WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, Leapfrog Merger Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“ Merger Sub ”), and the Company are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may from time to time be modified, supplemented or restated, the “ Merger Agreement ”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger (the “ Merger ”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein; and

 

WHEREAS, as a condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent has required that the Stockholder enter into this Agreement, and the Stockholder desires to enter into this Agreement to induce Parent to enter into the Merger Agreement.
