Risks Related to the Proposed Transaction with Compass

The Merger is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, some or all of which may not be satisfied, on a timely basis or at all. Failure to complete the Merger could have material adverse effects on the Company.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by all parties, to the extent permissible under applicable law) of a number of conditions as specified in the Merger Agreement. These closing conditions include, among other things, (1) (A) adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders and (B) approval of the issuance of Compass stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement by Compass stockholders, (2) authorization for listing on the NYSE of the shares of Compass Class A common stock to be issued in the Merger, subject to official notice of issuance, (3) receipt of specified governmental consents and approvals and the termination or expiration of all applicable waiting periods in respect thereof, (4) effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 for the shares of Compass Class A common stock to be issued in the Merger, and (5) the absence of any order, decree, ruling, injunction or other action preventing the completion of the Merger or making the completion of the Merger illegal. The obligations of each of Compass and the Company to consummate the Merger are also conditioned on, among other things, the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the other party on the date of the Merger Agreement and on the closing date (subject to certain materiality and material adverse effect qualifiers), and the performance by the other party in all material respects of its obligations under the Merger Agreement. The failure to satisfy all of the required conditions could delay the completion of the Merger for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring at all. There can be no assurance that the conditions to the completion of the Merger will be satisfied or waived or that the Merger will be completed.
