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

SECTION 1 DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 8, as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event within three Business Days after the date of this Agreement (subject to the Company having timely provided any information required to be provided by it pursuant to Section 1.2), Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, commence (within the meaning of Rule14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer. The obligations of Purchaser, and of Parent to cause Purchaser, to accept for payment and pay for any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject to (i) the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition (as defined in Exhibit E hereto) and (ii) the satisfaction or waiver by Purchaser of each of the other conditions set forth in Exhibit E hereto (together with the Minimum Condition, the “Offer Conditions”). The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the Offer Conditions (and shall not be subject to any other conditions). Purchaser expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (A) increase the Offer Price (by increasing the Cash Consideration and/or the amounts that may become payable pursuant to the CVR Agreement), (B) add additional milestones solely with respect to additional milestone payments to the CVR Agreement, (C) waive any Offer Condition or (D) modify any of the other terms or conditions of the Offer prior to the Acceptance Time to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, except that, unless otherwise provided by this Agreement, without the consent of the Company, Purchaser shall not (1) reduce the Offer Price or increase the Offer Price by an increment of less than $0.05 per share, (2) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer (other than by adding consideration as contemplated by Section 1.1(a)(A) or (B)), (3) reduce the number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, (4) waive, amend or change the Minimum Condition or the condition set forth in clause (h) of Exhibit E, (5) add to the Offer Conditions, (6) extend the expiration of the Offer except as required or permitted by Section 1.1(b), (7) provide for any “subsequent offering period” within the meaning of Rule14d-11 promulgated

under the Exchange Act or (8) modify any Offer Condition or any term of the Offer set forth in this Agreement in a manner adverse to the holders of Shares or that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impair the consummation of the Offer or prevent, materially delay or impair the ability of the Parent or Purchaser to consummate the Offer, the Merger or the other Contemplated Transactions.

(b) The Offer shall initially be scheduled to expire at midnight (New York City time) on the date that is 20 Business Days (for this purpose calculated in accordance with Rule14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act) after the commencement of the Offer (the “Initial Expiration Time”) or, in the event the Initial Expiration Time has been extended pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, the date and time to which the Offer has been so extended (the Initial Expiration Time, or such later time to which the Initial Expiration Time has been so extended, the “Expiration Time”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to the parties’ respective termination rights under Section 8: (i) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any Offer Condition is not satisfied (unless such condition is waivable by Purchaser or Parent and has been waived), Purchaser may, in its discretion (and without the consent of the Company or any other Person), extend the Offer for additional periods of up to 10 Business Days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; and (ii) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any Offer Condition is not satisfied (unless such condition is waivable by Purchaser or Parent and has been waived), at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer for additional periods specified by the Company of up to 10 Business Days per extension (or such other period as the parties may agree), to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied;provided,however, that in no event shall Parent or Purchaser (1) be required to extend the Offer beyond the earlier to occur of (x) the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8 and (y) the End Date (such earlier occurrence, the “Extension Deadline”) or (2) be permitted to extend the Offer beyond the Extension Deadline without the prior written consent of the Company.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Offer and this Agreement and the satisfaction of all of the Offer Conditions, Purchaser will accept for payment (the date and time of such acceptance, the “Acceptance Time”) and thereafter pay for all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after the later of (i) the earliest time as of which Purchaser is permitted under the Exchange Act to accept for payment shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer and (ii) the earliest time as of which each of the Offer Conditions shall have been satisfied or waived. On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly after the Acceptance Time pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, for all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the Offer.

(d) Parent and Purchaser shall promptly supply to the Company in writing, for inclusion in the Schedule14D-9, all information concerning Parent and Purchaser required under applicable U.S. federal securities laws to be included in the Schedule14D-9.

(e) The Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, on behalf of Purchaser, with the Paying Agent, at or prior to the Acceptance Time (but in no event later than the Business Day during which the Acceptance Time occurs), all of the funds necessary to

purchase any and all shares of Company Common Stock that Purchaser becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer. Unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Purchaser shall not terminate or withdraw the Offer prior to any scheduled expiration date without the prior written consent of the Company in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Purchaser shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) following such termination terminate the Offer and shall not acquire any shares of Company Common Stock pursuant thereto. If the Offer is terminated in accordance with this Agreement prior to the Acceptance Time, Purchaser shall promptly return, or cause any depositary acting on behalf of Purchaser to return, all tendered shares of Company Common Stock to the tendering stockholders.

(f) At or prior to the Acceptance Time, Parent shall duly authorize, execute and deliver and shall ensure that the Rights Agent duly authorizes, executes and delivers, the CVR Agreement, and shall substantially concurrently therewith provide a copy to the Company.

1.2 Offer Documents. On the date of commencement of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser shall: (a) file a Schedule TO (together with all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) with respect to the Offer, which shall contain or shall incorporate by reference an offer to purchase and forms of the related letter of transmittal and form of summary advertisement (the Schedule TO, the Offer and such other documents, together with all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto, the “Offer Documents”), and (b) cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of the Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities law. Parent and Purchaser shall cause the Offer Documents (i) to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of applicable U.S. federal securities laws and (ii) on the date first filed with the SEC and on the date first published, sent or given to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no covenant is made by Parent or Purchaser with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of the Company in writing specifically for inclusion in the Offer Documents. The Company shall promptly supply Parent and Purchaser in writing, for inclusion in the Offer Documents, all information concerning the Company required under the Exchange Act to be included in the Offer Documents. Each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company agrees promptly to correct any information provided by them for use in the Offer Documents if and to the extent it shall have obtained knowledge that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and each of Parent and Purchaser further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Offer Documents as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities law.

The Schedule14D-9 shall include as an exhibit an Information Statement pursuant to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule14f-l promulgated thereunder. The Company shall cause the Schedule14D-9 to be disseminated to the holders of Shares, as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities law. The Company shall cause the Schedule14D-9 (i) to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of applicable U.S. federal securities laws and (ii) on the date first filed with the SEC and on the date first published, sent or given to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no covenant is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of Parent or Purchaser in writing specifically for inclusion in the Schedule14D-9. Each of the Company, Parent and Purchaser agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule14D-9 if and to the extent it shall have obtained knowledge that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Schedule14D-9 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the holders of Shares, in each case, as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities law. Parent, Purchaser and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule14D-9 and any amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by Parent, Purchaser and their counsel. In addition, the Company agrees to provide Parent, Purchaser and their counsel any comments, whether written or oral, that the Company or its counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule14D-9 promptly after the receipt of such comments, and any written or oral responses thereto. Parent, Purchaser and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such responses and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by Parent, Purchaser and their counsel. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to respond to any such comments promptly after they are received.

In connection with the Offer, the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to, promptly furnish Parent and Purchaser with mailing labels, security position listings, anynon-objecting beneficial owner lists and any available listings or computer files containing the names and addresses of the record holders of Shares as of the most recent practicable date and shall furnish Parent and Purchaser with such additional available information (including, but not limited to, periodic updates of such information) and such other assistance as Parent, Purchaser or their agents may reasonably request in communicating the Offer to the record and beneficial holders of Shares.

1.8 Conversion of Shares.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(i) any shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (or held in the Company’s treasury) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(ii) any shares of Company Common Stock held by Parent, Purchaser or any other wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(iii) except as provided in clauses “(i)” and “(ii)” above, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting Company Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price; and

(iv) each share of the Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Purchaser outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) If, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, or if a stock dividend is declared by the Company and a record date with respect to any such event shall occur during such period, then the Offer Price shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action;provided that nothing in this Section 1.8(b) shall be deemed to permit or authorize any party hereto to effect any such change that it is not otherwise authorized or permitted to undertake pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a stockholder of the Company who (A) has demanded appraisal for such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, (B) has properly complied with Section 262 of the DGCL, and (C) has not effectively withdrawn or lost its rights to appraisal (“Dissenting

Company Shares”) shall not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Offer Price pursuant to this Section 1.8. By virtue of the Merger, all Dissenting Company Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and shall represent the right to receive only those rights provided under Section 262 of the DGCL;provided,however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, all Dissenting Company Shares held by a stockholder of the Company who shall have failed to perfect or who shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such stockholder’s right to appraisal under such Section 262 of the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, the right to receive the Offer Price pursuant to Section 1.8(a), without any interest thereon, upon surrender of the Company Stock Certificate(s) ornon-certificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book entry (“Book Entry Shares”) that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock in the manner set forth in Section 1.10. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of, together with copies of, any demand received by the Company for payment of the fair value of any Company Common Stock, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments received by the Company as part of any such demand for dissenter’s rights and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for dissenter’s rights under Delaware law in respect of Dissenting Company Shares. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal rights or settle or offer to settle or compromise any such demands for payment in respect of Dissenting Company Shares.

1.9 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) except as provided in Section 1.8(a)(i) or Section 1.8(a)(ii), all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of Book Entry Shares or of certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except the right to receive the Offer Price as contemplated by Section 1.8; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company Stock Certificate”) or a Book Entry Share is presented to the Paying Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate or Book Entry Share shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.10.

1.10 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to the Company to act as paying agent in the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) and shall enter into an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company with the Paying Agent relating to the services to be performed by the Paying Agent. At the Closing, Parent shall cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to make payments of the Cash Consideration in accordance with Section 1.8(a)(iii). The cash amount so deposited with the Paying Agent is referred to as the “Payment Fund.”

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to the Persons who were record holders of Company Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Parent may reasonably specify and the Company shall reasonably approve prior to the Effective Time (including a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares to the Paying Agent); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates or Book Entry Shares in exchange for the Offer Price. Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate or Book Entry Shares to the Paying Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Paying Agent or Parent: (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate or Book Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive, and the Paying Agent shall (and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to) in exchange therefor transfer from the Payment Fund to such holder the Offer Price that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.8; and (B) the Company Stock Certificate or Book Entry Shares so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.10(b), each Company Stock Certificate and Book Entry Share shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Offer Price as contemplated by Section 1.8. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition to the payment of any Offer Price, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a reasonable and customary indemnification obligation against any claim that may be made against the Paying Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

The Company acknowledges that it and holders of its securities are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement, the CVR Agreement, and the Contemplated Transactions.

1.14 Calculation of Company Net Cash.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, the “Anticipated Offer Closing Date” shall be the anticipated Acceptance Time, as agreed upon by Parent and the Company at least 10 days prior to the Expiration Time or, if Parent and the Company cannot so agree, the then scheduled date of the Expiration Time. At least five days prior to the Anticipated Offer Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a schedule (the “Net Cash Schedule”), in the form set forth as Schedule I of the Company Disclosure Schedule, setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate of Company Net Cash as of the Anticipated Offer Closing Date (the “Net Cash Calculation”), prepared and certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (or if there is no Chief Financial Officer, the Company’s principal accounting officer). The Company shall, during the period from delivery of the Net Cash Schedule until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the Response Date, make available to Parent, or its accountants and/or counsel (in each case upon reasonable notice, at reasonable times and in a manner that does not interfere with the operation of the Company’s business), the work papers andback-up materials used or useful in preparing the Net Cash Schedule, as reasonably requested by Parent.

(b) By 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the third calendar day after delivery of the Net Cash Schedule (the “Response Date”), Parent will have the right to dispute in good faith any part of the Net Cash Schedule by delivering a written notice to that effect to the Company (a “Dispute Notice”). Any Dispute Notice shall identify in reasonable detail the nature and amounts of any proposed revisions to the Net Cash Calculation. A Dispute Notice may only be given if the aggregate amount in dispute is greater than $250,000.

(c) If on or prior to the Response Date, Parent (i) timely notifies the Company in writing that it has no objections to the Net Cash Calculation or (ii) fails to timely deliver a Dispute Notice as provided in Section 1.14(b), then the Net Cash Calculation as set forth in the Net Cash Schedule shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent Company Net Cash at the Closing Date for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) If Parent timely delivers a Dispute Notice on or prior to the Response Date, then Representatives of both parties shall promptly (and in any event within two days following timely delivery of the Dispute Notice) meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed item(s) and negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Company Net Cash, which agreed upon Company Net Cash amount shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Company Net Cash at the Closing Date for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) If Representatives of Parent and the Company are unable to negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Company Net Cash at the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.14(d) by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the third calendar day after delivery of the Dispute Notice (or such other period as Parent and the Company may mutually agree upon in writing), then Grant Thornton LLP, or such other independent auditor of recognized national standing as the Parent and the Company shall jointly select (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve any remaining disagreements as to the Net Cash Calculation. The Company shall promptly deliver to the Accounting Firm the work papers andback-up materials used in preparing the Net Cash Schedule, and Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to make its determination within 10 calendar days after accepting its selection. The Company and Parent shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Accounting Firm;provided, that no such presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a Representative of each of the Company and Parent. In determining the Company Net Cash hereunder, the Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and the Accounting Firm’s authority is limited to resolving disputed issues of fact (and not law). The procedures set forth in this Section 1.14(e) concerning the determination of Company Net Cash hereunder by the Accounting Firm shall be governed by the law of expert determination and appraisal rather than the law of arbitration. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be limited to the disagreements submitted to the Accounting Firm. The determination of the amount of Company Net Cash made by the Accounting Firm shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent Company Net Cash at the Closing Date for purposes of this Agreement, and the parties shall delay the Closing until the resolution of the matters described in this Section 1.14(e) and, if necessary, the End Date shall be deemed extended to allow for such resolution. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Parent and Company in the same proportion that the disputed amount of Company Net Cash that was unsuccessfully disputed by such party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total disputed amount of Company Net Cash (and for the avoidance of doubt the fees and expenses to be paid by the Company shall reduce Company Net Cash). If this Section 1.14(e) applies as to the determination of Company Net Cash at the Anticipated Offer Closing Date, upon resolution of the matter in accordance with this Section 1.14(e), the Company Net Cash as so determined shall be deemed to be the Company Net Cash for all purposes of this Agreement, and shall not be subject to anyre-determination.

1.15 CVR Agreement. At or prior to the Acceptance Time, Parent will authorize and duly adopt, execute and deliver, and will ensure that a duly qualified Rights Agent executes and delivers, the CVR Agreement, subject to any reasonable revisions to the CVR Agreement that are requested by such Rights Agent (provided that such revisions are not, individually or in the aggregate, detrimental to any holder of CVRs).

The provisions of this Section 5.1(b)(ii) shall also apply to any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to such Change in Circumstance and require a new Determination Notice, except that, in the case of material changes to any facts and circumstances relating to such Change in Circumstance, the references to four Business Days shall be deemed to be two Business Days.

(b) From the Acceptance Time until the sixth anniversary of the date on which the Merger becomes effective, the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect, for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons with respect to their acts and omissions as directors and officers of the Company occurring prior to the Effective Time, the existing policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company as of the date of this Agreement in the form delivered or Made Available by the Company to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Existing D&O Policy”), to the extent that, with respect to such Indemnified Persons, such policies are fully prepaid;provided,however, that: (i) the Surviving Corporation may substitute for the Existing D&O Policy a fully prepaid policy or policies of comparable coverage or purchase, at the Company’s expense, a six year “tail policy” for the Existing D&O Policy (the “D&O Tail Policy”); and (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or for any D&O Tail Policy) in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for such insurance (the “Maximum Premium”);provided, that the Company may, at its sole option, purchase a D&O Tail Policy prior to the Acceptance Time. In the event any future annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or any D&O Tail Policy) exceed the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to reduce the amount of coverage of the Existing D&O Policy (or any D&O Tail Policy) to the amount of coverage that can be obtained for a premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(a) by mutual written consent of Parent and the Company;

(b) by either Parent or the Company if a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Body shall have issued a final and nonappealable Order, or shall have taken any other final and nonappealable action, having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting or making illegal the acceptance of Shares in the Offer or the Merger;provided that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if the issuance of such final and nonappealable Order results primarily from the failure on the part of such party to perform any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such party at or prior to the Acceptance Time;

(c) by either Parent or the Company (A) if the Acceptance Time shall not have occurred on or before midnight Eastern Time on the End Date; or (B) the Offer shall have expired or been terminated in accordance with its terms without Purchaser having purchased any Shares pursuant thereto; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill in any material respect any of its obligations under this Agreement has been the primary cause of, or the primary factor that resulted in, the event specified in either of the foregoing clauses (A) or (B);

(d) by Parent (at any time prior to the Acceptance Time) if, whether or not permitted to do so: (i) the Company Board or any committee thereof shall have made a Company Adverse Change in Recommendation; (ii) the Company, Company Board or any committee thereof shall have adopted, approved, recommended, submitted to stockholders, declared advisable, executed or entered into (or resolved, determined or proposed to adopt, approve, recommend, submit to stockholders, declare advisable, execute or enter into) any Alternative Acquisition Agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into pursuant to Section 4.4 or Section 5.1); (iii) following the public disclosure of an

(f) by the Company (at any time prior to the Acceptance Time) in order to, substantially concurrent with such termination, enter into a binding written definitive acquisition agreement providing for the consummation of a transaction constituting a Superior Offer (a “Specified Agreement”), which right may be exercised if, and only if: (i) the Company has not materially breached the requirements of Section 4.4 or Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) with respect to such Superior Offer, (ii) the Company Board shall have authorized the Company to enter into such Specified Agreement and (iii) substantially concurrently with such termination, the Company pays the Termination Fee as provided in Section 8.3(b);

(h) by the Company if: (i) if any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement on the part of Parent or Purchaser shall be inaccurate, or the failure to perform any covenant or obligation in this Agreement on the part of Parent or Purchaser shall have occurred, in each case, if such inaccuracy or failure to perform would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or impair, Parent or Purchaser from consummating any of the Contemplated Transactions or would otherwise have, or would be reasonably likely to have, a Parent Material Adverse

Effect;provided,however, that, (A) for purposes of this paragraph (h), if an inaccuracy in any of Parent’s representations and warranties or a breach of a covenant or obligation by Parent is capable of being cured by the End Date, then the Company may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(h) on account of such inaccuracy or breach unless such inaccuracy or breach shall remain uncured for a period of 30 days commencing on the date that the Company gives Parent notice of such inaccuracy or breach, and (B) the Company may not terminate under this paragraph (h) if the Company is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement; or

(b)

If this Agreement is terminated:

(i)

by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(f);

(ii)

by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d); or

(iii) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c) or Section 8.1(e) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g), and: (A) any Person shall have publicly disclosed an Acquisition Proposal after the date of this Agreement and prior to such termination (unless withdrawn prior to such termination); and (B) within 12 months of such termination the Company shall have consummated an Acquisition Proposal or shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal that is thereafter consummated (provided that for purposes of this clause (B) the references to “15%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”),

then, in any such event under clause “(i)”, “(ii)” or “(iii)” of this Section 8.3(b), the Company shall pay to Parent the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same day funds (x) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(i), prior to or concurrently with the termination of this Agreement and execution of the Specified Agreement, (y) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(ii), within two Business Days after such termination or (z) in the case of Section 8.3(b)(iii), two Business Days after consummation of the Acquisition Proposal referred to in subclause (iii)(B) above;it being understoodthat in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. As used herein, “Termination Fee” means a cash amount equal to $2,040,000. In the event that the Parent shall receive the Termination Fee, the receipt of such fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Parent, the Purchaser, any Parent Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof) or the Contemplated Transactions (and the abandonment thereof), or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of the Parent, the Purchaser, any Parent Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any other claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any Company Affiliates or any Representative of the Company or any Company Affiliates arising out of this Agreement, any of the Contemplated Transactions or any matters forming the basis for such termination;provided,however, that nothing in this Section 8.3(b) shall relieve any party from any liability for intentional common law fraud.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(c), the Company shall reimburse Parent promptly upon demand (but in any event within two Business Days after the date of such demand), by wire transfer of same day funds, any Transaction Expenses (including disbursements and fees of outside legal counsel and outside strategic advisors) incurred by Parent in connection with this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions (“Parent Expenses”);provided that the Parent Expenses shall not exceed $200,000.

(d) The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the Contemplated Transactions and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3, and, in order to obtain the payment, Parent commences a Legal Proceeding which results in a judgment against the Company, the Company shall pay Parent its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees of outside legal counsel) in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount and the Termination Fee or Parent Expenses at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made, plus 2% per annum, through the date such payment was actually received.

This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

(c) No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

9.3 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Acceptance Time.

This Agreement may be executed in separate

counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan, including portable document format (.pdf) delivered by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.5 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Specific Performance; Remedies. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any laws, rules or provisions that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. The parties hereto further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Legal Requirements or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

The Company Disclosure Schedule and Parent Disclosure Schedule shall each be delivered as of the date hereof, and no amendments or modifications thereto shall be made. Any purported update or modification to the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule after the date hereof shall be disregarded. The inclusion of any information in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material, has resulted in or would result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect, or is outside the ordinary course of business.

9.7 [Intentionally Omitted].

9.8 Assignability; No Third Party Rights. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns;provided,however, that neither this Agreement nor any party’s rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by such party without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties shall be void and of no effect.

to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except (i) as specifically provided in Section 5.4 and (ii) after the Effective Time, with respect to the payment of consideration to holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1 hereof.

The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the corporation; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the corporation required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

VI.

The Corporation shall provide indemnification as follows:

1. Actions, Suits and Proceedings Other than by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

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

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

4. Notification and Defense of Claim. As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 4. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her own counsel in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article SIXTH. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article SIXTH for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

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

6. Procedure for Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 1, 2, 3 or 5 of this Article SIXTH, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (i) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 4 of this Article SIXTH (and none of the circumstances described in Section 4 of this Article SIXTH that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred) or (ii) the Corporation determines within such60-day period that Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1, 2 or 5 of this Article SIXTH, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 1 or 2 of this Article SIXTH only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or 2 of this Article SIXTH, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

7. Remedies. The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article SIXTH shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 6 of this Article SIXTH that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by Indemnitee to

enforce a right to indemnification, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article SIXTH. Indemnitee’s expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder it shall be a defense that the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

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

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

10. Other Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article SIXTH shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article SIXTH shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article SIXTH. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article SIXTH.

11. Partial Indemnification. If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article SIXTH to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts

paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.

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

13. Savings Clause. If this Article SIXTH or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article SIXTH that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

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

VII.

The corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon the stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as provided under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”).

Section 5. Annual Meeting.

(a) The annual meeting of the stockholders of the corporation, for the purpose of election of directors and for such other business as may lawfully come before it, shall be held on such date and at such time as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation and the proposal of business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders: (i) pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting of stockholders; (ii) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors; or (iii) by any stockholder of the corporation who was a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in the following paragraph, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complied with the notice procedures set forth in this Section.

(b) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of paragraph (a) of this Section, (i) the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation, (ii) such other business must be a proper matter for stockholder action under the DGCL and applicable law, (iii) if the stockholder, or the beneficial owner on whose behalf any such proposal or nomination is made, has provided the corporation with a Solicitation Notice (as defined in this paragraph), such stockholder or beneficial owner must, in the case of a proposal, have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry any such proposal, or, in the case of a nomination or nominations, have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of a percentage of the corporation’s voting shares reasonably believed by such stockholder or beneficial owner to be sufficient to elect the nominee or nominees proposed to be nominated by such stockholder, and must, in either case, have included in such materials the Solicitation Notice, and (iv) if no Solicitation Notice relating thereto has been timely provided pursuant to this Section, the stockholder or beneficial owner proposing such business or nomination must not have solicited a number of proxies sufficient to have required the delivery of such a Solicitation Notice under this Section. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting;provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth: (A) as to each person whom the stockholder proposed to nominate for election or reelection as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and Rule14a-4(d) thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (B) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (C) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the corporation’s books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class and number of shares of the corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, and (iii) whether either such stockholder or beneficial owner intends to deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of, in the case of the proposal, at least the percentage of the corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry the proposal or, in the case of a nomination or nominations, a sufficient number of holders of the corporation’s voting shares to elect such nominee or nominees (an affirmative statement of such intent, a “Solicitation Notice”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (b) of this Section to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the corporation is increased and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors made by the corporation at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the corporation.

(d) Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section (or elected or appointed pursuant to Article IV of these Bylaws) shall be eligible to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made, or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with these Bylaws, to declare that such defective proposal or nomination shall not be presented for stockholder action at the meeting and shall be disregarded.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, in order to include information with respect to a stockholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a stockholders’ meeting, stockholders must provide notice as required by the regulations promulgated under the 1934 Act. Nothing in these Bylaws shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation proxy statement pursuant to Rule14a-8 under the 1934 Act.

(f) For purposes of this Section, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act.

Section 6. Special Meetings.

(a) Special meetings of the stockholders of the corporation may be called, for any purpose or purposes, by (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chief Executive Officer, (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by directors representing a quorum of the Board of Directors or (iv) by the holders of shares entitled to cast not less than 20% of the votes at the meeting, and shall be held at such place, on such date, and at such time as the Board of Directors shall fix. At any time or times that the corporation is subject to Section 2115(b) of the California General Corporation Law (“CGCL”), stockholders holding 5% or more of the outstanding shares shall have the right to call a special meeting of stockholders as set forth in Section 18(b) of these Bylaws.

(b) If a special meeting is properly called by any person or persons other than the Board of Directors, the request shall be in writing, specifying the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by telegraphic or other facsimile transmission to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Secretary of the corporation. No business may be transacted at such special meeting otherwise than specified in such notice. The Board of Directors shall determine the time and place of such special meeting, which shall be held not less than 35 nor more than 120 days after the date of the receipt of the request. Upon determination of the time and place of the meeting, the officer receiving the request shall cause notice to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of these Bylaws. Nothing contained in this paragraph (b) shall be construed as limiting, fixing, or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the Board of Directors may be held.

Section 7. Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by law, notice, given in writing or by electronic transmission, of each meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, such notice to specify the place, if any, date and hour, in the case of special meetings, the purpose or purposes of the meeting, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at any such meeting. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the corporation. Notice of the time, place, if any, and purpose of any meeting of stockholders may be waived in writing, signed by the person entitled to notice thereof or by electronic transmission by such person, either before or after such meeting, and will be waived by any stockholder by his or her attendance thereat in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy, except when the stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Any stockholder so waiving notice of such meeting shall be bound by the proceedings of any such meeting in all respects as if due notice thereof had been given.

Section 8. Quorum. At all meetings of stockholders, except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the presence, in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy duly authorized, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned, from time to time, either by the chairman of the meeting or by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented thereat, but no other business shall be transacted at such meeting. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote generally

on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors. Where a separate vote by a class or classes or series is required, except where otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or series, present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the majority (plurality, in the case of the election of directors) of shares of such class or classes or series present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class or classes or series.

Section 9. Adjournment and Notice of Adjourned Meetings. Any meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time either by the chairman of the meeting or by the vote of a majority of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, if any, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or applicable law. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Section 10. Voting Rights. For the purpose of determining those stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, only persons in whose names shares stand on the stock records of the corporation on the record date, as provided in Section 12 of these Bylaws, shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Every person entitled to vote or execute consents shall have the right to do so either in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by an agent or agents authorized by a proxy granted in accordance with Delaware law. An agent so appointed need not be a stockholder. No proxy shall be voted after three years from its date of creation unless the proxy provides for a longer period.

Section 11. Joint Owners of Stock. If shares or other securities having voting power stand of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety, or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting (including giving consent pursuant to Section 13) shall have the following effect: (a) if only one votes, his or her act binds all; (b) if more than one votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all; (c) if more than one votes, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionally, or may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery for relief as provided in the DGCL, Section 217(b). If the

instrument filed with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the purpose of subsection (c) shall be a majority or even-split in interest.

Section 12. List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the corporation. In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation. The list shall be open to examination of any stockholder during the time of the meeting as provided by law.

Section 13. Action Without Meeting.

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required by statute to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, or any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, or by electronic transmission setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

(b) Every written consent or electronic transmission shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent or electronic transmission shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the corporation in the manner herein required, written consents or electronic transmissions signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take action are delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

No stockholder, however, shall be entitled to so cumulate such stockholder’s votes unless (i) the names of such candidate or candidates have been placed in nomination prior to the voting and (ii) the stockholder has given notice at the meeting, prior to the voting, of such stockholder’s intention to cumulate such stockholder’s votes. If any stockholder has given proper notice to cumulate votes, all stockholders may cumulate their votes for any candidates who have been properly placed in nomination.

Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified. A vacancy in the Board of Directors shall be deemed to exist under this Bylaw in the case of the death, removal or resignation of any director.

(b) At any time or times that the corporation is subject to Section 2115(b) of the CGCL, if, after the filling of any vacancy, the directors then in office who have been elected by stockholders shall constitute less than a majority of the directors then in office, then

(i) any holder or holders of an aggregate of 5% or more of the total number of shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for those directors may call a special meeting of stockholders; or

(ii) the Superior Court of the proper county shall, upon application of such stockholder or stockholders, summarily order a special meeting of the stockholders, to be held to elect the entire board, all in accordance with Section 305(c) of the CGCL, the term of office of any director shall terminate upon that election of a successor.

Section 20. Removal.

(a) Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the Board of Directors or any director may be removed from office at any time (i) with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of directors or (ii) without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation, entitled to elect such director.

(b) During such time or times that the corporation is subject to Section 2115(b) of the CGCL, the Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office at any time without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on such removal;provided, however, that unless the entire Board is removed, no individual director may be removed when the votes cast against such director’s removal, or not consenting in writing to such removal, would be sufficient to elect that director if voted cumulatively at an election at which the same total number of votes were cast (or, if such action is taken by written consent, all shares entitled to vote were voted) and the entire number of directors authorized at the time of such director’s most recent election were then being elected.

The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within 10 days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within 10 days of the date on which such a request is received, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

(c) In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

The CVR Register will initially show one position for Cede & Co. representing all of the CVRs that are issued to the holders of Shares held by DTC on behalf of the street holders of the Shares. The Rights Agent will have no responsibility whatsoever directly to the street name holders or DTC participants with respect to transfers of CVRs. With respect to any payments to be made under Section 2.4 below, the Rights Agent will accomplish such payment to any former street name holders of the Shares by sending such payments to DTC. The Rights Agent will have no responsibilities whatsoever with regard to the distribution of payments by DTC to such street name holders.

(c) Subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Rights Agent pursuant to its written guidelines, duly executed by the Holder thereof, the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative or the Holder’s survivor, as applicable, and setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances relating to the transfer. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall, subject to its reasonable determination that the transfer instrument is in proper form and the transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the provisions of Section 2.2), register the transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register and notify the Parent of the same. Any registration, transfer or assignment of the CVRs shall be without charge to the Holder (other than payment of a sum to the extent necessary to cover any stamp or other Tax or other governmental charge that is imposed in connection with any such registration, transfer or assignment). All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of Parent and shall entitle the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement as those held immediately prior to the transfer by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR shall be valid unless and until registered in the CVR Register.

(d) A Holder may make a written request to the Rights Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. The written request must be duly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written request, the Rights Agent is hereby authorized to, and shall promptly, record the change of address in the CVR Register.

2.4 Payment Procedures.

(a) If any Milestone is achieved, then, in each case, on a date (a “Milestone Payment Date”) that is within 60 days following the last day of such Calendar Quarter in which such Milestone is achieved:

Holder as reflected in the CVR Register), in accordance with the corresponding letter of instruction (i) by check mailed to the address of such Holder reflected in the CVR Register as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the date of the applicable Milestone Notice or (ii) with respect to any such Holder that is due an amount in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate who has provided the Rights Agent wiring instructions in writing as of the close of business on the date of the Milestone Notice, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified on such instruction.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any portion of the amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.4(b) that remains unclaimed as of the first anniversary of the applicable Milestone Payment Date (including by means of uncashed checks or invalid addresses on the CVR Register) shall be delivered to Parent or its designee and not disbursed to the Holders, and, thereafter, such Holders shall be entitled to look to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof with respect to such cash that may be payable.

(e) If a Milestone is not achieved during any one of the 2021, 2022, 2023 or 2024 Calendar Years, then on or before the date that is 60 days after the expiration of each such applicable Calendar Year period, Parent shall deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate certifying that such Milestone has not occurred, accompanied by a statement setting forth, in reasonable detail, a calculation of Net Sales for the applicable period (each, a “MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate”). The Rights Agent shall promptly, and in any event within 10 Business Days of receipt of a MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate, send each Holder at its registered address a copy of such MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate, including detail regarding the ability of a Holder or Holders to dispute or contest such determination ofnon-achievement of a Milestone pursuant to this Agreement. If the Rights Agent does not receive from the Acting Holders a written objection to (i) a MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate with respect to Milestone 1, if any, within 180 days of the delivery by the Rights Agent of such MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate to the Holders in accordance with this Section 2.4(e), the Holders shall be deemed to have accepted such MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate and Parent and its Affiliates shall have no further obligation with respect to Milestone 1 and the Milestone 1 Amount, and/or (ii) a MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate with respect to Milestone 2 Milestone 3, and/or Milestone 4, if any, within 180 days of the delivery by the Rights Agent of such MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate with respect the 2024 Calendar Year to the Holders in accordance with this Section 2.4(e), the Holders shall be deemed to have accepted such MilestoneNon-Achievement Certificate and Parent and its Affiliates shall have no further obligation with respect to each such Milestone and the applicable Milestone Amount.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments to Holders under this Section 2 exceed the Milestone Cap.

2.5 Withholding. Each of Parent, the Rights Agent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation, their respective Affiliates, and any other Person who has any obligation

to deduct or withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required by any law to be deducted and withheld, as may be reasonably determined by such Person. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and remitted to the appropriate Governmental Body in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.6 Adjustment of CVRs.

(a) In case of any Change of Control, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights and interests of Holders so that the provisions set forth herein shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, in relation to any cash thereafter deliverable upon payment of CVRs.

The Rights Agent shall promptly, and in any event within 10 Business Days of receipt of such a notice, send each Holder a copy of such notice in accordance with Section 7.2.

(c) The Rights Agent has no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Section 2.6 should be made, how it should be made or what it should be. The Rights Agent shall not be responsible for the Parent’s failure to comply with this Section 2.6.

2.7 Notices to CVR Holders. Upon any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6, Parent shall give prompt written notice of such adjustment to the Rights Agent and shall cause the Rights Agent, on behalf of and at the expense of Parent, within 10 days after notification is received by the Rights Agent of such adjustment, to mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice of such adjustment(s) and shall deliver to the Rights Agent a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Parent, setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the terms of such adjustment(s), (ii) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment(s) and (iii) the computation by which such adjustment(s) was made. Where appropriate, such notice by Parent may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice to the Holders required under the other provisions of this Section 2.7.

All funds received by the Rights Agent under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by the Rights Agent in the performance of services hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by the Rights Agent as agent for Parent and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by the Rights Agent in its name as agent for Parent. Until paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Rights Agent will hold the Funds through such accounts in: deposit accounts of commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion or with an average rating above investment grade by S&P (LT Local Issuer Credit Rating), Moody’s (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc.

Agent in accordance with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party;providedthat in the event the Funds are diminished below the level required for the Rights Agent to make cash payments as required under this Agreement, including any such diminishment as a result of investment losses, Parent shall promptly pay additional cash to the Rights Agent in an amount equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments. The Rights Agent may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits. The Rights Agent shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Parent, any Holder or any other Person, unless there is a diminution of the Funds due to a deposit or investment made by the Rights Agent, in which case, the Rights Agent agrees that such interest, dividends or earnings shall accrue to the benefit of Parent to the extent of such diminution of the Funds.

2.9 No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest.

(a) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon any Holder, by virtue of being a Holder of a CVR, the right to receive dividends or the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of Parent or any constituent company to the Merger or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any other matter, or any other rights of any kind or nature whatsoever as a stockholder of Parent or in any constituent company to the Merger or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, either at law or in equity.

2.10 Ability to Abandon CVR. A Holder may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a CVR by transferring such CVR to Parent or any of its Affiliates without consideration therefor. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent or any of its Affiliates from offering to acquire or acquiring any CVRs for consideration from the Holders, in private transactions or otherwise, in its sole discretion. Any CVRs acquired by Parent or any of its Affiliates shall be automatically deemed extinguished and no longer outstanding for purposes of the definition of Acting Holders and Section 5 and Section 6.

Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall give to any Person (other than the Rights Agent and its permitted successors and assigns, Parent, Parent’s permitted successors and assignees, and the Holders and the Holders’ successors and assigns pursuant to Permitted Transfers, each of whom is intended to be, and is, a third party beneficiary hereunder) any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the Rights Agent and its permitted successors and assigns, Parent, Parent’s permitted successors and assignees, and the Holders and the Holders’ successors and assigns pursuant to Permitted Transfers. The rights hereunder of Holders and their successors and assigns pursuant to Permitted Transfers are limited to those expressly

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Holder or Holder’s successor or assign pursuant to a Permitted Transfer may at any time agree to renounce, in whole or in part, whether or not for consideration, its rights under this Agreement by written notice to the Rights Agent and Parent, which notice, if given, shall be irrevocable, and Parent may, in its sole discretion, at any time offer consideration to Holders in exchange for their agreement to irrevocably renounce their rights, in whole or in part, hereunder.

7.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement, the CVRs and all actions arising under or in connection herewith and therewith (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any laws, rules or provisions that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

7.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

7.7 Termination. This Agreement shall be terminated and of no force or effect, the parties hereto shall have no liability hereunder (other than with respect to monies due and owing by Parent to Rights Agent), and no payments shall be required to be made, upon the earlier to occur of (a) the payment in full of the Milestone 1 Amount, the Milestone 2 Amount and the Milestone 3 Amount, by the mailing by the Rights Agent to the address of each Holder as reflected in the CVR Register the full amount of each Milestone Amount as required to be paid under the terms of this Agreement, (b) December 31, 2024, if Milestone 2 and/or Milestone 3 has not been achieved on or prior to such date, and (c) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by PDF shall be sufficient to bind the parties hereto to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(a) immediately prior tothe-then scheduled expiration of the Offer, the number of shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, together with any shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, equals at least one share more than 50% of all shares of Company Common Stock then outstanding (treating, for these purposes Company RSUs and Company PRSUs as outstanding) (the “Minimum Condition”), provided that for purposes of determining whether the Minimum Condition has been satisfied, the parties shall exclude Shares tendered in the Offer pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received” (as such term is defined in Section 251(h) (6)(f) of the DGCL); and

(b) no Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any order, executive order, temporary restraining order, stay, decree, judgment or injunction (preliminary or permanent) or statute, rule or regulation which has the effect of prohibiting the consummation of the Offer or making the Offer or the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Offer or the Merger, nor shall any Legal Requirement have been promulgated, enacted, issued, or deemed applicable to the Offer or the Merger by any Governmental Body which prohibits or makes illegal the acquisition of or payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer or the consummation of the Merger; and

(d) the Company shall have complied with or performed in all material respects the obligations, covenants and agreements under the Agreement it is required to comply with or perform at or prior to the Acceptance Time; and

(e) (i) the Company Designated Representations shall be accurate in all material respects as of the expiration of the Offer as though made on and as of the expiration of the Offer (except for any such representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall have been accurate in all material respects as of such date);provided,however, that, for purposes of determining the accuracy of such representations and warranties as of the foregoing dates, (1) all materiality qualifications limiting the scope of such representations and warranties shall be disregarded and (2) unless Parent shall have otherwise consented, any update of or modification to the Company Disclosure Schedule made or purported to have been made on or after the date of this Agreement shall be disregarded; and

(ii) the Company Capitalization Representations shall be accurate in all respects as of the expiration of the Offer as though made on and as of the expiration of the Offer (except for any such representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall have been true and correct in all respects as of such date), except to the extent the failures of the Company Capitalization Representations to be true and correct in all respects individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to result in an increase in the aggregate value of the consideration payable by Parent in connection with the Merger of more than $325,000 in the aggregate, as compared to what such aggregate amount would have been if such representations and warranties had been true and correct in all respects; and

(iii) each of the representations and warranties of the Company (other than the Company Designated Representations and the Company Capitalization Representations) shall be accurate in all respects as of the expiration of the Offer (except for any such representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall have been accurate in all respects as of such date);provided,however, that: (1) for purposes of determining the accuracy of such representations and warranties as of the foregoing dates: (A) all materiality qualifications limiting the scope of such representations and warranties shall be disregarded; and (B) unless Parent shall have otherwise consented, any update of or modification to the Company Disclosure Schedule made or purported to have been made on or after the date of this Agreement shall be disregarded; and (2) any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties will be disregarded if all such inaccuracies (considered collectively) do not constitute a Company Material Adverse Effect; and

(f) Parent and Purchaser shall have received a certificate of an executive officer of the Company, dated as of the scheduled Expiration Time, to the effect that the conditions set forth in clauses (d) and (e) have been satisfied; and

(g) as of the Expiration Time, the Company Net Cash (determined in accordance with Section 1.14) is equal to or greater than $0; and

(i) there shall not be pending any Legal Proceeding in which a Governmental Body is a party: (i) challenging or seeking to restrain, prohibit, rescind or unwind the Offer or the Merger; (ii) seeking to prohibit or limit in any material respect Parent’s ability to vote, transfer, receive dividends with respect to or otherwise exercise ownership rights with respect to the stock of the Surviving Corporation; (iii) relating to the Offer or the Merger and that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the right or ability of Parent to own any of the material assets or materially limit the operation of the business of the Tetraphase Companies, taken as a whole; (iv) seeking to compel any of the Tetraphase Companies, Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent to dispose of or hold separate any material assets or material business as a result of the Offer or the Merger; or (v) relating to the Offer or the Merger and seeking to impose (or that would reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of) any criminal sanctions or criminal liability on Parent or any of the Tetraphase Companies.

The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the right of Parent and Purchaser to extend, terminate or modify the Offer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement. The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Parent and Purchaser, and may be asserted by Parent or Purchaser regardless of the circumstances giving rise to such condition. All conditions (except for the Minimum Condition) may be waived by Parent or Purchaser in their sole discretion in whole or in part at any applicable time or from time to time, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The failure of Parent or Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time.
