(f) Neither the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement by such Stockholder nor the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance by such Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof shall (i) result in any breach or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration, or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on such property or asset of such Stockholder pursuant to, any Contract to which such Stockholder is a party or by which such Stockholder or any property or asset of such Stockholder is bound or affected, or (ii) subject to applicable securities Laws, violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule, or regulation applicable to such Stockholder or any of such Stockholder’s properties or assets.

(h) Such Stockholder has been represented by, or had the opportunity to be represented by, independent counsel of such Stockholder’s own choosing and has had the full right and opportunity to consult with such Stockholder’s counsel, such that, to the extent, if any, that such Stockholder desired, such Stockholder (i) availed itself of such right and opportunity, (ii) has carefully read and fully understands this Agreement and the Merger Agreement in their entirety and has had each of them fully explained to such Stockholder by such Stockholder’s counsel, that such Stockholder is fully aware of the contents thereof and its meaning, intent, and legal effect, and (iii) is competent to execute this Agreement and has executed this Agreement free from coercion, duress, or undue influence.

Certain Covenants of Stockholder. (a) Subject to Section 8, each Stockholder, for such Stockholder and such Stockholders’ Affiliates (other than the Company), hereby covenants and agrees to be bound by Section 6.2 of the Merger Agreement to the same extent as the Company as if such Stockholder were a party thereto and subject to the covenants contained therein. Each Stockholder acknowledges that such Stockholder has received and reviewed copies of the Merger Agreement and each agreement ancillary thereto. (b) Prior to the Termination Date, and except as contemplated hereby, each Stockholder shall not (i) tender into any tender or exchange offer other than the Offer, (ii) sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, distribute, grant, gift, encumber, assign, or otherwise dispose of (including by merger or operation of law and whether constructively or otherwise, record or beneficial ownership or both) (collectively “Transfer”), or enter into any contract, option, agreement, or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the Transfer of any of the Covered Shares or beneficial ownership or voting power thereof or therein (including by operation of law), (iii) enter into any short sale with respect to the Covered Shares or substantially identical property or enter into or acquire an offsetting derivative contract with respect to the Covered Shares or substantially identical property, (iv) transfer any of the economic interest in the Covered Shares or enter into any transaction that has such effect, (v) grant any proxies or powers of attorney, deposit any Covered Shares into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any Covered Shares, or (vi) knowingly take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling such Stockholder from performing his obligations under this Agreement in a timely manner.

This Section 7 shall not prohibit a Transfer of the Covered Shares by Stockholder to an Affiliate of Stockholder or to any member of Stockholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of the Stockholder or any member of the Stockholder’s immediate family, or upon the death of Stockholder (if the Stockholder is an individual); provided, that a Transfer referred to in this sentence shall be permitted only if, prior to the consummation of and as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent, to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.


 
7 (c) Prior to the Termination Date, in the event that any Stockholder acquires record or beneficial ownership of, or the power to vote or direct the voting of, any additional Shares or other voting interests with respect to the Company, such Shares or voting interests shall, without further action of the parties, be deemed Covered Shares and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and the number of Covered Shares held by such Stockholder set forth on Schedule I hereto will be deemed amended to include such additional Shares accordingly and such Shares or voting interests shall automatically become Covered Shares subject to the terms of this Agreement.

Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger and/or the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement that Stockholder may have under Section 262 of the DGCL or otherwise under any applicable Law. 10. Disclosure. Each Stockholder hereby (a) consents and authorizes the publication and disclosure by Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company (including in the Offer Documents, the Schedule 14D-9 or any other publicly filed document relating to the Offer, the Merger, or the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) of (i) such Stockholder’s identity, (ii) such Stockholder’s beneficial ownership of Shares or Equity Awards (including the number of such Shares or Equity Awards beneficially owned by such Stockholder), and (iii) the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments, arrangements, and understandings under this Agreement, and any


 
8 other information that Parent, Merger Sub, or the Company reasonably determines to be required in any publicly filed document in connection with the Offer, the Merger, or otherwise with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (b) agrees as promptly as practicable to notify Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document.
