The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, in accordance with Section 251 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), at the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), which shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware. At the Effective Time, the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall thereupon cease and the Merger will have the effects specified in the DGCL. As a result of the Merger, the Company will thereafter be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be the name of the Company.

Effective Time of the Merger. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger of the Company and Merger Subsidiary, or other appropriate documents, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Merger”) in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL on or before the Closing Date. The Merger shall become effective at the time designated by the Parties in the Certificate of Merger as the effective time of the Merger, or if no such time has been designated, upon filing (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Articles 6 and 7 and the termination rights set forth in Article 8, the closing (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Dorsey & Whitney LLP, 50 South Sixth Street, Suite 1500, Minneapolis, MN 55402, at 10:00 a.m. on the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of the conditions (excluding conditions that, by their nature, cannot be satisfied until the Closing Date) set forth in Articles 6 and 7, unless this Agreement has been theretofore terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another place, time or date is agreed to by the Parties (the date of the Closing, the “Closing Date”).

Certificate of Incorporation. In connection with the Merger and at the Effective Time, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company shall be amended and restated to read substantially in the form of the Certificate of Incorporation of Merger Subsidiary until duly amended in accordance with the terms thereof and of the DGCL.

Bylaws. In connection with the Merger and at the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Company shall be amended and restated to read substantially in the form of the bylaws of Merger Subsidiary until duly amended in accordance with the terms thereof and of the DGCL.

Parent Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. In connection with the Merger and at the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of Parent shall be amended and restated in a form mutually agreed by Parent and the Company.

Directors and Officers. (i) The persons who shall serve as the directors of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time shall be (A) Gregory Freitag, (B) John Harper and (C) Karen Zaderej, and (ii) the persons who shall serve as the officers of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. In furtherance thereof, any persons serving as a director or officer of Merger Subsidiary prior to the Effective Time and not identified in the preceding sentence shall resign effective as of the Effective Time.

Consideration for the Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the DGCL, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company, Merger Subsidiary or any Stockholder:

Treasury Stock. All shares of Company Capital Stock that are held by the Company as treasury stock or that are owned by the Company, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than those held in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of third parties) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no Parent Common Stock or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

Company Capital Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Dissenting Shares) shall, at the Effective Time, be canceled and converted into, and become a right to receive, such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Closing Ratio (the aggregate number of such shares being referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration”), rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth of a share after giving effect to the conversion of all shares of Company Capital Stock into such consideration deliverable upon surrender of the certificate representing such share as provided in Section 2.3 below.

Company Stock Options and Company Warrants.

At the Effective Time, each Company Stock Option granted under the Company Stock Option Plan, shall be assumed by Parent in a transaction described in Section 424(a) of the Code. Each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) each Company Stock Option will be exercisable for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Closing Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Closing Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, deliver to the holders of Company Stock Options, notices describing the conversion of such Company Stock Options (as modified by this Section 2.1(c)), and the agreements evidencing the Company Stock Options shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (as modified by this Section 2.1(c)). Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall reserve for issuance the number of shares of Parent Common Stock necessary to satisfy Parent’s obligations under this Section 2.1(c). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall file a registration statement or statements on Form S-8 or Form S-3 (or any successor form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to Company Stock Options assumed by Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any acquisitions of Parent equity securities (including derivative securities with respect to any Parent Securities) and dispositions of Company Securities (including derivative securities with respect to any Company Securities) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is anticipated to be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, with respect to Parent or who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause each Company Warrant exercisable for Company Capital Stock that is outstanding as of the date hereof and as of the Effective Time to be terminated, without any further consideration payable in respect thereof, and have no further force and effect.

Capital Stock of Merger Subsidiary. Each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Merger Subsidiary outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and converted into and become one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent (if at all) that holders of Company Capital Stock are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, shares of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has properly exercised and perfected his, her or its demand for appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but the holders of Dissenting Shares will be entitled to receive only such rights as will be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall effectively withdraw or lose his, her or its rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder’s shares of Company Capital Stock will thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, and such shares will not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company will give Parent (a) prompt notice of any notices or demands for appraisal or payment for shares of Company Capital Stock received by the Company prior to the Closing and (b) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands or notices. Prior to the Closing, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by a Governmental Order, make any payment with respect to, or settle, offer to settle or otherwise negotiate any demands.

Exchange Procedures.

At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to serve as the exchange agent hereunder (the “Exchange Agent”). Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Dissenting Shares), at the Effective Time, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Merger Consideration, (such shares being hereafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and an agreement among Parent, the Company and the Exchange Agent, in a form reasonably acceptable to the parties thereto (the “Exchange Agreement”). In addition, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(g) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.5. The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the shares of Parent Common Stock contemplated to be paid pursuant to Section 2.1 out of the Exchange Fund. Except as contemplated by Section 2.3(e), the Exchange Fund must not be used for any other purpose. Parent shall pay the fees and expenses of the Exchange Agent, and Parent will indemnify the Exchange Agent against actions taken by the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the Exchange Agreement, other than for acts or omissions which constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence.

As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Company Certificate or Company Certificates (to the extent such certificates have not already been submitted to the Exchange Agent) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)) and Dissenting Shares of Company Capital Stock (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which will be in such form as the Company and Parent may reasonably agree and will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Certificates will pass, only upon proper delivery of the Company Certificates to the Exchange Agent), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Certificates in exchange for the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of Company Capital Stock previously represented by such Company Certificates will have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.

Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Company Certificate for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Company Certificate will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration for each share of Company Capital Stock formerly represented by such Company Certificate, (ii) any dividends and other distributions payable in accordance with Section 2.3(g) and (iii) the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.5, to be distributed within five days of the Closing Date, after giving effect to any required tax withholding and without interest, and the Company Certificate so surrendered will immediately be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Capital Stock prior to the Effective Time which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, (i) the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, (ii) any dividends and other distributions payable in accordance with Section 2.3(g) and (iii) the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.5, may be issued to a transferee if the Company Certificate representing such shares of Company Capital Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.3, each Company Certificate will be deemed at all times after the Effective Time for all purposes to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender (i) the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Company Capital Stock formerly represented thereby, (ii) any dividends and other distributions payable in accordance with Section 2.3(g) and (iii) the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.5.

Following the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates are presented to Parent or the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they will be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section 2.3. From and after the Effective Time, holders of Company Certificates will cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Surviving Corporation, except as provided by Applicable Law.

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock one year after the Effective Time will be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holders of shares of Company Capital Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Article 2 must thereafter look only, as general creditors, to Parent for the Merger Consideration, without interest. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Capital Stock will, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto immediately prior to the date on which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority.

Notwithstanding Section 2.1, none of the Exchange Agent, Parent, the Company, Merger Subsidiary or the Surviving Corporation will be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock for any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Common Stock and payable to the holders of record thereof shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Company Certificate in accordance with this Article 2. After the surrender of a Company Certificate in accordance with this Article 2, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock represented by such Company Certificate. The Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of Company Certificates formerly representing Shares subject to and in accordance with the terms of Section 2.3(c).

No Further Rights in Company. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued, any dividends or other distributions paid pursuant to Section 2.3(g), and all cash paid for fractional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.5, to the Stockholders upon conversion of shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms of this Article 2 shall be deemed to have been issued or paid in full satisfaction of all obligations of Parent and the Company pertaining to the shares of Company Capital Stock.

No Fractional Shares of Parent Common Stock. No certificates or scrip or shares of Parent Common Stock representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock or book-entry credit of the same shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Capital Stock and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to have any rights of a stockholder of Parent or a holder of shares of Parent Common Stock. In lieu of any such fractional share, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay each holder of Company Capital Stock that would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock upon surrender of Company Capital Stock (determined after taking into account all shares of Company Capital Stock delivered by such holder), upon such surrender, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to the product of (i) the fractional share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled and (ii) the Parent Closing Share Price. The Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of Company Certificates formerly representing Shares subject to and in accordance with the terms of Section 2.3(c).

Lost Certificates. If any Company Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Certificate, Parent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to the Company Capital Stock formerly represented thereby (including any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(g) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.5).

Withholding Rights. Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any former holder of shares of Company Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of U.S. state or local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Authority by Parent, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent.

Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Surviving Corporation, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Surviving Corporation, any other actions and things necessary to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

Corporate Organization and Power. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and to own, lease and operate the assets and properties of the Company as now owned, leased and operated. The Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the character or location of its properties and assets owned, leased or operated by the Company or the nature of the business conducted by the Company requires such qualification or licensing, except where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing in such other jurisdiction would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

Certificate of Incorporation of Company; No Subsidiaries. The Company has heretofore made available to Parent complete and accurate copies of its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as currently in effect. The Company does not, directly or indirectly, own or control any capital, equity, partnership, participation or other ownership interest in any corporation, partnership, joint venture or other business association or entity.

The term “Plan” means every plan, fund, Contract, program and arrangement (formal or informal, whether written or not) that the Company or any other ERISA Affiliate sponsors, maintains or contributes to, is required to contribute to, or has or could reasonably be expected to have any liability of any nature with respect to, whether known or unknown, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, for the benefit of present or former employees of the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates (the “Employees”) including, without limitation, those intended to provide: (i) medical, surgical, health care, hospitalization, dental, vision, life insurance, death, disability, legal services, severance, sickness, accident or other welfare benefits (whether or not defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), (ii) pension, profit sharing, stock bonus, retirement, supplemental retirement or deferred compensation benefits (whether or not tax qualified and whether or not defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA), (iii) bonus, incentive compensation, option, stock appreciation right, phantom stock or stock purchase benefits or (iv) salary continuation, paid time off, supplemental unemployment, current or deferred compensation (other than current salary or wages paid in the form of cash), termination pay, vacation or holiday benefits (whether or not defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA). “ERISA” means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. “ERISA Affiliates” means each Subsidiary of the Company and any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) that is part of the same controlled group under, common control with, or part of an affiliated service group that includes the Company within the meaning of Code Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o).

Section 3.23(b) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth each ERISA Affiliate and Plan by name.

There are no Plans subject to Title IV of ERISA or Code Section 412 and neither he Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever maintained a Plan subject to Title IV or ERISA or Code Section 412.

No employer other than the Company or an ERISA Affiliate is permitted to participate or participates in the Plans. No leased employees (as defined in Section 414(n) of the Code) or independent contractors are eligible for, or participate in, any Plan.

Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any liability resulting from past membership in a Code Section 414 controlled group of corporations that would result in a Material Adverse Affect to the Company. No Plan is a multiple employer plan or multiemployer plan under Code Section 413(c) or 414(f), and none of the Company or any other ERISA Affiliate has ever contributed to a “multiemployer plan” (as such term is defined in Sections 3(37) or 4001(a)(3) of ERISA).

There are no Plans which promise or provide health, life or other welfare benefits to retirees or former employees of the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates, or which provide severance benefits to Employees, except as otherwise required by Code Section 4980B or comparable state statute or other law which provides for continuing health care coverage.

No Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received or committed to receive a transfer of assets and/or liabilities or spin-off from another plan, except transfers which qualify as transfers from eligible rollover distributions within the meaning of Code Section 402(c)(4).

With respect to all Plans, to the extent that the following documents exist, the Company has made available to Buyer true and complete copies of: (i) the most recent determination letter, if any, received by the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates from the IRS, (ii) all pending applications for rulings, determinations, opinions, no action letters and the like filed with any governmental agency (including the DOL and the IRS), (iii) the Annual Report/Return (Form Series 5500) with financial statements, if any, and attachments for the three most recent plan years, (iv) Plan documents, summary plan descriptions, trust agreements, insurance Contracts, service agreements and all related Contracts and documents (including any employee summaries and material employee communications) and (v) all closing letters, audit finding letters, revenue agent findings and similar documents issued by a Governmental Authority.

Each Plan has at all times been operated in material compliance with ERISA, the Code, any other applicable law (including all reporting and disclosure requirements thereby) and the terms of such Plan. With respect to each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) and/or 4975(e)(7) of the Code, each such Plan has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified, and each trust forming a part thereof has been determined by the IRS to be exempt from Tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. To the knowledge of the Company, no reason exists which would cause such qualified status to be revoked. To the knowledge of the Company, no non-exempt prohibited transactions under Section 406 or 407 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code have occurred with respect to any Plan that would reasonably be expected to subject such Plan or the Company or applicable ERISA Affiliate to any material penalty under the Code or ERISA.

No state of facts or conditions exist which could reasonably be expected to subject the Company and/or any ERISA Affiliate to any material liability (other than routine claims for benefits) with respect to any Plan or voluntary employees’ beneficiary association within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code under applicable Law.

All material contributions, premiums, fees or charges due and owing to or in respect of any Plan for periods on or before the Closing have been or will be paid in full by the Company and its ERISA Affiliates prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of such Plan and all applicable laws, and no material Taxes are owing on the part of the Company as a result of any Plan.

The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not committed to make any material increase in contributions or benefits under any Plan that would become effective either on or after the Closing Date.

No Plan is currently under audit or examination by the IRS or the DOL. There are no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened, audits, investigations, claims, suits, grievances or other proceedings.

The events contemplated in this Agreement will not trigger, or entitle any current or former employee of the Company to, severance, termination, change in control payments or accelerated vesting under any Plan, and will not result in any material Tax or other liability payable by any Plan or, with respect to any Plan, by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate.

Benefits provided to participants under each Plan (other than a tax qualified plan under Code Section 401(a) or a plan established under Code Section 408(p)) are provided exclusively from insurance policies or the general assets of the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates.

The Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates can terminate each Plan without material liability to the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates. No action or omission of the Company, any ERISA Affiliate or any director, officer, employee, or agent thereof in any way restricts, impairs or prohibits Parent, the Company, any ERISA Affiliate or any successor from amending, merging, or terminating any Plan in accordance with the express terms of any such Plan and applicable law.

To the knowledge of the Company, there are no facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to, directly or indirectly, subject the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to any (i) excise Tax or other liability under Chapters 43, 46 or 47 of Subtitle D of the Code, (ii) penalty Tax or other liability under Chapter 68 of Subtitle F of the Code or (iii) civil penalty, damages or other liabilities arising under Section 502 of ERISA.

None of the Company or its ERISA Affiliates have established or contributed to, is required to contribute to or has or could reasonably be expected to have any liability of any nature, whether known or unknown, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, with respect to any “voluntary employees’ beneficiary association” within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code, “welfare benefit fund” within the meaning of Section 419 of the Code, “qualified asset account” within the meaning of Section 419A of the Code, or “multiple employer welfare arrangement” within the meaning of Section 3(40) of ERISA.

All Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans (as defined in Code Section 409A(d)(1)) of the Company are in material compliance with Code Section 409A.

The exercise price of each Company Stock Option granted under the Company Stock Option Plan is not less than the fair market value, determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, of a Share of the underlying Company Common Stock on the date such Company Stock Option was granted. No Company Stock Option granted under the Company Stock Option Plan provides for a deferral of compensation under Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(5).

Labor and Employment Matters.

To the Company’s knowledge, no executive employee of the Company and no group of employees of the Company or any Subsidiary has any plans to terminate his, her or their employment.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any labor relations problem pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened and its labor relations are satisfactory. There are no material workers’ compensation claims pending against the Company or any Subsidiary or, to the Company’s knowledge, any facts that would give rise to such a claim. There has been no lay-off of employees or work reduction program undertaken by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in the past two years, and no such program has been adopted by the Company or any Subsidiary or publicly announced. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has paid in full to all employees all material wages, salaries, bonuses and commissions due and payable to such employees and has fully reserved in its books of account all amounts for wages, salaries, bonuses and commissions due but not yet payable to such employees.

With respect to each Work Permit, all of the information that the Company or any Subsidiary provided to the Department of Labor and the Immigration and Naturalization Service or the Department of Homeland Security (collectively, the “Department”) in the application for such Work Permit was true and complete in all material respects. The Company or a Subsidiary received the appropriate notice of approval from the Department with respect to each such Work Permit, and all such employees are eligible to work in the United States.

Neither Parent nor any Parent ERISA Affiliate has any liability resulting from past membership in a Code Section 414 controlled group of corporations that would result in a Material Adverse Affect. No Parent Plan is a multiple employer plan or multiemployer plan under Code Section 413(c) or 414(f), and none of Parent or any Parent ERISA Affiliate has ever contributed to a “multiemployer plan” (as such term is defined in Sections 3(37) or 4001(a)(3) of ERISA).

No Parent Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received or committed to receive a transfer of assets and/or liabilities or spin-off from another plan, except transfers which qualify as transfers from eligible rollover distributions within the meaning of Code Section 402(c)(4).

With respect to all Parent Plans, to the extent that the following documents exist, Parent has made available to the Company true and complete copies of: (i) the most recent determination letter, if any, received by Parent and/or its Parent ERISA Affiliates from the IRS, (ii) all pending applications for rulings, determinations, opinions, no action letters and the like filed with any governmental agency (including the DOL and the IRS), (iii) the Annual Report/Return (Form Series 5500) with financial statements, if any, and attachments for the three most recent plan years, (iv) Parent Plan documents, summary plan descriptions, trust agreements, insurance Contracts, service agreements and all related Contracts and documents (including any employee summaries and material employee communications) and (v) all closing letters, audit finding letters, revenue agent findings and similar documents issued by a Governmental Authority.

With respect to each Parent Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) and/or 4975(e)(7) of the Code, each such Parent Plan has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified, and each trust forming a part thereof has been determined by the IRS to be exempt from Tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. To the knowledge of Parent, no reason exists which would cause such qualified status to be revoked. To the knowledge of Parent, no non-exempt prohibited transactions under Section 406 or 407 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code have occurred with respect to any Parent Plan that would reasonably be expected to subject such Parent Plan or Parent or applicable Parent ERISA Affiliate to any material penalty under the Code or ERISA.

No Parent Plan is currently under audit or examination by the IRS or the DOL. There are no pending or, to Parent’s knowledge, threatened, audits, investigations, claims, suits, grievances or other proceedings.

The events contemplated in this Agreement will not trigger, or entitle any current or former employee of Parent to, severance, termination, change in control payments or accelerated vesting under any Parent Plan, and will not result in any material Tax or other liability payable by any Parent Plan or, with respect to any Parent Plan, by Parent or any Parent ERISA Affiliate.

Benefits provided to participants under each Parent Plan (other than a tax qualified plan under Code Section 401(a) or a plan established under Code Section 408(p)) are provided exclusively from insurance policies or the general assets of Parent and/or its Parent ERISA Affiliates.

Parent and/or its Parent ERISA Affiliates can terminate each Parent Plan without material liability to Parent and/or its Parent ERISA Affiliates. No action or omission of Parent, any Parent ERISA Affiliate or any director, officer, employee, or agent thereof in any way restricts, impairs or prohibits Parent, the Company, any Parent ERISA Affiliate or any successor from amending, merging, or terminating any Parent Plan in accordance with the express terms of any such Parent Plan and applicable law.

To the knowledge of Parent, there are no facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to, directly or indirectly, subject Parent or any Parent ERISA Affiliate to any (i) excise Tax or other liability under Chapters 43, 46 or 47 of Subtitle D of the Code, (ii) penalty Tax or other liability under Chapter 68 of Subtitle F of the Code or (iii) civil penalty, damages or other liabilities arising under Section 502 of ERISA.

None of Parent or its Parent ERISA Affiliates have established or contributed to, is required to contribute to or has or could reasonably be expected to have any liability of any nature, whether known or unknown, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, with respect to any “voluntary employees’ beneficiary association” within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code, “welfare benefit fund” within the meaning of Section 419 of the Code, “qualified asset account” within the meaning of Section 419A of the Code, or “multiple employer welfare arrangement” within the meaning of Section 3(40) of ERISA.

All Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans (as defined in Code Section 409A(d)(1)) of Parent are in material compliance with Code Section 409A.

The exercise price of each Parent Stock Option granted under the Parent Stock Option Plan is not less than the fair market value, determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, of a Share of the underlying Parent Common Stock on the date such Parent Stock Option was granted. No Parent Stock Option granted under the Parent Stock Option Plan provides for a deferral of compensation under Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(5).

With respect to each Parent Plan, Parent has operated each Parent Plan in material compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to employee benefit plans of public companies, including, without limitation, Section 162(m) of the Code and Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and no material liability or loss of Tax deduction has resulted from any noncompliance.

Parent shall, with the cooperation of the Company, prepare and file, as soon as reasonably practicable, a registration statement under the Securities Act registering the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger (the “Registration Statement”), which Registration Statement shall include the Proxy Statement. Parent will use all reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as promptly thereafter as practicable. Parent shall also take any action required to be taken under state blue sky or securities laws in connection with the issuance of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger. The Company shall furnish to Parent all information concerning the Company and the holders of its capital stock, and shall take such other reasonable action and otherwise cooperate, as Parent may reasonably request in connection with any such action.

Parent shall notify the Company promptly of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the receipt of comments of the SEC with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, and shall provide the Company with an opportunity to participate in the response of Parent to such comments.

The Parties shall promptly file such amendment or supplement with the SEC and mail such amendment or supplement as soon as practicable after it is cleared by the SEC.

In addition, the Parties shall cooperate with one another regarding the preparation of any filings with the SEC that may be required under the Exchange Act.

Stockholder Meetings or Communication with Stockholders.

Following effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company shall, in accordance with Applicable Law and its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, solicit the written consent resolutions of its stockholders approving and adopting the agreement of merger (as such term is used in Section 251 of the DGCL) set forth in this Agreement and approving the Merger and the other matters appurtenant thereto.

Parent shall, in accordance with Applicable Law and its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold an annual meeting (as the same may be duly adjourned, the “Parent Annual Meeting”) of its stockholders for the purpose of approving (i) an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized capital stock, (ii) an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change its name as of the Effective Time to such name as may be mutually agreed by the Parties following the date hereof, (iii) an amendment to the Parent Stock Option Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under such Plan, as determined in accordance with Section 5.16, (iv) an increase in the number of members on the Parent Board of Directors to seven, (v) the election of seven Persons to serve as directors of Parent from and after the Effective Time, and (vi) the issuance of Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

Parent shall include in the Proxy Statement the recommendation of the Parent Board of Directors that its shareholders vote in favor of the six items listed above.

Update Disclosure; Breaches. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give prompt notice to the Company, to the extent that either acquires actual knowledge of (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event the occurrence or non-occurrence of which would be reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to be untrue in any material respect and (b) any failure of Parent, Merger Subsidiary or Company, as the case may be, to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the Party receiving such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that, from the date of this Agreement until the Closing, no action taken by the Company in compliance with the Operating Budget, or otherwise taken in accordance with the prior written consent of Parent’s Chief Executive Officer, shall be deemed to result in a Material Adverse Effect of the Company.

No Solicitation.

Each Party agrees (i) it and its authorized representatives will negotiate exclusively with the other Party hereto and its authorized representatives regarding the transaction contemplated hereby and will not, directly or indirectly, encourage or solicit the submission of, entertain inquiries, proposals or offers from, or enter into any agreement or negotiate with any Person (other than the Parties) for the sale, acquisition or other combination of any Party (whether by merger, combination, sale of assets, sale of stock or otherwise) or other disposition of assets or technology (an “Alternative Transaction”) other than, solely with respect to dispositions of assets or technology, in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) it will not furnish to any Person (other than the Parties) any information with respect to any Alternative Transaction. Each Party agrees to take all reasonably necessary steps to promptly inform any Person who inquires of such Party regarding a potential Alternative Transaction of the obligations undertaken in this Section 5.9. Each Party agrees to promptly inform the other Parties of any such inquiry from any Person, including the material terms thereof (including without limitation, any terms regarding price) and the identity of the Person making such inquiry, and to keep the other Parties informed, on a current basis, of the status and terms of any such proposed Alternative Transaction.

Notwithstanding Sections 5.9(a) and 5.9(b), prior to the receipt of approval by the shareholders of Parent of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Parent Board of Directors may (i) participate in negotiations or discussions with any third party that has made (and not withdrawn) a bona fide, unsolicited proposal of an Alternative Transaction regarding Parent that the Parent Board of Directors reasonably believes in good faith constitutes or would be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, (ii) thereafter furnish to such third party non-public information relating to Parent pursuant to an executed confidentiality agreement, (iii) following receipt of and on account of a Superior Proposal, make a Change in Recommendation, and/or (iv) take any action that any court of competent jurisdiction orders Parent to take (which order remains unstayed), but in each case referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), only if the Parent Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to cause Parent Board of Directors to be in breach of its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. In no event shall the Parent Board of Directors (i) make a Change in Recommendation or (ii) enter into an Alternative Transaction Agreement, without first delivering written notice to the Company at least five Business Days in advance thereof (in each case, a “Section 5.9 Notice”).

Nothing contained herein shall prohibit Parent from providing accurate disclosure (and such disclosure shall not be deemed to be a Change in Recommendation) of factual information regarding the business, financial condition or results of operations of Parent or the fact that a proposal regarding an Alternative Transaction has been made, the identity of the Person making such proposal, the position of the Parent Board of Directors with respect to such proposal or the material terms of such proposal in the Proxy Statement, Registration Statement or otherwise, to the extent that Parent in good faith determines that such information, facts, identity, position or terms is required to be disclosed under Applicable Law.

State Takeover Statutes. Parent and the Company and their respective Boards of Directors shall (a) take all reasonable actions necessary to ensure that no “Fair Price,” “Control Share Acquisition,” “Business Combination” or other anti-takeover statute, or similar statute or regulation, is or becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (b) if any “Fair Price,” “Control Share Acquisition,” “Business Combination” or other anti-takeover statute, or similar statute or regulation, becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, grant such actions and take all reasonable action necessary to ensure that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

Stockholder Litigation. The Parties shall cooperate and consult with one another, to the fullest extent possible, in connection with any stockholder litigation against any of them or any of their respective directors or officers with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

At and as of the Effective Time, the Parent Board of Directors shall also cause Mr. Grooms to be elected as Interim Chairman of the Parent Board of Directors or, if Mr. Grooms is unable or unwilling to serve in such position, then such other member of the Parent Board of Directors as Parent shall choose in its discretion, and cause the two members of the Parent Board of Directors who were on the Board prior to the Effective Time to serve as Chairs of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee of the Board as of the Effective Time. Parent and Company agree that the first annual meeting of Parent shareholders and election of Parent directors to be held after the Effective Time shall occur between March 31, 2012 and October 1, 2012, and that the nominees for director of Parent to be elected at that meeting shall be determined by the Parent Board of Directors in the ordinary course prior to that meeting with no obligation to nominate or renominate any particular Person for election to the Parent Board of Directors.

Restrictions on Transfer of Parent Common Stock. Parent and the Company agree to cause each Person who will be a director, officer or holder of more than 5% of the Parent Common Stock to be outstanding after the Merger (each such person, a “Restricted Stockholder”) to execute and deliver to Parent on or prior to the Closing Date a Share Transfer Restriction Agreement, in the form mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company (the “Share Transfer Restriction Agreement”), which Share Transfer Restriction Agreement shall contain, among others, the following restrictions:

In no event will any Restricted Stockholder sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (“Transfer”) all or any portion of the shares of Parent Common Stock beneficially owned by such Restricted Stockholder immediately after the Merger prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Initial Lock-Up Period”).

During the six-month period following the Initial Lock-Up Period, this transfer restriction shall lapse with respect to 50% of the shares of Parent Common Stock beneficially owned by such Restricted Stockholder immediately after the Merger.

Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that, at or immediately after the Effective Time, up to $2.0 million of additional capital may be invested in Parent by certain investors, which may include Parent.

To the extent any such additional investment is to be made by Parent, it shall be effected by increasing the amounts of the Agreed Upon Value of Parent and the Agreed Upon Value of Parent Post-Merger by the amount of such investment by Parent and then adjusting all definitions in Article 10 that are impacted by the foregoing changes to such agreed upon values so that such definitions reflect these changes. The Persons making such investments and the amounts to be invested must be determined prior to the filing of the Registration Statement.

Amendments; No Waivers.

Subject to Applicable Law, 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 all Parties, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

No waiver by a Party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent occurrence. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and in closing and carrying out the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense; provided that, (i) in the event the Company breaches its agreement in Section 5.9 and the Merger is not consummated, then Parent shall be entitled to reimbursement from Company for its reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) in the event (A) Parent breaches its agreement in Section 5.9 and the Merger is not consummated or (B) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(h), then the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from Parent for its reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. This Section 11.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of each other Party.

Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law).

Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts and the signatures delivered by facsimile, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Parties.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits, schedules and other agreements referred to herein or therein) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Letter of Intent. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder.

Captions. The captions herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall be ignored in the construction or interpretation hereof. All references to an Article or Section include all subparts thereof.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person, place or circumstance, shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or void, the remainder of this Agreement and such provisions as applied to other Persons, places and circumstances shall remain in full force and effect only if, after excluding the portion deemed to be unenforceable, the remaining terms shall provide for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in substantially the same manner as originally set forth at the later of the date this Agreement was executed or last amended.

Construction. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant.

Cumulative Remedies. Except as otherwise provided herein, the rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law or equity.

Third Party Beneficiaries. No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person, including any employee or former employee of Parent, Merger Subsidiary or the Company or any Affiliate thereof (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof).
