or satisfied. 

The
Stockholder shall retain, at all times, the right to vote its Owned Shares in its sole discretion and without any other limitation on those matters other than those set forth in this

Affiliates, as of the date of this Voting Agreement, there is no Action pending or threatened before any Governmental Authority against the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates or any of

its obligations hereunder. To the knowledge of the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates, as of the date of this Voting Agreement, there is no judgment, decree or order against the
Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates, or any of their respective directors or officers (in their capacities as such), in the

the other agreements referred to therein constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto

        5.2    No Survival of Representations and Warranties.    The representations and
warranties made by the Stockholder in this Voting Agreement shall not survive any termination of the Merger Agreement or this Voting Agreement. 

        5.3    Assignment.    The provisions of this Voting Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Voting Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Voting
Agreement shall be assigned by any party to this Voting Agreement (by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Voting Agreement. 

        5.4    Severability.    If any term or other provision of this Voting Agreement is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Voting Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

agrees that none of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy
referred to in this Section 5.5, and the Stockholder irrevocably waives any right he, she or it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such

and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. 

        5.7    No Waiver.    No failure or delay by any party hereto in exercising any right,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege. None of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have waived any claim available to such party arising out of this Voting Agreement, or any right, power or privilege hereunder, unless
the waiver is expressly set forth in writing duly executed and delivered on behalf of such waiving party. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or

authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any third party or any governmental or regulatory authority, domestic or foreign, except where the failure to obtain such consents,
approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not interfere with the Stockholder's ability to perform his, her or its obligations hereunder. 

        3.3    Litigation.    To the knowledge of the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's
Affiliates, as of the date of this Voting Agreement, there is no Action pending or threatened before any Governmental Authority against the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates or any of

its obligations hereunder. To the knowledge of the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates, as of the date of this Voting Agreement, there is no judgment, decree or order against the
Stockholder or any of the Stockholder's Affiliates, or any of their respective directors or officers (in their capacities as such), in the

to perform its obligations hereunder.

held of record or Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder as of the date hereof, will be) the record or beneficial owner of the Owned Shares and has (or, with respect to the Owned Shares not held of

ARTICLE V    
    
    GENERAL PROVISIONS    
    

        5.1    Entire Agreement; Amendments.    This Voting Agreement, the Merger Agreement and
the other agreements referred to therein constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Voting Agreement may not be amended or modified except in an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, the parties hereto. 

        5.2    No Survival of Representations and Warranties.    The representations and
warranties made by the Stockholder in this Voting Agreement shall not survive any termination of the Merger Agreement or this Voting Agreement. 

        5.3    Assignment.    The provisions of this Voting Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Voting Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Voting
Agreement shall be assigned by any party to this Voting Agreement (by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Voting Agreement. 

        5.4    Severability.    If any term or other provision of this Voting Agreement is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Voting Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.
Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Voting Agreement so as to
effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner. 

        5.5    Specific Performance.    The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would
occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Voting Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. The Stockholder agrees that, in the event of any
breach or threatened breach by the Stockholder of any covenant or obligation contained in this Voting Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to seek and obtain (a) a decree or order
of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. The Stockholder further
agrees that none of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy
referred to in this Section 5.5, and the Stockholder irrevocably waives any right he, she or it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such
bond or similar instrument. 

        5.6    Governing Law.    This Voting Agreement, and all claims or causes of action
(whether at Law, in contract or in tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Voting Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. 

        5.7    No Waiver.    No failure or delay by any party hereto in exercising any right,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege. None of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have waived any claim available to such party arising out of this Voting Agreement, or any right, power or privilege hereunder, unless
the waiver is expressly set forth in writing duly executed and delivered on behalf of such waiving party. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
remedies provided by Law.
