 EXECUTION COPY 
 RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

This Rights Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of March 12, 2012 and is made between Great Wolf Resorts,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Registrar and Transfer Company, as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”). 
 RECITALS 
 The Board of Directors of the Company (the
“Board”) has authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each Common Share (as such term is hereinafter defined) outstanding at the Close of Business (as
such term is hereinafter defined) on March 23, 2012 (the “Record Date”), each Right representing the right to purchase one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (as such term is hereinafter defined), upon the terms and subject
to the conditions herein set forth, and has further authorized and directed the issuance of one (1) Right with respect to each Common Share that shall become outstanding between the Record Date and the earliest to occur of the Distribution
Date, the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date (as such terms are hereinafter defined); provided, however, that Rights may be issued with respect to Common Shares that shall become outstanding after the Distribution Date and prior to
the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof. 

The Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Merger
Agreement”), dated March 12, 2012, among the Company, K-9 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and K-9 Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent
(“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”). 

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Parent shall cause Merger Sub to commence a tender offer (the
“Tender Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding Common Shares, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. 
 AGREEMENT 
 Accordingly, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this
Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated: 
  

	 	(a)	 “Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person who or that, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, without the prior
written approval of the Board, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 12.5% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the term Acquiring Person shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary
(as such term is hereinafter defined) of the Company, (iii) any employee benefit or compensation plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, (iv) any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such employee
benefit or compensation plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or (v) any Person who or that, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, is the Beneficial Owner of 12.5% or more of the Common Shares outstanding
as of the date of this Agreement until such time after the date of this Agreement that such Person, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, shall become the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares (other than by means of
a dividend made by the Company on the Common Shares outstanding or pursuant to a split, subdivision or other reclassification of the Common Shares undertaken by the Company) and shall then beneficially own more than 12.5% of

	 	
the Common Shares then outstanding, and (B) no Person shall become an “Acquiring Person” (x) as the result of an acquisition of Common Shares by the Company that, by reducing
the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person to 12.5% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person shall become the Beneficial Owner of
12.5% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, following written notice from, or public disclosure by, the Company of such share purchases by the Company, become the Beneficial Owner of any
additional Common Shares without the prior written approval of the Board (other than by means of a dividend made by the Company on the Common Shares outstanding or pursuant to a split, subdivision or other reclassification of the Common Shares
undertaken by the Company) and shall then be the Beneficial Owner of more than 12.5% of the Common Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person,” (y) as the result of the acquisition of Common
Shares directly from the Company, provided, however, that if a Person shall become the Beneficial Owner of 12.5% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding by reason of Common Share acquisitions directly from the Company and shall, after
that date, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares without the prior written approval of the Board (other than by means of a dividend made by the Company on the Common Shares outstanding or pursuant to a split, subdivision or
other reclassification of the Common Shares undertaken by the Company) and shall then beneficially own more than 12.5% of the Common Shares then outstanding, then such Person shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” or (z) if the
Board determines in good faith that a Person who would otherwise be an “Acquiring Person,” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(b), has become such inadvertently (including, without limitation, because
(1) such Person was unaware that it beneficially owned 12.5% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding or (2) such Person was aware of the extent of its Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares but had no actual knowledge of the
consequences of such Beneficial Ownership under this Agreement) and had no intention of obtaining, changing or influencing the control of the Company, and such Person divests, as promptly as practicable (as determined in good faith by the Board),
following receipt of written notice from the Company of such event, of Beneficial Ownership of a sufficient number of Common Shares so that such Person would no longer be an Acquiring Person, as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 1(b), then such Person shall not be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” for any purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that if such Person shall again become the Beneficial Owner of 12.5% or more of the Common
Shares then outstanding, such Person shall be deemed an “Acquiring Person,” subject to the exceptions set forth in this Section 1(b). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Parent nor Merger Sub (or any of
Parent or Merger Sub’s Affiliates or Associates) shall be or become an “Acquiring Person” by reason of, and the term “Acquiring Person” shall not include Parent or Merger Sub (or any Affiliates or Associates of Parent or
Merger Sub) by reason of, (i) the approval, execution and/or delivery of the Merger Agreement or the approval, execution and/or delivery of any amendment thereto, (ii) the commencement or consummation of the Tender Offer, (iii) the
approval, execution and/or delivery of any other contract or instrument in each case entered into by the Company in connection with the Merger Agreement or the Tender Offer or the approval, execution and/or delivery of any amendment thereto,
(iv) the Merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company pursuant to, and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in, the Merger Agreement, (v) the consummation of the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement, the Tender Offer or the contracts or other instruments referred to in clause (iii) above (the Merger Agreement, the Tender Offer documents and such other contracts and instruments are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the
“Merger Transaction Agreements”), or (vi) the announcement of any of the Merger Transaction Agreements, the Merger, the Tender Offer or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Transaction Agreements, or
the announcement of any consummation thereof. 

  

	 	(b)	“Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Rule 12b-2 under the
Exchange Act as in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the limited partners of a limited partnership shall not be deemed to be Associates of such limited partnership solely by virtue of their limited partnership
interests.

	 	(ii)	that such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has (A) the right to acquire (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after
certain events or after the passage of time) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights (other than the Rights), warrants or options, or
otherwise; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any of such Person’s
Affiliates or Associates until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange or cease to be subject to withdrawal by the tendering security holder; or (B) the right to vote pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or
understanding, whether or not in writing; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, any security if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such security (1) arises
solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person in response to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (2) is not
also then reportable on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (or any comparable or successor report); 

  

	 	(iii)	that are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any other Person (or an Affiliate or Associate thereof) with which such Person (or any of such Person’s
Affiliates or Associates) has (A) any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except to the extent contemplated by the proviso to Section 1(c)(ii)(B) hereof) or

	 	(iv)	that are the subject of, or the reference securities for, or that underlie, any Derivative Interest of such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or
Associates, with the number of Common Shares deemed Beneficially Owned being the notional or other number of Common Shares specified in the documentation evidencing the Derivative Interest as being subject to be acquired upon the exercise or
settlement of the Derivative Interest or as the basis upon which the value or settlement amount of such Derivative Interest is to be calculated in whole or in part or, if no such number of Common Shares is specified in such documentation, as
determined by the Board in its sole discretion to be the number of Common Shares to which the Derivative Interest relates. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the phrase, “then outstanding,” when used with reference to a Person’s Beneficial Ownership of securities of the Company, shall mean
the number of such securities then issued and outstanding together with the number of such securities not then actually issued and outstanding that such Person would be deemed to beneficially own hereunder; (ii) nothing contained in this
Section 1(d) shall cause a Person ordinarily engaged in business as an underwriter of securities to be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of, or to “beneficially own”, or to have “Beneficial Ownership” of, any

  
 3 

 
securities acquired or to be acquired in either (A) a bona fide underwritten public offering of securities pursuant to an underwriting agreement entered into by the Company and such Person
or (B) a bona fide offering of securities pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act pursuant to a purchase agreement entered into by the Company and such Person; and (iii) no director or officer of the Company shall be deemed to
Beneficially Own securities Beneficially Owned by any other director or officer of the Company solely as a result of actions taken by such directors or officers in their capacities as directors, officers, agents or employees of the Company.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither any party to any of the Merger Transaction Agreements nor any of such Party’s
Affiliates or Associates shall be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of any Common Shares held by any other party to any such Merger Transaction Agreement solely by virtue of the execution and delivery of any such Merger Transaction Agreement or any
amendment thereof or the performance of such party’s rights and obligations under any such Merger Transaction Agreement or any such amendment.

	 	(h)	“Common Shares” shall mean the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company; provided, however, that, “Common
Shares,” when used in this Agreement in connection with a specific reference to any Person other than the Company, shall mean the shares of the class or series of capital stock (or equity interest) with the greatest voting power of such other

 SECTION 3. ISSUE
OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES. 
  

	 	(a)	 Until the earlier of the Close of Business on (i) the tenth (10th) calendar day after the Shares Acquisition Date (or, in the event that the Board determines on or before such
tenth (10th) calendar day to effect an

(10th) Business Day (or such later date as may be
determined by action of the Board prior to such time as any Person becomes an Acquiring Person) after the date of the commencement (determined in accordance with Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) by any Person (other than the Company, any
Subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company or any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, Parent, Merger Sub or any Affiliates or Associates of Parent

Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, Parent, Merger Sub or any Affiliates or Associates of Parent or Merger Sub) to commence, a tender or exchange offer (which intention to commence remains in effect for five (5) Business Days
after such announcement), the consummation of which would result in any Person becoming an Acquiring Person (including any such date that is after the date of this Agreement and prior to the issuance of the Rights, the earlier of such dates being
herein referred to as the “Distribution Date”), (x) the Rights will be evidenced (unless earlier expired, redeemed or terminated) by the certificates for Common Shares (which certificates shall also be deemed to be Right
Certificates) or, in the case of uncertificated shares, by the balances indicated in the book-entry account system of the transfer agent for the Common Shares (together with a transaction advise with respect to such shares), registered in the names
of the holders thereof and not by separate Right Certificates, and (y) the Rights (and the right to receive Right Certificates therefor) will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of Common Shares. As soon as practicable after
the Distribution Date, the Company will prepare and execute, the Rights Agent will countersign, and the Company will send or cause to be sent (and the Rights Agent will, if requested, send) by first-class, postage-prepaid mail, to each record holder
of Common Shares as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, at the address of such holder shown on the records of the Company or on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, as appropriate, a Right Certificate, in
substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Right Certificate”), evidencing one (1) Right for each Common Share so held, subject to the adjustment provisions of Section 11. As of the Distribution Date, the
Rights will be evidenced solely by such Right Certificates. The foregoing or any provision to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, a Distribution Date shall not occur or be deemed to have occurred as a result of the approval, execution,
delivery or performance of the Merger Transaction Agreements or the announcement or consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case in accordance with, pursuant to and upon the terms and conditions of the Merger Transaction
Agreements. 

  

	 	(b)	On the Record Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Company will send (directly or through the Rights Agent or its transfer agent) a copy of a Summary of
Rights to Purchase Preferred Shares, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (the “Summary of Rights”), by first-class, postage-prepaid mail, to each record holder of Common Shares as of the Close of Business on
the Record Date, at the address of such holder shown on the records of the Company. With respect to certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date, until the Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced by such certificates or
book-entry accounts (together with the transaction advice with respect to such shares) registered in the names of the holders thereof. Until the Distribution Date (or the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date), the surrender
for transfer of any Common Shares outstanding on the Record Date shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares. 

  
 7 

	 	(c)	Certificates or transaction advices, as applicable, for Common Shares that become outstanding after the Record Date but prior to the earliest of the Distribution Date,
the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date shall have impressed on, printed on, written on or otherwise affixed to them substantially the following legend: 

 THIS CERTIFICATE ALSO EVIDENCES AND ENTITLES THE HOLDER HEREOF TO CERTAIN RIGHTS AS SET FORTH IN A RIGHTS AGREEMENT BETWEEN GREAT WOLF RESORTS, INC. (THE “COMPANY”) AND REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER
COMPANY, AS RIGHTS AGENT (THE “RIGHTS AGENT”), DATED AS OF MARCH 12, 2012, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME (THE “RIGHTS AGREEMENT”), THE TERMS OF WHICH ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE
AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, AS SET FORTH IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, SUCH RIGHTS WILL BE EVIDENCED BY SEPARATE CERTIFICATES AND WILL NO LONGER BE EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE. THE COMPANY WILL MAIL
TO THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE A COPY OF THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT WITHOUT CHARGE AFTER RECEIPT OF A WRITTEN REQUEST THEREFOR ADDRESSED TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. AS DESCRIBED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, RIGHTS ISSUED TO ANY PERSON WHO BECOMES AN
ACQUIRING PERSON OR AN AFFILIATE OR ASSOCIATE THEREOF (AS DEFINED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT) AND CERTAIN RELATED PERSONS, WHETHER CURRENTLY HELD BY OR ON BEHALF OF SUCH PERSON OR BY ANY SUBSEQUENT HOLDER, SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID. 

With respect to the Common Shares, until the earliest of the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration Date, the
Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificates or held in such book-entry accounts shall be evidenced by such certificates or such book-entry accounts (together with the transaction advice with respect to such shares)
alone, and the transfer of any Common Shares, whether by transfer of such certificate or such book-entry shares, shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares. In the event that the Company purchases or acquires
any Common Shares after the Record Date but prior to the Distribution Date, any Rights associated with such Common Shares shall be deemed canceled and retired so that the Company shall not be entitled to exercise any Rights associated with the
Common Shares that are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding this Section 3(c), the omission of a legend shall not affect the enforceability of any part of this Agreement or the rights of any holder of the Rights. 

 

	 	(d)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Common Shares and Rights (and any securities issuable on their exercise) may be issued and transferred by
book-entry and not represented by physical certificates. Where Common Shares and Rights (and any securities issuable on their exercise) are held in uncertificated form, the Company and the Rights Agent shall cooperate in all respects to give effect
to the intent of the provisions contained herein. 

 SECTION 4. FORM OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES. 

 

	 	(a)	The Right Certificates (and the form of election to purchase Preferred Shares, the form of assignment and the form of certification to be printed on the reverse
thereof) shall be substantially the same as Exhibit A hereto and may have such marks of identification or designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent
with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Rights may from
time to time be listed, or to conform to usage. Subject to the provisions of Sections 7, 11 and 22 hereof, the Right Certificates shall entitle the holders thereof to purchase such number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share as shall be
set forth therein at the Purchase Price, but the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share and the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. 

  
 8 

	 	(b)	Any Right Certificate issued pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 22 hereof that represents Rights that are null and void pursuant to the second paragraph of
Section 11(a)(ii) hereof and any Right Certificate issued pursuant to Section 6 or Section 11 hereof upon transfer, exchange, replacement or adjustment of any other Right Certificate referred to in this sentence shall contain (to the
extent feasible) substantially the following legend: 

 THE RIGHTS REPRESENTED BY THIS RIGHT CERTIFICATE ARE OR
WERE BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY A PERSON WHO WAS OR BECAME AN ACQUIRING PERSON OR AN AFFILIATE OR ASSOCIATE OF AN ACQUIRING PERSON (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE RIGHTS AGREEMENT). ACCORDINGLY, THIS RIGHT CERTIFICATE AND THE RIGHTS REPRESENTED HEREBY
ARE NULL AND VOID. 
 The provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof shall be operative whether or not the foregoing legend is
contained on any such Right Certificate. 
 SECTION 5. COUNTERSIGNATURE AND REGISTRATION. The Right Certificates shall be
executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Financial Officer, or any of its Vice Presidents, either manually or by facsimile signature, and
shall be attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right Certificates shall be countersigned by the Rights Agent either manually or by facsimile signature and shall not be
valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Right Certificates shall cease to be such an officer before countersignature by the Rights Agent and issuance and delivery by the
Company, such Right Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Rights Agent and issued and delivered by the Company with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Right Certificates had not ceased to be such an
officer; and any Right Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Right Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Right Certificate, although at the date
of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such an officer. 
 Following the Distribution Date, the Rights Agent
will keep or cause to be kept, at its office designated for such purpose, books for registration and transfer of the Right Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Right
Certificates, the number of Rights evidenced on its face by each of the Right Certificates, the certificate number of each Right Certificate and the date of each of the Right Certificates. 

SECTION 6. TRANSFER, SPLIT UP, COMBINATION AND EXCHANGE OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES; MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. Subject to the provisions of Sections 11(a)(ii), 14 and 24 hereof, at any time after the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and prior to the Close of Business on the earlier of the Redemption Date or the Final Expiration
Date, any Right Certificate or Right Certificates may be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right Certificates, entitling the registered holder to purchase a like number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred
Share as the Right Certificate or Right Certificates surrendered then entitled such holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to transfer, split up, combine or exchange any Right Certificate or Right Certificates shall make such request in
writing delivered to the Rights Agent, and shall surrender the Right Certificate or Right Certificates to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose. Neither the Rights Agent nor the
Company shall be obligated to take any action whatsoever with respect to the transfer of any such surrendered Right Certificate until the registered holder shall have completed and signed the certificate contained in the form of assignment on the
reverse side of such Right Certificate and shall have provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company shall reasonably request. Thereupon the
Rights Agent shall, subject to Sections 11(a)(ii), 14 and 24 hereof, countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Right Certificate or Right Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination or exchange of Right Certificates. 

  
 9 

 Upon receipt by the Company and the Rights Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them
of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Right Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to them, and, at the Company’s request, reimbursement to the Company and the
Rights Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate if mutilated, the Company will issue, execute and deliver a new Right Certificate of like tenor to the
Rights Agent for countersignature and delivery to the registered holder in lieu of the Right Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. 
 SECTION 7. EXERCISE OF RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE; EXPIRATION DATE OF RIGHTS. 
  

	 	(a)	The registered holder of any Right Certificate may exercise the Rights evidenced thereby (except as otherwise provided herein) in whole or in part at any time after the
Distribution Date upon surrender of the Right Certificate, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse side thereof properly completed and duly executed, to the Rights Agent at the office of the Rights Agent designated for such purpose,
together with payment of the Purchase Price (and an amount equal to any applicable transfer tax or other governmental charge) in cash, or by certified check, cashier’s check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company for
each one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (or such other number of shares or other securities) as to which the Rights are exercised, prior to the earliest of (i) (A) the Close of Business on the Business Day which occurs immediately prior to
the first anniversary of the date hereof or (B) immediately prior to the earlier to occur of the Acceptance Time and the Effective Time (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Final Expiration Date”),
(ii) the time at which the Rights are redeemed as provided in Section 23 hereof (the “Redemption Date”), or (iii) the time at which such Rights are exchanged as provided in Section 24 hereof.

  

	 	(b)	The purchase price for each one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share pursuant to the exercise of a Right shall initially be $5.00 (the “Purchase
Price”) and shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 11 and Section 13 hereof and shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America in accordance with Section 7(c) below.

  

	 	(c)	Upon receipt of a Right Certificate representing exercisable Rights, with the form of election to purchase properly completed and duly executed, accompanied by payment
of the Purchase Price for the shares to be purchased and an amount equal to any applicable tax or charge required to be paid by the holder of such Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9 hereof by certified check, cashier’s check,
bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, the Rights Agent shall thereupon promptly (i) (A) requisition from any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares (or make available, if the Rights Agent is the transfer agent
therefor) certificates for the number of Preferred Shares to be purchased and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes its transfer agent to comply with all such requests, or (B) if the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have elected to
deposit the Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of the Rights hereunder into a depository, requisition from the depositary agent depositary receipts representing such number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share as are to be purchased (in
which case certificates for the Preferred Shares represented by such receipts shall be deposited by the transfer agent with the depositary agent) and the Company hereby directs the depositary agent to comply with such request, (ii) when
appropriate, requisition from the Company the amount of cash to be paid in lieu of issuance of fractional shares in accordance with Section 14 hereof, (iii) after receipt of such certificates or depositary receipts, cause the same to be
delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Right Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder and (iv) when appropriate, after receipt, deliver such cash to or upon the order of the
registered holder of such Right Certificate. In the event that the Company is obligated to issue securities of the Company other than Preferred Shares (including Common Shares) of the Company pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the Company will
make all arrangements necessary so that such other securities are available for distribution by the Rights Agent, if and when appropriate. 

  
 10 

 In addition, in the case of an exercise of the Rights by a holder pursuant to
Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Rights Agent shall return such Right Certificate to the registered holder thereof after imprinting, stamping or otherwise indicating thereon that the rights represented by such Right Certificate no longer include
the rights provided by Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, and, if fewer than all the Rights represented by such Right Certificate were so exercised, the Rights Agent shall indicate on the Right Certificate the number of Rights represented thereby that
continue to include the rights provided by Section 11(a)(ii) hereof. 
  

	 	(d)	In case the registered holder of any Right Certificate shall exercise fewer than all the Rights evidenced thereby (other than a partial exercise of rights pursuant to
Section 11(a)(ii) as described in Section 7(c) hereof), a new Right Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent to the Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the registered holder of such Right Certificate or to
the duly authorized assigns of such holder, subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof. 

  

	 	(e)	The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued Preferred Shares or any Preferred Shares held
in its treasury, the number of Preferred Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights in accordance with this Section 7. 

 

	 	(f)	Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated to undertake any action with respect to a
registered holder upon the occurrence of any purported exercise as set forth in this Section 7 unless such registered holder shall have (i) completed and signed the certification following the form of election to purchase set forth on the
reverse side of the Right Certificate surrendered for such exercise, (ii) tendered the Purchase Price (and an amount equal to any applicable transfer tax required to be paid by the holder of such Right Certificate in accordance with
Section 9) to the Company in the manner set forth in Section 7(c), and (iii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company
shall reasonably request. 

 SECTION 8. CANCELLATION AND DESTRUCTION OF RIGHT CERTIFICATES. All Right
Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, transfer, split up, combination or exchange shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Rights Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or, if delivered
or surrendered to the Rights Agent, shall be canceled by it, and no Right Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall deliver to the Rights Agent for
cancellation and retirement, and the Rights Agent shall so cancel and retire, any other Right Certificate purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof. Subject to applicable law and regulation, the Rights Agent shall
maintain in a retrievable database electronic records of all cancelled or destroyed stock certificates which have been canceled or destroyed by the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent shall maintain such electronic records or physical records for the
time period required by applicable law and regulation. Upon written request of the Company (and at the expense of the Company), the Rights Agent shall provide to the Company or its designee copies of such electronic records or physical records
relating to rights certificates cancelled or destroyed by the Rights Agent. 
 SECTION 9. AVAILABILITY OF PREFERRED
SHARES. The Company covenants and agrees that so long as the Preferred Shares (and, after the time a person becomes an Acquiring Person, Common Shares or any other securities) issuable upon the exercise of the Rights may be listed on any
national securities exchange or quotation system, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares reserved for such issuance to be listed on such exchange or quotation system
upon official notice of issuance upon such exercise. 
 The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as
may be necessary to ensure that all Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and other securities, as the case may be) delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and
other securities, as the case may be) (subject to payment of the Purchase Price), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares or other securities. 

  
 11 

 The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all
federal and state transfer taxes and charges that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and other securities, as the case may be) upon the exercise of Rights. The
Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a Person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates or depositary receipts for
the Preferred Shares in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise or to issue or to deliver any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Shares upon the exercise of
any Rights until any such tax shall have been paid (any such tax being payable by the holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that no such tax is due.

 As soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to: 

 

	 	(i)	prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on an appropriate form, will
use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and will use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the
requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date; and 

  

	 	(ii)	use its best efforts to qualify or register the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as may
be necessary or appropriate. 

 The Company may temporarily suspend, for a period of time not to exceed
120 days, the exercisability of the Rights in order to prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act and permit it to become effective. Upon any such suspension, the Company shall issue a public announcement stating that
the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement at such time as the suspension is no longer in effect. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be
exercisable in any jurisdiction unless the requisite qualification in such jurisdiction shall have been obtained and unless a registration statement under the Securities Act (if required) covering the issuance of securities upon exercise of the
Rights is effective. 
 SECTION 10. PREFERRED SHARES RECORD DATE. Each Person in whose name any certificate for Preferred
Shares or other securities is issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Preferred Shares or other securities represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated, the date
upon which the Right Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered with the forms of election and certification duly executed and payment of the Purchase Price (and any applicable transfer taxes) was made; provided, however, that if
the date of such surrender and payment is a date upon which the Preferred Shares or other securities transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the record holder of such shares on, and such certificate shall
be dated, the next succeeding Business Day on which the Preferred Shares or other securities transfer books of the Company are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced thereby, the holder of a Right Certificate, as such, shall not be
entitled to any rights of a holder of Preferred Shares for which the Rights shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions, or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be
entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein. 
 SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENT OF
PURCHASE PRICE, NUMBER OF SHARES OR NUMBER OF RIGHTS. The Purchase Price, the number of Preferred Shares covered by each Right and the number of Rights outstanding are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 11.

  
 12 

	 	(a)	(i) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement (A) declare a dividend on the Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares,
(B) subdivide the outstanding Preferred Shares, (C) combine the outstanding Preferred Shares into a smaller number of Preferred Shares or (D) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Preferred Shares
(including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving entity), except as otherwise provided in this Section 11(a), the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the
record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable on such date, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Right
exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock that, if such Right had been exercised immediately prior to such date and at a time when the Preferred Shares transfer books of the
Company were open, such holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid
upon the exercise of one (1) Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one (1) Right. If an event occurs that would require an adjustment under both
Section 11(a)(i) and Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the adjustment provided for in this Section 11(a)(i) shall be in addition to, and shall be made prior to any adjustment required pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof.

  

	 	(ii)	Subject to Section 24 hereof, in the event any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right shall thereafter have a right to receive, upon exercise
thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of Preferred Shares,
such number of Common Shares as shall equal the result obtained by (A) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable and dividing that product by
(B) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Common Shares (determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the date such Person became an Acquiring Person; provided, however, that if the transaction that would
otherwise give rise to the foregoing adjustment is also subject to the provisions of Section 13 hereof, then only the provisions of Section 13 hereof shall apply and no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 11(a)(ii). In
the event that any Person shall become an Acquiring Person and the Rights shall then be outstanding, the Company shall not take any action that would eliminate or diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the time any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, any Rights
beneficially owned by (i) such Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of such Acquiring Person, (ii) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate) who becomes a transferee after the Acquiring Person
became such, or (iii) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or of any such Associate or Affiliate) who becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with the Acquiring Person’s becoming such and receives such Rights pursuant to either
(A) a transfer (whether or not for consideration) from the Acquiring Person to holders of equity interests in such Acquiring Person or to any Person with whom the Acquiring Person has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding
regarding the transferred Rights or (B) a transfer that the Board has determined is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding that has as a primary purpose or effect the avoidance of this Section 11(a)(ii), shall become null and void
without any further action and no holder of such Rights shall have any rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights, whether under any provision of this Agreement or otherwise. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that the
provisions of this Section 11(a)(ii) and Section 4(b) hereof are complied with, but shall have no liability to any holder of Right Certificates or other Person as a result of the Company’s failure to make any determinations with
respect to an Acquiring Person or its Affiliates, Associates or 

  
 13 

 
transferees hereunder. No Right Certificate shall be issued at any time upon the transfer of any Rights to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the first sentence of this
paragraph or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of such Acquiring Person, Associate or Affiliate; and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent for transfer to any Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the first
sentence of this paragraph shall be canceled. 
  

	 	(iii)	In lieu of issuing Common Shares in accordance with Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Company may, if the Board determines that such action is necessary or appropriate
and not contrary to the interests of holders of Rights, elect to (and, in the event that the Board has not exercised the exchange right contained in Section 24(c) hereof and there are not sufficient treasury shares and authorized but unissued
Common Shares (excluding Common Shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Top-Up Option (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) to permit the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, the Company shall)
take all such action as may be necessary to authorize, issue or pay, upon the exercise of the Rights, cash (including by way of a reduction of the Purchase Price), property, Common Shares, other securities or any combination thereof having an
aggregate value equal to the value of the Common Shares that otherwise would have been issuable pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, which aggregate value shall be determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the
Board. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the value of the Common Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof. Following the Distribution Date, the Board may suspend the exercisability of the Rights for a period of up to
60 days following the Distribution Date to the extent that the Board has not determined whether to exercise its right of election under this Section 11(a)(iii). In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall issue a public
announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended. 

  

	 	(b)	In case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of Preferred Shares entitling them to subscribe for or
purchase (for a period expiring within 45 calendar days after such record date) Preferred Shares (or shares having the same designations and the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the Preferred
Shares (“Equivalent Preferred Shares”)) or securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares at a price per Preferred Share or Equivalent Preferred Share (or having a conversion price per share, if a
security convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares) less than the then current per share market price of the Preferred Shares on such record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined
by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of Preferred Shares that the aggregate
offering price of the total number of Preferred Shares and/or Equivalent Preferred Shares so to be offered (and/or the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such current market price and
the denominator of which shall be the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Preferred Shares and/or Equivalent Preferred Shares to be offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the
convertible securities so to be offered are initially convertible); provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one (1) Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital
stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one (1) Right. In case such subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which shall be in a form other than cash, the value of such consideration shall be as determined in good
faith by the Board, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent. Preferred Shares owned by or held for the account of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such
adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted to be the Purchase Price that would then be in effect if such
record date had not been fixed. 

  
 14 

	 	(c)	In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Shares (including any such distribution made in connection
with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving entity) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend or a dividend payable in Preferred Shares) or subscription rights,
options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 11(b) hereof), the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then current per share market price of the Preferred Shares on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board whose determination shall be described in a statement
filed with the Rights Agent) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so to be distributed or of such subscription rights, options or warrants applicable to one (1) Preferred Share and the denominator of which shall be such
current per share market price of the Preferred Shares; provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one (1) Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the
Company to be issued upon exercise of one (1) Right. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such distribution is not so made, the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the
Purchase Price that would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. 

  

	 	(d)	(i) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “current per share market price” of any security (a “Security” for
the purpose of this Section 11(d)(i)) on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices per share of such Security for the 30 consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to such date; provided, however, that in the
event that the current per share market price of the Security is determined during a period following the announcement by the issuer of such Security of (A) a dividend or distribution on such Security payable in shares of such Security or
securities convertible into such shares, or (B) any subdivision, combination or reclassification of such Security or securities convertible into such shares and prior to the expiration of 30 Trading Days after the ex-dividend date for such
dividend or distribution, or the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification, then, and in each such case, the current per share market price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the current market price per share
equivalent of such Security. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the
principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock
Exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or, if the Security is not
listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported in the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC
Markets, Inc. or such other system then in use, or, if on any such date the Security is not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Security
selected by the Board or, if on any such date no professional market maker is making a market in the Security, the price as determined in good faith by the Board. The term “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the principal
national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or admitted to trading is open for the transaction of business or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, a Business Day.

  

	 	(ii)	 For the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “current per share market price” of the Preferred Shares shall be determined
in accordance with the method set forth in Section 11(d)(i) 

  
 15 

	 	
hereof. If the Preferred Shares are not publicly traded, the “current per share market price” of the Preferred Shares shall be conclusively deemed to be the current per share market
price of the Common Shares as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i) hereof (appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof) multiplied by one hundred. If neither the
Common Shares nor the Preferred Shares are publicly traded, “current per share market price” shall mean the fair value per share as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination shall be set forth in a statement filed with the
Rights Agent. 

  

	 	(e)	No adjustment in the Purchase Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Purchase Price; provided,
however, that any adjustments that by reason of this Section 11(e) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 11 shall be made to the
nearest cent or to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred Share or one one-thousandth of any other share or security as the case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 11(e), any adjustment required by this
Section 11 shall be made no later than the earlier of (i) three (3) years from the date of the transaction that requires such adjustment or (ii) the date of the expiration of the right to exercise any Rights.

  

	 	(f)	If as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the holder of any Right thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive any shares of
capital stock of the Company other than Preferred Shares, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of any Right shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Shares contained in Sections 11(a) through 11(c) hereof, inclusive, and the provisions of Sections 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14 hereof with respect to the Preferred Shares shall apply on like
terms to any such other shares. 

  

	 	(g)	All Rights originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made to the Purchase Price hereunder shall evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted
Purchase Price, the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable from time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. 

 

	 	(h)	Unless the Company shall have exercised its election as provided in Section 11(i) hereof, upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price as a result of the
calculations made in Section 11(b) and Section 11(c) hereof, each Right outstanding immediately prior to the making of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of one
one-hundredths of a Preferred Share (calculated to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred Share) obtained by (i) multiplying (x) the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share covered by a Right immediately prior to this
adjustment by (y) the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the Purchase Price and (ii) dividing the product so obtained by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment of the Purchase Price.

  

	 	(i)	 The Company may elect on or after the date of any adjustment of the Purchase Price to adjust the number of Rights, in substitution for any adjustment
in the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable upon the exercise of a Right. Each of the Rights outstanding after such adjustment of the number of Rights shall be exercisable for the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred
Share for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment. Each Right held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Rights shall become that number of Rights (calculated to the nearest one one-hundredth) obtained by
dividing the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Purchase Price by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjustment of the Purchase Price. The Company shall make a public announcement of its election to adjust
the number of Rights, indicating the record date for the adjustment, and, if known at the time, the amount of the adjustment to be made. 

  
 16 

	 	
This record date may be the date on which the Purchase Price is adjusted or any day thereafter, but, if the Right Certificates have been issued, shall be at least 10 days later than the date
of the public announcement. If Right Certificates have been issued, upon each adjustment of the number of Rights pursuant to this Section 11(i), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be distributed to holders of record of
Right Certificates on such record date Right Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 14 hereof, the additional Rights to which such holders shall be entitled as a result of such adjustment, or, at the option of the Company, shall cause to
be distributed to such holders of record in substitution and replacement for the Right Certificates held by such holders prior to the date of adjustment, and upon surrender thereof, if required by the Company, new Right Certificates evidencing all
the Rights to which such holders shall be entitled after such adjustment. Right Certificates to be so distributed shall be issued, executed and countersigned in the manner provided for herein and shall be registered in the names of the holders of
record of Right Certificates on the record date specified in the public announcement. 

  

	 	(j)	Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the
Right Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Purchase Price and the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share that was expressed in the initial Right Certificates issued hereunder.

  

	 	(k)	Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Purchase Price below one one-hundredth of the then par value, if any, of the Preferred Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Rights, the Company shall take any corporate action that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to enable the Company to validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Preferred Shares at such adjusted
Purchase Price. 

  

	 	(l)	In any case in which this Section 11 shall require that an adjustment in the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the
Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event the issuing to the holder of any Right exercised after such record date of the Preferred Shares and other capital stock or securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise
on the basis of the Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional
shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 

  

	 	(m)	The Company covenants and agrees that, after the Distribution Date, it will not, except as permitted by this Agreement, take (or permit any Subsidiary to take) any
action the purpose of which is to, or if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that the effect of such action is to, materially diminish or eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. Any such action taken
by the Company during any period after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person but prior to the Distribution Date shall be null and void unless such action could be taken under this Section 11(m) from and after the Distribution Date.

  

	 	(n)	Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11 to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Purchase Price, in addition to those
adjustments expressly required by this Section 11, as and to the extent that it in its sole discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any (i) consolidation or subdivision of the Preferred Shares, (ii) issuance wholly
for cash of any Preferred Shares at less than the current market price, (iii) issuance wholly for cash of Preferred Shares or securities that by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for Preferred Shares, (iv) dividends on
Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares or (v) issuance of rights, options or warrants referred to hereinabove in Section 11(b), hereafter made by the Company to holders of its Preferred Shares shall not be taxable to such
stockholders. 

  
 17 

	 	(o)	In the event that at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Distribution Date, the Company shall (i) declare or pay any dividend on the Common
Shares payable in Common Shares or (ii) effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of dividends in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares,
then in any such case (A) the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share purchasable after such event upon proper exercise of each Right shall be determined by multiplying the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share so
purchasable immediately prior to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such
event, and (B) each Common Share outstanding immediately after such event shall have issued with respect to it that number of Rights that each Common Share outstanding immediately prior to such event had issued with respect to it. The
adjustments provided for in this Section 11(o) shall be made successively whenever such a dividend is declared or paid or such a subdivision, combination or consolidation is effected. 

 

	 	(p)	The exercise of Rights under Section 11(a)(ii) hereof shall only result in the loss of rights under Section 11(a)(ii) hereof to the extent so exercised and
shall not otherwise affect the rights represented by the Rights under this Agreement, including the rights represented by Section 13 hereof. 

 SECTION 12. CERTIFICATE OF ADJUSTED PURCHASE PRICE OR NUMBER OF SHARES. Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Sections 11 and 13 hereof, the Company shall promptly
(a) prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment, (b) file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for the Common Shares or the Preferred Shares a copy of
such certificate and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate (or if before the Distribution Date, to each holder of Common Stock) in accordance with Section 25 hereof. The Rights Agent shall be fully
protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment therein contained and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment unless and until it shall have received such certificate. 

SECTION 13. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE OR TRANSFER OF ASSETS OR EARNING POWER. 

 

	 	(a)	 In the event that, following the Distribution Date, directly or indirectly (x) the Company shall consolidate with, or merge with and into, any
Interested Stockholder, or if in such merger or consolidation all holders of Common Stock are not treated alike, any other Person, (y) any Interested Stockholder, or if in such merger or consolidation all holders of Common Stock are not treated
alike, any other Person shall consolidate with the Company, or merge with and into the Company, and the Company shall be the continuing or surviving entity of such merger (other than, in the case of either transaction described in (x) or (y), a
merger or consolidation that would result in all of the voting power represented by the securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into securities of
the surviving entity) all of the voting power represented by the securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and the holders of such securities not having changed as a result of such
merger or consolidation), or (z) the Company shall sell or otherwise transfer (or one (1) or more of its Subsidiaries shall sell or otherwise transfer), in one (1) or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating more than
50% of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any Interested Stockholder or Interested Stockholders, or if in such transaction all holders of Common Stock are not treated alike, any other Person (other
than the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in one (1) or more transactions each of which individually and all of which collectively do not violate Section 13(d) hereof) then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so
that (i) each holder of a Right, subject to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof, shall have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of one one-hundredths of a
Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement 

  
 18 

	 	
and in lieu of Preferred Shares, such number of freely tradeable Common Shares of the Principal Party, free and clear of liens, rights of call or first refusal, encumbrances or other adverse
claims, as shall be equal to the result obtained by (A) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right is then exercisable (without taking into account any adjustment
previously made pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) and dividing that product by (B) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Common Shares of such Principal Party (determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the
date of consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer; (ii) such Principal Party shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by virtue of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, all the obligations and duties of the
Company pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) the term “Company” shall thereafter be deemed to refer to such Principal Party, it being specifically intended that the provisions of Section 11 hereof shall apply to such Principal
Party; and (iv) such Principal Party shall take such steps (including, but not limited to, the reservation of a sufficient number of shares of its Common Shares) in connection with such consummation as may be necessary to assure that the
provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to its Common Shares thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Rights. 

 

	 	(b)	“Principal Party” shall mean: 

  

	 	(i)	in the case of any transaction described in clause (x) or (y) of Section 13(a) hereof, (1) the Person that is the issuer of the securities into
which the Common Shares are converted in such merger or consolidation, or, if there is more than one such issuer, the issuer of Common Shares of which have the greatest aggregate market value of shares outstanding, or (2) if no securities are
so issued, (x) the Person that is the other party to the merger, if such Person survives said merger, or, if there is more than one such Person, the Person the Common Shares of which has the greatest aggregate market value of shares outstanding
or (a) if the Person that is the other party to the merger does not survive the merger, the Person that does survive the merger (including the Company if it survives) or (b) the Person resulting from the consolidation; and

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of any transaction described in clause (z) of Section 13(a) hereof, the Person that is the party receiving the greatest portion of the assets or
earning power transferred pursuant to such transaction or transactions; 

 provided, however, that in any
case, (1) if the Common Shares of such Person are not at such time and have not been continuously over the preceding 12-month period registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and such Person is a direct or indirect Subsidiary or
Affiliate of another Person the Common Shares of which are and have been so registered, “Principal Party” shall refer to such other Person; (2) if such Person is a Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, or Affiliate of more than one
(1) Person, the Common Shares of two (2) or more of which are and have been so registered, “Principal Party” shall refer to whichever of such Persons is the issuer of the Common Shares having the greatest aggregate market value;
and (3) if such Person is owned, directly or indirectly, by a joint venture formed by two (2) or more Persons that are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the same Person, the rules set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above shall
apply to each of the chains of ownership having an interest in such joint venture as if such party were a “Subsidiary” of both or all of such joint venturers and the Principal Parties in each such chain shall bear the obligations set forth
in this Section 13 in the same ratio as their direct or indirect interests in such Person bear to the total of such interests. 
  

	 	(c)	 The Company shall not consummate any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless the Principal Party shall have a sufficient number of
authorized Common Shares that have not been issued or reserved for issuance to permit the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with this Section 13 and unless prior thereto the Company and each Principal Party and each other Person who
may become a Principal Party as a result of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer shall have executed and delivered to the Rights 

  
 19 

	 	
Agent a supplemental agreement providing for the terms set forth in Sections 13(a) and 13(b) hereof and providing that, as soon as practicable after the date of any consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer mentioned in Section 13(a), the Principal Party, at its own expense, will: 

  

	 	(i)	prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the securities issuable upon exercise of the Rights, and will use its best efforts to
cause such registration statement (A) to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and (B) to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of the
Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date; 

  

	 	(ii)	use its best efforts to qualify or register the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights under the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as may
be necessary or appropriate; 

  

	 	(iii)	list the Rights and the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on each national securities exchange on which the Common Shares were listed prior to the
consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer or, if the Common Shares were not listed on a national securities exchange prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, on a national securities exchange; and

  

	 	(iv)	deliver to holders of the Rights historical financial statements for the Principal Party and each of its Affiliates that comply in all material respects with the
requirements for registration on Form 10 under the Exchange Act. 

 The provisions of this Section 13
shall similarly apply to successive mergers or consolidations or sales or other transfers. 
  

	 	(d)	After the Distribution Date and until the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall not
(i) consolidate with, (ii) merge with or into, or (iii) sell or transfer to, in one (1) or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating more than 50% of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole, any other Person (other than a Subsidiary of the Company in a transaction that does not violate Section 11(m) hereof), if (x) at the time of or after such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer there are any charter or
bylaw provisions or any rights, warrants or other instruments or securities outstanding, agreements in effect or any other action taken that would diminish or otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights or (y) prior
to, simultaneously with or immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, the stockholders of the Person who constitutes, or would constitute, the “Principal Party” for purposes of Section 13(a) hereof shall have
received a distribution of Rights previously owned by such Person or any of its Affiliates and Associates. The Company shall not consummate any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless prior thereto the Company and such other Person shall
have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a supplemental agreement evidencing compliance with this Section 13(d). 

 SECTION 14. FRACTIONAL RIGHTS AND FRACTIONAL SHARES. 
  

	 	(a)	 The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Right Certificates that evidence fractional Rights. In lieu of such
fractional Rights, there shall be paid to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable, an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a whole
Right. For the purposes of this Section 14(a), the current market value of a whole Right shall be the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which such fractional Rights would have been otherwise
issuable. The closing price for any day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as

  
 20 

	 	
reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market, if the
Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities
exchange on which the Rights are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices
in the over-the-counter market, as reported in the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets, Inc. or such other system then in use or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked
prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Rights selected by the Board. If on any such date no such market maker is making a market in the Rights, the fair value of the Rights on such date as determined in good faith
by the Board shall be used. 

  

	 	(b)	The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Preferred Shares (other than fractions that are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share)
upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional Preferred Shares (other than fractions that are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share). Fractions of Preferred Shares in integral multiples of
one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts; provided, however, that holders of such depositary receipts shall have all of the designations and the powers, preferences and
rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions to which they are entitled as beneficial owners of the Preferred Shares represented by such depositary receipts. In lieu of fractional Preferred Shares that are not integral multiples of
one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one
(1) Preferred Share. For the purposes of this Section 14(b), the current market value of a Preferred Share shall be the closing price of a Preferred Share (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for
the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise; provided, however, that if the Preferred Shares are not publicly traded at the time of such exercise, the current market value of a Preferred Share shall be determined in
accordance with Section 11(d)(ii) hereof for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise. 

  

	 	(c)	Following the occurrence of one (1) of the transactions or events specified in Section 11 hereof giving rise to the right to receive Common Shares or other
securities (other than Preferred Shares) upon the exercise of a Right, the Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares or other securities upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional
Common Shares or other securities. In lieu of fractional Common Shares or other securities, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash equal to the
same fraction of the current market value of one (1) Common Share or one (1) such other security. For purposes of this Section 14(c), the current market value shall be the closing price for one (1) Common Share or such other
security, as applicable (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise; provided, however, that if such other security is not publicly traded
at the time of such exercise, such security shall have the value of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share as determined pursuant to Section 14(b) hereof. 

 

	 	(d)	The holder of a Right by the acceptance of the Right expressly waives any right such holder may have to receive any fractional Rights or any fractional shares upon
exercise of a Right (except as provided above). 

 SECTION 15. RIGHTS OF ACTION. All rights
of action in respect of this Agreement, excepting the rights of action given to the Rights Agent under Sections 18 and 20 hereof, are vested in the respective registered holders of the Right Certificates (and, prior to the Distribution Date,
the registered holders of the Common Shares) and any registered 

  
 21 

 
holder of any Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares), without the consent of the Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Right Certificate (or, prior to
the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares), may, in such holder’s own behalf and for such holder’s own benefit, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company to enforce, or otherwise act in
respect of, such holder’s right to exercise the Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate in the manner provided in such Right Certificate and in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the holders of
Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement and will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief against actual
or threatened violations of the obligations of any Person subject to, this Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall have any liability to any holder of a Right or other Person as a result of the inability of the Company or the Rights Agent to perform any of its obligations under this
Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, judgment, decree or ruling (whether interlocutory or final) issued by a court or by a governmental, regulatory, self-regulatory or administrative agency or commission, or
any statute, rule, regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority, prohibiting or otherwise restraining performance of such obligation; provided, however, that the Company shall use all reasonable efforts
to have any such injunction, order, judgment, decree or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as possible. 
 SECTION
16. AGREEMENT OF RIGHT HOLDERS. Every holder of a Right, by accepting the same, consents and agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right that: 

 

	 	(a)	prior to the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the Common Shares; 

 

	 	(b)	after the Distribution Date, the Right Certificates are transferable (subject to the provisions of this Agreement) only on the registry books of the Rights Agent if
surrendered at the principal office of the Rights Agent, duly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer; and 

  

	 	(c)	Subject to Section 6, the Company and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name the Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, the
associated Common Shares certificate or uncertificated Common Shares) is registered as the absolute owner thereof and of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Right Certificates or the associated
Common Shares certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

SECTION 17. RIGHT CERTIFICATE HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. No holder, as such, of any Right Certificate shall be
entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Rights represented thereby, nor shall anything
contained herein or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted
to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in Section 25 hereof), or to receive dividends or
subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
 SECTION 18. CONCERNING THE RIGHTS AGENT. The Company agrees to pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on
demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements incurred in the administration and execution of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Company also agrees to
indemnify the Rights Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, or expense, incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful 

  
 22 

 
misconduct on the part of the Rights Agent, for anything done or omitted by the Rights Agent in connection with the acceptance and administration of this Agreement, including the costs and
expenses of defending against any claim of liability in the premises. The indemnity provided herein shall survive the expiration of the Rights and the termination of this Agreement. 

The Rights Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability for, or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in
connection with, its administration of this Agreement in reliance upon any Right Certificate or certificate for the Preferred Shares or Common Shares or for other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of attorney,
endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent, certificate, statement, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper person or persons,
or otherwise upon the advice of counsel as set forth in Section 20 hereof. 
 SECTION 19. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OR
CHANGE OF NAME OF RIGHTS AGENT. Any Person into which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Rights
Agent or any successor Rights Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the shareholder services or corporate trust business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Agreement
without the execution or filing of any paper or document or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that such Person would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 21
hereof. In case at the time such successor Rights Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement any of the Right Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor Rights Agent may adopt the
countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and deliver such Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign such Right
Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Agreement.

 In case at any time the name of the Rights Agent shall be changed and at such time any of the Right Certificates shall have
been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the
Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed name; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Agreement. 

SECTION 20. DUTIES OF RIGHTS AGENT. The Rights Agent undertakes the duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement
upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and the holders of Right Certificates, by their acceptance thereof, shall be bound: 
  

	 	(a)	The Rights Agent may consult with legal counsel of its choice (who may be legal counsel for the Company), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection to the Rights Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with such opinion. 

  

	 	(b)	Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement the Rights Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter (including the identity of
any Acquiring Person and the determination of the current market price of any security) be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in
respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by any one (1) of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial
Officer, any Vice President, the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Rights Agent; and such certificate shall be full authorization to the Rights Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it under the
provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate. 

  
 23 

	 	(c)	The Rights Agent shall be liable hereunder to the Company and any other Person only for its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. 

 

	 	(d)	The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Agreement or in the Right Certificates (except its
countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only. 

 

	 	(e)	The Rights Agent shall not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution
hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement
or in any Right Certificate; nor shall it be responsible for any change in the exercisability of the Rights (including the Rights becoming void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) or any adjustment in the terms of the Rights (including the
manner, method or amount thereof) provided for in Sections 3, 11, 13, 23 or 24 hereof, or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such change or adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced by
Right Certificates after receipt of a certificate pursuant to Section 12 hereof describing such change or adjustment); nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of
any Preferred Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Right Certificate or as to whether any Preferred Shares will, when issued, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 

 

	 	(f)	The Company agrees that it will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other
acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Agreement. 

 

	 	(g)	The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from any one (1) of the Chairman
of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Secretary or the Treasurer of the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it
shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such officer. 

  

	 	(h)	The Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other securities of the Company or
become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall
preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity. 

  

	 	(i)	The Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorneys or
agents, and the Rights Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company resulting from any such act, default, neglect or misconduct, provided
reasonable care was exercised in the selection and continued employment thereof. 

  

	 	(j)	No provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of
its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

  
 24 

	 	(k)	If, with respect to any Right Certificate surrendered to the Rights Agent for exercise or transfer, the certificate attached to the form of assignment or form of
election to purchase, as the case may be, has not been executed, the Rights Agent shall not take any further action with respect to such requested exercise of transfer without first consulting with the Company. 

SECTION 21. CHANGE OF RIGHTS AGENT. The Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties
under this Agreement upon 30 days’ notice in writing mailed to the Company and, in the event the Rights Agent or one (1) of its Affiliates is not also the transfer agent for the Company’s securities, to each transfer agent for
the Common Shares or Preferred Shares by registered or certified mail, and to the holders of the Right Certificates by first-class mail. The Company may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon 30 days’ notice in writing,
mailed to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to each transfer agent for the Common Shares or Preferred Shares by registered or certified mail, and to the holders of the Right Certificates by first-class mail. If the
Rights Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Rights Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after giving notice
of such removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Rights Agent or by the holder of a Right Certificate (which holder shall, with such notice, submit such holder’s Right
Certificate for inspection by the Company), then the registered holder of any Right Certificate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether appointed by the Company
or by such a court, shall be either (a) a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States in good standing that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust or stock
transfer powers and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and that has at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million or (b) a direct or indirect
wholly owned Subsidiary of such Person or its wholly-owning parent. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without
further act or deed; but the predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the
purpose. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment the Company shall file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent for the Common Shares or Preferred Shares, and mail a notice thereof in
writing to the registered holders of the Right Certificates. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 21, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the
Rights Agent or the appointment of the successor Rights Agent, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 22. ISSUANCE OF NEW RIGHT
CERTIFICATES. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the Company may, at its option, issue new Right Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved by the Board to reflect any
adjustment or change in the Purchase Price and the number or kind or class of shares or other securities or property purchasable under the Right Certificates made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, in connection with
the issuance or sale of Common Shares following the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Final Expiration Date, the Company (a) shall with respect to Common Shares so issued or sold pursuant to the exercise
of stock options or under any employee plan or arrangement in existence prior to the Distribution Date, or upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities, notes or debentures issued by the Company and in existence prior to the Distribution
Date, and (b) may, in any other case, if deemed necessary or appropriate by the Board, issue Right Certificates representing the appropriate number of Rights in connection with such issuance or sale; provided, however, that (i) the
Company shall not be obligated to issue any such Right Certificates if, and to the extent that, the Company shall be advised by counsel that such issuance would create a significant risk of material adverse tax consequences to the Company or the
Person to whom such Right Certificate would be issued, and (ii) no Right Certificate shall be issued if, and to the extent that, appropriate adjustment shall otherwise have been made in lieu of the issuance thereof.

 SECTION 23. REDEMPTION. 

 

	 	(a)	The Rights may be redeemed by action of the Board pursuant to Section 23(b) hereof and shall not be redeemed in any other manner. 

 

	 	(b)	(i) The Board may, at its option, at any time prior to the earlier of (A) the Distribution Date, or (B) the Final Expiration Date, redeem all but not less
than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.001 per Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof (such redemption price being hereinafter
referred to as the “Redemption Price”), and the Company may, at its option, pay the Redemption Price in Common Shares (based on the “current per-share market price,” as such term is defined in Section 11(d)
hereof, of the Common Shares at the time of redemption), cash or any other form of consideration deemed appropriate by the Board. The redemption of the Rights by the Board may be made effective at such time, on such basis and subject to such
conditions as the Board in its sole discretion may establish. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof prior to the expiration or termination
of the Company’s right of redemption under this Section 23(b)(i). 

  

	 	(ii)	In addition, the Board may, at its option, at any time after the time a Person becomes an Acquiring Person but prior to any event described in clause (x), (y) or
(z) of the first sentence of Section 13 hereof, redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at the Redemption Price in connection with any merger, consolidation or sale or other transfer (in one (1) transaction or
in a series of related transactions) of assets or earning power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) in which all holders of Common Shares are treated alike and not involving
(other than as a holder of Common Shares being treated like all other such holders) an Interested Stockholder or a Transaction Person. 

  

	 	(c)	Immediately upon the action of the Board ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to Section 23(b) hereof, and without any further action and without any
notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price. The Company shall promptly give public notice of any such redemption; provided, however,
that the failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Within 10 days after such action of the Board ordering the redemption of the Rights pursuant to Section 23(b) hereof, the
Company shall mail a notice of redemption to all the holders of the then outstanding Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the Distribution Date, on the registry books of the transfer
agent for the Common Shares, provided, however, that failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether
or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of redemption will state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or Associates may redeem, acquire or purchase for
value any Rights at any time in any manner (i) other than that specifically set forth in this Section 23 or in Section 24 hereof, or (ii) other than in connection with the purchase of Common Shares prior to the Distribution Date.

  

	 	(d)	Notwithstanding Section 23(c) hereof, the Company may, at its option, discharge all of its obligations with respect to any redemption of the Rights by
(i) issuing a press release announcing the manner of redemption of the Rights and (ii) mailing payment of the Redemption Price to the registered holders of the Rights at their last addresses as they appear on the registry books of the
Rights Agent or, prior to the Distribution Date, on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, and upon such action, all outstanding Right Certificates shall be null and void without any further action by the Company. In the
event the Company elects to discharge all of its obligations with respect to any redemption of Rights by mailing payment of the Redemption Price to the registered holders of the Rights as set forth in the preceding sentence, the dollar amount sent
to each such registered holder representing the full Redemption Price to which such registered holder is entitled shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent. 

  
 26 

 SECTION 24. EXCHANGE. 

 

	 	(a)	The Board may, at its option, at any time after the Distribution Date, exchange all or part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights (which shall not include
Rights that have become void pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one (1) Common Share per Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar
transaction occurring after the date hereof (such exchange ratio being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall not be empowered to effect such exchange at any time
after any Person (other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or any such Subsidiary, or any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, Parent, Merger Sub or any
Affiliates or Associates of Parent or Merger Sub), together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, becomes the Beneficial Owner of 50% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding. 

 

	 	(b)	Immediately upon the action of the Board ordering the exchange of any Rights pursuant to Section 24(a) hereof and without any further action and without any
notice, the right to exercise such Rights shall terminate and the only right thereafter of a holder of such Rights shall be to receive that number of Common Shares equal to the number of such Rights held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange
Ratio. The Company shall promptly give public notice of any such exchange; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the validity of such exchange. The Company promptly shall mail a notice of
any such exchange to all of the holders of such Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the
validity of such exchange. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state the method by which the exchange of the Common Shares
for Rights will be effected and, in the event of any partial exchange, the number of Rights that will be exchanged. Any partial exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of Rights (other than Rights that have become void pursuant to
the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) held by each holder of Rights. 

  

	 	(c)	In lieu of issuing Common Shares in accordance with Section 24(a) hereof, the Company may, if the Board determines that such action is necessary or appropriate and
not contrary to the interests of the holders of Rights, elect to (and, in the event that there are not sufficient treasury shares and authorized but unissued Common Shares to permit any exchange of the Rights in accordance with Section 24(a)
hereof, the Company shall) take all such action as may be necessary to authorize, issue or pay, upon the exchange of the Rights, cash, property, Common Shares, other securities or any combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value
of the Common Shares that otherwise would have been issuable pursuant to Section 24(a) hereof, which aggregate value shall be determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, the value of the Common Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof. Following the Distribution Date, the Board may suspend the exercisability of the Rights for a period of up to 60 days following the Distribution
Date to the extent that the Board has not determined whether to exercise the right of exchange under this Section 24(c). In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall issue a public announcement stating that the exercisability of the
Rights has been temporarily suspended. 

  

	 	(d)	 The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional Common Shares. In lieu of
such fractional Common Shares, the Company shall pay to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Common Shares 

  
 27 

	 	
would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a whole Common Share. For the purposes of this Section 24(d), the current market value
of a whole Common Share shall be the closing price of a Common Share (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day immediately after the date of the first public announcement by the Company that
an exchange is to be effected pursuant to this Section 24. 

  

	 	(e)	Notwithstanding anything in this Section 24 to the contrary, the exchange of the Rights may be effected at such time, on such basis and with such conditions as the
Board in its sole discretion may establish. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board may (i) in lieu of transferring cash, property, Common Shares, other securities or any combination thereof contemplated by this Section 24 to the Persons
entitled thereto (the “Exchange Recipients”) in connection with the exchange issue, transfer or deposit such cash, property, Common Shares, other securities or any combination thereof (the “Exchange
Property”) to or into a trust or other Person that is not controlled by the Company or any of its Affiliates or Associates to hold such Exchange Property for the benefit of the Exchange Recipients, (ii) permit such trust or other
entity to exercise all of the rights that a stockholder of record would possess with respect to any Common Shares deposited in such trust or other Person and (iii) impose such procedures as it determines to be appropriate to verify that the
Exchange Recipients are not Acquiring Persons or Affiliates or Associates of Acquiring Persons as of any time period or periods established by the Board. In such event, the trust or other Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
distribute the Exchange Property to the Exchange Recipients as promptly as practicable after its receipt of such property. If the Board determines, before the Distribution Date, to effect an exchange in accordance with this Section 24, the
Board may delay the occurrence of the Distribution Date to such time no later than 20 calendar days after the Shares Acquisition Date as the Board determines to be advisable. 

SECTION 25. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. In case the Company shall at any time following the Distribution Date propose (i) to
pay any dividend payable in stock of any class to the holders of its Preferred Shares or to make any other distribution to the holders of its Preferred Shares (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend), (ii) to offer to the holders of its
Preferred Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional Preferred Shares or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) to effect any reclassification of its Preferred Shares (other
than a reclassification involving only the subdivision of outstanding Preferred Shares), (iv) to effect any consolidation or merger into or with, or to effect any sale or other transfer (or to permit one (1) or more of its Subsidiaries to
effect any sale or other transfer), in one (1) or more transactions, of 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), to any other Person, (v) to effect the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or to effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of
dividends in Common Shares), then, in each such case, the Company shall give to each holder of a Right Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice of such proposed action, which shall specify the record date for the purpose of
such stock dividend, or distribution of rights or warrants, or the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution, or winding up is to take place and the date of participation therein by the
holders of the Common Shares and/or the Preferred Shares, if any such date is to be fixed, and such notice shall be so given in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above at least 10 days prior to the record date for
determining holders of the Preferred Shares for purposes of such action, and in the case of any such other action, at least 10 days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the date of participation therein by the holders of
the Common Shares and/or the Preferred Shares, whichever shall be the earlier. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
before the Distribution Date, a public filing by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission shall constitute sufficient notice to the holders of securities of the Company, including the Rights, for purposes of this Agreement, and no
other notice need be given to such holders.

Company and the Rights Agent. Upon delivery of a certificate from an appropriate officer of the Company that states that the proposed supplement or amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 27, the Rights Agent shall execute

 29 

 
(including, for purposes of clause (y) below, all omissions with respect to the foregoing) that are done or made by the Board in good faith, shall (x) be final, conclusive and binding
on the Rights Agent and the holders of the Rights, and (y) not subject the Board to any liability to the holders of the Rights.

meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as provided in the Rights Agreement), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by this Right Certificate shall have been exercised as

thereof (as defined in the Rights Agreement) and such Assignment or Election to Purchase will not be honored. 

  
 Exhibit A-5

 EXHIBIT B 
 FORM OF  
 SUMMARY OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE 

PREFERRED SHARES  
 GREAT WOLF RESORTS, INC. 
 On March 12, 2012, the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) of Great Wolf Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) declared a dividend of one (1) preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common
Shares”), of the Company. The dividend is effective as of March 23, 2012 (the “Record Date”) with respect to the stockholders of record on that date. The Rights will also attach to new Common Shares issued after the Record Date. Each
Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), of the Company at a price of $5.00
per one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment. Each Preferred Share is designed to be the economic equivalent of 100 Common Shares. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a
Rights Agreement dated as of March 12, 2012 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and Registrar and Transfer Company (the “Rights Agent”). 
 DETACHMENT AND TRANSFER OF RIGHTS 
 Initially, the Rights will be evidenced
by the stock certificates representing Common Shares then outstanding, and no separate Right Certificates will be distributed. Until the earlier to occur of (i) ten (10) calendar days after a public announcement that a person or group of
affiliated or associated persons, has become an “Acquiring Person” (as such term is defined in the Rights Agreement) or (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Board may determine) following the commencement of, or
announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer which would result in the beneficial ownership by an Acquiring Person of 12.5% or more of the outstanding Common Shares (the earlier of such dates being called the
“Distribution Date”), the Rights will be evidenced, with respect to any of the Common Share certificates outstanding as of the Record Date, by such Common Share certificate. In general and subject to certain exceptions, an “Acquiring
Person” is a person, the affiliates or associates of such person, or a group, which has acquired beneficial ownership of 12.5% or more of the outstanding Common Shares. One such exception is that neither Parent nor Merger Sub (or any of Parent
or Merger Sub’s Affiliates or Associates) shall be or become an “Acquiring Person” by reason of, and the term “Acquiring Person” shall not include Parent or Merger Sub (or any Affiliates or Associates of Parent or Merger
Sub) by reason of the execution, delivery or approval of any of the Merger Agreement or Tender Offer or the consummation of the Merger or Tender Offer or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Transaction Agreements (as defined in the
Rights Agreement). For purposes of the Rights Agreement, beneficial ownership of the Common Shares is generally determined consistent with the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which determines beneficial
ownership of securities under the federal securities laws, except that derivative interests in the Common Shares, such as swap arrangements that do not carry with them the right to control voting or disposition of the underlying securities, are also
considered beneficial ownership of the underlying Common Shares for purposes of the Rights Agreement. The Rights Agreement sets out a carve-out to the definition of “Beneficial Ownership”, namely that no party to any of the Merger
Transaction Agreements shall be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of any Common Shares held by any other party to any such Merger Transaction Agreement solely by virtue of the execution and delivery of any such Merger Transaction Agreement or any
amendment thereof or the performance of such party’s rights and obligations under any such Merger Transaction Agreement or any such amendment. 
 The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), the Rights will be transferable with and only with the Common Shares. Until the
Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), new Common Share certificates issued after the Record Date upon transfer or new issuance of Common Shares will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference.
Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights) the surrender or transfer of any certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date, even without such notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights being

  
 Exhibit B-1

 
attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date,
separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Shares as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the
Rights. 
 EXERCISABILITY OF RIGHTS 
 The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire upon the earlier of (i) the Close of Business on the Business Day which occurs immediately prior to the first
anniversary of the date hereof or (ii) immediately prior to the earlier to occur of the Acceptance Time and the Effective Time (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Final Expiration Date”), unless amended, unless the Final
Expiration Date is extended or unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company, in each case as described below. Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company,
including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. 
 The Purchase Price payable, and the number of
Preferred Shares or other securities or property issuable or payable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to anti-dilution adjustments from time to time. The number of outstanding Rights and the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share
issuable upon exercise of each Right are also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split of the Common Shares or a stock dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or subdivisions, consolidations or combinations of the Common
Shares occurring, in any such case, prior to the Distribution Date. With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least 1% in such Purchase Price. No fractional
Preferred Shares will be issued (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share, which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts) and in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash
will be made based on the market price of the Preferred Shares on the last trading day prior to the date of exercise. 
 TERMS OF PREFERRED
SHARES 
 Preferred Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. Each Preferred Share will be
entitled to a minimum preferential quarterly dividend payment of $0.20 per share but will be entitled to an aggregate dividend of 100 times the dividend declared per Common Share. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Preferred Shares will
be entitled to a minimum preferential liquidation payment of $100.00 per share but will be entitled to an aggregate payment of 100 times the payment made per Common Share. Each Preferred Share will have 100 votes, voting together with the Common
Shares. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which Common Shares are exchanged, each Preferred Share will be entitled to receive 100 times the amount received per Common Share. These rights are protected by customary
anti-dilution provisions. Because of the nature of the Preferred Shares’ dividend, liquidation and voting rights, the value of the one one-hundredth interest in a Preferred Share purchasable upon exercise of each Right should approximate the
value of one (1) Common Share. The Preferred Shares would rank junior to any other series of the Company’s preferred stock. 

TRIGGER OF FLIP-IN AND FLIP-OVER RIGHTS 
 In the event that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right, other than Rights beneficially owned
by the Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate thereof (which will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right that number of Common Shares having a
market value of two times (2x) the exercise price of the Right. This right will commence at the time that a person has become an Acquiring Person (or the effective date of a registration statement relating to distribution of the rights, if
later), but in any event no earlier than the Distribution Date. 

  
 Exhibit B-2

 In the event that the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination
transaction or 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power are sold to an Acquiring Person, its affiliates or associates or certain other persons in which such persons have an interest, proper provision will be made so that each such
holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction will have a
market value of two times (2x) the exercise price of the Right. 
 REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE OF RIGHTS 

At any time prior to the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date, or (ii) the Final Expiration Date, the Board may redeem the
Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). In general, the redemption of the Rights may be made effective at such time on such basis with such conditions as the Board in its sole discretion
may establish. However, the Merger Agreement contains certain limitations on the Company’s ability to redeem the Rights. Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the
holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price. 
 At any time after any person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior
to the acquisition by any person or group of affiliated persons of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Shares, the Board may exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned by an Acquiring Person or its affiliate or associates that will have become
void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one (1) Common Share, or, under circumstances set forth in the Rights Agreement, cash, property or other securities of the Company, including fractions of a Preferred Share (or of a share of
another class or series of the Company’s preferred stock), per Right (with a value equal to such Common Shares). 
 AMENDMENT OF RIGHTS

 The Rights Agreement and the terms of the Rights generally may be amended by the Board without the consent of the holders
of the Rights, except that from and after such time as any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, no such amendment may adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Rights (excluding the interest of
any Acquiring Person or its affiliates or associates). 
 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 

A copy of the Rights Agreement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an Exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K
dated March 13, 2012. A copy of the Rights Agreement is available from the Company by writing to: Great Wolf Resorts, Inc., 525 Junction Road, Ste. 6000 South Tower, Madison, WI 53717. This summary description of the Rights is not intended to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
