(e) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.02.

(a) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.03, each of the parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain prior to the Closing all Consents of all Governmental Authorities and other Persons necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Each of the parties hereto shall timely make or cause to be made all filings and submissions under Laws and regulations applicable to it as may be required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Except as set forth in the last sentence of Section 6.05(a), all filing fees payable in connection with any Consents, notifications, filings, registrations or other materials contemplated by this paragraph shall be paid entirely by Parent.

(b) Parent acknowledges that certain Consents and waivers as set forth on Schedule 4.06(b) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be required from parties to the Company Material Contracts and other Contracts to which the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is party and that such Consents and waivers may not be obtained. Except for the failure by the Company to use its reasonable best efforts in accordance with Section 6.04(a) above or any other breach of this Agreement by the Company, the Company shall not have any liability whatsoever to Parent or Copper arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any Consents or waivers that may be required under Contracts as set forth on Schedule 4.06(b) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the termination of any such Contract as a result thereof.

(c) The Company shall, immediately following the execution and delivery hereof by all parties hereto, take all actions necessary in accordance with the DGCL to obtain, and shall obtain, irrevocable written consents from its stockholders approving and adopting this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (such irrevocable written consents from the Company stockholders party to the Voting Agreement, the “Stockholder Consent”) and shall deliver such Stockholder Consent to Parent within one (1) Business Day following the date hereof. Within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of the Stockholder Consent, the Company shall deliver, by any manner permitted by applicable Law, the notice required pursuant to Sections 228 and 262 of the DGCL to each holder of record of capital stock of the Company that has not theretofore executed and delivered an irrevocable written stockholder consent and is entitled to such notice under the DGCL (the “Appraisal Notice”). Parent and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Appraisal Notice prior to the delivery of such Appraisal Notice to such holders and the Company shall consider in good faith the reasonable comments of Parent or Parent’s counsel. The Appraisal Notice shall comply in all material respects with the DGCL and other applicable Law.

As applicable, each party shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all respects with each Governmental Authority in connection with any such filing or submission, (ii) keep the other party reasonably informed of any communication submitted to or received from any Governmental Authority in connection with any such filing or submission, (iii) permit the other party to review any communication submitted by the Company to, and consult with the other party in advance of any meeting or conference with, any Governmental Authority in connection with any such filing or submission and (iv) permit the other party or its designee the opportunity to attend and participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in connection with any such filing or submission.

SECTION 6.05. Antitrust Notifications and Approvals.

(a) Without limiting the generality of Section 6.03, the parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to prepare and file (i) required or necessary Notification and Report Forms under the HSR Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder with the FTC and the DOJ, and (ii) notifications, filings, registrations and other materials required or necessary under any applicable Foreign Antitrust Law, in each case, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days from and after the date hereof, and shall respond as promptly as practicable to all requests or inquiries received from any Governmental Authority for additional documentation or information. The parties hereto shall also cooperate with each other and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to make such other filings as are necessary, if any, in other jurisdictions in order to comply with all applicable Laws relating to competition and shall promptly provide any supplemental information or documentation requested by any Governmental Authority relating thereto. All filing fees payable in connection with the notifications, filings, registrations or other materials contemplated by this paragraph shall be shared equally by Parent and the Company.

(b) Each party to this Agreement shall promptly notify the other parties of any material communication it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Section 6.05 and permit the other parties to review in advance, to the extent permitted by Law, any proposed material communication by such party to any Governmental Authority relating thereto. No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any material meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry relating to the matters that are the subject of this Section 6.05 unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Laws, the parties to this

Agreement shall coordinate and cooperate fully and promptly with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods, including those under the HSR Act and any applicable Foreign Antitrust Law. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Laws, the parties to this Agreement shall provide each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the matters contemplated by this Section 6.05.

(c) Parent and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts (i) to obtain all applicable approvals from Governmental Authorities under applicable antitrust and competition laws, (ii) to prevent the initiation of any lawsuit by any Governmental Authority or any other Person under applicable antitrust and competition laws, and (iii) to prevent the entry of any decree, judgment, injunction preliminary or permanent, or any other Order that would otherwise enjoin, prohibit or otherwise make unlawful the Merger under applicable antitrust or competition laws. For purposes of this Section 6.05(c), reasonable best efforts shall include (i) providing information to such Governmental Authorities and other Persons and (ii) (A) proposing, negotiating, committing disposition of or holding separate (through the establishment of a trust or otherwise) such of Parent’s, the Company’s and their respective Subsidiaries’ assets, properties and businesses and of the assets, properties and businesses of the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries, (B) the termination, modification or extension of existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations of Parent, the Company, their respective Subsidiaries, the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries, (C) the establishment or creation of relationships and contractual rights and obligations of Parent, the Company, their respective Subsidiaries, the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries, (D) the termination of any relevant venture or other arrangement, (E) any other change or restructuring of Parent, the Company, their respective Subsidiaries, the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries, (F) in the case of Parent and Copper, consenting to any of the foregoing actions taken by the Company and its Subsidiaries and (G) in the case of the Company, consenting to any of the foregoing; provided, however, nothing in this Agreement (including the immediately following sentence) shall obligate Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to sell, dispose or hold separate, or consent to the sale, disposition or holding separate of, any assets or take any other action described in the preceding portion of this sentence (1) that in the aggregate consist of, or take any other actions that could reasonably be expected to result in the loss of, 7.50% or more of the combined consolidated EBITDA of Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 (based upon Parent’s and the Company’s books and records) or (2) the consummation or effectiveness of which is not conditioned on the consummation of the Closing. Without limitation, “reasonable best efforts” shall also include (x) defending in a reasonable manner any action or proceeding instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger under any antitrust or competition law, and (y) taking all reasonable actions to have vacated, rescinded, repealed, lifted, reversed, overturned or made inapplicable any decree, judgment, injunction or Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, restricts or delays consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any antitrust or competition law so as to permit consummation thereof, subject to, in the case of each of clause (x) and clause (y), the limitations set forth in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) In the event Parent or the Company receives a second request under the HSR Act or any similar inquiry or request under applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such party shall promptly comply with such request (i) as provided by Section 7A(e) of the HSR Act (but in no event more than sixty (60) calendar days from the date of service of such request) or (ii) as otherwise provided under applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws. For purposes of this provision, a party shall be deemed to have complied with any such request by providing a response that the party in good faith believes to be in substantial compliance and by certifying in writing to the other parties its prompt, substantial compliance. In the event that a party receives a subpoena or civil investigative demand requesting materials and information similar to that usually demanded in a second request under the HSR Act or any similar inquiry or request under applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws, such party shall promptly comply with such subpoena or civil investigative demand (but, with respect to a second request under the HSR Act, in no event more than sixty (60) calendar days from the date of service of the subpoena or civil investigative demand). In the event the Governmental Authority disputes the adequacy of compliance by a party with respect to a second request under the HSR Act or any similar inquiry or request under applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws, subpoena or civil investigative demand, such party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to endeavor to satisfy the Governmental Authority so as to minimize any delay in the conduct or resolution of the investigation.

(e) From the date of this Agreement through the date of termination of the required waiting periods under the HSR Act and all applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws, Parent, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall not take any action that could reasonably be expected to hinder or delay, as applicable, the obtaining of clearance or the expiration of the required waiting periods under the HSR Act or such applicable Foreign Antitrust Laws.

SECTION 6.06. Access to Information.

(a) Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Laws and Orders, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Closing and the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, the Company shall permit, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to permit, Parent and its advisors, accountants, attorneys and authorized representatives to have reasonable access, during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, to the offices, facilities, assets, properties, management-level employees, books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Parent, such financial, tax and operating data and other information with respect to such entities and their respective offices, facilities, assets, properties, employees, businesses and operations as Parent shall from time to time reasonably request. All access and investigation pursuant to this Section 6.06(a) shall be coordinated through the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operation Officer or General Counsel and shall be conducted at Parent’s expense and in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide such access to or to disclose such information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of its customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure of the Company or its Subsidiaries or contravene any Law or Order or any binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement

(provided that the Company and/or its counsel, as applicable, shall use their reasonable best efforts to enter into joint defense agreements or other arrangements, as appropriate, so as to allow for such access or disclosure in a manner that does not jeopardize such attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure or contravene any such Law or binding agreement or Order). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, (i) without the prior written consent of the Company, Parent shall not contact any vendor to, or customer of, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, to discuss the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and provided that the Company shall have the right to have a representative present during any such contact in the event that it is required to consent and consents to such contact, and (ii) Parent shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent may be withheld for any reason); provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent and Copper are expressly permitted to cause (at their sole discretion and expense) Phase I environmental assessments to be conducted with respect to the Owned Company Realty.

(b) Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Laws and Orders, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Closing and the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, Parent shall permit, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to permit, the Company and its advisors, accountants, attorneys and authorized representatives to have reasonable access, during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, to the offices, facilities, assets, properties, management-level employees, books and records of Parent and its Subsidiaries, and shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Company, such financial, tax and operating data and other information with respect to such entities and their respective offices, facilities, assets, properties, employees, businesses and operations as the Company shall from time to time reasonably request. All access and investigation pursuant to this Section 6.06(b) shall be coordinated through Parent’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer or General Counsel and shall be conducted at the Company’s expense and in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the businesses of Parent and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide such access to or to disclose such information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of its customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure of Parent or its Subsidiaries or contravene any Law or Order or any binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement (provided that Parent and/or its counsel, as applicable, shall use their reasonable best efforts to enter into joint defense agreements or other arrangements, as appropriate, so as to allow for such access or disclosure in a manner that does not jeopardize such attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure or contravene any such Law or binding agreement or Order). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, (i) without the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not contact any vendor to, or customer of, Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, and provided that Parent shall have the right to have a representative present during any such contact in the event that it consents to such contact, and (ii) the Company shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent may be withheld for any reason).

(c) The parties shall hold, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, advisors, accountants, attorneys and representatives to hold, any non-public information so provided to one another in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in confidence in accordance with the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that such information relating to the Company may be disclosed (following consultation with the Company to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances) (x) in connection with the marketing of the Debt Financing and (y) in connection with any filings required to be made by Parent pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act where the Required Company Financing Information is included or incorporated by reference.

SECTION 6.07. Public Statements. Except for a mutually agreed upon joint press release, which is being issued by the parties on the date hereof, and except as required by applicable Law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange upon which Parent’s, the Company’s, the Surviving Entity’s, any Eligible Holder’s or any of their respective Affiliates’ securities are traded, in which event the parties shall consult with each other in advance and provide the non-disclosing party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such disclosure, no press release or other public announcement, statement or comment in response to any inquiry relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued, made or permitted to be issued or made by any party to this Agreement or any of its Affiliates or representatives without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that any Affiliate of an Eligible Holder may disclose the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any material term hereof to its investors and potential investors that are subject to confidentiality restrictions with such Eligible Holder or such Affiliate in the ordinary course of business. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.07 shall not be interpreted so as to prevent any party from complying with Section 6.03, Section 6.04 or Section 6.05.

SECTION 6.08. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) For a period of six (6) years after the Closing, Parent shall not, and shall not permit the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries to, amend, repeal or modify any provision in the Surviving Entity’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ certificate or articles of incorporation, by-laws or other equivalent governing documents relating to the exculpation, indemnification or advancement of expenses of any Persons who at any time prior to or at the Effective Time are or were officers or directors (or their equivalent) of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (each, a “D&O Indemnified Person”) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (unless and to the extent required by Law), it being the intent of the parties that during such six-year period all such officers and directors of the Company and the Subsidiaries shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses to the full extent of the Law and that no change, modification or amendment of such documents or arrangements may be made that will adversely affect any such Person’s right thereto without the prior written consent of that Person.

(b) In addition to the other rights provided for in this Section 6.08 and not in limitation thereof, for a period of six (6) years from and after the Closing, the Surviving Entity shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (each, a “D&O Indemnifying Party”) to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) indemnify and hold harmless (and exculpate from any liability to the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries) the D&O Indemnified Persons

against all D&O Expenses and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (“D&O Losses”) in respect of any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, inquiry, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, based on or arising out of or relating to the fact that such Person is or was a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and arising out of or relating to acts or omissions occurring or existing at or prior to the Closing (including in respect of acts or omissions in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) (a “D&O Indemnifiable Claim”) and (ii) advance, unconditionally and interest-free, to such D&O Indemnified Persons all D&O Expenses incurred in connection with any D&O Indemnifiable Claim (including in circumstances where the D&O Indemnifying Party is otherwise entitled to assume the defense of such claim and has assumed such defense) promptly after receipt of statements therefor; provided, however, that the Person to whom D&O Expenses are to be advanced provides an unsecured undertaking to repay such advances to the extent it is ultimately and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Person is not entitled to indemnification. Advance payment of D&O Expenses in connection with any D&O Indemnifiable Claims shall continue during such six-year period or, for any D&O Indemnifiable Claim that is pending at the expiration of such six-year period, until such D&O Indemnifiable Claim is disposed of or all judgments, orders, decrees or other rulings in connection with such D&O Indemnifiable Claim are fully and finally satisfied. For the purposes of this Section 6.08(b), “D&O Expenses” shall mean attorneys’ fees, expert fees, arbitrator and mediator fees, and all other costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or otherwise participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend to be a witness in or participate in, any D&O Indemnifiable Claim, but shall exclude losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (which items are included in the definition of D&O Losses).

(c) Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity as of the Effective Time to obtain and fully pay for, at Parent’s expense (provided, that the Company shall be responsible for any amount in excess of $357,104), “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit ratings as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to officers’ and directors’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (collectively, “D&O Insurance”), for the persons who are covered by the Company’s existing D&O Insurance, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable as the Company’s existing D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with respect to matters arising out of or relating to acts or omissions occurring or existing at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to maintain such D&O Insurance in full force and effect for its full six-year term. If Parent and the Surviving Entity for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, continue to maintain in effect the Company’s existing D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement, at no expense to the beneficiaries, for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, for the persons who are covered by the Company’s D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or, if such insurance is unavailable, the Surviving Entity shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, purchase the best available D&O Insurance for such six-year period from

an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to the Company’s existing D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and with levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement (provided that Parent shall not be required to expend any amount in excess of $357,104 pursuant to this sentence).

(d) In the event that Parent or the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or Surviving Entity or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and other assets to any Person (including by liquidation, dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar action), then, and in each such case, Parent or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall cause proper provision to be made so that the applicable successors and assigns or transferees shall succeed to (or expressly assume) the obligations set forth in this Section 6.08.

(e) Each of the Company, Parent, the Surviving Entity and their respective Subsidiaries shall be a full indemnitor of first resort, shall be required to advance the full amount of all D&O Expenses incurred by a D&O Indemnified Person and shall be liable for the full amount of all D&O Losses in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.08 to the extent legally permitted and as required, without regard to any rights a D&O Indemnified Person may have against Bain Capital Partners, LLC or any of its Affiliates or otherwise or any insurer providing insurance coverage under an insurance policy issued to Bain Capital Partners, LLC or any of its Affiliates.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the rights and benefits of the D&O Indemnified Persons under this Section 6.08 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of such D&O Indemnified Person. The provisions of this Section 6.08 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person referred to in Section 6.08(a), his or her heirs and his or her executors, administrators and personal representatives, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.08, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights, including rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

SECTION 6.09. Employee Benefits.

(a) During the one year period commencing on the Closing Date, Parent and the Company agree to keep in effect all severance and retention plans, practices and policies that are applicable to employees and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof and set forth on Schedule 6.09(a); provided, however, except as otherwise agreed to in a written agreement in effect as of the date hereof, Parent shall be entitled to pay (or to revise or amend any severance or retention plans, practices and policies to provide for) any severance or other post-employment termination compensation or benefits to be paid in accordance with the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’, as applicable, payroll schedule and practices instead of by any lump sum payment, only to the extent doing so would not result in adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Subject to Section 6.09(a) above, if reasonably requested by Parent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees to amend, merge, terminate or take any other action with respect to the Company Plans (provided, that any such amendment, merger, termination or other action shall be contingent upon and only effective upon the occurrence of the Closing); to provide all required notices to participants and appropriate Governmental Authorities; to adopt all necessary resolutions and Company Plan amendments in order to accomplish such requests; and to provide to Patent satisfactory evidence of such actions.

(c) For purposes of eligibility, vesting and entitlement to benefits, including the determination of the level of vacation and severance pay benefits under the benefit and compensation plans, programs, agreements and arrangements of Parent, the Surviving Entity or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which employees are eligible to participate following the Closing (the “New Plans”), Parent and the Surviving Entity shall credit each employee with his or her years of service with the Company, its Subsidiaries and any predecessor entities, to the same extent as such employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing to credit for such service under any similar Company Plan, in accordance with applicable Law, except where such crediting would result in duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of services or for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan. The New Plans shall not deny employees coverage on the basis of pre-existing conditions to the extent such conditions were waived or satisfied under similar Company Plans immediately prior to the Closing and, subject to the requirement of applicable Law, shall credit such employees for any deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses paid prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses in the applicable plan year to which such deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses relate.

(d) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to, prior to the Closing Date, (i) secure from each Person who is a disqualified person with respect to the Company and who has a right to any payments and/or benefits as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated herein that would be deemed to constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Code Section 280G and the regulations promulgated thereunder (hereafter, “Section 280G”)) a waiver of such Person’s rights to all of such payments and/or benefits to the minimum extent necessary (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) applicable to such Person so that all remaining payments and/or benefits applicable to such Person shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G), and (ii) solicit the approval of the stockholders of the Company, to the extent and in a manner required under Code Sections 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) and 280G(b)(5)(B) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, of any Waived 280G Benefits and other potential payments and/or benefits that, if paid or made by the Company could, in the absence of the approval described in this Section 6.09(d) constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G (“Other Benefits”). Any Waived 280G Benefits that fail to be approved by the stockholders of the Company as contemplated above shall not be paid or provided.

(g) by the Company, by written notice to Parent, if the condition set forth in Section 7.03(c) cannot be satisfied and the occurrence of the Parent Material Adverse Effect cannot be cured by Parent or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by Parent of notice in writing from the Company, specifying the nature of such Parent Material Adverse Effect and requesting that it be cured;

SECTION 8.03. Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.02, (i) this Agreement shall thereafter become void and have no effect and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned, except that (1) this Section 8.03, Article IX and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement and remain valid and binding obligations of each of the parties and (2) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.02 shall not release any party hereto from, subject to the limitations set forth in the provisions of this Agreement that survive such termination as set forth in the immediately preceding clause (1) (including Section 8.03(b), Section 9.13 and Section 9.14), any liability for any willful breach by a party of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such willful breach prior to the termination of this Agreement) or for its intentional fraud relating to the subject matter of any of the representations and warranties in Article IV or Article V, as applicable, of this Agreement, and (ii) subject to the terms and conditions of the provisions of this Agreement that survive such termination as described in the immediately preceding clause (i), there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of (x) Parent, Copper or the Company, (y) any Parent Non-Recourse Party to the Company or any Company Non-Recourse Party or (z) any Company Non-Recourse Party to Parent or any Parent Non-Recourse Party. Subject to and without limitation of Section 8.03(b), Section 9.12(b) and Section 9.13, if a court has granted an award of damages in connection with any such willful breach by Parent, Copper or the Company of the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Company or Parent, as applicable, may enforce such award and accept damages for such breach, and Parent, Copper and the Company agree that such damages shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-

of-pocket costs, and may, if proven by Parent, Copper or the Company, as applicable, and awarded by such court include the benefit of the bargain lost by the Company and/or the holders of Company Shares or Parent and/or Copper, as applicable (taking into consideration all relevant matters, including other combination opportunities and the time value of money). For purposes of this Section 8.03, “willful breach” means a material breach that is a consequence of an act undertaken by the breaching party with the actual knowledge that the taking of such act would, or would be reasonably expected to, constitute a breach of this Agreement.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.02(h), then Parent shall pay the Company, or its designee, an amount equal to $50,000,000 (such amount, the “Parent Fee”) no later than two (2) Business Days after such termination of this Agreement by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Company to Parent (it being understood that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Parent be obligated to pay the Parent Fee on more than one occasion). Parent’s payment of the Parent Fee will be considered liquidated damages for any breach of or failure to perform this Agreement or the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) and for any and all losses, liabilities, damages or expenses suffered or incurred by the Company or any of the Company’s Non-Recourse Parties in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the failure of such transactions to be consummated or the abandonment or termination thereof) or for any matters forming the basis of such termination or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the right of the Company to seek specific performance in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, Section 9.12), in the event this Agreement may be terminated pursuant to Section 8.02(h), (x) the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.02(h) and receive, if due, payment of the Parent Fee pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 8.03(b) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and its Non-Recourse Parties for any breach of or failure to perform this Agreement or the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) and any and all losses, liabilities, damages or expenses suffered or incurred by the Company or any of its Non-Recourse Parties in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or otherwise (including the failure of such transactions to be consummated or the abandonment or termination thereof) or for any matters forming the basis of such termination or otherwise and, upon payment of the Parent Fee, none of the Company or any of its Non-Recourse Parties shall thereafter have any claims against Parent, Copper or any of their respective Non-Recourse Parties for any breach of or failure to perform this Agreement or the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any losses, liabilities, damages and expenses suffered or incurred by the Company or the Company’s Non-Recourse Parties in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the failure of such transactions to be consummated or the abandonment or termination thereof) or for any matters forming the basis of such termination or otherwise and (y) the Parent Fee shall be the maximum aggregate liability of Parent and Copper in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the failure of such transactions to be consummated or

the abandonment or termination thereof) or for any matters forming the basis of such termination or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon payment of the Parent Fee, none of Parent, Copper or any of their respective Non-Recourse Parties shall have any further liability or obligation to the Company or any of its Non-Recourse Parties for any breach of or failure to perform this Agreement or the Debt Financing Commitment (or any definitive agreement related thereto) or any losses, liabilities, damages or expenses suffered or incurred by the Company or any of its Non-Recourse Parties in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Financing Commitment or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or otherwise (including the failure of such transactions to be consummated or the abandonment or termination thereof) or for any matters forming the basis of such termination or otherwise, in each case whether at Law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable Litigation or other proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Laws or otherwise and whether by or through a claim by or on behalf of a party hereto or any Person (including a claim to enforce the Debt Financing Commitment) or otherwise.

(c) The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Person other than the Company may seek to enforce the obligation of Parent to pay the Parent Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(b).

(d) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof:

(i) all confidential information received by the parties shall be treated in accordance with Section 6.06(c) hereof and the Confidentiality Agreement referred to in such Section; and

(ii) all filings, applications and other submissions made pursuant to Section 6.03, Section 6.04 and Section 6.05 hereof shall, to the extent practicable, be withdrawn from the Governmental Authority, agency or other Person to which made.

SECTION 9.02. Amendment/Waiver, etc. 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 Parent and the Company, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any 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 parties to this Agreement shall be expressly forbidden from amending the provisions of this Section 9.02, Section 8.03, the proviso to Section 9.03, Section 9.06, Section 9.08 or Section 9.13 in a manner materially adverse to the Debt Financing Sources (solely in their respective capacities as such) without the prior written consent of the applicable Debt Financing Sources whose consent is required to be obtained under the Debt Financing Commitment.

SECTION 9.03. Assignment. No party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempt to assign this Agreement without such consent shall be void and of no effect; provided, however, that Parent and Copper may assign this Agreement and its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company or any other Person to any of the Debt Financing Sources (including the lenders pursuant to the terms thereof to the extent necessary 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 Parent or Copper of any liability or obligation hereunder.

SECTION 9.04. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Schedules and Exhibits hereto) contains the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, except for the Confidentiality Agreement and the Voting Agreement, each of which shall remain in full force and effect for the term provided for therein.

SECTION 9.05. Fulfillment of Obligations. Any obligation of any party under this Agreement, which obligation is performed, satisfied or fulfilled by an Affiliate of such party, shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such party.

SECTION 9.08. Governing Law/Jurisdiction/Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement, and any claim, suit, action or proceeding in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in law or in equity, and whether in contract or in tort or otherwise), shall be governed by and enforced pursuant to the laws of the

State of Delaware, its rules of conflict of laws notwithstanding. Each party hereby irrevocably agrees and consents to be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware and, if such Court of Chancery declines to exercise jurisdiction, the United States District Court located in the State of Delaware, in any suit, action or proceeding described in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 9.08(a). Each party hereby irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such suit, action or proceeding by the delivery of such process to such party at the address and in the manner provided in Section 9.01. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (i) the United States District Court located in the State of Delaware or (ii) the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in any forum other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware and, if such Court of Chancery declines to exercise jurisdiction, the United States District Court located in the State of Delaware, and that the provisions of Section 9.08(b) relating to the waiver of jury trial shall apply to any such action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF THE DEBT FINANCING COMMITMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE DEBT FINANCING. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 9.08(b).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.08(a) to the contrary, each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not bring or support any Litigation (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing Commitment or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof). The provisions of this Section 9.08(c) shall be enforceable by each Debt Financing Source, its Affiliates and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 9.09. Counterparts, etc. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile, scanned pages or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

SECTION 9.10. Headings, etc. The provision of the Table of Contents, the division of this Agreement into Articles, Sections and other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reading only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to any Article, Section, subsection or clause are to the corresponding Article, Section, subsection or clause of this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.

SECTION 9.11. Further Assurances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from time to time, at the request of any party hereto and at the expense of the party so requesting, each other party shall execute and deliver to such requesting party such documents and take such other action as such requesting party may reasonably request in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.12. Remedies.

(a) The parties understand and agree that the covenants and undertakings on each of their parts herein contained are uniquely related to the desire of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, that the transactions contemplated hereby represent a unique business opportunity at a unique time for each of the parties hereto and further agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and further agree that, although monetary damages may be available for the breach of such covenants and undertakings, monetary damages would, except as set forth in Section 8.03 and Section 9.12(b), be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, except as set forth in Section 8.03(b) and Section 9.12(b), each party hereto agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Copper, on the other hand, of this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Copper, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. In the event that any Litigation should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereto hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to enforce specifically the obligations of Parent and Copper to, and Parent and Copper shall not be obligated to, consummate the Closing or the Merger unless the Funding Condition has been satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance to require Parent and/or Copper to consummate the Closing and payment of money damages, including payment of the Parent Fee.

SECTION 9.13. Non-Recourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except with respect to (i) any claims against a Person in respect of its intentional fraud relating to the subject matter of any of the representations and warranties in Article IV or Article V, as applicable, of this Agreement and (ii) breaches of the Voting Agreement by the Company stockholders party thereto or the Termination and Release Agreement by the parties thereto, this Agreement may only be enforced against or by, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, may only be made against or by the entities that are expressly identified as parties to this Agreement in their capacities as such and then only with respect to the obligations expressly set forth herein with respect to such party and no former, current or future direct or indirect stockholders, equity holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, general or limited partners, members, managers, agents or Related Parties of any party hereto, or any former, current or future direct or indirect stockholder, equity holder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, agent or Related Party of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability hereunder or for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations (whether written or oral) made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover damages under this Agreement from, any Non-Recourse Party (including any of the Eligible Holders), except with respect to (i) any claims against a Person in respect of its intentional fraud relating to the subject matter of any of the representations and warranties in Article IV or Article V, as applicable, of this Agreement and (ii) breaches of the Voting Agreement by the Company stockholders party thereto or the Termination and Release Agreement by the parties thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a Non-Recourse Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Company nor any of its Non-Recourse Parties solely in their respective capacities as such, shall have any rights or claims in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby against any lender or any Affiliate thereof or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives or other Persons that have committed to provide or otherwise entered into agreements in connection with the Debt Financing (other than Parent and its Subsidiaries).

SECTION 9.14. Certain Damages and Remedies. Except (a) as set forth in the penultimate sentence of Section 8.03(a), (a) for its intentional fraud relating to the subject matter of any of the representations and warranties in Article IV or Article V, as applicable, of this Agreement and (c) as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no party shall be liable for any consequential damages, damages based upon loss of revenue, income or profits, loss or diminution in value of assets or securities, damages calculated by “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or other valuation methodology, or punitive, special, exemplary or indirect damages, in each case in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in law or in equity, and whether in contract or in tort or otherwise) or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, after the Closing, except with respect to any claims of intentional fraud of the other party or parties relating to the subject matter of any of the representations and warranties in Article IV or Article V, as applicable, of this Agreement, no party may seek to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.15. Waiver of Conflicts. Recognizing that Ropes & Gray LLP has acted as legal counsel to the Company, its Subsidiaries, certain of the direct and indirect holders of Company Shares and certain of their respective Affiliates prior to date hereof both with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein and otherwise, and that Ropes & Gray LLP intends to act as legal counsel to certain of the direct and indirect holders of Company Shares and their respective Affiliates (which will no longer include the Company and its Subsidiaries) after the Effective Time, each of Parent, Copper and the Company hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries, the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with Ropes & Gray LLP representing certain of the direct or indirect holders of the Company Shares or their Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to Parent, Copper, the Company, the Surviving Entity or its Subsidiaries or the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between certain of the direct and indirect holders of Company Shares, the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Ropes & Gray LLP, on the other hand, solely to the extent relating to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and requested by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of any pending or threatened litigation by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries against any holder of Company Shares or any of its Affiliates with respect to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or to be utilized by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of any such pending or threatened litigation shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong, from and after the Effective Time, solely to certain of the direct and indirect holders of Company Shares and their respective Affiliates (and not the Company, the Surviving Entity or its Subsidiaries). Accordingly, the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries shall not have access to, nor any property interest in, any such communications or to the files of Ropes & Gray LLP relating to such engagement for such purposes from and after the Effective Time.
