 FLOATING RATE NOTES DUE 2014 

SECTION 2.01    Creation of Series; Establishment of Form. 

(a) There is hereby established a new series of Securities under the Indenture entitled “Floating Rate Notes due 2014”.

 (b) The form of the Notes, including the form of the certificate of authentication, is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 (c) The Company shall issue the Notes in an aggregate principal amount of USD 650,000,000. The Company may from time to time,
without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes in accordance with Sections 301 and 901 of the Indenture. Any such additional Notes subsequently issued shall rank equally and ratably with the Notes in all respects

single series with the Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes. 

  
 - 4 -

 (d) The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global
securities, without coupons, registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary (each, a “Global Security”) and deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for the Depositary. Any proposed transfer of an interest
in the Notes shall consist of a transfer in a Global Security and shall be effected through the book-entry system maintained by the Depositary. 
 (e) The Notes shall not have a sinking fund. 
 (f) The stated maturity of the
principal of the Notes shall be January 27, 2014 (the “Stated Maturity”). 
 (g) The outstanding principal
amount of the Notes shall accrue interest at a rate equal to 3-Month LIBOR, reset quarterly, plus the Spread, as provided in Section 2.03. 
 (h) The Notes shall be issued in denominations of USD 1,000 in principal amount and integral multiples of USD 1,000 in excess thereof. 

(i) The Notes shall be subject to both Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance in accordance with the Indenture. 

(j) The Notes shall be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally with all other existing and future unsecured and
unsubordinated debt obligations of the Company. 
 SECTION 2.02 Guarantee. Subject to the terms and applicable
limitations set forth in the Indenture and the form of Notes, the Notes shall be jointly and severally, irrevocably, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors as to all payments due on the Notes whether at their Stated Maturity, by
acceleration, redemption, repayment or otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Guarantees and the Indenture. In the case of the failure of the Company to pay punctually any principal, premium or interest on the Notes, the Guarantors shall
cause any such payment to be made as it becomes due and payable, whether at maturity, upon acceleration, redemption, repayment or otherwise. The Guarantees shall be unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Guarantors and rank equally with
other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Guarantors that is currently outstanding or that they may issue in the future. 
 SECTION 2.03 Interest. The Notes shall bear interest at a floating rate per year equal to the 3-Month U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“3-Month LIBOR”), reset quarterly,
plus 0.55% (the “Spread”), as described below. Interest will accrue from January 27, 2011 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be. Interest is
payable quarterly on January 27, April 27, July 27, and October 27 of each year, subject to the 

  
 - 5 -

 
Business Day Convention (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on April 27, 2011 and until full repayment of the outstanding principal of the Notes, to the Person in whose
name the Notes were registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for
payment. 
 If the date of maturity of principal of the Notes or the date fixed for redemption or payment in connection with an
acceleration of any Note is not a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date
fixed for redemption or payment in connection with acceleration, and no interest shall accrue as a result of the delayed payment. 
 The interest rate on the Notes for the first Interest Period will be 3-Month LIBOR, as determined on January 27, 2011 (treating January 27, 2011 as if it were an Interest Determination Date and
the related Interest Reset Date), plus the Spread. Thereafter, the interest rate on the Notes for any Interest Period will be 3-Month LIBOR, as determined on the applicable Interest Determination Date, plus the Spread. The interest rate on the Notes
will be reset quarterly on each Interest Reset Date. For each Interest Period, interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 360. 

The Calculation Agent will determine 3-Month LIBOR in accordance with the following provisions: With respect to any Interest
Determination Date, 3-Month LIBOR will be the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months commencing on the related Interest Reset Date that appears on the designated LIBOR page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest
Determination Date. If no rate appears, 3-Month LIBOR, in respect of that Interest Determination Date, will be determined as follows: the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London
interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the Interest Reset
Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time.
If at least two quotations are provided, then 3-Month LIBOR on that Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then 3-Month LIBOR on the Interest Determination Date will be
the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company) for
loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by
the Calculation 

  
 - 6 -

 
Agent are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, 3-Month LIBOR determined as of that Interest Determination Date will be 3-Month LIBOR in effect on that Interest
Determination Date. The designated LIBOR page is the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or any successor service for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for U.S. dollars. The Reuters screen “LIBOR01” is the
display designated as the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or such other page as may replace the Reuters screen “LIBOR01” on that service or such other service or services as may be denominated by the British Bankers’ Association
for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits. 
 All calculations made by the
Calculation Agent for the purposes of calculating the interest rate on the Notes shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders, the Company and the Trustee, absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.04 Payment of Principal, Interest and Other Amounts. Payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts and such payments on Notes represented by a Global Security shall be made through one or
more Paying Agents appointed under the Indenture to the Depositary or its nominee, as the Holder of the Global Security. Initially, the Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes will be The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in St. Louis,
Missouri. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Notes, and in such an event the Company may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. Payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes represented by a Global Security shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided, however, that in the case of payments of principal and premium, if any, such Global Security is first surrendered to the
Paying Agent. 
 SECTION 2.05 Optional Tax Redemption. 

(a) The Company may, at the Company’s or the Parent Guarantor’s option, redeem the Notes in whole but not in part, upon not less
than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed (and all
Additional Amounts, if any) to (but excluding) the Redemption Date, if (i) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, treaties, regulations or rulings of a jurisdiction in which the Company or any Guarantor is incorporated,
organized, or otherwise tax resident or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or in the interpretation, application or administration of any such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including a
holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction) which becomes effective on or after the Original Issue Date (any such change or amendment, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Company or, if a payment were then due under a
Guarantee, the relevant Guarantor, 

  
 - 7 -

 
would be required to pay Additional Amounts and (ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company or the relevant Guarantor taking reasonable measures available to it; provided, however,
that the Notes may not be redeemed to the extent such Additional Amounts arise solely as a result of the Company assigning its obligations under the Notes to a Substitute Company (as defined in Section 801 of the Indenture), unless such
assignment to a Substitute Company is undertaken as part of a plan of merger by the Parent Guarantor. 
 (b) Prior to the
mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Company or the relevant Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee an opinion of independent tax counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company or the relevant
Guarantor is or would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result in such Change in Tax Law. 
 (c) No notice of
redemption pursuant to this Section 2.05 may be given earlier than ninety (90) days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or the relevant Guarantor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes
were then due. 
 SECTION 2.06 Additional Covenant. Solely with respect to the Guarantees of the Notes by the Subsidiary
Guarantors, clause (i) of Section 208 of the Indenture shall be deemed to read in its entirety as follows: 
 “(i)
at substantially the same time as its Guarantee of the Securities is terminated, the relevant Guarantor is, or has been, released from its guarantee of the Senior Facility Agreement and the 2010 Senior Facility Agreement, or is no longer a guarantor
under either the Senior Facility Agreement or the 2010 Senior Facility Agreement and”

Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the
“Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or its registered assigns, on January 27, 2014 (the
“Maturity Date”), the principal sum of USD [_], and to pay interest thereon from January 27, 2011 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly on
January 27, April 27, July 27 and October 27, subject to the Business Day Convention, in each year, commencing on April 27, 2011, at a floating rate equal to 3-Month LIBOR, reset quarterly, plus 0.55%, per
annum, as described below, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. 
 The interest rate on the Notes
for the first Interest Period will be 3-Month LIBOR, as determined on January 27, 2011 (treating January 27, 2011 as if it were an Interest Determination Date and the related Interest Reset Date), plus the Spread. Thereafter, the interest
rate on the Notes for any Interest Period will be 3-Month LIBOR, as determined on the applicable Interest Determination Date, plus the Spread. The interest rate on the Notes will be reset quarterly on each Interest Reset Date. For each Interest
Period, interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 360. 
 The Calculation Agent will determine 3-Month LIBOR in accordance with the following provisions: With respect to any Interest Determination Date, 3-Month LIBOR will be the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars
having a maturity of three months commencing on the related Interest Reset Date that appears on the designated LIBOR page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date. If no rate appears, 3-Month LIBOR, in respect of that
Interest Determination Date, will be determined as follows: the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent (after
consultation with the Company), to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date

and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, then 3-Month LIBOR on that Interest
Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then 3-Month LIBOR on the Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New
York City time, on the Interest Determination Date by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company) for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having a three-month
maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not providing quotations in the manner
described by this sentence, 3-Month LIBOR determined as of that Interest Determination Date will be 3-Month LIBOR in effect on that Interest Determination Date. The designated LIBOR page is the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or any successor
service for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for U.S. dollars. The Reuters screen “LIBOR01” is the display designated as the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or such other page as may replace the
Reuters screen “LIBOR01” on that service or such other service or services as may be denominated by the British Bankers’ Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits.

duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such fifteenth calendar day and may either
be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be
given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of
this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 
 Subject to the terms of the Indenture, this Security is fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to all payments due hereon whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption, repayment or
otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Guarantees and the Indenture.

 Exhibit A 

 

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

 

	 	1.	Securities and Indenture 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (payable in U.S. dollars) (herein called the
“Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of October 16, 2009 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of
January 27, 2011 (the “Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), in each case among the Company, Anheuser-Busch InBev NV/SA, as Parent Guarantor, the Subsidiary
Guarantors party thereto from time to time and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Base Indenture), and reference is hereby
made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and
are to be, authenticated and delivered. 
  

	 	2.	Series and Denomination 

This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited to an aggregate principal amount of USD 650,000,000,
except as provided in the Indenture. References herein to “this series” mean the series of securities designated on the face hereof. Except as provided in the preceding paragraph, references herein to the “Securities”
means (unless the context otherwise requires) the Securities of this series and includes any other securities issued, as provided in the Indenture and forming a single series with the Securities of this series. 

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of USD 1,000 in principal amount and integral
multiples of USD 1,000 in excess thereof. 
  

	 	3.	Optional Tax Redemption 

The Company may, at the Company’s or the Parent Guarantor’s option, redeem the Securities in whole, but not in part, upon not
less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed
(and all Additional Amounts, if any) to (but excluding) the Redemption Date, if (i) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, treaties, regulations or rulings of a jurisdiction in which the Company or any Guarantor is
incorporated, organized, or otherwise tax resident or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or in the interpretation, application or administration of any such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings
(including a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction) which becomes effective on or after the Original Issue Date (any such change or amendment, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Company or, if a

  
 A-6

 Exhibit A 

 

 
payment were then due under a Guarantee, the relevant Guarantor, would be required to pay Additional Amounts and (ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company or the relevant
Guarantor taking reasonable measures available to it; provided, however, that the Securities may not be redeemed to the extent such Additional Amounts arise solely as a result of the Company assigning its obligations under the Securities to a
Substitute Company, unless such assignment to a Substitute Company is undertaken as part of a plan of merger by the Parent Guarantor. 
 Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this Section, the Company or the relevant Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee an opinion of independent tax counsel of recognized standing to
the effect that the Company or the relevant Guarantor is or would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result in such Change in Tax Law. 
 No notice of redemption pursuant to this Section may be given earlier that ninety (90) days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or the relevant Guarantor would be obligated to pay
Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities were then due. 
  

	 	4.	Additional Amounts 

 In
the event that any Guarantor becomes obligated to make payments in respect of the Securities, such Guarantor will make all payments in respect of the Securities without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes or
duties of whatever nature imposed or levied by way of withholding or deduction at source by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which such Guarantor is incorporated, organized, or otherwise tax resident or any political subdivision or any authority
thereof or therein having power to tax (the “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In such event, such Guarantor will pay to the Holders such additional amounts (the
“Additional Amounts”) as shall be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Holders, after such withholding or deduction, shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest which would otherwise have been
receivable in the absence of such withholding or deduction; except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable on account of any taxes or duties which: 
 (a) are payable by any person acting as custodian bank or collecting agent on behalf of a Holder, or otherwise in any manner which does not constitute a deduction or withholding by such Guarantor from
payment of principal or interest made by it, or 
 (b) are payable by reason of the Holder or beneficial owner
having, or having had, some personal or business connection with such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and not merely by reason of the fact that payments in respect of the Securities or the Guarantees are, or for purposes of taxation are deemed to be,
derived from sources in, or are secured in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or 

  
 A-7

 Exhibit A 

 

 (c) are imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or
beneficial owner to provide certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence, or identity of the Holder and beneficial owner or to make any valid or timely declaration or similar claim or satisfy any
other reporting requirements relating to such matters, whether required or imposed by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice, as a precondition to exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of withholding or deduction of such taxes,
or 
 (d) consist of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar taxes,
or 
 (e) are imposed on or with respect to any payment by the applicable Guarantor to the registered Holder if
such Holder is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that taxes would not have been imposed on such payment had such registered Holder been the sole beneficial owner of this
Security, or 
 (f) are deducted or withheld pursuant to (i) any European Union directive or regulation
concerning the taxation of interest income, or (ii) any international treaty or understanding relating to such taxation and to which the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or the European Union is a party, or (iii) any provision of law
implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such directive, regulation, treaty or understanding, or 
 (g) are payable by reason of a change in law or practice that becomes effective more than 30 days after the relevant payment of principal or interest becomes due, or is duly provided for and written
notice thereof is provided to the Holders, whichever occurs later, or 
 (h) are payable because any Security was
presented to a particular paying agent for payment if the Security could have been presented to another paying agent without any such withholding or deduction, or 

(i) are payable for any combination of (a) through (h) above. 

References to principal or interest in respect of the Securities shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable
as set forth in the Indenture. 
 The covenant regarding Additional Amounts shall not apply to any Guarantor at any time when
such Guarantor is incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States, and will apply to the Company any time it is incorporated in a jurisdiction outside of the United States. 

  
 A-8

 Exhibit A 

 

	 	5.	Transfer and Exchange 

 As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the
Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed
by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of
this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this
Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantors or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether
or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  

	 	6.	Limitation on Suits 

 As
provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy
thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this
series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity and/or security, and the Trustee shall not have received from the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity and/or security. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates
expressed herein. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and 

  
 A-9

 Exhibit A 

 
 
unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

 

	 	7.	Amendment, Modification and Waiver 

 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company or the Guarantors and the rights of the Holders
of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding (irrespective of series) that
are to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to
waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantors with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Security. 
  

	 	8.	Defeasance 

 The Indenture
contains provisions for defeasance at any time of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 

 

	 	9.	Governing Law 

 This
Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
  

	 	10.	Defined Terms 

 All terms
used in this Security which are defined in the Base Indenture or the Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Base Indenture or the Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture.

Representative Agreement. The Company shall deliver to Parent at Closing each such Company Stock Certificate and properly completed and executed Transmittal Letter as has been received at such time, together with a copy of each counterpart signature
page to the Shareholders’ Representative Agreement as has been received at such time. 
 (b) At Closing
Parent shall (i) pay by wire transfer to the Shareholders’ Account the Closing Payment Amount, and (ii) issue to each Person who was a holder of record of Company Shares immediately before the Effective Time (or, under the
circumstances described in Section 2.08(d), the transferee of the Company Shares represented by such Company Stock Certificate) the number and type of (uncertificated) CVRs set forth opposite such holder’s name in Schedule A to the
Shareholders’ Representative Agreement; provided however that no CVR shall be deemed to be issued to any Nontendering Shareholder unless and until such Nontendering Shareholder is entitled to Postclosing CVRs. The Closing Payment Amount shall
be subject to subsequent Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.09 below. 
 (c) Neither Parent nor the
Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Company Shares for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property or escheat Legal Requirements. 

  
 11 

 (d) If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, then, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative (together with
an indemnity in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative against any claim that may be made against Parent or the Shareholders’ Representative or otherwise with respect to such certificate and, if
required by Parent or the Shareholders’ Representative, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent or the Shareholders’ Representative may direct to support such indemnity), the Shareholders’
Representative shall (subject to the other prerequisites described in Section 2.06(a)(iii) and Section 2.08(b)) pay out of the Shareholders’ Account in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock
Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration. 
 (e) In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company
Shares which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration may (subject to the other prerequisites described in Section 2.06(a)(iii) and Section 2.08(b)) be paid and issued with respect to
such Company Shares to a transferee of such Company Shares if the Company Stock Certificate representing such Company Shares is presented to Parent or the Shareholders’ Representative, accompanied by all documents reasonably required by Parent
or the Shareholders’ Representative to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes relating to such transfer have been paid. 

(f) The Surviving Corporation or Parent shall bear and pay all charges and expenses incurred in connection with the
exchange of the Company Shares. 
 (g) Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and
withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to the Merger or this Agreement to or toward the Shareholders’ Account, such amounts as Parent or the Surviving Corporation are required to deduct and withhold under the Code with
respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Tax authority or other Governmental Entity by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all
purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Company Shares, in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation. 

Section 2.09. Closing Payment Adjustment. 

(a) Within 60 calendar days after the Closing Date, Parent or the Company shall prepare and deliver to the
Shareholders’ Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) consisting of (i) an unaudited Closing Date Balance Sheet and (ii) a calculation of the amount of Non-Cash Working Capital (the “Closing Date
Non-Cash Working Capital Amount”) as of the Closing Date, as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet. The Closing Statement will be finalized (as finalized, the “Final Closing Statement”) by the parties in accordance
with the procedures set forth in Section 2.09(c). If the Shareholders’ Representative does not object in writing to any item set forth on the Closing Statement by complying in full with Section 2.09(c), the Closing
Statement shall be deemed to have been finalized by the parties as the Final Closing Statement and, as a result thereof shall be final, conclusive, and binding on each of the parties and shall become the Final Closing Statement for purposes of this
Agreement. If the Shareholders’ Representative objects in writing to any item set forth on the Closing Statement as provided in Section 2.09(c), then the Final Closing Statement shall be determined in accordance with
Section 2.09(c), and then shall be final, conclusive, and binding on each of the parties. 

  
 12 

 (b) Based on the Final Closing Statement, the Closing Payment Amount shall
be adjusted on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of the difference, if any, between 
 (i)
the final Closing Date Non-Cash Working Capital Amount determined from the Final Closing Statement; and 
 (ii) 
 (A) the Target Non-Cash Working Capital
Amount plus the amount, if any, by which (w) the Projected Non-Cash Net Working Capital Amount exceeded (x) the Target Non-Cash Net Working Capital Amount; or 

(B) the Target Non-Cash Working Capital Amount minus the amount, if any, by which (y) the Target
Non-Cash Working Capital Amount exceeded (z) the Projected Non-Cash Working Capital Amount 
 (the parties
acknowledging that (ii)(A) and (B) are mutually exclusive) (the “Adjustment”). If the Adjustment is a negative amount, then the Closing Payment Amount shall be reduced by the absolute value of the Adjustment. If the Adjustment
is a positive amount, the Closing Payment Amount shall be increased by the Adjustment. If the Adjustment results in a reduction to the Closing Payment Amount, the Shareholders’ Representative shall pay the amount of such reduction to the
Closing Payment Amount to Parent by wire transfer of immediately available funds out of the Shareholders’ Account to an account designated by Parent within five Business Days after the date of approval of the Final Closing Statement. (To ensure
that funds are available for any such payment, the Shareholders’ Representative shall retain in and not distribute out of the Shareholders’ Account at least $2,000,000 until the Final Closing Statement has been determined and any amounts
owed to the Parent pursuant thereto have been paid, at which time such restriction shall expire.) If the Adjustment results in an increase in the Closing Payment Amount, Parent shall pay the amount of such increase to the Shareholders’ Account
by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days after the date the Closing Statement is finalized. Any amount that is not paid when due in accordance with this Section 2.09(b) shall accrue interest at a per
annum rate equal to the lesser of 5% or the highest rate permitted under Applicable Laws from the date of finalization of the Final Closing Statement until such amount and all interest accrued thereon is paid in full (with all payments being applied
first to interest and then to any unpaid balance of the such amount). The parties agree that any amount paid pursuant to this Section 2.09(b) shall be deemed to be a reduction or an increase, as applicable, in the amount of the Closing
Payment for all purposes. 
 (c) If the Shareholders’ Representative has any objections to the Closing
Statement as prepared by Parent, then the Shareholders’ Representative must, within 30 calendar days after its receipt thereof, give written notice (the “Closing Statement Objection Notice”) to Parent specifying in reasonable
detail such objections. With respect to any disputed amounts, the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall negotiate in good faith during the 30 calendar day period (the “Resolution Period”) after the date of Parent’s
receipt of the Closing Statement Objection Notice to resolve any such disputes. If the Stockholders’ Representative and Parent are unable to resolve all such disputes within the Resolution Period, then either party may submit the disputes to
the Kansas City, Missouri office of Grant Thornton LLP (the “Accountant”), who shall be engaged to provide a final and conclusive resolution of all unresolved disputes within 30 calendar days after such engagement. If Grant Thornton
LLP is unable or unwilling to serve as the Accountant, the Accountant shall be the Kansas City, Missouri office of an independent accounting firm, with no 

  
 13 

 
material relationship to any of the parties or their Affiliates, of national reputation selected promptly by agreement of the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent. In selecting Grant
Thornton LLP (or such other firm as may be selected in accordance with the foregoing sentence) as the Accountant for purposes of this Agreement, the parties hereby waive any conflict or potential conflict arising from any services performed by such
firm for the Shareholders’ Representative, the shareholders of Company before the Transactions, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates. The Accountant shall act as an arbitrator to determine only those issues that remain in dispute and
such determination shall be based solely on a review of the factual materials presented by the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent, either on their own initiative or at the specific request of the Accountant, and the applicable provisions
of this Agreement. The determination of the Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties, and the Closing Statement as adjusted by such determination shall be the Final Closing Statement. The fees and expenses of the Accountant
shall be allocated by the Accountant between the Shareholders’ Account and Parent based on the aggregate percentage by which the portions of the contested amounts not awarded to each party bear to the aggregate amounts contested by such party.

 Section 2.10. Company Stock Options. 

The Company Board, by operation of existing agreements or by resolution, will take all requisite actions such that
immediately before the Effective Time all outstanding Company Options not theretofore exercised shall be terminated and canceled without any payment or liability on the part of the Company. 

Section 2.11. Dissenting Shares 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Company Share issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time held by a holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands
appraisal of such Company Shares (the “Dissenting Shares”), pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Appraisal Rights”), shall not be converted into the right to receive
the applicable Merger Consideration, but instead shall be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be due such holder pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL unless such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses
such holder’s right to such payment or appraisal. From and after the Effective Time, a holder of Dissenting Shares shall not have and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a stockholder of the Company or
the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses any such Appraisal Rights, each such share of such holder shall no longer be considered a Dissenting Share and shall be deemed to
have converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.06(iii). The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands received by the Company for
appraisal of Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL received by the Company, and Parent shall have the right to control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Before
the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands or agree to do or commit to do any of the foregoing.

 Section 5.03. No Solicitation. 
 (a) At all times during
the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01 and the Effective Time, the Company shall not, and shall not
authorize or permit the Company’s directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys and other agents or representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate,
knowingly encourage or knowingly induce the making, submission or announcement of an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) furnish to any Person any non-public information relating to the Company in response to or in connection with an Acquisition
Proposal (for avoidance of doubt, it being understood that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company or any of its Representatives from furnishing, in the ordinary course of business, any non-public information to (A) any actual or potential
customer, supplier, distributor, licensor, licensee, partner or other Person to the extent necessary to facilitate any business dealings between the Company and such actual or potential customer, supplier, distributor, licensor, licensee, partner or
other Person that are unrelated to any Acquisition Proposal, or (B) a Governmental Entity); (iii) participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (for avoidance of doubt, it
being understood that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company or any of its Representatives from making such Person aware of the restrictions of this Section 5.03 in response to the receipt of an Acquisition Proposal, nor shall it
prohibit the Company from engaging in discussions with its Representatives to the extent reasonably necessary to assist the Company in determining how to properly respond to such Acquisition Proposal); or (iv) approve, endorse or recommend to
the stockholders of the Company any Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time before obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company may, directly
or indirectly through its Representatives, (A) engage or participate in discussions or negotiations with any Person (and may engage or participate in discussions or negotiations with such Person’s Representatives and potential financing
sources) that has made (after the date of this Agreement) an Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor) constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead
to a Superior Proposal, and (B) furnish to any such Person described in clause (A) above (including to such Person’s Representatives and potential financing sources) any non public information relating to the Company and the Company
Subsidiaries pursuant to a confidentiality agreement (whether executed before or after the date of this Agreement), the terms of which are no less favorable in any material respect to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement
(provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such confidentiality agreement is not required to contain standstill provisions); and provided further, that in the case of any action taken pursuant to clause (A) or clause
(B) above, the Company Board shall first have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to take such action is inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations to the stockholders of the Company
under applicable Legal Requirements; and contemporaneously with furnishing any nonpublic information to such Person, the Company furnishes such nonpublic information to Parent (to the extent such information has not been previously furnished by the
Company to Parent). 

  
 36 

 (b) Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall
immediately cease and cause to be terminated any active discussions with any Person that relate to any Acquisition Proposal. 
 (c) Unless the Company Board shall first have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to take the following actions is inconsistent with its fiduciary
obligations to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Legal Requirements, the Company agrees not to release or permit the release of any Person from, or to waive or permit the waiver of any provision of, any confidentiality, standstill or
similar agreement to which the Company is a party or under which the Company has any rights; provided, however, that the expiration or termination of such agreement or provision of such agreement by its own terms shall not be
considered to be a violation of the foregoing by the Company. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, if the Company Board has received an Acquisition Proposal (that has not been withdrawn) that constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company shall provide Parent a written notice specifying the material terms and conditions
of such Superior Proposal, including a copy of such Superior Proposal and identifying the Person making such Superior Proposal, and during the five day period following Parent’s receipt of such notice shall give Parent the opportunity to meet
with the Company and its Representatives, and at Parent’s request, shall negotiate in good faith regarding the terms of possible revisions to the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the obligation of the Company to
solicit written consents in favor of adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Transactions shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Acquisition Proposal unless and
until the Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 7.01, and (ii) the Company shall not submit to the vote (either by written consent action or at a meeting) of its stockholders any Acquisition Proposal, unless and
until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. 
 (f) The Company shall not take any action to
exempt any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates) from the restrictions on “business combinations” contained in Section 203 of the DGCL (or any similar provisions of any other Legal Requirement) or
otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply unless such actions are taken simultaneously with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01. 
 (g) The terms of this Section 5.03 shall terminate and replace entirely the Exclusivity Letter from the Company to the Parent dated December 3, 2010. 

Section 5.04. Solicitation of Written Consents. 

The Company shall duly set the close of business on the date of this Agreement as the record date for the solicitation of
written consents from the Company’s stockholders in favor of adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Transactions and performance of the Company’s obligations hereunder and consummation of the Transactions, and (ii) immediately
thereafter conduct such solicitation and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain through such written consent action, Company Stockholder Approval. Such efforts shall include the full enforcement (by proxies/power of attorney consents and, if
additionally necessary, by any other means) of all applicable contractual drag along rights. 

  
 37 

 Section 5.05. Filings; Other Action; Tax. 

(a) Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall: (i) promptly make and effect all registrations, filings and
submissions required to be made or effected by it pursuant to the Exchange Act and other applicable Legal Requirements with respect to the Transactions; and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be taken, on a timely basis, all other
actions necessary or appropriate for the purpose of consummating and effectuating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall promptly provide
all information requested by any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions. 
 (b) Without
limiting the generality of anything contained in Section 5.05(a) or Section 5.05(c), each party hereto shall (to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements): (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the
making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions; (ii) keep the other parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry,
investigation, action or Legal Proceeding; and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from any Governmental Entity regarding the Transactions. Each party hereto will consult and cooperate with the other parties and
will consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation,
action or Legal Proceeding. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any Legal Requirement, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, each party hereto will permit
authorized representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion
or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding. 
 (c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 5.05, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve such
objections, if any, as may be asserted by a Governmental Entity or other Person with respect to the Transactions. Without limiting any other provision hereof, Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to (i) avoid the
entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any decree, order or judgment that would restrain, prevent or delay the consummation of the Transactions on or before the Outside Date, including by defending through litigation on the merits any claim
asserted in any court by any Person, and (ii) avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any antitrust law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions so as to enable the consummation of the
Transactions to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date); except that Parent need do no such thing that would prevent it from achieving in substantial measure all of the benefits it intended to achieve
via the Transactions. 

  
 38 

 (d) For avoidance of doubt, the parties recognize that Parent shall, upon
issuance thereof, not register the CVRs under the Exchange Act, and Parent shall have no obligation under this Agreement or the CVR Agreement to ever list or include the CVRs, or any of them, on the Exchange or on any other securities exchange or
quotation system. 
 Section 5.06. Access. 

Upon reasonable advance written notice, the Company shall afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, during
normal business hours throughout the period before the Effective Time, to its books and records and, during such period, shall furnish promptly to Parent all readily available information concerning its business as Parent may reasonably request (and
the Company shall also, upon such request, provide such access to its facilities, personnel and contract parties); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to permit any inspection or other access, or to disclose any
information, that in its reasonable judgment would: (a) constitute, or result in any, disclosure (whether or not to a third party) of any of its Trade Secrets in such a way as would destroy their trade-secret status; (b) result in the
disclosure of any Trade Secrets of third parties; (c) violate any of its obligations to third persons with respect to confidentiality; (d) jeopardize protections afforded it under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product
doctrine; (e) violate any Legal Requirement; or (f) materially interfere with the conduct of its business. All information obtained by Parent or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 5.06 shall be treated as
“Confidential Information” for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 Section 5.07. Publicity.

 Parent shall be free to issue press releases and make public statements and filings with respect to the
Transactions. To the extent that either (a) the content of any proposed Company press releases and public statements would not be inconsistent with previously-issued Parent press releases, public statements and filings or (b) Parent has
approved particular proposed Company press releases and public statements in advance and in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Company shall be free to issue such press releases and make such public statements with
respect to the Transactions, but the Company shall not otherwise issue any press releases or make any public statements with respect to the Transactions. Parent shall provide copies of press releases relating to the Transactions, as soon as
reasonably practicable prior to the issue thereof, to the Company prior to the Effective Time, and to the Shareholders’ Representative, after the Effective Time. 
 Section 5.08. Employee Benefits. 
 (a) Unless
“cause” patently appears, any termination of employment of Company employees within 30 days before or after the Closing Date shall be treated as a “termination without cause” or “benefits eligible termination” (or
equivalent term) by the Company entitling such employees to full severance payments and benefits under the employment agreements listed on Section 5.08 of the Company Disclosure Letter, determined on the basis that such termination has
occurred in connection with a change in control, as applicable to individual employees. Section 5.08 of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth the amounts of the cash severance payments applicable as of the Effective Time to each
employee covered by an employment agreement with the Company. (Inclusion on such schedule shall create no inference that such employee shall be terminated in connection with the Merger, or at all.) Before the Effective Time, the Company Board may in
its sole discretion deliver letters to individual employees setting forth their severance payments and benefits upon termination of employment, on a basis consistent with this Section 5.08. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, in no event shall any officer’s voluntary resignation as such (as contemplated by Article VI of this Agreement) affect such Person’s eligibility to receive the severance payments set forth on Section 5.08
of the Company Disclosure Letter or otherwise alter the classification of the termination of employment as contemplated under this Section 5.08. 

  
 39 

 (b) The Company shall as of immediately before the Effective Time terminate
the Company’s 401(k) plan and take all customary ancillary actions in connection with such termination. 

(c) This Section 5.08 shall survive the Effective Time and the consummation of the Merger. This
Section 5.08 is intended to benefit, and may be enforced by, the employees or former employees entitled to the rights set forth hereunder and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall be binding on all
successors and assigns of Parent and the Surviving Corporation. 
 Section 5.09. Indemnification; Directors’ and
Officers’ Insurance. 
 (a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation
and its Subsidiaries to fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company pursuant to (i) each indemnification agreement in effect on the date of this Agreement between the Company and any Indemnified Party; (ii) any
indemnification provision and any exculpation provision in favor of an Indemnified Party that is set forth in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company in effect as of the date of this Agreement and (iii) any other rights to
indemnification now existing in favor of any Indemnified Party under any statute or any express written Contract. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification
and exculpation from liability set forth in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws on the date of this Agreement, and, from and after the Effective Time, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any
manner that could adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnified Party. 
 (b) Without limiting the
provisions of Section 5.09(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Leader against and from any costs,
fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any Legal Proceeding, arbitration, investigation or
inquiry, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such Legal Proceeding, arbitration, investigation or inquiry arises directly or indirectly out of or pertains directly or indirectly to: (i) any action or omission
or alleged action or omission in such Indemnified Leader’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company; or (ii) any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if, at any
time before the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Leader delivers to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as applicable, a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification under this
Section 5.09(b), then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding, arbitration,
investigation or inquiry: (A) any counsel retained by the Indemnified Leaders with respect to the defense thereof for any period after the Effective Time must be reasonably satisfactory to Parent; and (B) Parent will pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of such counsel, promptly after statements therefor are received; provided that the individual to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent required by applicable Legal
Requirements. The Indemnified Leaders as a group may retain only one law firm (in addition to local counsel) to represent them with respect to any single action unless counsel for 

  
 40 

 
any Indemnified Leader determines in good faith that, under applicable standards of professional conduct, a conflict exists or is reasonably likely to arise on any material issue between the
positions of any two or more Indemnified Leaders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.09(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, Parent agrees that it will not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of
any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any Legal Proceeding, arbitration, investigation or inquiry for which indemnification may be sought under this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes
an unconditional release of all Indemnified Leaders from all liability arising out of such Legal Proceeding, arbitration, investigation or inquiry. 
 (c) Parent and the Surviving Corporation jointly and severally agree to pay all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by the Indemnified Parties in successfully enforcing their
indemnity rights and other rights provided in this Section 5.09. 
 (d) This
Section 5.09 shall survive the Effective Time and the consummation of the Merger. This Section 5.09 is intended to benefit, and may be enforced by, the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs, representatives,
successors and assigns, and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent and the Surviving Corporation. 
 (e) Through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect, for the benefit of the Company’s directors and officers that are insured
under the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in effect as of the date of this Agreement (the “D&O Insurance Policy”), the current level and similar scope of directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance coverage as set forth in the D&O Insurance Policy with a carrier selected by Parent; provided, however that in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required pursuant to this
Section 5.09(e) to expend in any one year an amount in excess of 100% of the annual premium currently payable by the Company with respect to such current D&O Insurance Policy, it being understood that if the annual premiums payable
for such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with what Parent determines in good faith to be the most favorable coverage available for a cost equal to such amount. At any time before
or forthwith after the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company may (and at Parent’s direction shall) purchase a customary “tail” prepaid policy on the D&O Insurance Policy
covering a period of six years from the Effective Time. In the event that the Company does purchase such a customary “tail” prepaid policy before the Effective time, Parent will cause the surviving Corporation to maintain such
“tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor its respective obligations thereunder, in lieu of all other obligations of Parent under the first sentence of this Section 5.09(e), for so long as such
“tail” policy shall be maintained in full force and effect. 
 Section 5.10. Efforts to Satisfy Closing
Conditions. 
 Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the
conditions to the other party’s obligations to effect the Merger and the other Transactions to be satisfied. Each party hereto, at the reasonable request of the other, shall execute and deliver such other instruments and do and perform such
other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary and consistent with this Agreement to effect the consummation of the Merger and other Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

  
 41 

 Section 5.11. Shareholders’ Representative; Shareholders’ Account;
Exhaustion of Obligations. 
 (a) There shall be a Shareholders’ Representative, who shall be the person(s)
appointed as such in the Shareholders’ Representative Agreement, or such subsequent or other person as may be appointed in accordance with the Shareholders’ Representative Agreement, pursuant to which agreement the Shareholders’
Representative is or will be appointed as the agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to the matters set forth therein, including any matters relating to this Agreement and the Transactions. All payments of cash to be paid toward any shareholder or
ex-shareholder of the Company pursuant to the Transactions, whether by the Company, Merger Sub, or Parent, or any of them, hereunder, including without limitation the Pre-Closing Consideration, the Merger Consideration, the Adjustment, or any
payment pursuant to the CVR Agreement, shall be paid to the Shareholders’ Account. Parent hereby agrees to be bound by Section 1.1(e) of the Shareholders’ Representative Agreement, including without limitation the provision therein
that any Dispute (as defined therein) with respect to the existence of a conflict of interest shall be resolved in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Shareholders’ Representative Agreement. 

(b) For avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary: upon
each such respective payment to the Shareholders’ Account, all obligations whatsoever of the Company, Escrow Agent, Merger Sub and/or Parent with respect such payment and the safeguarding, investment, allocation and/or distribution thereof
shall be exhausted and shall cease; and the shareholders/ex-shareholders of the Company /holders of CVRs shall have no rights or remedies whatsoever against the Company, Escrow Agent, Merger Sub and/or Parent with respect to such payment, but
instead must look solely and exclusively to any available rights or remedies (if any) they might have against the Shareholders’ Representative. 
 Section 5.12. Mutual Release of Claims and Waiver and Covenant Not To Sue 
 This Section 5.12 shall become effective upon, and only upon, the Effective Time. In consideration of the mutual releases and covenants contained hereunder, and other good and valuable consideration,
the sufficiency and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged and agreed, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, each hereby release, relinquish and forever discharge and forgive the other, and their respective

 ARTICLE VII 

TERMINATION 

Section 7.01. Termination. 
 This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger may be abandoned (before or after the obtaining of the Company Stockholder Approval): 

(a) by mutual written consent of the Company and Parent at any time before the Effective Time; 

(b) by either Parent or the Company if, as of the day that is 30 calendar days after the day on which this Agreement is
executed by the last to sign of Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company (the “Outside Date”), the Company Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained (provided, that the Company may not so terminate if the reason the Company
Stockholder Approval was not so obtained was the Company’s failure to perform one or more of its covenants and agreements hereunder, including under Section 5.04, or a major shareholder’s breach of contractual obligations);

 (c) by Parent or the Company at any time after the Outside Date if the Effective Time shall not have occurred
on or before the Outside Date (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) shall not be available to any party where the failure of such party (or any Affiliate or Representative of such
party) to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement, other than the failure to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval (which shall be governed by Section 7.01(b)), has resulted in the failure of the Effective Time to have occurred on
or before the Outside Date); 
 (d) by Parent or the Company if there shall be any Legal Prohibition in effect
preventing the consummation of the Merger and which Legal Prohibition, following written notice thereof from the Company to Parent or vice versa, is not cured, or is incapable of being cured, on or before the Outside Date.; provided,
however, that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.01(d) if the existence of the Legal Prohibition is attributable to the failure of such party (or any Affiliate or Representative
of such party) to perform in any material respect any covenant in this Agreement required to be performed by such party (or any Affiliate or Representative of such party) at or before the Effective Time, and provided, further, that the
party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.01(d) shall have used its reasonable best efforts to prevent such Legal Prohibition and to cause any such Legal Prohibition to be vacated or otherwise rendered of no
effect as soon as possible and in any event by the Outside Date; 

  
 46 

 (e) by Parent or the Company if after completion of the
Section 5.03(d) process the Company Board authorizes and directs the Company, subject to complying with the terms of this Agreement, to accept (or to enter into a written agreement for a transaction constituting) a Superior Proposal,
subject to Section 7.03 below; 
 (f) by Parent at any time before the Effective Time if:
(i) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall not be true and correct on and as of the date of such determination as if made on such date (other than those representations and warranties that address
matters only as of a particular date, which shall be true and correct as of such date), except where the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true and correct (without giving effect to any Company Material Adverse Effect or other
materiality qualifications set forth therein) would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or impair in any material respect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
this Agreement; or (ii) the Company shall have, in any material respect, breached or failed to perform or comply with any obligation, agreement or covenant required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it, which breach or
failure (in each case under clauses (i) and (ii)), following written notice thereof from Parent to the Company, is not cured, or is incapable of being cured, on or before the Outside Date; or 

(g) by the Company at any time before the Effective Time if: (i) the representations and warranties of Parent or
Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement shall not be true and correct on and as of the date of such determination as if made on such date (other than those representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular date, which shall
be true and correct as of such date), except where the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true and correct (without giving effect to any Parent Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications set forth therein) would
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect or impair in any material respect the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to perform their obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) Parent or
Merger Sub shall have, in any material respect, breached or failed to perform or comply with any obligation, agreement or covenant required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by them, which breach or failure (in each case under
clauses (i) and (ii)), following written notice thereof from the Company to Parent, is not cured, or is incapable of being cured, on or before the Outside Date. 
 Section 7.02. Effect of Termination. 
 In the event of the
termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.01, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party or parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made and this Agreement shall
be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that: (a) Article VIII and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) the
termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any liability or damage that was the result of fraud or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement before the date of such termination.

  
 47 

 Section 7.03. Termination Fee. 

(a) If this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(e), then,
within 2 Business Days after such termination, the Company shall pay to Parent by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the Termination Fee. 

(b) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.03 are an
integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that the Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Sub, as the case may be, in the
circumstances in which such Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the
Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. 
 (c) In circumstances
under which the Termination Fee is payable and has been paid, Parent and Merger Sub agree that, to the extent they have incurred losses or damages in connection with this Agreement other than as a result of fraud or intentional misconduct, their
sole and exclusive remedy against the Company and any of its directors, officers, Affiliates or Representatives, and the Shareholders’ Representative, for any breach, loss, or damage shall be to receive payment of the Termination Fee to the
extent provided in this Section 7.03 and (ii) upon payment in full of such amount, (y) neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall have any other rights or claims or seek damages against the Company or any of its directors, officers,
Affiliates or Representatives, or the Shareholders’ Representative, under this Agreement or otherwise, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, other than as a result of fraud or intentional misconduct and (z) neither
the Company nor any of its directors, officers, Affiliates or Representatives, nor the Shareholders’ Representative, shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, other than as
a result of fraud or intentional misconduct.

8.02. Waiver. 
 (a) No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy
under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such
power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. 
 (b) No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege
or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given. 

  
 48 

 Section 8.03. Entire Agreement; Counterparts. 

This Agreement, the CVR Agreement, the other agreements referred to herein, and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute
the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 Section 8.04. Applicable Legal Requirements; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

the State of Delaware, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such court (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Legal Proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
Legal Requirements, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of such Legal Proceeding in any such court or that any such Legal Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of
the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Legal Requirements. Each party to this Agreement
irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.08. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Legal

Section 8.07. Assignability; No Third Party Rights. 

Before the Effective Time, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be
assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of a Legal Requirement or otherwise, by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. This Agreement shall be
binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Parent shall not consolidate with or merge
into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless the Person formed by such consolidation or into which Parent is merged or the Person that acquires by conveyance or

 Section 8.09. Severability. 
 Any term or provision of this
Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any
other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall
have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention
of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith
to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

Specific Performance. 
 The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the

waive any requirement for the posting of, or securing of, a bond in connection with any such remedy. 
 Section 8.12.
Remedies. 
 All rights and remedies of either party hereto are cumulative of each other and of every other
right or remedy such party may otherwise have at law or in equity, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the concurrent or subsequent exercise of other rights or remedies. 

  
 52

versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include the masculine and feminine genders. 

(b) The parties hereto agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 (c) As used in
this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 

(d) Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Articles,” “Sections” and
“Exhibits” are intended to refer to Articles, Sections or Exhibits to this Agreement, as the case may be.

actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to effect and to more perfectly evidence the Merger and the Transactions, including, but not limited to, making filings, recordings or publications required under the DGCL. Without
