ARTICLE II

EFFECTS OF THE MERGER

SECTION 2.1. Conversion of Giant Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Newco, Merger Sub, Giant or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Giant Common Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Giant (“Giant Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(b)) shall be converted into the right to receive one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Newco Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”).

(b) Giant and BCH-Owned Shares. Each share of Giant Common Stock owned by Giant, Merger Sub, BCH or any Subsidiary of any of the foregoing parties in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled without any conversion thereof, and no consideration shall be paid with respect thereto.

(c) Conversion of Merger Sub Stock. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of Giant, as the surviving corporation in the Merger.

(d) Distribution of Newco Common Stock. Giant shall distribute to Newco immediately after the Effective Time, all of the Newco Common Stock held by Giant immediately prior to the Effective Time.

SECTION 2.2. Exchange of Certificates

(a) Exchange of Certificates. Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Giant Common Stock (the “Certificates”) and shares of Giant Common Stock represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall be exchanged in accordance with this Section 2.2.

(b) Deposit of Merger Consideration. Prior to the Effective Time, Newco shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the stockholders of Giant, certificates or, at Newco’s option, evidence of shares in book entry form, representing shares of Newco Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Article II in exchange for shares of Giant Common Stock, for which Certificates have been properly delivered to the Exchange Agent. Such Certificates (or evidence of book-entry form, as the case may be) for shares of Newco Common Stock is hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(c) Exchange Procedures. (i) Promptly after the Effective Time, Newco shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of a Certificate (i) a letter of transmittal which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which letter shall be in customary form and have such other provisions as BCH and Giant may reasonably specify (such letter to be in form reasonably acceptable to BCH and Giant prior to the Effective Time) and (ii)

instructions for effecting the surrender of such Certificates in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate to the Exchange Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) one or more shares of Newco Common Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested or is otherwise required by applicable Law or regulation) representing, in the aggregate, the number of shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Article II.

(ii) If payment or issuance of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition of payment or issuance that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment or issuance shall have paid to the Exchange Agent any transfer and other taxes required by reason of the payment or issuance of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax either has been paid or is not applicable. In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the holder’s compliance with the replacement requirements established by the Exchange Agent, including, if necessary, the posting by the holder of a bond in customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to the Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Giant Common Stock represented by the Certificate pursuant to this Article II.

(iii) No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, after the Effective Time, represent for all purposes only the right to receive upon such surrender the applicable Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article II, the issuance or payment of which shall be deemed to be the satisfaction in full of all rights pertaining to Giant Common Stock converted in the Merger.

(iv) At the Effective Time, the transfer books of Giant shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Giant Common Stock that were outstanding prior to the Effective Time. After the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares presented to Giant for transfer shall be canceled and exchanged for the consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II.

(d) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Newco Common Stock issuable with respect to the Giant Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificates or Book-Entry Shares until those Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are surrendered as provided in this Article II. Upon surrender, there shall be issued and/or paid to the holder of the shares of Newco Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of surrender, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to those shares of Newco Common Stock

with a record date on or after the date of the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of this surrender and not previously paid and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to those shares of Newco Common Stock with a record date on or after the date of the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to surrender.

(e) Fractional Shares. Certificates or scrip or shares of Newco Common Stock representing fractional shares of Newco Common Stock or book-entry credit of the same may be issued upon surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the stockholders of Giant on the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to Newco, upon demand by Newco, and any stockholders of Giant who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Newco for payment of their claim for any part of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to Newco Common Stock.

(g) No Liability. None of Giant or Newco shall be liable to any holder of Giant Common Stock for cash or shares of Newco Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(h) Withholding. Newco and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Giant Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Newco or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Giant Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Newco or the Exchange Agent.

SECTION 2.3. Options and other Stock Awards

(a) The boards of directors of Giant and Newco (or the applicable committees of those boards of directors that have authority with respect to stock options) shall take all action necessary so that all options to acquire shares of Giant Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Giant Options”) under the Giant Stock Plans shall, as of the Effective Time, cease to constitute options to acquire shares of Giant Common Stock and shall instead constitute options to acquire shares of Newco Common Stock as provided in this Section 2.3(a). As of the Effective Time, all outstanding Giant Options shall be assumed by Newco, and each Giant Option so assumed by Newco shall be exercisable upon the same terms and conditions as under the applicable Giant Stock Plan and the option agreement pursuant to which the option was issued (but giving effect to the Merger and any acceleration of vesting as a result thereof); provided, that, any Giant Option which is an “incentive stock option” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be subject to any other or further adjustments so that the option remains as an incentive stock option immediately following the Effective Time.

(b) The boards of directors of Giant and Newco (or the applicable committees of those boards of directors that have authority with respect to stock based compensatory awards), as applicable, shall take all action necessary so that all rights of any kind, whether vested or unvested, to receive shares of Giant Common Stock or benefits measured by reference to the value of a number of shares of Giant Common Stock, other than the Giant Options (each, a “Giant Stock Award”) under the Giant Stock Plans shall, as of the Effective Time, cease to constitute rights with respect to Giant Common Stock and shall constitute rights with respect to Newco Common Stock as provided in this Section 2.3(b). As of the Effective Time, all outstanding Giant Stock Awards shall be assumed by Newco, and each Giant Stock Award so assumed by Newco shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as are then applicable (but giving effect to the Merger and any acceleration of vesting or lapse of restrictions occurring as a result thereof), except that each Giant Stock Award shall constitute rights with respect to a number of shares of Newco Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Giant Common Stock subject thereto immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Newco shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a number of shares of Newco Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Newco Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Giant Options and pursuant to the Giant Stock Awards assumed by Newco pursuant to Sections 2.3(a) and (b). At the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, Newco shall file with the SEC one or more Registration Statements on Form S-8 covering all shares of Newco Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Giant Options, and all shares to be issued pursuant to the Giant Stock Awards (to the extent not covered under the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 5.3 of this Agreement), and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become and remain continuously effective, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the current status of the related prospectus as well as to comply with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, for as long as there are outstanding any Giant Options or Giant Stock Awards.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

SECTION 3.1. Representations and Warranties of BCH. Except as set forth in the disclosure schedule (each section of which qualifies the correspondingly numbered representation and warranty or covenant as specified therein, provided that any disclosure set forth with respect to any particular section shall be deemed to be disclosed in reference to all other applicable sections to which the relevance of such disclosure is readily apparent on its face) previously delivered by BCH to Giant (the “BCH Disclosure Schedule”), BCH hereby represents and warrants to Giant as follows:

(a) Organization, Standing and Power. BCH and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has all requisite entity power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted. BCH and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and/or licensed, as may be required, and in good standing in each of the jurisdictions in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character of the property owned, leased or used by it makes such qualification and/or licensing necessary, except in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so

qualified and/or licensed, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on BCH. BCH has made available to Giant copies of the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement (or other governing documents), and any amendments thereto, of BCH and Altivity Packaging, LLC (“Altivity”), and each is a complete and correct copy and contains all amendments thereto as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(b) Capitalization. As of the date of this Agreement, the only issued and outstanding equity interests of BCH consists of 314,230,000 “common units” and 13,527,000 “profits units” (collectively, the “BCH Equity Interests”, all of which are owned, collectively, by the Sellers and were validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were issued free of preemptive rights. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, as of the date of this Agreement, no options to purchase BCH Equity Interests have been granted and no BCH Equity Interests have been issued. Except as set forth in the two immediately preceding sentences, (A) there are not outstanding or authorized any (I) membership interests or other voting securities of BCH, (II) securities convertible into or exchangeable for membership interests or voting securities of BCH or (III) options or other rights to acquire from BCH, and no obligation of BCH to issue, any membership interests, voting securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for membership interests or voting securities of BCH (collectively, “BCH Securities”), (B) there are no outstanding obligations of BCH to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any BCH Securities and (C) there are no other options, calls, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued capital stock or membership interests of BCH or any of its Subsidiaries to which BCH or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. As of the Closing Date, no BCH Equity Interests shall be outstanding, other than as set forth above. Except for the limited liability company agreement of BCH, neither BCH nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract with respect to the voting of any such securities. No bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness having the right to vote on any matters on which members of BCH may vote are outstanding. Neither BCH nor any of its Subsidiaries owns, beneficially or of record, any shares of Giant Common Stock.

(b) Each of BCH and Giant shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in this Section 5.2, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, (ii) promptly inform the other parties of the status of any of the matters contemplated hereby, including providing the other with a copy of any written communication (or summary of oral communications) received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission or any other Governmental Authority and of any written communication (or summary of oral communications) received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) consult with each other in advance to the extent practicable of any meeting or conference with any such Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any such other Person, and to the extent permitted by any such Governmental Authority or other Person, give the other the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 5.2, if (i) (A) any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Law, Order or decree (including any applicable antitrust Laws), (B) any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any Governmental Authority or private party challenging the Merger, the Exchange or the other transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any Law, Order or decree (including any applicable antitrust Laws) or that would otherwise prevent, materially delay or materially impede the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, or (C) any Law, Order or decree is enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Authority that would make the Merger, the Exchange or the other transactions

contemplated hereby illegal or would otherwise prevent, materially delay or materially impede the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, then (ii) each of BCH and Giant shall use its best efforts to resolve any such objections, actions or proceedings so as to permit the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, subject to Section 5.2(a), selling, holding separate or otherwise disposing of or conducting its or its Subsidiaries’ business or asset in a specified manner, or agreeing to sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of or conduct its or its Subsidiaries’ business or assets in a specified manner, which would resolve such objections, actions or proceedings.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this Section 5.2, but subject to first complying with the obligations of Section 5.2(c), if any of the events specified in Section 5.2(c)(i)(B) or (C) occurs, then each of BCH and Giant shall cooperate in all respects with each other and use their reasonable best efforts, subject to Section 5.2(a), to contest and resist any such administrative or judicial action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any judgment, injunction or other decree or Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prevents, materially delays or materially impedes the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to have such Law, Order or decree repealed, rescinded or made inapplicable so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and each of BCH and Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to defend, at its own cost and expense, any such administrative or judicial actions or proceedings.

(e) Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain the Financing, in consultation with BCH, on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter (provided that with the prior written consent of BCH (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed) Giant may replace or amend the Commitment Letter), including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter, (ii) negotiate, in consultation with BCH, definitive agreements with respect thereto on terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated by the Commitment Letter, (iii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Giant in the Commitment Letter that are within its control and comply with its obligations thereunder, and (iv) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter. In the event that all conditions to the Commitment Letter have been satisfied or, upon funding will be satisfied, in each case in Giant’s good faith judgment, Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the lenders providing such Financing to fund on the Closing Date the Financing required to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including by taking enforcement action to cause such lenders and the other Persons providing such Financing to fund such Financing). If any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated in the Commitment Letter, Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain in consultation with BCH and with BCH’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), alternative financing from alternative sources in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on terms no less favorable to Newco (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and as determined in the reasonable judgment of Giant in consultation with BCH and with BCH’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed)) than those in the Commitment Letter (including the flex provisions) as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Giant shall give BCH prompt

notice (but in any event not later than 24 hours after the occurrence) of any material breach by any party to the Commitment Letter or of any condition not likely to be satisfied, in each case, of which Giant becomes aware or any termination of the Commitment Letter. Giant shall consult with BCH on all material aspects of the Financing and keep BCH informed on a current basis of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing.

(f) Prior to the Closing, BCH shall provide to Giant, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall cause its Representatives to, provide to Giant cooperation reasonably requested by Giant in connection with the arrangement of the Financing, including (i) participating in lender meetings and presentations, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies, (ii) assisting with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda and similar documents required in connection with the Financing, (iii) facilitating the pledging of collateral as may be reasonably requested by Giant and (iv) taking all actions reasonably necessary to (A) permit the lenders under the Commitment Letter to conduct a commercial finance examination and inventory appraisal for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements; provided, however, that such access and information shall only be provided to the extent that in the reasonable judgment of BCH such access or the provision of such information would not violate applicable Law; provided, further, that neither BCH nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to commit to take any action that is not contingent upon the Closing (including the entry into any purchase agreement). None of BCH or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment other than reasonable out-of-pocket costs or incur any other liability prior to the Effective Time. Giant shall, promptly upon request by BCH, reimburse BCH for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by BCH or its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation (excluding the fees of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP). If the Closing does not occur, Giant shall indemnify and hold harmless BCH, its Subsidiaries, and their respective Representatives for and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Financing (excluding the fees of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP in connection with such cooperation, other than such fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of this provision) and any information utilized in connection therewith.

SECTION 5.3. Preparation of the Form S-4 and the Proxy Statement. As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (i) Giant shall prepare and file with the SEC the proxy statement (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement”) to be sent to the stockholders of Giant relating to the meeting of Giant’s stockholders (the “Giant Stockholders Meeting”) to be held to consider adoption of this Agreement and (ii) Giant shall cause Newco to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Form S-4”), which will include the Proxy Statement, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the shares of Newco Common Stock to be issued in the Merger. Giant shall include in the Proxy Statement the recommendation of the Board of Directors of Giant to Giant’s Stockholders in favor of approval of this Agreement and the Merger (the “Giant Recommendation”), except that Giant shall not be obligated to so include the Giant Recommendation if Giant has duly effected a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 5.7(b). Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as

promptly as practicable after such filing, and, prior to the effective date of the Form S-4, Giant shall cause Newco to take all action reasonably required (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or filing a general consent to service of process) to be taken under any applicable state securities Laws in connection with the issuance of shares of Newco Common Stock in the Merger and Exchange. Each of BCH and Giant shall furnish all information as may be reasonably requested by the other in connection with any such action and the preparation, filing and distribution of the Form S-4 and the Proxy Statement. As promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 shall have become effective, Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to its stockholders as of the record date for the Giant Stockholders Meeting. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Form S-4 will be made by Newco, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by Newco (in each case including documents incorporated by reference therein), in each case without providing BCH a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Newco, BCH or Giant, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by Newco, BCH or Giant which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement, so that either such document 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 are made, not misleading, the party that 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 Giant. Giant and Newco shall promptly notify BCH of the time when the Form S-4 has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the Newco Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger or Exchange for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Form S-4 or for additional information.

SECTION 5.4. Giant Stockholders Meeting. Giant shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Giant Stockholders Meeting, including mailing the Proxy Statement as soon as reasonably practicable after effectiveness of the Form S-4. At such Giant Stockholders Meeting, Giant shall make the Giant Recommendation to its stockholders, and Giant shall use all reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the Merger; provided, however, that Giant shall not be obligated to recommend to its stockholders the approval of this Agreement and the Merger at Giant Stockholders Meeting or solicit proxies in favor of such approval to the extent that the Board of Directors of Giant has duly effected a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 5.7(b).

SECTION 5.5. Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. (a) From and after the Effective Time, Newco shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, an officer or manager of BCH or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Continuing BCH Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities or

judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such person is or was an officer or director of BCH or any of its Subsidiaries, and pertaining to any matter existing or occurring, or any acts or omissions occurring, at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, or at or after, the Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) to the same extent such persons are indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses as of the date hereof by BCH pursuant to BCH’s Certificate of Formation, limited liability company agreement, other governing documents and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date hereof with any directors and officers of BCH and its Subsidiaries.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Newco shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, an officer or director of Giant or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Continuing Giant Indemnified Parties” and, together with the Continuing BCH Indemnified Parties, the “Continuing Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such person is or was an officer or director of Giant or any of its Subsidiaries, and pertaining to any matter existing or occurring, or any acts or omissions occurring, at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, or at or after, the Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) to the same extent such persons are indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses as of the date hereof by Giant pursuant to Giant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws, other governing documents and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date hereof with any directors and officers of Giant and its Subsidiaries.

(c) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Newco shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by BCH (provided that Newco may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or before the Effective Time; provided, however, that Newco shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent such premiums exceed 200% of the premiums paid as of the date hereof by BCH for such insurance (“BCH’s Current Premium”), and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed 200% of BCH’s Current Premium, then Newco shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance that, in Newco’s good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 200% of BCH’s Current Premium.

(d) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Newco shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Giant (provided that Newco may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no

less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or before the Effective Time; provided, however, that Newco shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent such premiums exceed 200% of the premiums paid as of the date hereof by Giant for such insurance (“Giant’s Current Premium”), and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed 200% of Giant’s Current Premium, then Newco shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance that, in Newco’s good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 200% of Giant’s Current Premium.

(e) Newco shall pay (as incurred) all expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, that a Continuing Indemnified Party may incur in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided for in this Section 5.5.

(f) If Newco or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be 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, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Newco, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.5.

(g) The provisions of this Section 5.5, (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Continuing Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and Representatives and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise.

SECTION 5.6. Public Announcements. The parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts (i) to develop a joint communications plan, (ii) to ensure that all press releases and other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consistent with such joint communications plan, and (iii) except in respect of any announcement required by applicable Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any securities exchange in which it is impracticable to consult with each other as contemplated by this clause (iii), to consult with each other before issuing any press release or, to the extent practical, otherwise making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition to the foregoing, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1, no party shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement or disclosure concerning any other party or any other party’s business, financial condition or results of operations without the consent of such other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.

SECTION 5.7. No Solicitation.

(a) Each of BCH, Giant and each Seller agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of its and their respective directors or officers shall, and each of BCH and Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ managers, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, including any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other advisor, agent or representative (collectively, “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly through another Person, (i) solicit, initiate or

knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate, any Takeover Proposal or the making or consummation thereof, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information in connection with, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, any Takeover Proposal or (iii) waive, terminate, modify or fail to enforce any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation of any Person. Each of BCH and Giant shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their directors and officers to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Takeover Proposal and request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Giant Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Takeover Proposal that the Board of Directors of Giant determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and its financial advisors) would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and which Takeover Proposal was not solicited after the date hereof and was made after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.7(a), Giant may, subject to compliance with this Section 5.7, (x) furnish information with respect to Giant and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Takeover Proposal pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (including standstill provisions) not less restrictive to such Person than the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, provided that all such information has previously been provided to BCH or is provided to BCH prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to such Person, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Takeover Proposal regarding such Takeover Proposal, if and only to the extent that in connection with the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), the Board of Directors of Giant concludes in good faith (based on consultation with its outside counsel) that the failure to take such action would be reasonably expected to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

The term “Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer (whether made prior, on or after the date of this Agreement) from any Person relating to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, (i) any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of assets (including equity securities of any Subsidiary of BCH or Giant, as the case may be) or businesses that constitute 15% or more of the revenues, net income or assets of BCH or Giant, as the case may be and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or 15% or more of any class of equity securities of BCH or Giant, as the case may be, (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any Person beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities of BCH or Giant, as the case may be, or (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, share exchange or similar transaction involving BCH or Giant, as the case may be, or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to which any Person or the stockholders of any Person would own 15% or more of any class of equity securities of BCH or Giant or of any resulting parent of BCH or Giant, in each case other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The term “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide written offer made by a third party that if consummated would result in such Person (or its stockholders) owning, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the shares of Giant Common Stock then outstanding (or of the shares of the surviving entity in a merger or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving entity in

a merger) or all or substantially all the assets of Giant, which the Board of Directors of Giant determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and financial advisors) taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal (including any break-up fee, expense reimbursement provisions and conditions to consummation) and the Person making the proposal (i) to be (A) more favorable to the stockholders of Giant from a financial point of view than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after giving effect to any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by BCH in response to such offer or otherwise) and (B) reasonably capable of being completed in a timely manner on the terms set forth in the proposal and (ii) for which financing, to the extent required, is reasonably assured of being obtained.

(b) Neither the Board of Directors of Giant nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw, modify or qualify in any manner adverse to the Giant Recommendation or (B) take any other action or make any public statement in connection with the Giant Recommendation or the Giant Stockholders’ Meeting, or in reference to a Takeover Proposal, that is inconsistent with the Giant Recommendation (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Giant Adverse Recommendation Change”); or (ii) approve, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, adopt or recommend, or allow Giant or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, or other similar contract (other than a confidentiality agreement permitted pursuant to Section 5.7(a)) or any tender or exchange offer providing for, with respect to, or in connection with, any Takeover Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Giant Stockholder Approval and subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 5.7, the Board of Directors of Giant may make a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change if the Board of Directors of Giant has concluded in good faith, after consultation with, and taking into account the advice of, its outside legal advisors, that the failure of the Board of Directors to effect a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change would be reasonably expected to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that Giant shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this sentence unless Giant has: (w) complied in all material respects with this Section 5.7, (x) provided to BCH five Business Days’ prior written notice (such notice, a “Notice of Proposed Recommendation Change”) advising BCH that the Board of Directors of Giant intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail, including, if applicable, the terms and conditions of any Superior Proposal that is the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Directors and the identity of the Person making the proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the terms of any such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Proposed Recommendation Change and an additional two Business Day period), (y) if applicable, provided to BCH all materials and information delivered or made available to the Person or group of persons making any Superior Proposal in connection with such Superior Proposal (to the extent not previously provided), (z) during such five Business Day period (or two Business Day period in the case of an amendment), if requested by BCH, engaged in good faith negotiations with BCH to amend this Agreement or make other agreements in such a manner that failure to take the proposed action by the Board of Directors would not be reasonably expected to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by BCH following a Notice of Proposed Recommendation Change, as a result of the negotiations required by clause

(z) or otherwise). Any Giant Adverse Recommendation Change shall not change the approval of this Agreement or any other approval of the Board of Directors of Giant, including in any respect that would have the effect of causing any state (including Delaware) corporate takeover statute or other similar statute to be applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the Merger.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the obligation of Giant to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Giant Stockholders’ Meeting and to hold a vote of Giant’s stockholders on the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger at the Giant Stockholders’ Meeting shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal), any other matter or by a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change, and (ii) in any case in which Giant makes a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.7, (A) Giant shall nevertheless submit this Agreement and the Merger to a vote of its stockholders and (B) the Proxy Statement and any and all accompanying materials (including the proxy card (which shall provide that signed proxies which do not specify the manner in which the shares of Giant Common Stock subject thereto are to be voted shall be voted “FOR” adopting this Agreement), the “Proxy Materials”) shall be identical in form and content to Proxy Materials that would have been prepared by Giant had no Giant Adverse Recommendation Change been made, except for appropriate changes to the disclosure in the Proxy Statement and the proxy card stating that such Giant Adverse Recommendation Change has been made and, if applicable, providing accurate disclosure of factual information relating to the Takeover Proposal or other matter giving rise to Giant Adverse Recommendation Change to the extent required by applicable Law. Giant agrees that it shall not submit to the vote of its stockholders any Takeover Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) or agree or propose to do so.

(d) In addition to the obligations of Giant set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.7, Giant shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 24 hours after receipt) advise BCH orally and in writing of any Takeover Proposal or any matter giving rise to a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change and the material terms and conditions of any such Takeover Proposal or any matter giving rise to a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change (including any changes thereto) and the identity of the Person making any such Takeover Proposal. Giant shall keep BCH informed on a reasonably current basis of material developments with respect to any such Takeover Proposal or any matter giving rise to a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 5.7 shall prohibit Giant from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) (2) or (3) under the Exchange Act or making a statement required under Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that (i) compliance with such rules shall in no way limit or modify the effect that any such action pursuant to such rules has under this Agreement and (ii) in no event shall Giant or its Board of Directors or any committee thereof take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section 5.7(b).

SECTION 5.8. Affiliates. As soon as practicable following the mailing of the Proxy Statement, Giant shall deliver to BCH and Newco a letter identifying all persons who, in

the reasonable judgment of Giant, at the time this Agreement is submitted for adoption by the stockholders of Giant may be deemed to be “affiliates” of Giant for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act. Giant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Person to deliver to BCH and Newco prior to the Closing Date a written agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the parties hereto, relating to required transfer restrictions on the Newco Common Stock received by them in the Merger pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act.

SECTION 5.9. Stock Exchange Listing. Giant shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause (i) the shares of Newco Common Stock to be issued in the Merger and as Seller Consideration and (ii) the shares of Newco Common Stock to be reserved for issuance upon the exercise, vesting or payment under any Giant Stock Option or Giant Stock Award, to be approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Closing Date.

SECTION 5.10. Employee Benefit Plans. (a) For a period of twelve months following the Effective Time, Newco shall either (i) provide to officers and employees of BCH and its Subsidiaries, who at or after the Effective Time become employees of Newco or its Subsidiaries (“BCH Continuing Employees”), employee benefits under Benefit Plans maintained by Newco, on terms and conditions which are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to such employees immediately prior to the Effective Time, and/or (ii) maintain for the benefit of BCH Continuing Employees the BCH Benefit Plans maintained by BCH immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that Newco may amend any BCH Benefit Plan to comply with any Law or as necessary and appropriate for other business reasons. For a period of twelve months following the Effective Time, Newco shall either (i) provide to officers and employees of Giant and its Subsidiaries, who at or after the Effective Time become employees of Newco or its Subsidiaries (“Giant Continuing Employees”), employee benefits under Benefit Plans maintained by Newco, on terms and conditions which are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to such employees immediately prior to the Effective Time, and/or (ii) maintain for the benefit of Giant Continuing Employees, the Giant Benefit Plans maintained by Giant immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that Newco may amend any Giant Benefit Plan to comply with any Law or as necessary and appropriate for other business reasons. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Newco shall review, evaluate and analyze the BCH Benefit Plans and the Giant Benefit Plans with a view towards developing appropriate and effective Benefit Plans for the benefit of employees of Newco and its Subsidiaries on a going forward basis that does not discriminate between the BCH Continuing Employees and the Giant Continuing Employees (together, the “Newco Continuing Employees”); provided that such new Benefit Plans shall not become effective as to Newco Continuing Employees until a date that is on or after twelve months from the Effective Time. Newco will honor, or cause to be honored, in accordance with their terms, all vested or accrued benefit obligations to, and contractual rights of, the Newco Continuing Employees, including, without limitation, any benefits or rights arising as a result of the Merger (either alone or in combination with any other event). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for a period of twelve months following the Effective Time, BCH Continuing Employees shall be entitled to severance benefits no less favorable than those set forth in Section 5.10(a) of the BCH Disclosure Schedule.

(b) For purposes of eligibility, participation, vesting and benefit accrual (except not for purposes of benefit accrual to the extent that such credit would result in a duplication of benefits) under Newco’s Benefit Plans, service with or credited by BCH or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their predecessors or Giant or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their predecessors shall be treated as service with Newco. To the extent permitted under applicable Law, Newco shall cause welfare Benefit Plans maintained by Newco that cover the Newco Continuing Employees and their dependents after the Effective Time to (i) waive any waiting period and restrictions and limitations for preexisting conditions or insurability (except for pre-existing conditions that were excluded, or restrictions or limitations that were applicable, under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by BCH or Giant), and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments made by the BCH Continuing Employees or Giant Continuing Employees and their dependents under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by BCH or Giant, respectively, to be credited to such Newco Continuing Employees under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by Newco, so as to reduce the amount of any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments payable by such Newco Continuing Employees under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by Newco.

(c) Effective as of the Effective Time, Newco hereby assumes all Benefit Plans maintained by BCH or Giant, as applicable, that require express assumption by any successor to BCH or Giant, as applicable.

(d) Nothing in this Section 5.10 shall be interpreted as preventing Newco, from and after the Effective Time, from amending, modifying or terminating any BCH Benefit Plans, Giant Benefit Plans, or other contracts, arrangements, commitments or understandings, in accordance with their terms and applicable Law.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the parties hereto or their respective officers or directors, except with respect to Section 5.1 (Access to Information; Confidentiality), Section

(b) Giant shall pay BCH a fee equal to $35,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same-day funds on the first Business Day following the date of such termination of this Agreement, in the event that this Agreement is terminated (A) by Sellers Representative or Giant pursuant to Section 7.1(c), following a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change, (B) by Sellers Representative pursuant to Section 7.1(f) following a Giant Adverse Recommendation Change, or (C) by Sellers Representative pursuant to Section 7.1(e).

(d) Giant, BCH and Sellers acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in Sections 7.2(b), (c) and (d) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Giant, BCH and Sellers would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly if Giant fails promptly to pay the amount due pursuant to Section 7.2(b) or 7.2(c) and, in order to obtain such payment, BCH or Sellers commence a suit that results in a judgment against Giant for the Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement Amount or any portion thereof, Giant shall pay to BCH and Sellers its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement Amount or applicable portion

thereof from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A., in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

This Agreement may be amended by the parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors or other similar governing body, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with this Agreement by the stockholders of Giant, but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which by Law requires further approval by such stockholders without such further approval.

Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. The failure of a party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. Any waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given and shall not constitute a waiver to any subsequent or other exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder.

SECTION 7.5. Alternative Structure. The parties hereby agree to cooperate in the consideration of alternative structures to implement the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as long as there is no change in the economic terms thereof and such alternative structure does not impose any material delay on, or condition to, the consummation of the Merger, or adversely affect any of the parties hereto (or, in the case of Giant, on its stockholders taken as a whole or on any individual stockholder holding more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Giant Common Stock).

SECTION 8.4. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to a Section of or 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 phrase “made available” in this Agreement shall mean that the information referred to has been made available by the party to whom such information is to be made available. The phrases “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and words of similar import shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement as a whole, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “or” shall be inclusive and not exclusive. Any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The phrases “known” or “knowledge” mean, with respect to either party to this Agreement, the actual knowledge of those of such party’s executive officers who have been involved in the negotiation of this Agreement, after making reasonable inquiry of the senior manager(s) of such party with primary responsibility for such subject matter.

SECTION 8.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and this Agreement shall become effective when a counterpart signed by each party shall be delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart.

SECTION 8.6. Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to herein) (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (b) except as provided in Section 5.5 (which is intended for the benefit of only the persons specifically named therein), is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

SECTION 8.7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

SECTION 8.8. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and, unless the effect of such invalidity or unenforceability would prevent the parties from realizing the major portion of the economic benefits of the Merger and/or the Exchange that they currently anticipate obtaining therefrom, shall not render invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affect the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

SECTION 8.9. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of the parties hereunder shall be assigned by any party (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 8.10. Submission to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of (i) the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or other appropriate state court in the State of Delaware), and (ii) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each party hereto agrees to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating hereto in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or, if such suit, action or other proceeding may not be brought in such court for reasons of subject matter jurisdiction in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (A) the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, or (B) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has

been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party hereto further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action or other proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by mail to such party at its address set forth in this Agreement, such service of process to be effective upon acknowledgment of receipt of such registered mail; provided that nothing in this Section 8.10 shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. The consent to jurisdiction set forth in this Section 8.10 shall not constitute a general consent to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this Section. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such suit, 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 Law.

SECTION 8.11. Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court identified in the Section above, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

SECTION 8.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY, IN ANY MATTERS (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 8.13. Sellers Representative.

(a) Designation. Sellers have agreed that it is desirable to designate TPG Bluegrass V — AIV 2, L.P., as the representative of Sellers to act on behalf of Sellers under this Agreement (the “Sellers Representative”).

(b) Authority. By executing this Agreement, each Seller hereby irrevocably appoints the Sellers Representative as agent, proxy and attorney in fact for such Sellers for all purposes of this Agreement, including the full power and authority on such Sellers’ behalf to take the actions required or permitted to be taken by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, including (i) acting on behalf of Sellers in any litigation or arbitration involving this Agreement, (ii) executing all such documents as the Sellers Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all amendments, waivers, ancillary agreements, stock powers, certificates and documents that the Sellers Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) doing or refraining from doing any further act or deed in the name of and on behalf of the Sellers that the Sellers Representative deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement as fully and completely as Sellers could do if personally present and (iv) receiving service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement in the name of and on behalf of Sellers. Each Seller agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, are therefore

irrevocable without the consent of the Sellers Representative and shall survive the death, incapacity, bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of any Seller. All decisions and actions by the Sellers Representative (to the extent authorized by and in accordance with this Agreement) shall be binding upon all of Sellers, and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same.

(c) Exculpation; Indemnification. The Sellers Representative shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Seller. The Sellers Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any action taken or omitted by it or any agent employed by it hereunder or under any other document entered into in connection herewith, except that the Sellers Representative shall not be relieved of any liability imposed by Law for willful misconduct. The Sellers Representative shall not be liable to Sellers for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by the Sellers Representative in good faith, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Seller to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from other Sellers any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled. The Sellers Representative shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement. Neither the Sellers Representative nor any agent or advisor employed by it shall incur any liability to any Seller relating to the performance of its duties hereunder, except for actions or omissions constituting fraud or bad faith. The Sellers do hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold the Sellers Representative harmless from and against any and all liability, cost, expense or damage reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of such Sellers Representative’ duties under this Agreement, except for actions or omissions constituting fraud or bad faith.
