(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquiror or Merger Sub, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub shall be converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) The “Merger Consideration” shall consist of $375,000,000 in cash. The Merger Consideration shall be allocated among the Pre-Closing Holders as set forth below in this Section 3.1(c).

(a) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Acquiror shall cause Merger Sub to pay to an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Acquiror, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount (the “Funding Amount”) equal to (i) the Merger Consideration, minus (ii) the product of (x) the number of Dissenting Shares and (y) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share; provided that Acquiror will promptly thereafter cause Merger Sub to pay to the Exchange Agent any amounts by which the Funding Amount increases due to any Dissenting Shares becoming Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to facilitate effecting the applicable withholding of Taxes and the required wage reporting in respect of Vested Options and Restricted Shares, the Company and Acquiror may agree that payment in respect of such Vested Options and Restricted Shares will be processed through the Company’s payroll system, in which case the amount payable to the Exchange Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be further reduced by the aggregate amount of payments to be effected through such payroll system, and the Exchange Agent shall have no responsibility to make payments in respect of Vested Options and Restricted Shares.

(b) After the Effective Time, each Pre-Closing Holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates for Common Shares (collectively, the “Certificates”) and each Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options, upon surrender of such Certificates to the Exchange Agent (or, in the case of a Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options, upon delivery of a Holder Acknowledgment to the Exchange Agent), shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor such portion of the Merger Consideration into which such holder’s Common Shares and/or Vested Options shall have been converted as a result of the Merger; provided, however, that any payment with respect to Restricted Shares held by employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries that vest at the time of, or immediately prior to, the Merger and Vested Options held by employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be reduced by the amount of any Taxes required to be withheld under applicable Law with respect to such payments and amounts so withheld shall be paid by the Exchange Agent to the Company for disbursement to the applicable taxing authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Pre-Closing Holder of Common Shares delivers the Certificate(s) representing such Common Shares, or any Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options delivers a Holder Acknowledgment with respect to such holder’s Options, to Acquiror at the Closing, Acquiror shall pay (or shall cause the Company to pay, following the Closing) the amount which such holder is entitled in consideration therefor directly to such holder promptly following the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds or through the Company’s payroll system and the Funding Amount payable to the Exchange Agent shall be reduced by such amounts (subject, in the case of any Restricted Shares or Vested Options, to withholding for Taxes, which amounts shall be paid to the Company for disbursement to the applicable taxing authority). Pending such surrender and exchange of a Pre-Closing Holder’s Certificate(s) (or, in the case of a Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options, such delivery of a Holder Acknowledgment), such holder’s Certificate(s) and any documents evidencing such holder’s Vested Options shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence such holder’s right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration into which such Common Shares or Vested Options shall have been converted by the Merger.

3.3 Exchange Agent. Promptly following the date which is one year after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to the Surviving Corporation all cash, Certificates and other documents in its possession relating to the

transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Pre-Closing Holder of a Certificate (other than Certificates representing Dissenting Shares) and each Pre-Closing Holder of Vested Options who has not delivered a Holder Acknowledgment may surrender such Certificate or deliver such Holder Acknowledgment to Acquiror and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and Acquiror shall promptly pay or cause to be paid, the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III without any interest thereon.

3.4 Lost Certificate. In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Acquiror, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III.

3.5 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, the Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration and the holders thereof shall be entitled to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that (i) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to establish such holder’s entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL, or (ii) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment for such holder’s shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share shall not constitute a Dissenting Share and shall be treated as if it had been a Common Share (and such holder shall be treated as a Pre-Closing Holder) immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted, as of the Effective Time, into a right to receive from the Surviving Corporation the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III, without any interest thereon. The Company shall serve prompt notice to Acquiror of any demands for appraisal of any Dissenting Shares, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by the Company relating to rights to appraisal, and Acquiror shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Acquiror, make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

3.6 Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the cash otherwise deliverable in respect of any payment made pursuant to this Agreement such amounts that Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company or the Exchange Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of United States federal, state or local Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, and duly deposited with the appropriate Governmental Authority, by Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this

Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the accelerated vesting of any stock options, and the payment of any other amounts (whether or not accelerated) to a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder, will not result in the disallowance of a deduction to the Company under Section 280G of the Code, including using its reasonable best efforts (a) to solicit the requisite approval of the Company’s direct or indirect stockholders, in a manner that meets the shareholder approval requirements of Section 280G(b)(5) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-7, and (b) to obtain a waiver from each such “disqualified individual” entitled to receive a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b) of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder of his or her right to receive such payment. The Company shall provide Acquiror with drafts of all such solicitation materials and consents for review and comment prior to delivery to stockholders or disqualified individuals, as applicable, and shall

consider all such comments in good faith. If, within three weeks of the date hereof, the Company shall have failed to obtain a waiver from each such “disqualified individual” entitled to receive a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b) of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder of his or her right to receive such payment, then the Company shall take such actions in connection with reducing the potential impact, if any, on the Company and its Subsidiaries of the provisions of Section 280G of the Code as may be reasonably requested by Acquiror (provided, that such actions do not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries), including, but not limited to, accelerating the vesting of Restricted Shares in 2010 and/or paying bonuses for 2010 services in 2010.

6.8 Withdrawal of the IPO Registration Statement. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date hereof, but in no event more than two business days following the date hereof, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall (i) file a written withdrawal request with the SEC with respect to the IPO Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act and (ii) provide notice to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. that the Company does not intend to proceed with the offering contemplated by the IPO Registration Statement. Without the consent of Acquiror, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not enter into any Contract with or make any payment to either such investment bank or any other prospective underwriter in the Contemplated IPO with respect to the transactions contemplated by the IPO Registration Statement.

6.9 Real Property Holding Company. On or prior to Closing (but in no event earlier than within thirty (30) days of the Closing), the Company shall have delivered to Acquiror a certificate of the Company certifying that the Company is not, and has not been, a United States real property holding corporation, within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code, during the applicable period specified in Section 897(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the Code, which certificate complies with the requirements of Section 1445 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

6.10 Notice to Stockholders. On or before the tenth (10th) Business Day following the execution and delivery of the written consent of the Company’s stockholders required to approve this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby, the Company shall deliver to holders of Common Stock, in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL, a notice of the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Acquiror shall cooperate in good faith with the Antitrust Authorities and undertake promptly any and all action required to complete lawfully the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the Termination Date) and any and all action necessary or advisable to avoid, prevent, eliminate or remove the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding in any forum by or on behalf of any Antitrust Authority or the issuance of any Governmental Order that would delay, enjoin, prevent, restrain or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Merger, including (i) proffering and consenting and/or agreeing to a Governmental Order or other agreement providing for the sale, licensing or other disposition, or the holding separate, of particular assets, categories of assets or lines of business of the Company or Acquiror and (ii) promptly effecting the disposition, licensing or holding separate of assets or lines of business, in each case, at such time as may be necessary to permit the lawful consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the Termination Date. The entry by any Governmental Authority in any Action of a Governmental Order permitting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby but requiring any of the assets or lines of business of Acquiror to be sold, licensed or otherwise disposed or held separate thereafter (including the business and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not be deemed a failure to satisfy any condition specified in Article IX.

(e) Acquiror shall be solely responsible for and pay all filing fees payable to the Antitrust Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.2 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation to continue to indemnify and hold harmless each present and former

director and officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable Law and its respective certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such person (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law); provided, that any person to whom expenses are advanced shall provide an undertaking to the Surviving Corporation to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification. Without limiting the foregoing, Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Acquiror or its agents or representatives) on terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, that (i) Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.2 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.2 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation. In the event that Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made such that the successors and assigns of Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3 Employment Matters.

(a) For a period of one year following the Closing Date, Acquiror shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain for employees who continue in the employ of Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries following the Closing Date (“Continuing Employees”), (i) a base salary or wages that are no less favorable than, (ii) variable/incentive/bonus pay programs that are substantially similar in value (excluding any value attributable to equity and equity-based compensation) to, and (iii) other benefit plans and arrangements that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to, in each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), those provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing. This Section 7.3 shall not limit the obligation of Acquiror to maintain any compensation arrangement or benefit plan that, pursuant to an existing contract, must be maintained for a period longer than one year. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of continued employment of any Continuing Employee and this Agreement shall not be construed so as to prohibit Acquiror or any of its Subsidiaries from having the right to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee, provided that any such termination is effected in accordance with applicable Law.

(b) From and after the Closing, Acquiror shall give each Continuing Employee full credit for all purposes (including for purposes of eligibility to participate, level of benefits, early retirement eligibility and early retirement subsidies, vesting and benefit accrual) under any employee benefit plans, arrangements, collective agreements and employment-related entitlements (including under any applicable pension, 401(k), savings, medical, dental, life insurance, vacation, long-service leave or other leave entitlements, post-retirement health and life insurance, termination indemnity, severance or separation pay plans) provided, sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Acquiror or any of its Subsidiaries for such Continuing Employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and with any predecessor employer, to the same extent recognized by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, Acquiror shall not be required to provide credit for such service for benefit accrual purposes under any employee benefit plan of Acquiror that is a defined benefit pension plan.

(c) Acquiror shall (i) waive for each Continuing Employee and his or her dependents, any waiting period provision, payment requirement to avoid a waiting period, pre-existing condition limitation, actively-at-work requirement and any other restriction that would prevent immediate or full participation under the welfare plans of Acquiror or any of its Subsidiaries applicable to such Continuing Employee to the extent such waiting period, pre-existing condition limitation, actively-at-work requirement or other restriction would not have been applicable to such Continuing Employee under the terms of the welfare plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and (ii) give full credit under the welfare plans of Acquiror and its Subsidiaries applicable to each Continuing Employee and his or her dependents for all co- payments and deductibles satisfied prior to the Closing in the same plan year as the Closing, and for any lifetime maximums, as if there had been a single continuous employer.

(d) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as limiting the power of Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation to amend or terminate any specific Company Benefit Plan or any other individual employee benefit plan, program, Contract or policy. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as an

amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan or any benefit plan of Acquiror or any other employee benefit plan, program or arrangement or the establishment of any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a guarantee of employment for any Continuing Employee, or to restrict the right of the Surviving Corporation, Acquiror or any of their respective subsidiaries to terminate or cause to be terminated the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time for any or no reason with or without notice. Acquiror and the Company acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 7.3 are included for the sole benefit of Acquiror, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and their respective subsidiaries, and that nothing in this Section 7.3, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (A) in any other Person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) of Acquiror, the Company or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries or (B) to continued employment with Acquiror, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, or any of their respective subsidiaries or continued participation in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement.

7.4 Financing. In the event that Acquiror, Merger Sub and/or an Affiliate obtain one or more debt commitment letters relating to all or any part of the Debt Financing (the “Commitment Letters”), Acquiror shall promptly provide the Company copies of the executed Commitment Letters. Acquiror shall give the Company prompt notice (A) if and when Acquiror or Merger Sub becomes aware that any portion of the Debt Financing contemplated by any Commitment Letter may not be available to consummate the Merger, and (B) of any termination of any Commitment Letter. Acquiror and Merger Sub shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of their efforts to arrange the Debt Financing or Alternative Financing and provide to the Company copies of executed copies of the definitive documents related to the Debt Financing or Alternative Financing (excluding any fee letters, engagement letters or other agreements that, in accordance with customary practice, are confidential by their terms). If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the applicable Commitment Letter and if Acquiror and Merger Sub obtain alternative financing (“Alternative Financing”), the provisions of this Section 7.4 shall be applicable to the Alternative Financing. Acquiror and Merger Sub shall provide notice to the Company promptly upon receiving the Debt Financing or, if applicable, the Alternative Financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by Acquiror with this Section 7.4 shall not relieve Acquiror of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether or not the Debt Financing or the Alternative Financing is available.

7.5 Other Matters. Prior to the close of business on the second Business Day after the date of this Agreement, Acquiror shall (i) incorporate Merger Sub in the State of Delaware and cause Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, (ii) deliver to the Company a copy of the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and a copy of the bylaws of Merger Sub, certified by the Secretary of Merger Sub, (iii) cause Merger Sub and its stockholders to adopt, ratify and approve this Agreement and (iv) cause Merger Sub to execute and deliver a copy of this Agreement to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement shall be binding upon and effective as against Acquiror and the Company as of the date hereof. Acquiror shall not take, or permit any Affiliate to take, any action prohibited by paragraph 4 of that certain letter agreement, dated the date hereof, between TC Group, L.L.C. and Acquiror.

The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its Subsidiaries to, deliver all notices and take all other actions reasonably requested by Acquiror (including cash collateralizing letters of credit issued under the Company Credit Agreement, if any, so long as the amount of cash collateral is included in the Payoff Amount and provided by Acquiror as contemplated below) to facilitate the termination of commitments under the Company Credit Agreement, the repayment in full of all obligations then outstanding thereunder (using funds provided by Acquiror or Merger Sub) and the release of all liens in connection therewith on the Closing Date (such termination, repayment and release, the “Credit Agreement Termination”); provided, that in no event shall this Section 8.2(a) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cause such Credit Agreement Termination unless the Closing shall have occurred and Acquiror or Meger Sub shall have provided to the Company funds to pay in full the Payoff Amount. Concurrently with the Closing, Acquiror shall (or shall cause Merger Sub to) pay to the

administrative agent under the Company Credit Agreement all amounts required pursuant to the terms of the Company Credit Agreement and specified in the Payoff Letter to effect the Credit Agreement Termination.

(b) If requested by Acquiror in writing, the Company shall (or shall cause UCI), not fewer than 15 days prior to the Closing, comply with Section 3.01 of the indenture (the “Indenture”) governing the terms of the Floating Rate Senior PIK Notes of UCI Due 2013 (the “Floating Rate Notes”), or use reasonable best efforts to obtain the agreement of the trustee under the Indenture to waive compliance with Section 3.01 of the Indenture, in connection with the redemption, satisfaction and discharge of the Floating Rate Notes; provided that the Company shall not be required to deliver any document or take any action to the extent the Company in good faith believes that such delivery or action would result in or give rise to the redemption of or an obligation to redeem the Floating Rate Notes if the Closing does not occur, a breach of or default under, or an obligation to satisfy or discharge, the Floating Rate Notes if the Closing does not occur or otherwise result in any material and adverse consequence under the Indenture. If requested by Acquiror in writing, the Company shall (or shall cause UCI to), to the extent permitted by the Floating Rate Notes and the Indenture, substantially simultaneously with the Effective Time (i) issue a notice of optional redemption in respect of the Floating Rate Notes pursuant to the redemption provisions of the applicable Indenture, and (ii) take such other actions reasonably requested by Acquiror in writing to facilitate the satisfaction and discharge of the Floating Rate Notes pursuant to the satisfaction and discharge provisions of the applicable Indenture; provided that prior to or simultaneously with the Company being required to take any of the actions described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, Acquiror shall have, or shall have caused to be, deposited with the trustee under the Indenture sufficient funds to effect such redemption and satisfaction and discharge. The Company shall, and shall cause UCI and its Subsidiaries to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to, provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Acquiror in connection with such redemption, satisfaction and discharge of the Floating Rate Notes.

10.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall, subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.2, forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any party hereto or its respective Affiliates, officers, directors or stockholders, other than (i) liability of the Company for any material breach of a covenant of the Company set forth herein occurring prior to such termination and (ii) as set forth in Section 10.3.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated, the Company’s receipt of the Termination Fee from Acquiror pursuant to this Section 10.3(a) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company against Acquiror and Merger Sub and any of their respective former, current or future stockholders, managers, members, directors, partners, officers, Affiliates or agents for any loss, cost, liability or expense relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement entered into in connection herewith, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any breach or default under this Agreement by Acquiror or Merger Sub or any failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and upon payment of such amount following termination of this Agreement, none of Acquiror, Merger Sub or any of their respective former, current or future stockholders, managers, members, directors, partners, officers, Affiliates or agents shall have any liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement entered into in connection herewith, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Each of Acquiror and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the amount payable by Acquiror pursuant to Section 10.3(a) is not a penalty, but is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company and its Subsidiaries for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance upon this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and for the loss suffered by reason of the failure of such consummation, which amount would otherwise be uncertain and incapable of accurate determination. Each of Acquiror and Merger Sub covenants and agrees that it will not take any position that is in any way inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence.

11.7 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.

11.8 Captions; Counterparts. The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

11.9 Schedules and Annexes. The Schedules and Annexes referenced herein are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All references herein to articles, sections, paragraphs, Schedules and Annexes shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Certain information set forth in the Schedules is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made in this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.

11.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Schedules and Annexes to this Agreement) and that certain Confidentiality Agreement dated as of November 20, 2010 between Acquiror and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, agreements,

oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exist between the parties except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement.

11.11 Amendments This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement. The approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company shall not restrict the ability of the Board of Directors of the Company to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1 or to cause the Company to enter into an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.11 to the extent permitted under Section 251(d) of the DGCL.

11.12 Publicity All press releases or other public communications of any nature whatsoever relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall be subject to the prior mutual approval of Acquiror and the Company which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by any party.

11.13 Severability If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.

11.14 Jurisdiction. Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any other party or its successors or assigns shall be brought and determined in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (unless the Delaware Court of Chancery shall decline to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, in which case, in any Delaware state or federal court within the State of Delaware), and each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in the courts described above in Delaware, other than actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in Delaware as described herein. Each of the parties further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient

forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

11.15 Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law.

11.16 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company or Acquiror under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
