Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 27, 2017, Exa Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp., a Rhode Island corporation (“Dassault Systemes”), and 3DS Acquisition 3 Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Systemes (“Purchaser”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will commence a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), at a price per share of $24.25, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the “Offer Price”), and subject to deduction for any required withholding of taxes. Purchaser is obligated to commence the Offer as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 business days following the date of the Merger Agreement, and the Offer will remain open for 21 business days from the date of commencement of the Offer, subject to extension in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The consummation of the Offer is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, (i) the valid tender of shares of Company Common Stock representing a majority of the total outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, calculated on a fully diluted basis, (ii) the expiration or termination of all applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), and (iii) other conditions to the Offer set forth in Annex I to the Merger Agreement. The consummation of the Offer is not subject to any financing condition.

Upon the completion of the Offer, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Systemes (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and shall be effected by Purchaser and the Company as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Offer without a stockholder meeting.

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding share of Company Common Stock, other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Company, Dassault Systemes or Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time, or by stockholders who have validly exercised their appraisal rights under Delaware law, as more fully described below, will be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, payable to the holder thereof on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The Company, Dassault Systemes and Purchaser have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement. The Company’s covenants include, among other things, covenants regarding the operation of the Company’s business prior to the Effective Time and covenants restricting the ability of the Company to solicit third-party proposals relating to alternative transactions or provide information or enter into discussions in connection with alternative transactions, subject to certain exceptions to permit the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) to comply with its fiduciary duties. Notwithstanding the limitations applicable pursuant to the “no-shop” restrictions set forth in the Merger Agreement, prior to the consummation of the Offer, under specified circumstances the Company Board may change its recommendation in connection with an intervening event that was not known or reasonably foreseeable as of the date of the Merger Agreement, or in connection with an alternative proposal that does not result from breach of the “no-shop” restrictions and that the Company Board determines in good faith constitutes a superior proposal (in which latter case the Company may also terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into such superior proposal upon payment of the termination fee, as discussed below). Before the Company Board may change its recommendation in connection with a superior proposal, or terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a superior proposal, the Company must provide Dassault Systemes with a five-calendar-day match right, subject to an additional three-calendar-day match right in the event of a material change to such superior proposal.

The Merger Agreement also includes customary termination provisions for both the Company and Dassault Systemes and provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, under certain circumstances, the Company may be obligated to pay Dassault Systemes a termination fee of $12 million, including due to termination of the Merger Agreement by the Company to accept a superior proposal, and Dassault Systemes may be obligated to pay the Company a termination fee of $24 million.

Each party is required to use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy the closing conditions relating to required governmental or third-party consents, including by making required filings under the HSR Act.

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement, the Offer and the Merger does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement has been attached hereto pursuant to applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in order to provide investors and stockholders with information regarding its terms. However, it is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Dassault Systemes, their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, or any other party. In particular, the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement have been made only for the purpose of the Merger Agreement and, as such, are intended solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement. In many cases, these representations, warranties and covenants are made as of specific dates, subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties and qualified by certain disclosures exchanged by the parties in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. Furthermore, many of the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement are the result of a negotiated allocation of contractual risk among the parties and, taken in isolation, do not necessarily reflect facts about the Company, Dassault Systemes, their respective subsidiaries and affiliates or any other party. Likewise, any references to materiality contained in the representations and warranties may not correspond to concepts of materiality applicable to investors or stockholders. Information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement and these changes may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

AS A RESULT OF THE FOREGOING, INVESTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED NOT TO RELY ON THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS CONTAINED IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT, OR ON ANY DESCRIPTIONS THEREOF, AS ACCURATE CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THE STATE OF FACTS OR CONDITION OF THE COMPANY OR ANY OTHER PARTY.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K and in the press release attached hereto may constitute “forward-looking statements.” Such statements relate to a variety of matters, including but not limited to: the timing and anticipated completion of the Offer and the proposed Merger; and other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are made on the basis of the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the management of the Company and Dassault Systemes and are subject to significant risks and uncertainty. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and neither the Company nor Dassault Systemes undertakes any obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein include, but are not limited to: potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement of the proposed acquisition of the Company; unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed acquisition of the Company; litigation or adverse judgments relating to the proposed acquisition of the Company; risks relating to the consummation of the proposed acquisition of the Company, including the risk that the closing conditions to the Offer or the proposed Merger will not be satisfied; any difficulties associated with requests or directions from governmental authorities resulting from their reviews of the transaction; and any changes in general economic and/or industry-specific conditions. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are set forth under the heading “Item 1A—Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2017, which was filed with the SEC on March 22, 2017, as well as in subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K, and other filings made with the SEC by the Company and Dassault Systemes.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

No statement in this document or the attached exhibits is an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell securities. The Offer for the shares of Company Common Stock has not commenced. Dassault Systemes intends to file a tender offer statement on Schedule TO with the SEC, and the Company intends to file a solicitation/recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9, each with respect to the Offer described in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits attached hereto. Any offers to purchase or solicitations of offers to sell will be made only pursuant to such tender offer statements. The tender offer statement on Schedule TO (including an offer to purchase, a related letter of transmittal and other offer documents) and the related solicitation/recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9 will contain important information, including the various terms of, and conditions to, the Offer, which should be read carefully by the Company’s stockholders before they make any decision with respect to the Offer. Such materials, when prepared and ready for release, will be made available to the Company’s stockholders at no expense to them. In addition, at such time, such materials (and all other offer documents filed with the SEC) will be available at no charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and may also be obtained by directing a request to the Company, at Exa Corporation, attention: Richard F. Gilbody, Chief Financial Officer, 55 Network Drive, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803, telephone: (781) 564-0200, or to Dassault Systemes, attention: Investor Relations, telephone: +33 1 61 62 69 24.

ARTICLE I

THE OFFER AND THE MERGER

SECTION 1.01 The Offer.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provided that (i) this Agreement has not been terminated in accordance with Article VIII, (ii) the Company is prepared (in accordance with Section 1.02(b)) to file the Schedule 14D-9 on the same date as Purchaser commences the Offer and (iii) none of the events set forth in clauses (c)(i) through (vi) of Annex I shall have occurred and be continuing, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the Agreement Date, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, commence the Offer within the meaning of the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The obligations of Purchaser to, and of Parent to cause Purchaser to, accept for payment any Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer are subject to the conditions set forth in Annex I (the “Offer Conditions”). The Offer shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is twenty-one (21) Business Days (determined using Rule 14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) following the commencement (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of the Offer (the “Initial Expiration Date”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Expiration Date” means the Initial Expiration Date or, if the Initial Expiration Date has been extended pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, the date and time to which the Offer has been so extended.

(b) Parent and Purchaser expressly reserve the right to waive (where permitted by applicable Law), in their sole discretion, in whole or in part, any of the Offer Conditions, to increase the Offer Price or to make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion, or except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, neither Parent nor Purchaser shall (i) decrease the Offer Price, (ii) change the form of consideration

2

payable in the Offer, (iii) reduce the maximum number of Shares to be purchased in the Offer, (iv) amend or waive the Minimum Condition, (v) add any condition to the Offer not set forth in Annex I, (vi) amend or modify any of the Offer Conditions in a manner adverse to the holders of Shares, (vii) waive the Offer Condition set forth in clause (b) of Annex I or the Offer Condition set forth in clause (c)(i) of Annex I, (viii) extend the Offer in a manner other than pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, (ix) otherwise amend the Offer in any manner materially adverse to the holders of Shares or (x) provide for a “subsequent offering period” (or any extension thereof) in accordance with Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (i) Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer for any period or periods required by (A) applicable Law, (B) applicable rules, regulations, interpretations or positions of the SEC or its staff or (C) any of the rules and regulations, including listing standards, of NASDAQ or any other United States national securities exchange registered under the Exchange Act on which the Company Common Stock is then traded, (ii) if at the otherwise-scheduled Expiration Date any Offer Condition other than the Minimum Condition is not satisfied or waived (if permitted hereunder), Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer for one or more successive periods of ten Business Days each, in order to permit the satisfaction of all of the Offer Conditions; and (iii) if at the otherwise-scheduled Expiration Date the Minimum Condition is not satisfied or waived and Purchaser is not otherwise obligated to extend the Offer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii), Purchaser may, and, if requested by the Company in its sole discretion, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer for one or more periods of ten (10) Business Days each, it being agreed that Parent shall not, and shall not be required to cause Purchaser to, extend the Offer pursuant to this clause (iii) on more than two (2) occasions; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Purchaser be required to extend the Offer beyond the earlier to occur of (1) the date this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VIII or (2) the Outside Date; provided, further, that the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 1.01(c) shall not be deemed to impair, limit or otherwise restrict in any manner the right of Parent to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII.

(d) On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, accept for payment all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer that Purchaser becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer and pay for all such shares as soon as practicable (in compliance with Rule 14e-1(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act) following the expiration of the Offer (the time of such acceptance for payment, and payment for, Shares, the “Acceptance Time”). The Offer Price payable in respect of each Share validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer shall be paid net to the seller in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.02(e).

(e) Neither Parent nor Purchaser shall terminate or withdraw the Offer prior to any scheduled Expiration Date unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VIII. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VIII, Purchaser shall, and Parent shall cause Purchaser to, promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day), irrevocably and unconditionally terminate the Offer. If the Offer is terminated or withdrawn by Purchaser, or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VIII prior to the purchase of Shares in the Offer, Purchaser shall promptly return and shall cause any depositary acting on behalf of Purchaser to return, in accordance with applicable Law, all tendered Shares to the registered holders thereof.

3

(f) As promptly as practicable on the date of the commencement of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser shall file with the SEC, in accordance with Rule 14d-3 under the Exchange Act, a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO shall contain an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”), a form of letter of transmittal, a form of summary advertisement and other ancillary Offer documents and instruments, if any, in respect of the Offer (collectively, together with any amendments and supplements thereto and the Schedule TO, the “Offer Documents”). Parent and Purchaser shall take all steps necessary to cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares, as and to the extent required by applicable Law. Parent and Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall promptly correct any information provided by such Party for use in the Offer Documents, if and to the extent that it shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or the Schedule TO or the other Offer Documents contain any material omission therein, and Parent and Purchaser shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Schedule TO and, as applicable, the other Offer Documents and to cause the Schedule TO and the other Offer Documents as so amended and supplemented to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable Law. The Company and its legal counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents before they are filed with the SEC, and Parent and Purchaser shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments provided by the Company and its counsel hereunder, in each case, so long as the Company Board has not effected an Adverse Recommendation Change. Parent and Purchaser, so long as the Company Board has not effected an Adverse Recommendation Change, shall as promptly as practicable provide the Company and its counsel with a copy of any written comments or telephonic notice of any oral comments that may be received from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents or any amendment or supplement thereto promptly after receipt thereof.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Shares. Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.01(b) or Dissenting Shares (collectively, the “Excluded Shares”), shall be canceled and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive the Offer Price (the “Merger Consideration”), payable net to the holder in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law. The Merger Consideration is payable in accordance with Section 2.02(b).

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Shares and Parent-Owned Shares. Each Share held in the treasury of the Company or owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned Company Subsidiary and each Share owned by Purchaser, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) Shares of Purchaser. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Purchaser issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Company.

SECTION 2.02 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company approved in advance by the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”), and enter into a paying agent agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company with such Paying Agent for the payment of the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article II. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause the Surviving Company to deposit, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares), cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.01(a) (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent

8

and at Parent’s sole risk. Earnings on the Payment Fund in excess of the amounts payable to the holders of Shares pursuant to Section 2.01(a) shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and the Surviving Company and shall be paid to Parent or the Surviving Company, as Parent directs.

(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be mailed to each person who was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(a): a letter of transmittal (which shall be in such form as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree and shall be prepared prior to the Closing and which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Shares shall pass, only upon proper delivery of such Shares to the Paying Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the certificates evidencing such Shares (each, a “Certificate” and, together, the “Certificates”) or the non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) in exchange for the Merger Consideration which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(a). Upon (A) surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Paying Agent for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto or (B) receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in the case of Book-Entry Shares, and, in each case, such other documents as may customarily be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of Shares represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(a), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the Merger Consideration may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificates so surrendered are registered if the Certificates representing such Shares shall be presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required solely by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article II. No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Article II. Any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II. Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall be made only to the person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered.

(c) No Further Rights. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, holders of Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except as provided herein or by applicable Law. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares presented to the Paying Agent or Parent for any reason shall be canceled against delivery of the Merger Consideration to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

9

(d) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Company, upon demand, and any holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Company for, and Parent and the Surviving Company shall remain liable for, payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Payment Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto. Neither Parent nor the Surviving Company shall be liable to any person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) Withholding Rights. Each of the Paying Agent, the Surviving Company, Purchaser and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, Company Stock Options or Company RSUs such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under all applicable federal, state or local Tax Laws and shall pay any such withheld amount over to the appropriate Governmental Authority. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Paying Agent, the Surviving Company, Purchaser or Parent, as the case may be, and properly paid to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Shares, Company Stock Options or Company RSUs in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Paying Agent, the Surviving Company, Purchaser or Parent, as the case may be.

(f) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon (i) the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and (ii) if required by the Surviving Company, the receipt by it of an indemnity bond in form and substance and with surety reasonably satisfactory to the Surviving Company, the Paying Agent shall pay in respect of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

SECTION 2.03 Company Stock Options, Company RSUs.

(a) At the Effective Time, each outstanding option (each, a “Company Stock Option”) to purchase Shares granted under the Company Stock Plans (or granted as an inducement award outside of a Company Stock Plan) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time and each restricted stock unit (each, a “Company RSU”) that is subject to a Company RSU award granted under the Company Stock Plans and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become fully vested as of the Effective Time.

10

(b) Each Company Stock Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time and has an exercise price per Share that is less than the Merger Consideration shall (subject to the provisions of this Section 2.03) be canceled effective as of the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive, within five (5) Business Days following the Closing, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the amount by which the Merger Consideration exceeds the applicable exercise price per Share of such Company Stock Option, and (ii) the aggregate number of Shares issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option. All such payments shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local Tax withholding requirements. Each Company Stock Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time and has an exercise price per Share that is greater than the Merger Consideration shall be canceled effective as of the Effective Time without the payment of consideration and have no further force or effect.

(c) Each Company RSU that vests in accordance with Section 2.03(a) shall be canceled effective as of the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive, within five (5) Business Days following the Closing, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the Merger Consideration and (ii) the aggregate number of vested Shares subject to such Company RSU. All such payments shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local Tax withholding requirements.

(d) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Agreement Date and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if applicable, any committee thereof administering the Company Stock Plans) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions that are necessary for the treatment of the Company Stock Options and the Company RSUs pursuant to this Section 2.03, which resolutions shall also provide that such Company Stock Options and Company RSUs, and each of the Company Stock Plans, shall terminate conditioned upon, and effective as of, the Effective Time.

SECTION 2.04 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held of record or beneficially by a person who has not voted in favor of approval and adoption of this Agreement and who is entitled to demand and properly exercises dissenters’ rights with respect to such Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenters Rights”), shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration for such Dissenting Shares but instead shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the Dissenters Rights; provided, however, that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to dissent under the Dissenters Rights, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for the right to receive, the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon.

11

(b) The Company shall provide prompt notice to Parent of any demands and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law that are received by the Company for Dissenters Rights with respect to any Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

SECTION 2.05 Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if between the Agreement Date and the Effective Time the outstanding Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution occurring (or for which a record date is established), then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(c) The Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) (i) provide Parent written notice of (A) the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or (B) any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any Representatives of the Company concerning an Acquisition Proposal and (ii) disclose to Parent the identity of such person making, and an unredacted copy of, any such Acquisition Proposal or any such inquiry, offer, proposal or request made in writing (or, if made orally, a reasonably detailed description of such Acquisition Proposal or any such inquiry, offer, proposal or request). The Company shall, promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof (and in any event within 24 hours), provide Parent (and its outside counsel) with copies of versions of definitive or other agreements including schedules and exhibits thereto (which may be redacted to the extent necessary to protect confidential information of the person making such Acquisition Proposal) relating to such Acquisition Proposal, in each case exchanged between the Company, on the one hand, and the person making

37

such Acquisition Proposal or any of its Representatives, on the other hand. The Company shall promptly, and in any event within 24 hours, following a determination by the Company Board (or any committee thereof) that an Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal, notify Parent of such determination.

(d) Except as expressly set forth in Section 6.03(e), neither the Company nor the Company Board (or any committee thereof), shall, and neither shall publicly propose to: (i) withhold, withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Purchaser, the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) approve or recommend any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) enter into any Acquisition Agreement or (iv) refrain from recommending against (and reaffirming the Company Board Recommendation) any Acquisition Proposal that is a tender offer or exchange offer within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement thereof (any such action, other than those set forth in the preceding clause (iii), an “Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Acceptance Time and so long as the Company is not in breach (or deemed breach within the meaning of Section 6.03(h) below) of this Section 6.03, the Company Board may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change (and in respect of the immediately following clause (x), cause the Company to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Parent of such termination (so long as, prior to, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, such termination, the Company pays to Parent the Company Termination Fee)), if (x) the Company receives an unsolicited, written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel) is a Superior Proposal and determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that its failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (y) an Intervening Event occurs and as a result thereof the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that:

(i) prior to effecting such an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to a Superior Proposal, (A) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change, (B) the Company has provided Parent a copy of all proposed definitive agreements (including all financing documents, if applicable) with respect to such Superior Proposal and all of the information that is specified in Section 6.03(c) with respect to such Superior Proposal, (C) if requested to do so by Parent, for a period of five (5) calendar days following delivery of such notice, the Company shall have discussed and negotiated in good faith, and shall have made the Representatives of the Company available to discuss and negotiate in good faith, with Parent and its Representatives, any bona fide proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (D) no earlier than the end of such five (5) calendar day period, the Company Board (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor) shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement proposed by Parent during such five (5) calendar day period, that such Superior Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal and that the failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change in connection therewith would be

38

inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being understood and agreed that any change to the financial or other material terms of a proposal that was previously the subject of a notice hereunder shall require a new notice to Parent as provided above and require the Company to again comply with the requirements of this Section 6.03(e)(i)) with respect to any such new notice, but with respect to any such subsequent notices references herein to a “five (5) calendar day period” shall be deemed references to a “three (3) calendar day period”); and

(ii) prior to effecting such an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to an Intervening Event, (A) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change, describing in reasonable detail the reasons for such Adverse Recommendation Change, (B) if requested to do so by Parent, for a period of five (5) calendar days following delivery of such notice, the Company shall have discussed and negotiated in good faith, and shall have made the Representatives of the Company available to discuss and negotiate in good faith, with Parent and its Representatives any bona fide proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (C) no earlier than the end of such five (5) calendar day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement proposed by Parent during such five (5) calendar day period and after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would still be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement (including nothing contained in Section 6.08) shall prevent the Company or the Company Board from issuing a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position with respect to a tender offer contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any disclosure to the holders of Shares if the Company Board determines (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that its failure to so disclose would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that, in each case, any Adverse Recommendation Change may only be made in accordance with Section 6.03(e). For the avoidance of doubt, neither a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act nor a factually accurate public statement that describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto (without including a reaffirmation) shall not be deemed an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(g) Except as set forth in Section 8.03(e) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, for purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Acquisition Proposal” means any oral or written proposal or offer for a transaction or series of related transactions (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) involving: (i) the purchase or other acquisition by any person or “group” (as defined in or under Section 13(d) of the Exchange

39

Act), directly or indirectly, of more than twenty percent of the outstanding Shares, or any tender offer or exchange offer by any person or “group” (as defined in or under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) that, if consummated in accordance with its terms, would result in such person or “group” beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, more than twenty percent of the outstanding Shares; (ii) a merger, consolidation, joint venture, business combination, share exchange, recapitalization, or other similar transaction involving the Company pursuant to which any person or group (or the stockholders of any person or group) would beneficially own, directly or indirectly, twenty percent or more of the outstanding Company Common Stock or twenty percent or more of the voting power of the surviving entity in a merger involving the Company or the resulting direct or indirect parent of the Company or such surviving entity (or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities representing such voting power); (iii) a sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition, directly or indirectly, of more than twenty percent of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (whether based on the fair market value, revenue generation or net income), including in any such case through the acquisition of one or more Subsidiaries owning such assets; or (iv) a liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

(ii) “Intervening Event” means any material event, circumstance, change, effect, development or condition (other than an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, offer or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal) that was not known or reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the Agreement Date (or if known, the magnitude or material consequences of which were not known or reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the Agreement Date).

(iii) “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made by any person or group (other than Parent or Purchaser) after the Agreement Date, which Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach (or deemed breach within the meaning of Section 6.03(h) below) of this Section 6.03, that (1) would result in such person or group (or in the case of a direct merger between such person and the Company, the shareholders of such person) acquiring, directly or indirectly, fifty percent or more of the outstanding Shares or all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (2) is on terms that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel and after taking into account all the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal) are more favorable to the Company’s stockholders from a financial point of view than the Transactions (taking into account any proposed amendment or modification proposed by Parent pursuant to Section 6.03(e)(i)) and (3) the Company Board determines (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) is reasonably capable of being consummated in accordance with its terms in a reasonable period of time (as compared to the Transactions), taking into account all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects (including certainty of closing, certainty of financing and the identity of the person making the Acquisition Proposal) of such proposal.

40

(h) Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that in the event any Representative of the Company or any Company Subsidiary takes any action, on behalf of the Company, which, if taken by the Company, would constitute a breach of this Section 6.03, and the Company does not take reasonable action to seek to cure such breach within two (2) Business Days of the earlier of (x) the date on which the Company receives written notice from Parent or Purchaser of such breach and (y) the date on which the Company obtains Knowledge of such breach, then the Company shall be deemed to be in breach of this Section 6.03.

SECTION 6.04 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to, to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL, honor and fulfill in all respects the obligations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries under any and all indemnification agreements between the Company or any Company Subsidiary and any of their respective present or former directors and officers (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”). In addition, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Company shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation and indemnification than are set forth in the Company Charter or the Company Bylaws, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely in any material respect the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors or officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and settlement amounts paid in connection with any Action (whether arising before or after the Effective Time), whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or relating to any action or omission in their capacity as a director or officer of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, occurring on or before the Effective Time, and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Surviving Company shall pay all expenses of each Indemnified Party in advance of the final disposition of any such Action, subject to receipt of an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined in accordance with applicable Law that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification. In the event of any such Action, (i) subject to the undertaking described in the previous sentence, the Surviving Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel selected by the Indemnified Parties, promptly after statements therefor are received, (ii) the Surviving Company shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Action to which an Indemnified Party is a party (and in respect of which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Action or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents, and (iii) the Surviving Company shall cooperate in the defense of any such matter; provided, however, that the Surviving Company shall not be liable for any settlement effected without the Surviving Company’s written consent

41

(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided further that, in the event that any claim for indemnification is asserted or made within such six-year period, all rights to indemnification in respect of such claim shall continue until the disposition of such claim. The rights of each Indemnified Party under this Section 6.04(b) shall be in addition to any rights such person may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organizational documents) of the Company and the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries, or under any Law or under any indemnification agreement of any Indemnified Party with the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

(c) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to maintain in effect a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (a true and complete copy of which has been previously made available to Parent) with coverage in amount and scope at least as favorable, in the aggregate, to such persons as the coverage under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy; provided, that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Company be required to expend pursuant to this Section 6.04(c) more than an amount per year equal to 250% of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such coverage; provided further that, if the annual premium of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount. At Parent’s option, Parent may purchase prior to the Effective Time a six-year prepaid “tail policy” covering those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, in which case Parent and the Surviving Company shall be relieved of their obligations pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence; provided, that if a prepaid policy has been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) maintain such policy in full force and effect for its full term, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) In the event Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.04.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.04 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, and his or her heirs and Representatives and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such individual may have under any certificate of incorporation or bylaws, by contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.04 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies. The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Company under this Section 6.04 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Party unless (x) such termination or modification is required by applicable Law or (y) the affected Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.04).

42

SECTION 6.05 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) Parent hereby agrees that, for a period of 12 months immediately following the Effective Time, it shall, or it shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, provide each employee of the Company and of each of the Company Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time (each, an “Employee”) with (i) a base salary, commissions and annual bonus that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to such Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) employee benefits (excluding equity-based compensation) that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to (1) Employees by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or (2) similarly situated employees of Parent or any of its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Employees shall receive credit for vesting and eligibility purposes under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Parent (but not for purposes of benefit accruals under a defined benefit pension plan), the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries under which each Employee may be eligible to participate on or after the Effective Time to the same extent recognized by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries under comparable Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of any such benefit. Such plan, program or arrangement shall credit each such Employee for service accrued or deemed accrued on or prior to the Effective Time with the Company, any Company Subsidiary and all Affiliates where service with the Affiliate was credited under a comparable Plan of the Company prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to be treated as an amendment of any particular Plan, or to create any third-party beneficiary rights in any Employee, any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall alter or limit the ability of Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, or to terminate the employment of any Employee.

SECTION 6.06 Further Action.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Parties shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts (subject to compliance with applicable Law) to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to promptly do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate and make effective the Transactions, including (i) using reasonable best efforts to obtain from any Governmental Authority or any other third party any authorizations, consents, Orders, approvals, licenses, permits or waivers required to be obtained or made by any of the Parties or any of their

43

respective Subsidiaries in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, as promptly as practicable after the Agreement Date, (ii) making all necessary filings, and thereafter making any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions required under (A) the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and any other applicable federal or state securities Laws, (B) the HSR Act and any related governmental request thereunder, and (C) any other applicable Law and (iii) executing or delivering any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Transactions and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to the rules and regulations of any applicable Law (including all information required to be included in the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9) in connection with the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent and the Company agree that nothing contained in this Section 6.06(a) shall modify or affect their respective rights and responsibilities under Section 6.06(b).

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Company and Parent (and their respective Affiliates, if applicable) shall: (i) promptly, but in no event later than ten Business Days after the Agreement Date, file any and all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such party under the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions; and (ii) promptly make all filings, and use reasonable best efforts to timely obtain all consents, permits, authorizations, waivers, clearances and approvals, and to cause the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods, as may be required under any other applicable Antitrust Laws (to the extent required); (iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable provide such information as may be requested by the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) under the HSR Act or by any other Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions, as well as any information required to be submitted to comply with a request for additional information in order to commence or end a statutory waiting period; and (iv) promptly take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable actions and steps requested or required by any Governmental Authority as a condition to granting any consent, permit, authorization, waiver, clearance and approvals, and to cause the prompt expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period and to resolve such objections, if any, as the FTC and the DOJ, or other Governmental Authorities of any other jurisdiction for which consents, permits, authorizations, waivers, clearances, approvals and expirations or terminations of waiting periods are required with respect to the Transactions; provided that Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries will only be required to take or commit to take any such action, or agree to any such condition or restriction, if such action, commitment, agreement, condition or restriction is binding on Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, only in the event the Closing occurs.

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.06, each Party shall: (i) give the other Parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry or Action by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions; (ii) keep the other Parties reasonably informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry or Action; (iii) promptly inform the other Parties of any communication to or from the FTC, DOJ or any other Governmental Authority to the extent regarding the Transactions, or regarding any such

44

request, inquiry or Action, and provide a copy of all written communications, correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions; and (iv) pull and re-file any notice under the HSR Act only if the other Parties agree. None of the Parties shall agree to participate in any substantive meeting, telephone call or discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of any submissions, filings, investigation (including any settlement of the investigation), Action or other inquiry relating to the Transactions unless it consults with the other Parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting, telephone call or discussion. Subject to applicable Law, in advance and to the extent practicable, each of Parent or the Company, as the case may be, will consult the other on all the information relating to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries that appear in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. The Parties will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods, including under the HSR Act; provided, however, that if review of any information would be material in connection with any second request (or similar process) such information shall be provided solely to those individuals acting as outside antitrust counsel for the other Parties (provided that such counsel shall not disclose such information to such other Parties and shall enter into a joint defense agreement with the providing Party).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent, after, to the extent practicable, prior consultation with the Company, shall have the principal responsibility for devising and implementing the strategy for obtaining any necessary antitrust, competition or investment review clearances, including in connection with the determination of any actions to be taken under Section 6.06(b), and shall take the lead in all meetings and communications with any Governmental Authority in connection with obtaining any necessary antitrust, competition or investment review clearances.

(e) Neither Parent nor Purchaser shall, nor shall they permit their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, acquire or agree to acquire any rights, assets, business, person or division thereof (through acquisition, license, joint venture, collaboration or otherwise), if such acquisition, would reasonably be expected to materially delay or materially and adversely affect Parent’s or Purchaser’s ability to: (i) obtain the timely expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act or (ii) avoid the entry of, the commencement of litigation seeking the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Order that would materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions.

SECTION 6.07 Obligations of Parent and Purchaser. Parent hereby unconditionally guarantees the due, prompt and faithful payment, performance and discharge by Purchaser of, and the compliance by Purchaser with, all of the covenants, agreements, obligations and undertakings of Purchaser under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Parent covenants and agrees to take all actions necessary or advisable to ensure such payment, performance and discharge by Purchaser hereunder and agrees to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by Purchaser.

45

SECTION 6.08 Public Announcements. The initial press release relating to this Agreement shall be a joint press release, the text of which has been agreed to by each of Parent and the Company; provided, however, that each Party may issue its own press release relating to this Agreement in lieu of a joint press release in the event that (i) such Party is required by applicable Law or the requirements of NASDAQ or Euronext Paris to issue a press release relating to this Agreement or (ii) the Parties fail to agree on the text of a joint press release; provided, further, in the event that the Parties issue their own respective press releases in lieu of a join press release, the issuing Party shall use its reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party before issuing such press release. Thereafter until the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or any of the Transactions and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that a Party may, without the prior consent of the other Parties, issue such press release or make such public statement (A) to the extent the press release or public statement contains information that is consistent with previous releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by the Parties (or individually, if approved by the other Party) in accordance with this Section 6.08, or (B) as may be required by Law, Order or the applicable rules of NASDAQ or Euronext Paris, in which case the issuing Party shall use its reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party before issuing any press release or making any such public statements, except with respect to the matters described in, and subject to the requirements of, Section 6.03, Section 8.01 and Section 8.03, or in connection with any dispute between the Parties regarding this Agreement.

SECTION 6.09 Transfer Taxes. Except as set forth in Section 2.02(b), Parent and the Company shall cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing of all returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any sales, transfer, stamp, stock transfer, value added, use, real property transfer or gains and any similar Taxes that become payable in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except as set forth in Section 2.02(b), each of Parent and the Surviving Company agrees to assume liability for and pay any sales, transfer, stamp, stock transfer, value added, use, real property transfer or gains and any similar Taxes, as well as any transfer, recording, registration and other fees that may be imposed upon, payable or incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

SECTION 6.10 Stockholder Litigation. Unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, the Company shall promptly advise Parent in writing of any stockholder litigation against the Company and/or its directors or executive officers relating to the Transactions and shall on an ongoing basis keep Parent reasonably informed regarding and provide with Parent with opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such stockholder litigation; provided that the Company shall control such defense and this Section 6.10 shall not give Parent the right to direct such defense; provided, however, that no settlement of any such litigation shall be agreed to without Parent’s consent. Without otherwise limiting the Indemnified Parties’ rights with regard to the right to counsel, following the Effective Time, the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to continue to retain Foley Hoag LLP or such other counsel selected by such Indemnified Parties prior to the Effective Time to defend any stockholder litigation.

46

SECTION 6.11 Takeover Laws. If any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “interested stockholder” or other anti-takeover Law is or may become applicable to the Offer or the Merger or the other Transactions, the Company and Company Board shall grant all such approvals and take all such actions as are necessary or advisable so that such Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Law on the Transactions.

SECTION 6.12 Notification of Certain Matters. At any time after the Agreement Date, each of Parent and the Company shall give prompt notice to the other (and will subsequently keep the other informed on a reasonably current basis of any material developments related to such notice) (i) if, (A) with respect to the Company, any fact, event or circumstance occurs or exists that has had or would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect, (B) with respect to Parent or Purchaser, any fact, event or circumstance occurs or exists that has had or would reasonably be expected to result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect, or (C) any fact, event or circumstance occurs or exists that is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII or Annex I not being able to be satisfied prior to the Outside Date or is reasonably likely to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions; (ii) upon receipt of any written notice to the receiving Party from any third person alleging that the consent or approval of such third person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions and the pursuit of such consent could (in the good faith determination of such Party) reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions; or (iii) upon receipt of any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority, NASDAQ or Euronext Paris (or any other securities market) in connection with the Transactions. No notice given by any Party pursuant to this Section 6.12 shall (x) limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or conditions contained in this Agreement or (y) be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Schedule or constitute an exception to any representation or warranty.

For purposes of this Agreement, “intentional breach” or “intentionally breached” shall mean (i) with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, a material breach of such representation or warranty that has been made with the knowledge of the breaching Party, which breach would give rise to the failure of any Offer Condition, and (ii) with respect to any breaches or failures to perform any of the covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, a material breach, or material failure to perform, that is a consequence of an act or omission undertaken by the breaching Party with the knowledge that the taking of, or failure to take, such act is a material breach of this Agreement.

(c) If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) or Section 8.01(b)(ii) (in the case of Section 8.01(b)(ii), as a result of any Order, decree or ruling or action pursuant to or arising under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law) and as of the Termination Date, (i) Purchaser is not then required to accept for payment validly tendered Shares pursuant to paragraph (b) of Annex I and (ii) none of the conditions specified in paragraph (c)(ii), (c)(iii) or (c)(iv) of Annex I shall have occurred and then be continuing, then Parent shall pay the Company the amount of $24,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”).

51

(d) The Company Termination Fee payable by the Company hereunder shall be paid to Parent or its designee by the Company in immediately available funds: (i) concurrently with a termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(ii), (ii) prior to or concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, a termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(ii), (iii) within two (2) Business Days after a termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(i) or Section 8.01(d)(iv). The payment to Parent or its designees of the Company Termination Fee shall, subject always to Section 8.02(b), be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than in the event of a termination pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(iii) or Section 8.01(d)(iv) in the event of an intentional breach by the Company) of Parent for any loss suffered by Parent or Purchaser as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated to the extent paid and upon such payment in accordance with this Section 8.03, the Company shall not have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

In no event shall either of the Company or Parent be required to pay the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, on more than one occasion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties agree that the payment of the Company Termination Fee, with respect to Parent, and the Parent Termination Fee, with respect to the Company, shall, subject to Section 8.02(b) and the second sentence of this Section 8.03(d), be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Parties with respect to the termination of this Agreement and the failure of the Transactions to be consummated. In the event that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.01 and any such payment becomes due and payable and is paid by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, upon such payment in accordance with this Section 8.03, such Party (and such Party’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders and Representatives) shall have no further liability to the other Parties under this Agreement.

(e) For purposes of Section 8.03(b)(iii), Acquisition Proposal shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.03(g)(i), except that references to 20% in the definition thereof shall be deemed to be references to 50%.

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if either of the Company or Parent fails to pay when due any amount pursuant to this Section 8.03, then such Party shall (i) reimburse the other Party for all Expenses incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by such other Party of its rights under this Section 8.03, and (ii) pay such other Party interest on such overdue amount from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

SECTION 9.04 Interpretation and Rules of Construction.

(a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Annex, Exhibit, Article or Section, such reference shall be to an Annex, Exhibit, Article or Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents, index of defined terms and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Documents, materials and information are deemed to have been “made available” to Parent and Purchaser, if such documents, materials or information were available for review by such person and its Representatives through the electronic data room (the

63

“Data Room”) entitled “Project ESKIMO,” which is hosted by Donnelley Financial Solutions Venue (https://www.rrdvenue.com) in connection with the Transactions or disclosed in a SEC Report filed and publicly available, in each case, prior to the Agreement Date. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. Any agreement, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, unless otherwise specifically indicated. References to a person are also to its successors and permitted assigns. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded, and if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the immediately following Business Day. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” and “$” will be deemed references to the lawful money of the United States of America. References to “days” shall mean “calendar days” unless expressly stated otherwise. No specific provision, representation or warranty shall limit the applicability of a more general provision, representation or warranty. It is the intent of the Parties that each representation, warranty, covenant, condition and agreement contained in this Agreement shall be given full, separate, and independent effect and that such provisions are cumulative. The phrase “ordinary course of business” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “consistent with past practice” whether or not such words actually follow such phrase. Any reference in this Agreement to a date or time shall be deemed to be such date or time in the time zone in which Boston, Massachusetts is located, unless otherwise specified.

(b) Each of the Parties has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement must be construed as if it is drafted by all the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.05 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SECTION 9.06 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, taken together with the Company Disclosure Schedule and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

64

SECTION 9.07 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided, however, that Parent and Purchaser may assign all or any of their rights and obligations hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent so long as Parent continues to remain liable for all of such obligations as if no such assignment had occurred. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 9.08 Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder, except (a) as set forth in or contemplated by the terms and provisions of Article VI and (b) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of holders of Shares, Company Stock Options or Company RSUs to receive the consideration pursuant to the Merger, as set forth in Article II.

SECTION 9.09 Remedies; Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge and 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. Each Party agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any other Party of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it whether in law or equity, including monetary damages, except as limited by Section 8.03) to (a) an Order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.

SECTION 9.10 Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any applicable principles of conflict of laws that would cause the Laws of another State to otherwise govern this Agreement.

(b) The Parties agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the Transactions (whether brought by any Party or any of its Affiliates or against any Party or any of its Affiliates) shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery; provided, however, that if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and determined exclusively in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware; and provided further that if neither the Delaware Court of Chancery nor the United States District Court for the District of Delaware has jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and determined in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware. Consistent with the preceding sentence, each of the Parties hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party; (ii) agrees that service of process will be validly effected by sending notice in accordance with Section 9.02; and (iii) irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is

65

exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the Transactions may not be enforced in or by any of the above named courts. Process in any such Action may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees that service of process on such Party as provided in Section 9.02 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.

SECTION 9.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

SECTION 9.12 Amendment. At any time prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented, but only pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by Parent, Purchaser and the Company; provided, however, that, following the Acceptance Time, no amendment may be made that would reduce the amount or change the form of Merger Consideration.

SECTION 9.13 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent, Purchaser or the Company may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of any other Party under this Agreement, (b) waive any breach or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of any other Party contained herein or in any instrument delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the covenants or agreements of any other Party or any condition to the obligations of the waiving Party contained herein; provided, however, that after the Acceptance Time, no waiver may be made that would reduce the amount or change the form of the Merger Consideration. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed by each of the Party or Parties to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure or delay of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of any rights hereunder.

SECTION 9.14 Company Disclosure Schedule. The Parties agree that any reference in a particular Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in each other Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule to which such information reasonably relates as though fully set forth in such other Section to the extent the applicability and relevance of such information to such other Section is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure. Certain items and matters may be listed in the Company Disclosure Schedule for informational purposes only and may not be required to be listed therein

66

by the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall the listing of items or matters in the Company Disclosure Schedule be deemed or interpreted to broaden, or otherwise expand the scope of, the representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement. The mere inclusion of an item in the Company Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty (x) shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material event, circumstance, change, effect, development or condition or that such item would constitute a Company Material Adverse Effect and (y) shall not be construed as an admission by the Company of any non-compliance with, or violation of, any third party rights (including any Intellectual Property rights) or any Law or Order of any Governmental Authority, such disclosures having been made solely for the purposes of creating exceptions to the representations and warranties made herein or of disclosing any information required to be disclosed under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no reference to or disclosure of a possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or Order shall be construed as an admission or indication that a breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

Exhibit 99.1

Exa Corporation to be Acquired by Dassault Systèmes

• Transaction valued at approximately $400 million or $24.25 per share

• Proven Technology and Industrialized Solutions Will Be Available to Customers in All Industries

BURLINGTON, MA, USA [September 28, 2017] Exa^® Corporation (NASDAQ:EXA), a global innovator in simulation software for product engineering, today announced that its Board of Directors has unanimously agreed to be acquired by Dassault Systèmes in a transaction valued at approximately $400 million or $24.25 per share.

Headquarted in Paris, France and Boston, Massachusetts, Dassault Systèmes (www.3ds.com) provides business and people with virtual universes to imagine sustainable innovations. Its world-leading solutions transform the way products are designed, produced, and supported. Dassault Systèmes’ collaborative solutions foster social innovation, expanding possibilities for the virtual world to improve the real world. The group brings value to over 220,000 customers of all sizes, in all industries, in more than 140 countries.

With the addition of Exa, Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform will provide customers with a proven portfolio of Lattice Boltzmann fluid simulation technologies, fully industrialized solutions and over 350 highly experienced simulation professionals.

Simulation of fluid flow, such as the cooling of an engine or the lift of a wing, is a necessary component of simulating the physical behavior of products, nature and life. For the many situations where fluid flow conditions change rapidly, simulation of dynamically variable flows is critical to accurate assessments of a product and its behavior in its environment. For these applications, the combination of Exa’s accuracy and timeliness provides results that are superior to those of alternative CFD methods.

“Exa’s unique Lattice Boltzmann simulation technology combined with our extensive professional and industry expertise has enabled us to deliver significant value to the leading companies in the global transportation and other flow-based product industries,” said Stephen Remondi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Exa. “We can solve the most challenging fluids problems faster and more accurately than traditional methods for aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, thermal management and other fluids-related applications. The combination of Exa with Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform will provide Exa with the critical mass of manpower and technology required to accelerate the delivery of our shared vision of driving the value of digital engineering knowledge, enabling everyone in the value chain to access the power of simulation for critical business decisions.”

“Both Dassault Systèmes and Exa believe in the value of an integrated focus on science and industry. It is a critical part of our commitment to delivering 3DEXPERIENCE universes that harmonize products, nature and life. Simulation of dynamic fluid flow is an important part of our multiphysics and multiscale simulation strategy,” said Bernard Charlès, Vice Chairman and CEO, Dassault Systèmes. “With Exa’s valuable application knowledge in transportation and mobility and other industry verticals, we will accelerate our delivery of industry solution experiences to benefit our existing and future customers.”

Benefits of the transaction

• Enhanced Customer Value. The complementary strengths and combined expertise of both companies enables the delivery of the power of digital engineering throughout the value chain, leading to dramatic increases in engineering and manufacturing productivity.

• Improved Collaboration. Combining the two companies will greatly enhance collaboration with customers, and facilitate the ability to offer integrated solutions and simplify both commercial and technical interactions.

• Accelerated Delivery of a Shared Vision. As one company, Exa and Dassault Systèmes will continue to deliver innovative new 3D technologies for design, engineering, CAD, modeling, simulation, and data and process management.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, a subsidiary of Dassault Systèmes will commence a tender offer within the next 10 business days to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Exa common stock for a price of $24.25 per share payable in cash upon completion of the offer. This represents a fully diluted equity value for Exa of approximately $ 400 million.

Completion of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including required regulatory approvals. The acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Today’s Conference Call Information

Today, Thursday, September 28, 2017, Dassault Systèmes will host a conference call at 11:30 AM New York time/ 4:30 PM London time/ 5:30 PM Paris time.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Date:                September 28, 2017

Subject:            Our Next Chapter

Dear Exa Team Members,

I’m writing to you today to share with you exciting news about the future of Exa. Early this morning the company issued a press release (see attachment) announcing that we have reached an agreement to be acquired by Dassault Systèmes.

Dassault has agreed to pay $24.25 per share of Exa stock – providing a significant premium to our shareholders and valuing the company at approximately $400M. This price reflects the strong value Dassault sees in Exa’s technology, products and solutions and most importantly, in the team that continues to develop and deliver our solutions to our customers.

Over the years, we built a strong partnership with Dassault to serve our customers. I have come to see a very strong alignment of go-to-market visions between our two companies. As a result, I am excited about the potential that Dassault’s resources and reach can provide to help scale our business faster and accelerate our entry in to new vertical markets.

I fully recognize that this change presents challenges and concerns in addition to opportunities. While we understand the potential, we do not yet know many of the details as to how we will work collectively to take this important next step. This is the task that now lays ahead of us and I ask each of you for your full engagement and support in the process. As has always been the case, we need your help to find the right path forward so that the next exciting chapters of Exa can be written.

Please join our company meeting Thursday at 8:30 am Boston time to hear more about this exciting news.

Sincerely,

Steve Remondi

President & CEO

Exa Corporation
