company (&#8220;Parent&#8221;), and Vail Holdings 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (&#8220;Merger Sub&#8221;), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the &#8220;Merger Agreement&#8221;), pursuant to
which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the &#8220;Merger&#8221;), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger as a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent. The Board of Directors of the Company (the &#8220;Board&#8221;) has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger. </P>

result of the Merger, each share of common stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company (&#8220;Company Common Stock&#8221;) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares
(each as defined in the Merger Agreement)) will be converted into the right to receive $28.00 per share in cash (the &#8220;Merger Consideration&#8221;). </P>

Common Stock will be cancelled for no consideration, (ii)&nbsp;each outstanding and unsettled award of restricted stock units that is subject solely to time-based vesting (each, an &#8220;RSU Award&#8221;), other than any RSU Award held by a <FONT

customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants that: (i)&nbsp;the Company will conduct its and each of its subsidiary&#8217;s business in the ordinary and usual course of business
during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, (ii)&nbsp;the Company will not engage in certain types of transactions or take certain actions outside the ordinary course during such period without the
prior consent of Parent, (iii)&nbsp;the Company will cause a special meeting of the holders of Company Common Stock to be held to consider the adoption of the Merger Agreement, and (iv)&nbsp;subject to certain customary exceptions, the Board will
recommend that holders of Company Common Stock vote in favor of adopting the Merger Agreement. The Company has also made certain additional customary covenants, including, among others, covenants not to: (i)&nbsp;solicit or knowingly encourage any
inquiries with respect to certain alternative business combination transactions or (ii)&nbsp;subject to certain exceptions designed to allow the Board to fulfill its fiduciary duties to the Company&#8217;s stockholders, engage in any discussions

contains certain customary termination rights for the Company and Parent, including the Company&#8217;s right to terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a superior proposal subject to compliance with certain procedures specified in the Merger
Agreement. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain specified circumstances, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $36,560,000, which in certain cases is reduced to $16,870,000 during the period ending on
October&nbsp;6, 2025 (the &#8220;Company Termination Payment&#8221;). In addition, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances because of a failure of the Company&#8217;s stockholders to adopt the Merger Agreement,
the Company will be required to reimburse Parent for its transaction expenses in an amount equal to $3,500,000.</P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

of any law or order prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, (iii)&nbsp;expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, (iv) no Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger
