<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;) provides in relevant part that a corporation may indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
such person&#146;s conduct was unlawful. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;145(b) of the DGCL provides in relevant part that a corporation may indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The restated certificate of
incorporation of the Company generally provides that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided that except as set forth in the following paragraph, the Company will indemnify any person
seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the board of directors of the Company.&nbsp;Furthermore, the Company will not be obligated
to indemnify a director or officer for costs and expenses relating to proceedings (or any part thereof) instituted against the Company by such director or officer (other than proceedings pursuant to which such director or officer is seeking to
enforce such director&#146;s or officer&#146;s indemnification rights hereunder). The right to indemnification includes the right to be paid the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided,
however, that if the DGCL requires the payment of such expense incurred by a director or officer in such capacity in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, it shall be made only upon delivery of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Company does not pay a claim for indemnification in full within 30 days after a written claim has been received by it, the claimant may
at any time thereafter bring suit to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other
than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Company) that the claimant has not met the
standards of conduct that make it permissible under the DGCL for the Company to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company. Neither the failure by the Company (including by the board

legal counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met
the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by the board of directors, independent legal counsel, or stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct,

certificate of incorporation of the Company also provides for the limitation of liability set forth in Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the DGCL, which permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation
shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The restated certificate of incorporation of the Company allows the Company to maintain insurance, at its
expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the
power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL. Section&nbsp;145(g) of the DGCL provides that a corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability
asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person&#146;s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under that
section.&nbsp;The Company maintains a policy that provides liability insurance for directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The right to indemnification set forth in the restated certificate of incorporation of the Company is not exclusive of any other right that
any person may have or acquire under any statute, any provision of the restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws of the Company, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The employment agreement of Jeffery Smisek provides for indemnification by the Company as provided in the Company&#146;s restated certificate
of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, the Merger Agreement (as defined below) and pursuant to applicable law.&nbsp;The Company&#146;s indemnification obligations under Mr.&nbsp;Smisek&#146;s employment agreement survive the termination
of the employment agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May&nbsp;2, 2010, by and among the Company, Continental and JT
Merger Sub Inc. (the &#147;Merger Agreement&#148;) provides that the Company shall purchase a &#147;tail&#148; directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance policy for Continental and its then current and former directors and officers then
covered by the directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance coverage maintained by Continental in a form reasonably acceptable to Continental that shall provide Continental and such directors and officers with coverage for six years
following the effective time of the merger of JT Merger Sub Inc. into Continental of not less than the existing coverage and have other terms not less favorable to the insured persons than the directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance
coverage then maintained by Continental; provided, however, that in no event will the Company be required to expend for any year of such six-year period an amount in excess of 250% of the annual aggregate premiums currently paid by the Company for
such insurance (the &#147;Maximum Premium&#148;). The Company shall maintain such policy in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder. If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an
annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, the Company will cause to be maintained the most advantageous policies of directors&#146; and officers&#146; insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium. </P>

registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrants have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable. </P>

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") provides in relevant part that a corporation may indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
such person's conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides in relevant part that a corporation may indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
The restated certificate of
incorporation of the Company generally provides that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided that except as set forth in the following paragraph, the Company will indemnify any person
seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the board of directors of the Company. Furthermore, the Company will not be obligated
to indemnify a director or officer for costs and expenses relating to proceedings (or any part thereof) instituted against the Company by such director or officer (other than proceedings pursuant to which such director or officer is seeking to
enforce such director's or officer's indemnification rights hereunder). The right to indemnification includes the right to be paid the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided,
however, that if the DGCL requires the payment of such expense incurred by a director or officer in such capacity in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, it shall be made only upon delivery of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified.
If the Company does not pay a claim for indemnification in full within 30 days after a written claim has been received by it, the claimant may
at any time thereafter bring suit to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other
than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Company) that the claimant has not met the
standards of conduct that make it permissible under the DGCL for the Company to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company. Neither the failure by the Company (including by the board
of directors, independent
4
legal counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met
the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by the board of directors, independent legal counsel, or stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
The restated
certificate of incorporation of the Company also provides for the limitation of liability set forth in Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, which permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation
shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit.
The restated certificate of incorporation of the Company allows the Company to maintain insurance, at its
expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the
power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL. Section 145(g) of the DGCL provides that a corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability
asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under that
section. The Company maintains a policy that provides liability insurance for directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The right to indemnification set forth in the restated certificate of incorporation of the Company is not exclusive of any other right that
any person may have or acquire under any statute, any provision of the restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws of the Company, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
The employment agreement of Jeffery Smisek provides for indemnification by the Company as provided in the Company's restated certificate
of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, the Merger Agreement (as defined below) and pursuant to applicable law. The Company's indemnification obligations under Mr. Smisek's employment agreement survive the termination
of the employment agreement.
The Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 2, 2010, by and among the Company, Continental and JT
Merger Sub Inc. (the "Merger Agreement") provides that the Company shall purchase a "tail" directors' and officers' liability insurance policy for Continental and its then current and former directors and officers then
covered by the directors' and officers' liability insurance coverage maintained by Continental in a form reasonably acceptable to Continental that shall provide Continental and such directors and officers with coverage for six years
following the effective time of the merger of JT Merger Sub Inc. into Continental of not less than the existing coverage and have other terms not less favorable to the insured persons than the directors' and officers' liability insurance
coverage then maintained by Continental; provided, however, that in no event will the Company be required to expend for any year of such six-year period an amount in excess of 250% of the annual aggregate premiums currently paid by the Company for
such insurance (the "Maximum Premium"). The Company shall maintain such policy in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder. If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an
annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, the Company will cause to be maintained the most advantageous policies of directors' and officers' insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the
registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrants have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
