Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director designated as an observer may be excluded from any Audit Committee meeting or portion thereof, and the Company may withhold information from such director, if the Audit Committee determines in good faith, after consulting with counsel, that the director’s attendance or access to such information would be reasonably likely to result in the loss of privilege with respect to legal advice or if the matter considered by the Audit Committee involves a Related Party Transaction and the director is not a Disinterested Director with respect thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director designated as an observer may be excluded from any Governance & Nominating Committee meeting or portion thereof, and the Company may withhold information from such director, if the Governance & Nominating Committee Committee determines in good faith, after consulting with counsel, that the director’s attendance or access to such information would be reasonably likely to result in the loss of privilege with respect to legal advice or if the matter considered by the Governance & Nominating Committee involves a Related Party Transaction and the director is not a Disinterested Director with respect thereto.

Section 3.4 Nominating Stockholders Agreement to Vote. From and after the date hereof, each Stockholder shall:

(a) cause their respective shares of Company Common Stock to be present for quorum purposes at any Company stockholder meeting at which directors shall be elected;

(b) cause their respective shares to be voted in favor of the election of each Green Designee designated and nominated for election at such meeting in accordance with this Agreement;

(c) with respect to each nominee for election other than a Green Designee, cause their respective shares to be voted, to the fullest extent practicable, in the respective Stockholder’s sole discretion either (A) in a manner that is proportionate to the manner in which all shares of Company Common Stock owned by Other Stockholders are voted with respect to such nominees, so that, for any such nominee, the shares of Company Common Stock owned by a Stockholder (or its Affiliates) shall reflect voting results with respect to “shares voted for” “shares voted against” “shares abstained” “shares withheld” and “broker non-votes” proportionate to the aggregate voting results for shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by Other Stockholders and that are deemed present in person or by proxy at such stockholder meeting, or (B) in a manner that is consistent with the recommendation of the Governance & Nominating Committee; and

(d) cause their respective shares to be voted against any amendment to the following provisions of the Charter or Bylaws that has not been approved by a majority of the Company Independent Directors: Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7 and 13.1 of the Charter and Sections 3.1(b), 3.2, 4.4, 4.5 and 5.6 of the Bylaws.

Section 3.5 Meeting of Stockholders. Except with respect to the filling of vacancies on the Company Board in accordance with Section 3.2, the Company and each Stockholder shall take all Necessary Action to conduct

the election or removal of Company Independent Directors only at a meeting of stockholders and not by consent in lieu of a stockholder meeting. Except with respect to the filling of vacancies on the Company Board in accordance with Section 3.2, each Stockholder shall refrain from, and shall cause its Affiliates to refrain from, executing a consent in lieu of a stockholder meeting for the purpose of electing or removing Company Independent Directors.

Section 3.6 Related Party Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or effect any Related Party Transaction unless such transaction has been approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or a majority of the Audit Committee. The Stockholders shall not, and shall cause their respective controlled Affiliates not to, take any action to cause the Company to enter into or effect a Related Party Transaction unless such transaction has been approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors or a majority of the Audit Committee.

ARTICLE V

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 5.1 General Provisions.

(a) Each of the Parties (i) irrevocably consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) or, if, but only if, the Chancery Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware with respect to any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the courts of the State of Delaware, as described above, and (iv) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION RELATED TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall prevent any Party from bringing an action or proceeding in any jurisdiction to enforce any judgment of the Chancery Court or any federal court located in the State of Delaware, as applicable. The Parties hereby agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding in the manner provided by Section 6.3 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Each Party accordingly agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any other Party of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it whether in Law or equity, including monetary damages) to (i) a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (ii) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. In circumstances where a Party is obligated to take action under this Agreement and such Party fails to take such action each of the Parties expressly acknowledges and agrees that the other Party shall have suffered irreparable harm, that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate such other Party, and that such other Party shall be entitled to enforce specifically the breaching Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Each Party accordingly agrees not to raise any objection to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.1(b). Each Party further agrees that no other Party and no other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish, or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 5.1(b), and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing, or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.
