        shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms.

    Section 2.  Non-Solicit.  The Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate,
        solicit, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate inquiries or proposals with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage or participate in any negotiations with any person concerning any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) provide any
        confidential or nonpublic information or data to, or have or participate in any discussions with, any person relating to any Acquisition Proposal (except to disclose the existence of the provisions of this Section), or (iv) recommend or endorse an
        Acquisition Proposal or publicly disclose your intention to do so.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Shareholder, in his or her capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, from taking any
        action in such capacity to the extent such action is permitted by the Merger Agreement or consistent with his or her obligations or rights under the Merger Agreement as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

    Section 3.  Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder.

    (a) Representations and Warranties.  The Shareholder represents and warrants to Parent as follows:

    (i) Power and Authority; Consents.  The Shareholder has the requisite capacity and authority to enter into and perform his obligations under this Agreement.  No filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any
        Governmental Entity is necessary on the part of the Shareholder for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Shareholder or the consummation by the Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby.

    (ii) Due Authorization.  This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Shareholder and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent, this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding
        agreement of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms (except in all cases as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of
        creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies).

    (iii) Non-Contravention.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder does not, and the performance by the Shareholder of his obligations hereunder and the consummation by the Shareholder of the transactions contemplated
        hereby will not, violate or conflict with, or constitute a default under, any agreement, instrument, contract or other obligation or any order, arbitration award, judgment or decree to which the Shareholder is a party or by which the Shareholder or
        his property or assets is bound, or any statute, rule or regulation to which the Shareholder or his property or assets is subject.  The Shareholder has not appointed or granted a proxy or power of attorney to any person with respect to any Shares
        that remains in effect.  Except for this Agreement, the

    
      - 3 -

      

      

    

    Shareholder is not a party to any voting agreement, voting trust or any other contract with respect to the voting, transfer or ownership of any Shares.

    (iv) Ownership of Shares.  Except for restrictions in favor of Parent pursuant to this Agreement and transfer restrictions of general applicability as may be provided under the Securities Act and the “blue sky” laws of the various States
        of the United States, the Shareholder owns, beneficially and of record, all of the Shares free and clear of any proxy, voting restriction, adverse claim, or other Lien, and has sole voting power and sole power of disposition with respect to the
        Shares with no restrictions on the Shareholder’s rights of voting or disposition pertaining thereto, and no person other than the Shareholder has any right to direct or approve the voting or disposition of any of the Shares.  As of the date hereof,
        the number of the Shares is set forth below the Shareholder’s signature on the signature page hereto.  The Shareholder has possession of an outstanding certificate or outstanding certificates representing all of the Shares (other than Shares held
        in book-entry form) and such certificate or certificates does or do not contain any legend or restriction inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

    (v) Legal Actions.  There is no action, suit, investigation, complaint or other proceeding pending against the Shareholder or, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, any other person or, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, threatened
        against the Shareholder or any other person that restricts or prohibits (or, if successful, would restrict or prohibit) the exercise by Parent of its rights under this Agreement or the performance by the Shareholder of its obligations under this
        Agreement.

    (vi) Reliance.  The Shareholder understands and acknowledges that Parent is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Shareholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations and warranties of the
        Shareholder contained herein.

    Section 4.  Termination.  This Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (a) the
        Effective Time and (b) the date of termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Expiration Time”); provided that this Section 4 and Section 5 shall survive
        the Expiration Time indefinitely; provided, further that no such termination or expiration shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any intentional
        breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination.

    Section 5.  Miscellaneous.

    (a) Expenses.  All expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.

    (d) Successors and Assigns.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of
        the other parties hereto.  Any purported assignment in contravention hereof shall be null and void.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their
        respective successors and permitted assigns.

    (e) Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties
        set forth herein.

    (f) No Partnership, Agency, or Joint Venture.  This Agreement is intended to create, and creates, a contractual relationship and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like
        relationship between the parties hereto.

    (g) Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with
        respect to the subject matter hereof.

    (h) Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of
        this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in
        such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction such that the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

    (i) Specific Performance; Remedies Cumulative.  The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed by the Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly,
        that Parent shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which Parent may be entitled
        at law or in equity.  The Shareholder hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to
        obtaining equitable relief.

    (j) No Waiver.  The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law

    
      - 6 -

      

      

    

    

    

    or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall
      not constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance.

    (k) Governing Law.  This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the
        State of Tennessee, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles.

    (l) Submission to Jurisdiction.  Each party agrees that it will bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby exclusively in any federal or state
        court located in the State of Tennessee (the “Chosen Courts”), and, solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement or the transactions that are the subject of this Agreement, (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive
        jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Chosen Courts, (iii) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any
        party and (iv) agrees that service of process upon such party in any such action or proceeding will be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 5(b).

    (m) Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
        UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AT THE TIME OF INSTITUTION OF THE APPLICABLE LITIGATION, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
        AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
        EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT
        BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5(m)

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