ARTICLE 2

The Merger

Section 2.01.    The Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall merge with and into the Company in accordance with Delaware Law, whereupon, the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

(a)    Subject to the provisions of Article 9, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place by means of the exchange of signatures electronically at 8:00 a.m. Eastern time, on the date that is three (3) Business Days after the date the conditions set forth in Article 9 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at or immediately prior to the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permissible, waiver of those conditions at the Closing, and other than the conditions set forth in Section 9.01(d), which shall be satisfied immediately prior to or concurrently with the Closing, as applicable) have been satisfied or, to the extent permissible, waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefit of such conditions, or at such other time or on such other date as Parent and the Company may mutually agree (the “Closing Date”).

(b)    As promptly as practicable on the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall cause a certificate of merger meeting the requirements of Section 251 of Delaware Law (the “Certificate of Merger”) relating to the Merger to be properly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the terms and conditions of Delaware Law and in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to both Parent and the Company. The Merger shall become effective at the time of filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with Delaware Law, or at such later time that the parties hereto shall have agreed and designated in the Certificate of Merger as the effective time of the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

(c)    The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall vest in the Company as the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company as the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, all as provided under Delaware Law.

Section 2.02.    Treatment of Shares and Units.

(a)    At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Subsidiary, the holders of any capital stock of the Company or Merger Subsidiary, or any other Person:

(i)    except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(a)(ii) or Section 2.04, each share of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including each share of Class A Common Stock issued upon (A) the exchange of Paired Interests in accordance with the Exchange Agreement and the Voting and Support Agreements and (B) the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the Voting and Support Agreement executed by the MDP Entities) shall be converted into the right to receive $34.00 in cash, without interest (such amount per share, the “Merger Consideration”);

(ii)    each share of Company Stock owned by the Company as treasury stock or otherwise or owned by Parent or Merger Subsidiary, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be canceled and

12

shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto, and any shares of Company Stock that are owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (other than Merger Subsidiary) or of the Company (in each case, other than any such shares held in a fiduciary, representative or other capacity on behalf of third parties) (any such shares, collectively “Owned Company Shares”), immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into such number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation such that the ownership percentage of any such Person in the Surviving Corporation shall equal the ownership percentage such Person’s shares represent in the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(iii)    each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Merger Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) newly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of Merger Subsidiary common stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(b)    Within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall send a written notice complying with the requirements of Section 2.04(c) of the Exchange Agreement to each Holder. The Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review the written notice prior to distribution thereof to each Holder and shall consider Parent’s comments thereto in good faith. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall require each Holder, other than any Holders that have exchanged their Paired Interests prior to the Closing, to effect an exchange of their Paired Interests in accordance with Section 2.04(b) of the Exchange Agreement such that all such Paired Interests that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time as follows: (i) pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on the Closing Date, each Paired Interest will be exchanged for one share of Class A Common Stock (the “Paired Interest Exchange”) which will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i), (ii) each share of Class D Common Stock shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist, at the Effective Time and no payment shall be made with respect thereto, and (iii) each Common Unit corresponding to such Paired Interest shall be deemed transferred from the Holder to the Company and the Company shall, or shall cause OpCo LLC to, cause such transfer to be registered in the books and records of the OpCo LLC.

(c)    If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Stock are changed into a different number, type or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted, without duplication, to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such change. Nothing in this Section 2.02(c) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.03.    Surrender and Payment.

(a)    Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint an agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”) for the purpose of paying the Merger Consideration to each holder of shares of Class A Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (other than holders of Dissenting Shares or the Owned Company Shares) in respect of (i) certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Certificates”) or (ii) uncertificated shares of Class A Common Stock represented in book entry, including through Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depository Trust Company (the “Uncertificated Shares”). Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall send, or shall cause the Paying Agent to send, to each holder of record of shares of Class A Common Stock at the Effective Time a letter of transmittal (in a form that was reasonably acceptable to

13

the Company prior to the Effective Time) and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Paying Agent) for use in such exchange.

(b)    Each holder of shares of Class A Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (which shall not include Dissenting Shares or the Owned Company Shares) shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Paying Agent of a Certificate, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal (or affidavit in lieu thereof pursuant to Section 2.07), or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share, and Certificates so surrendered or Uncertificated Shares so transferred shall be canceled. Subject to Section 2.02(a)(i) and Section 2.04, until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each such Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon the surrender of such Class A Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.03(b). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Class A Common Stock, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the Merger Consideration (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall, pending its disbursement to the holders of Class A Common Stock, be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation in (i) short-term direct obligations of the United States of America, (ii) short-term obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged to provide for the payment of principal and interest, (iii) short-term commercial paper rated the highest quality by either Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services, or (iv) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available); provided that no such investment or losses shall affect the amounts payable to such holders of Class A Common Stock and Parent shall promptly replace or cause to be replaced any funds deposited with the Paying Agent that are lost through any investment, or otherwise deposit funds to the Payment Fund (including upon such time as Dissenting Shares lose their status as such) so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient for the Paying Agent to pay the Merger Consideration. Earnings from investments, subject to the immediately preceding proviso, shall be paid to and shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and the Surviving Corporation. Except as contemplated by Section 2.03(e) hereof, the Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and transfer of Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 2.03(b).

(c)    If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Paying Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d)    After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article 2.

(e)    Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of

14

Class A Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.03 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration, in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Stock immediately prior to such time when such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall become, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 2.04.    Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Class A Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by stockholders who have properly demanded appraisal for such shares in accordance with Section 262 of Delaware Law and, as of the Effective Time, have complied in all respects with Section 262 of Delaware Law with respect to such shares and shall not have waived, effectively withdrawn or lost such Person’s rights to appraisal under Delaware Law with respect to such shares (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.02. Such stockholders instead shall only be entitled to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares held by them in accordance with the provisions of, and as provided by, Section 262 of Delaware Law. Each Dissenting Share held by stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have waived, withdrawn, or otherwise lost the right to appraisal of such shares under Section 262 of Delaware Law shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon surrender in the manner provided in Section 2.03. The Company shall (a) give Parent prompt written notice of any demand for appraisal or payment for shares of Class A Common Stock, any withdrawals of such demands received by the Company prior to the Effective Time and any other instrument served pursuant to Delaware Law and received by the Company relating to Section 262 of Delaware Law, (b) give Parent the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands, and (c) not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle or otherwise negotiate, any such demands, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or otherwise to comply with the provisions under Section 262 of Delaware Law, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

Section 2.05.    Company Equity Awards.

(a)    Company RSU Awards. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action required on the part of the holder of such Company RSU Award, be converted into a restricted stock unit award (a “Parent RSU Award”) in respect of that number of shares of the common stock of Parent, no par value (“Parent Common Stock”), (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio. Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.05(a), each Parent RSU Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and treatment upon termination terms) as applied to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b)    Company PSU Awards: Earnings Per Share and Revenue Growth. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company PSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which remains subject to vesting based on adjusted earnings per share and adjusted revenue growth shall, automatically and without any action required on the part of the holder of such Company PSU Award, be converted into a Parent RSU Award in respect of that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company PSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio. For purposes of this Section 2.05(b), the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to a Company PSU Award subject to vesting based on adjusted earnings per share and adjusted revenue growth shall be based on deemed achievement of the performance metrics as follows: (A) with respect to any completed Performance Year, as defined in the

15

Company PSU Award agreement, based on actual achievement of the performance goals for such Performance Year, with respect to one third of the target number of Company PSU Awards, (B) with respect to any partially completed Performance Year, based on the greater of (1) target performance and (2) actual performance for such partially completed Performance Year through the Effective Time, but extrapolated through to the end of the Performance Year on the assumption that performance will continue at the same rate through to the end of the Performance Year, with respect to one third of the target number of Company PSU Awards, and (C) for any Performance Year that has not commenced, based on target performance with respect to one third of the target number of Company PSU Awards. Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.05(b), each such Parent RSU Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and treatment upon termination terms) as applied to the corresponding Company PSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c)    Company PSU Awards: Stock Price Performance. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company PSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which remains subject to vesting based on the price per share of the Class A Common Stock shall, automatically and without any action required on the part of the holder of such Company PSU Award, be converted into a Parent RSU Award in respect of that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company PSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio. For purposes of this Section 2.05(c), the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to a Company PSU Award subject to vesting based on the price per share of the Class A Common Stock shall be based on deemed achievement of the performance metrics at the greater of actual or target performance, with actual performance determined by reference to the Merger Consideration. Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.05(c), each such Parent RSU Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and treatment upon termination terms) as applied to the corresponding Company PSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d)    Company Option Awards.

(i)    At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Option Award that is outstanding, unvested and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action required on the part of the holder of such Company Option Award, be converted into an option (a “Parent Option Award”) to purchase (i) that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company Option Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio, (ii) at an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of Class A Common Stock of such Company Option Award immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(v)(4)(D). Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.05(d), each such Parent Option Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting, exercisability and treatment upon termination terms) as applied to the corresponding Company Option Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(ii)    At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Option Award with a per share exercise price that is less than the Merger Consideration that is outstanding, vested and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action required on the part of the holder of such Company Option Award, be cancelled in exchange for cash in an amount equal to (i) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which such Company Option Award is exercisable, multiplied by (ii) the excess of the Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price of such Company Option Award, without interest and less applicable Tax withholding. At the Effective Time, each Company Option Award with a per share exercise price that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration that is outstanding, vested and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled without consideration and will be of no further force and effect.

16

(e)    Adjustments and Payments. As of the Effective Time, the number and kind of shares available for issuance under each Company Stock Plan shall be adjusted, in accordance with the provisions of the applicable plan, to reflect the conversion of the shares available for issuance from Class A Common Stock into Parent Common Stock. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay the consideration, if any, payable pursuant to Section 2.05(d)(ii) to holders of vested Company Option Awards who are current or former employees of the Company or any Subsidiary through its payroll at or reasonably promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than the second payroll date of Parent after the Effective Time).

(f)    Resolutions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering any Company Stock Plan) shall adopt such resolutions or take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting and take any actions that are necessary or appropriate to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05. The Company shall provide that, following the Effective Time, no holder of any Company RSU Award, Company PSU Award, or Company Option Award shall have the right to acquire any voting or equity securities or interest in the Company or the Surviving Corporation in respect thereof.

(g)    Parent Actions. Parent shall take all corporate actions that are necessary for the conversion and assumption of the Company Equity Awards pursuant to this Section 2.05, including the reservation, issuance and listing of Parent Common Stock as necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock underlying the applicable converted Company Equity Awards, and shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such applicable assumed Company Equity Awards remain outstanding.

Section 2.06.    Withholding Rights. Each of the Paying Agent, Merger Subsidiary, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article 2 such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. Any amounts deducted or withheld and paid over or remitted to the appropriate Taxing Authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Section 2.07.    Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Class A Common Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article 2.

ARTICLE 3

Section 3.01.    Certificate of Incorporation.

(i) through (iii) only if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Law.

(c)    In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 6.03(b), the Company Board shall not take any of the actions referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 6.03(b), other than interacting with the Person who made such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives solely to clarify the terms and conditions thereof and notify such Person that the provisions of this Section 6.03 prohibit discussions or negotiations, unless the Company shall have first delivered to Parent written notice advising Parent that the Company intends to take such action. In addition, the Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than forty-eight (48) hours) after receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of (i) any Inquiry or Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement or (ii) any written request made after the date of this Agreement for information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Third Party in connection with or that, to the knowledge of the Company or any member of the Company Board, is considering making, or is reasonably likely to make after the date hereof, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice shall be provided in writing and shall identify the relevant Third Party and, shall provide to the extent known or available, a summary of the material terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal or Inquiry (including any material changes or proposed changes thereto), any written requests made (or, if oral, the nature of the information requested) pursuant to such Acquisition Proposal or Inquiry, and unredacted copies of all proposals or offers, including proposed agreements received by the Company relating to such Acquisition Proposal or Inquiry; provided, that with respect to any debt commitment letter delivered in connection herewith, applicable fee letters may be provided in the same redacted form if such letters are received by the Company in such redacted form. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably prompt and timely basis, of the status and details of any such Acquisition Proposal or Inquiry (including any material changes or proposed changes thereto). Without limiting the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall provide Parent any nonpublic information or data that is furnished or provided to any Person or its Representatives that was not previously made available to Parent or Merger Subsidiary prior to or promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) following the time it is provided to such Person or its Representatives.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may, in response to an Intervening Event, make an Adverse Recommendation Change (only of the type contemplated by clauses (A), (B) and (E) of Section 6.03(a)(iii)), if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel that the failure of the Company Board to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board shall not be entitled to effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change until (i) the Company shall have given Parent four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change and specifying the reasons therefor, which notice shall include a description of the applicable Intervening Event (it being understood that this notice itself shall not constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change for purposes of this Agreement unless an Adverse Recommendation Change has otherwise occurred), (ii) during the four (4) Business Day period following the date on which such notice is sent, the Company shall and shall cause its Representatives to, if requested by Parent, negotiate in good faith with Parent regarding any proposal by Parent to amend, modify or make adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (iii) following the end of such four (4) Business Day period, the Company Board, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors and taking into account any amendments, modifications or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement proposed in a written offer by Parent, determines in good faith that the failure of the Company Board to make such an Adverse Recommendation Change still would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, it being understood that any material change to the facts and circumstances giving rise to an Intervening Event shall require a new notice to Parent as provided above, but the notice and negotiation period shall be two (2) Business Days (as opposed to four (4) Business Days). After delivery of any written notice pursuant to this Section 6.03(d) and until the

44

termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours of any material development) keep Parent informed of all material developments affecting any such Intervening Event or Adverse Recommendation Change. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into any Company Acquisition Agreement unless this Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with Section 10.01(d)(i).

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company Board shall not make an Adverse Recommendation Change and/or effect a termination of this Agreement involving or relating to a Superior Proposal unless the Company has complied with this Section 6.03 and receives an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement which has not resulted from a material breach of this Section 6.03, and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal and that the failure of the Company Board to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, and: (i) the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing four (4) Business Days before making an Adverse Recommendation Change and/or effecting a termination of this Agreement to enter into a definitive merger or purchase agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal (it being understood that this notice in and of itself shall not constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change for purposes of this Agreement unless an Adverse Recommendation Change has otherwise occurred), that the Company intends to take such action, which notice attaches an unredacted copy of the most current version of any proposed Company Acquisition Agreement and other relevant agreements (provided, that with respect to any debt commitment letter delivered in connection herewith, applicable fee letters may be provided in the same redacted form if such letters are received by the Company in such redacted form) and a reasonably detailed summary of all material terms of such Superior Proposal and the identity of the Third Party making such Superior Proposal, (ii) if requested by Parent, during such four (4) Business Day period, the Company and its Representatives have discussed and negotiated in good faith with Parent regarding any proposal by Parent to amend, modify or make adjustments to the terms of this Agreement in a written offer by Parent in response to such Superior Proposal and (iii) after such four (4) Business Day period, the Company Board, after discussions with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors and taking into account any amendments, modifications or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement proposed in a written offer by Parent, determines in good faith that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that the failure of the Company Board to make an Adverse Recommendation Change and/or effect a termination of this Agreement to enter into a definitive merger or purchase agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal still would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided, however, that any material revision to any Acquisition Proposal shall require a new written notice to be provided in accordance with clause (i) and the Company shall be required to comply again with the requirements of this Section 6.03(e); provided, further, that the notice and negotiation period set forth in clause (i) shall be two (2) Business Days (as opposed to four (4) Business Days). After delivery of any written notice pursuant to this Section 6.03(e) and until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours of any material development) keep Parent informed of all material developments affecting the terms of any such Superior Proposal.

(f)    The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and shall cause its and their Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, solicitations, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any Third Party conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or Inquiry. The Company also agrees that it will promptly request each Third Party that has executed a confidentiality agreement prior to the date hereof in connection with its consideration of acquiring the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to return or destroy (as provided in the terms of such confidentiality agreement) all confidential information furnished to such Third Party prior to the date hereof by or on behalf of it or any of its Subsidiaries.

(g)    Nothing contained in this Section 6.03 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule

45

14d-9 promulgated under the 1934 Act or (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the 1934 Act or other similar communication to stockholders of the Company in response to an Acquisition Proposal that is not a tender offer, so long as any such disclosure (y) includes an express reaffirmation of the Company Board Recommendation, without any amendment, withdrawal, alteration, modification or qualification thereof and (z) does not include any statement that constitutes, and does not otherwise constitute, an Adverse Recommendation Change; provided, however, that this Section 6.03(g) shall not be deemed to permit the Company Board to make an Adverse Recommendation Change other than in accordance with Section 6.03(d) and Section 6.03(e).

Section 6.04.    Access to Information.

(a)    From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and subject to Applicable Law and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, for the purposes of furthering or preparing for the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby or integration planning relating thereto, (i) give to Parent, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the employees, offices (subject to any COVID-19 Measures), properties, books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) furnish reasonably promptly to Parent, its counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized Representatives all information (financial or otherwise) as such Persons may reasonably request concerning the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ business, properties, Contracts and personnel, and (iii) instruct its employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized Representatives to reasonably cooperate with Parent in connection with the foregoing. Investigational activities pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall be conducted in such manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and shall not include the collection or analysis of any environmental samples. No information or knowledge obtained in any review or investigation pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company or Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 6.04, the Company may, as it deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided under this Section 6.04 as “Outside Counsel Only Material.” Outside Counsel Only Material and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, directors, or other Representatives of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the Company or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.04, materials provided pursuant to this Section 6.04 may be redacted (i) as necessary to comply with terms of any applicable confidentiality arrangements to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party as of the date hereof (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure that does not result in a violation), and (ii) as necessary to address reasonable legal privilege concerns (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure to the maximum extent that does not result in such loss of any such attorney-client, attorney work product or other legal privilege).

(c)    Nothing in this Section 6.04 shall require the Company to permit any inspection of, or to disclose any information (i) concerning Acquisition Proposals, which shall be governed by Section 6.03, (ii) regarding the deliberations of the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any similar transaction or transactions with any other Person, the entry into the Agreement, or any materials provided to the Company Board or any committee thereof in connection therewith or (iii) the disclosure of which would result in a violation of any Applicable Law, including federal or state securities, antitrust or privacy laws (provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure that does not result in a violation of this clause (iii)).

(d)    Parent will hold, and will cause its Representatives and Affiliates to hold any information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.04 and Section 8.01 in confidence to the extent required by, and in accordance with, and will otherwise comply with, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

46

Section 6.05.    Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all steps necessary to cause any dispositions of Company Stock (including Company Equity Awards or derivative securities with respect to Company Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by Article 2 of this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act with respect to the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act.

Section 6.06.    Certain Pre-Closing Transactions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall effect the transactions described in Section 6.06 of the Company Disclosure Letter.

ARTICLE 7

Covenants of Parent and Merger Subsidiary

Parent and Merger Subsidiary jointly and severally agree that:

Section 7.01.    Obligations of Merger Subsidiary; Consent of Sole Stockholder of Merger Subsidiary. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Subsidiary to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, as sole stockholder of Merger Subsidiary, will deliver an action by written consent in accordance with Section 228(c) of Delaware Law adopting and approving this Agreement.

Section 7.02.    Indemnification and Insurance. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation, and the Surviving Corporation hereby agrees, to do the following:

(a)    During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries to, honor and fulfill all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses in favor of any Person who is or prior to the Effective Time becomes, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, a present or former director or officer (including as a fiduciary with respect to an employee benefit plan) of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors (each, an “Indemnified Person”) as provided in the Company Charter and Company Bylaws, the organizational documents of any Subsidiary of the Company or any indemnification agreement between such Indemnified Person and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in effect as of the Effective Time and to the extent set forth on Section 7.02(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter. For six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause to be maintained in effect provisions in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation (or in such documents of any successor to the business of the Surviving Corporation) regarding indemnification and exculpation from liability of, and advancement of expenses to, all Indemnified Persons that are no less advantageous to the Indemnified Persons than the corresponding provisions in the Company Charter and Company Bylaws in existence on the date of this Agreement.

(b)    For six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless all Indemnified Persons to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law and any other Applicable Law in the event of any threatened or actual claim, suit, action, proceeding or investigation (a “Claim”), whether civil, criminal or administrative, in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including claims with respect to the adoption of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby), to the extent based on, or arising out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that the Indemnified Person is or was a director (including in a capacity as a member of any board committee) or officer of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before, on or after the Effective Time, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities,

47

costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any Claim to each Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, subject to Section 7.02(f)), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of or in connection with any such threatened or actual Claim.

(c)    Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, or if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to purchase a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the D&O Insurance (the “Tail Policy”) or maintain in effect the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “D&O Insurance”), in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to any claim related to any period or time at or prior to the Effective Time (including claims with respect to the adoption of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby) with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies; provided that the aggregate premiums for the Tail Policy and six (6)-year period of D&O Insurance shall not exceed 300% of the amount per annum the Company paid in its last full fiscal year of coverage (which amount is set forth in Section 7.02(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter) (such maximum amount, the “Maximum Tail Premium”) and if the cost for such D&O Insurance policy exceeds the Maximum Tail Premium, then the Company (or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be) shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Tail Premium.

(d)    If the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys substantially all of its property and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the applicable successor, assign or transferee shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.02 (including this Section 7.02(d)).

(e)    The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Section 7.02 shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the Company Charter and Company Bylaws or the governing documents of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, under Delaware Law or any other Applicable Law, under any contract or agreement of any Indemnified Person with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise. These rights shall survive the consummation of the Merger and from and after the Effective Time are intended to benefit and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person. From and after the Effective Time, the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 7.02 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Person without the consent of such Indemnified Person.

(f)    The Surviving Corporation shall pay, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay, on an as-incurred basis the fees and expenses of such Indemnified Person (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in advance of the final disposition of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation that is the subject of the right to indemnification; provided that such Person shall, prior to the receipt of any such advancements, undertake to reimburse the Surviving Corporation for all amounts so advanced if a court of competent jurisdiction determines, by a final, nonappealable order or judgment, that such Person is not entitled to indemnification.

Section 7.03.    Employee Matters.

(a)    With respect to employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time (each, a “Company Employee”), for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing (or, if earlier, the termination of the applicable Company Employee’s employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their Affiliates) (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide (i) a total target annual compensation opportunity (consisting of annual base salary, target annual cash incentive opportunity (including with respect to the fiscal year that includes the Effective Time) and target long-term incentive opportunity, as applicable), that is no less favorable in the aggregate than that provided to such

48

Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that during the Continuation Period, such Company Employee’s annual base salary or base wage rate, as applicable, shall be no less favorable than that provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) employee benefits (excluding equity-based compensation, retiree health and welfare benefits, retention benefits and severance benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to the Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b)    Without limiting the generality of Section 7.03(a), during the Continuation Period, if the employment of any Company Employee is terminated other than for “cause,” Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates to, provide cash severance benefits to any such terminated Company Employee (who is not party to an individual agreement providing for severance benefits) that are no less favorable than (i) for any Company Employee employed in the United States, the greater of (w) the cash severance benefits described in Section 7.03(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (x) the cash severance benefits to which similarly situated employees of Parent or its Affiliates would be eligible to receive under Parent’s or its Affiliates’ severance policies, plans or arrangements; and (ii) for any Company Employee employed outside the United States, the greater of (y) the cash severance benefits required under Applicable Law, and (z) the cash severance benefits provided under any Employee Plan under which the Company Employee was covered immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case subject to such Company Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent.

(c)    With respect to any employee benefit plan, including any funded or unfunded and qualified or nonqualified employee benefit plan or program, maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, level of benefits and vesting, each Company Employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Subsidiary, to the extent service with the predecessor employer is recognized by the Company or such Subsidiary under the comparable Employee Plans) shall be treated as service with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their Affiliates; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits or coverage for the same period of services, for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan, for purposes of any benefit plan that provides retiree welfare benefits, or to any benefit plan that is a frozen plan or provides grandfathered benefits.

(d)    Parent shall waive, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates to waive, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates in which any Company Employee (or the dependents of any eligible employee) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would apply and have not been satisfied by such Company Employee or his or her dependents under the analogous Employee Plan. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates to recognize, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Company Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) under the applicable Employee Plan during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which such Company Employee will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(e)    If requested by Parent in writing delivered to the Company not less than ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date, the Company Board (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt resolutions and take such corporate action as is necessary or appropriate to terminate any 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by the Company (the “Company 401(k) Plan”), effective as of the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and contingent upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. If Parent requests that the Company 401(k) Plan be terminated, (i) the Company shall provide Parent with evidence that such plan has been terminated, contingent

49

upon the occurrence of the Effective Time (the form and substance of which shall be subject to reasonable review and comment by Parent), not later than two (2) days immediately preceding the Closing Date and (ii) the Company Employees shall be eligible to participate, effective as of the Effective Time (or as soon as reasonably administratively practicable thereafter), in a 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by Parent or one of its Subsidiaries (a “Parent 401(k) Plan”). The Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to take any and all actions as may be required, including amendments to the Company 401(k) Plan and/or the Parent 401(k) Plan, to permit the continuing employees of Company and its Subsidiaries who are then actively employed to make rollover contributions to the Parent 401(k) Plan of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in the form of cash or notes (in the case of loans) in an amount equal to the full account balance distributed to such employee from the Company 401(k) Plan.

(f)    Nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 7.03, shall create in any employees, former employees, any participant in any Employee Plan or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement (without limiting Section 7.02 and Section 11.06). Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed, interpreted or construed in any way to (i) create any right to continued employment or service with Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates, or to interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates to discharge or terminate the services of any of their respective employees, officers, directors or consultants at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, (ii) establish, modify or amend the provisions of an Employee Plan or other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement of Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates, or (iii) alter or limit the ability of Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Employee Plan or other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement of Parent, Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates.

ARTICLE 8

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall cooperate with each other and use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including (i) preparing and filing with any Governmental Authority as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement all documentation to effect all necessary filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents, (ii) using reasonable best efforts to obtain and maintain all Permits, waivers and other confirmations required to be obtained from any Governmental Authority that are necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) using reasonable best efforts to defend or contest any action, suit or proceeding challenging this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iv) using reasonable best efforts to execute and deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that in no event shall the parties be required to waive any right or condition set forth in this Agreement or any Transaction Document.

(b)    Each of Parent and the Company shall (i) make with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (A) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act as promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement), (B) each other appropriate filing required pursuant to any Regulatory Law (the “Foreign Antitrust Approvals”) as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, and (C) each other appropriate filing relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement required pursuant to any other Applicable Law (the “Foreign Licensing Approvals” and together with the HSR Act clearance and the Foreign Antitrust Approvals, the “Regulatory Approvals”), as

50

promptly as practicable; provided, that each party shall in good faith consult with the other parties prior to making any filings other than filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and filings set forth on Section 9.01(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (ii) respond to, as promptly as practicable, any request for additional information, documents, or other materials received by either of them or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates from any Governmental Authority in respect of such filings.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may, as it deems advisable and necessary, reasonably redact materials to protect competitively sensitive information or information concerning valuation, or as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client, attorney work product or other privilege concerns and reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other parties under this Section 8.01(c) as “Outside Counsel Only” (such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient, unless express written permission is obtained in advance from the party providing the materials). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement, Parent shall control the strategy for securing all Regulatory Approvals; provided, however, that Parent shall consult with and consider in good faith the views of the Company and its counsel in connection therewith. Parent shall pay all filing fees associated with all filings, forms, notices, registrations and notifications relating to the Regulatory Approvals.

(d)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with the efforts referenced in Section 8.01(a) and Section 8.01(c), each party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, use its reasonable best efforts to promptly take any and all steps necessary to avoid, eliminate or resolve each and every impediment and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals and waivers that may be necessary or required to secure any Regulatory Approval, so as to enable the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the End Date, including: (i) proposing, negotiating, offering to commit and effect (and if such offer is accepted, committing to and effecting), by order, hold separate order, trust, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license, disposition or hold separate of the assets or businesses of the Company or otherwise offering to take or offering to commit to take any action (including any action that limits its freedom of action, ownership or control with respect to, or its ability to retain or hold, any of the businesses, assets, product lines, properties or services of the Company, and if the offer is accepted, taking or committing to take such action) (collectively, a “Divestiture”); and (ii) terminating, relinquishing, modifying or waiving existing relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of the Company (collectively, a “Remedy”); provided, that (A) no such Divestiture or Remedy shall be required if such Divestiture or Remedy, individually or in the aggregate with any other Divestiture or Remedy, would reasonably be expected to materially impair the benefits that Parent expects to achieve from the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) neither

The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 8.05 shall not limit the remedies available hereunder and any failure to deliver any such notice shall not affect any of the conditions set forth in Article 9 or any right to terminate under Article 9.

Section 8.06.    Transaction Litigation. Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement, the Company (a) shall, subject to the terms of this Section 8.06, control the defense of any litigation brought by stockholders of the Company against the Company and/or its officers and/or directors relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, (b) shall promptly provide Parent with copies of all proceedings and correspondence relating thereto and keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof, and (c) shall give Parent the opportunity, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, to consult and participate with the Company regarding the defense, settlement or prosecution of any such litigation and shall consider in good faith any of Parent’s comments in conducting the defense, settlement or prosecution of such litigation.

53

Company and Parent shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and their and their respective Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, cooperate in the defense or settlement of any litigation contemplated by this Section 8.06.

Section 8.07.    Financing Cooperation.

(a)    Prior to the Effective Time, the Company agrees to provide all reasonable cooperation in connection with the arrangement of any debt or equity financing to be obtained by Parent, Merger Subsidiary or their respective Affiliates in connection with the Merger (“Financing”); provided that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to: (i) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any fees or reimburse any expenses for which it has not received prior reimbursement; (ii) enter into any definitive agreement to be effective prior to the Closing; (iii) give any indemnities; (iv) take any action that, in the good faith determination of the Company, would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, be unduly burdensome or create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (v) take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a contravention of, violation or breach of, or default under, this Agreement, the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, any organizational document of the Company’s Subsidiaries, any Material Contract (including confidentiality provisions therein) or any Applicable Law; (vi) provide access to or disclose information which would result in waiving any attorney-client privilege or work-product privilege; (vii) take any action which would contravene any position taken in any tax return or financial statements; or (viii) pay any commitment or other similar fee or incur any other cost or liability in connection with the Financing prior to the Closing, except for any liabilities that are conditioned on the Closing having occurred. Nothing in this Section 8.07 will require the Company Board to adopt resolutions approving the agreements, documents or instruments pursuant to which any Financing is obtained or pledge any collateral with respect to any Financing prior to Closing.

(b)    Parent shall promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries, in connection with such cooperation. The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any materials that are to be presented during any road shows or bank presentations conducted in connection with the Financing that contain confidential information about the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and Parent shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel. Parent shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries, and their Affiliates, for and against any and all losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of Financing or any alternative financing and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than information provided by the Company expressly for use in connection therewith).

(c)    All nonpublic or other confidential information provided by the Company or any of its Representatives pursuant to this Agreement shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Parent and Merger Subsidiary will be permitted to disclose such information to any financing sources or prospective financing sources and other financial institutions and investors that are or may become parties to the Financing and to any underwriters, initial purchasers or placement agents in connection with the Financing (and, in each case, to their respective counsel and auditors), so long as such Persons agree to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement as if parties thereto.

(d)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions contained in Section 8.07(a), represent the sole obligation of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives with respect to cooperation in connection with the arrangement of any financing to be obtained by Parent or Merger Subsidiary with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and no other provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations. Parent and Merger Subsidiary each acknowledge and agree that obtaining any financing is not a condition to the Closing.

(e)    The Company and its Subsidiaries will be deemed to be in compliance with Section 8.07(a) (including for purposes of determining the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 9.02(a)(i)) unless and until

54

(i) Parent provides written notice (the “Non-Cooperation Notice”) to the Company of any alleged failure to comply, or action or failure to act which could be believed to be a breach of Section 8.07(a), (ii) Parent includes in such Non-Cooperation Notice reasonable detail regarding the cooperation required to cure such alleged failure (which shall not require the Company, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Representatives to provide any cooperation that it would not otherwise be required to provide under Section 8.07(a)), and (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries fail to take the actions specified on such Non-Cooperation Notice within five (5) Business Days from receipt of such Non-Cooperation Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ breach of any of the covenants required to be performed by it under this Section 8.07 shall not be considered in determining the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 9.02(a)(i), unless such breach is the primary cause of Parent being unable to obtain the proceeds of the Financing at Closing.

Section 8.08.    No Control of Other Party’s Business. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent or Merger Subsidiary, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the other party’s or its Subsidiaries’ operations prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ operations.

Section 8.09.    Delisting; Deregistration. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part pursuant to Applicable Law and the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq to cause (a) the delisting of the Company Common Stock from the Nasdaq as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time; and (b) the deregistration of the Company Common Stock pursuant to the 1934 Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

Section 8.10.    Anti-Takeover Laws. Assuming the accuracy of the representation in the last sentence of Section 5.09, the Company and the Company Board shall (a) take all actions within their power to ensure that no “anti-takeover” statute (including Section 203 of the Delaware Law) or similar statute or regulation (or provision of the Company Charter or Company Bylaws or organizational documents of its Subsidiaries) is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) not take any action that would cause any such “anti-takeover” statute or similar statute or regulation (or provision of the Company Charter or Company Bylaws or organizational documents of its Subsidiaries) to become applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; and (c) if any such “anti-takeover” statute or similar statute or regulation (or provision of the Company Charter or Company Bylaws or organizational documents of its Subsidiaries) becomes applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, take all actions within their power to ensure that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as reasonably practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation (or provision of the Company Charter or Company Bylaws or organizational documents of its Subsidiaries) on the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 8.11.    Actions with Respect to Units and Stock. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, take all actions necessary or reasonably requested by Parent to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents with respect to the Company Stock, Common Units, Series A Convertible Preferred Units and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (including Section 2.02 and Section 9.01(d)), including: (i) causing all Paired Interests to be exchanged for Class A Common Stock which will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Exchange Agreement or the Voting and Support Agreements, (ii) effecting the conversion of all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into Class A Common Stock in accordance with the Voting and Support Agreements, (iii) if requested by Parent in its sole discretion, causing all Series A Convertible Preferred Units to be converted, surrendered or canceled in connection with the Closing in accordance with the OpCo LLC Agreement and (iv) effecting the transfer of all Common Units beneficially owned by Blueapple to the Company.

55

Section 8.12.    Payoff Letters.

(a)    The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, deliver all notices and take all other actions necessary, appropriate or reasonably requested by Parent to facilitate the termination at or following the Effective Time of all commitments in respect of the Credit Agreement, the repayment in full on the Closing Date of all obligations thereunder, and the release on the Closing Date of any Liens securing the obligations thereunder and guarantees in connection therewith (collectively, the “Payoff and Release”). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall, (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Parent drafts of the Payoff Documents (as defined below), (ii) timely deliver all notices required under the Credit Agreement to effectuate the Payoff and Release and (iii) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Parent (x) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent that the Company has timely delivered such notices and (y) an executed payoff letter with respect to the Credit Agreement (the “Payoff Letter”) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent from the applicable agent on behalf of the Persons to whom such indebtedness is owed, which Payoff Letter shall, among other things, set forth the amount required to effectuate the Payoff and Release (the “Payoff Amount”) and provide that all obligations outstanding under, and all Liens and guarantees granted in connection with, the Credit Agreement shall, upon the payment of Payoff Amount, be released and terminated and (z) customary release documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent evidencing the release of each Lien and guarantee granted in connection with the Credit Agreement (the Payoff Letter and other documents contemplated in clauses (x), (y) and (z) collectively, the “Payoff Documents”).

(b)    At or prior to the Effective Time and subject to the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations set forth in Section 8.12(a), Parent will repay (or cause to be repaid) on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries the Payoff Amount in the manner set forth in the Payoff Letter.

(b)    No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 11.04.    Expenses.

(a)    General. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

(ii)    If (A) after the date of this Agreement and prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been made to the Company Board or is publicly announced (either by the Company, the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, their respective Representatives, or otherwise publicly announced and confirmed by the Company, the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, or their respective Representatives) (and in, any such case, such Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn at least three (3) Business Days prior to the earlier of the Company Stockholder Meeting, the End Date or the date of such termination), (B) thereafter, this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(i) (at a time when Parent could have terminated this Agreement pursuant to such provision), Section 10.01(b)(iii), or Section 10.01(c)(iii), and (C) within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company consummates such Acquisition Proposal or enters into a definitive merger or purchase agreement to effect the transaction contemplated by an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not the same Acquisition Proposal as that referred to above), then the Company shall pay to Parent the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds on the earlier of the date of consummation of such Acquisition Proposal or the entry into such definitive merger or purchase agreement. For purposes of this Section 11.04(b)(ii), all references to “20%” and “80%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(iii)    In no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one (1) occasion. Parent and Merger Subsidiary agree that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Company Termination Fee (and any amounts owed pursuant to

61

Section 11.04(b)(iv)) is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 11.04(b)(i) or Section 11.04(b)(ii) and such Company Termination Fee (and any amounts owed pursuant to Section 11.04(b)(iv)) is paid in full in accordance with this Agreement (and without limiting Section 11.13 prior to such termination), Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall be precluded from any other remedy against the Company, any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, and any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, stockholders and Affiliates and their respective Representatives, at law or in equity or otherwise, and neither Parent nor Merger Subsidiary shall seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, stockholders or Affiliates or their respective Representatives, in each case in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except in the event of Fraud or a Willful and Material Breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document as between the parties thereto.

(iv)    The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 11.04 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 11.04(b)(i) or Section 11.04(b)(ii) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a Claim that results in a judgment against the Company for the Company Termination Fee or any portion thereof, the Company will pay to Parent its out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with such Claim, together with interest on the amount due 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 was required to be made through the date that such payment was actually received, or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 11.05.    Disclosure Letter References.

The mere inclusion of an item in the Company Disclosure Letter as an exception to a representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other provision hereof shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 11.06.    Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment.

(a)    The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(b)    No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto, except that Parent or Merger Subsidiary may transfer or assign all (but not less than all) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one of its wholly owned Subsidiaries at any time; provided that such transfer or assignment shall not (i) relieve Parent or Merger Subsidiary of its obligations hereunder, or (ii) enlarge, alter, limit or change any obligation of

62

any other party hereto or due to Parent or Merger Subsidiary. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 11.06(b) shall be null and void.

Each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company agrees to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating hereto in the applicable Chosen Court pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company irrevocably waives any objections or immunities to jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled or become entitled (including sovereign immunity, immunity to pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) in any legal suit, action or proceeding against it arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby which is instituted in any such court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that a final trial court judgment in any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment. Each of the parties hereto agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to it at the addresses set forth in Section 11.01 shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court.

Section 11.09.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 11.10.    Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by “.pdf” format, scanned pages or electronic signature such as DocuSign shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

Section 11.11.    Entire Agreement; No Other Representations and Warranties.

(a)    This Agreement, including the Company Disclosure Letter, together with the other Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

63

(b)    Each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary acknowledges, agrees and represents that, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company in Article 4, and in any other Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any other Person makes, and neither Parent nor Merger Subsidiary is relying on, any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including their respective businesses, financial condition or prospects or with respect to any other information made available to Parent or Merger Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the accuracy or completeness thereof). Neither the Company nor any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Parent or Merger Subsidiary, or Parent’s or Merger Subsidiary’s use of, any such information, including any information, documents, projections, forecasts or other material made available to Parent or Merger Subsidiary in certain “data rooms” or management presentations in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, unless, and then only to the extent that, any such information is expressly included in a representation or warranty contained in Article 4 or in any certificate delivered hereunder with respect thereto (but without limiting any representations and warranties in any other Transaction Documents).

(c)    The Company acknowledges, agrees and represents that, except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 5, and in any other Transaction Documents, none of Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any other Person on behalf of Parent or Merger Subsidiary makes, and the Company is not relying on, any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Parent or Merger Subsidiary or with respect to any other information made available to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the accuracy or completeness thereof). None of Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to the Company or any other Person resulting from the distribution to the Company, or the Company’s use of, any information, unless, and then only to the extent that, any such information is expressly included in a representation or warranty contained in Article 5 or in any certificate delivered hereunder with respect thereto (but without limiting any representations and warranties in any other Transaction Documents).

Section 11.12.    Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 11.13.    Specific Performance.

(a)    The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 11.08 without proof of damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and any other agreement executed in connection herewith, at law or in equity, and the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that such relief shall include the right of the Company to cause Parent and Merger Subsidiary, and of Parent and Merger Subsidiary to cause the Company, to consummate the Merger and perform their other obligations under Article 2 of this Agreement, in each case, if each of the conditions set forth in

64

Section 9.01 and Section 9.02 (in the case of Parent and Merger Subsidiary’s obligations) or Section 9.01 and Section 9.03 (in the case of the Company’s obligations) have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions which by their nature cannot be satisfied until Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at Closing). Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties hereto have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.

(b)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 11.13 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 11.14.    Financing Matters. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company on behalf of itself, its Subsidiaries and each of its controlled Affiliates hereby: (a) agrees that any claim, audit, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (a “Proceeding”), whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Parties, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agrees that any such Proceeding shall 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), except as otherwise provided in any definitive document or agreement relating to the Financing, (c) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its controlled Affiliates to bring or support any Proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, (d) agrees that service of process upon the Company, its Subsidiaries or its controlled Affiliates in any such Proceeding or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 11.01, (e) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Proceeding in any such court, (f) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any Proceeding brought against the Financing Parties in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (g) agrees that none of the Financing Parties will have any liability to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective controlled Affiliates or Representatives (in each case, other than Parent, Merger Subsidiary or their respective Subsidiaries) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, and waives any and all claims and causes of action against the Financing Parties in any way relating to or arising out of the foregoing, and (h) agrees that the Financing Parties are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of this Section 11.14, and that such provisions and the definitions of “Financing Entities” and “Financing Parties” (and any other provisions of this Agreement to the extent a modification thereof would affect the substance of any of the foregoing) shall not be amended in any way adverse to any Financing Party without the prior written consent of each related Financing Entity.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnitee was authorized by the Board of Directors or the Proceeding (or part thereof) relates to the enforcement of the Corporation’s obligations under this Article VI, Section 1. Any person serving as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee, administrator, employee or agent of an Other Entity whose equity or other interests are owned by the Corporation shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation.

Such advancement shall be unconditional, unsecured and interest free and shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay any expenses advanced; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final judicial decision of the Proceeding from which there is no right to appeal (“final disposition”) shall be made only upon receipt of an unsecured undertaking by the Indemnitee to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined by final disposition that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or otherwise.

SECTION 3.    CLAIMS – If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Article VI is not paid in full within thirty days, or, in the case of advancement of expenses, fifteen days, provided that Indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Article VI, Section 2, if required, after a written claim therefor by the Indemnitee has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the fullest extent permitted by law.

SECTION 5.    SURVIVAL; NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS – The rights conferred on any Indemnitee by this Article VI shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and are not exclusive of other rights arising under the Certificate of Incorporation, any bylaw, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise. Any such rights shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such Indemnitee. The Corporation may enter into agreements with any Indemnitee for the purpose of providing for indemnification or advancement of expenses.

SECTION 6.    OTHER SOURCES; AMOUNTS RECEIVED FROM AN OTHER ENTITY – The Corporation shall (i) be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to an Indemnitee shall be primary and any obligation of other entities or persons with respect to which an Indemnitee may have rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance for the same liability, loss or expenses incurred by such Indemnitee (the “Secondary Indemnitors”), is secondary), and (ii) subject to the delivery of the undertaking contemplated by Article VI, Section 2, if required, be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by a Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all liabilities, losses and expenses as required by the terms of this Article VI, without regard to any rights an Indemnitee may have against any Secondary Indemnitor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Indemnitee who was or is serving at the Corporation’s request as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or agent of an Other Entity shall be reduced by any amount such Indemnitee may collect as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such Other Entity.

SECTION 7.    AMENDMENT OR REPEAL – All rights to indemnification under this Article VI shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation or legal representative thereof who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this Article VI is in effect. Any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of any Indemnitee arising hereunder shall not be diminished, eliminated or impaired by an amendment to or repeal of this Article VI or an amendment to or repeal of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the Proceeding or other matter for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought.

SECTION 8.    OTHER INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES – This Article VI shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Indemnitees when and as authorized by appropriate corporate action.

SECTION 9.    RELIANCE – Indemnitees who after the date of the adoption of this Article VI become or remain an Indemnitee described in Article VI, Section 1 will be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity, advancement of expenses and other rights contained in this Article VI in entering into or continuing the service.

SECTION 10.    SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE – In the event that any proceeding to which an Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against the Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be

-7-

presumed that the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such proceeding for purposes of Section 145(c) of the DGCL. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

10

(b)    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Merger Agreement (including any exhibits hereto), the Exchange Agreement and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein and therein constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c)    Governing Law. This Agreement and all Claims and causes of action hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such State.

(d)    Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement, the other agreements contemplated hereby or any transaction contemplated hereby (or, solely if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over any such suit, action or other proceeding, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) (the “Chosen Court”). Each of the Parties agrees to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating hereto in the applicable Chosen Court pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the applicable Chosen Court, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the Parties irrevocably waives any objections or immunities to jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled or become entitled (including sovereign immunity, immunity to pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) in any legal suit, action or proceeding against it arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby which is instituted in any such court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that a final trial court judgment in any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any Party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment. Each of the Parties agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to it at the addresses set forth in Section 16(g) shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court.

(E)    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(f)    Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 16(d) without proof of damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and any other agreement executed in connection herewith, at law or in equity, and the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Each of the

11

Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 16(f) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(i)    Construction. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of like import used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The definition of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and the plural. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The word “shall” shall be construed to have the same meaning as the word “will”. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, whether or not they are in fact followed by those words or words of like import. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or thing extends, and such shall not mean simply “if”. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. “Writing”, “written” and comparable terms refer to printing, typing and other means of reproducing words (including electronic media) in a visible form. Unless otherwise specified, references to any statute or law or any provision thereof shall be deemed to refer to such same as amended from time to time and to any rules or regulations promulgated

13

thereunder. References to any agreement or Contract are to that agreement or Contract as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. References to any Person include the successors and permitted assigns of that Person. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted. The phrase “date hereof” or “date of this Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble of this Agreement. References from or through any date mean, unless otherwise specified, from and including or through and including, respectively. The measure of a period of one (1) month or year for purposes of this Agreement will be the date of the following month or year corresponding to the starting date; and, if no corresponding date exists, then the end date of such period being measured will be the next actual date of the following month or year (for example, one (1) month following February 18 is March 18 and one (1) month following March 31 is May 1). References to “law”, “laws” or to a particular statute or law shall be deemed also to include any Applicable Law. Any references in this Agreement to “dollars” or “$” shall be to U.S. dollars. The terms “beneficially own,” “beneficially owned” and “beneficial owner” shall each have a correlative meaning.

(j)    Assignment. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto; provided, that Parent or Merger Sub may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (provided such assignment is in connection with an assignment of the Merger Agreement to the same Affiliate). No assignment by any Party shall relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this Section 16(j) is null and void.

(k)    Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other Parties hereto. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Parties, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by “.pdf” format, scanned pages or electronic signature such as DocuSign shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

Each of the Parties agrees to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating hereto in the applicable Chosen Court pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the applicable Chosen Court, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 16(d) without proof of damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and any other agreement executed in connection herewith, at law or in equity, and the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.

References to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The definition of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and the plural. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The word “shall” shall be construed to have the same meaning as the word “will”. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, whether or not they are in fact followed by those words or words of like import. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or thing extends, and such shall not mean simply “if”. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. “Writing”, “written” and comparable terms refer to printing, typing and other means of reproducing words (including electronic media) in a visible form. Unless otherwise specified, references to any statute or law or any provision thereof shall be deemed to refer to such same as amended from time to time and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. References to any agreement or Contract are to that agreement or Contract as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

References from or through any date mean, unless otherwise specified, from and including or through and including, respectively. The measure of a period of one (1) month or year for purposes of this Agreement will be the date of the following month or year corresponding to the starting date; and, if no corresponding date exists, then the end date of such period being measured will be the next actual date of the following month or year (for example, one (1) month following February 18 is March 18 and one (1) month following March 31 is May 1). References to “law”, “laws” or to a particular statute or law shall be deemed also to include any Applicable Law. Any references in this Agreement to “dollars” or “$” shall be to U.S. dollars. The terms “beneficially own,” “beneficially owned” and “beneficial owner” shall each have a correlative meaning.

(j)    Assignment. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto; provided, that Parent or Merger Sub may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (provided such assignment is in connection with an assignment of the Merger Agreement to the same Affiliate). No assignment by any Party shall relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this Section 16(j) is null and void.

(k)    Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

Blueapple, in consideration of the receipt of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2(b), hereby agrees to irrevocably sell, assign, transfer, deliver, and convey to the Company, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), all Common Units beneficially owned and held of record by Blueapple (the “Purchased Units”).

Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10(g) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

The word “shall” shall be construed to have the same meaning as the word “will”.

References from or through any date mean, unless otherwise specified, from and including or through and including, respectively. The measure of a period of one (1) month or year for purposes of this Agreement will be the date of the following month or year corresponding to the starting date; and, if no corresponding date exists, then the end date of such period being measured will be the next actual date of the following month or year (for example, one (1) month following February 18 is March 18 and one (1) month following March 31 is May 1). References to “law”, “laws” or to a particular statute or law shall be deemed also to include any Applicable Law. Any references in this Agreement to “dollars” or “$” shall be to U.S. dollars. The terms “beneficially own,” “beneficially owned” and “beneficial owner” shall each have a correlative meaning.

(k)    Assignment. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto; provided, that Parent or Merger Sub may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (provided such assignment is in connection with an assignment of the Merger Agreement to the same Affiliate). No assignment by any Party shall relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this Section 10(k) is null and void.
