The Investor has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted.

(a) The Investor is duly qualified or licensed and has all necessary governmental approvals, to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such approvals, qualification or licensing necessary (to the extent the “qualification to do business” or “good standing” concept is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States), except where the failure to be so duly approved, qualified or licensed and in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have an Investor Material Adverse Effect.

(b) As of the Date of this Agreement, the Investor and its Affiliates do not beneficially own any shares of Company Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Company Common Stock.

Section 4.02 Authority; Noncontravention. The Investor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery by the Investor and the other Transaction Documents of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by the board of directors (or equivalent) of the Investor, and no other

corporate proceedings on the part of the Investor or vote of the Investor’s equityholders are necessary to authorize the consummation of the Transactions. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Investor, and assuming this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Investor, enforceable against it, in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exceptions. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents by the Investor, nor the consummation of the Transactions by the Investor, nor performance or compliance by the Investor with any of the terms or provisions hereof or thereof, will (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation or bylaws (or other comparable charter or organizational documents) of the Investor or (ii) violate any law, order or judgment applicable to the Investor or violate or constitute a default (or constitute an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would violate or constitute a default) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any contract to which the Investor is a party or accelerate the Investor’s obligations under any such contract, except, in the case of clause (ii), as would not, individually reasonably be expected to have an Investor Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.03 Governmental Approvals. Except for (a) the filing by the Company of the Statement With Respect to Shares with the Pennsylvania Department of State and (b) filings required under, and compliance with other applicable requirements of, the HSR Act and the antitrust Laws and any Laws with respect to foreign investment set forth on Section 4.03 of the Disclosure Schedules, no consent or approval of, or filing, license, permit or authorization, declaration or registration with, any Governmental Entity is necessary for the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the Investor, the performance by the Investor of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation by the Investor of the Transactions, other than such other consents, approvals, filings, licenses, permits, authorizations, declarations or registrations that, if not obtained, made or given, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an Investor Material Adverse Effect.

(a) As of the date hereof, the Investor has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy of the Equity Commitment Letter, pursuant to which Bain Capital Fund XII, L.P., Bain Capital Fund (DE) XII, L.P. and Bain Capital Fund (Lux) XII, SCSp (collectively, the “Equity Provider”), have committed, subject only to the terms and conditions thereof, to invest the amounts set forth therein (the “Equity Financing”). The Equity Commitment Letter provides that (A) the Company is an express third party beneficiary thereof; and (B) the Investor and Equity Provider

will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief seeking to enforce the obligations under the Equity Commitment Letter on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity in connection with the exercise of such third party beneficiary rights.

(b) (i) The Equity Commitment Letter and the terms of the Equity Financing have not been amended or modified as of the date hereof and as of the date of the Subsequent Closing; (ii) as of the date hereof no such amendment or modification is contemplated; and (iii) as of the date hereof the respective commitments contained therein have not been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded in any respect. There are no other contracts, agreements, side letters or arrangements to which the Investor is a party relating to the funding or investing, as applicable, that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the availability or conditionality of the Equity Financing, other than as expressly set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter. Other than as set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, there are no conditions precedent related to the funding or investing, as applicable, of the full amount of the Equity Financing.

(c) The net proceeds of the Equity Financing, when funded in accordance with the Equity Commitment Letter, will be, in the aggregate, sufficient to pay the Initial Investment Purchase Price at the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Investment Purchase Price at the Subsequent Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions contemplated in this Agreement. The Company acknowledges (x) the separate corporate existence of the Investor and (y) that the sole asset of the Investor is cash in a de minimis amount and its rights under this Agreement and the Equity Commitment Letter, in each case in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein and that no additional funds will be contributed to the Investor unless and until the Initial Closing occurs pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(d) As of the date hereof, the Equity Commitment Letter (in the form delivered by the Investor to the Company) is in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Investor and Equity Provider, as applicable, enforceable against the Investor and Equity Provider, as applicable, in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability (i) may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally; and (ii) is subject to general principles of equity. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article III in all respects as of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would, or would reasonably be expected to, constitute a default or breach on the part of the Investor or Equity Provider pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter. Subject to the Company’s compliance with this Agreement and the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 2.02(b)(i), as of the date hereof, the Investor has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of the Equity Financing to be satisfied by it, whether or not such term or condition is contained in the Equity Commitment Letter. As of the date of the hereof, the Investor has fully paid, or caused to be fully paid, all commitment or other fees that are due and payable on or prior to the date hereof, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter.

Section 4.05 Brokers and Other Advisors. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other Person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission, or the reimbursement of expenses in connection therewith, in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Investor or any of its Affilates, except for Persons, if any, whose fees and expenses will be paid by the Investor.

Section 4.06 Securities Act Representations.

(a) The Investor is an accredited investor (as defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act), and is aware that the sale of the Shares is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The Investor is not an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. The Investor is acquiring the Shares (and any shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares) for its own account, and not with a view toward, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of any federal or state securities or “blue sky” law, or with any present intention of distributing or selling such Shares (or any shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares) and agrees not to reoffer or resell the Shares in violation of the Securities Act. The Investor has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in such Shares (and any shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares) and is capable of bearing the economic risks of such investment. The Investor has been provided a reasonable opportunity to undertake and has undertaken such investigation and has been provided with and has evaluated such documents and information as it has deemed necessary to enable it to make an informed and intelligent decision with respect to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

(b) Neither the Investor nor any of its Affiliates is acting in concert, and neither the Investor nor any of its Affiliates has any agreement or understanding, with any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Investor, and is not otherwise a member of a “group” (as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), with respect to the Company or its securities, in each case, other than with respect to any bona fide loan from one or more financial institutions.

Section 4.07 No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article III or in any certificates delivered by the Company in connection with the Transactions, the Investor acknowledges that neither the Company nor any person on behalf of the Company makes, and none of the Investor or any person acting on behalf of the Investor has relied or is relying upon, any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other information provided or made available to the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the transactions contemplated by the Target Merger Agreement, including the accuracy, completeness or currency thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement and to the extent any such information is expressly included in a representation or warranty contained in Article III, neither the Company nor any other person will have or be subject to any liability or obligation to the Investor or any other person resulting from the distribution or failure to distribute to the Investor, or the Investor’s use of, any such information, including any information, documents, projections, estimates, forecasts or other material, made available to the Investor in any electronic data room maintained by the Company for purposes of, or in expectation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.04 Public Announcements. No press release or public announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein shall be issued or made by the Investor or its Affiliates without the prior written approval of the Company, unless required by Law (based on the advice of counsel) in which case the Company shall have the right to review and reasonably comment on such press release, announcement or communication prior to issuance, distribution or publication.

The Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate simultaneously with the Initial Closing.

Section 5.06 NASDAQ Listing of Shares.

Section 5.11 Board Matters; Election of Directors.

(a) Following the Initial Closing and until the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights, the Investor shall have the right to nominate the Investor Director Designee. Effective as of the Initial Closing, the Company and the Board will increase the size of the Board to accommodate the election of such individual (unless there is a vacancy in the Board at such time) and the Board shall elect Stephen Pagliuca to the Board to serve as the initial Investor Director Designee. The election or appointment of the Investor Director Designee shall be subject to satisfaction of all requirements set forth in the Company’s corporate governance guidelines, code of business conduct and ethics and insider trading policy in effect from time to time and applicable to other non-executive directors (the “Specified Guidelines”). No Investor Director Designee shall be required to qualify as an independent director under applicable stock exchange rules and federal securities laws and regulations. Following the Initial Closing and until the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights, the Investor shall continue to have the right to nominate the Investor Director Designee. The Company will reimburse the Investor Director

and any observer appointed pursuant to Section 5.11(b) for their respective reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with travel to or from and attendance at each meeting of the Board consistent with reimbursement policies of the Company applicable to non-executive directors of the Board. The Investor Director will receive compensation no less favorable than such compensation received by other non-executive directors of the Board. The Investor Director shall have the right to serve on all committees of the Board, subject to applicable legal and stock exchange requirements. The Investor agrees, upon the Company’s request, to timely provide the Company with accurate and complete information relating to the Investor Director as may be required to be disclosed by the Company under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and to make any necessary independence determinations, including for service on Board committees. Upon the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights, at the written request of the Board, the Investor Director shall resign, and the Investor shall cause the Investor Director immediately to resign, from the Board effective as of the date of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights.

(b) Following the Initial Closing and until the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights, the Investor shall have the right (in addition to the rights set forth in Section 5.11(a)) to designate a non-voting observer of the Board (the “Investor Observer”) reasonably satisfactory to the Board (it being agreed that Joseph Robbins is satisfactory to the Board). The Investor Observer shall be entitled to (i) attend, strictly as an observer, meetings of each committee of the Board, subject to applicable legal and stock exchange requirements, other than the Segment Operations Committees of Board and any similar committees that may be formed in the future and (ii) receive notice of and have the right to attend, strictly as an observer, meetings of the Board, and the Company shall provide the observer with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other material in connection therewith at the same time as such materials are distributed to members of the Board; provided, that (A) the Investor shall cause the Investor Observer to agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information provided to the observer pursuant hereto and (B) the Company and the Board shall have the right to withhold any information and to exclude the Investor Observer from any meeting or portion thereof if doing so is, in the opinion of outside counsel to the Company, advisable or necessary to protect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and counsel or work product protection, violate any Law or violate the terms of any confidentiality agreement or other contract with a third party. In order to be eligible to serve in such capacity, the Investor Observer shall provide a written undertaking to the Company agreeing to be subject to, bound by and duly comply with a standard confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to the Company, the code of conduct and other policies of the Company, in each case, to the extent applicable to non-executive directors of the Company. The Investor Observer shall have no right to vote on any matters presented to the Board or any Board committee or be entitled to receive any compensation in his or her capacity as Investor Observer. Any action taken by the Board at any meeting will not be invalidated by the absence of the Investor Observer at such meeting. All obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section 5.11(b) shall terminate, and, upon request by the Board, the Investor shall cause the Investor Observer to resign promptly from his or position as a non-voting observer, in each case upon the Investor ceasing to have the right to designate the Investor Observer pursuant to this Section 5.11.

(c) Following the Initial Closing and until the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Investor Board Rights, at any annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the term of the Investor Director shall expire, the Investor shall have the right to designate, in accordance with the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company and the PBCL and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.11, the Investor Director Designee. The Company and the Board shall (i) include each Investor Director Designee designated by the Investor in accordance with this Section 5.11 in the Company’s slate of nominees for the applicable meeting of the Company’s stockholders (whether in the Company’s proxy statement or otherwise), (ii) recommend that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of such Investor Director Designee, (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to support such nominees with substantially the same level of efforts and support as is used and/or provided for the other director nominees of the Company with respect to the applicable meeting of stockholders, (iv) cause the Board to have sufficient vacancies to permit such Investor Director Designee to be elected as a member of the Board and (v) so long as any Investor Director Designee is eligible to be so designated in accordance with this Section 5.11, not take any action to remove such person as such a director without cause without the prior written consent of the Investor. The Investor shall not be required to comply with the advance notice provisions generally applicable to the nomination of directors by the Company so long as the Investor provides reasonable advance notice to the Company of the Investor Director Designee prior to the mailing of the proxy statement by the Company (provided, that upon the request of the Investor the Company shall provide reasonable advance notice to the Investor of the expected mailing date). For the avoidance of doubt, failure of the stockholders of the Company to elect any Investor Director Designee to the Board shall not affect the right of the Investor to nominate directors for election pursuant to this Section 5.11 in any future election of directors.

(d) In the event of the death, disability, resignation or removal of the Investor Director as a member of the Board (other than pursuant to Section 5.11(c)), the Investor may designate an Investor Director Designee (in accordance with the process set forth in Section 5.11(a)) to replace such director and the Company shall cause such Investor Director Designee to fill such resulting vacancy. In the event of the death, disability, resignation or removal of the Investor Observer, the Investor may designate an observer designee (in accordance with the process set forth in Section 5.11(b)) to replace such observer.

(e) The Company agrees to negotiate in good faith the form of, and agrees to enter into, a customary director indemnification agreement with the Investor Director no less favorable than with other non-executive members of the Board and including customary provisions as agreed by the parties in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify the Investor Director and provide the Investor Director with director and officer insurance to the same extent as it indemnifies and provides such insurance to other non-executive members of the Board, pursuant to the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, the PBCL or otherwise. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to any indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided in the Company’s articles of incorporation, bylaws and/or any indemnification agreement entered into between the Company and the Investor Director (such that the Company’s obligations to such indemnitees are primary), and the Company agrees to include customary “Levy Provisions” with respect to the foregoing in any such indemnification agreement.

(f) To the fullest extent permitted by the PBCL and subject to any express agreement that may from time to time be in effect, the Company agrees that any Investor Director Designee, Investor Observer, the Investor and any other member of the Bain Group or any portfolio company thereof (collectively, “Covered Persons”) may, and shall have no duty not to, (i) invest in, carry on and conduct, whether directly, or as a partner in any partnership, or as a joint venturer in any joint venture, or as an officer, director, stockholder, equityholder or investor in any person, or as a participant in any syndicate, pool, trust or association, any business of any kind, nature or description, whether or not such business is competitive with or in the same or similar lines of business as the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) do business with any client, customer, vendor or lessor of any of the Company or its Affiliates; and/or (iii) make investments in any kind of property in which the Company may make investments. To the fullest extent permitted by the PBCL, the Company renounces any interest or expectancy to participate in any business or investments of any Covered Person as currently conducted or as may be conducted in the future, and waives any claim against a Covered Person and shall indemnify a Covered Person against any claim that such Covered Person is liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of such person’s participation in any such business or investment. The Company shall pay in advance any expenses incurred in defense of such claim as provided in this provision except to the extent that a Covered Person is determined by a final, non-appealable order of a Delaware court having competent jurisdiction (or any other judgement which is not appealed in the applicable time) that such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.11(f), in which case any such advanced expenses shall be promptly reimbursed to the Company. The Company agrees that in the event that a Covered Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may constitute a corporate opportunity for both (x) the Covered Person and (y) the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Covered Person shall not have any duty to offer or communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company or its Subsidiaries, except for any corporate opportunity which is expressly offered to a Covered Person in writing stating that such offer is intended for such Covered Person in his or her capacity as a member of the Board. To the fullest extent permitted by the PBCL, the Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in any potential transaction or matter of which the Covered Person acquires knowledge. The Company shall pay in advance any expenses incurred in defense of such claim as provided in this provision, except to the extent that a Covered Person is determined by a final, non-appealable order of a Delaware court having competent jurisdiction (or any other judgment which is not appealed in the applicable time) to have breached this Section 5.11(f) in which case any such advanced expenses shall be promptly reimbursed to the Company.

(g) For so long as an Investor Director Designee is on the Board, (i) such Investor Director Designee shall be subject to the Specified Guidelines, but the Company shall not implement or maintain any trading policy, equity ownership guidelines (including with respect to the use of Rule 10b5-1 plans and preclearance or notification to the Company of any trades in the Company’s securities) or similar guideline or policy with respect to the trading of securities of the Company that applies to the Investor or its Affiliates (including a policy that limits, prohibits or restricts the Investor or its Affiliates from entering into any hedging or derivative arrangements), in each case other than with respect to any Investor Director Designee solely in his or her individual capacity, except as provided herein, or that imposes confidentiality obligations on any Investor Director Designee that are inconsistent with the Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) any share ownership requirement for any Investor Director Designee serving on the Board shall be deemed satisfied by the securities owned by the Bain Group and/or its Affiliates and under no circumstances shall any of such policies, procedures, processes, codes, rules, standards and guidelines impose any restrictions on the Bain Group’s or its Affiliates’ transfers of securities pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement and (iii) under no

circumstances shall any policy, procedure, code, rule, standard or guideline applicable to the Board be violated by any Investor Director Designee (x) accepting an invitation to serve on another board of directors of a company that competes (or whose Subsidiaries compete) in any material respect with the business of the Company or failing to notify an officer or director of the Company prior to doing so (provided, however, that the Investor Director Designee shall be subject to customary recusal requirements of the Board), (y) receiving compensation from the Bain Group or any of its Affiliates, or (z) failing to offer his or her resignation from the Board of Directors except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or pursuant to any majority voting policy adopted by the Board of Directors, and, in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii), it is agreed that any such policies in effect from time to time that purport to impose terms inconsistent with this Section 5.11 shall not apply to the extent inconsistent with this Section 5.11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor acknowledges and agrees, and will advise each Person who receive any Confidential Information subject to Section 5.05, that the Confidential Information may include material non-public information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries, and the Investor hereby further acknowledges that it is aware, and that it will advise such Persons, that the United States federal securities laws prohibit persons with material non-public information about a company obtained directly or indirectly from such company from purchasing or selling securities of such company on the basis of such information or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such other person is likely to purchase or sell such securities on the basis of such information.

(h) At each meeting of the shareholders of the Company involving the election of directors following the receipt of the Initial HSR Approval and at every postponement or adjournment thereof, the Investor shall, and shall cause the Investor Parties to, take such action as may be required so that all of the voting equity securities of the Company beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Investor Parties and entitled to vote at such meeting of shareholders are voted in favor of each director nominated or recommended by the Board for election.

Termination; Survival

Section 7.01 Termination prior to the Subsequent Closing. The rights and obligations of the parties in respect of the Subsequent Closing and the provisions of this Agreement specifically related to the Subsequent Investment (the “Subsequent Investment Provisions”) may only be terminated at any time prior to the Subsequent Closing:

(a) by the mutual written consent of the Company and the Investor;

(b) automatically upon the valid termination of the Target Merger Agreement for any reason in accordance with its terms and conditions, including as set forth in Section 7.1 therein;

(c) by either the Company or the Investor upon valid delivery of written notice to the other, if the Subsequent Closing has not occurred on or prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the nine-month anniversary of the date of the Target Merger Agreement (the “Investor Original End Date”); provided that if the Original End Date is extended to the “First Extended End Date” under the Target Merger Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 7.1 therein, the Investor Original End Date shall automatically, without any further action by any Person, be extended to the same date as the “First Extended End Date” as defined in the Target Merger Agreement (the “Investor First Extended End Date”); provided, further, that if the “First Executed End Date” is extended to the “Second Extended End Date” in the Target Merger Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 7.1 therein, the Investor First Extended End Date shall automatically, without any further action by any Person, be extended to the same date as the “Second Extended End Date” as defined in the Target Merger Agreement (the “Investor Second Extended End Date”); provided, further, that if the Second Executed End Date is extended to the “Third Extended End Date” in the Target Merger Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 7.1 therein, the Investor Second Extended End Date shall automatically, without any further action by any Person, be extended to the same date as the “Third Extended End Date” as defined in the Target Merger Agreement (the “Investor Third Extended End Date”, and the Investor Original End Date, as such date may be extended to the Investor First Extended End Date, the Investor Second Extended End Date and the Investor Third Extended End Date, as applicable, the “Investor End Date”); provided that (i) the right to terminate the Subsequent Investment Provisions pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) shall not be available to a party if the failure of the Subsequent Closing to occur by such date shall have resulted from a material breach by such party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement of such party set forth in this Agreement and (ii) the Investor shall not have the right to terminate the Subsequent Investment Provisions pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) unless and until the Company has the right to terminate the Target Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(b) thereof;

(d) by either the Company or the Investor, if an injunction shall have been entered permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Subsequent Closing and such injunction shall have become final and nonappealable; provided, that the right to terminate the Subsequent Investment Provisions under this Section 7.01(d) shall not be available to a party if such injunction was primarily due to a material breach by such party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement of such party set forth in this Agreement;

(e) by the Company, if the Investor shall have breached or failed to perform any of its or their representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) if it occurred or was continuing to occur on the Subsequent Closing Date, would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.02(b) and (ii) by its nature, cannot be cured prior to the Investor End Date or, if such breach or failure is capable of being cured by the Investor End Date, the Investor has not cured such breach or failure within 30 days after receiving written notice from the Company describing such breach or failure in reasonable detail (provided that the Company is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein that would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.03(a) or Section 6.03(b)); or

(f) by the Investor, if the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) if it occurred or was continuing to occur on the Subsequent Closing, would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.03(a) or Section 6.03(b) and (ii) by its nature, cannot be cured prior to the Investor End Date, if such breach or failure is capable of being cured by the Investor End Date, the Company has not cured such breach or failure within 30 days after receiving written notice from Investor describing such breach or failure in reasonable detail (provided that Investor is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein that would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.02(b)).

Section 7.02 Effect of Termination Prior to Subsequent Closing. In the event of the termination of the Subsequent Investment Provisions as provided in Section 7.01, written notice thereof shall be given to the other party, specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and the Subsequent Investment Provisions shall forthwith become null and void (other than Section 5.04, Section 5.05, this Section 7.02 and Article VIII (for the avoidance of doubt, all rights, obligations, terms and conditions of this Agreement which are not the Subsequent Investment Provisions shall survive termination of this Agreement)), and there shall be no liability on the part of the Investor or the Company or their respective directors, officers and Affiliates in connection with the Subsequent Investment Provisions, except that (a) no such termination shall relieve any party from liability for damages for Fraud or willful breach of the Subsequent Investment Provisions prior to such termination and (b) the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to affect their right to specific performance in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Survival and Limitation on Liability.

(a) All of the covenants or other agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement to be performed prior to the Subsequent Closing shall terminate at the Subsequent Closing. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.02, all of the covenants or other agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement to be performed following the Subsequent Closing shall survive until fully performed or fulfilled, unless and to the extent that non-compliance with such covenants or agreements is waived in writing by the party entitled to such performance. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (including the schedules and the certificates delivered pursuant hereto) will survive (i) with respect to claims in respect of the Series B-1 Preferred Shares, for twelve months following the date hereof and (ii) with respect to claims in respect of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares or Series B-3 Preferred Shares (if any) will survive for twelve (12) months following the Subsequent Closing; provided further that nothing herein shall relieve any party of liability for any inaccuracy or breach of such representation or warranty to the extent that any good faith allegation of such inaccuracy or breach is made in writing prior to such expiration by a Person entitled to make such claim pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, claims may be made with respect to the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant until the applicable survival period therefor as described above expires.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, except in the case of Fraud or willful breach in connection with the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article III, (i) from and after the date hereof until the Subsequent Closing (if any), the maximum liability of the Company under or relating to this Agreement to the extent relating to or arising out of any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company made herein (other than in respect of Fundamental Representations of the Company) shall in no event exceed 30% of the Initial Investment Purchase Price and (ii) from and after the Subsequent Closing the maximum liability of the Company under or relating to this Agreement to the extent relating to or arising out of any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company made herein (other than in respect of Fundamental Representations of the Company) shall in no event exceed 30% of the sum of the Initial Investment Purchase Price and the Subsequent Investment Purchase Price. From and after the date hereof, the Investor hereby irrevocably waives any right of rescission it may otherwise have or to which it may become entitled in respect of the Series B-1 Preferred Shares. From and after the Subsequent Closing, the Investor hereby irrevocably waives any right of rescission it may otherwise have or to which it may become entitled in respect of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares or Series B-3 Preferred Shares (if any).

ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.03 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided, however, that (a) following the first to occur of the Subsequent Closing and the termination of the Target Merger Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, the Investor or any Investor Party may assign its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, in conjunction with a permitted transfer of Shares to one or more Permitted Transferees, including as contemplated in Section 5.08 so long as the assignee shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including the rights, interests and obligations so assigned, (b)

following written notice delivered to the Company, without the prior written consent of the Company, the Investor may grant to the lender(s) (or agents) under any such Back Leverage a security interest in its respective rights (but not its obligations) under this Agreement in connection with any such Back Leverage; it being understood that in no event will the Investor be relieved of its obligations hereunder prior to the Subsequent Closing. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

This Agreement and any signed agreement entered into in connection herewith or contemplated hereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail or by DocuSign, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such contract, each other party hereto or thereto shall re–execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such contract shall raise the use of a .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail or by DocuSign to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or contract was transmitted or communicated through the use of .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail or by DocuSign as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

Section 8.05 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, including the Disclosure Schedules, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder; provided that (i) Section 5.11(e) shall be for the benefit of and fully enforceable by the Investor Director, (ii) Section 5.11(f) shall be for the benefit of and fully enforceable by each of the Covered Persons and (iii) Section 8.13 shall be for the benefit of and fully enforceable by each of the Non-Recourse Parties.

Section 8.06 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that State, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of Laws principles. All legal actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over any legal action or proceeding, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) and the

parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such legal action or proceeding and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such legal action or proceeding. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 8.06 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 8.09 of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such legal action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.06, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under an applicable conflict of Laws principles.

Section 8.07 Specific Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, subject to Section 7.03, the parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the right of each party to cause the Subsequent Closing to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement) in the courts described in Section 8.06 without proof of damages or otherwise (in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 8.07), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor the Investor would have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereto agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8.07 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 8.08 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT

(A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 8.08.

Section 8.10 Severability. If any term, condition or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term, condition or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 8.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Subsequent Closing shall have occurred; provided that the Company shall, upon the Initial Closing, reimburse the Investor for up to $2.0 million of its and its Affiliates’ reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Initial Investment (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of third-party consultants, legal counsel, accountants and financing advisors in connection therewith); provided further, that in the event that the reimbursement pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso clause was in an amount less than $2.0 million, then the Company shall, upon the Subsequent Closing, reimburse the Investor for all such reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Subsequent Investment by it and its Affiliates up to $2.0 million in the aggregate. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s aggregate reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 8.11 shall in no event exceed $2.0 million.

Section 8.12 Interpretation.

(a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise. The words “date hereof” when used in this

Agreement shall refer to the date of this Agreement. The terms “or”, “any” and “either” are not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” The words “made available to the Investor” and words of similar import refer to documents (A) posted to the Datasite LLC’s data room for Project Watson by or on behalf of the Company or (B) delivered in Person or electronically to the Investor or its respective Representatives, in each case no later than one Business Day prior to the date hereof. All accounting terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them under GAAP. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. In the event that the Company Common Stock is principally listed on a national securities exchange other than the NASDAQ, all references herein to NASDAQ shall be deemed to be references to such other national securities exchange. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to the lawful money of the United States. References to a Person are also to its permitted assigns and successors. When calculating the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (unless, otherwise required by Law, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day).

(b) The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 8.13 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the Transactions may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partners, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative of any party hereto (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Parties”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Transactions (whether in contract, in tort, in law or in equity or provided by statute, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or otherwise), except to the extent expressly set forth in the other Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.13 is intended to benefit and may be enforced by each Non-Recourse Party (and each such Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 8.13) and shall be binding on all respective successors and permitted assigns thereof.

TERMS OF STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO SHARES


Issuer:		II-VI Incorporated (the “Company”).

Securities:		The securities will consist of (i) Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, having no par value per share (the “B-1 Preferred Stock”), (ii) Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, having no par value per share (the “B-2 Preferred Stock”), and (iii) Series B-3 Convertible Preferred Stock, having no par value per share (the “B-3 Preferred Stock,” and together with the B-1 Preferred Stock and the B-2 Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu with the Company’s 6.0% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Existing Preferred”) and senior to all other classes or series of equity securities of the Company with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation. The obligation of the holders of the B-1 Preferred Stock to purchase the B-2 Preferred Stock and the B-3 Preferred Stock (if any), subject to the conditions in the Investment Agreement (the “Purchase Obligation”), will be embodied in the Statement With Respect to Shares to be filed in connection with the Initial Closing. The Purchase Obligation will terminate upon (i) a foreclosure in respect of a Transfer pursuant to Section 5.08(b)(vi) of the Investment Agreement or (ii) a Transfer pursuant to Section 5.08(b)(iv) or Section 5.08(b)(v) of the Investment Agreement.

Purchase Price:		$10,000 per share of Preferred Stock (as may be increased by payment of dividends in kind, the “Stated Value”).

Conversion Price:		The Investor may at any time convert all or a portion of the Preferred Stock into common stock of the Company. Each share of Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the Stated Value of such share divided by the applicable conversion price (each, a “Conversion Price”). The initial Conversion Price with respect to (i) the B-1 Preferred Stock will be $85.00 per share, (ii) the B-2 Preferred Stock will be $85.00 per share and (iii) the B-3 Preferred Stock will be $85.00 per share.

Anti-Dilution:		The applicable Conversion Price with respect to each series of Preferred Stock will be subject to proportional adjustment for any stock split, stock dividend, merger, recapitalization, rights offering or similar event.

Dividends:		For the first four years after the closing, dividends will be paid in kind by accreting to, and increasing, the applicable Stated Value and will accrue daily and compound on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to 5% per annum. Thereafter, dividends will accrue daily and be payable in cash or, at the Company’s option, in kind by accreting to, and increasing, the applicable Stated Value. The Preferred Stock will not participate in cash dividends paid to the holders of Company common stock, and the applicable Conversion Price will be reduced by the amount of any Ordinary Dividends. At any time when shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding and the Investor continues to beneficially own at least 5% of the aggregate number of

D-1


		shares of Preferred Stock issued at the Initial Closing (if the Subsequent Closing has not occurred) or the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing (if the Subsequent Closing has occurred), the Company shall not without the written consent of the Investor, pay any cash dividend on the common stock of the Company other than Ordinary Dividends. “Ordinary Dividends” means cash dividends paid on the common stock of the Company in the aggregate not exceeding (i) in calendar year 2021, $3.00 per share (the “Maximum”), and (ii) in each subsequent calendar year, 105% of the prior year’s Maximum.

Liquidation Preference:		In the event of any liquidation or winding up of the Company, the holder of each share of the Preferred Stock will receive in preference to the holders of the Company common stock (or any junior preferred stock) a per share amount equal to the greater of (i) the applicable Stated Value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends and (ii) the amount such holder would be entitled to receive at such time if the share of Preferred Stock were converted into Company common stock. For the avoidance of doubt, a merger, acquisition, change of control or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company will not be deemed to be a liquidation or winding up.

Conversion at Option of the Company:		With respect to each series of Preferred Stock, at any time after the third anniversary of the applicable initial issuance date, the Company will have the option to convert all (but not less than all) of the then-outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the applicable Stated Value of such shares plus accrued and unpaid dividends, divided by the applicable Conversion Price, provided that the closing price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 150 % of such Conversion Price for 20 trading days in any 30 consecutive trading day period ending no later than 2 business days prior to the date of notice of conversion.

Mandatory Redemption:		At any time on or after the tenth anniversary of the applicable initial issuance date, the Company shall have the right to redeem, and the holders of Preferred Stock may elect to cause the Company to redeem, each outstanding share of the Preferred Stock for cash consideration equal to the applicable Stated Value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends.

Change of Control:		If a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Existing Preferred) occurs, the Company will be required to promptly make an offer to repurchase all of the then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock for cash consideration per share equal to 100% of the applicable Stated Value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, plus (if prior to the fifth anniversary of closing) a “make whole” premium equal to the amount of all dividends that would otherwise have been paid in respect of such share of Preferred Stock through the fifth anniversary of the closing; provided that the holders shall first have a notice period to convert their shares of Preferred Stock (including all accrued and unpaid dividends) into Company common stock at the applicable Conversion Price (and participate in the Fundamental Change).
