4
such holder by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Stock Cap and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Electing Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Electing Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; and(3) i f the aggregate number of Electing Shares is less than the Stock Cap (the amount by which the aggregate number of Electing Shares is less than the Stock Cap being referred to herein as the “ Shortfall Number ”), then (x) all Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and (y) the Non-Electing Shares of each holder thereof will be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Electing Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Non-Electing Shares held by such holder by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Non-Electing Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Electing Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.Section 2.02 Exchange of Certificates .(a) Exchange Agent . As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement and in any event not less than three days prior to dissemination of the Joint Proxy Statement to the stockholders of the Company and the stockholders of Parent, Parent shall select a bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to the Company to act as exchange agent (the “ Exchange Agent ”) for payment of Merger Consideration upon surrender of certificates representing Company Common Stock. The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the Company’s stockholders for the purpose of receiving and holding their Forms of Election and Certificates and shall obtain no rights or interests in such shares. Promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, through the Exchange Agent (i) certificates representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable and (ii) the amount of cash consideration payable, in each case, pursuant to Section 2.01(c) in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (such shares of Parent Common Stock and cash, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the “ Exchange Fund ”). For the purposes of such deposit, Parent shall assume that there will not be any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock. Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 2.02(e). The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver Parent Common Stock contemplated to be issued pursuant to Section 2.01 out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund may not be used for any other purpose.
(b) Exchange Procedures . As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (the “ Certificates ”) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c) who did not complete an Form of Election pursuant to Section 2.03, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as
5
Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash, if any, and the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, into which the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(c), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Thereafter, such holder shall be treated as a holder of Parent Common Stock for purposes of voting or quorum for any meeting of the stockholders of Parent. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(c). No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.
(c) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares . No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date on or after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any Certificate formerly representing Company Common Stock with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.02(e) until the surrender of such Certificate in accordance with this Article II. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the holder of the Certificate representing whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.
(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock . The Merger Consideration paid and/or issued in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed to have been paid and/or issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock, subject, however, to the Surviving Entity’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by the Company on such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this
6
Agreement or prior to the date of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time, and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Entity of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.
(e) No Fractional Shares .(1) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(c), and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a holder of Parent Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 2.02(e), all fractional shares to which a single record holder would be entitled shall be aggregated and calculations shall be rounded to three decimal places.(2) In lieu of any such fractional shares, each holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to such fractional shares shall be entitled to an amount in cash, without interest, rounded to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (A) the amount of the fractional share interest in a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled under Section 2.01(c) (or would be entitled but for this Section 2.02(e)) and (B) an amount equal to the average of the closing sale prices for Parent Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Northeastern edition, for each of the ten consecutive trading days ending with the second complete trading day prior to the Effective Time.(f) Termination of Exchange Fund . Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Common Stock for six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Entity for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e)) and any applicable dividends or distributions with respect to any Parent Common Stock constituting Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.02(c), in each case, without any interest thereon.
(g) No Liability . None of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any cash or any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate has not been surrendered prior to five years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any such cash, shares, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Entity, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.
7
(h) Investment of Exchange Fund . The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent, in direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury or otherwise with the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), on a daily basis. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.
(i) Withholding Rights . Parent and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, the Surviving Entity will be treated as though it withheld an appropriate amount of the type of consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Stock, sold such consideration for an amount of cash equal to the fair market value of such consideration at the time of such deemed sale and paid such cash proceeds to the appropriate taxing authority.
(j) Income Tax Treatment . It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Subject to any revision to the structure of the transaction as provided under Section 6.12(c) hereof, the parties hereto hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meanings of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code.
Section 2.03 Elections .(a) Each person who, on or prior to the Election Date referred to in paragraph (b) below, is a record holder of shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled, with respect to all or any portion of such shares, to make an unconditional Stock Election on or prior to such Election Date, on the basis hereinafter set forth.(b) Parent shall prepare a form of election, which form shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Company (the “ Form of Election ”) and shall be mailed with the Joint Proxy Statement to the record holders of Company Common Stock as of the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting), which Form of Election shall be used by each record holder of shares of Company Common Stock who wishes to elect to receive the stock consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(1) for any or all shares of Company Common Stock held by such holder. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to make the Form of Election and the Joint Proxy Statement available to all persons who become record holders of Company Common Stock during the period between such record date and the Election Date, including using reasonable efforts to mail a Form of Election to all such persons who become record holders prior to the seventh Business Day prior to the Election Date. Any such holder’s election to receive the stock consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(1) shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have received at its designated office, by 5:00 p.m., Pacific Standard Time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “ Election Date ”), a Form of Election properly completed and signed and accompanied by Certificates for the shares of Company Common Stock to which such Form of Election relates, duly endorsed in
8
blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or accompanied by an appropriate guarantee of delivery of such Certificates as set forth in such Form of Election from a firm which is a member of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, provided such Certificates are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the date of execution of such guarantee of delivery). Failure to deliver Certificates covered by any guarantee of delivery within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the date of execution of such guarantee of delivery shall be deemed to invalidate any otherwise properly made Stock Election. Parent and the Company will announce the anticipated Closing Date at least three Business Days, but not more than ten Business Days, prior thereto. If the Closing is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Date shall be similarly delayed and Parent will promptly announce such rescheduled Election Date and Closing.
(c) Any Form of Election may be revoked by the stockholder who submitted such Form of Election to the Exchange Agent only by written notice received by the Exchange Agent (i) prior to 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the Election Date or (ii) after such time, if (and only to the extent that) the Exchange Agent is legally required to permit revocations and only if the Effective Time shall not have occurred prior to such date. In addition, all Forms of Election shall automatically be revoked if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by Parent and the Company that the Merger has been abandoned. If a Form of Election is revoked, the Certificate or Certificates (or guarantees of delivery, as appropriate) for the shares of Company Common Stock to which such Form of Election relates shall be promptly returned to the stockholder submitting the same to the Exchange Agent and any such shares shall be treated as Non-Electing Shares (unless and until another duly completed Form of Election (and the Certificate or Certificates, or guarantees of delivery, as applicable, to which such Form of Election relates) has been submitted to the Exchange Agent in accordance with this Agreement).(d) The determination of the Exchange Agent in its sole discretion shall be binding as to whether or not elections to receive the stock consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(1) have been properly made or revoked pursuant to this Section 2.03 with respect to shares of Company Common Stock and when elections and revocations were received by it. If no Form of Election is received with respect to shares of Company Common Stock, or if the Exchange Agent determines that any election to receive the stock consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(1) was not properly made with respect to shares of Company Common Stock, such shares shall be treated by the Exchange Agent as Non-Electing Shares at the Effective Time, and such shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration in accordance with Section 2.01(c)(1)(ii) (subject to Section 2.01(e)). The Exchange Agent shall also make all computations as to the proration contemplated by Section 2.01(e), and absent manifest error any such computation shall be conclusive and binding on the holders of shares of Company Common Stock. The Exchange Agent may, with the mutual agreement of Parent and the Company, make such rules as are consistent with this Section 2.03 for the implementation of the elections provided for herein as shall be necessary or desirable fully to effect such elections.

Section 2.04 Company Equity Awards .(a) At the Effective Time, each Company Stock Option then outstanding under any Company Stock Plan, whether or not then exercisable, shall be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to purchase Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.04(a). Each Company Stock Option so converted shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (acknowledging that the Company Stock Plans (other than the 1998 Independent Director Stock Option Plan) provide for accelerated vesting in connection with this Transaction) as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and any agreements thereunder immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, as of the Effective Time, (i) each unvested Company Stock Option under the 1998 Independent Director Stock Option Plan shall be fully vested and exercisable, (ii) each Company Stock Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (without regard to any adjustment provided in Section 2.01(e)), rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, and (iii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option so converted shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion of any Company Stock Options which are “incentive stock options,” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, into options to purchase Parent Common Stock shall be made so as not to constitute a “modification” of such Company Stock Options within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code.(b) At the Effective Time, each outstanding purchase right under the Company’s Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ Employee Stock Purchase Plan ”) shall be assumed by Parent in such manner that Parent is a corporation “issuing or assuming a stock option in a transaction to which Section 424(a) applies” within the meaning of the Code, and shall be converted into a right to purchase Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.04(b). Each purchase right so assumed and converted by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the documents governing the outstanding purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the purchase price of shares of Parent Common Stock and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of such purchase rights shall be adjusted in accordance with the Exchange Ratio.(c) At the Effective Time, each RSU shall vest according to its terms and as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be issued to each holder of RSUs, in complete settlement thereof, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (net of any applicable withholding) equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to RSUs credited to the holder’s account immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (without regard to any adjustment provided in Section 2.01(e)), such product to be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock.
10
(d) At the Effective Time, the forfeiture conditions on each Performance Award shall lapse according to its terms and, as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be issued to each holder of a Performance Award, in complete settlement thereof, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (net of any applicable withholding) equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon achievement of all performance goals set forth in the holder’s Performance Award multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (without regard to any adjustment provided in Section 2.01(e)), such product to be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock.(e) The Company shall take all actions necessary to terminate the Company Supplemental Retention Plan as of the Effective Time. In connection with such termination, as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be issued to each participant in the Supplemental Retention Plan, in complete settlement of such participant’s rights with respect to Supplemental Retention Units, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (net of any applicable withholding) equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to Supplemental Retention Units credited to such participant’s account immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (without regard to any adjustment provided in Section 2.01(e)), such product to be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock.(f) Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise or settlement of the Company Equity Awards being assumed or settled in accordance with this Section 2.04. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such Company Equity Awards and shall use all reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as the Company Stock Options being assumed in accordance with this Section 2.04 remain outstanding.ARTICLE III .
