Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On March 8, 2018, Express Scripts Holding Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Cigna Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Cigna”), Halfmoon Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Cigna (“Holdco”), Halfmoon I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub 1”) and Halfmoon II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub 2” and, together with Merger Sub 1, the “Merger Subs”).

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Cigna will acquire the Company in a cash and stock transaction through: (a) the merger of Merger Sub 1 with and into Cigna (the “Whitman Merger”), with Cigna as the surviving entity in the Whitman Merger and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco and (b) the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into the Company (the “Emerson Merger” and, together with the Whitman Merger, the “Merger”) with the Company as the surviving entity in the Emerson Merger and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco. The Whitman Merger and Emerson Merger shall become effective concurrently (such time, the “Effective Time”). Upon the consummation of the Merger, Cigna and the Company will be direct wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdco.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, which has been approved by the boards of directors of the Company and Cigna, at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (other than shares of the Company common stock (a) held by the Company as treasury shares, (b) owned by Cigna or by direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company or Cigna (including Holdco and the Merger Subs) or (c) shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn), will be converted automatically into (i) 0.2434 of a fully paid and nonassessable share of Holdco common stock (the “Stock Consideration” and (ii) the right to receive $48.75 in cash, without interest (the “Cash Consideration” and, together with the Stock Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Holdco common stock, the “Merger Consideration”). No fractional shares of Holdco common stock will be issued in the Merger, and the Company’s stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Holdco common stock.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of Cigna common stock, par value $0.25 per share (other than shares of Cigna common stock (a) held by Cigna as treasury shares or (b) by Holdco or Merger Sub 1) will be converted automatically into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Holdco common stock.

The Merger Agreement generally provides that Company stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) (other than those held by non-employee directors) and deferred stock units that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into equivalent Holdco awards. Company performance share units that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time generally will vest at the level of performance determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors prior to closing (provided that awards granted in 2018 will vest at the maximum level of performance) and will be cancelled at the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

Company RSUs held by non-employee directors will be cancelled in exchange for a cash payment in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration.

Cigna stock options, restricted shares, RSUs, strategic performance shares and deferred stock units that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into equivalent Holdco awards.

Board of Directors of Holdco

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the board of directors of Holdco will consist of 13 directors, comprised of (a) eight independent members of Cigna’s board of directors, (b) Cigna’s chief executive officer and (c) 4 independent members of the Company’s board of directors. Within 30 days of the Merger Agreement, the Company will provide Cigna a list of the board of directors willing to serve as members of the board of directors of Holdco, and within 30 days of the delivery of such list Cigna will select from such list the 4 members of the board of directors of the Company who will serve as members of the board of directors of Holdco effective at the Effective Time.

Regulatory Efforts

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each of the Company and Cigna are required to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws to consummate the Merger and other contemplated transactions as soon as practicable. In furtherance thereof, Cigna has agreed to accept restrictions on its and the Company’s assets to the extent necessary to resolve such objections and eliminate every impediment that a governmental entity of competent jurisdiction asserts under any regulatory law, unless such restrictions would result in, or would be reasonably likely to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company, Cigna and their respective subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger, including the synergies expected to be realized from the Merger (a “Burdensome Condition”).

No Solicitation; Change of Recommendation

The Merger Agreement provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until the Effective Time, each of the Company and Cigna will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide non-public information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, subject to customary exceptions. The Company has a right to terminate the Merger Agreement (a) if the board of directors of Cigna has changed its recommendation (or resolved to effect a change in recommendation), or (b) in order to enter into an alternative acquisition agreement with respect to a Company Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Cigna has reciprocal rights to terminate the Merger Agreement.

Notwithstanding these restrictions, prior to receiving their respective stockholder approval, the board of directors of the Company may, (i) in response to a Company Intervening Event (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (ii) following receipt of a Company Superior Proposal, change its recommendation that the Company stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement. The board of directors of Cigna has reciprocal rights to change its recommendation.

Conditions

Consummation of the Merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company common stock entitled to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Cigna common stock entitled to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement, the shares of Holdco common stock to be issued in the Merger having been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, the receipt of certain necessary governmental and regulatory approvals without the imposition of a Burdensome Condition, the lack of pending litigation instituted by certain governmental entities to enjoin, restrain or prohibit the Merger, and the receipt by each of the Company and Cigna of certain tax opinions. The obligation of each of the Company and Cigna to consummate the Merger is also conditioned upon the other party’s representations and warranties being true and correct (subject to certain materiality and Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) qualifications), the other party having performed in all material respects its obligations under the Merger Agreement, in each case as set forth in the Merger Agreement. Consummation of the Merger is not subject to a financing condition.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The Company and Cigna each made certain representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among other things, covenants by the Company and Cigna to conduct their businesses in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and consummation of the Merger.

Financing

Cigna entered into a commitment letter, dated as of March 8, 2018, with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. (together, the “Banks”), pursuant to which the Banks have committed to provide, subject to the terms and conditions of the commitment letter, a $26.7 billion 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility.

Termination

The Merger Agreement provides for certain termination rights for both the Company and Cigna , including (a) the right of either party to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated by December 8, 2018 (subject to a six-month extension by either the Company or Cigna to June 8, 2019 if all closing conditions are satisfied other than the absence of a legal restraint relating to a regulatory law or the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals for the Merger) (such date, the “Termination Date”), (b) if the approval of Company or Cigna stockholders is not obtained, (c) in order to enter into a binding agreement with respect to a superior proposal, (d) if a legal restraint from specific competent jurisdictions prohibiting consummation of the Merger has become final or non-appealable or (e) if the board of directors of the other party changes its recommendation that its stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated (a) by Cigna because the Company’s board of directors changed its recommendation prior to obtaining the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, (b) by Cigna or the Company if the Company’s board of directors changed its recommendation and Company stockholders voted against adopting the Merger Agreement or (c) by the Company in order to enter into an alternative acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal that did not result from a breach of the Company’s non-solicitation obligations, then the Company must pay Cigna a fee equal to $1.6 billion (the “Company Termination Fee”). Further, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances and within 12 months after the date of such termination the Company enters into an agreement regarding a sale of a majority of the Company’s assets or equity or consummates such a sale, then the Company will be obligated to pay the Company Termination Fee concurrently with such entry or consummation. Cigna has reciprocal obligations to pay a $1.6 billion termination fee to the Company.

Additionally, in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated by either the Company or Cigna if (i) a regulatory restraint preventing consummation of the Merger has become final or non-appealable or (ii) the Merger has not been consummated on or prior to the Termination Date and at the time of such termination, the conditions to Cigna’s obligation to consummate the Merger have been satisfied other than those that relate to a regulatory restraint or a regulatory approval, Cigna may be required to pay the Company a reverse termination fee of $2.1 billion.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and Cigna contained in the Merger Agreement (a) have been made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement, (b) have been qualified by (i) the matters specifically disclosed in certain of the Company’s and Cigna’s filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and (ii) confidential disclosures made in the disclosure schedules delivered in connection with the Merger Agreement, (c) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Merger Agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (d) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Merger Agreement and (e) have been included in the Merger Agreement for the purpose

of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company, Cigna or their respective affiliates or businesses, including Holdco and the Merger Subs. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties or covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, Cigna or any of their respective affiliates, including Holdco and the Merger Subs. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties or covenants may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s, Cigna’s or Holdco’s public disclosures.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On March 7, 2018 and effective on the same date, the Company’s Board of Directors amended the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaw Amendment”). The Bylaw Amendment adopts a forum selection clause, designating the Delaware Court of Chancery (or in some cases, other state or federal courts in Delaware) as the sole and exclusive forum for certain proceedings relating to the Company.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bylaw Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.

(c) Each of Parent and the Company shall designate a single representative who shall be responsible for managing and approving requests for waivers of or exemptions from the covenants set forth in this Section 6.1 or Section 5.1 (the “Designated Representatives”), as applicable, on behalf of Parent or the Company, as applicable. All such requests for waiver or exemptions shall be submitted to the other party’s Designated Representative. Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to each such request through their Designated Representative. Any disputes arising in connection with such requests for waivers or exemptions which cannot be resolved between the Designated Representatives shall be referred to the respective General Counsels of Parent and the Company.

Section 6.2 Employee Benefits.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Holdco shall, and Holdco shall cause the Emerson Surviving Corporation to, honor all Company Benefit Plans and compensation arrangements and agreements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prohibit Holdco from amending or terminating any Company Benefit Plan to the extent permitted by the terms of such Company Benefit Plan. For the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2019 (the “Benefit Continuation Period”), Holdco agrees to provide each employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time (each, a “Continuing Company Employee”), while such Continuing Company Employee remains employed by Holdco or any of its Subsidiaries (including, after the Effective Time, the Emerson Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries), with (i) a base salary or base wage rate and, if applicable, annual cash incentive opportunity, at a level no lower than the base salary or base wage rate and, if applicable, annual cash incentive opportunity, in effect for the applicable Continuing Company Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) Total Aggregate Benefits (as defined below) on terms no less favorable than the Total Aggregate Benefits provided to the applicable Continuing Company Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 6.2(a),

- 61 -

“Total Aggregate Benefits” means employee welfare and retirement benefits (other than severance benefits), collectively. Upon a termination by the Company, Holdco or any Subsidiary of a Continuing Company Employee’s employment under severance qualifying circumstances during the Benefit Continuation Period, such Continuing Company Employee shall be eligible to receive cash severance pay in an amount equal to the cash severance pay for which such Continuing Company Employee would have been eligible under the Company Benefit Plan which is a severance plan (as identified on Section 6.2(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) applicable to such Continuing Company Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to the Continuing Company Employee’s execution without revocation of a release of claims in favor of Parent and its Affiliates and satisfaction of any other eligibility requirements set forth in such plan as in effect on the date hereof.

(b) If the Effective Time occurs on or prior to December 31, 2018, the Company may, but is not required to, pay immediately prior to the Closing to each Continuing Company Employee (including the Company’s executive officers) who participates in the Company’s Employee Annual Bonus Plan (the “Company Incentive Plan”) and who is then in good standing (as determined by the Company in its discretion) a cash bonus in respect of such plan year in an amount equal to two hundred percent (200)% of the Continuing Company Employee’s target bonus award under the Company Incentive Plan for 2018 (without pro-ration other than with respect to new hires and mid-year changes to bonus targets). If the Effective Time occurs on or after January 1, 2019, the Company may, but is not required to, pay immediately prior to the Closing to each Continuing Company Employee who participates in the Company Incentive Plan and who is then in good standing (as determined by the Company in its discretion), a pro-rata cash bonus in respect of such plan year, in an amount equal to (i) the cash bonus amount payable to such Continuing Company Employee under the Company Incentive Plan based on the actual level of achievement of the applicable performance criteria for such plan year measured through the latest practicable date prior to the Closing Date, with such level of achievement conclusively determined, in good faith, by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company in the ordinary course of business (other than as to timing) and consistent with past practice prior to the Closing, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed from January 1, 2019 through the day prior to the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is 365. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a bonus or pro-rata bonus is to be paid by the Company under this Section 6.2(b), any Continuing Company Employee who is party to an executive employment agreement, covered by the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan, or covered by or party to any other Company Benefit Plan that provides for a full or prorated bonus upon termination of employment or a change in control, shall not be entitled to receive a full or prorated bonus under such agreement or plan in respect of the 2018 plan year or the applicable portion of the 2019 plan year, and the Company shall effectuate the foregoing through either an amendment to such agreement or plan, or receipt of a waiver from the impacted Continuing Company Employee, as a condition to payment of the bonus payout described in this Section 6.2(b), and Holdco will be provided with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on each such amendment or waiver in advance and the Company shall consider Holdco’s comments in good faith. In addition, notwithstanding Section 6.2(a) hereof, (i) if a bonus is paid by the Company to a Continuing Company Employee pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.2(b) with respect to the 2018 plan year, Holdco shall not be obligated to provide an annual cash incentive opportunity or pay a bonus for 2018 to any such Continuing Company Employee, and (ii) if a pro-rata bonus is paid by the Company to

- 62 -

a Continuing Company Employee pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 6.2(b) with respect to the applicable portion of the 2019 plan year, Holdco shall not be obligated to provide an annual cash incentive opportunity or pay a bonus to any such Continuing Company Employee with respect to the portion of the 2019 plan year ending prior to the Closing Date.

(c) With respect to any Company Benefit Plan, Parent Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan sponsored by Holdco, in each case, in which any Continuing Company Employee first becomes eligible to participate on or after the Effective Time (collectively, the “New Plans”), each Continuing Company Employee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, receive full credit for the years of continuous service by such Continuing Company Employee recognized by the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time pursuant to a corresponding Company Benefit Plan to the same extent as if it were service with Parent for all purposes other than (i) for purposes of retiree medical plans or for purposes of benefit accrual under defined benefit pension plans, (ii) where such credit would result in a duplication of benefits, (iii) where such service was not recognized under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan or no corresponding Company Benefit Plan existed or (iv) for purposes of any benefit plan that is a frozen plan or provides grandfathered benefits. With respect to any New Plan that is a welfare benefit plan in which any Continuing Company Employees first become eligible to participate on or after the Effective Time, Holdco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) cause to be waived any eligibility requirements or pre-existing condition limitations except to the extent such eligibility requirements or pre-existing conditions would apply under the analogous Company Benefit Plan in which any such Continuing Company Employee was a participant or eligible to participate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) give effect, in determining any deductibles, co-insurance or maximum out of pocket limitations, to amounts paid by such Continuing Company Employees prior to the Effective Time under a Company Benefit Plan in which any such Continuing Company Employee was a participant as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (to the same extent that such credit was given under such Company Benefit Plan prior to the Effective Time) in satisfying such requirements during the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs. If employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time become eligible to participate in New Plans (other than existing Parent Benefit Plans) after the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 6.2(c) shall apply to such employees in the same manner as such provisions apply to Continuing Company Employees.

(d) Prior to making any broad-based communication or written communications pertaining to compensation or benefit matters that are affected by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any schedules hereto), the Company shall provide Parent with a copy of the intended communication, Parent shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on the communication, and Parent and the Company shall cooperate in providing any such mutually agreeable communication.

(e) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (and in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof), the Company shall provide Parent the following: (i) with respect to each material Company Benefit Plan, to the extent applicable, (A) the most recent determination letter received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from the IRS regarding the tax-qualified status of such Company Benefit Plan; (B) the most recent financial statements for such Company Benefit Plan; (C) the most recent actuarial valuation report; (D) the

- 63 -

current summary plan description and any summaries of material modifications; and (E) Form 5500 Annual Returns/Reports, together with all schedules thereto, for the most recent plan year; and (ii) complete copies of the calculations prepared for purposes of Section 280G of the Code for employees with a pay grade of M3 or higher and/or who are executive officers and the related supporting data. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (and in no event later than ninety (90) days after the date hereof), the Company shall provide Parent with complete copies of the calculations prepared for purposes of Section 280G of the Code for employees with a pay grade below M3 who are reasonably expected to be “disqualified individuals” for purposes of Section 280G of the Code.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 6.2 or any other provision of this Agreement, express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, including any Company Benefit Plan or any Parent Benefit Plan, (ii) shall alter or limit the ability of any of Holdco, the Whitman Surviving Corporation, the Emerson Surviving Corporation, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, (iii) is intended to confer upon any current or former employee any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment, or (iv) is intended to confer upon any Person (including for the avoidance of doubt any current or former employee, director, officer or other service provider or any participant in a Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement) any right as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Section 6.3 Indemnification Continuation.

(a) For purposes of this Section 6.3, (i) “Whitman Indemnified Person” shall mean any person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the Effective Time, (x) an officer or director of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or (y) serving at the request of Parent as an officer or director of or in any similar capacity with another corporation, joint venture or other enterprise or general partner of any partnership or a trustee of any trust, (ii) “Emerson Indemnified Person” shall mean any person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the Effective Time, (x) an officer or director of or in any similar capacity with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (y) serving at the request of the Company as an officer or director of another corporation, joint venture or other enterprise or general partner of any partnership or a trustee of any trust and (iii) “Proceeding” shall mean any claim, demand, action, suit, proceeding, subpoena or investigation.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Holdco shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify each Whitman Indemnified Person and each Emerson Indemnified Person in connection with any Proceeding based directly or indirectly (in whole or in part) on, or arising directly or indirectly (in whole or in part) out of, the fact that such Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person is or was an officer or director of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (in the case of such Whitman Indemnified Person) or an officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (in the case of such Emerson Indemnified Person), or is or was serving at the request of Parent (in the case of such Whitman Indemnified Person) or the Company (in the case of such Emerson Indemnified Person) as an officer or director of or in any similar capacity with another

- 64 -

corporation, joint venture or other enterprise or general partner of any partnership or a trustee of any trust, whether pertaining to any matter arising before or after the Effective Time. In the event of any such Proceeding, each Whitman Indemnified Person and each Emerson Indemnified Person will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such Proceeding from Holdco within a reasonable period of time following receipt by Holdco from such Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person of a request therefor; provided that a Whitman Indemnified Person or an Emerson Indemnified Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking (only to the extent required by the DGCL) to repay Holdco for any expenses incurred by Holdco in connection with the indemnification of such Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 6.3 if it is ultimately determined that such Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person did not meet the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification as set forth in the Parent Organizational Documents (in the case of such Whitman Indemnified Person) or the Company Organizational Documents (in the case of such Emerson Indemnified Person). For six years from the Effective Time, the Whitman Surviving Corporation and the Emerson Surviving Corporation shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of Parent’s, the Company’s or any of their respective Subsidiaries’ certificates of incorporation or by-laws or similar organizational documents as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person. In the event that Holdco, the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Holdco, the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation (as applicable) shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of Holdco, the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation (as applicable) assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.3, unless such assumption occurs by operation of Law.

(c) Holdco shall cause the Whitman Surviving Corporation and the Emerson Surviving Corporation to, and the Whitman Surviving Corporation and the Emerson Surviving Corporation shall, maintain in effect for six years from the Effective Time, Parent’s (in the case of the Whitman Surviving Corporation) and the Company’s (in the case of the Emerson Surviving Corporation) current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies covering acts or omissions occurring (or alleged to occur) prior to or at the Effective Time with respect to Whitman Indemnified Persons or Emerson Indemnified Persons; provided, however, that in no event shall the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation be required to expend pursuant to this Section 6.3(c) more than an amount per year equal to 450% of current annual premiums paid by Parent (in the case of the Whitman Surviving Corporation) or the Company (in the case of the Emerson Surviving Corporation) for such insurance. In the event that, but for the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation would be required to expend more than 450% of current annual premiums, the Whitman Surviving Corporation or the Emerson Surviving Corporation (as applicable) shall obtain the maximum amount of such insurance obtainable by payment of annual premiums equal to 450% of current annual premiums. In lieu of the foregoing, Parent may purchase at or prior to the Effective Time, and the Company, in consultation with, and with the consent of, Parent, may (and at the request of Parent, the

- 65 -

Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to) purchase at or prior to the Effective Time, and/or Holdco may purchase following the Effective Time, a six-year “tail” prepaid officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each such Whitman Indemnified Person or Emerson Indemnified Person (as applicable) for an amount not to exceed 450% of current annual premiums. If such “tail” policy has been established by Parent or the Company, Holdco shall not terminate such policy and shall cause all obligations of Parent or the Company thereunder to be honored by the Whitman Surviving Corporation and the Emerson Surviving Corporation (as applicable).

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.3 shall survive the consummation of the Merger for a period of six years and are expressly intended to benefit each of the Whitman Indemnified Persons and the Emerson Indemnified Persons; provided, however, that in the event that any claim or claims for indemnification are asserted or made within such six-year period, all rights to indemnification in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue until disposition of any and all such claims.

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES

Section 7.1 Preparation of Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Registration Statement; Stockholder Meetings.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall cooperate in preparing the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the registration statement on Form S-4 (and any amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to which shares of Holdco Common Stock issuable in the Merger will be registered with the SEC (the “Registration Statement”) (in which the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be included), and shall cause Holdco to file the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Registration Statement with the SEC. Each of Holdco, Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as soon after such filing as practicable, to ensure that the Registration Statement complies in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger. The Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include the Company Recommendation, the Parent Recommendation, and the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company and of the Board of Directors of Parent in favor of approval of any resolution required by Rule 14a-21(c) under the Exchange Act to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement pursuant to Item 402(t) of Regulation S-K, and the Parent Recommendation, except to the extent there has been a Company Change in Recommendation permitted by Section 7.4 (in the case of the Company Recommendation) or there has been a Parent Change in Recommendation permitted by Section 7.5 (in the case of the Parent Recommendation). Each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to its respective stockholders as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement becomes effective. The parties shall promptly provide copies of any written comments received from the SEC with respect to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Registration Statement and promptly advise one another of any

- 66 -

oral comments received from the SEC. Prior to filing the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or mailing the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, each of the Company and Parent shall cooperate and provide the other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response in advance (including the proposed final version of such document or response), except to the extent such disclosures relate to a Company Acquisition Proposal or a Parent Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Holdco, Parent and the Company shall make all necessary filings with respect to the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and applicable “blue sky” laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

No amendment or supplement to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement shall be filed without the approval of both parties hereto, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that with respect to documents filed by a party which are incorporated by reference in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement, this right of approval shall apply only with respect to information relating to the other party or such other party’s business, financial condition or results of operations. If at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Parent or the Company that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company and Parent.

In connection with such meeting, the Company (i) subject to Section 7.4, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Required Company Vote and otherwise comply with all legal requirements applicable to such meeting and (ii) shall not submit any other proposal (other than matters of procedure and matters required by Law to be voted on by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby and, if the Company Stockholders Meeting is also the Company’s annual stockholders meeting, proposals customarily brought in connection with the Company’s annual stockholders meeting) to Company stockholders in connection with the Company Stockholders Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company reasonably believes that (i) it is necessary to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the

- 67 -

Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus is provided to the stockholders of the Company within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders Meeting or (ii) (A) the Company will not receive proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock to obtain the Required Company Vote, whether or not a quorum is present, or (B) the Company will not have a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders Meeting, the Company shall have the right to, and shall upon request by Parent, on one or more occasions postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting for the minimum duration necessary to remedy the circumstances giving rise to such adjournment or postponement and not more than an aggregate of 40 days (in the case of clause (ii) of this sentence) or 10 days (in the case of clause (i) of this sentence).

(d) Parent shall cause the Parent Stockholders Meeting to be duly called and held as soon as reasonably practicable for the purpose of obtaining the Required Parent Vote. In connection with such meeting, Parent (i) subject to Section 7.5, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Required Parent Vote and otherwise comply with all legal requirements applicable to such meeting and (ii) shall not submit any other proposal (other than matters of procedure and matters required by Law to be voted on by Parent’s stockholders in connection with the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby and, if the Parent Stockholders Meeting is also Parent’s annual stockholders meeting, proposals customarily brought in connection with Parent’s annual stockholders meeting) to Parent stockholders in connection with the Parent Stockholders Meeting without the prior written consent of the Company.

Section 7.2 Access to Information.

Upon reasonable notice, each of Parent and the Company shall (and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to) afford to the other party hereto and its representatives (including Financing Parties and their Representatives) reasonable access during normal business hours, during the period prior to the Effective Time, to all its officers, employees, properties, offices, plants and other facilities and to all books and records, including financial statements, other financial data and monthly financial statements within the time such statements are customarily prepared, and, during such period, each of Parent and the Company shall (and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to) furnish promptly to the other party hereto and its representatives (including Financing Parties and their Representatives), consistent with its legal obligations, all

- 68 -

other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such Person may reasonably request; provided, however, that either party hereto may restrict the foregoing access to the extent that, in such Person’s reasonable judgment, (i) providing such access would result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege (provided that the withholding party shall use reasonable best efforts to allow for such access to the maximum extent that does not result in a waiver of attorney-client privilege), in the disclosure of any trade secrets of third parties or violate any of its obligations with respect to confidentiality (provided that the withholding party shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain any required consent of any such third party to such access), or (ii) any Law of any Governmental Entity applicable to such Person requires such Person or its Subsidiaries to preclude the other party and its representatives from gaining access to any properties or information; provided, further, that the withholding party will inform the requesting party of the general nature of the document or information being withheld and reasonably cooperate with the requesting party to provide such document or information in a manner that would not result in violation of Law or the loss or waiver of such privilege. No investigation by a party or its representatives shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive the representations and warranties of the other party set forth in this Agreement. Each party hereto will hold any such information that is non-public in confidence to the extent required by, and in accordance with, the provisions of that certain agreement, dated December 21, 2017 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), between the Company and Parent; provided, however, that competitive sensitively information may be provided only to a limited subset of the other party’s personnel or representatives, as the case may be, pursuant to customary “clean room” procedures.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable after the date hereof and in any event no later than the Termination Date, including using reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the Termination Date (i) preparing and filing, in consultation with the other party and as promptly as practicable and advisable after the date hereof, all documentation to effect all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings, and other documents and to obtain as promptly as practicable all waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, exemptions, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations necessary or advisable to be obtained from any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) taking all steps as may be necessary to obtain all such waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, exemptions, licenses, registrations, permits, authorizations, orders and approvals. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, (A) each party hereto agrees to make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the execution of this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, and to substantially comply as promptly as practicable with any “second request” for additional information and documentary material under the HSR Act and to take all other actions necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under

- 69 -

the HSR Act as soon as practicable, and (B) Parent agrees to file or cause to be filed within 45 days following the execution of this Agreement “Form A” statements or equivalent change of control applications (or, as reasonably determined by Parent, “Form A” exemption requests or equivalent exemption requests) with the insurance commissioners or regulators or departments of health or other Governmental Entities in each jurisdiction where required by applicable Law; provided, however, to the extent that subsequent to the filing of any such “Form A” exemption request or equivalent exemption request it becomes reasonably apparent that such exemption request is reasonably unlikely to be granted in a timely manner, Parent shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, withdraw such exemption request and file in substitution thereof a “Form A” statement or equivalent change of control application with the applicable Governmental Entity.

(b) Each of Parent and the Company shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in Section 7.3(a) to obtain all waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, exemptions, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Law (as defined below) or from any Governmental Entity, (i) cooperate in all respects and consult with each other in connection with any communication, filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, including by allowing the other party and/or its counsel to have a reasonable opportunity to review in advance and comment on drafts of any communications, filings and submissions (and documents submitted therewith) and considering in good faith any such comments; (ii) promptly inform the other party of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), any other Governmental Entity or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other person, including by promptly providing copies to the other party of any such written communications, and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iii) where legally permissible, permit the other party to review any communication it gives to, and consult with each other in advance of any substantive meeting, telephone call, or conference with, the DOJ, the FTC, or such other Governmental Entity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to all matters set forth in Section 7.3(a)) or other person (provided that materials may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of Parent, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements in effect prior to the date hereof, and (C) as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns), and allow the other party and/or its counsel to attend and participate at any such meeting, telephone call or conference (whether in person or by telephone). Parent and the Company may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material to be provided to the other under this Section 7.3(b) as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. For purposes of this Agreement, “Regulatory Law” means the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the HSR Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, Laws relating to the Healthcare Regulatory Approvals, and all other national, federal or state, domestic or foreign, if

- 70 -

any, statutes, rules, regulations, orders, decrees, administrative and judicial doctrines and other Laws that are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade, affecting competition or market conditions through merger, acquisition or other transaction or effectuating foreign investment.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including this Section 7.3, Parent and the Company (if requested by Parent), along with their respective Subsidiaries, shall use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken any and all steps and to make or cause to be made any and all undertakings necessary (x) to resolve such objections, if any, that a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction asserts under any Regulatory Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (y) to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any applicable Regulatory Law asserted by any such Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case to the extent necessary so as to enable the Closing to occur no later than the Termination Date, which reasonable best efforts shall include (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, disposition, license or other disposition of any Subsidiaries, operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, contracts, customers or assets of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), (ii) taking or committing to take such other actions that may limit or impact Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ (including the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’) freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ (including the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’) operations, divisions, businesses, products lines, contracts, customers or assets, (iii) entering into any orders, settlements, undertakings, contracts, consent decrees, stipulations or other agreements to effectuate any of the foregoing or in order to vacate, lift, reverse, overturn, settle or otherwise resolve any order that prevents, prohibits, restricts or delays the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, in any case, that may be issued by any court or other Governmental Entity, and (iv) creating, terminating or divesting relationships, contractual rights or obligations of the Company, Parent or their respective Subsidiaries, and (v) forfeiting or non-continuing any Company License and Permit or Parent License and Permit (including withdrawing or being compelled to withdraw from an applicable jurisdiction or being subject to any suspension of a Company License and Permit or Parent License and Permit), in each case in connection with obtaining all, or eliminating any requirement to obtain any, waiting period expirations or terminations, consents, clearances, waivers, exemptions, licenses, orders, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Law or from any Governmental Entity so as to enable to the Closing to occur no later than the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not, unless requested to do so by Parent, commit to or effect any action contemplated in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of Parent, Holdco or the other Subsidiaries of Parent shall be required to, and none of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall, without the prior written consent of Parent, take any action, or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition or limitation contemplated in this Section 7.3 that is not conditioned on the consummation of the Merger or that would result in, or would be reasonably likely to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger, including the synergies expected to be realized from the Merger (a “Burdensome Condition”).

- 71 -

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 7.3, if any administrative or judicial action or proceeding by a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction is instituted challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) oppose fully and vigorously, including by defending through litigation, any such action or proceeding, (ii) pursue vigorously all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal and (iii) seek to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order that is in effect that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that none of Parent, Holdco or a Subsidiary of Parent shall be required to, and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, take any action under this Section 7.3(d) that would result in, or would be reasonably likely to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Burdensome Condition. To assist Parent in complying with its obligations set forth in this Section 7.3, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to Parent such cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Parent.

(e) Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the expiration or termination of all waiting periods and all consents, waivers, authorizations and approvals of all third parties, including Governmental Entities (except those related to Regulatory Laws, which shall be governed by the other subsections of this Section 7.3), necessary, proper or advisable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to provide any notices to third parties required to be provided prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be required to, and without the prior written consent of Parent the Company and its Subsidiaries will not, grant or offer to grant any accommodation or concession (financial or otherwise), or make any payment, to any third party in connection with seeking or obtaining its consent to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, obtaining the consents described in the first sentence of this Section 7.3(e) is not a condition to the obligation of any party hereto to effect the Merger except to the extent set forth in Section 8.1(d).

(f) The parties shall jointly develop, consult and cooperate with one another regarding, the strategy for obtaining any necessary approval of, or responding to any request from, inquiry by, or investigation by (including directing the timing, nature and substance of all such responses), any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including determining the timing and content of any registrations, filings, agreements, forms, notices, petitions, statements, submissions of information, applications and other documents, communications and correspondence contemplated by, made in accordance with, or subject to this Section 7.3; provided, if the parties cannot agree on a jointly developed strategy, notwithstanding their respective good faith attempts to do so, Parent shall have the final say with respect to the strategy. Parent shall have the final authority to direct and implement (or direct the implementation by the Company of) the regulatory strategy; provided, however, that Parent will consult with the Company and consider in good faith the views of the Company in advance of making any decisions with respect to such strategy.

The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly request any Person that has executed a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement in connection with any actual or potential Company Acquisition Proposal to return or destroy all confidential information in the possession of such person or its representatives. The Company shall promptly inform its representatives and advisors of the Company’s obligations under this Section 7.4. Any violation of this Section 7.4 by any representative or advisor of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.4 by the Company. For purposes of this Section 7.4 and Section 7.5, the term “Person” means any person, corporation, entity or “group,” as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, other than, with respect to the Company, Parent or any Subsidiaries of Parent and, with respect to Parent, the Company.

“Company Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, written Company Acquisition Proposal (A) that if consummated would result in a third party (or in the case of a direct merger between such third party and the Company, the stockholders of such third party) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than 50.1% of the outstanding Company Common Stock or more than 50.1% of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as measured by fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company), taken as a whole, (B) that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory, timing and other aspects of such proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the person making such Company Acquisition Proposal and (C) that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel (taking into account any changes to this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such Company Acquisition Proposal and all financial, legal, regulatory, timing and other aspects of such Company Acquisition Proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the person making such Company Acquisition Proposal) is more favorable to the stockholders of the Company than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors of the Company (A) may make a Company Change in Recommendation at any time prior to the receipt of the Required Company Vote (x) in response to a Company Intervening Event, or (y) following receipt after the date of this Agreement of an unsolicited bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from or arise out of a breach of this Section 7.4 and which the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is a Company Superior Proposal, in the case of each of (x) and (y), if and only if the Board of Directors of the Company has first determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law and the Company first complies with Section 7.4(d) or (B) at any time prior to the receipt of the Required Company Vote and following receipt of an unsolicited bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from or arise out of a breach of this Section 7.4 and which the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is a Company Superior Proposal, may terminate this Agreement for the purpose of entering into a definitive acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar definitive agreement (a “Company Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) with respect to such Company Superior Proposal, if and only if the Board of Directors of the Company has first determined in

- 75 -

good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law and the Company first complies with Section 7.4(d) and concurrently with entering into a Company Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Company Superior Proposal, (1) the Company terminates this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(g) and (2) the Company pays the Company Termination Fee in accordance with Section 9.2(f).

(d) Prior to the Company making a Company Change in Recommendation pursuant to Section 7.4(c)(A)(x), the Company shall provide Parent with five Business Days’ prior written notice advising Parent it intends to effect a Company Change in Recommendation and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and, during such five Business Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall engage in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement in a manner that would make the failure to effect a Company Change in Recommendation no longer inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law and, following the end of such notice period, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent, and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. Prior to the Company making a Company Change in Recommendation pursuant to Section 7.4(c)(A)(y) or terminating this Agreement as described in Section 7.4(c)(B), the Company shall provide Parent with five Business Days’ prior written notice (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the amount or form of consideration payable in connection with the applicable Company Acquisition Proposal and any material amendment to any other term of the applicable Company Acquisition Proposal shall require a new notice and an additional three Business Day period) advising Parent that the Board of Directors of the Company intends to take such action, and specifying the material terms and conditions of, and including a copy of any transaction documents relating to, the Company Superior Proposal and that the Company shall, during such five Business Day period (or any subsequent three Business Day period), negotiate in good faith with Parent to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that such Company Acquisition Proposal would no longer constitute a Company Superior Proposal and, following the end of such notice period, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent, and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law and that the Company Acquisition Proposal would continue to constitute a Company Superior Proposal if the revisions proposed by Parent were given effect.

(e) The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) after receipt or occurrence of any Company Acquisition Proposal, or any request for information that is reasonably likely to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, of (i) the material terms and conditions of any such Company Acquisition Proposal and (ii) the identity of the Person making any such Company Acquisition Proposal. In addition, the Company shall promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) after the receipt thereof, provide to Parent copies of

- 76 -

any Company Acquisition Proposal and any written documentation setting forth the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal which is received by the Company from or expressly on behalf of the Person making such Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of any existing standstill or confidentiality agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, and the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, enforce the provisions of any such agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be permitted to fail to enforce any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation of any third party if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. The Company shall keep Parent informed on a current basis of the status and material details (including any amendments or proposed amendments) of any such Company Acquisition Proposal and keep Parent informed as to the material details of all discussions or negotiations with respect to any such Company Acquisition Proposal and shall provide to Parent within 24 hours after receipt thereof all copies of any other documentation received setting forth the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal by the Company from the Person (or expressly on behalf of any representatives, advisors or agents of such Person) making such Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall provide to Parent any material non-public information concerning the Company prior to or concurrently with providing such information to any other Person in connection with any Company Acquisition Proposal, to the extent such information was not previously provided to Parent. The Board of Directors of the Company shall promptly consider in good faith (in consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) any proposed alteration of the terms of this Agreement or the Merger proposed by Parent in response to any Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall not take any action to exempt any Person from the restrictions on “business combinations” contained in any applicable Law or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply. The Company agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement which prohibits by its terms the Company from providing any information to Parent under, or otherwise complying with the terms of, this Section 7.4.

(c) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 7.5(c), the Board of Directors of Parent shall not (i) change, withdraw, modify, qualify, withhold or amend in any manner adverse to the Company the Parent Recommendation (or publicly propose to do so), (ii) approve, declare advisable or recommend (or publicly propose to do so) any Parent Acquisition Proposal, (iii) fail to include the Parent Recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, (iv) make or publicly propose to make any recommendation in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer other than a recommendation against such offer or a customary “stop, look and listen” communication by the Board of Directors of Parent (it being understood that the Board of Directors of Parent may refrain from taking a position with respect to such a tender offer or exchange offer until the close of business as of the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer without such action being considered a Parent Change in Recommendation so long as Parent publicly reaffirms the Parent Recommendation during such period) or (v) after receipt of any Parent Acquisition Proposal, other than with respect to the period of up to ten (10) Business Days applicable to tender or exchange offers that are the subject of the preceding clause (iv), fail to publicly reaffirm the Parent Recommendation or fail to recommend against a Parent Acquisition Proposal within five (5) Business Days after a request by the Company to do so (provided, that the Company may make no more than two (2) such requests for each Parent Acquisition Proposal) (provided that

- 79 -

the Company may make an additional one (1) request for each modification to any Parent Acquisition Proposal) (it being agreed that neither the delivery of a notice described in Section 7.5(d) by Parent nor any public announcement thereof shall constitute a Parent Change in Recommendation) (any of (i) through (v) a “Parent Change in Recommendation”) or (vi) authorize, cause or permit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, agreement, commitment or agreement in principle providing for any Parent Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with Section 7.5(a)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors of Parent (A) may make a Parent Change in Recommendation at any time prior to the receipt of the Required Parent Vote (x) in response to a Parent Intervening Event, or (y) following receipt after the date of this Agreement of an unsolicited bona fide written Parent Acquisition Proposal that did not result from or arise out of a breach of this Section 7.5 and which the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is a Parent Superior Proposal, in the case of each of (x) and (y), if and only if the Board of Directors of Parent has first determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law and Parent first complies with Section 7.5(d) or (B) at any time prior to the receipt of the Required Parent Vote and following receipt of an unsolicited bona fide written Parent Acquisition Proposal that did not result from or arise out of a breach of this Section 7.5 and which the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, is a Parent Superior Proposal, may terminate this Agreement for the purpose of entering into a definitive acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar definitive agreement (a “Parent Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) with respect to such Parent Superior Proposal, if and only if the Board of Directors of Parent has first determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law and Parent first complies with Section 7.5(d) and concurrently with entering into a Parent Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Parent Superior Proposal, (1) Parent terminates this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(h) and (2) Parent pays the Parent Termination Fee in accordance with Section 9.2(g).

(d) Prior to Parent making a Parent Change in Recommendation pursuant to Section 7.5(c)(A)(x), Parent shall provide the Company with five Business Days’ prior written notice advising the Company it intends to effect a Parent Change in Recommendation and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and, during such five Business Day period, if requested by the Company, Parent shall engage in good faith negotiations with the Company to amend the terms of this Agreement in a manner that would make the failure to effect a Parent Change in Recommendation no longer inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law and, following the end of such notice period, the Board of Directors of Parent shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Company, and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law. Prior to Parent making a Parent Change in Recommendation pursuant to Section 7.5(c)(A)(y) or terminating this Agreement as described in Section 7.5(c)(B), Parent shall provide the Company with five Business Days’ prior written

- 80 -

notice (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the amount or form of consideration payable in connection with the applicable Parent Acquisition Proposal and any material amendment to any other term of the applicable Parent Acquisition Proposal shall require a new notice and an additional three Business Day period) advising the Company that the Board of Directors of Parent intends to take such action, and specifying the material terms and conditions of, and including a copy of any transaction documents relating to, the Parent Superior Proposal and that Parent shall, during such five Business Day period (or any subsequent three Business Day period), negotiate in good faith with the Company to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that such Parent Acquisition Proposal would no longer constitute a Parent Superior Proposal and, following the end of such notice period, the Board of Directors of Parent shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Company, and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law and that the Parent Acquisition Proposal would continue to constitute a Parent Superior Proposal if the revisions proposed by the Company were given effect.

(e) Parent shall notify the Company promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) after receipt or occurrence of any Parent Acquisition Proposal, or any request for information that is reasonably likely to lead to a Parent Acquisition Proposal, of (i) the material terms and conditions of any such Parent Acquisition Proposal and (ii) the identity of the Person making any such Parent Acquisition Proposal. In addition, Parent shall promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) after the receipt thereof, provide to the Company copies of any Parent Acquisition Proposal and any written documentation setting forth the terms of such Parent Acquisition Proposal which is received by Parent from or expressly on behalf of the Person making such Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of any existing standstill or confidentiality agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, enforce the provisions of any such agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent shall be permitted to fail to enforce any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation of any third party if the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of Parent to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Law. Parent shall keep the Company informed on a current basis of the status and material details (including any amendments or proposed amendments) of any such Parent Acquisition Proposal and keep the Company informed as to the material details of all discussions or negotiations with respect to any such Parent Acquisition Proposal and shall provide to the Company within 24 hours after receipt thereof all copies of any other documentation received setting forth the terms of such Parent Acquisition Proposal by Parent from the Person (or expressly on behalf of any representatives, advisors or agents of such Person) making such Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall provide to the Company any material non-public information concerning Parent prior to or concurrently with providing such information to any other Person in connection with any Parent Acquisition Proposal, to the extent such information was not previously provided to the Company. The Board of Directors of Parent shall promptly consider in good faith (in consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) any proposed alteration of the

- 81 -

terms of this Agreement or the Merger proposed by the Company in response to any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall not take any action to exempt any Person from the restrictions on “business combinations” contained in any applicable Law or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply. Parent agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement which prohibits by its terms Parent from providing any information to the Company under, or otherwise complying with the terms of, this Section 7.5.

Section 7.6 Stockholder Litigation.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall provide Parent with prompt notice of any stockholder litigation or claim against the Company and/or its directors or officers relating to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Company Transaction Litigation”) (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto). The Company shall control the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Company Transaction Litigation, and the Company shall consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Company Transaction Litigation and shall consider in good faith Parent’s advice with respect to such Company Transaction Litigation. The Company may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or offer or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Company Transaction Litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, if any Company Transaction Litigation continues after the Effective Time, the Company’s pre-Effective Time directors and officers may continue to retain the same counsel engaged prior to the Effective Time with respect thereto.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall provide the Company with prompt notice of any stockholder litigation or claim against Parent and/or its directors or officers relating to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Parent Transaction Litigation”) (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto). Parent shall control the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Parent Transaction Litigation, and Parent shall consult with the Company with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Parent Transaction Litigation and shall consider in good faith the Company’s advice with respect to such Parent Transaction Litigation. Parent may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or offer or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Parent Transaction Litigation without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If any litigation or claim meets the definition of both Company Transaction Litigation and Parent Transaction Litigation, it shall be treated as Parent Transaction Litigation, unless such litigation or claim against Parent and/or its directors or officers is only with respect to aiding and abetting or similar theories, in which case such litigation or claim shall be treated as Company Transaction Litigation.

Section 7.7 Public Announcements. Each of the Company, Parent, Holdco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 agrees that no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party without the prior written consent of the Company and Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of

- 82 -

any applicable United States securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, it being understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement, to the extent so required, shall be at the final discretion of the disclosing party; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any public release or announcement so long as the statements contained therein concerning the transactions contemplated hereby are substantially similar to previous releases or announcements made by the applicable party with respect to which such party has complied with the provisions of this sentence.

Section 7.8 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Holdco, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) or Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of Holdco Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Holdco Common Stock) resulting from the Merger by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Parent or the Company or will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Holdco, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 7.9 Tax Matters.

(a) The parties intend that (i) the Merger qualify as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code and (ii) the Whitman Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Each of Holdco, Parent and the Company will (and will cause its Subsidiaries to) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify, and will not take or knowingly fail to take any action (and will cause its Subsidiaries not to take or knowingly fail to take any action) which action or failure to act could reasonably be expected to impede or prevent the Merger from qualifying, as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code. Each of Holdco, Parent and the Company will (and will cause its Subsidiaries to) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Whitman Merger to qualify, and will not take or knowingly fail to take any action (and will cause its Subsidiaries not to take or knowingly fail to take any action) which action or failure to act could reasonably be expected to impede or prevent the Whitman Merger from qualifying, as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Section 7.11 Financing.

(a) Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary to consummate the Financing or any Substitute Financing in an amount sufficient, together with cash on hand that replaces or supplements the Financing consistent with the terms set forth in this Section 7.11, to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (including the payment of the Cash Consideration, any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article I and any other fees and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby) no later than the Closing, including, to the extent necessary to consummate the Merger and such other transactions, using reasonable best efforts to (i) (A) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter and in all material respects comply with all of their respective obligations thereunder and (B) negotiate, enter into and deliver definitive agreements with respect to the Financing reflecting the terms contained in the Commitment Letter (or with other terms agreed by Parent and the Financing Parties, subject to the restrictions on amendments of the Commitment Letter set forth below), so that such agreements are in effect no later than the Closing, and (ii) satisfying on a timely basis all the conditions to the Financing and the definitive agreements related thereto that are in Parent’s (or its Subsidiaries’) control. In the event that all conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied or waived or, upon funding of the Financing, shall have been satisfied or waived, Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to cause the Persons providing the Financing to fund on the Closing Date the Financing, to the extent the proceeds thereof are required to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (including the payment of the Cash Consideration, any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article I and any other fees and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby). Parent and/or Holdco shall pay, or cause to be paid, as the same shall become due and payable, all fees and other amounts under the Commitment Letter.

(b) Parent will keep the Company reasonably informed on a timely basis of the status of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ efforts to obtain the Financing and to satisfy the conditions thereof, including providing copies of any amendment, modification or replacement of the Commitment Letter (provided, that any fee letter may be redacted to remove the fee amounts, the rates and amounts included in the “market flex” and other economic terms that could not adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability, termination or aggregate principal amount of the Financing) and shall give the Company prompt notice of any fact, change, event or

- 84 -

circumstance that is reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse impact on the Financing necessary for the satisfaction of all of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of the Cash Consideration, any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article I and any other fees and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including, promptly after obtaining Knowledge thereof, providing the Company written notice of any (A) material breach or default by a Financing Party or any party to any definitive document related to the Financing of the Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Financing, (B) actual or threatened withdrawal, repudiation or termination in writing of the Commitment Letter or the Financing by the Financing Parties or (C) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Financing with respect to the obligations to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at Closing; provided, that neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to disclose any information that is subject to attorney client or similar privilege to the extent such privilege is asserted in good faith or otherwise would violate or contravene any Law or any obligation of confidentiality. Parent and Holdco may amend, modify, replace, terminate, assign or agree to any waiver under the Commitment Letter without the prior written approval of the Company, provided, that Parent and Holdco shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, permit any such amendment, replacement, modification, assignment, termination or waiver to be made to, or consent to any waiver of, any provision of or remedy under the Commitment Letter which would (i) reduce the aggregate cash amounts of the Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount) unless the aggregate amount of the Financing following such reduction, together with cash on hand and other financial resources of Parent on the Closing Date, is sufficient to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including the payment of the Cash Consideration, any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article I and any other fees and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that any such reduction in such amounts in accordance with the terms of such Commitment Letter shall be permitted), (ii) impose new or additional conditions to the Financing or otherwise expand, amend, modify or waive any of the conditions to the Financing or (iii) otherwise expand, amend, modify or waive any provision of the Commitment Letter, in a manner that in any such case would reasonably be expected to (A) materially delay or make less likely the funding of the Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Financing) on the Closing Date, (B) materially adversely impact the ability of Parent or Holdco to enforce its rights against the Financing Parties or any other parties to the Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto or (C) materially adversely affect the ability of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to timely consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Holdco may modify, supplement or amend the Commitment Letter to (1) add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement and (2) implement or exercise any “market flex” provisions contained in the Commitment Letter. In the event that new commitment letters and/or fee letters are entered into in accordance with any amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of the Commitment Letter permitted pursuant to this Section 7.11, such new commitment letters and/or fee letters shall be deemed to be the “Commitment Letter” for all

- 85 -

purposes of this Agreement and references to “Financing” herein shall include and mean the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, as applicable. Parent shall promptly deliver to the Company copies of any termination, amendment, modification, waiver or replacement of the Commitment Letter. If funds in the amounts set forth in the Commitment Letter, or any portion thereof, become unavailable (other than in accordance with the terms of the Commitment Letter), Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (x) notify the Company in writing thereof and (y) use reasonable best efforts to obtain substitute financing, including, as applicable, a commitment to provide such substitute financing (on terms and conditions that are not materially less favorable to Parent and/or Holdco, taken as a whole, than the terms and conditions as set forth in the Commitment Letter, taking into account any “market flex” provisions thereof) sufficient, together with cash on hand and other financial resources of Parent on the Closing Date, to enable Parent and its Subsidiaries to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (including the payment of the Cash Consideration, any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article I and any other fees and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby) in accordance with the terms hereof (the “Substitute Financing”) and, promptly after execution thereof, deliver to the Company true, complete and correct copies of the new commitment letter and the related fee letters (in redacted form removing the fee amounts, the rates and amounts included in the “market flex” and other economic terms that could not adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability, termination or aggregate principal amount of the Financing) or related definitive financing documents with respect to such Substitute Financing. Upon obtaining any commitment for any such Substitute Financing, such financing shall be deemed to be a part of the “Financing” and any commitment letter for such Substitute Financing shall be deemed to be the “Commitment Letter” for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives to, on a timely basis, upon the reasonable request of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, provide cooperation in connection with the Financing or any other debt, equity, equity-linked or other financing of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including the following:

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be required to pay or cause to be paid the Company Termination Fee more than once.

- 101 -

Reverse Termination Fee. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the Parent Termination Fee and Reverse Termination Fee are not intended to be a penalty, but rather are liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company in the circumstances in which the Parent Termination Fee or Reverse Termination Fee, as applicable, is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

Section 9.4 Waiver. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

BYLAWS

EXPRESS SCRIPTS HOLDING COMPANY

Effective March 7, 2018, Express Scripts Holding Company amended its Amended and Restated Bylaws inserting the following as Section 6.11 thereof:

Section 6.11. Forum for Adjudication of Certain Disputes. Unless the corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (an “Alternative Forum Consent”), the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the corporation to the corporation or the corporation’s stockholders, including a claim alleging the aiding and abetting of such a breach of fiduciary duty, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the corporation arising out of or relating to any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, (iv) any action asserting a claim related to or involving the corporation or any director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the corporation that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware, or (v) any action asserting an “internal corporate claim” as that term is defined in Section 115 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that, in the event that the Delaware Court of Chancery lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the corporation irreparable harm and the corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 6.11. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of this Section 6.11 is filed in a court other than the Delaware Court of Chancery (or any other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) (a “Foreign Action”) by or in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce this Section 6.11 and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder. The existence of any prior Alternative Forum Consent shall not act as a waiver of the corporation’s ongoing consent right as set forth above in this Section 6.11 with respect to any current or future actions or claims.
