificate and compliance with Section 3.11, as applicable) or Uncertificated Shares there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled 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 but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

3.14 Necessary Further Actions. The Parties agree to take all necessary action to cause the Merger to become effective in accordance with this Article III as soon as practicable following the Offer Acceptance Time without a meeting of the Company Stockholders, as provided in Section 251(h) of the DGCL. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges and powers of the Company or Merger Sub, then the directors and officers of the Company and Merger Sub will take all such lawful and necessary action.

(e) Company Board Recommendation Change; Entry into Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time:

(iii) executing and delivering any Contracts and other instruments that are reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger.

75

(b) No Omission to Take Necessary Action. In addition to the foregoing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, neither the Buyer Parties, on the one hand, nor the Company, on the other hand, will take any action, or omit to take any action, which action or omission is intended to or has (or would reasonably be expected to have) the effect of preventing, impairing, delaying or otherwise adversely affecting (i) the consummation of the Merger; or (ii) the ability of such Parties to fully perform their obligations pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no action by the Company taken in compliance with Section 6.3 will be considered a violation of this Section 7.1.

(c) No Consent Obligations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to (i) make any payment of a consent fee, “profit sharing” payment or other consideration (including increased or accelerated payments), the provision of additional security (including a guarantee) or concede anything of value, (ii) amend or otherwise modify any Contract or make any accommodation, commitment or incur any liability or obligation to any third party, or (iii) agree or commit to do any of the foregoing, in each case in connection with obtaining any Third-Party Consent to any Contract; provided, however, that upon the written request of Parent, the Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) use reasonable best efforts to take any such actions so long as the effectiveness of such action is contingent on the Closing and the cost thereof would be borne by Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

7.2 Filings.

(a) Filing Under the HSR Act. The Buyer Parties (and their respective Affiliates, if applicable), on the one hand, and the Company (and its Subsidiaries, if applicable), on the other hand, shall, file with the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the DOJ a Notification and Report Form relating to this Agreement and the Merger as required by the HSR Act within ten Business Days following the date hereof; provided that in the event that the FTC and/or the Antitrust Division of the DOJ is closed or not accepting such filings under the HSR Act (a “Government Closure”), such day shall be extended day-for-day, for each Business Day the Government Closure is in effect. Each of Parent and the Company will use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate and coordinate (and cause its respective Affiliates to cooperate and coordinate) with the other in the making of such filings; (ii) supply the other (or cause the other to be supplied) with any information that may be required in order to make such filings; (iii) supply (or cause the other to be supplied) any additional information that may be required or requested by the FTC or the DOJ with respect to the Offer and the Merger; and (iv) take all action necessary and otherwise consistent with this Section 7.2 to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods pursuant to the HSR Act, including requesting early termination of the HSR Act waiting period. If any Party or Affiliate thereof receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Laws, then such Party will make (or cause to be made), as soon as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other Parties, an appropriate response to such request. At the written request of either Parent or the Company, each of Parent and the Company shall withdraw and as promptly as practicable thereafter refile its Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act in accordance with 16 C.F.R. § 803.12 and any other applicable Laws, provided that such withdrawal and refiling is reasonably expected to enable the Closing to occur as expeditiously as possible, and in any event before the Termination Date.

(b) Efforts. In furtherance and not in limitation of their obligations under this Agreement, the Buyer Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain any clearance, consent, authorization or Order of any Governmental Authority that may be, or become, required under the HSR Act for the consummation of the Merger and to avoid the entry of, or effect the dissolution of, any Order that would otherwise have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the Merger or that would cause the Closing not to occur prior to the Termination Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Buyer Parties shall take, and not refrain from taking, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to take and to not refrain from taking, any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under the HSR Act so as to enable the Parties to expeditiously close the Merger prior to the Termination Date. Without limiting the generality of the

76

foregoing, in fulfilling their obligations under this Section 7.2(b), the Buyer Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, proffer to, or agree: (i) to, sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber; or to hold separate pending such disposition, any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, businesses or interest therein of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates (or to consent thereto); and (ii) to agree to any material changes (including through a licensing arrangement) or restriction on, or other impairment of Parent’s or its Affiliates’ ability to own or operate, any such assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, businesses or interests therein or Parent’s or its Affiliates’ ability to vote, transfer, receive dividends or otherwise exercise full ownership rights with respect to the capital stock of the Company or the Surviving Corporation; provided that Parent can compel the Company to (and to cause its Affiliates to) agree to any such term or condition or take any such actions (or agree to take such actions) so long as the effectiveness of such term or condition or action is conditioned upon the consummation of the Offer and the Merger. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to contest and defend against the entry of, or to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary, or permanent, under any Antitrust Law that would restrain, prevent or delay the Closing on or before the Termination Date, including defending through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in any court with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Cooperation. In connection therewith, and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, Parent shall have the right to direct and control all matters with any Governmental Authority, without limiting any rights or obligations of either party set forth in Section 7.2(a); provided that the Company shall have the right to participate in all such matters and to review in advance and, to the extent reasonably practicable, Parent will consult with the Company on and consider in good faith the views of the Company in connection with, all of the information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental Authority in connection with the Offer or the Merger. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company and the Buyer Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to), subject to any restrictions under applicable Laws, (i) promptly notify the other Parties of, and, if in writing, furnish the others with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the others of the contents of) any material communication received by such Person from a Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and permit the other Parties to review and discuss in advance (and to consider in good faith any comments made by the other parties in relation to) any proposed draft notifications, formal notifications, filing, submission or other written communication (and any analyses, memoranda, white papers, presentations, correspondence or other documents submitted therewith) made in connection with the Merger to a Governmental Authority; (ii) keep the other Parties reasonably informed with respect to the status of any such submissions and filings to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and any material developments, meetings, communications or discussions with any Governmental Authority in respect thereof, including but not limited to (A) the expected timing or receipt of any non-action, action, clearance, consent, approval or waiver, (B) the expiration of any waiting period, (C) the commencement or proposed or threatened commencement of any investigation, litigation or administrative or judicial Action or proceeding under applicable Laws and (D) the nature and status of any objections raised or proposed or threatened to be raised by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger; and (iii) not independently participate in any meeting, hearing, proceeding or material discussions or communication (whether in person, by telephone or otherwise) with or before any Governmental Authority in respect of the Merger without giving the other Parties reasonable prior notice of such meeting or discussions and, unless prohibited by such Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend or participate. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not agree to any Actions, restrictions or conditions with respect to obtaining any consents, registrations, approvals, permits, expirations of waiting periods or authorizations in connection with the Offer or the Merger without the prior written consent of Parent. However, each of the Company and the Buyer Parties and their respective Affiliates, if applicable, may designate any non-public information provided to any Governmental Authority as restricted to “outside counsel” only and any such information shall not be shared with employees, officers or directors or their equivalents of the other Party without approval of the Party providing the non-public information; provided, however, that each of the Company and the Buyer Parties and their respective Affiliates, if applicable, may redact any valuation and related information, or information that is protected by legal privilege, before sharing any

77

information provided to any Governmental Authority with another Party on an “outside counsel” only basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor the Company will (and each of the Company and Parent will cause their Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to) agree to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under any Antitrust Law or enter into or extend a timing or similar agreement with any Governmental Authority, without the prior written consent of the other Parties.

(d) Limitation on Other Transactions. During the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and the Closing, unless the Company otherwise consents in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Parent and Merger Sub will not acquire or agree to acquire by merging or consolidating with, by purchasing a portion of the assets of or equity in, or by acquiring in any other manner, any business of any Person or other business organization or division thereof, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such transaction would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or impede the consummation of the Merger, by (i) imposing any delay in the obtaining of, or increasing the risk of not obtaining, any consent of any Governmental Authority under any Antitrust Laws necessary to consummate the Merger or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) increasing the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an Order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; or (iii) increasing the risk of not being able to remove any such Order on appeal or otherwise.

7.3 Anti-Takeover Laws. The Company and the Company Board (and any committee empowered to take such action, if applicable) will (a) take all actions within their power to ensure that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to the Merger; and (b) if any Takeover Statute becomes or is deemed applicable to the Merger, take all action within their power to ensure that the Merger may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to eliminate or minimize or make inapplicable the effect of such statute or regulation on the Merger.

7.4 Access. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and the Closing, the Company will (and will cause its Subsidiaries to) afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice, to the properties, offices and other facilities, Contracts, books and records and personnel of the Company Group, except that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that, (a) any applicable Law or regulation requires the Company Group to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information; (b) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (c) access to a Contract to which the Company Group is a party or otherwise bound would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give any Person the right to terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; (d) access would result in the disclosure of any material trade secrets of Persons in a manner that would result in any such trade secrets no longer being protected as such under applicable Law following such disclosure; or (e) such documents or information are reasonably pertinent to any adverse Legal Proceeding between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Subject to Section 7.19, nothing in this Section 7.4 will be construed to require the Company Group or any of its Representatives to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.4 will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably and materially interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company Group or create a material risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company Group. Any access to the properties of the Company Group will be subject to the Company’s reasonable security measures and insurance requirements and will not include the right to perform invasive testing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may satisfy its obligations set forth above by electronic means if physical access is not permitted under applicable Law. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement will apply to any information obtained by Parent or any of its Representatives in connection with any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 7.4, other than any information that has been made, is or becomes available

78

to Parent or any of its Representatives by or from the Company or any of its Representatives in the ordinary course of their ongoing business arrangements consistent with past practice, including in connection with Parent’s preparation of its consolidated financial statements or its public reporting obligations. All requests for access pursuant to this Section 7.4 must be directed to the General Counsel of the Company, or another person designated by the Company. In the event that the Company objects to any request submitted pursuant to this Section 7.4 on the basis of one or more of the matters set forth in clauses (a) to (e) of this Section 7.4, it must do so by providing Parent, in reasonable detail, the nature of what is being prevented and/or withheld and the reasons therefor, and prior to preventing such access or withholding such information or documents from Parent and its Representatives, the Company shall cooperate with Parent to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable substitute access or disclosure, including through the use of reasonable best efforts to take such actions and implement appropriate and mutually agreeable measures to as promptly as practicable permit such access and the furnishing of such information and documents in a manner to remove the basis for the objection, including by arrangement of appropriate “counsel-to-counsel” disclosure, clean room procedures, redaction and other customary procedures, entry into a customary joint defense agreement and, with respect to the contractual termination or acceleration right contemplated by clause (c) of this Section 7.4, obtaining a waiver with respect to or consent under such contractual termination or acceleration right.

7.5 Section 16(b) Exemption. The Company and the Company Board (or duly formed committees thereof consisting of non-employee directors (as such term is defined for the purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act)) will, prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, take all actions reasonably necessary or advisable to cause the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and any dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, by each individual who is a director or officer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of the Company to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

7.6 14d-10 Matters. Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the compensation committee of the Company Board shall (a) approve as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act, each plan, program, agreement or arrangement between Parent, the Company or their respective Affiliates and any of the current or former officers, directors or employees of the Company that are entered into or established on or before the date hereof (including the terms of Section 3.8, 7.7 and 7.8) or are entered into or established after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Offer Acceptance Time pursuant to which compensation is paid to such officer, director or employee and (b) take all steps reasonably necessary to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor under Rule 14d-10(d) under the Exchange Act with respect to each such plan, program, agreement or arrangement.

7.7 Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnified Persons. The Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of the Company Group pursuant to any indemnification agreements between a member of the Company Group and any of its current or former directors or officers (and any person who becomes a director or officer of a member of the Company Group prior to the Effective Time) (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) that are made available to Parent for any acts or omissions by such Indemnified Persons occurring prior to the Effective Time. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation from liabilities and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Charter, the Bylaws and the other similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date hereof. During such six-year period, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any adverse manner except as required by applicable Law.

79

(b) Indemnification Obligation. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 7.7(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law and the Charter, the Bylaws and the other similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date hereof, or pursuant to any indemnification agreements with the Company and any of its Subsidiaries in effect on the date hereof, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, to (i) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission, in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company Group or its Affiliates to the extent that such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to or at the Effective Time; and (ii) the Merger, as well as any actions taken by the Company or the Buyer Parties with respect thereto, except that if, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding, (A) the Surviving Corporation will have the right to control the defense thereof after the Effective Time; and (B) the Surviving Corporation will advance all fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of any counsel) as incurred by an Indemnified Person in the defense of such Legal Proceeding promptly after receipt by Parent or the Surviving Corporation of a written request for such advancement to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law and the Charter, the Bylaws and the other similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as applicable, as of the date hereof; provided that any Person to whom expenses are so advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication that such Person is not entitled to such advanced expenses.

(c) D&O Insurance. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, and if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time to, purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect on the date hereof (“D&O Insurance”) from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier on the date hereof on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are no less favorable than those of the D&O Insurance so long as the aggregate cost for such “tail” policy does not exceed 300% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such 300% amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”). Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain such “tail” policies in full force and effect and to continue to honor the obligations thereunder. If the Company or the Surviving Corporation fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the D&O Insurance in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are equivalent to those of the D&O Insurance. In satisfying its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.7(c), the Surviving Corporation will not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of the Maximum Annual Premium. If the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Annual Premium, then the Surviving Corporation will be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier on the date hereof.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns will (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the

80

Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns will assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation set forth in this Section 7.7.

(e) No Impairment. The obligations set forth in this Section 7.7 may not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person. Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.7, with full rights of enforcement as if such person were a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 7.7(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) pursuant to this Section 7.7 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have pursuant to (i) the Charter and the Bylaws; (ii) the similar organizational documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company; (iii) any and all indemnification agreements entered into with the Company Group; or (iv) applicable Law (whether at Law or in equity). All rights to indemnification, exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto now existing in favor of any Indemnified Person (whether asserted or claimed prior to, at, or after the Effective Time) as provided in the Charter or Bylaws or comparable governing documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Contract or otherwise between such Indemnified Person and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect (and shall be so maintained) and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such Indemnified Person.

(f) Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.7 will be joint and several.

(g) Other Claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company Group for any of its directors or officers, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.7 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or agreements.

7.8 Employee Matters.

(a) Acknowledgement. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that a “change in control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of each of the Employee Plans, as applicable, will occur as of the Effective Time.

(b) Existing Arrangements. From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to) honor all of the Employee Plans in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing will prohibit the Surviving Corporation from in any way amending, modifying or terminating any such Employee Plans in accordance with their terms or if otherwise permitted pursuant to applicable Law.

(c) Employment; Benefits. As of the Closing, the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries will continue to employ the employees of the Company Group as of the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time until the first anniversary of the Effective Time (or, if earlier, the termination date of an applicable Continuing Employee), the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) provide each Continuing Employee with compensation and benefits that are substantially comparable to those provided by Parent or its Affiliates to similarly-situated employees of the Parent or its Affiliates (excluding defined benefit pension plans and stock-based compensation); provided that to the extent any Continuing Employee is provided with compensation and benefits that are substantially the same as those provided to such Continuing Employee by the Company immediately prior the Closing Date, such

81

compensation and benefits will be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.8 shall obligate the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to continue the employment of any Continuing Employee for any specific period.

(d) New Plans. To the extent that a benefit plan of Parent is made available to any Continuing Employee at or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries will (and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company Group prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and for purposes of future vacation accrual and determining severance amounts, except that (i) such service need not be credited to the extent that it would result in duplication of coverage or benefits, (ii) such service shall only be credited to the same extent and for the same purpose as such service was credited under an analogous Employee Plan, and (iii) no service shall be required to be credited under any plan that provides for defined benefit pension, or post-employment or retiree welfare benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Surviving Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (i) each Continuing Employee will be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all employee benefit plans sponsored by the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to the extent that coverage pursuant to any such plans (the “New Plan”) replaces coverage previously provided under a comparable Employee Plan in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, the “Old Plans”); and (ii) during the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs, for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, (x) the Surviving Corporation will cause all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, and (y) the Surviving Corporation will cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year ending on the Closing Date to be given full credit pursuant to such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance, co-pay, offsets and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(e) Company 401(k) Plan. Prior to the Effective Time, if requested by Parent in writing no later than ten (10) days prior to the Effective Time, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the applicable plan or arrangement, the Company shall cause the Company’s United States tax-qualified defined contribution plan (the “Company 401(k) Plan”) to be terminated effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time; provided, that the Company’s obligation to comply with such request shall be conditioned on Parent first providing the Company with confirmation that Continuing Employees will be eligible to participate a in tax-qualified defined contribution plan of Parent (a “Parent Plan”) immediately following the Effective Time and confirmation that employee loan balances will be eligible for rollover into such Parent Plan.

(c) In the event all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (including the flex provisions (if any)) (other than as a result of the Company’s breach of any provision of this Agreement or failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Annex 1), then Parent and its Affiliates shall (i) promptly notify the Company thereof and the reasons therefor, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing from the same or alternative Debt Financing Entities on terms and conditions, taken as a whole, no less favorable to Parent than the Financing Conditions, not involving any conditions that would constitute an Adverse Effect on Financing (as defined below) as compared to those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter delivered to the Company on the date hereof, that, when taken together with the portion of the Debt Financing that remains available and any cash on hand, available lines of credit (including under Borrower’s existing revolving credit and securitization facilities) and other sources of immediately available funds, is at least equal to the Required Amount, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain, and when obtained, provide the Company with a true and complete copy of, a new financing commitment that provides for such alternative financing; provided that any provisions set forth in such new financing commitment relating to fees, pricing terms, “market flex” provisions (if any) and other terms that are customarily redacted (including any dates related thereto) may be redacted, so long as such redaction does not extend to any terms that would reasonably be expected to reduce the aggregate principal amount of such alternative financing to be funded on the Closing Date or impose additional conditions precedent to the funding of such alternative financing on the Closing Date.

(d) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX, without the prior written consent of the Company, Parent and its Affiliates shall not amend, modify, supplement, restate, assign, substitute or replace the Debt Commitment Letter or any Debt Financing Document if such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, assignment, substitution or replacement would (A) impose additional conditions precedent or expand upon the conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing, (B) reduce the amount of the Debt Financing or the net cash proceeds available from the Debt Financing to an amount that is less than the Required Amount (after taking into account any cash on hand, available lines of credit (including under Borrower’s existing revolving credit and securitization facilities) and other sources of immediately available funds), (C) prevent or materially delay or make materially less likely the funding of the Debt Financing (or the satisfaction of the Financing Conditions) on the Closing Date or materially impair, delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger, (D) materially adversely affect Parent’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger or (E) materially adversely impact the ability of Parent or any of its Affiliates’ to enforce their respective rights against the Debt Financing Sources or any of the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements with respect thereto (clauses (A) through (E), each an “Adverse Effect on Financing”); provided that Parent may, without the prior written consent of the Company, amend, modify, supplement, restate, assign, substitute or replace the Debt Commitment Letter, including (1) to add and appoint additional arrangers,

86

bookrunners, underwriters, agents, lenders and similar Debt Financing Entities that have not executed the Debt Financing Documents as in effect on the date hereof and, in connection therewith, amend the economic and other arrangements with respect to such appointments, (2) modify pricing, (3) terminate or reduce any commitments under the Debt Financing in order to obtain alternative sources of debt financing in lieu of all or a portion of the Debt Financing and/or (4) increase the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing, in each case, so long as such amendments would not be reasonably expected to result in an Adverse Effect on Financing. Upon request of the Company, Parent shall keep the Company informed in reasonable detail of the status of Parent’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing. Any alternative, substitute or replacement debt financing obtained by Parent in accordance with this paragraph and the previous paragraph is the “Alternative Financing.” For purposes of this Agreement, references to “Debt Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by any Alternative Financing and references to “Debt Commitment Letter”, “Debt Fee Letters”, “Debt Financing Documents”, “Debt Financing Entities”, “Debt Financing Sources”, or “Financing” shall include the documents (or commitments or financing sources, as applicable) in connection with any Alternative Financing to the extent permitted by this Section 7.18, and such Alternative Financing shall be required to comply with the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as the Debt Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall Parent or its Affiliates be required to pay any fees or any interest rates applicable to the Alternative Financing in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof (including the market flex provisions (if any)) or agree to any term (including any market flex term (if any)) less favorable (taken as a whole) to Parent than such term contained in the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof (including the market flex provisions (if any)).

9.2 Manner and Notice of Termination; Effect of Termination.

(a) Manner of Termination. The Party terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 (other than pursuant to Section 9.1(a)) must deliver prompt written notice thereof to the other Parties setting forth in reasonable detail the provision of Section 9.1 pursuant to which this Agreement is being terminated.

(b) Effect of Termination. Any proper and valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 will be effective immediately upon the delivery of written notice by the terminating Party to the other Parties. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement will be of no further force or effect without liability of any Party (or any partner, member, manager, stockholder, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, agent or other representative of such Party) to the other Parties, as applicable, except that the Confidentiality Agreement, this Section 9.2, Section 9.3 and Article X will each survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will relieve any Party from any liability for any Willful and Material Breach of this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, no termination of this Agreement will affect the rights or obligations of any Party pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement, which rights, obligations and agreements will survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms.

9.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) General. Except as set forth in this Section 9.3 or as otherwise expressly provided herein, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Merger will be paid by the Party incurring such

92

fees and expenses whether or not the Merger is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent or the Surviving Corporation will be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Payment Agent.

(b) Company Payments.

(i) If (A) this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b), Section 9.1(d), or Section 9.1(e)(i), (B) following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to such termination of this Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal for an Acquisition Transaction has been publicly announced or publicly disclosed and not withdrawn or otherwise abandoned prior to termination of this Agreement; and (C) within 12 months following such termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b), Section 9.1(d), or Section 9.1(e)(i), as applicable, either such Acquisition Transaction is consummated or the Company enters into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction which is ultimately consummated, then the Company will concurrently with the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or as directed by Parent) an amount equal to $144,842,468 (the “Company Termination Fee”). For purposes of this Section 9.3(b)(i), all references to “20%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(ii) If this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(e)(ii), then the Company must promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) following such termination pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or as directed by Parent) the Company Termination Fee.

(iii) If this Agreement is validly terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(f)(ii), then the Company must prior to or concurrently with such termination pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or as directed by Parent) the Company Termination Fee.

(iv) If this Agreement is validly terminated other than pursuant to Section 9.1(f)(i), then the Company must pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or as directed by Parent) a termination fee, in return for the payment by Parent to URI of the URI Agreement Termination Fee, in an amount equal to the URI Agreement Termination Fee (the “URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund”), (A) in the case of a termination by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(f)(ii), prior to or concurrently with such termination, and (B) in all other termination scenarios, within two Business Days following such termination;

(v) Single Payment Only; Sole Recourse. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) in no event will the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events, and (ii) in no event will the Company be required to pay the URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund on more than one occasion, whether or not the URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events. Subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 9.2(b), in the event the Company Termination Fee described in this Section 9.3 is due and payable to Parent and actually is paid to Parent, such Company Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Parent or Merger Sub and, except for the Company’s separate obligation to pay the URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund in accordance with Section 9.3(b)(iv), shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and Merger Sub against the Company and its current, former or future stockholders and Representatives for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated, and none of the Company and its current, former or future stockholders or Representatives shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than the Company’s separate obligation to pay the URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund in accordance with Section 9.3(b)(iv).

(c) Payments; Default. The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of this Agreement and the Merger, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter

93

into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 9.3(b) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a Legal Proceeding that results in a judgment against the Company for the amount set forth in Section 9.3(b) or any portion thereof, the Company will pay to Parent (or as directed by Parent) its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such Legal Proceeding, together with interest on such amount or portion thereof at the annual rate of 5% plus the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date that such payment or portion thereof was required to be made through the date that such payment or portion thereof was actually received, or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by applicable Law. All payments under this Section 9.3 shall be made by the Company to Parent (or as directed by Parent) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent in writing to the Company.

(d) Acknowledgement Regarding Specific Performance. Notwithstanding the availability of monetary damages, it is agreed that the Buyer Parties and the Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 10.8(b), except that, although the Buyer Parties and the Company, in their respective sole discretion, may determine their choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 10.8(b), under no circumstances will the Buyer Parties or the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and any monetary damages, including, with respect to the Buyer Parties, the Company Termination Fee or the URI Agreement Termination Fee Refund.

9.4 Amendment. Subject to applicable Law and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Buyer Parties and the Company; provided that following the Offer Acceptance Time, this Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified in any manner that causes the Per Share Price to differ from the Offer Price. This Section 9.4 is subject to Section 10.15.

9.5 Extension; Waiver. At any time and from time to time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, any Party may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, as applicable; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party. Any delay in exercising any right pursuant to this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right. This Section 9.5 is subject to Section 10.15.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any Party will relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any assignment not permitted by this Section 10.3 shall be null and void ab initio.

10.4 Confidentiality. The Buyer Parties and the Company hereby acknowledge that Parent’s wholly owned Subsidiary and the Company have executed that certain confidentiality agreement dated as of January 24, 2025 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), as amended by that certain First Amendment, dated as of February 12, 2025, that will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Each of the Buyer Parties and their respective Representatives will hold and treat all documents and information concerning the Company Group furnished or made available to the Buyer Parties or their respective Representatives in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. By executing this Agreement, each of the Buyer Parties agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement as if they were parties thereto.

10.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement will (a) not be superseded; (b) survive any termination of this Agreement; and (c) continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

10.6 Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Section 7.6 and this Section 10.6, the Parties agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the other Parties in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to, and will not, confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by Section 7.6; (b) if a court of competent jurisdiction has declined to grant specific performance and has instead granted an award of damages, then the Company may enforce such award; (c) if any of the Buyer Parties wrongfully terminate or willfully breach this Agreement, then, following the termination of this Agreement, the Company may seek damages and other relief; and (d) from and after the Closing, the rights of the Company Stockholders and holders of Company Equity Awards, to receive the consideration set forth in Article III.

The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

96

10.8 Remedies.

(a) Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Although the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance and monetary damages, under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and monetary damages (including any monetary damages in lieu of specific performance).

(b) Specific Performance.

(i) 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 the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, (A) the Parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof; and (B) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of this Agreement and the Merger and without that right, neither the Company nor the Buyer Parties would have entered into this Agreement.

(ii) Each of the Parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or any other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each Party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

10.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware.

10.10 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process (whether inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts) in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger, for and on behalf of itself or any of its properties or assets, in accordance with Section 10.2 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law, and nothing in this Section 10.10 will affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law; (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits itself and its properties and assets in any Legal Proceeding to the exclusive general jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware (and any appellate court therefrom) or, if any federal court within the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Complex Commercial Division) (and any appellate court therefrom)) (the “Chosen Courts”) in the event that any claim, Action or proceeding between the Parties (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arises out of or relates to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) agrees

97

that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such courts; (iv) agrees that any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be brought, tried and determined only in the Chosen Courts; (v) expressly waives any objection or claim that it may now or hereafter have to the lack of personal jurisdiction or improper venue of any such Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts or that such Legal Proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; and (vi) agrees that it will not bring any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each of the Buyer Parties and the Company agrees that a final judgment in any Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts will be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

10.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS CONDUCT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MERGER. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (C) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.11.

10.12 Company Disclosure Letter and Parent Disclosure Letter References. The Parties agree that each of the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter has been arranged for purposes of convenience in separately numbered sections corresponding to the sections of this Agreement; provided, however, any matter disclosed in any section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter (as applicable) will be deemed to be disclosed with respect to each other section or subsection of this Agreement to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that it is applicable to such other section or subsection of this Agreement. The information contained in this Agreement, in the Company Disclosure Letter, in the Parent Disclosure Letter and exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any Party to any third party of any matter whatsoever, including any violation of Law or breach of Contract.

10.13 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed (including by electronic signature) by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party may raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

10.14 No Limitation. It is the intention of the Parties that, to the extent possible, unless provisions are mutually exclusive and effect cannot be given to both or all such provisions, the representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions in this Agreement will be construed to be cumulative and that each

98

representation, warranty, covenant and closing condition in this Agreement will be given full, separate and independent effect and nothing set forth in any provision herein will in any way be deemed to limit the scope, applicability or effect of any other provision hereof.

10.15 Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, hereby (a) agrees that the Debt Financing Sources will not have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or granted by statute or otherwise) for any claims, causes of Action, obligations or any related losses, costs or expenses arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or based on, in respect of or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation, execution, performance or breach, in each case, to the Company or any of its Affiliates, (b) agrees that it will not bring or support any Legal Proceeding, whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Debt Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with any Debt Financing (including the Debt Commitment Letter and Debt Fee Letters) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof) and irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such Legal Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (c) agrees that any such Legal Proceeding will be governed by the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of another state), (d) agrees that service of process upon such Person in any such Legal Proceeding will be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 10.2, (e) irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Legal Proceeding in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof), (f) KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT AGAINST ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCES IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, ANY DEBT FINANCING OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SERVICES THEREUNDER, (g) agrees in no event will any Debt Financing Source be liable to the Company or its Subsidiaries for consequential, special, exemplary, punitive or indirect damages (including any loss of profits, business, or anticipated savings), or damages of a tortious nature in connection with any Debt Financing, and (h) agrees that the Debt Financing Sources are express third party beneficiaries of this Section 10.15, and the Debt Financing Sources may enforce such rights under such provisions, and such provisions (and any definitions used in such provisions or any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provisions would materially modify and abrogate the substance of this Section 10.15) shall not be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in any way adverse to any Debt Financing Source without the prior written consent of each related Debt Financing Entity. This Section 10.15 will not limit the rights of the parties to any Debt Financing under any definitive agreement in respect of such Debt Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any modification, waiver or termination of the definition of “Debt Financing Entities” (or any other provision of this

99

Agreement to the extent such modification, waiver or termination would modify the substance of such Article, Sections or definition) that is adverse to any Debt Financing Entity will not be effective without the prior written consent of the applicable Debt Financing Entity.

ANNEX 1

CONDITIONS TO THE OFFER

The capitalized terms used in this Annex 1 shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger to which this Annex 1 is attached (the “Agreement”) unless specifically defined in this Annex 1. The obligation of Merger Sub to accept for purchase, and pay for, shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (h) below. Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer or the Agreement to the contrary, Merger Sub shall not be required to accept for purchase or (subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act) pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, or (subject to any such rules and regulations) the payment for, any tendered shares of Company Common Stock, and, to the extent permitted by the Agreement, may terminate the Offer: (i) upon termination of the Agreement; and (ii) at any scheduled Expiration Date (subject to any extensions of the Offer pursuant to Section 2.1(c)), if: (A) the Minimum Condition, the Termination Condition and conditions set forth in clause (e) shall not be satisfied by one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date; or (B) any of the additional conditions set forth below shall not be satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) in writing by Parent:

(a) Minimum Condition. There shall have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn shares of Company Common Stock that, considered together with all other shares of Company Common Stock (if any) beneficially owned by Parent and its Affiliates, represent at least one share more than 50% of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the consummation of the Offer at the time of the expiration of the Offer (the “Minimum Condition”); provided, however, that for purposes of determining whether the Minimum Condition has been satisfied, the Parties shall exclude shares of Company Common Stock tendered in the Offer pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received” (as such term is defined in Section 251(h)(6)(f) of the DGCL).

(iv) The representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.11(c) (Absence of Certain Changes) shall be true and correct in all respects (without disregarding such Company Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications) as of the Offer Acceptance Time as if made on and as of the Offer Acceptance Time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date).
