          WHEREAS, in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto: (i) WPM, L.P. (the “ Shareholder ”) has entered into a Support Agreement (the “ Support Agreement ”), dated as of the date hereof, with Georgia, Merger Sub and Wisconsin, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A , pursuant to which the Shareholder has agreed, among other things, to vote all of the Wisconsin Common Stock (as defined herein) beneficially owned by it in favor of the Merger; (ii) Georgia and the Shareholder have entered into a Shareholders Agreement (the “ Shareholders Agreement ”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F , which will become effective upon the Closing; and (iii) Georgia, the Shareholder and Wisconsin have entered into a Stock Purchase Right Agreement (the “ SPR Agreement ”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G; and

Upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Certificates for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such properly completed letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate or Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, as applicable, (i) a certificate representing the number of whole

shares of Georgia Common Stock to which such holder of Wisconsin Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article I (after taking into account all shares of Wisconsin Common Stock then held by such holder), (ii) a check representing the amount of any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article II , and (iii) a check representing the amount of any dividends or distributions then payable pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(i) , and the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash in lieu of fractional shares or on any unpaid dividends and distributions payable to holders of Certificates. Until so surrendered, each Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares and any dividends or distributions as contemplated by Section 2.2(b) .

          (b) No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to Georgia Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Article II . After the surrender of a Certificate in accordance with this Article II , the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive (i) the amount of any dividends or distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which have been declared by Wisconsin in respect of the shares of Wisconsin Common Stock after the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time, (ii) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid, without any interest thereon, with respect to the whole shares of Georgia Common Stock represented by such Certificate, and (iii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender, with respect to shares of Georgia Common Stock represented by such Certificate.

          (c) If any certificate representing shares of Georgia Common Stock is to be issued in, or any cash is paid to, a name other than that in which the Certificate or Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor is or are registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance or payment thereof that the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment or issuance in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “ Person ” means any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, joint venture, trust, unincorporated organization, other entity or group (as defined in the Exchange Act), including any Governmental Entity.

          (d) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Wisconsin of the shares of Wisconsin Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than to settle transfers of Wisconsin Common Stock that occurred prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II .

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Georgia Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender of Certificates for exchange, no dividend or distribution with respect to Georgia Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Georgia. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Georgia shall pay to each former shareholder of Wisconsin that otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share (after taking into account all shares of Wisconsin Common Stock held at the Effective Time by such holder) an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying (i) the average, rounded to the nearest ten thousandth, of the closing sale prices of Georgia Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “ NYSE ”) as reported by The Wall Street Journal for the five full NYSE trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Date by (ii) the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Georgia Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.4 .

          (f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of Wisconsin as of the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be paid to Georgia. Any former shareholders of Wisconsin who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Georgia for payment of the Merger Consideration, cash in lieu of any fractional shares and any unpaid dividends and distributions payable in accordance with Section 2.2(b) in respect of each share of Wisconsin Common Stock, as the case may be, such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Georgia, Merger Sub, Wisconsin, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Wisconsin Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

          (g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Georgia, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as Georgia may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(b) .

          2.3 Withholding Rights . The Exchange Agent (or, subsequent to the first anniversary of the Effective Time, Georgia) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Georgia Common Stock, cash dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(b) hereof and any other cash amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Wisconsin Common Stock such amounts as the Exchange Agent or Georgia, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent the amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent or Georgia, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Wisconsin Common Stock in respect of whom

such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent or Georgia, as the case may be.

          (e) With respect to each Wisconsin Plan that is subject to Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 or 4971 of the Code, (i) there does not exist any accumulated funding deficiency within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, whether or not waived, and, (ii) except as would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect: (A) the fair market value of the assets of such Wisconsin Plan equals

or exceeds the actuarial present value of all accrued benefits under such Wisconsin Plan (whether or not vested) based on the assumptions used in the latest annual actuarial report for such plan; (B) no reportable event within the meaning of Section 4043(c) of ERISA for which the 30-day notice requirement has not been waived has occurred; (C) all premiums to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “ PBGC ”) have been timely paid in full; (D) no liability (other than for premiums to the PBGC) under Title IV of ERISA has been or would reasonably be expected to be incurred by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates; and (E) to the Knowledge of Wisconsin, the PBGC has not instituted proceedings to terminate any such Wisconsin Plan and, to Wisconsin’s Knowledge, no condition exists which would reasonably be expected to constitute grounds under Section 4042 of ERISA for the termination of, or the appointment of a trustee to administer, any such Wisconsin Plan.

          (f) (i) No Wisconsin Benefit Plan is a Multiemployer Plan or a plan that has two or more contributing sponsors at least two of whom are not under common control, within the meaning of Section 4063 of ERISA (a “ Multiple Employer Plan ”); (ii) none of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries nor any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has, at any time during the last six years, contributed to or been obligated to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan; and (iii) none of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries nor any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has incurred, during the last six years, any Withdrawal Liability that has not been satisfied in full. To the Knowledge of Wisconsin, there does not now exist, nor do any circumstances exist that would reasonably be expected to result in, any Controlled Group Liability that would be a liability of Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary following the Effective Time, other than such liabilities that arise solely out of, or relate solely to, the Wisconsin Benefit Plans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary, nor, to Wisconsin’s Knowledge, any of their respective ERISA Affiliates, has engaged in any transaction described in Section 4069 or Section 4204 or 4212 of ERISA.

          (g) Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries have no liability for life, health, medical or other welfare benefits to former employees or beneficiaries or dependents thereof, except for health continuation coverage as required by Section 4980B of the Code or Part 6 of Title I of ERISA and at no expense to Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries.

          (h) Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will, either alone or in conjunction with any other event (whether contingent or otherwise), (i) result in any payment or benefit becoming due or payable, or required to be provided, to any director, employee or independent contractor of Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, (ii) increase the amount or value of any benefit or compensation otherwise payable or required to be provided to any such director, employee or independent contractor, (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, vesting or funding of any such benefit or compensation or (iv) result in any amount failing to be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code.

          (i) Each Wisconsin Benefit Plan and each Wisconsin Employment Agreement that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and any award thereunder, in each case that is subject to Section 409A of the

Code, has been established and maintained in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

          (j) No labor organization or group of employees of Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary has made a pending demand for recognition or certification, and there are no representation or certification proceedings or petitions seeking a representation proceeding presently pending or, to Wisconsin’s Knowledge, threatened to be brought or filed, with the National Labor Relations Board or any other labor relations tribunal or authority. Each of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries is in material compliance with all applicable Laws and collective bargaining agreements respecting employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, wages and hours and occupational safety and health.

          3.12 Compliance with Law; Permits . (a) Wisconsin and each Wisconsin Subsidiary is, and at all times since the later of January 1, 2006 or its respective date of formation or organization has been, in material compliance with all applicable federal, state, local or foreign or provincial law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, judgment, order, injunction, decree, award, settlement or agency requirement of or undertaking to or agreement with any Governmental Entity, including common law (collectively, “ Laws ” and each, a “ Law ”) and is not in material default under or in violation of any applicable Laws.

          (b) Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries are in possession of all material franchises, tariffs, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, variances, exceptions, consents, certificates, approvals and orders of any Governmental Entity (collectively, “ Permits ”) necessary for Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries to own, lease and operate their properties and assets or to carry on their businesses as they are now being conducted (the “ Wisconsin Permits ”). All Wisconsin Permits are in full force and effect. Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries are not, and since January 1, 2006 have not been, in material violation or breach of, or default under, any Wisconsin Permit.

          (c) This Section 3.12 does not relate to matters with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns (which are the subject of Section 3.10 ) and Employee Benefits (which are the subject of Section 3.11 ).

          3.13 Certain Contracts . (a) Except as set forth in the exhibit index to the Wisconsin 2008 10-K, or as permitted pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof or as set forth on Section 3.13 of the Wisconsin Disclosure Schedule, neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary is a party to or bound by (i) any Contract relating to the incurrence or guarantee of Indebtedness by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary in an amount in excess in the aggregate of $25,000,000 (collectively, “ Wisconsin Instruments of Indebtedness ”), (ii) any “material contract” (as such term is defined in Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K of the SEC), (iii) any non-competition Contract, or any other agreement or obligation which purports to limit or restrict in any material respect (A) the ability of Wisconsin or its Subsidiaries to solicit customers or (B) the manner in which, or the localities in which, all or any portion of the business of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries or, following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Georgia and the Georgia Subsidiaries, is or would be conducted, (iv) any Contract providing for any payments that are conditioned, in whole or in part, on a change of control of Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, (v) any collective bargaining agreement, (vi) any joint

          (b) Each Wisconsin Material Contract is valid and binding on Wisconsin (or, to the extent a Subsidiary of Wisconsin is a party, such Subsidiary) and, to the Knowledge of Wisconsin, any other party thereto, and is in full force and effect and enforceable against Wisconsin or a Wisconsin Subsidiary, as applicable (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar Laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies). Neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary is in material breach or default under any Wisconsin Material Contract. Neither Wisconsin nor any Subsidiary of Wisconsin has received notice of any material violation or default under any Wisconsin Material Contract by any other party thereto. Prior to the date hereof, Wisconsin has made available to Georgia true and complete copies of all Wisconsin Material Contracts. For purposes of this Agreement, “ Indebtedness ” of a Person means (i) all obligations of such Person for borrowed money, (ii) all obligations of such Person evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes and similar agreements, (iii) all leases of such Person capitalized pursuant to GAAP, and (iv) all obligations of such Person under sale-and-lease back transactions, agreements to repurchase securities sold and other similar financing transactions.

          3.14 Undisclosed Liabilities . Neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary has incurred any liability of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether due or to become due), except for (i) liabilities that are reflected or reserved against on the consolidated balance sheet of Wisconsin included in the Wisconsin 2008 10-K (including any notes thereto), (ii) liabilities incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since December 31, 2008, and (iv) liabilities that have not had and are not reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin.

          3.15 Environmental Liability . Except for matters that, individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin, (i) there are no legal, administrative, arbitral or other proceedings, claims, actions, causes of action, private environmental investigations or remediation activities or governmental investigations of any nature seeking to impose, or that are reasonably likely to result in the imposition, on Wisconsin of any liability or obligation under Environmental Laws, or pending or, to the Knowledge of Wisconsin, threatened against Wisconsin; (ii) Wisconsin is not subject to any Order or party to any agreement, order, judgment, decree, letter or memorandum by or with any third party imposing any liability or obligation under any Environmental Laws; (iii) Wisconsin has complied and is in compliance with all Environmental Laws, including obtaining and complying with all Permits that may be required pursuant to Environmental Laws; and (iv) Wisconsin has not treated, stored, disposed of, arranged for or permitted the disposal of, transported, handled, or released, or exposed any person to any hazardous substance or waste, or owned or operated any property or facility contaminated by any hazardous substance or waste so as to give rise to any current or future liabilities under Environmental Laws. For purposes of this Agreement, “ Environmental Laws ” means any common law or local, state, federal or foreign statute, regulation, ordinance or similar provision having the force or effect of law, any judicial and administrative order or determination, or any contractual obligation concerning public health and safety, worker health and safety, or pollution or protection of the environment, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended.

          3.16 Real Property .

          (a) Each of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries has good title free and clear of all Liens to all real property owned by such entities (the “ Wisconsin Owned Properties ”), except for Liens that do not materially detract from the present use of such real property.

          (b) A true and complete copy of each agreement pursuant to which Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary leases any material real property (such agreements, together with any amendments, modifications and other supplements thereto, collectively, the “ Wisconsin Leases ”) has heretofore been made available to Georgia. Each Wisconsin Lease is valid, binding and enforceable against Wisconsin or an applicable Wisconsin Subsidiary in accordance with its terms and is in full force and effect (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar Laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies), except where the failure to be valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect, individually or in the aggregate, is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin. There are no defaults by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, as applicable, under any of the Wisconsin Leases which, in the aggregate, would result in the termination of such Leases and a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not cause defaults under the Wisconsin Leases, except for any such default which would not individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          (c) The Wisconsin Owned Properties and the properties leased pursuant to the Wisconsin Leases (the “ Wisconsin Leased Properties ”) constitute all of the real estate on which Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries maintain their facilities or conduct their business as of

the date of this Agreement, except for locations the loss of which would not result in a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          (d) A true and complete copy of each agreement pursuant to which Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary leases any material real property to a third party (such agreements, together with any amendments, modifications and other supplements thereto, collectively, the “ Third Party Wisconsin Leases ”) has heretofore been made available to Georgia. Each Third Party Wisconsin Lease is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms and is in full force and effect (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar Laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies), except where the failure to be valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect, individually or in the aggregate, is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin. There are no existing defaults by the tenant under any Third Party Wisconsin Lease which, in the aggregate, would result in the termination of such Third Party Wisconsin Leases except for any such default which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          3.17 State Takeover Laws . Wisconsin has, or will have prior to the Effective Time, taken all necessary action so that, assuming compliance by Georgia and Merger Sub with their respective obligations hereunder and the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by Georgia and Merger Sub herein, no “business combination,” “moratorium,” “fair price,” “control share acquisition” or other state anti-takeover statute or regulation, nor any takeover-related provision in the Wisconsin Articles or the Wisconsin By-laws, would (i) prohibit or restrict Wisconsin’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement, any related agreement, the Support Agreement, or the Articles of Merger or its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) have the effect of invalidating or voiding this Agreement, the Support Agreement or the Articles of Merger, or any provision hereof or thereof, or (iii) subject Georgia to any impediment or condition in connection with the exercise of any of its rights under this Agreement or the Articles of Merger.

          3.18 Reorganization . As of the date of this Agreement, Wisconsin is not aware of any fact or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

          3.19 Opinion . Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of Wisconsin has received an opinion from Barclays Capital Inc. to the effect that as of the date thereof and based upon and subject to the matters set forth therein, the Exchange Ratio is fair to the shareholders of Wisconsin from a financial point of view. Such opinion has not been amended or rescinded as of the date of this Agreement.

          3.20 Internal Controls . (a) None of Wisconsin or its Subsidiaries’ records, systems, controls, data or information are recorded, stored, maintained, operated or otherwise wholly or partly dependent on or held by any means (including any electronic, mechanical or photographic process, whether computerized or not) which (including all means of access thereto and therefrom) are not under the exclusive ownership and direct control of it or its Subsidiaries or accountants except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a materially adverse effect on the system of internal accounting controls described in the

next sentence. Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries have designed and maintained a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

          (b) Wisconsin (i) has implemented and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information relating to Wisconsin (including the Wisconsin Subsidiaries), is made known to the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of Wisconsin by others within those entities, and (ii) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to Wisconsin’s outside auditors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Wisconsin (A) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) which are reasonably likely to adversely affect Wisconsin’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Wisconsin’s internal controls over financial reporting. These disclosures were made in writing by management to Wisconsin’s auditors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Wisconsin and a copy has previously been made available to Georgia. As of the date hereof, to the Knowledge of Wisconsin, there is no reason to believe that Wisconsin’s outside auditors and its chief executive officer and chief financial officer will not be able to give the certifications and attestations required pursuant to the rules and regulations adopted pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, without qualification, when next due.

          (c) Since December 31, 2005 through the date hereof, (i) neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary has received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary or their respective internal accounting controls, including any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices, and (ii) no attorney representing Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, whether or not employed by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, has reported evidence of a material violation of securities Laws, breach of fiduciary duty or similar violation by Wisconsin or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents to the Board of Directors of Wisconsin or any committee thereof or to any director or officer of Wisconsin.

          3.21 Insurance . Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries are insured with reputable insurers against such risks and in such amounts as its management reasonably has determined to be prudent in accordance with industry practices. To the Knowledge of Wisconsin, neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary is in material breach or material default of any insurance policies maintained by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary or has taken any action or failed to take any action that, with notice or the lapse of time, would constitute such a breach or default or permit termination (prior to the scheduled termination or expiration thereof) or modification of any such insurance policies. To the Knowledge of Wisconsin, neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary has received any notice of

termination or cancellation (prior to the scheduled termination or expiration thereof) or denial of coverage with respect to any such insurance policy.

          3.22 Wisconsin Information . The information relating to Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary to be included or incorporated by reference in the Joint Proxy Statement and the Form S-4 will not, at the time the Form S-4 is declared effective, the time the Joint Proxy Statement is first mailed to shareholders of Wisconsin and Georgia and the time of the Wisconsin Shareholders Meeting and the Georgia Shareholders Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. The information relating to Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary that is provided or to be provided by Wisconsin or its representatives for inclusion in any document (other than the Form S-4) filed with any other Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. All documents that Wisconsin is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby (including the Joint Proxy Statement) (except for such portions thereof that relate only to Georgia, Merger Sub or any of their Subsidiaries) will comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act.

          3.23 Intellectual Property . For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meaning:

          “ Intellectual Property ” means all intellectual property in any jurisdiction throughout the world including all (i) trademarks, service marks, brand names, Internet domain names, logos, symbols, trade dress, fictitious names, trade names, and other indicia of origin and all goodwill associated therewith and symbolized thereby; (ii) patents and inventions and discoveries, whether patentable or not, and improvements; (iii) confidential or proprietary information, trade secrets and know-how (including processes, schematics, business and other methods, formulae, drawings, specifications, prototypes, models, designs, plans, data, research and development, pricing and cost information, business and marketing plans and proposals, vendor, customer and supplier lists) (collectively, “ Trade Secrets ”); (iv) copyrights and works of authorship (including in any form or media) (whether or not copyrightable); (v) computer software programs (including source and object code), systems, data, databases and other compilations of information (and including all middleware, firmware, tools, applications and related documentation; (vi) disclosures, issuances, applications and registrations and any renewals thereof, and all extensions, modifications, reexaminations, renewals, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, reissues, restorations and reversions for or related to, as applicable, any of the foregoing; and (vii) copies and tangible embodiments or descriptions of any of the foregoing (in whatever form or medium).

          “ Wisconsin IT Assets ” means the computer software, firmware, middleware, servers, systems, networks, workstations, data communications lines, and all other information technology equipment, used by Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries.

          (a)  Section 3.23(a) of the Wisconsin Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all the following that are owned by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary, indicating for each item if applicable, the registration or application number, the record owner and the applicable filing jurisdiction: (i) material patented or registered Intellectual Property and (ii) pending patent applications or applications for registration of other material Intellectual Property.

          (b) Either Wisconsin or a Wisconsin Subsidiary owns all right, title and interest in and to, or is licensed or otherwise possesses adequate rights to use, all Intellectual Property material to their respective businesses as currently conducted (together with all Intellectual Property set forth in Section 3.23(a), collectively the “ Wisconsin IP ”) free and clear of any Liens (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, obligations to pay royalties or other amounts due under any licenses of Intellectual Property), and all such rights shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement on substantially similar terms as such rights existed prior to Closing. There are no pending or, to the Knowledge of Wisconsin, there have not been threatened within the past two years any, claims by any Person alleging infringement, misappropriation or other violation by Wisconsin or any Wisconsin Subsidiary of any other Person’s Intellectual Property that, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Wisconsin. To the Knowledge of Wisconsin, the conduct of the business of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Subsidiaries and use of the Wisconsin IP does not misappropriate, infringe or otherwise violate in any material respect any Intellectual Property of any other Person. Neither Wisconsin nor any Wisconsin Subsidiary has filed any claim for misappropriation, infringement or other violation by another Person of its rights in or to any of the Wisconsin IP within the past twenty-four (24) months. To the Knowledge of Wisconsin, no Person is misappropriating, infringing or otherwise violating any material Wisconsin IP.

          (c) Each Wisconsin IP Contract is valid and binding on Wisconsin and any Wisconsin Subsidiary to the extent such Subsidiary is a party thereto, as applicable, and in full force and effect (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar Laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies).
