| **Item 1.01.** | **Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**  |

---

On June 14, 2026, Fox Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("FOX"), Falcon Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of FOX ("Merger Sub 1"), Falcon Merger Sub 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of FOX ("Merger Sub 2" and, together with Merger Sub 1, the "Merger Subs"), and Roku, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Roku" or the "Company"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into the Company (the "First Merger"), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation") and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of FOX, and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, and as the second step in a single integrated transaction with the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub 2 (the "Second Merger" and, together with the First Merger, the "Mergers"), with Merger Sub 2 continuing as the surviving entity (the "Surviving Company") and a wholly owned subsidiary of FOX.

*Merger Consideration* 

At the effective time of the First Merger (the "Effective Time"), subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the "Company Class A Common Stock") and each share of Class B Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the "Company Class B Common Stock", and together with the Company Class A Common Stock, the "Company Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares and shares as to which appraisal rights have been properly exercised) will be converted into the right to receive (i) 0.9693 of a share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of FOX ("FOX Class A Common Stock") (the "Exchange Ratio"), together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares, without interest, and (ii) $96.00 in cash, without interest (the "Per Share Cash Amount").

The Merger Agreement provides that the exchange ratio will be increased and the cash consideration will be correspondingly decreased if needed to account for any dissenting shares such that the value of the FOX Class A Common Stock to be issued equals 40% of the aggregate value of the merger consideration.

At the Effective Time, (i) all vested restricted stock units and vested in-the-money options outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time relating to shares of Company Common Stock will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the merger consideration, without interest (and, in the case of options, reduced by the applicable per share exercise price), (ii) all unvested Company restricted stock units outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest and subject to applicable withholding, (x) a cash award entitling the holder to receive, a payment (payable in cash or FOX Class A Common Stock, at FOX's election) equal to the Per Share Cash Amount and (y) an award of restricted stock units denominated in shares of FOX Class A Common Stock based on the Exchange Ratio, in each case, subject to the same vesting schedule, and (iii) all unvested Company options outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest and subject to applicable withholding, (x) a cash award entitling the holder to receive, subject to the same vesting schedule, a payment (payable in cash or FOX Class A Common Stock, at FOX's election) equal to the Per Share Cash Amount, less a proportionate amount of the applicable exercise price and (y) an option to purchase a number of shares of FOX Class A Common Stock based on the Exchange Ratio (with an exercise price equal to the proportionately adjusted exercise price with respect to the original Company option), in each case, on the same vesting schedule.

*Post-Closing Governance* 

FOX has agreed to add one individual, designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to FOX, to the Board of Directors of FOX in connection with the closing of the Mergers.

*Representations, Warranties and Covenants* 

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of FOX and the Company relating to their respective businesses and public filings, in each case, generally subject to materiality qualifiers. Additionally, the Merger Agreement provides for customary pre-closing covenants of the Company, including covenants relating to conducting its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and refraining from taking certain actions during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Closing without FOX's consent.

------

The parties have agreed to use their respective reasonable best efforts to do all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including making filings and seeking approvals from certain governmental entities under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and other antitrust and investment screening laws. In furtherance thereof, FOX has agreed, if required and subject to limitations to make divestitures of Roku assets and to accept certain restrictions and limitations on FOX's or Roku's business operations.

Each of the Company and FOX has also agreed not to solicit alternative transactions or, subject to certain exceptions, to enter into discussions concerning, or provide information in connection with, alternative transactions. Prior to obtaining the requisite approval of its stockholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the boards of directors of the Company and FOX, as applicable, may change their recommendation in response to an unsolicited proposal for an alternative transaction, if the respective board of directors determines that the proposal constitutes a "Company Superior Proposal" or a "Parent Superior Proposal" (each, as defined in the Merger Agreement), as applicable, or in certain circumstances involving an intervening event, subject to complying with specified notice and other conditions, including affording the other party a period of at least five business days (and at least three business days in the case of certain amendments) to propose revisions to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

*Conditions* 

Consummation of the Mergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by FOX in connection with the issuance of FOX Class A Common Stock pursuant to the First Merger (the "Stock Issuance"); (ii) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the requisite vote of the Company's stockholders (the "Company Stockholder Approval") and the approval of the Stock Issuance by the requisite vote of the holders of Class B Common Stock of FOX (the "FOX Stockholder Approval"); (iii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the receipt of specified other antitrust and investment screening law approvals; (iv) the absence of any law or order prohibiting consummation of the Mergers or litigation seeking any such order under certain antitrust or investment screening laws; (v) the approval for listing on Nasdaq of the shares of FOX Class A Common Stock to be issued in the First Merger; and (vi) the accuracy of the other party's representations and warranties and performance of its covenants, in each case subject to specified materiality standards, and the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the other party.

*Termination and Termination Fees* 

The Merger Agreement contains customary mutual termination rights for both FOX and the Company, including if the Mergers have not been consummated by June 14, 2027 (subject to automatic extension to December 14, 2027 and, in the event of certain pending proceedings, to March 14, 2028 under specified circumstances if regulatory related closing conditions remain outstanding), and if the Company Stockholder Approval or the FOX Stockholder Approval is not obtained at the applicable stockholder meeting. In addition, the Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights for the benefit of each party, including if (i) the board of directors of the other party changes its recommendation, and (ii) if the other party breaches its representations, warranties or covenants under the Merger Agreement in a way that would result in a failure of its condition to closing being satisfied (subject to certain procedures and cure periods). Prior to receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval or FOX Stockholder Approval, each party may also terminate the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances to enter into an agreement providing for a Company Superior Proposal or Parent Superior Proposal, as applicable, that did not result from any breach of the non-solicitation provisions or other material breach of the Merger Agreement, subject to paying the Termination Fee described below.

------

Under the Merger Agreement, FOX and the Company will each be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $866,084,000 (the "Termination Fee") if the Merger Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, including if the Merger Agreement is terminated because its board of directors has changed its recommendation. In addition, upon termination under specified circumstances relating to the failure to obtain certain required antitrust or investment screening law approvals or the entry of a related order, FOX will be required to pay the Company a regulatory termination fee of $1,237,262,000. If the Merger Agreement is terminated because the requisite approval of Fox stockholders is not obtained, Fox will be required to reimburse the Company's fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement up to $70,000,000 in the aggregate.

In connection with the Merger Agreement, FOX entered into a commitment letter with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. pursuant to which Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. has committed to provide, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $12 billion.

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

*Voting Agreement* 

On June 14, 2026, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, FOX entered into a voting and support agreement (the "Voting Agreement") with Anthony Wood, the Company's founder and Chief Executive Officer, together with his spouse and certain trusts controlled by them (collectively, the "Supporting Stockholders"). Shares of Company Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by the Supporting Stockholders and subject to the Voting Agreement represent approximately 55% of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of June 11, 2026. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, each Supporting Stockholder has agreed, among other things, unless there has been a Company Change in Recommendation (as defined in the Merger Agreement), to vote (or cause to be voted) all shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by it (i) in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated thereby, and any proposal to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting in furtherance thereof, and (ii) against any alternative acquisition proposal and any other action that would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with or adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each Supporting Stockholder has also agreed, subject to specified exceptions, not to transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any shares of Company Common Stock prior to receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval (or to enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding wither respect thereto), not to convert shares of Company Class B Common Stock into shares of Company Class A Common Stock, and not to take any action that, if taken by the Company, would violate the Company's non-solicitation obligations in the Merger Agreement. The voting obligations of the Supporting Stockholders are suspended for so long as the Board of Directors of the Company has made, and not rescinded or withdrawn, a Company Change in Recommendation.

------

The Voting Agreement will terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (ii) the effective time of the Mergers, and (iii) certain amendments to, or waivers or modifications of, the Merger Agreement that reduce the amount, or change the form (other than specified increases in the cash portion), of the Merger Consideration payable to a Supporting Stockholder or that are otherwise material and adverse to a Supporting Stockholder, in each case made without such stockholder's prior written consent.

The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, concurrently with entry into the Merger Agreement, LGC Holdco, LLC and its sole manager, Cruden 2, LLC, on behalf of trusts associated with Lachlan Murdoch and certain of his siblings, entered into a reciprocal voting and support agreement with Roku, pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, LGC Holdco and Cruden 2 agreed to vote all shares of FOX Class B Common Stock owned by them (representing approximately 38.7% of the voting power of the FOX common stock entitled to vote) in favor of the Stock Issuance.

*Additional Information* 

The Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement have been included to provide investors with information regarding their terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about FOX, the Company or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement and Voting Agreement, respectively, and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to each agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement or the Voting Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties thereto or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement and/or Voting Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in FOX public disclosures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) If any Dissenting Shares lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, effective as of the later of the Effective Time and the date of loss of such status, such shares will be deemed automatically to have been converted into, and shall represent only, the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u>, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Company Stock Certificate representing such shares or, if such shares are Uncertificated Company Shares, upon compliance with the procedures established by the Exchange Agent for the transfer of such Uncertificated Company Shares, in each case in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.03</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) The Company shall give Parent: (1) prompt written notice of any demand (and copies of any demand) for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other communication, demand, notice or instrument (and copies of such other demand, notice or instrument or a summary of any such communication) delivered to or received by the Company prior to the Effective Time relating to any demand for appraisal; and (2) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument relating to any demand for appraisal. The Company shall not make any payment, compromise or settlement offer (or agree to any of the foregoing) prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument unless Parent has given its prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such payment or settlement offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) If the aggregate value (determined in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>5.19(f)</u>) of all shares of Parent Class A Common Stock that would be issued pursuant to the Mergers (other than shares issued to a Subsidiary of the Company or a Subsidiary of Parent) is less than 40% of the sum of (i) the aggregate value of the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than in respect of Dissenting Shares) will be converted pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u>, and (ii) the aggregate value of the Merger Consideration that would have become payable in respect of

------

any Dissenting Shares pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u> if such shares were not Dissenting Shares (the sum of clauses (i) and (ii), the "<u>Grossed-Up Merger Consideration</u>"), then the Exchange Ratio will be increased and the Per Share Cash Amount will be correspondingly decreased, until the aggregate value (determined in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>5.19(f)</u>) of all shares of Parent Class A Common Stock to be issued as a result of the conversion of the Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u> (excluding any Dissenting Shares) equals 40% of the Grossed-Up Merger Consideration. For purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(iv)(D)</u>, the value of the Parent Class A Common Stock, determined in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>5.19(f)</u>, shall be equal to $66.03, and the parties agree that this <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(iv)(D)</u> is intended to cause this Agreement to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations section 1.368-1(e) (treating 40% as a "substantial part" for such purposes) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

Section 2.02 <u>Treatment of Company Equity Awards and Equity Plans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Vested Company RSUs</u>. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each vested Company RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a "<u>Vested Company RSU</u>") shall be cancelled and be automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding under applicable Tax Law in accordance with Section 2.03(ix), the Merger Consideration (in accordance with Section 2.03(i)-(iv)) in respect of each share of Company Common Stock that was subject to such Vested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "<u>Vested Company RSU Consideration</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Unvested Company RSUs</u>. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each Company RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is not a Vested Company RSU (each, an "<u>Unvested Company RSU</u>") shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive (1) a Converted RSU Cash Award and (2) a Converted RSU Equity Award as set forth below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) Each Converted RSU Cash Award shall provide the holder with the right to receive a payment in respect of each share of Company Common Stock that was subject to the applicable Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time equal to the Per Share Cash Amount (a "<u>Converted RSU Cash Award</u>"). The Converted RSU Cash Award shall be subject to the same vesting schedule that was applicable to such Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any contractual acceleration rights that would have otherwise applied to such Unvested Company RSU shall apply to the Converted RSU Cash Award). Each Converted RSU Cash Award shall be payable by Parent on the date that such Unvested Company RSU would have become vested pursuant to the vesting schedule in place for such Unvested Company RSUs immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall make all such required payments to holders of Converted RSU Cash Awards no later than 30 days following the date on which such Converted RSU Cash Award would have become vested under the original vesting schedule (such date on which the Converted RSU Cash Award is paid, the "<u>RSU Payment Date</u>"). Payment of the Converted RSU Cash Award shall be made in the form of cash or Parent Class A Common Stock, or a combination thereof, as determined by Parent in its sole discretion, with the value of the Parent Class A Common Stock determined based on the closing trading price of Parent Class A Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the RSU Payment Date. All amounts payable pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.02(ii)(A)</u> shall be subject to deduction for any required withholding under applicable Tax Law. To the extent any Converted RSU Cash Award is settled in Parent Class A Common Stock, Parent shall satisfy any required withholding under applicable Tax Law through either net share withholding or Parent shall permit the holder to elect a sale-to-cover transaction pursuant to which such number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock otherwise deliverable in settlement of such Converted RSU Cash Award as is necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be sold and the proceeds thereof remitted to the applicable taxing authorities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) Each Converted RSU Equity Award shall be an award of restricted stock units that shall provide the holder with the right to receive a number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock equal to the product of (rounded to the nearest whole number of shares): (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time *multiplied by* (ii) the Exchange Ratio (a "<u>Converted RSU Equity Award</u>"). Each Converted RSU Equity Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Parent Stock Plan provided that the applicable vesting schedule, and any contractual acceleration rights that would have otherwise applied to such Unvested Company RSU shall apply to such Converted RSU Equity Award.

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each In-the-Money Company Option that is vested, outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a "<u>Vested In-the-Money Company Option</u>") shall be cancelled and be automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding under applicable Tax Law in accordance with Section 2.03(ix), for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested In-the-Money Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration (in accordance with Section 2.03(i)-(iv)) reduced by the applicable per share exercise price for such Vested In-the-Money Company Option, which shall be paid in the same proportion of Parent Class A Common Stock and cash as the Merger Consideration (the "<u>Vested Company Option Consideration</u>"). Any fractional shares resulting from such calculation shall be treated in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(v)</u>. The value of Merger Consideration for purposes of determining the Vested Company Option Consideration shall be determined based on the closing trading price of Parent Class A Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) <u>Out-of-the-Money Company Options</u>. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each Out-of-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled as of the Effective Time for no consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Unvested Company Options</u>. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each Company Option that is unvested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an "<u>Unvested Company Option</u>") shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive (1) a Converted Option Cash Award and (2) a Converted Option Equity Award as set forth below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) Each Converted Option Cash Award shall provide the holder with the right to receive a payment in respect of each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time equal to (i) the Per Share Cash Amount *minus* (ii) the product of (x) the applicable exercise price per share of such Unvested Company Option and (y) the Cash Consideration Ratio (a "<u>Converted Option Cash Award</u>"). The Converted Option Cash Award shall be subject to the same vesting schedule that was applicable to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any contractual acceleration rights that would otherwise have applied to such Unvested Company Option shall continue to apply to the Converted Option Cash Award following the Effective Time). Each Converted Option Cash Award shall be payable by Parent on the date that such Unvested Company Option would have become vested pursuant to the vesting schedule applicable to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall make all such required payments to holders of Converted Option Cash Awards no later than 30 days following the date on which such Converted Option Cash Award would have become vested under the original vesting schedule (such date on which the Converted Option Cash Award is paid, the "<u>Option Payment Date</u>"). Payment of the Converted Option Cash Award shall be made in the form of cash or Parent Class A Common Stock, or a combination thereof, as determined by Parent in its sole discretion, with the value of the Parent Class A Common Stock determined based on the closing trading price of Parent Class A Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the Option Payment Date. All amounts payable pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.02(iv)(A)</u> shall be subject to deduction for any required withholding under applicable Tax Law. To the extent any Converted Option Cash Award is settled in Parent Class A Common Stock, Parent shall satisfy any required withholding under applicable Tax Law through either net share withholding or Parent shall permit the holder to elect a sale-to-cover transaction pursuant to which such number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock otherwise deliverable in settlement of such Converted Option Cash Award as is necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be sold and the proceeds thereof remitted to the applicable taxing authorities.

Each Converted Option Equity Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Parent Stock Plan provided that the applicable vesting schedule and any contractual acceleration rights that would otherwise have applied to the applicable Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time shall apply to such Converted Option Equity Award. The exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to such Converted Option Equity Award shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Sections 409A and 424 of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Company ESPP</u>.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall provide Parent with a copy of any and all resolutions or other corporate action (the form and substance of which shall be subject to prior reasonable review and comment by Parent, which reasonable comments the Company shall incorporate) adopted in connection with the Equity Actions.

Section 2.03 <u>Exchange of Shares and Certificates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Exchange Agent</u>. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate an exchange agent (the "<u>Exchange Agent</u>") for the purpose of exchanging, in accordance with this <u>Article II</u>, Certificates and Book-Entry Shares (each as defined below) for the Merger Consideration. In addition, at or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock (i) cash and (ii) evidence of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock to be issued in non-certificated book-entry form, in each case in amounts sufficient to deliver the Merger Consideration (such cash and shares, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, hereinafter, the "<u>Exchange Fund</u>") required to be delivered to holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u>. The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration to be issued pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u> out of the Exchange Fund.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Exchange Procedures</u>. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u>, as applicable: (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as determined by Parent); and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration. Surrender of any Book-Entry Shares shall be effected in accordance with the Exchange Agent's customary procedures with respect to securities represented by book entry. Upon surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry

------

Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that amount of Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this <u>Article II</u>, without interest, and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If any portion of the applicable Merger Consideration is to be paid to or registered in the name of a person other than the person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration or payment of such Merger Consideration that the surrendered Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred and the person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of such registration in the name of a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this <u>Section</u> <u>2.03</u>, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the applicable Merger Consideration as contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>2.01(i)(C)</u>. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue for the benefit of holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the applicable Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares</u>. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Class A Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to any shares of Parent Class A Common Stock represented thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(v)</u>, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (subject to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(x)</u>) or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this <u>Article II</u>. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (subject to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(x)</u>) or Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, (1) the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(v)</u> and (2) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and theretofore payable with respect to such shares of Parent Class A Common Stock and not paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock</u>. All Merger Consideration issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this <u>Article II</u> shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation (or any register of members or similar of the Surviving Company) of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Parent or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this <u>Article II</u>, except as otherwise provided by Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Fractional Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) No fraction of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock shall be issued to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in connection with the Mergers, and no certificates, book entries or scrip for any such fractional share or interest therein shall be issued to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares nor shall they entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights as a stockholder of Parent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a whole number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock equal to the sum of all fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock that would have been issued pursuant to the Mergers in the absence of Section 2.03(v)(A), rounded up to the next whole number of shares if applicable, shall be issued to the Exchange Agent on behalf of the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock (after aggregating all shares of Parent Class A Common Stock issuable to such holder hereunder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share, upon surrender of such holder's Certificate(s) (subject to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(x)</u>) or the transfer of such holder's Book-Entry Shares, be paid in cash, without interest, an amount equal to such fraction determined as follows: As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (i) the sum of the number of full shares of Parent Class A Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent for issuance to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and the number of full shares of Parent Class A Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent

------

pursuant to the first sentence of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(v)(B)</u> over (ii) the aggregate number of full shares of Parent Class A Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (such excess being herein referred to as the "Excess Shares"). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for such holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, shall sell the Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on the Nasdaq, all in the manner provided herein in clause (C) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the Nasdaq and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the net proceeds of any such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for such holders. The net proceeds of any such sale or sales of Excess Shares to be distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be reduced by any and all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, as well as any expenses, of the Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale or sales. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of such net proceeds to which each holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares then held by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with respect to any fractional share interests, the Exchange Agent shall promptly pay such amounts to such holders subject to and in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(v)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) <u>Return of Merger Consideration</u>. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.03(i)</u> that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this <u>Article II</u> shall thereafter be entitled to look only to Parent for payment of their claim for any Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock) and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Class A Common Stock upon due surrender of the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) <u>No Liability</u>. None of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to seven (7) years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock) or any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Class A Common Stock in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) <u>Investment of Merger Consideration</u>. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; <u>provided</u>, that no losses on such investments shall affect the cash payable to former holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to this <u>Article II</u>. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) <u>Withholding Rights</u>. Each of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent, and their respective agents, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, 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.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) <u>Lost Certificates</u>. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock, and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of Parent Class A Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.04 <u>Certain Adjustments</u>. If between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Parent Class A Common Stock or, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>5.01</u>, Company Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange or conversion of shares, dividend payable in stock or other securities or other similar transaction, the Exchange Ratio and, only in the event of any such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange or conversion, dividend or similar transaction with respect to the Company Common Stock, the Per Share Cash Amount, and related provisions shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange or conversion, dividend or other similar transaction. Nothing in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.04</u> shall be construed to permit any party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 2.05 <u>Further Assurances</u>. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors or managers, as applicable, of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of Parent or the Company, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf thereof, any and all other actions and things necessary or advisable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in Parent or the Surviving Company, as applicable, any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by Parent or the Surviving Company, as applicable, as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

Section 2.06 <u>Governance of Parent</u>. After the date hereof and prior to the Closing, the Company shall be permitted to designate an additional member of the Board of Directors of Parent, who shall be reasonably acceptable to Parent (the "<u>Company Designee</u>").

In the event that prior to the Effective Time, the Company Designee is unable or unwilling to serve on the Board of Directors of Parent, the Company shall select a replacement for such individual to serve in such person's place (which replacement must be reasonably acceptable to Parent), and such replacement individual shall become the "Company Designee".

Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Parent in its filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded and reported on a timely basis to the individuals responsible for the preparation of Parent's filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act. Parent maintains internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15, as applicable, under the Exchange Act). Such internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Parent has disclosed, based on the most recent evaluation of its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer prior to the date of this Agreement, to Parent's auditors and the audit committee of Parent's Board of Directors (x) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of its internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect Parent's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Parent's internal control over financial reporting. Parent has made available prior to the date of this Agreement to the Company (I) either materials relating to or a summary of any disclosure of matters described in clauses (x) or (y) in the preceding sentence made by management of Parent to its auditors and audit committee on or after the Applicable Date and prior to the date of this Agreement and (II) any material communication on or after the Applicable Date and prior to the date of this Agreement made by management of Parent or its auditors to the audit committee as required by the listing standards of Nasdaq, the audit committee's charter or professional standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Since the Applicable Date and prior to the date of this Agreement, no complaints from any source regarding a material violation of accounting procedures, internal accounting controls or auditing matters or compliance with Law, including from employees of Parent or its Subsidiaries regarding questionable accounting, auditing or legal compliance matters have, to the Knowledge of Parent, been received by Parent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each of the consolidated balance sheets included in or incorporated by reference into the Parent Reports (including the related notes and schedules) fairly presents or, in the case of Parent Reports filed after the date of this Agreement, will fairly present, in each case, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Parent and its Subsidiaries, as of the date of such balance sheet, and each of the consolidated statements of income, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) included in or incorporated by reference into the Parent Reports (including any related notes and schedules) fairly presents, or, in the case of Parent Reports filed after the date of this Agreement, will fairly present, in each case, in all material respects, the results of operations, retained earnings (loss) and changes in financial position, as the case may be, of Parent and its Subsidiaries for the periods set forth therein (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to notes and normal year-end audit adjustments that are not or will not be material in amount or effect), in each case in accordance with GAAP consistently applied during the periods involved, except as may be noted therein or in the notes thereto.

Section 4.06 <u>Absence of Certain Changes</u>. Since the date of the Parent Most Recent Balance Sheet, and through the date of this Agreement, there has not been any change, effect, circumstance or development which has had or would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the Parent Most Recent Balance Sheet, and through the date of this Agreement, except for the Transactions and for normal semi-annual cash dividends on the Parent Common Stock consistent with past practice (including increases consistent with past practice), Parent has not declared, set aside or paid any dividend or distribution payable in cash, stock or property in respect of any capital stock.

None of Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of, or has since the Applicable Date violated, any applicable Law or Order, except for such violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. To the Knowledge of Parent, as of the date of this Agreement, no investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is pending or threatened, nor has any Governmental Entity indicated an intention to conduct the same, except for such investigations or reviews the outcome of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

As of the date hereof, no event has occurred or circumstance exists which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to (i) constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent or, to the Knowledge of Parent, any of the other parties thereto, under the Commitment Letter, (ii) constitute a failure to satisfy a condition on the part of Parent or, to the Knowledge of Parent, any of the Committed Financing Sources party thereto required to be satisfied prior to the date hereof or (iii) result in any portion of the amounts to be funded in accordance with the Commitment Letter being unavailable on the Closing Date.

After providing such notice and prior to effecting such Company Change in Recommendation and/or Company Superior Proposal Termination, (x) the Company shall and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, during such five (5) business day period, negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives, to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate, with respect to any revisions to the terms of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent, and (y) in order to make a Company Change in Recommendation and/or effect a Company Superior Proposal Termination, the Board of Directors of the Company shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent and any other information provided by Parent in response to such notice during such five (5) business day period and must determine in good faith, in consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that, with respect to a Company Superior Proposal, such Company Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Company Superior Proposal and, with respect to either a Company Superior Proposal or a Company Intervening Event, the failure to make such Company Change in Recommendation and/or effect a Company Superior Proposal Termination (as applicable) would be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Any amendment to the financial terms or conditions or other material terms of any Company Acquisition Proposal or any material modifications or developments with respect to a Company Intervening Event will be deemed to be a new Company Acquisition Proposal or a new Company Intervening Event, respectively, for purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.02(f)</u>, including with respect to the notice period referred to in this <u>Section</u> <u>5.02(f)</u>, except that the five (5) business day period shall be three (3) business days for such purposes in any such case, and the Company shall be required to provide Parent with a new notice describing any such amendments, modifications or developments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Limits on Release of Standstill and Confidentiality</u>. From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the Company shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any "standstill" or similar obligation to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party and shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including by seeking injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be permitted to terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any "standstill" or similar obligation of any Person if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; <u>provided</u> that the Company promptly provides written notice to Parent that it intends to take such action and the identity of the party or parties with respect to which it intends to take such action; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the foregoing shall not restrict the Company from permitting a Person to orally request the waiver of a "standstill" or similar obligation.

------

outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable Law (a "<u>Parent Change in Recommendation</u>", it being understood that a customary "stop, look and listen" disclosure in compliance with Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Parent Change in Recommendation and/or (y) following the receipt of a Parent Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of <u>Section</u> <u>5.03(a)</u> or other material breach of this Agreement, if the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that such Parent Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Parent Superior Proposal and the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable Law, Parent may terminate this Agreement in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>7.04(c)</u> and concurrently with such termination cause Parent to enter into an Alternative Parent Acquisition Agreement providing for such Parent Superior Proposal (a "<u>Parent Superior Proposal Termination</u>"); <u>provided</u> that no Parent Change in Recommendation and/or Parent Superior Proposal Termination may be made until after at least five (5) business days following the Company's receipt of written notice from the Parent advising that Parent's Board of Directors intends to take such action and the basis therefor (which notice shall include a copy of any such Parent Superior Proposal and a copy of all proposed transaction agreements, the identity of the party making such Parent Superior Proposal and the material terms thereof or, in the case of notice given other than in connection with a Parent Superior Proposal, a reasonably detailed description of the development or change in connection with which Parent's Board of Directors has given such notice). After providing such notice and prior to effecting such Parent Change in Recommendation and/or Parent Superior Proposal Termination, (x) Parent shall and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, during such five (5) business day period, negotiate in good faith with the Company and its Representatives, to the extent the Company wishes to negotiate, with respect to any revisions to the terms of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement proposed by the Company, and (y) in order to make a Parent Change in Recommendation and/or effect a Parent Superior Proposal Termination, the Board of Directors of Parent shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Company and any other information provided by the Company in response to such notice during such five (5) business day period and must determine in good faith, in consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that, with respect to a Parent Superior Proposal, such Parent Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Parent Superior Proposal and, with respect to either a Parent Superior Proposal or a Parent Intervening Event, the failure to make such Parent Change in Recommendation and/or effect a Parent Superior Proposal Termination (as applicable) would be inconsistent with the directors' fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Any amendment to the financial terms or conditions or other material terms of any Parent Acquisition Proposal or any material modifications or developments with respect to a Parent Intervening Event will be deemed to be a new Parent Acquisition Proposal or a new Parent Intervening Event, respectively, for purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>5.03(f)</u>, including with respect to the notice period referred to in this <u>Section</u> <u>5.03(f)</u>, except that the five (5) business day period shall be three (3) business days for such purposes in any such case, and the Company shall be required to provide Parent with a new notice describing any such amendments, modifications or developments.

From the date of this Agreement until the Parent Stockholder Approval, Parent shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any "standstill" or similar obligation to which Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a party that was entered into in connection with any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent shall be permitted to terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any "standstill" or similar obligation of any Person if the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; <u>provided</u> that Parent promptly provides written notice to Parent that it has taken such action and the identity of the party or parties with respect to which it has taken such action; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the foregoing shall not restrict Parent from permitting a Person to orally request the waiver of a "standstill" or similar obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Certain Permitted Disclosure</u>. Nothing contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>5.03</u> shall be deemed to prohibit Parent from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable U.S. federal or state Law with regard to a Parent Acquisition Proposal; <u>provided</u> that this paragraph <u>(h)</u> shall not be deemed to permit Parent or Parent's Board of Directors to effect a Parent Change in Recommendation except in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>5.02(f)</u>.

change in the record date or to result in any failure to comply with any notice or other procedural requirements pertaining to the calling and holding of the Parent Stockholders Meeting or the Company Stockholders Meeting under Parent's or the Company's respective organizational documents or applicable Law which would result in the Parent Stockholders Meeting or the Company Stockholders Meeting being held later than 60 days after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective (subject to any subsequent adjournments or postponements under this clause (c)).

WHEREAS, each Covered Stockholder holds and is entitled to vote (or direct the voting of) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock or Company Class B Common Stock set forth opposite such Covered Stockholder's name on Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 attached hereto, as applicable; and

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent and the Merger Subs to enter into the Merger Agreement, each Covered Stockholder (in such Covered Stockholder's capacity as a stockholder of the Company) has agreed to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Certain Definitions</u>. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement. For all purposes of and under this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) "<u>Covered Shares</u>" means, with respect to any Covered Stockholder and except to the extent Transferred in accordance with Section 2, (i) all Shares set forth opposite such Covered Stockholder's name on Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 attached hereto, as applicable, or that such Covered Stockholder otherwise is the beneficial owner of as of the date hereof, and (ii) all Shares that such Covered Stockholder comes to hold and to be entitled to vote (or direct the voting of) or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Expiration Date, together with any voting securities or instruments of the Company, or other equity interests exercisable for or convertible into Shares or other voting securities or instruments of the Company, that such Covered Stockholder comes to hold and be entitled to vote (or direct the voting of) or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Expiration Date (including by way of bonus issue, share dividend or distribution, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, exchange, readjustment or other similar transaction or other change in the capital structure of the Company).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) "<u>Transfer</u>" means, with respect to any Covered Stockholder, that such Covered Stockholder directly or indirectly (i) sells, pledges, encumbers, exchanges, assigns, offers, grants an option with respect to, transfers, tenders or otherwise disposes of a Covered Share of such Covered Stockholder or any direct or indirect interest in any such Covered Share (including by gift, merger or operation of law), (ii) enters into an agreement, arrangement or commitment providing for the sale of, pledge of, encumbrance of, exchange of, assignment of, grant of an option with respect to, transfer, tender of or other disposition of a Covered Share or any direct or indirect interest in a Covered Share (including by gift, merger or operation of law) or (iii) enters into any Contract committing or agreeing, or otherwise commits or agrees, to take any of the foregoing actions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) "<u>beneficially own</u>", "<u>beneficial ownership</u>" and correlatives of the same shall have the meaning set forth under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Transfer of Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Transfer Restrictions</u>*.* From the date hereof until the earlier of the Expiration Date and the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, and except pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Covered Stockholder hereby agrees not to Transfer (or cause or permit the Transfer of) any Covered Shares of such Covered Stockholder, or enter into any Contract (including any option, put, call or similar arrangement) relating thereto, except that any Covered Stockholder may Transfer any or all of such Covered Shares (1) to or with another Covered Stockholder, (2) with respect to any Company Class A Common Stock in any "net settlement" or other procedures to satisfy withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of Company RSUs, or (3) subject to Section 7(b) hereof, to or with a Permitted Transferee if, as a condition thereto, (x) such Permitted Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if they were an original party hereto (in the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>) and (y) prompt written notice of such Transfer to such Permitted Transferee is delivered to Parent together with an executed copy of such agreement no less than five (5) business days prior to the time of such Permitted Transfer, stating the name and address of the transferee and identifying the Covered Shares being transferred to the transferee. For the purposes of this Agreement, (A) a "<u>Permitted Transferee</u>" means, with respect to each Covered Stockholder, (i) any Person that would constitute a "Permitted Transferee" as defined in the Company Charter (it being understood and agreed that, for these purposes, the definition of "Permitted Transfer" under the Company Charter shall be deemed to additionally permit Transfers of shares of Company Class A Common Stock, on a *mutatis mutandis* basis), (ii) any Person by will or the laws of intestacy, (iii) any trust or other estate planning vehicle for the direct or indirect benefit of one or more Covered Stockholders or any Family Member of a Covered Stockholder, and (iv) if such Covered Stockholder is a trust, any beneficiary of such trust; and (B) a "Family Member" means, with respect to an individual, any spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, brother or sister, adopted child or grandchild of the spouse of any child, adopted child, grandchild or adopted grandchild of such individual. For the avoidance of doubt, a Permitted Transferee may Transfer any and all Covered Shares that were Transferred to such Transferee to its own Permitted Transferees in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Section 2(a) and Section 7(b), as if such Permitted Transferee were a "Covered Stockholder".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Consequences</u>. Any Transfer (or purported Transfer), which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes any of the actions described in Section 2(b), in breach of this Agreement shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

As soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within 24 hours) following the public announcement of the Merger Agreement, each Covered Stockholder with a Rule 10b5-1 written trading plan then in effect with respect to any of its Covered Shares shall give, or cause the Company to give, a notice of termination of each such plan to the broker thereunder in accordance with the terms of such plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 7(b), including the Share Cap, no Covered Stockholder shall be deemed to violate this Agreement with respect to any Transfer (or any conversion of shares of Company Class B Common Stock into shares of Company Class A Common Stock in connection with any such Transfer) that may occur pursuant to such written trading plan prior to the effectiveness of the termination of such plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Agreement to Vote Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Mergers and the other Transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any meeting of the Company's stockholders to a later date, (A) if there are not sufficient votes to adopt and approve the Merger Agreement and approve the Mergers and the other Transactions, (B) if a quorum is not present or (C) that the Board of Directors of the Company otherwise supports and recommends in favor of in furtherance of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) against (x) approval of any proposal made in opposition to the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Mergers and the other Transactions or (y) in competition or inconsistent with the Mergers and the other Transactions, including any Company Acquisition Proposal and any Alternative Company Acquisition Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) against any amendment to the Company Charter or Company Bylaws, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to result in the conversion of such Covered Stockholder's shares of Company Class B Common Stock (if any) into shares of Company Class A Common Stock.

Service of process, summons, notice or document to any party's address and in the manner set forth in Section 17(d) shall be effective service of process for any such action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Severabili</u>ty*.* The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (i) a suitable and equitable provision negotiated in good faith by the parties hereto shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (ii) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not, subject to clause (i) above, be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, except as a result of such substitution, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Interpretation</u>*.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Section headings or captions herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to a Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words "include", "includes" or "including" are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation". The words "hereof", "herein" and "hereunder" and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word "or" when used in this Agreement is not exclusive. The word "extent" in the phrase "to the extent" shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply "if". All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any statute defined or referred to herein means such statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including by succession of comparable successor statutes. Any agreement or instrument defined or referred to herein includes all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The parties have participated jointly in negotiating and drafting this Agreement. In the event that an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Ass</u>ig<u>nment</u>*.* This Agreement shall not be assignable by operation of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of each of the parties. Any assignment in contravention of the preceding sentence shall be null and void.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Specific Performance</u>*.* The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that Parent shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in accordance with Section 17(c), without proof of actual damages (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is an unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable Law or inequitable remedy for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach or that Parent otherwise has an adequate remedy at law.

**EXHIBIT B** 

**SECTION 262 OF THE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW** 

**OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE** 

**§ 262. Appraisal rights For application of this section, see 81 Del. Laws, c. 354, § 17; 82 Del. Laws, c. 45, § 23; 82 Del. Laws, c. 256, § 24; 83 Del. Laws, c. 377, § 22; and 84 Del. Laws, c.98, § 16.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant to subsection (d) of this section with respect to such shares, who continuously holds such shares through the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, who has otherwise complied with subsection (d) of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to § 228 of this title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair value of the stockholder's shares of stock under the circumstances described in subsections (b) and (c) of this section. As used in this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record of stock in a corporation; the words "stock" and "share" mean and include what is ordinarily meant by those words; the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt or other instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in 1 or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the depository; the words "beneficial owner" mean a person who is the beneficial owner of shares of stock held either in voting trust or by a nominee on behalf of such person; and the word "person" means any individual, corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation in a merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance to be effected pursuant to § 251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to § 251(g) of this title), § 252, § 254, § 255, § 256, § 257, § 258, § 263, § 264, § 266 or § 390 of this title (other than, in each case and solely with respect to a converted or domesticated corporation, a merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance authorized pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of § 265 or § 388 of this title):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting of stockholders, or at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to consent pursuant to § 228 of this title, to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation or the resolution providing for the conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance (or, in the case of a merger pursuant to § 251(h) of this title, as of immediately prior to the execution of the agreement of merger), were either: (i) listed on a national securities exchange or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation as provided in § 251(f) of this title.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (b)(1) of this section, appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation, or by the terms of a resolution providing for conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, pursuant to § 251, § 252, § 254, § 255, § 256, § 257, § 258, § 263, § 264, § 266 or § 390 of this title to accept for such stock anything except:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger or consolidation, or of the converted entity or the entity resulting from a transfer, domestication or continuance if such entity is a corporation as a result of the conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, or depository receipts in respect thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance will be either listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 holders;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing paragraphs (b)(2)a. and b. of this section; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing paragraphs (b)(2)a., b. and c. of this section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a merger effected under § 253 or § 267 of this title is not owned by the parent immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) [Repealed.]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent corporation, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation or a conversion effected pursuant to § 266 of this title or a transfer, domestication or continuance effected pursuant to § 390 of this title. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision, the provisions of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d), (e), and (g) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) If a proposed merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for notice of such meeting (or such members who received notice in accordance with § 255(c) of this title) with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this section that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations or the converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation, and shall include in such notice either a copy of this section (and, if 1 of the constituent corporations or the converting corporation is a nonstock corporation, a copy of § 114 of this title) or information directing the stockholders to a publicly available electronic resource at which this section (and, § 114 of this title, if applicable) may be accessed without subscription or cost. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, a written demand for appraisal of such stockholder's shares; provided that a demand may be delivered to the corporation by electronic transmission if directed to an information processing system (if any) expressly designated for that purpose in such notice. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares. A proxy or vote against the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, the surviving, resulting or converted entity shall notify each stockholder of each constituent or converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, and any beneficial owner who has demanded appraisal under paragraph (d)(3) of this section, of the date that the merger, consolidation or conversion has become effective; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) If the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance was approved pursuant to § 228, § 251(h), § 253, or § 267 of this title, then either a constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation before the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, or the surviving, resulting or converted entity within 10 days after such effective date, shall notify each stockholder of any class or series of stock of such constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation who is entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation, and shall include in such notice either a copy of this section (and, if 1 of the constituent corporations or the converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation is a nonstock corporation, a

------

copy of § 114 of this title) or information directing the stockholders to a publicly available electronic resource at which this section (and § 114 of this title, if applicable) may be accessed without subscription or cost. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of giving such notice or, in the case of a merger approved pursuant to § 251(h) of this title, within the later of the consummation of the offer contemplated by § 251(h) of this title and 20 days after the date of giving such notice, demand in writing from the surviving, resulting or converted entity the appraisal of such holder's shares; provided that a demand may be delivered to such entity by electronic transmission if directed to an information processing system (if any) expressly designated for that purpose in such notice. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs such entity of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, either (i) each such constituent corporation or the converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance or (ii) the surviving, resulting or converted entity shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice or, in the case of a merger approved pursuant to § 251(h) of this title, later than the later of the consummation of the offer contemplated by § 251(h) of this title and 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with this subsection and any beneficial owner who has demanded appraisal under paragraph (d)(3) of this section. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation or entity that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation or the converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section (but subject to this paragraph (d)(3)), a beneficial owner may, in such person's name, demand in writing an appraisal of such beneficial owner's shares in accordance with either paragraph (d)(1) or (2) of this section, as applicable; provided that (i) such beneficial owner continuously owns such shares through the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance and otherwise satisfies the requirements applicable to a stockholder under the first sentence of subsection (a) of this section and (ii) the demand made by such beneficial owner reasonably identifies the holder of record of the shares for which the demand is made, is accompanied by documentary evidence of such beneficial owner's beneficial ownership of stock and a statement that such documentary evidence is a true and correct copy of what it purports to be, and provides an address at which such beneficial owner consents to receive notices given by the surviving, resulting or converted entity hereunder and to be set forth on the verified list required by subsection (f) of this section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, the surviving, resulting or converted entity, or any person who has complied with subsections (a) and (d) of this section and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may commence an appraisal proceeding by filing a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, any person entitled to appraisal rights who has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party shall have the right to withdraw such person's demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, any person who has complied with the

------

requirements of subsections (a) and (d) of this section, upon request given in writing (or by electronic transmission directed to an information processing system (if any) expressly designated for that purpose in the notice of appraisal), shall be entitled to receive from the surviving, resulting or converted entity a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance (or, in the case of a merger approved pursuant to § 251(h) of this title, the aggregate number of shares (other than any excluded stock (as defined in § 251(h)(6)d. of this title) that were the subject of, and were not tendered into, and accepted for purchase or exchange in, the offer referred to in § 251(h)(2) of this title)), and, in either case, with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of stockholders or beneficial owners holding or owning such shares (provided that, where a beneficial owner makes a demand pursuant to paragraph (d)(3) of this section, the record holder of such shares shall not be considered a separate stockholder holding such shares for purposes of such aggregate number). Such statement shall be given to the person within 10 days after such person's request for such a statement is received by the surviving, resulting or converted entity or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) of this section, whichever is later.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Upon the filing of any such petition by any person other than the surviving, resulting or converted entity, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon such entity, which shall within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all persons who have demanded appraisal for their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by such entity. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving, resulting or converted entity, the petition shall be accompanied by such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving, resulting or converted entity and to the persons shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving, resulting or converted entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the persons who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal rights. The Court may require the persons who have demanded an appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any person fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such person. If immediately before the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance the shares of the class or series of stock of the constituent, converting, transferring, domesticating or continuing corporation as to which appraisal rights are available were listed on a national securities exchange, the Court shall dismiss the proceedings as to all holders of such shares who are otherwise entitled to appraisal rights unless (1) the total number of shares entitled to appraisal exceeds 1% of the outstanding shares of the class or series eligible for appraisal, (2) the value of the consideration provided in the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance for such total number of shares exceeds $1 million, or (3) the merger was approved pursuant to § 253 or § 267 of this title.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) After the Court determines the persons entitled to an appraisal, the appraisal proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the Court of Chancery, including any rules specifically governing appraisal proceedings. Through such proceeding the Court shall determine the fair value of the shares exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, together with interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court shall take into account all relevant factors. Unless the Court in its discretion determines otherwise for good cause shown, and except as provided in this subsection, interest from the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance through the date of payment of the judgment shall be compounded quarterly and shall accrue at 5% over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time during the period between the effective date of the merger, consolidation or conversion and the date of payment of the judgment. At any time before the entry of judgment in the proceedings, the surviving, resulting or converted entity may pay to each person entitled to appraisal an amount in cash, in which case interest shall accrue thereafter as provided herein only upon the sum of (1) the difference, if any, between the amount so paid and the fair value of the shares as determined by the Court, and (2) interest theretofore accrued, unless paid at that time. Upon application by the surviving, resulting or converted entity or by any person entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the persons entitled to an appraisal. Any person whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving, resulting or converted entity pursuant to subsection (f) of this section may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that such person is not entitled to appraisal rights under this section.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving, resulting or converted entity to the persons entitled thereto. Payment shall be so made to each such person upon such terms and conditions as the Court may order. The Court's decree may be enforced as other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving, resulting or converted entity be an entity of this State or of any state.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a person whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving, resulting or converted entity pursuant to subsection (f) of this section who participated in the proceeding and incurred expenses in connection therewith, the Court may order all or a portion of such expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to an appraisal not dismissed pursuant to subsection (k) of this section or subject to such an award pursuant to a reservation of jurisdiction under subsection (k) of this section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Subject to the remainder of this subsection, from and after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, no person who has demanded appraisal rights with respect to some or all of such person's shares as provided in subsection (d) of this section shall be entitled to vote such shares for any purpose or to receive payment of dividends or other distributions on such shares (except dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance). If a person who has made a demand for an appraisal in accordance with this section shall deliver to the surviving, resulting or converted entity a written withdrawal of such person's demand for an appraisal in respect of some or all of such person's shares in accordance with subsection (e) of this section, either within 60 days after such effective date or thereafter with the written approval of the corporation, then the right of such person to an appraisal of the shares subject to the withdrawal shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall not be dismissed as to any person without the approval of the Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just, including without limitation, a reservation of jurisdiction for any application to the Court made under subsection (j) of this section; provided, however that this provision shall not affect the right of any person who has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party to withdraw such person's demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance within 60 days after the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, as set forth in subsection (e) of this section.
