AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of November 8, 2021, by and among Lemonade, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”); Citrus Merger Sub A, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition Sub I”); Citrus Merger Sub B, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition Sub II,” and together with Acquisition Sub I, the “Acquisition Subs”); and Metromile, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.
RECITALS
A.    The parties intend to enter into an integrated transaction pursuant to which, first, Acquisition Sub I will be merged with and into the Company (the “First Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), and second, the Company, as the surviving corporation in the First Merger, will be merged with and into Acquisition Sub II (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”) in accordance with this Agreement, the DGCL and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “DLLCA”), with Acquisition Sub II as the surviving limited liability company. Upon consummation of the First Merger, Acquisition Sub I will cease to exist and the Company will continue as the Initial Surviving Corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. Upon consummation of the Second Merger, the Company will cease to exist and Acquisition Sub II will continue as the Surviving Company and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent.
B.    The Company Board has unanimously (i) determined that the Mergers are fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders; (ii) approved and declared advisable the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by the Company of its covenants and agreements contained herein and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein; (iii) directed that the adoption of this Agreement be submitted to a vote at a meeting of the Company’s stockholders and (iv) recommended that the Company’s stockholders adopt this Agreement.
C.    The Parent Board has unanimously approved the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by Parent of its covenants and agreements contained herein and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, and the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in connection therewith, each on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
D.    The board of directors of Acquisition Sub I has (i) approved the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by Acquisition Sub I of its covenants and agreements contained herein and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein; and (ii) recommended that its sole stockholder adopt this Agreement.



E.    Parent, as the sole member of Acquisition Sub II, has (i) determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of Acquisition Sub II and its sole member to enter into this Agreement and (ii) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Mergers.
F.    Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as an inducement to Parent’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, certain stockholders of shares of Company Common Stock have entered into a voting and support agreement in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (the “Voting and Support Agreement”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and limitations thereof, among other things, the foregoing stockholders agreed to vote the shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by each of them in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Mergers at the Company Stockholder Meeting.
G.    It is intended that, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, (a) the First Merger will be treated as part of a single integrated transaction that includes the Second Merger, (b) the Mergers, taken together, should qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and (c) this Agreement will be a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a).
AGREEMENT
The parties to this Agreement, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
Section 1.THE MERGERS
1.1The Mergers. At the First Effective Time, Acquisition Sub I shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the DGCL and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, whereupon the separate existence of Acquisition Sub I shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Initial Surviving Corporation”) in the First Merger and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. At the Second Effective Time, the Company shall be merged with and into Acquisition Sub II in accordance with the DGCL and the DLLCA, whereupon the separate existence of the Company shall cease, with Acquisition Sub II continuing its existence as the surviving limited liability company (the “Surviving Company”). From and after the Second Effective Time, all the property, rights, powers, privileges and franchises of the Company and the Acquisition Subs shall be vested in the Surviving Company and all of the debts, obligations, liabilities, restrictions and duties of the Company and the Acquisition Subs shall become the debts, obligations, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company, all as provided under the DGCL and DLLCA.
1.2Closing. The consummation of the Mergers (the “Closing”) shall be held (a) at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020, or (b) remotely by exchange of documents and signatures (or their electronic counterparts), in either case unless another place is agreed to in writing by the parties to this Agreement, on a date to be designated jointly by Parent and the Company, which shall be no later than the second (2nd)
2


Business Day after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder and by applicable Legal Requirements, waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of all conditions to the parties’ respective obligations to effect the Mergers set forth in Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions at the Closing, unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by Parent and the Company. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date”. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the parties shall cause a certificate of merger with respect to the First Merger (the “First Certificate of Merger”) and immediately thereafter a certificate of merger with respect to the Second Merger (the “Second Certificate of Merger,” and, together with the First Certificate of Merger, the “Certificates of Merger”) to be duly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary of State”) and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL and DLLCA in connection with effecting the Mergers. The Mergers shall become effective on the date and at such time as the Certificates of Merger are filed with the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later time as may be mutually agreed to in writing by Parent and the Company and specified in the Certificates of Merger (the time at which the First Merger becomes effective being referred to in this Agreement as the “First Effective Time” and the time at which the Second Merger becomes effective being referred to in this Agreement as the “Second Effective Time”).
1.3Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.
(a)Subject to the requirements set forth in Section 4.10(a), at the First Effective Time and by virtue of the First Merger, the certificate of incorporation of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time, shall continue to be the certificate of incorporation of the Initial Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as set forth therein or by applicable Legal Requirements.
(b)Subject to the requirements set forth in Section 4.10(a), at the First Effective Time, the bylaws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time, shall continue to be the bylaws of the Initial Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as set forth therein or by applicable Legal Requirements.
(c)Subject to the requirements set forth in Section 4.10(a), at the Second Effective Time and by virtue of the Second Merger, the certificate of formation of Acquisition Sub II, as in effect immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in the form of certificate of formation of the Surviving Company attached hereto as Exhibit B and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as set forth therein or by applicable Legal Requirements.
(d)Subject to the requirements set forth in Section 4.10(a), at the Second Effective Time, the limited liability company agreement of Acquisition Sub II shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in the form of liability company agreement of the Surviving Company attached hereto as Exhibit C, and, as so amended and restated, shall be the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as set forth therein or by applicable Legal Requirements.

1.4Directors and Officers.
(a)From and after the First Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and the Initial Surviving Corporation’s Organizational Documents (i) the directors of Acquisition Sub I immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be the directors of the Initial Surviving Corporation; and (ii) the officers of Acquisition Sub I immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be the officers of the Initial Surviving Corporation.
(b)From and after the Second Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and the Surviving Company’s Organizational Documents (i) the directors of Acquisition Sub II immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Company; and (ii) the officers of Acquisition Sub II immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Company.
1.5Conversion of Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the First Effective Time, automatically, by virtue of the First Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Sub I, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:
(a)all shares of Company Common Stock that are held in the Company’s treasury or are held directly by Parent or Acquisition Sub I immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be paid or payable in respect thereof;
(b)except as provided in Section 1.5(a), each share of Company Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (for the avoidance of doubt, including for all purposes hereunder, the “Earnout Shares”, as such term is defined in that certain Sponsor Share Cancellation and Vesting Agreement, dated as of November 24, 2020, by and among INSU Acquisition Corp. II, Insurance Acquisition Sponsor II, LLC, and Dioptra Advisors II, LLC (the “Sponsor Share Cancellation and Vesting Agreement”), which Parent acknowledges and agrees shall fully vest upon the First Effective Time pursuant to Section 1.2(c) of the Sponsor Share Cancellation and Vesting Agreement) shall be converted into the right to receive, without interest, a number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (the per share consideration payable in accordance with this Section 1.5(b), the “Merger Consideration”); and
(c)each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Acquisition Sub I that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Initial Surviving Corporation.
(d)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Second Effective Time, automatically, by virtue of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Initial Surviving Corporation or Acquisition Sub II, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Initial Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist. Each limited liability company interest of Acquisition Sub II issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
4


Second Effective Time shall remain outstanding as a limited liability company interest of the Surviving Company.
1.6Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the First Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock are changed or converted into a different number or class or series of shares by reason of any stock split, division, combination, distribution, exchange, exchange or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, or a record date with respect to any such event shall occur during such period, then the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action. Nothing in this Section 1.6 shall be construed to permit the parties to take any action except to the extent consistent with, or not otherwise prohibited by, the terms of this Agreement.
1.7Treatment of Equity Awards; Company Warrants; Additional Shares.
(a)Effective as of the First Effective Time, each Company Option (other than any Cancelled Company Option) that is outstanding and unexercised, whether vested or unvested, immediately prior to the First Effective Time (each, an “Assumed Company Option”) shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically into a Parent Option on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, exercise and expiration provisions) as applied to such Assumed Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time, except that (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Assumed Company Option shall be determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Assumed Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time; by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such product down to the nearest whole share; and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Assumed Company Option shall be determined by dividing (A) the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Assumed Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time; by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such quotient up to the nearest whole cent.
(b)Effective as of the First Effective Time, each Company Option held by any individual who, as of the date hereof, is not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Subsidiaries and that is outstanding and unexercised, whether vested or unvested, immediately prior to the First Effective Time (each, a “Cancelled Company Option”) shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of the Company Common Stock and shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (i) (A) the Per Company Share Price, less (B) the exercise price per share attributable to such Company Option multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise in full of such Cancelled Company Option (the “Option Consideration”). Any Cancelled Company Option with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the Per Company Share Price will be cancelled without any cash payment being made in respect thereof.
5


(c)Effective as of the First Effective Time, each award of Company RSUs (other than any Cancelled Company RSU Award) (each, an “Assumed Company RSU Award”) shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock upon vesting and shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically into a Parent RSU and shall otherwise remain subject to the same vesting and other terms and conditions that applied to the underlying Company RSU immediately prior to the First Effective Time, except that the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Assumed Company RSU Award shall be determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such award of Company RSUs immediately prior to the First Effective Time; by (B) the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number.
(d)Effective as of the First Effective Time, (i) each award of Company RSUs held by any non-employee director of the Company and (ii) each award of Company RSUs that is outstanding and vests based on the achievement of one or more performance criteria (each, a “Cancelled Company RSU Award”) shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock upon vesting and shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, and rounded to the nearest whole cent, equal to (A) the Per Company Share Price, multiplied by (B) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Cancelled Company RSU Award (the “RSU Consideration”). With respect to each Cancelled Company RSU Award that vests based on the achievement of one or more performance criteria, the Company shall determine the number of earned Company RSUs subject to such award in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement prior to the First Effective Time.
(e)Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery with respect to all Assumed Company Options and Assumed Company RSU Awards. Parent shall file and cause to be effective as of no later than the Closing Date, one or more registration statements under the Securities Act on Form S-8, Form S-1 or other appropriate form under the Securities Act, relating to shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to all Assumed Company Options and Assumed Company RSU Awards, and Parent shall use its best reasonable efforts cause such registration statements to remain in effect for so long as such Assumed Company Options and Assumed Company RSU Awards remain outstanding.
(f)At or prior to the Closing, Parent will deposit (or cause to be deposited or maintained) with the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the aggregate (i) Option Consideration owed to all holders of Cancelled Company Options and (ii) RSU Consideration owed to all holders of Cancelled Company RSU Award. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date, the applicable holders of Cancelled Company Options and Cancelled Company RSU Awards will receive a payment from the Company or the Surviving Company, through its payroll system or payroll provider, of all amounts required to be paid to such holders in respect of Cancelled Company Options and Cancelled Company RSU Awards that are cancelled and converted pursuant to Section 1.7(b) and Section 1.7(d), respectively, net of any required withholding of Taxes.
6


(g)At the First Effective Time, each Company Warrant shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent a Company Warrant in respect of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed by Parent and converted into a warrant denominated in shares of Parent Common Stock (a “Parent Warrant”). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Parent Warrant shall be equal to the product (rounded to the nearest whole number) of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Parent Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and the exercise price of such Parent Warrant equal to the quotient of (1) the per share exercise price of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the First Effective Time divided by (2) the Exchange Ratio, which quotient shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent. Except as expressly provided above, following the First Effective Time, each such Parent Warrant shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as were applicable to the applicable Company Warrant immediately prior to the First Effective Time.
(h)Treatment of Additional Shares.
(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the INSU Merger Agreement), (1) Parent agrees that the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.17(g) of the INSU Merger Agreement will apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, (2) the “Additional Shares” (as such term is defined in Section 2.17(a) of the INSU Merger Agreement, the “Additional Shares”) will be issued in accordance with Section 2.17(g) of the INSU Merger Agreement as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time and (3) in accordance with Section 2.17(g) of the INSU Merger Agreement, as of the First Effective Time, each Additional Share will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.5(b) of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Shares, when issued, will be subject to the same exchange procedures as all other shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.10 of this Agreement.
(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, do not constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the INSU Merger Agreement), then, pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, Section 2.17 of the INSU Merger Agreement, if, (1) at any point following the First Effective Time and prior to February 9, 2023, the closing share price of the Parent Common Stock over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period is greater than the quotient of (A) $15.00 divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio, then, (2) as soon as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after such satisfaction, Parent shall issue, on a ratable basis to the Persons eligible to receive such Additional Shares under and pursuant to Section 2.17 of the INSU Merger Agreement (the “Legacy Company Equityholders”), a number of shares of Parent Common Stock in an amount equal to the product of (A) 10,000,000 multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio. If this Section 1.7(h)(ii) applies, then, from and after the First Effective Time, (A) for all purposes under this Agreement, “Additional Shares” will mean the shares of Parent Common Stock that will be subject to
7


issuance pursuant to the prior sentence, (B) all other terms of Section 2.17 of the INSU Merger Agreement (and related definitions) shall apply with respect to Parent as if Parent were “Parent” under the INSU Merger Agreement and (C) if a Change of Control of Parent (as defined in Section 2.17(g) of the INSU Merger Agreement after giving effect to clause (B) above) occurs after the First Effective Time and prior to the Release Date (as defined in Section 2.17(b) of the INSU Merger Agreement), or if any other transaction with respect to Parent or the Parent Common Stock occurs prior to the Release Date that would impact the terms of the arrangement contemplated by Section 2.17 of the INSU Merger Agreement to the Legacy Company Equityholders, then Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that appropriate arrangements will be made to ensure that the Legacy Company Equityholders will retain the benefits of the provisions of Section 2.17 of the INSU Merger Agreement (including by effecting adjustments to the target stock price and number of shares subject to issuance hereunder and thereunder in the manner contemplated by this Section 1.7(h) or in a substantially similar manner).
1.8No Fractional Shares.
(a)No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the First Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued.
(b)Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.5(b) (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.5(b)) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender of such holder’s certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time (“Company Stock Certificates”) or book-entry positions representing non-certificated shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time (“Company Book-Entry Shares”) in accordance with Section 1.10, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest and subject to any required tax withholding, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Parent Stock Price. No such holder shall be entitled to dividends, voting rights or any other rights in respect of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock that would otherwise have been issuable as part of the Merger Consideration. The payment of cash in lieu of fractional share interests pursuant to this Section 1.8(b) is not a separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding-off of the fractions in the exchange.
1.9Closing of Transfer Books.
At the First Effective Time:
(a)all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and all holders of Company Stock Certificates and of Company Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except (unless such holder is subject to Section 1.5(a)) the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.5(b), cash in lieu of any fractional
8


share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.8(b) and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.10(f); and
(b)the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time and no further transfer of any such shares of Company Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the First Effective Time. If, after the First Effective Time, a valid Company Stock Certificate or a Company Book-Entry Share is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Initial Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate or Company Book-Entry Share shall be cancelled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.10.
1.10Exchange of Certificates and Cancellation of Book-Entry Positions.
(a)Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select Parent’s transfer agent or another reputable bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to Parent to act as exchange agent with respect to the Mergers (the “Exchange Agent”). Prior to or substantially concurrent with the First Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent (i) certificates or evidence of book-entry shares representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5; and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.8(b). The shares of Parent Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 1.10(a), together with any dividends or distributions received by the Exchange Agent with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock, and any interest or other income with respect to such cash amount, are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.” The Exchange Agent shall invest the cash available in the Exchange Fund in obligations, funds or accounts typical for (including having liquidity typical for) transactions of this nature as directed by Parent; provided that no losses on such investments shall affect the cash payable to former holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Section 1 (and Parent shall promptly deliver to the Exchange Agent cash in an amount sufficient to replenish any deficiency in the Exchange Fund).
(b)With respect to Company Stock Certificates, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the First Effective Time (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the First Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of each such Company Stock Certificate (i) a notice advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Mergers; (ii) a letter of transmittal in customary form and reasonably acceptable to each of Parent and the Company specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to a Company Stock Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Company Stock Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Company Stock Certificate as provided in Section 1.10(e)) to the Exchange Agent (the “Letter of Transmittal”); and (iii) instructions for surrendering a Company Stock Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Company Stock Certificate as provided in Section 1.10(e)) to the Exchange Agent. Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Company Stock Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of a Company Stock Certificate as provided in Section 1.10(e)) together with a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required pursuant to such instructions, Parent shall instruct, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause, the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of any such Company Stock Certificate in exchange therefor, as promptly as reasonably
9

Since January 1, 2019, there has been no release of any hazardous materials by the Company or any Company Subsidiary at or from any facilities owned or leased by the Company or any Company Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Company, at any other locations where any hazardous materials were generated, manufactured, refined, transferred, stored, produced, imported, used, processed or disposed of by the Company or any Company Subsidiary and, in each case, for which the Company or any Company Subsidiary would reasonably be expected to be subject to any liability, except as, individually or in the aggregate, has not constituted or resulted in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

4.2Company No Solicitation.
(a)The Company will not and the Company will cause each of its Subsidiaries not to and will not authorize or permit and shall not otherwise direct its and their respective Representatives to, except as expressly permitted by this Section 4.2 or Section 4.4, directly or indirectly:
(i)solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, induce, assist or knowingly facilitate any inquiries regarding, or the submission or announcement by any Person (other than Parent or its Subsidiaries) of, any proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Company Acquisition Proposal;

provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Vote, the Company and its Representatives may (I) contact the Person or any of its Representatives who has made such Company Acquisition Proposal solely to clarify the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal so that the Company Board may reasonably inform itself about such Company Acquisition Proposal and (II) engage or otherwise participate in discussions or negotiations with, and provide information to, any Person (or its Representatives) that has made a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal after the date hereof that did not result from any breach of this Section 4.2(a) or Section 4.2(c) by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives if (A) prior to taking any such action, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that such Company Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Company Superior Proposal or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Superior Proposal and that failure to engage in such discussions or negotiations, or provide such information, would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements; and (B) prior to providing any information regarding the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to such third party in response to such Company Acquisition Proposal, the Company receives from such third party (or there is then in effect with such party) an executed confidentiality agreement that contains nondisclosure provisions that are at least as restrictive of such third party as those contained in the Non-Disclosure Agreement are to Parent and that does not prohibit compliance by the Company with this Section 4.2 (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not contain any standstill provisions). Prior to or substantially concurrently with providing any non-public information to such third party, the Company shall make such non-public information available to Parent (to the extent such non-public information has not been previously made available by the Company to Parent). The Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) inform Parent if the Company furnishes non-public information and/or enters into discussions or negotiations as provided for in this Section 4.2(a) and will keep Parent reasonably informed in writing, on a current basis (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours), of the status and all material terms of any Company Acquisition Proposal (including any material changes to the terms thereof) and the status of any discussions and negotiations with respect thereto.
(b)If the Company receives a Company Acquisition Proposal (or notice from any Person that it intends to make a Company Acquisition Proposal) or any inquiry or request for information with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal or that is reasonably likely to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall promptly (and in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours after its receipt of such Company Acquisition Proposal or request) notify
57


Parent in writing of such Company Acquisition Proposal or request (which notification shall include the identity of the Person making or submitting such request or Company Acquisition Proposal and an unredacted copy of any such written request or proposal (or, if not in writing, the material terms and conditions thereof)), together with copies of any proposed transaction agreements, and the Company shall thereafter keep Parent reasonably informed in writing, on a current basis (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours), of the status of such Company Acquisition Proposal or request, including informing Parent of any material change to the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal, and the status of any negotiations, including any change in its intentions as previously notified.
(c)Promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing solicitation of, or discussions or negotiations with, any Person (other than Parent and its Representatives) relating to any Company Acquisition Proposal made prior to the date hereof and any access any such Persons may have to any physical or electronic data room relating to any potential Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, release any third party from, or waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under, or fail to enforce, any standstill provision in any agreement to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party (unless, and only to the extent, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements, in which case it may enable such Persons to submit and pursue a Company Acquisition Proposal).
(d)Any violation of the restrictions contained in this Section 4.2 by any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or the Representatives of the Company at the direction of the Company shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.2 by the Company.
4.3Registration Statement; Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
(a)As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall jointly prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, in preliminary form, and Parent shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Form S-4 Registration Statement, in which the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, in preliminary form, will be included as a prospectus. Each of the parties shall (i) use reasonable best efforts to cause the Form S-4 Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply in all material respects with all applicable rules, regulations and requirements of the Exchange Act or Securities Act; (ii) promptly notify the other upon receipt of, and cooperate with each other and use reasonable best efforts to respond to, any comments or requests of the SEC or its staff, including for any amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus; (iii) promptly provide the other party with copies of all written correspondence and a summary of all oral communications between it or its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, relating to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus; (iv) use reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after it is filed with the SEC; (v) use reasonable best efforts to keep the Form S-4 Registration
58


Statement effective through the Closing in order to permit the consummation of the Mergers; and (vi) cooperate with the other party and provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment in advance on the Form S-4 Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (including any amendments or supplements to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus) and any substantive correspondence (including all responses to SEC comments), prior to filing with the SEC or mailing, and shall provide to the other a copy of all such filings or communications made with the SEC, except to the extent such disclosure or communication relates to a Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company will, prior to filing the preliminary Proxy Statement/Prospectus, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary consents of the Company Financial Advisor to permit the Company to include in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus the opinion of the Company Financial Advisor that, as of the date of such opinion and based on and subject to the matters, assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth in such opinion, the Exchange Ratio provided for in this Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Company Common Stock (other than, as applicable, Parent, the Acquisition Subs and their respective Affiliates).
(b)Parent shall advise the Company, promptly after receipt of notice thereof, of the time when the Form S-4 Registration Statement becomes effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order relating thereto, or the suspension of the shares of Parent Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC or its staff for any amendment of or supplement to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information, and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to as promptly as practicable have any stop order relating to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or any such suspension of the shares of Parent Common Stock lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated. The Company shall cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. Each of the parties shall use reasonable best efforts promptly to furnish the other parties all information concerning such party, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and (to the extent reasonably available to such party) stockholders that may be required by applicable Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the other party or its Representatives in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 4.3. If, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Vote, any party becomes aware of any information that should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in order to make any statement therein, in the light of the circumstances under which it is made, not false or misleading with respect to a material fact, or in order to avoid the omission of a material fact necessary to make the statements in the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus not misleading, then such party (A) shall promptly inform the other party thereof; (B) shall provide the other party (and its counsel) with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus prior to it being filed with the SEC; (C) shall provide the other party with a copy of such amendment or supplement promptly after it is filed with the SEC; and (D) if mailing is required by law or otherwise appropriate, shall cooperate in mailing such amendment or supplement to the stockholders of the Company.

(a)The Company (i) shall take all action necessary under all applicable Legal Requirements and the Company’s Organizational Documents to, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Form S-4 Registration Statement is declared effective (and, subject to the below, in any event within sixty (60) days thereafter), duly call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock to vote on a proposal to adopt this Agreement, as well as a customary proposal regarding adjournment of such meeting (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”); and (ii) shall submit such proposals to, and, except in the case where the Company Board has made a Company Change in Recommendation in compliance with Section 4.4(c), (x) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies in favor of such proposals from, such holders at the Company Stockholder Meeting, and (y) the Company shall not submit any other proposals to its stockholders in connection with the Company Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Company, in consultation with Parent, shall set a record date for determining the Persons entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Company Stockholder Meeting and shall not change such record date without the prior written consent of Parent. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Company Stockholder Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), other than (1) to the extent reasonably necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus that the Company Board has determined in good faith after consultation with Parent and outside counsel is required by applicable Legal Requirements is disclosed to the Company’s stockholders and for such supplement or amendment to be promptly disseminated to the Company’s stockholders within a reasonable amount of time (as determined by the Company Board in good faith after consultation with outside counsel) prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting; (2) if required by applicable Legal Requirement or a request from the SEC or its staff; or (3) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business to be conducted at the Company Stockholder Meeting; and (B) the Company may, and if Parent so requests (which Parent may do up to three (3) times, for up to five (5) Business Days each) shall, postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting in order to solicit additional proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement if, on the date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, there would be insufficient votes to obtain the Required Company Stockholder Vote, whether or not a quorum is present, in which case, except in the case where the Company Board has made a Company Change in Recommendation in compliance with Section 4.4(c), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts during any such postponement or adjournment to solicit and obtain such proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable; provided that without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (x) no single such adjournment or postponement pursuant to clauses (A) or (B) shall be for more than five (5) Business Days, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, (y) all such adjournments and postponements together shall not cause the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting to be more than twenty (20) Business Days after the
60


date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting was originally scheduled or, in the case of the foregoing clauses (A)(3) and (B), less than five (5) Business Days prior to the End Date and (z) in no event shall the Company change the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Company Stockholder Meeting. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts, on a daily basis during the ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting, to keep Parent reasonably informed as to the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock entitled to vote at the Company Stockholder Meeting for which proxies have been received by the Company with respect to the Required Company Stockholder Vote and the number of such proxies authorizing the holder thereof to vote in favor of the Required Company Stockholder Vote.
(b)Subject to Section 4.4(c) and Section 4.4(d), the Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include the Company Board Recommendation and neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall, except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, including by Section 4.4(c) and Section 4.4(d) (i) withhold, withdraw, modify, amend or qualify (or publicly propose to withdraw, modify, amend or qualify), in a manner adverse to Parent or the Acquisition Subs, the Company Board Recommendation, or fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus; (ii) approve, recommend or declare advisable (or publicly propose to do so) any Company Acquisition Proposal; (iii) fail to publicly announce, within ten (10) Business Days after a tender offer or exchange offer relating to the equity securities of the Company shall have been commenced by any third party other than Parent and its Affiliates (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting, as it may be postponed or adjourned pursuant to Section 4.4(a)), a statement disclosing that the Company Board recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer (for the avoidance of doubt, the taking of no position or a neutral position by the Company Board in respect of the acceptance of any such tender offer or exchange offer as of the end of such period shall constitute a failure to publicly announce that the Company Board recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer); or (iv) if requested in writing by Parent, fail to issue, within five (5) Business Days after a Company Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting, as it may be postponed or adjourned pursuant to Section 4.4(a)), a press release reaffirming the Company Board Recommendation; provided that Parent may make any such request once with respect to each particular Company Acquisition Proposal or once with respect to each amendment (to the financial or any other material terms) made thereto (any action described in clauses (i) through (iv) being referred to as a “Company Change in Recommendation”); (v) cause or permit the Company to enter into any Contract, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle or other arrangement or understanding (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in compliance with Section 4.2(a)) contemplating or relating to a Company Acquisition Transaction; (vi) take any action to make the provisions of any anti-takeover or similar statute or regulation inapplicable to any Company Acquisition Proposal or counterparty thereto; or (vii) publicly propose to do any of the foregoing.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Vote, the Company Board may make a Company Change in Recommendation related to a Company Acquisition Proposal if (x) the Company receives from a third party a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal after the
61


date of this Agreement that has not been withdrawn and did not result from a breach of Section 4.2 and (y) prior to making such Company Change in Recommendation:
(i)the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal and that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements;
(ii)the Company delivers to Parent a written notice (the “Company Superior Proposal Notice”) no less than four (4) Business Days in advance stating that the Company Board intends to make a Company Change in Recommendation, which notice shall include the identity of the Person making such Company Acquisition Proposal and a copy of such proposal and a draft of the definitive agreement to be entered into in connection therewith (or, if not in writing, the material terms and conditions thereof); and
(iii)(A) during the four (4) Business Day period commencing on the date of Parent’s receipt of such Company Superior Proposal Notice, if requested by Parent, the Company engages in good faith negotiations with Parent regarding a possible amendment of this Agreement so that the Company Acquisition Proposal that is the subject of the Company Superior Proposal Notice ceases to be a Company Superior Proposal; and (B) after the expiration of the negotiation period described in clause “(A)” above, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, and after taking into account any amendments to this Agreement that Parent and the Acquisition Subs have committed in writing to make as a result of the negotiations contemplated by clause “(A)” above, that such Company Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Company Superior Proposal; provided that if there is any change and/or amendment, whether communicated orally or in writing, to the financial or other material terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall, in each case, be required to deliver to Parent an additional notice consistent with that described in clause “(ii)” above and a new negotiation period under clause “(A)” above shall commence, during which time the Company shall be required to comply with the requirements of Section 4.4(c)(iii) anew with respect to such additional notice.
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Vote, the Company Board may make a Company Change in Recommendation that is not related to a Company Acquisition Proposal if and only in response to any state of fact, event, change, effect, circumstance, occurrence or development, or combination thereof, arising following the date of this Agreement and that was neither known to nor or reasonably foreseeable to the Company Board prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and such fact, event, change, effect, circumstance, occurrence or development, or combination thereof, is not specifically related to (a) the receipt, existence of or terms of a Company Acquisition Proposal or a Company Superior Proposal or any inquiry or communications relating thereto, any matter relating thereto or consequences thereof or (b) in each case in and of itself, any changes in the market price or trading volume of Company Common Stock or the fact that the Company meets, fails to meet or exceeds any internal or published projections, forecasts or estimates of its revenue, earnings or other financial
62


performance or results of operations for any period (it being understood, however, that any underlying cause of any of the foregoing may be taken into account unless excluded pursuant to clauses (a) or (b)) (any such state of fact, event, change, effect, circumstance, occurrence, development, condition, circumstance, or combination thereof, being referred to as a “Company Intervening Event”); and, prior to making such Company Change in Recommendation, (1) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that, in light of such Company Intervening Event, a failure to effect a Company Change in Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements; (2) no less than four (4) Business Days prior to the making of such Company Change in Recommendation, Parent receives a written notice from the Company confirming that the Company Board intends to effect such Company Change in Recommendation, specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail; (3) during such four (4) Business Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company engages in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend this Agreement in such a manner that obviates the need for the Company Board to effect a Company Change in Recommendation; and (4) following the end of such four (4) Business Day period, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor and after taking into account any amendments to this Agreement that Parent and the Acquisition Subs have committed in writing to make as a result of the negotiations contemplated by clause (3) above, that, in light of such Company Intervening Event, a failure to effect a Company Change in Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements, even if such changes committed to in writing were to be given effect.
(e)Notwithstanding any Company Change in Recommendation, unless this Agreement has been earlier terminated in accordance with Section 6.1, this Agreement shall be submitted to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock at the Company Stockholder Meeting for the purpose of voting on the adoption of this Agreement and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to relieve the Company of such obligation.
(f)Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company, the Company Board or their Representatives from (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act pending disclosure of its position thereunder or making any disclosure to its stockholders if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) directing any Person (or the Representative of that Person) who makes a Company Acquisition Proposal to the provisions of this Section 4.4; provided, however, that in the case of either clause (i) or clause (ii), no such communication, statement or disclosure that would constitute a Company Change in Recommendation shall be permitted, made or taken except in accordance with Section 4.4(c).
(g)Any violation of the restrictions contained in this Section 4.4 by any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or the Representatives of the Company at the direction of the Company shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.4 by the Company.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall cooperate with the other and use (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to use), and Parent shall cause each Person who is deemed by a Governmental Entity to “control” Parent or will be deemed by a Governmental Entity to “control” any of the Company Insurance Subsidiaries following the Closing (each such Person, a “Control Person”) to cooperate with the parties hereto and to use and cause their respective Affiliates to use, their respective reasonable best efforts to fulfill all conditions applicable to such party pursuant to this Agreement and to consummate and make effective, as promptly as practicable, the transactions contemplated hereby, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) prepare and file promptly and fully all documentation to effect all necessary and advisable filings, notifications, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents (including any required filings under applicable Antitrust Laws and Legal Requirements relating to the acquisition of control of insurance companies) that are or may become necessary, proper or advisable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) obtain as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the End Date) all approvals, consents, clearances, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, registrations, permits, authorizations and other confirmations from any Governmental Entity that are or may become necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iii) obtain all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties. Except as set forth in Part 4.5(a) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, neither Parent nor any of its applicable Affiliates shall, and Parent shall cause each of the Control Persons not to, at any time prior to the Closing, file any application with or request for approval or non-disapproval by any Governmental Entity with respect to any inter-Affiliate transaction between the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the post-Closing Affiliates of any of them (including Parent and any of its Affiliates or Control Persons), on the other hand, in each case that would require approval or non-disapproval under applicable Legal Requirements. Parent acknowledges and agrees that any breach by any Affiliate of Parent or any Control Person, of the provisions of this Section 4.5(a) (assuming, solely for this purpose, that such Affiliate or Control Person was bound to the same covenants in this Section 4.5(a) as Parent) shall constitute a breach of this Section 4.5(a) by Parent.
(b)Each party shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, and Parent shall cause the Control Persons to file, all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such Person with any Governmental Entity with respect to the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to submit as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information requested by any such Governmental Entity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each of Parent and the Company shall, in consultation and cooperation with the other within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company), prepare and file the notifications required under the HSR Act; and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than as required by applicable Legal Requirements, prepare and file, or pre-file with regard to any Governmental Entity that requires such pre-filing prior to any formal filing of, all other notifications required under any other Antitrust Laws or other Legal Requirements. In addition and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall file, and shall cause
64


each Control Person to file, within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, a “Form A” Approval of Acquisition of Control with the Delaware Department of Insurance with respect to the acquisition of control of the Company Insurance Subsidiaries. Each party shall promptly notify the other party and provide copies to the other party of any substantive written notice or other written communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with any current or pending Governmental Authorizations (other than those that are administrative or ministerial in nature). Parent and the Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Control Persons to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any inquiries or requests for additional information or documentary material received from any state attorney general, antitrust authority or other Governmental Entity pursuant or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(c)Subject to the provisions of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, Parent and the Company each shall, and Parent shall cause the Control Persons to, promptly supply the other with any information that may be required in order to effectuate any filings (including applications) pursuant to (and to otherwise comply with its obligations set forth in) Section 4.5(a) and Section 4.5(b). Each of Parent and the Company, as it deems advisable and necessary, may reasonably designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other as “outside counsel only” or with similar restrictions. Each of Parent and the Company may also reasonably redact the material as necessary to (i) comply with other contractual arrangements or applicable Legal Requirements or (ii) prevent the loss of protection under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine. Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and, with the prior written consent of the disclosing party, to economic or other experts retained by the outside counsel of the recipient, or otherwise as the restriction indicates, and be subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement between the parties. Except where prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements or any Governmental Entity, and subject to the provisions of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, each of Parent and the Company shall (i) consult with the other in good faith prior to taking a position with respect to any filing required or advisable pursuant to Section 4.5(a) and Section 4.5(b); (ii) permit the other to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, letters, responses to requests, briefs, white papers, arguments, opinions and proposals before making or submitting any of the foregoing to any Governmental Entity by or on behalf of any party in connection with any such filing or any Legal Proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) coordinate with the other in preparing and exchanging such information; (iv) promptly provide the other party’s counsel with copies of all filings, notices, analyses, presentations, memoranda, letters, responses to requests, briefs, white papers, opinions, proposals and other submissions (and a summary of any oral presentations) made or submitted by such party with or to any Governmental Entity in connection with any filing required by Section 4.5(a) and Section 4.5(b) in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; and (v) consult with the other party in advance of any meeting, video conference or teleconference with any Governmental Entity or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other Person, and, to the extent not prohibited by the Governmental Entity or other Person, give the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings, video conferences and teleconferences. Parent shall be responsible for the payment of all filing fees pursuant to Antitrust Laws or insurance regulatory Legal Requirements and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates will offer, propose, negotiate, agree or consent to any accommodation, concession, commitment, condition or remedy (financial or otherwise) to or with any Governmental Entity or any third party in connection with seeking or obtaining approvals or consents for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the other party, neither Parent or any of its Affiliates or Control Person, on the one hand, nor the Company, on the other hand, shall enter into any agreement relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with any Governmental Entity or take any other action that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the Closing or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Legal Requirement.
(e)If any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Antitrust Law or other Legal Requirement, each of Parent and the Company shall, and Parent shall cause each Control Person to, use reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the proviso below, Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the Control Persons to, take or refrain from taking, and agree or commit to take or refrain from taking, any and all actions, or suffer to exist any limitation, action, restriction, condition or requirement, as applicable, in each case that are necessary to avoid each and every impediment under any applicable Legal Requirements that may be asserted by, or judgment, decree and Order that may be entered by or with, any Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement or other transactions contemplated hereby this Agreement so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable, including any of the foregoing as is necessary, proper or advisable to (i) obtain all approvals, consents, clearances, expirations from any Governmental Entities necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) resolve any objections that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) prevent the entry of, and have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any judgment, decree or Order of any Governmental Entity that would prevent, prohibit, restrict or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall Parent or any of its Affiliates or the Control Persons be required to take any action, including entering into any consent decree, hold separate order or other arrangement, that (when taken together with all other such actions) would have, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on (A) the business, financial condition or results of operations of (x) the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (y) Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (B) the aggregate economic benefits that Parent reasonably expects to receive from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each of (A) and (B), a “Burdensome Condition”).
(f)Each of Parent and the Company agrees that, prior to the earlier of the First Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1, it shall not, and shall ensure that none of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall, consummate, enter into any
66

All information obtained by or provided to Parent and its Representatives pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as “Confidential Information” of the Company for purposes of the Non-Disclosure Agreement.
(b)To the extent that any of the information or material furnished pursuant to this Agreement may include material subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege, the parties understand and agree that they have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is their desire, intention and mutual understanding that the sharing of such material is not intended to, and shall not, waive or diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege.

(d)In the event that Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries (or any of their respective successors or assigns) shall consolidate or merge with any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, then in each case, to the extent necessary to protect the rights of the Indemnified Parties and other Persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Policy or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 4.10(b) (and their respective heirs and representatives), proper provision shall be made so that the continuing or surviving corporation or entity (or its successors or assigns, if applicable) shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 4.10.

(g)by the Company if (i) any of Parent’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall be inaccurate such that the condition set forth in Section 5.3(a) would not be satisfied; or (ii) any of Parent’s covenants contained in this Agreement shall have been breached such that the condition set forth in Section 5.3(b) would not be satisfied; provided, however, that for purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) above, if an inaccuracy in any of Parent’s representations and warranties or a breach of a covenant of Parent is curable by Parent by the End Date and Parent is continuing to exercise its reasonable best efforts to cure such inaccuracy or breach, then the Company may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.1(g) on account of such inaccuracy or breach unless such inaccuracy or breach shall remain uncured for a period of thirty (30) days commencing on the date that Parent receives written notice of such inaccuracy or breach from the Company; provided, further, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.1(g) if the Company is then in breach of any of its representations, warranties or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.2(b).

6.3Termination Fees.
77


(a)If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 6.1(d), or by either Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(e) at a time when Parent would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(d), then, within two (2) Business Days after the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall cause to be paid to Parent the Termination Fee.
(b)If this Agreement is terminated (i)(A) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(e) or (B) by Parent pursuant to Section 6.1(f) as a result of a breach of the Company’s covenants set forth in Section 4.2 or Section 4.4 and (ii)(A) at or prior to the date of such termination, any Person shall have publicly announced an intention to make a Company Acquisition Proposal, or a Company Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed, publicly announced, or otherwise publicly commenced, submitted or made at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting (or at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of termination, in the case of an applicable termination other than pursuant to Section 6.1(e)); and (B) on or prior to the date that is twelve (12) months following the termination of this Agreement, either (1) a Company Acquisition Transaction is consummated or (2) a definitive agreement relating to a Company Acquisition Transaction is entered into by the Company (it being understood that, for purposes of this clause “(B),” each reference to “twenty percent (20%)” in the definition of “Company Acquisition Transaction” in Exhibit A shall be deemed to be a reference to “fifty percent (50%)”), then, within two (2) Business Days after the earlier of the consummation of such Company Acquisition Transaction or entering into a definitive agreement relating to a Company Acquisition Transaction, the Company shall cause to be paid to Parent the Termination Fee.
(c)Any Termination Fee due and payable by the Company under this Section 6.3 shall be paid by wire transfer of cash in same-day funds to an account designated in writing by Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Termination Fee shall be payable by the Company only once and not in duplication even though the Termination Fee may be payable by the Company under one or more provisions hereof. If the Company fails to pay the Termination Fee when due and payable by the Company, then the Company shall pay to Parent interest on such overdue amount (for the period commencing as of the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date such overdue amount is actually paid to Parent) at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” (as published in The Wall Street Journal) in effect on the date such amount was originally required to be paid, and the Company shall pay the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses) in connection with any action, including the filing of any lawsuit or other legal action, taken by Parent to collect payment. The parties agree that if the Termination Fee becomes payable by, and is paid by, the Company, then such Termination Fee shall be Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy for damages against the Company and its Affiliates and its and their Representatives in connection with this Agreement, and in no event in which the Termination Fee becomes payable by, and is paid by, the Company, will Parent or any other Person seek to recover any other money damages or seek any other remedy from the Company or any other Person based on a claim in law or equity or otherwise in connection with this Agreement; provided, that nothing contained herein shall relieve any party from liability for any actual, common law fraud or Willful Breach.

Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.

It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that a party hereto may have under law or in equity, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Parent, the Acquisition Subs or the Company of any covenant or obligation of such party contained in this Agreement, the other parties shall be entitled to obtain (i) an Order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant; and (ii) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. In the event that any action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party hereto shall allege, and each party hereto hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law. Each party hereto further agrees that no other party hereto or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 7.11, and each party hereto
