NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby agree as follows:

(a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Article 8, and that no event shall have occurred and be continuing that, had the Offer been commenced, would give rise to a right to terminate the Offer pursuant to any of the conditions set forth in Annex A, no later than 5:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Savings time on July 28, 2009, Parent shall cause Merger Sub to commence, and Merger Sub shall commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), the Offer. In the Offer, each Share accepted by Merger Sub in accordance with the terms of the Offer shall be exchanged for the right to receive from Merger Sub the Offer Price. Parent

shall cause Merger Sub to accept for payment, and Merger Sub shall accept for payment, all Shares which have been validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable following the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the above, the obligation of Merger Sub to accept for payment, and pay for all Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject (x) to the condition that the number of Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn shall be at least the minimum number of Shares required to approve this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated herein pursuant to the organizational documents of the Company and the FBCA (the “Minimum Condition”), and (y) to the other conditions set forth in Annex A. The conditions to the Offer set forth in Annex A are for the sole benefit of Parent and Merger Sub and may be asserted by Parent or Merger Sub regardless of the circumstances (including any action or inaction by Parent or Merger Sub, provided that nothing therein shall relieve any party hereto from any obligation or liability such party has under the Agreement) giving rise to such condition or may be waived by Parent or Merger Sub, in their sole discretion, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, subject to the following sentence. Merger Sub expressly reserves the right to increase the amount of consideration payable in the Offer and to waive any condition of the Offer, except the Minimum Condition; provided that, Merger Sub, at its sole option, may waive such Minimum Condition (i) if the number of Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn shall be at least equal to the difference between (x) the minimum number of Shares required to approve this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated herein pursuant to the organizational documents of the Company and the FBCA, less (y) the number of Shares subject to Support Agreements or (ii) with the prior written consent of the Company. The failure of Parent or Merger Sub at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time. Without the prior written consent of the Company, Merger Sub shall not decrease the amount of consideration payable in the Offer or change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, decrease the number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, impose additional conditions to the Offer or reduce the time period during which the Offer shall remain open. The Company agrees that no Shares held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be tendered in the Offer.

(b) On the date of commencement of the Offer, Parent and Merger Sub shall (i) file or cause to be filed with the SEC a combined Schedule 13E-3 and Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) and related Offer to Purchase, form of letter of transmittal and summary advertisement and other ancillary Offer documents and instruments pursuant to which the Offer will be made (collectively, and including any supplements or amendments thereto, the “Offer Documents”) and (ii) cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to the holders of Shares as and to the extent required by applicable Law. The Company shall promptly furnish to Parent and Merger Sub in writing all information concerning the Company that may be required by applicable securities Laws or reasonably requested by Parent or Merger Sub for inclusion in the Offer Documents. The Company hereby consents to the inclusion in the Offer Documents of all material disclosure relating to (i) the company financial advisor Allen & Company LLC (including the amount of fees and other consideration that Allen & Company LLC will receive upon consummation of or as a result of the Offer and the Merger, and the conditions therefor), (ii) the financial advisor Needham & Company (including the amount of fees and other consideration that Needham & Company shall receive in connection with the opinion referred to in Section 4.20), (iii) the opinions of each of Allen & Company LLC and Needham & Company

referred to in Section 4.20 and (iv) the information that formed the basis for rendering each of such opinions, subject to the approval of the form of such disclosure by Allen & Company LLC and Needham & Company, respectively, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule TO or the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Law. Parent and Merger Sub shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Schedule TO as so corrected, to be filed with the SEC and the Offer Documents as so corrected to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case, as soon as reasonably practicable and as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities Laws. The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents each time before any such document is filed with the SEC, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company and its counsel. Parent and Merger Sub shall provide the Company and its counsel with (i) any written comments or other communications, and shall inform them of any oral comments or other communications, that Parent, Merger Sub or their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule TO or Offer Documents promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response of Parent and Merger Sub to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given).

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Offer shall remain open until at least midnight, New York City time, on the twentieth Business Day (for this purpose calculated in accordance with Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act) following the date the Offer is commenced (the initial “Expiration Date,” and any expiration time and date established pursuant to an authorized extension of the Offer as so extended, also an “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that Merger Sub shall: (i) from time to time extend the Offer for one or more periods of up to 20 Business Days each, the length of each such period to be determined by Merger Sub in its sole discretion, if at the scheduled Expiration Date any of the conditions of the Offer, including the Minimum Condition and the conditions and requirements set forth in Annex A, shall not have been satisfied or waived, until such time as such conditions are satisfied or waived to the extent permitted by this Agreement, and (ii) extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof applicable to the Offer. Merger Sub may, from time to time, extend the Offer for a period of no more than 20 days in the aggregate, if at the scheduled Expiration Date less than 80% of the number of Shares then outstanding less the number of shares held by persons subject to Support Agreements (the “Support Agreement Shares”) have been validly tendered and not withdrawn. Notwithstanding the above, in no event shall Merger Sub be required to, or shall Parent be required to cause Merger Sub to, extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date (as hereinafter defined). In no event shall Merger Sub extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date without the consent of the Company. Parent and Merger Sub shall comply with the obligations respecting prompt payment and announcement under the Exchange Act, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, accept for payment, and pay for, all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer promptly following the acceptance of such Shares for payment pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement. This paragraph shall not be deemed to impair, limit

or otherwise restrict in any manner the right of Parent or Merger Sub to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII.

(a) The Company hereby approves of and consents to the Offer and represents and warrants that the Board, at a meeting duly called and held, has, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, unanimously (i) determined that it is fair and advisable for Parent to acquire the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, in all respects and such approval constitutes approval of the Offer, this Agreement and the Merger for purposes of the FBCA, (ii) resolved to recommend that the shareholders of the Company accept the Offer, tender their Shares in the Offer and to the extent required, that the shareholders of the Company approve and adopt this Agreement and the Merger (such recommendation, the “Recommendation”) and (iii) taken all other actions necessary to exempt the Offer, the Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby from any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “interested shareholder,” “business combination,” “affiliated transaction” or other similar statute or regulation promulgated by a Governmental Entity (“Takeover Statute”). The Company consents to the inclusion of such approval and Recommendation in the Offer Documents.

(b) The Company hereby agrees to file with the SEC on the date that Parent and Merger Sub file the Offer Documents pursuant to Section 1.1(b), a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 pertaining to the Offer (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) containing the Recommendation. The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to mail such Schedule 14D-9 to the shareholders of the Company concurrently with the mailing of the Offer Documents. The Schedule 14D-9 will comply in all material respects with the provisions of applicable federal securities laws and, on the date filed with the SEC and on the date first published, sent or given to the Company’s shareholders and at the Acceptance Time, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no representation is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by Parent or Merger Sub in writing for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9. The Company, Parent and Merger Sub each agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9, if and to the extent that it shall have become false or misleading in any material respect and the Company further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Schedule 14D-9, as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the holders of Shares as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 (including each amendment or supplement thereto) before it is filed with the SEC and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel. In addition, the Company shall provide Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel with copies of any written comments, and shall inform them of any oral comments, that the Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly after receipt of such comments, and any written or oral

responses thereto. Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any such responses and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel prior to their submission.

(c) In connection with the Offer, the Company will promptly furnish Parent and Merger Sub with mailing labels, security position listings and any available listing or computer files containing the names and addresses of the record holders of the Shares as of a recent date and shall furnish Merger Sub with such additional information and assistance (including, without limitation, updated lists of shareholders, mailing labels and lists of securities positions) as Merger Sub or its agents may reasonably request in communicating the Offer to the record and beneficial holders of Shares. Subject to Section 6.2, the Company shall, and shall cause its directors, officers, employees and other Representatives to, use their reasonable best efforts to make solicitations and recommendations to the holders of Shares for purposes of causing the Minimum Condition to be satisfied, including without limitation that upon Parent’s request, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall promptly prepare a joint presentation to RiskMetrics Group recommending this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger.

(a) Promptly upon the acceptance for payment by Merger Sub (the time of such acceptance, the “Acceptance Time”), Parent or any of their Affiliates of Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer and from time to time thereafter, and subject to the last four sentences of this Section 1.3(a), Merger Sub shall be entitled to designate up to such number of directors, rounded up to the nearest whole number constituting at least a majority of the directors, on the Company Board as will give Merger Sub representation on the Company Board equal to the product of the number of directors on the Company Board (giving effect to any increase in the number of directors pursuant to this Section 1.3) and the percentage that such number of Shares so purchased plus the number of Support Agreement Shares bears to the total number of outstanding Shares (not on a fully diluted basis), and the Company shall, upon request by Merger Sub, promptly take all actions necessary, including, at the election of the Company, increasing the size of the Company Board or securing the resignation of such number of directors, to enable Merger Sub’s designees to be appointed to the Company Board and to cause Merger Sub’s designees to be so appointed (the date on which the majority of the Company’s directors are designees of Merger Sub that have been effectively appointed to the Company Board in accordance herewith, the “Board Appointment Date”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Board Appointment Date to be the same day as the Acceptance Time. At such times, subject to applicable Law and stock exchange listing standards, the Company will cause persons designated by Merger Sub to constitute a majority of each committee of the Company Board, other than any committee of the Company Board established to take action under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that at least three of the members of the Company Board as of the date hereof who qualify as independent directors for purposes of the continued listing requirements of NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations (such directors, the “Independent Incumbent Directors”) shall remain members of the Company Board until the Effective Time (as defined in Section 2.3 hereof). If the number of Independent Incumbent Directors is reduced

below three prior to the Effective Time, the remaining Independent Incumbent Directors (or if there is only one such director, that remaining director) shall be entitled to designate a person (or persons) to fill such vacancy (or vacancies), and each Independent Incumbent Director shall also designate a successor to ensure that there will always be at least one Independent Incumbent Director at all times prior to the Effective Time (provided each such person meets the independence requirements of the rules and regulations of the SEC and NASDAQ and, once any such person fills a vacancy, such director (or directors) shall be deemed to be an Independent Incumbent Director (or Independent Incumbent Directors) for purposes hereof). If no Independent Incumbent Directors remain prior to the Effective Time, a majority of the members of the Board shall be entitled to fill such vacancies (provided each such person meets the independence requirements of the rules and regulations of the SEC and NASDAQ and such director (or directors) shall be deemed to be an Independent Incumbent Director (or Independent Incumbent Directors) for purposes hereof). The provisions of this Section 1.3 are in addition to and shall not limit any rights that Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates may have as a record holder or beneficial owner of Shares as a matter of applicable Law with respect to the election of directors or otherwise.

(b) The Company’s obligation to appoint designees to the Company Board shall be subject to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder. The Company shall promptly take all action required pursuant to such Section and Rule in order to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.3 and shall include in the Schedule 14D-9 such information with respect to the Company and its officers and directors as is required under such Section and Rule in order to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.3. Merger Sub will supply to the Company in writing promptly for inclusion into the Schedule 14D-9 and be solely responsible for any information with respect to itself and its nominees, officers, directors and Affiliates required by such Section and Rule.

(c) Following the election or appointment of Merger Sub’s designees pursuant to this Section 1.3 and prior to the Effective Time, if there shall be any Independent Incumbent Directors, any termination of this Agreement by the Company, any extension by the Company of the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of Parent or Merger Sub or waiver of any of the Company’s rights hereunder, or any amendment of this Agreement, or other action adversely affecting the rights of shareholders of the Company (other than Parent or Merger Sub) to receive the Offer Price (except as permitted by the terms of this Agreement), will require the concurrence of a majority of such Independent Incumbent Directors.

(a) The Company hereby grants to Parent and Merger Sub an irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”) to purchase, at a price per Share equal to the Offer Price, up to such number of Shares (the “Top-Up Option Shares”) that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Parent and Merger Sub and any wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option, constitutes one Share more than 80% of the number of Shares that will be outstanding on a fully diluted basis immediately after the issuance of the Top-Up Option Shares. The Top-Up Option will be exercised by Parent or Merger Sub immediately after the Acceptance Time if following such Acceptance Time, Parent or Merger Sub do not own 80% of the outstanding Shares; provided, however, that the obligation

of the Company to deliver Top-Up Option Shares upon the exercise of the Top-Up Option is subject to the conditions that (i) no judgment, injunction, order or decree of any Governmental Entity shall prohibit the exercise of the Top-Up Option or the delivery of the Top-Up Option Shares in respect of such exercise, (ii) the issuance of the Top-Up Option Shares will not cause the Company to have more Shares outstanding than are authorized by the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, and (iii) Merger Sub has accepted for payment and paid for all Shares validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn. The parties shall cooperate to ensure that the issuance of the Top-Up Option Shares is accomplished consistent with all applicable legal requirements of all Governmental Entities, including compliance with an applicable exemption from registration of the Top-Up Option Shares under the Securities Act.

(b) The Company shall, as soon as practicable following receipt of notice from Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, of their intent to exercise of the Top-Up Option, notify Parent and Merger Sub of the number of Shares then outstanding. The closing of the purchase of the Top-Up Option Shares will take place at a time and on a date to be specified by Parent or Merger Sub, which shall be no later than one Business Day after the exercise of the Top-Up Option, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022, unless another time, date or place is specified by Parent or Merger Sub. Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, shall pay the Company an amount equal to the Offer Price multiplied by the number of Top-Up Option Shares specified by Parent (the “Top-Up Consideration”), and the Company shall, at Parent’s or Merger Sub’s request, cause to be issued to Parent or Merger Sub a certificate representing the Top-Up Option Shares. The Top-Up Consideration may be paid by Merger Sub or Parent by executing and delivering to the Company a promissory note having a principal amount equal to the aggregate cash purchase price for the Top-Up Shares. Any such promissory note shall bear interest at the rate of interest per annum equal to the prime lending rate prevailing from time to time during such period as published in The Wall Street Journal, shall mature on the first anniversary of the date of execution and delivery of such promissory note and may be prepaid without premium or penalty.

Section 2.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the FBCA, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving company in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent.

Section 2.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York at 10:00 a.m., local time, on a date to be specified by the parties (the “Closing Date”) which shall be no later than the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions).

Section 2.3 Effective Time. On the Closing Date, the Company shall cause the Merger to be consummated by executing, delivering and filing articles of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida in accordance with the relevant provisions of the FBCA and other applicable Florida Law. The Merger shall become effective on such date as the Articles of Merger are duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, or at such later date as may be agreed by Parent and the Company in writing and specified in the Articles of Merger in accordance with the FBCA (such date as the Merger becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

Section 2.4 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the FBCA.

(a) The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended prior to the date hereof (the “Articles of Incorporation”) shall be the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation following the Merger until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof, hereof and of applicable Law, in each case consistent with the obligations set forth in Section 6.7.

(b) The by-laws of Merger Sub, as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall by virtue of the Merger, be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof, hereof and of applicable Law, in each case consistent with the obligations set forth in Section 6.7.

Section 2.8 Further Assurances. If at any time after the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of either Merger Sub or the Company, or (b) otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation and its proper officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either of Merger Sub and the Company, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to do, in the name and on behalf of either Merger Sub or the Company, all such other acts and things as may be necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm the Surviving Corporation’s right, title or interest in, to or under any of

the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of Merger Sub or the Company and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the holders of any securities of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub subject to Sections 3.1(d) and 3.1(e), each issued and outstanding Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than (i) any Cancelled Shares (as defined, and to the extent provided in Section 3.1(a)), (ii) any Dissenting Shares (as defined, and to the extent provided in Section 3.1(e)), and (iii) any Rollover Shares, shall thereupon be converted automatically into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive the Offer Price. All Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Offer Price as provided in this Section 3.1 shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and the holders of Certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares other than the right to receive the Offer Price.

(b) Parent, Merger Sub and Company-Owned Shares. Each Share that is owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any (other than any Rollover Shares, which shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time), or held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (in each case, other than any such Shares held on behalf of third parties) (the “Cancelled Shares”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange for such cancellation and retirement.

(c) Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub 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 Corporation and, together with Rollover Shares, shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing the common stock of Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) Adjustments. If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of capital stock, shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of Shares, or any stock

dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period (excluding, in each case, normal quarterly cash dividends), merger or other similar transaction, the Offer Price shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change; provided that nothing in this Section 3.1(d) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Dissenters’ Rights. The provisions of this Section 3.1(e) shall not apply unless the shareholders of the Company are determined to have the right to dissent from the Merger, and receive the fair value of their Shares, pursuant to Sections 607.1301 -607.1333 of the FBCA. In such event, and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a shareholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such Shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the applicable provisions of the FBCA (the “Dissenting Shareholders”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Offer Price (the “Dissenting Shares,” and together with the Cancelled Shares, the “Excluded Shares”), but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the appraised value of such Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the FBCA (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the FBCA), unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost rights to appraisal under the FBCA. If any Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, such holder’s Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time, the Offer Price for each such Share in accordance with Section 3.1(a), without any interest thereon. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Shares, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the FBCA and received by the Company relating to shareholders’ rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the FBCA. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment.

(a) Paying Agent. At or immediately subsequent to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with a U.S. bank or trust company that shall be appointed by Parent and approved in advance by the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) to act as a paying agent hereunder (the “Paying Agent”), in trust for the benefit of holders of the Shares, cash in U.S. dollars sufficient to pay the aggregate Offer Price in exchange for all of the Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Excluded Shares and the Rollover Shares) pursuant to the provisions of this Article III (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the second Business Day following the Effective Time, the Paying Agent shall mail to each holder of record of Shares whose Shares were converted into the Offer Price pursuant to Section 3.1, (A) a letter of transmittal which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Shares (“Certificates” or “Certificate”) shall pass, only upon delivery of Certificates to the Paying Agent (and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably determine prior to the Effective Time) and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) in exchange for the Offer Price.

(ii) Upon surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may customarily be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings) equal to the product of (x) the number of Shares represented by such holder’s properly surrendered Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares multiplied by (y) the Offer Price. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer or stock records of the Company, any cash to be paid upon due surrender of the Certificate formerly representing such Shares may be paid to such a transferee if such Certificate is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer or other Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(iii) The Surviving Corporation, the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement to any Person such amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign Tax Law with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted and paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity, such withheld or deducted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.

(c) Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the Shares that were outstanding immediately

prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or Parent for transfer, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the proper amount pursuant to and subject to the requirements of this Article III.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains undistributed to the former holders of Shares for 180 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation upon demand, and any former holders of Shares who have not surrendered their Shares in accordance with this Section 3.2 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of their claim for the Offer Price, without any interest thereon, upon due surrender of their Shares.

(e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which the related Offer Price would, pursuant to applicable Law, escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such Offer Price shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, immediately prior to such time, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest all cash included in the Exchange Fund as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that any investment of such cash shall in all events be limited to direct short-term obligations of, or short-term obligations fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the U.S. government and that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this Article III, and in the event of any losses to the Exchange Fund from any investment such that the Exchange Fund is diminished below the level required for the Paying Agent to make prompt cash payment under Section 3.2(b), the Company shall immediately deposit additional cash into the Exchange Fund to the extent necessary to reimburse the Exchange Fund for such investment losses. Any interest and other income, net of any losses, resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Surviving Corporation.

(g) Lost Certificates. In the case of any Certificate that has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such person of an indemnity agreement or, at the election of Parent or the Paying Agent, a bond in customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate an amount equal to the number of Shares represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate multiplied by the Offer Price.

Section 3.3 Effect of the Offer and the Merger on Company Stock Options and Company Restricted Shares.

(a) Each outstanding option to acquire Shares (each, a “Company Stock Option”), whether or not then vested or exercisable, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (other than Company Stock Options held by persons who enter Support Agreements and separately agree to the treatment of such Company Stock Options in the Offer and the Merger, which Company Stock Options shall be treated in the manner so agreed) shall, as of immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, become fully vested and be cancelled and in exchange therefor be converted into the right to receive a payment in cash, payable in U.S. dollars and without interest, equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (x) the Offer Price over (y) the exercise price per Share subject to such Company Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of Shares for which such Company Stock Option shall not theretofore have been exercised; provided, that if the exercise price per Share of any such Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Offer Price, such Company Stock Option shall be cancelled without any cash payment being made in respect thereof. The Surviving Corporation or the Company, as applicable, shall pay the holders of such cancelled Company Stock Options the cash payments described in this Section 3.3(a) on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the Acceptance Time occurs, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days thereafter.

(b) Other than Company Restricted Shares held by persons who enter into Support Agreements and agree otherwise, immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) each award of restricted Company common stock (the “Company Restricted Shares”) other than the Rollover Shares shall vest in full and (ii) subject to the ultimate vesting of such Company Restricted Shares, the holder thereof shall have the right to tender (or to direct the Company to tender on his or her behalf) such Company Restricted Shares then held (net of any Shares withheld to satisfy employment and income tax obligations) into the Offer. To the extent any Shares that were formerly Company Restricted Shares are not so tendered, upon the Effective Time, they shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in accordance with the procedures in Section 3.2(b).

(c) The Surviving Corporation, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Section 3.3 to any holder of Company Stock Options or Company Restricted Shares such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, or local Tax Law, and the person making such deduction or withholding shall make any required filings with and payments to Tax authorities relating to any such deduction or withholding. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Stock Options or Company Restricted Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(d) The Board of Directors of the Company (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall take the actions necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3.

(b) Each of the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation (or other legal entity) in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its assets or properties or conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or be reasonably expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company has made available to Parent complete and correct copies of the organizational or governing documents of the Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries, each as amended to date, and each as so made available is in full force and effect.

(c) The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and compliance with the provisions hereof by the Company will not, (i) result in any violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, require consent under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to the loss of any benefit under any loan, guarantee of indebtedness or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, agreement, Contract, instrument, permit, Company Permit, concession, franchise, right or license binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or result in the creation of any liens, claims, mortgages, encumbrances, pledges, security interests, equities or charges of any kind (each, a “Lien”) upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with or result in any violation of any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws or other equivalent organizational document of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or (iii) assuming that the consents and approvals referred to in Section 4.4(b) are duly obtained, conflict with or violate any applicable Laws, other than, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or be reasonably expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(a) The Company and its Significant Subsidiaries have filed all forms, documents, statements and reports required to be filed by them with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) since January 1, 2007 (the forms, documents, statements and reports filed with the SEC since January 1, 2007, including any amendments thereto, the “Company SEC Documents”).

Except as set forth in Section 4.5(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the Company has not received any written advice or written notification from its independent certified public accountants that it has used any improper accounting practice that would have the effect of not reflecting or incorrectly reflecting in the financial statements or in the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, any properties, assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses in any material respect.

(c) The Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries have established and maintained a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). Such internal controls are, in all material respects, (i) sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of Company financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and (ii) designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries required to be included in reports filed under the Exchange Act, is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others within those entities, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared, and such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act. Since January 1, 2007, the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer have disclosed to the Company’s auditors and the audit committee of the Board (i) all Known significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and

(ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls and the Company has provided to Parent copies of any material written materials relating to each of the foregoing.

(b) (i) The Company Proxy Statement, as supplemented or amended, if applicable, at the time such Company Proxy Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto is first mailed to shareholders of the Company and at the time such shareholders vote on approval of the Merger and at the Effective Time, and (ii) Company Disclosure Documents (other than the Company Proxy Statement), at the time of the filing of such Company Disclosure Documents or any supplement or amendment thereto and at the time of any distribution or dissemination thereof, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) The information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that the Company furnishes to Parent or Merger Sub in writing specifically for use in the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents, at the time of the filing of the Schedule TO, at the time of any distribution or dissemination of the Offer Documents and at the time of the consummation of the Offer, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(a) Subject to Section 6.2(b), (c) and (d), from the date hereof until the earlier of the Board Appointment Date or the Termination Date, the Company agrees that neither it nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall, and that it shall direct its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, Affiliates and other representatives (in each case, acting in their capacity as such (“Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, propose, encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by providing information) any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to, or the making or completion of, an Alternative Proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Proposal, (ii) engage, continue or

participate in any negotiations concerning, or provide or cause to be provided any non-public information or data relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with, or have any discussions (other than to state that they are not permitted to have discussions) with any person relating to, an actual or proposed Alternative Proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Proposal, or otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make or implement an Alternative Proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Proposal, (iii) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, grant any waiver, amendment or release under any standstill or confidentiality agreement or Takeover Statutes, or otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt by any person to make an Alternative Proposal (including providing consent or authorization to make an Alternative Proposal to any officer or employee of the Company or to the Board (or any member thereof) pursuant to any Existing Confidentiality Agreement), (iv) approve, endorse or recommend, or propose to approve, endorse or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement relating to any Alternative Proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Proposal, or (vi) resolve to propose or agree to do any of the foregoing; provided, however, it is understood and agreed that any determination or action by the Board expressly permitted under the terms and conditions of Section 6.2(b), (c) or (d), or Section 8.1(c)(ii), shall not be deemed to be a breach or violation of this Section 6.2(a). Subject to Section 6.2(b), (c) and (d), from and after the date hereof, the Company shall, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, and shall direct each of its Representatives to, immediately cease any solicitations, discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the parties hereto) that has made or indicated an intention to make an Alternative Proposal, in each case that exist as of the date hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.2(a), at any time prior to the earlier of the Acceptance Time or the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company may, in response to an unsolicited Alternative Proposal which did not result from or arise in connection with a knowing or intentional breach of Section 6.2(a) and which the Board determines, in good faith, (i) after consultation with outside legal counsel that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Laws, and (ii) after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, (x) furnish non-public information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the person making such Alternative Proposal and its Representatives pursuant to one or more customary confidentiality agreements with standstill provisions identical in all substantive respects and otherwise not materially less favorable in the aggregate to the Company than the Confidentiality Agreement, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with such person and its Representatives regarding such Alternative Proposal; provided that the Company shall have complied with the terms and conditions of Section 6.2 including this Section 6.2(b) and shall substantially concurrently make available to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that is provided to any person making such Alternative Proposal and that was not previously made available to Parent.

(c) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw (or not continue to make), qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw (or not continue to make), qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, the Recommendation, (ii) adopt,

approve or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, endorse or recommend, any Alternative Proposal, (iii) subject to Section 6.2(d), fail to publicly recommend against any Alternative Proposal (other than an Alternative Proposal described in clause (iv) below for which the Company shall have 10 Business Days) or (y) fail to publicly reaffirm the Recommendation, in each case of (x) and (y) within two (2) Business Days after Parent so requests in writing; provided that Parent may make such request no more than two (2) times, (iv) subject to Section 6.2(d), fail to recommend against any Alternative Proposal subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such Alternative Proposal, (iv) fail to include the Recommendation in the Offer Documents, (v) enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or similar document or Contract relating to any Alternative Proposal (other than any confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with Section 6.2(b)) or (vi) take any other action or make any other public statement that is inconsistent with the Recommendation (any action described in clauses (i) through (vi), an “Adverse Recommendation Change”); provided that the Company may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1(c)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 8.3(a), if, prior to the earlier of the Acceptance Time or the Company Shareholder Approval, the Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors that failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the Board’s exercise of its fiduciary duties, the Board or any committee thereof may make an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Board from (i) disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or making any required disclosure to the Company’s shareholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Board, after consultation with its outside counsel, failure to disclose such information would reasonably be expected to violate its obligations under applicable Law; provided that any such disclosure (other than a “stop-look-and-listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed to be a Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Recommendation within two (2) Business Days following a written request by Parent, or (ii) making any “stop-look-and-listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act.

(e) From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Board Appointment Date or the Termination Date, the Company shall promptly advise Parent orally (and in any event within 48 hours) and subsequently in writing of (x) any Alternative Proposal, (y) any request for non-public information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, other than requests for information not reasonably expected to be related to an Alternative Proposal, and (z) any inquiry or request for discussion or negotiation regarding an Alternative Proposal, including in each case the identity of the person making any such Alternative Proposal or indication or inquiry and the material terms of any such Alternative Proposal or indication or inquiry (including, if applicable, copies of any written requests, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements). The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status and terms (including any material changes to the terms thereof) of any such Alternative Proposal or indication or inquiry (including, if applicable, any revised copies of any written requests,

proposals or offers) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations, including any change in the Company’s intentions as previously stated.

(f) The approval of the Board for purposes of causing any Takeover Statute to be inapplicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreements shall be irrevocable and no Adverse Recommendation Change shall change the approval of the Board for purposes of causing any Takeover Statute to be inapplicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent Parent and/or the Company believes that there has been a breach of the standstill provisions of any Existing Confidentiality Agreement by the counterparty thereto or receives written notice of an anticipated breach of such standstill provisions, the Company shall take all necessary actions to enforce such Existing Confidentiality Agreement.

(g) As used in this Agreement, “Alternative Proposal” shall mean any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons other than Parent or one of its Subsidiaries for (i) a merger, reorganization, consolidation, sale of assets, share exchange, business combination, joint venture, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving an acquisition of the Company (or any Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of the Company whose business constitutes 20% or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (ii) the acquisition in any manner, directly or indirectly, of over 20% of the equity securities (by vote or value) or consolidated total assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case other than the Merger, or (iii) the acquisition (whether by merger, consolidation, equity investment, share exchange, joint venture or otherwise) by any third party, directly or indirectly, of any entity that holds assets representing, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and Subsidiaries of the Company, taken as a whole, (iv) any tender offer or exchange offer, as such terms are defined under the Exchange Act, that, if consummated, would result in any third party beneficially owning 20% or more of the outstanding Shares and any other voting securities of the Company, or (v) any combination of the foregoing.

(h) As used in this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” shall mean any bona fide written Alternative Proposal on terms which the Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, to be more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of Shares than the transactions provided for in this Agreement (after taking into account the expected timing and risk of consummation), taking into account, among other things, all the terms, conditions, impact and all legal, financing and regulatory aspects, shareholder litigation, break up fee and expense reimbursement provisions and other events or circumstances beyond the control of the party invoking the condition of such proposal (in each case taking into account any revisions to this Agreement made or proposed in writing by Parent prior to the time of determination); provided that for purposes of the definition of “Superior Proposal,” the references to “20%” in the definition of Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(i) The Company agrees that in the event any Company Representative acting on behalf of the Company takes any action which, if taken by the Company, would constitute a breach of this Section 6.2, then the Company shall be deemed to be in breach of this Section 6.2 for all purposes of this Agreement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after consummation of the Offer, if required, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC the Company Proxy Statement, and Parent and the Company shall cooperate with each other in connection with the preparation of the Company Proxy Statement. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to have the Company Proxy Statement cleared by the staff of the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s shareholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Company Proxy Statement is cleared by the staff of the SEC. The Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify Parent of the receipt of any oral or written comments from the staff of the SEC relating to the Company Proxy Statement. The Company shall cooperate and provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on (i) the draft of the Company Proxy Statement (including each amendment or supplement thereto) and (ii) all written responses to requests for additional information by and replies to written comments of the staff of the SEC, prior to filing of the Company Proxy Statement with or sending such to the SEC, and the Company will provide to Parent copies of all such filings made and correspondence with the SEC or its staff with respect thereto. Concurrently with the preparation and filing of the Company Proxy Statement, the Parties shall jointly prepare and file with the SEC the Schedule 13E-3 with respect to the Merger. The Parties shall cooperate and consult with each other in preparation of the Schedule 13E-3, including, without limitation, furnishing to the others the information relating to it required by the Exchange Act to be set forth in the Schedule 13E-3. Each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve all SEC comments with respect to the Schedule 13E-3 and any other required filings as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof. Each Party agrees to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 13E-3 which shall have become false or misleading. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information should be discovered by any party hereto which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Company Proxy Statement or Schedule 13E-3 so that the Company Proxy Statement or Schedule 13E-3 would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and, to the extent required by applicable Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by the Company with the SEC and disseminated by the Company to the shareholders of the Company; provided, however, that prior to such filing, the Company and Parent as the case may be, shall consult with the other Party with respect to such amendment or supplement and shall afford the other Party and their Representatives reasonable opportunity to comment thereon.

(b) If, at any time following the Acceptance Time, Parent, Merger Sub and any other Subsidiary of Parent shall collectively own at least 80% of the outstanding Shares, the parties shall take all necessary and appropriate action to cause the Merger to be effected as soon as practicable without a meeting of shareholders of the Company in accordance with Section 607-1104 of Florida Law (such actions, the “Requisite Short-Form Merger”).

(c) Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, if a shareholder vote is required for consummation of the Merger, the Company shall take all action necessary in

accordance with the FBCA and the Articles of Incorporation and the by-laws of the Company (the “By-laws”) to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after consummation of the Offer to consider and vote upon the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (such meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Company Meeting”). At the Company Meeting, (i) Parent and its Subsidiaries will vote all Shares owned by them or as to which they have been granted a proxy in favor of approval and adoption of this Agreement, and (ii) Parent and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) the Company will be entitled to adjourn or postpone the Company Shareholders Meeting one (1) time (and will postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting one (1) time at the written request of Parent), provided that any such adjournment or postponement shall be no longer than 30 days after the originally scheduled meeting date.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions, to file, or cause to be filed, all documents and to do, or to cause to be done, and to assist and to cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, as promptly as practicable, the Offer and Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances, approvals, and expirations or terminations of waiting periods, including the Company Approvals and the Parent Approvals, from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval, clearance, or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entity, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iii) the giving of notice, if required, under real property leases, (iv) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Offer or the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and (v) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be required to pay prior to the Board Appointment Date any fee, penalties or other consideration to any third party to obtain any consent or approval required for the consummation of the Offer or the Merger. No party hereto shall take any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impede the receipt of any necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances, approvals, and expirations or terminations of waiting periods, including the Company Approvals and the Parent Approvals, from Governmental Entities.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided and without limiting the foregoing, the Company and Parent shall (i) promptly, but in no event later than 5:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Savings time on July 28, 2009, file any and all Notification and Report Forms required under the HSR Act with respect to the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and use reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in (x) determining whether any filings are required to be made with, or consents,

Subject to applicable legal limitations and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, the Company and Parent shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other communications received by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, from any third party and/or any Governmental Entity with respect to such Merger or transactions. The Company and Parent shall permit counsel for the other party reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other party in connection with, any proposed written communication to any Governmental Entity.

Parent and the Company agree that the press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint release of Parent and the Company.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees, as the case may be, of the Company or its Subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws or other organization documents or in any agreement shall survive the Offer or the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect any and all exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s and any of its Subsidiaries’ articles of incorporation and by-laws or similar organization documents in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time or in any indemnification agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with any of their respective current or former directors, officers or employees in effect as of the date hereof, and shall not for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Effective Time were current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim.

(b) From and after the Board Appointment Date, each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and advance funds in respect of each of the foregoing) each current and former director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, together with such person’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”) against any costs or expenses (including advancing reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Law), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (an “Action”), arising out of, relating to or in connection with any Action or omission occurring or alleged to have occurred whether before or after the Board Appointment Date in connection with such Indemnified Party serving as an officer, director, employee or other fiduciary of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any entity if such service was at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) For a period of six (6) years from the Board Appointment Date, Parent shall either cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries or provide substitute policies or purchase or cause the Surviving Corporation to purchase a “tail policy,” in either case of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous in the aggregate than such policy with respect to matters arising on or before the Board Appointment Date; provided, however, that after the Board Appointment Date, Parent shall not be required to pay with respect to such insurance policies in respect of any one policy year annual premiums in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date hereof in respect of the coverage required to be obtained pursuant hereto, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as reasonably practicable for such amount; provided, further, that if the Surviving Corporation is unable to obtain the insurance otherwise required by this Section 6.7(c), it shall purchase the maximum amount of coverage that can be obtained for 250% of such last annual premium, in respect of each policy year within such period. At the Company’s option, the Company may purchase prior to the Board Appointment Date, a six-year prepaid “tail policy” on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent benefits as the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to matters arising on or before the Board Appointment Date, covering without limitation the transactions contemplated hereby. If such tail prepaid policy has been obtained by the Company prior to the Board Appointment Date, Parent shall cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation.

(d) The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Indemnified Party may have under the Articles of Incorporation, the By-laws or other similar organization documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation, any other indemnification agreement or arrangement, the FBCA or otherwise (it being agreed that no such document may be amended after the Board Appointment Date in any manner that adversely affects the rights of any Indemnified Person). The provisions of this Section 6.7 shall survive the consummation of the Offer or the Merger and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that may be to the contrary, expressly are

intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their heirs and legal representatives.

(e) In the event Parent, the Surviving Corporation 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 Corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers 50% or more of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, 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 of its Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.7 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

Section 6.8 Access; Confidentiality. The Company shall afford to Parent, and to Parent’s Representatives, access during normal business hours and on reasonable notice during the Interim Period to all of its and its Subsidiaries’ properties, Contracts, books and records and to those officers, employees and agents of the Company to whom Parent reasonably requests access, and, during such period, the Company shall furnish, as promptly as practicable, to Parent all information concerning its and its Subsidiaries’ business, properties, Contracts, assets, liabilities, personnel and financial information and other aspects of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request. Except for disclosures expressly permitted by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, Parent shall hold, and shall cause its Representatives to hold, all information received from the Company or its Representatives, directly or indirectly, in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be required by this Section 6.8 to provide any other party or such party’s representatives with any information that such party reasonably believes it may not provide to any other party by reason of applicable Law which constitutes information protected by attorney/client privilege; provided that the Company shall take reasonable steps to permit inspection of or to disclose non-privileged information on a basis that does not compromise such privilege. For purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement, the execution of this Agreement by the Company shall constitute written consent by the Company to Parent, Merger, Sub and their Representatives to take all actions permitted or contemplated by this Agreement including, but not limited to, Section 8.1(c)(ii).

Section 6.9 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (i) any notice or other communication received by such party from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Offer or Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or from any person alleging that the consent of such person is or may be required in connection with the Offer or the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such party to obtain such consent could be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, (ii) any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced or, to such party’s Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or

involving or otherwise affecting such party or any of its Subsidiaries which relate to the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, or (iii) the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to cause any condition to the obligations of any Party to effect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied. The parties agree and acknowledge that the Company’s compliance or failure of compliance with this Section 6.9 shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the condition referred to in Paragraph D of Annex A shall have been satisfied.

Section 6.10 Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall be permitted to take such steps as may be reasonably necessary or advisable hereto to cause dispositions of Company equity securities (including derivative securities) pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or officer of the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.11 Control of Operations. Without in any way limiting any party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, the parties understand and agree that (i) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent or Merger Sub, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s operations prior to the Board Appointment Date, and (ii) prior to the Board Appointment Date, the Company shall exercise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its operations.

Section 6.12 Certain Transfer Taxes. Any liability arising out of any real estate transfer Tax with respect to interests in real property owned directly or indirectly by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Merger, if applicable and due with respect to the Offer or Merger, shall be borne by the Surviving Corporation or Parent and expressly shall not be a liability of shareholders of the Company.

Section 6.14 Shareholder Litigation. The Company shall control, and the Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense of any litigation brought by shareholders of the Company against the Company and/or its directors relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall not compromise, settle, come to an arrangement regarding or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding any Transaction Litigation, or consent to the same without the prior written consent of Parent.

Section 6.15 Stock Exchange De-listing. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of the Nasdaq to cause the delisting of the Company of the Shares from the Nasdaq as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and the deregistration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

Section 6.16 Rule 14d-10(d) Matters. Prior to the Acceptance Time and to the extent permitted by Law, the Company (acting through its Board, compensation committee or its independent directors, to the extent required) will take all such steps as may be required to cause each agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by the Company or its Subsidiaries on or after the date hereof with any of the Covered Securityholders pursuant to which compensation is paid to such officer, director or employee to be approved as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act and to otherwise satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor set forth in Rule 14d-10(d) under the Exchange Act.

On the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Parent an affidavit, dated as of the Closing Date, signed under penalty of perjury, and in form and substance required under the Treasury Regulations issued pursuant to Section 1445(f) and Section 897 of the Code, so that Parent is exempt from withholding any portion of the aggregate consideration with respect to the Merger under Section 1445 of the Code.

Section 7.2 Frustration of Closing Conditions. Neither the Company nor Parent may rely, either as a basis for not consummating the Merger or terminating this Agreement and abandoning the Merger, on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.1, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused in any material respect by such party’s breach of any provision of this Agreement or failure to use such efforts to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby as required by Section 6.4.

Section 8.1 Termination or Abandonment. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated and the Offer and the Merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after

any approval of the matters presented in connection with the Merger by the shareholders of the Company:

(i) the Offer has not been consummated by the date that is nine months from the date hereof (the “Outside Date”); provided; however, that no party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (i) if such party’s failure to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement shall have proximately caused the Offer not to have been consummated on or before said date;

(ii) if any court of competent jurisdiction shall have issued or entered an injunction or similar legal restraint or order permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Offer or the Merger and such injunction, legal restraint or order shall have become final and non-appealable, provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall have used such efforts as may be required by Section 6.4 to prevent, oppose and remove such injunction; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in the imposition of any such injunction or similar legal restraint or the failure of such injunction or similar legal restraint to be resisted, resolved or lifted, as applicable; or

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, then subject to the payment of fees and expenses to the extent required by Section 8.3 this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, except that the Confidentiality Agreement and the provisions of Sections 8.3, 9.2, 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6 will survive the termination hereof; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for willful breach of this Agreement, subject only, with respect to any such liabilities of Parent Group, to Section 8.3(c)(iii) and 8.3(f) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any party be liable for punitive damages.

(i) (A) a bona fide Alternative Proposal shall have been made known to the Company, the Board, or senior management of the Company, or shall have been made directly to the shareholders of the Company or any person shall have publicly announced a bona fide intention (not subsequently withdrawn) to make an Alternative Proposal and (B) following the occurrence of an event described in the preceding clause (A), this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent

pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i) at a time when Parent would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i) or by Parent pursuant to 8.1(d)(ii) or 8.1(d)(v) and (B) the Company enters into a letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other definitive agreement with respect to an Alternative Proposal, or consummates an Alternative Proposal, within twelve (12) months of the date this Agreement is terminated (provided that for purposes of this Section 8.3(a)(i), the references to “20%” in the definition of Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%”); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(iii) or Section 8.1(d)(iv) .

then in any such event under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 8.3(a), the Company shall pay to Parent or an Affiliate of Parent designated in writing by Parent (“Payee”) a termination fee of $30,000,000 in cash (the “Termination Fee”), it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(b) Payment of Company Termination Fee. Any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 8.3(a) shall be made to Payee on the date an Alternative Proposal is consummated or any such letter is exercised or agreement is entered into (and in any event not later than two Business Days after delivery to the Company of notice of demand for payment) less the amount of any Parent Expenses previously paid to Parent pursuant to Section 8.3(d), if any; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 8.3(a) shall be made to Payee concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, the termination of this Agreement; any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 8.3(a) shall be made to Payee promptly following termination of this Agreement (and in any event not later than two Business Days after delivery to the Company of notice of demand for payment); and in each case such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be designated by Parent.

(iii) If Parent becomes obligated to pay the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.3(c), the Company agrees that its right to receive the Parent Termination Fee from Parent shall be its sole and exclusive remedy against Parent and the Parent Group and, upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee,

neither Parent nor any member of the Parent Group shall have any liability or obligation to the Company relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Limited Guarantee, the Second Equity Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) Expense Reimbursement. In the event this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(v) under circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is not then payable pursuant to Section 8.3(a), then the Company shall, following receipt of an invoice therefor, promptly (in any event within two (2) Business Days) pay all of Parent’s reasonably documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) actually incurred by Parent and its Affiliates on or prior to the termination of this Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Parent Expenses”), which amount shall in no event exceed $3,000,000 in the aggregate, by wire transfer of same day funds to one or more accounts designated by Parent; provided, that the existence of circumstances which could require the Company Termination Fee to become subsequently payable by the Company pursuant to Section 8.3(b) shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to pay the Parent Expenses pursuant to this Section 8.3(d); provided, further, that the payment by the Company of Parent Expenses pursuant to this Section 8.3(d) shall not relieve the Company of any subsequent obligation to pay the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(b) except to the extent indicated in Section 8.3(b) .

(e) Acknowledgement. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee or a Parent Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(c) are not a penalty, but rather are liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Sub or the Company, as the case may be, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision; and (iii) without the agreements contained in this Section 8.3, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(d) or if Parent fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to Section 8.3(c) and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent or the Company, as the case may be, commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the amount set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(d) or any portion thereof, or a judgment against Parent for the amount set forth in Section 8.3(c) or any portion thereof, the Company shall pay to Parent, or Parent shall pay to the Company, as the case may be, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the prevailing Party and its Affiliates in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of such amount or portion thereof at the prime rate of Citibank N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum aggregate liability of the Parent Group for damages or otherwise shall be limited to $570,800,000 (the “Parent Liability Cap”). In no event shall the Company or its Affiliates seek or permit to be sought on behalf of the Company any damages or any other recovery, judgment or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, from any member of the Parent Group other than Parent in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the parties agree that subject to the terms and conditions of the Second Equity Commitment Letter and all of the terms, conditions and limitations of the Limited Guarantee, the Company can cause each of the Funds to provide funds to Parent to the extent provided in the Second Equity Commitment Letter which shall in no event exceed the Parent Liability Cap. The Company acknowledges and agrees that it has no right of recovery against, and no personal liability shall attach to, in each case with respect to damages, any member of the Parent Group (other than Parent to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Limited Guarantee), through Parent or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of Parent against the Funds or any other member of the Parent Group, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law, or otherwise, except for its rights to cause each of the Funds (but not any other member of the Parent Group (including any general partner or managing member)) to fund to Parent its commitment to the extent provided in the Second Equity Commitment Letter, subject to the terms and conditions thereof and all of the terms, conditions and limitations of the Limited Guarantee including the Parent Liability Cap and the other limitations described therein. Recourse against the Funds under the Second Equity Commitment Letter, subject to the amount of the Parent Liability Cap and all of the terms, conditions and limitations of the Limited Guarantee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and its Affiliates against the Funds and any other member of the Parent Group (other than Parent to the extent provided in this Agreement) in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that both Parent and Merger Sub are newly-formed companies and do not have any material assets except in connection with this Agreement and the Equity Commitment Letters. The Company specifically acknowledges the separate corporate existence of each of Parent and Merger Sub. The liabilities of the Parent Group referred to in this paragraph shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs, and may include, subject to the Parent Liability Cap and to the extent proven, the benefit of the bargain lost by the Company’s shareholders (taking into consideration relevant matters, including other combination opportunities and the time value of money), which shall be deemed in such event to be damages of the Company.

(ii) The provisions of this Section 8.3(f) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Company and each member of the Parent Group.

Section 9.1 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the occurrence of the Merger.

Section 9.2 Expenses. Whether or not the Offer and Merger are consummated, and except as set forth in Section 8.3, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Offer and Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring or required to incur such expenses, except expenses incurred in connection with the printing, filing and mailing of the Company Proxy Statement (including applicable SEC filing fees) and all fees paid in respect of any HSR Act or other regulatory filing shall be borne one-half by the Company and one-half by Parent.

Section 9.3 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in two or more consecutive counterparts (including by facsimile or email pdf format), each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered (by telecopy, email or otherwise) to the other parties.

Section 9.4 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether at Law, in contract or in tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Limited Guarantee or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or thereof, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware except matters relating to the fiduciary duties of the Board and internal corporate affairs and the Company shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida.

Section 9.5 Specific Performance; Jurisdiction; Enforcement. (a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the parties hereto in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and the Second Equity Commitment Letter by the other (as applicable) and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) and this right shall include the right of the Company to cause Parent and Merger Sub to fully enforce the terms of the Second Equity Commitment Letter against the Funds to the fullest extent permissible pursuant to the Second Equity Commitment Letter and applicable Laws and to thereafter cause the Offer, the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions thereto set forth in this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby

waives (i) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. If any party brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (x) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days or (y) such other time period established by the Delaware court presiding over such Action.

(i) The Company hereby agrees that, except as provided in Section 9.5(b)(ii) below, specific performance shall be its sole and exclusive remedy (but for the avoidance of doubt, the Company may plead or otherwise seek monetary damages in the alternative) with respect to breaches by Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, except as provided in Section 9.5(b)(ii) below, that it may not seek or accept any other form of relief that may be available for breach under this Agreement, the Second Equity Commitment Letter or the Limited Guarantee or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including monetary damages).

(ii) If a court of competent jurisdiction has declined to specifically enforce the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger pursuant to a claim for specific performance brought against Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 9.5 the Company may pursue any other remedy available to it at law or in equity, including monetary damages. If such a court has granted an award of damages for such alleged breach against Parent, the Company may enforce such award and accept damages for such alleged breach (which Parent agrees shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs, and may include, subject to the Parent Liability Cap and to the extent proven, the benefit of the bargain lost by the Company’s shareholders (taking into consideration relevant matters, including other combination opportunities and the time value of money)) only if, within two (2) weeks following such award, Parent and Merger Sub have not consummated the Offer and the Merger. In addition, the Company agrees to cause any legal action or proceeding still pending to be dismissed with prejudice at such time as Parent and Merger Sub consummate the Offer and the Merger.

(c) In addition, each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee and the rights and obligations arising hereunder and thereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee and the rights and obligations arising hereunder or thereunder brought by the other party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). Each of the parties hereto hereby

irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letters in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 9.5, (b) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii) this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the service of process out of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered mail, postage prepaid, to it its address set forth in Section 9.7 of this Agreement, such service of process to be effective upon acknowledgment of receipt of such registered mail. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

Section 9.6 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE EQUITY COMMITMENT LETTERS AND THE LIMITED GUARANTEE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 9.7 Notices. Any notice required to be given hereunder shall be sufficient if in writing, and sent by facsimile transmission (provided that any notice received by facsimile transmission or otherwise at the addressee’s location on any Business Day after 5:00 p.m. (addressee’s local time) shall be deemed to have been received at 9:00 a.m. (addressee’s local time) on the next Business Day), by reliable overnight delivery service (with proof of service), hand delivery or certified or registered mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid), addressed as follows:

or to such other address as any party shall specify by written notice so given, and such notice shall be deemed to have been delivered as of the date so telecommunicated, personally delivered or mailed. Any party to this Agreement may notify any other party of any changes to the address or any of the other details specified in this Section 9.7; provided, however, that such notification shall only be effective on the date specified in such notice or five (5) Business Days after the notice is given, whichever is later. Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address or facsimile of which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice as of the date of such rejection, refusal or inability to deliver.

Section 9.8 Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Merger Sub may assign, in its sole discretion, any of or all of its rights, interest and obligations under this Agreement to Parent or to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent and to any parties providing debt financing to the Surviving Corporation for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning as collateral in respect of such debt financing, but no such assignment shall relieve Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of

the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Parent shall cause Merger Sub, and any assignee thereof, to perform its obligations under this Agreement and shall be responsible for any failure of Merger Sub or such assignee to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement.

Section 9.9 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement; Benefit. This Agreement (including the exhibits and letters hereto), the Equity Commitment Letters, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Limited Guarantee and the Support Agreements constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement is not intended to grant and does not grant standing to any person other than the parties except, following the Effective Time, for the provisions of Section 6.7. The representations and warranties set forth in Articles 4 and 5 and the covenants set forth in Section 6.1 have been made solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and (a) may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate; (b) have been qualified by reference to the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter, each of which contains certain disclosures that are not reflected in the text of this Agreement; and (c) may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by shareholders of, or other investors in, the Company.

Section 9.11 Amendments; Waivers. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company, Parent and Merger Sub, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that after receipt of Company Shareholder Approval (if any), if any such amendment or waiver shall by applicable Law or in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Global Select Market require further approval of the shareholders of the Company, the effectiveness of such amendment or waiver shall be subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company or Parent in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

Section 9.12 Headings. Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever. The table of contents to this Agreement is for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
