(c) Dispute Resolution.  Within 30 days after the Stockholders’ Agent receipt of the Closing Statement, the Stockholders’ Agent shall deliver to the Parent a written statement either accepting the Closing Statement or specifying any objections thereto in reasonable detail (an “Objections Statement”), which objections shall be in reasonable detail describing the nature and amount of the disagreement(s) asserted.  If the Stockholders’ Agent does not deliver an Objections Statement within such 30-day period, then the Closing Statement shall become final and binding upon all parties.  If the Stockholders’ Agent does deliver an Objections Statement within such 30-day period, then the Stockholders’ Agent and the Parent shall negotiate in good faith for 15 days following Parent’s receipt of such Objections Statement to resolve such objections (any unresolved objection, a “Dispute”).  After such 15-day period, any item or matter set forth in the Closing Statement that is not a Dispute shall become final and binding upon all parties.  If the Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent are unable to resolve all objections during such 15-day period, then any remaining Disputes, and only such remaining Disputes, shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm.  The Accounting Firm shall be instructed to resolve any such remaining Disputes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within 15 days after its appointment (or such longer period as the Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent may agree).  The resolution of such Disputes by the Accounting Firm (i) shall be set forth in writing, (ii) shall be within the range of dispute between the Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent, (iii) shall constitute an arbitral award, and (iv) shall be conclusive and binding upon all the parties upon which a judgment may be rendered by a court having proper jurisdiction thereover.  Upon delivery of such resolution, the Closing Statement, as modified in accordance with such resolution, shall become final and binding upon all parties.
 
(d) Fees and Expenses of Accounting Firm.  The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by either the Parent or the Eligible Stockholders as follows:  (i) if the Accounting Firm determines that the Net Working Capital is nearer to the Net Working Capital determined by the Stockholders’ Agent than to the Net Working Capital determined by Parent, then Parent shall bear the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm, and (ii) if the Accounting Firm determines that the Net Working Capital is nearer to the Net Working Capital determined by Parent than to the Net Working Capital determined by the Stockholders’ Agent, then the Eligible Stockholders shall bear the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm.
 
(e) Final Adjustment Amounts.  The post-closing adjustment shall be an amount equal to the Net Working Capital as set forth in the final Closing Statement minus the Working Capital Target (the “Post-Closing Adjustment”).  If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, then the Aggregate Final Payment Date Cash Consideration shall be reduced by an amount of cash equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment (the “Difference”); if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, then the Aggregate Final Payment Date Cash Consideration shall be increased by an amount of cash equal to the Difference.  The Parties agree that, if the Post-Closing Adjustment has not yet been determined as of the Final Payment Date, but the Closing Statement (if it were to become final and binding) would trigger a downward adjustment to the Merger Consideration under this Section 1.7(e), then Parent may, in its sole discretion, hold back the amount in cash of the hypothetical Difference pursuant to that Closing Statement from the Aggregate Final Payment Date Cash Consideration, provided that the Parent shall release any portion of such held back amount that is determined to be Aggregate Final Payment Date Cash Consideration promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment.
 
1.8 Recapitalization Adjustments of Consideration.  In the event of a Recapitalization, the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares that were part of the Escrow Amount, even if they have been used to satisfy one or more claims for indemnification) shall be subject to proportional adjustment after the Closing as specified in this Section 1.8 (provided that the full amount of any such adjustment allocable to the Escrow Amount shall be made to the shares remaining in the Escrow Amount):
 
(a) If upon giving effect to such Recapitalization and as of immediately prior to a Subsequent Public Offering, the shares constituting the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares that were part of the Escrow Amount, even if they have been used to satisfy one or more claims for indemnification) collectively represent less than 13.17% of the Fully-Diluted Shares, then Parent shall issue such additional number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be added to the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount as is necessary so that the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration  and the Escrow Amount (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares that were part of the Escrow Amount, even if they have been used to satisfy one or more claims for indemnification) collectively represent 13.17% of the Fully-Diluted Shares.  For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no additional consideration, in any form, shall be due or payable to Parent on account of such adjustment and (ii) such adjustment shall occur ratably between the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount.
 
(b) If upon giving effect to such Recapitalization and as of immediately prior to a Subsequent Public Offering, the shares constituting the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares that were part of the Escrow Amount, even if they have been used to satisfy one or more claims for indemnification) collectively represent greater than 17.55% of the Fully-Diluted Shares as of such time, then Parent shall cancel such number of shares of Parent Common Stock constituting Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount as is necessary so that the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares that were part of the Escrow Amount, even if they have been used to satisfy one or more claims for indemnification) collectively represent 17.55% of the Fully-Diluted Shares as of such time.  For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no additional consideration, in any form, shall be due or payable to the Eligible Stockholders on account of such adjustment and (ii) such adjustment shall occur ratably between the Aggregate Closing Date Stock Consideration and the Escrow Amount.

(a) Transaction Expenses.  Each of the parties shall pay its own fees, costs and expenses incurred by it relating to this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses payable to the Company’s legal and financial advisors.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Transaction Expenses shall be paid directly by Parent to the service providers owed such Transaction Expenses as follows: (i) the Transaction Expenses identified as “Closing Transaction Expenses” on Exhibit H at Closing and (ii) the Transaction Expenses identified as “Final Payment Date Transaction Expenses” on Exhibit H plus on the Final Payment Date.
 
(b) Management Cash Transaction Bonus Payments.  Parent shall cause Surviving Corporation to pay to each individual listed on Exhibit J, through a Surviving Corporation payroll account, the amount set forth opposite such individual’s name on such payment dates set forth on Exhibit J, less any Taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 1.11(h); provided that all applicable terms and conditions under the Management Bonus Plan have been satisfied prior to the applicable payment date.  Parent will transfer a portion of the Merger Consideration to a Surviving Corporation payroll account to enable Surviving Corporation to make such payments.
 
(c) Closing Bonus Payments.  Parent will cause Surviving Corporation to pay to each individual listed on Exhibit L, through a Surviving Corporation payroll account, the amount set forth in the column opposite such individual's name (collectively the “Closing Bonus Payments”), less any Taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 1.11(h), as promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, but in no event later than December 31, 2013.  Parent will transfer a portion of the Merger Consideration to a Surviving Corporation payroll account to enable Surviving  Corporation to make such payments.
 
(d) Premium Payments.                                On the Final Payment Date, Parent shall pay (or, as indicated on Exhibit K, cause Surviving Corporation to pay through a Surviving Corporation payroll account)  to each Person listed on Exhibit K a premium payment (a “Premium Payment”) in the amount set forth opposite such Person’s name, less any Taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 1.11(h).  The Premium Payments shall be paid directly by the Parent and shall not reduce the Merger Consideration or be deemed Damages subject to indemnification pursuant to Article 5.  To the extent a Premium Payment is being provided to a then current employee of the Surviving Corporation, Parent will transfer such funds to a Surviving Corporation payroll account to enable Surviving Corporation to make such payments.
 
(e) The Company shall take (or cause to be taken) such actions that are necessary to amend the arrangements with the service providers owed Transaction Expenses and the Management Bonus Plan to provide for payment of Transaction Expenses at the time and in the manner set forth in Section 1.9.
 
1.10 Dissenting Shares.
 
(a) Effect on Dissenting Shares.  Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Capital Stock held by a holder who has demanded and perfected such demand for appraisal of such holder’s shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and has neither effectively withdrawn nor lost such holder’s right to such appraisal (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the applicable Merger Consideration, but shall be canceled and shall cease to exist and shall represent the right only to receive such rights as are granted by the DGCL.  Parent shall be entitled to retain any Merger Consideration not paid on account of such Dissenting Shares pending resolution of the claims of such holders, and the Eligible Stockholders shall not be entitled to any portion thereof.
 
(b) Loss of Dissenting Share Status. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.10(a), if any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock who demands appraisal of such holder’s shares under the DGCL shall effectively withdraw or lose (through the failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s right to appraisal, then as of the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares of Company Capital Stock shall automatically be converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, as and when payable pursuant to this Agreement.
 
(c) Notice of Dissenting Shares.  The Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, shall give the Stockholders’ Agent: (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock received by the Surviving Corporation or Parent, withdrawals of any demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Surviving Corporation or Parent; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands for appraisal, provided that the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall have the right to direct all such negotiations and proceedings.  Neither the Surviving Corporation nor Parent shall, except with the prior written consent of the Stockholders’ Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock or offer to settle any such demands in each case for any amount in excess of what is payable by Parent in accordance with this Agreement with respect to such shares of Company Capital Stock and other than by operation of law or pursuant to a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Stockholders’ Agent shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock or offer to settle any such demands other than by operation of law or pursuant to a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

1.11 Exchange of Certificates.
 
(a) Letter of Transmittal – Capital Stock. Not later than ten (10) days following the Effective Time, Parent shall mail, or cause to be mailed, to each record holder of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal to be mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company (which shall specify that delivery of Company Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to Parent, and a provision whereby such holder agrees to be bound by the provisions of Articles  5 and 6 and Section 11.1 and a covenant to become a “Stockholder” under the Stockholders Agreement ) (a “Letter of Transmittal”); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the exchange of Company Stock Certificates for the Merger Consideration payable with respect to such Company Capital Stock.  Upon the surrender to Parent of a Company Stock Certificate (or an indemnity agreement as described in Section 1.11(d)), together with a duly executed Letter of Transmittal, the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.  From and after the Effective Time, each Company Stock Certificate which prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Company Capital Stock shall be deemed to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable with respect to such shares, and the holder of each such Company Stock Certificate shall cease to have any rights with respect to the shares of Company Capital Stock formerly represented thereby.  Parent shall have the option of appointing an exchange agent approved by the Stockholders’ Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to carry out the provisions of this Section 1.11.
 
(b) Payments to Others.  If payment or issuance of Merger Consideration in respect of shares of Company Capital Stock converted pursuant to this Agreement is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name a surrendered Company Stock Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of such payment in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Stock Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not payable.
 
(c) Stock Transfer Books.  As of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall not be any further registration of transfers of shares of Company Capital Stock thereafter on the records of the Company.  If, after the Effective Time, certificates for shares of Company Capital Stock (“Company Stock Certificates”) are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration payable with respect to such shares as provided for in this Article 1.  No interest shall accrue or be paid on any Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of a Company Stock Certificate which immediately before the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock.
 
(d) Lost Certificates.  In the event any Company Stock Certificate representing shares of Company Capital Stock converted in connection with the Merger pursuant to Section 1.5 shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of any Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Company Capital Stock previously represented by such Company Stock Certificate, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate and reasonable indemnity agreement providing for indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any affiliated party with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.
 
(e) Dividends.  No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby, until such holder surrenders such Company Stock Certificate or, if such Company Stock Certificate is lost or stolen, such holder delivers the indemnity agreement referred to in paragraph (d) above, in accordance with this Section 1.11 (at which time such holder shall be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws and subject to Section 1.11(g), to receive all such dividends and distributions).
 
(f) Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued, no certificates for any such fractional shares shall be issued and no cash payment in lieu of any fractional share shall be paid to any holder in connection with the Merger.  After aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Stock due to a particular Eligible Stockholder pursuant to Section 1.5, any remaining fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
 
(g) Escheat.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Parent nor any other Person shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock or to any other Person for any amount paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Legal Requirement.  Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Capital Stock and/or Company Options at such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Body shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, become the property of Parent free and clear of any Encumbrance.
 
(h) Withholding.  Each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or issuable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom or in connection therewith under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law or similar Legal Requirement or under any other applicable Legal Requirement.  To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid to the appropriate Governmental Bodies, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.  To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Body by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall deliver a notice to the affected security holder of the amount so deducted, withheld or paid over.

(c) Damage to Parent.  The parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Surviving Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Company, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Corporation as a Parent Indemnitee) Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of equity interest in the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach (it being, understood, however, that the Parent Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover more than once for the same Damages).
 
(d) Calculation of Damages; Insurance Proceeds and Tax Benefits.  For the purposes of calculating Damages indemnifiable under this Section 5.2, Damages (i) shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Damages constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreements and (ii) shall be reduced by the amount of Tax Benefits attributable to such Damages.  The Stockholder Indemnitors shall not be liable under this Article 5 for any Damages relating to any matter to the extent that there is included a specific Liability or reserve relating to such matter in the Unaudited Interim Financial Statements; provided, that the Stockholder Indemnitors shall be liable for any Damages in excess of the amount stated in the Unaudited Interim Financial Statements.

(e) Duty to Mitigate.  Each Indemnitee shall take all action required by applicable Laws, and shall otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts, to mitigate any and all Damages for which it seeks indemnification hereunder upon becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Damages; provided, that this shall in no event limit recovery for Damages actually paid out in connection with any Third Party Claim .

(c) Parent Cap.  Except in the case of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, the total amount of indemnification payments that Parent can be required to make to the Stockholder Indemnitees pursuant to this Article 5 shall be limited to 15% of the Merger Consideration (the “Parent Cap”).  In the case of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, Parent shall be liable for such Damages.  All payments made to satisfy any indemnification obligations to the Stockholder Indemnities pursuant to this Article 5 shall be paid at the option of the Parent, in cash or in Parent Common Stock.
 
(d) Stockholder Cap and Other Limitations.  Except in the case of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, and with regard to the Company Fundamental Reps, the total amount of indemnification payments that the Stockholder Indemnitors can be required to make to the Parent Indemnitees pursuant to this Article 5 shall be limited to the Escrow Amount.  In the case of claims for indemnification relating to the Company Fundamental Reps, the total amount of indemnification payments that a Stockholder Indemnitor can be required to make to the Parent Indemnitees pursuant to this Article 5 shall be limited to Merger Consideration Actually Received by such Stockholder Indemnitor (which shall include its Pro Rata Portion of any remaining Escrow Amounts at the time of such claim). In the case of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, the Parent Indemnitees who directly perpetrate such misrepresentation or fraud shall be liable for such Damages.  Liability of the Stockholder Indemnitors will be several and not joint except to the extent of the Escrow Amount; provided however, that no Stockholder Indemnitors shall be liable for the intentional misrepresentation or fraud of another party.  For the purposes of this Section 5.3(d), “Merger Consideration Actually Received” means the cash amounts received and the shares of Parent Common Stock held by a Stockholder Indemnitor, provided, that if such Stockholder Indemnitor has sold any shares of Parent Common Stock in the open market in an arms-length transaction at the time of such indemnification payment, the “Merger Consideration Actually Received” will also include any consideration actually received upon the sale of such shares of Parent Common Stock.
 
5.4 No Contribution.  Each Stockholder Indemnitor waives, and acknowledges and agrees that he shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against Merger Sub or the Company in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other Liability to which he may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement or any other agreement or document delivered to Parent in connection with this Agreement.
 
5.5 Claims Procedures.  Any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement pursuant to Section 5 shall be brought and resolved exclusively as follows:
 
(a) If any Indemnitee has or claims in good faith to have incurred or suffered Damages for which it is or may be entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Article 5 (a “Claim”) on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the Expiration Date, subject to the limitations set forth in Article 5, such Indemnitee may deliver a claim notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Stockholders’ Agent, in the case of a Parent Indemnitee, or to the Parent, in the case of a Stockholder Indemnitee (such recipient being, the “Claim Notice Recipient”), promptly (and in no event later than 15 days) after such Indemnitee becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under Section 5.2.  The failure of any Indemnitee to timely give notice hereunder shall not affect the rights to indemnification hereunder except and only to the extent of actual, material damage to the Stockholder Indemnitors or Parent Indemnitor, as applicable.  Each Claim Notice shall: (i) state that the Indemnitee believes in good faith that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Article 5; (ii) contain a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting the Indemnitee’s claim; and (iii) if practicable, contain a non-binding, preliminary, good faith estimate of the amount to which the Indemnitee claims to be entitled (the aggregate amount of such estimate, as it may be modified by the Indemnitee in good faith from time to time, being referred to as the “Claimed Amount”).  Following the delivery of a Claim Notice by a Parent Indemnitee, the Stockholders’ Agent and its representatives and agents shall be given reasonable access to the books and records of the Surviving Corporation and to such personnel or representatives of the Surviving Corporation and Parent, including but not limited to the individuals responsible for the matters that are subject of the Claim Notice, as they may reasonably require for the purposes of investigating or resolving any disputes or responding to any matters or inquiries raised in the Claim Notice.
 
 
33

 
(b) During the thirty (30)-day period commencing upon receipt by the Claim Notice Recipient of a Claim Notice from an Indemnitee (the “Dispute Period”), the Claim Notice Recipient may deliver to the Indemnitee who delivered the Claim Notice a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Claim Notice Recipient: (i) agrees that the full Claimed Amount is due and payable to the Indemnitee; (ii) agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (such amount in clause (i) or (ii), an “Agreed Amount”) is due and payable to the Indemnitee; (iii) indicates that no part of the Claimed Amount is due and payable to the Indemnitee or (iv) requests such additional information as the Claim Notice Recipient may reasonably require in order to determine whether all or part of such Claimed Amount is due and payable to the Indemnitee.  Any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed to be due and payable to the Indemnitee pursuant to the Response Notice (or the entire Claimed Amount, if the Claim Notice Recipient asserts in the Response Notice that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee) being referred to as the “Contested Amount”.  If a Response Notice is not received by the Indemnitee from the Claim Notice Recipient prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period, then the Claim Notice Recipient shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the full Claimed Amount referred to in the applicable Claim Notice is due and payable to the Indemnitee and such amount shall also be deemed to be an “Agreed Amount.”
 
(c) If the Claim Notice Recipient delivers a Response Notice in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(iv), the Indemnitee will respond (a “Further Information Notice”) to such Response Notice within thirty (30) days after receipt of such Response Notice, and the Claim Notice Recipient shall provide a Response Notice in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of such Further Information Notice.
 
(d) If the Claim Notice Recipient in its Response Notice agrees that an Agreed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee, or if no Response Notice is received by the Indemnitee from the Claim Recipient prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period, then (i) within three Business Days following the earlier of the delivery of such Response Notice or the expiration of the Dispute Period, (A) if the Parent is the Indemnitee, then, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.3, the Stockholders’ Agent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to remove from the Escrow Account and return to Parent such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as are equal to (x) such Agreed Amount divided by (y) the Average Per Share Price as of such date; provided that, to the extent such Agreed Amount exceeds the balance of the Escrow Amount, and the Damages relate to a breach of the Company Fundamental Reps or to misrepresentation or fraud, each Eligible Stockholder shall pay its several portion of such excess of such Agreed Amount above the balance of the Escrow Account, or (B) if the Stockholders Indemnitee is the Indemnitee, then, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.3, Parent shall pay the Agreed Amount to the Stockholder Indemnitees in cash; and each Eligible Stockholder shall be entitled to receive its Pro Rata Portion of such Agreed Amount with respect to each share of Company Capital Stock owned by such Eligible Stockholder as of the Effective Time.  Following a distribution from the Escrow Amount pursuant to subsection (A) above, the Escrow Amount shall be reduced by such Agreed Amount as of the date of such distribution.
 
(e) If any Response Notice expressly indicates that there is a Contested Amount, the Claim Notice Recipient and the Indemnitee shall attempt in good faith for a period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days, unless otherwise mutually agreed, to resolve the dispute related to the Contested Amount.  If the Claim Notice Recipient and the Indemnitee resolve such dispute, such resolution shall be binding on all of the Eligible Stockholders, Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and such Indemnitee, and a settlement agreement stipulating the amount owed to such Indemnitee shall be signed by such Indemnitee and the Claim Notice Recipient and the amount so stipulated in such settlement agreement shall be treated as an Agreed Amount.  If no such agreement can be reached during such ten (10) Business Day period, then Parent or the Stockholders’ Representative may institute proceedings in court in accordance with Section 11.8 to resolve any such dispute.  Each of Parent and Stockholders’ Representative shall in all instances seek to resolve such disputes in as expeditious a manner as practicable.
 
5.6 Defense of Third-Party Claims.  Any written assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against Merger Sub, the Company, Parent, any Eligible Stockholder or any other Person) with respect to which any Indemnitor may become obligated to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate or reimburse any Indemnitee pursuant to this Article 5 (“Third Party Claims”) shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions:
 
(a) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall give the Stockholders’ Agent (if the Indemnitee is a Parent Indemnitee) or Parent (if the Indemnitee is a Stockholder Indemnitee) notice of such Third Party Claim promptly, and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days following the receipt by the Indemnitee of such notice; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release an Indemnitor from any of its obligations under this Article 5 except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such Legal Proceeding.  The notice of claim shall describe in reasonable detail the facts known to the Indemnitee giving rise to such indemnification claim, and to the extent determinable the amount or good faith estimate of the amount arising therefrom.
 
(b) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a notice of a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 5.6(a) for which Parent would be an Indemnitor, Parent may, upon written notice thereof to the Stockholders’ Agent, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim.  The Stockholders’ Agent and the Stockholder Indemnitees shall cooperate with Parent in such defense and make available to Parent all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Stockholder Indemnitees’ possession or under the Stockholder Indemnitees’ control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by Parent.  The Stockholders’ Agent shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the defense of a Third Party Claim assumed by Parent, at the Stockholder Indemnitors’ expense, by retaining independent legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Parent determines that a conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest exists between the Stockholder Indemnitees and Parent, the Stockholders’ Agent may retain one (1) independent legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent, and Parent shall pay such reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as are acceptable to Parent; provided that none of the Stockholders’ Agent, the Eligible Stockholders shall settle, compromise or discharge a Third Party Claim without Parent’s prior written consent, which consent will be in Parent’s sole discretion.
 
 
34

 
(c) If a Parent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification from the Stockholder Indemnitors in connection with a Third Party Claim, it shall obtain reimbursement from the Escrow Amount, by directing the Escrow Agent to remove from the Escrow Account and return to Parent on the next Distribution Date such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as are equal to (x) the total amount of its Damages, including the amount of such reimbursable legal fees and expenses actually incurred, divided by (y) the Average Per Share Price as of such date.  Following such a distribution from the Escrow Amount, the Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such Damages as of the date of such distribution.
 
5.7 Remedies Exclusive; Sole Recourse.  From and after the Effective Time, the rights of the Indemnitees to indemnification relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be strictly limited to those contained in this Article 5 and Article 5.7, and such indemnification rights shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Indemnitees subsequent to the Effective Time with respect to any matter in any way relating to this Agreement or the Merger or arising in connection herewith or therewith.  The return to Parent of shares of Parent Common Stock from the Escrow Amount shall be the Parent Indemnitees’ sole recourse for all Damages, except with regard to the Company Fundamental Reps and misrepresentation or fraud, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 5 and the provisions of Article 5.7.  Except as provided in this Article 5, no claim, action or remedy shall be brought or maintained by any party against any other party, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misstatement or omission respecting an inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of any of the parties hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement.
 
5.8 Conflict of Interest and Privilege.  The parties acknowledge that the Company has retained Perkins Coie LLP (“PC”) to act as its counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, that PC has not acted as counsel for any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including any holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock or Stockholders’ Agent), and that none of the other parties, including the Company, has the status of a client of PC for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof.  Parent and Company hereby agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Parent (including and/or the Surviving Corporation) and any holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock or Stockholders’ Agent, PC may represent any holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock and/or Stockholders’ Agent in such dispute even though the interests of any holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock or Stockholders’ Agent may be directly adverse to the Parent, the other holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock, Stockholders’ Agent, or the Company, and even though PC may have represented the Surviving Corporation (including the Company as its predecessor in interest) in a matter substantially related to such dispute or may be handling ongoing matters for the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (including the Company as its predecessor in interest).  Parent further agrees that, as to all communications among PC and the Company, any holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock and/or Stockholders’ Agent that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the exception of client confidence belongs solely to the Stockholders’ Agent and may be controlled only by the Stockholders’ Agent and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation (including the Company as its predecessor in interest), because the interests of the Parent and its Affiliates were directly adverse to the Company, the holders of the Company’s outstanding Capital Stock and/or Stockholders’ Agent at the time such communications were made.  This right to the attorney-client privilege shall exist even if such communications may exist on Surviving Corporation’s computer system or in documents in the Surviving Corporation’s possession.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation, and a Person other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Surviving Corporation may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third-party of confidential communications by PC to the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Stockholders’ Agent.
 
6. ESCROW
 
6.1 Establishment of Escrow.  At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Escrow Amount to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, a New York limited liability trust company,  or such other escrow agent as may be mutually agreed by the Parties (the “Escrow Agent”) as security for any indemnification payments required to be made to Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to Article 5 hereof.  The Escrow Agent shall deposit the Escrow Amount into an account owned by Parent (the “Escrow Account”) and shall hold the Escrow Amount pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement to be agreed by the Parties in good faith and acting reasonably.  The shares of Parent Common Stock constituting the Escrow Amount shall accrue dividends as if such shares were issued as Merger Consideration as of the Effective Time, provided that no dividends that would otherwise be required to be paid on such shares shall be paid unless and until such shares are released to the Eligible Stockholders in accordance with this Article 6.  The Escrow Amount shall be reduced from time to time as set forth in Section 5.5, Section 5.6 and this Article 6 and shall be delivered to the Eligible Stockholders at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 5.5, Section 5.6 and this Article 6.  Upon Parent’s request, the Escrow Agent shall return to Parent any portion of the Escrow Amount attributable to any Dissenting Shares.
 
6.2 Establishment of Escrow Expense Fund.  Parent shall deposit the Closing Date Escrow Expense Fund Amount and the Final Payment Date Expense Fund Amount with the Escrow Agent, at such times pursuant to Section 1.6(a) without any act of the Stockholder Indemnitors, such deposits of the Closing Date Escrow Expense Fund Amount and the Final Payment Date Expense Fund Amount shall constitute the Escrow Expense Fund, a separate escrow fund to be governed by the terms set forth herein. Any amounts in the Escrow Expense Fund shall be available solely to (i) compensate the Stockholders’ Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, and (ii) pay any third-party expenses incurred in connection with the defense, investigation, or settlement of any claim from an Parent Indemnitee or any Third Party Claim under which Parent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification by Stockholder Indemnitors under to this Agreement, as well as any costs and expenses associated with the Escrow Expense Fund. The Stockholders’ Agent shall have full discretion over the Escrow Expense Fund, and the Escrow Agent shall follow any lawful directive of the Stockholders’ Agent regarding the use or disbursement of all or a portion of the Escrow Expense Fund (to the extent any amount is available thereunder) to third parties and in amounts authorized in writing by the Stockholders’ Agent.
 
 
35

 
6.3 Release of Escrow Amount and Escrow Expense Fund.
 
(a) Within three (3) Business Days after the Expiration Date (the “Initial Distribution Date”) the Eligible Stockholders shall receive, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (A) minus (B) minus (C), where (A) equals the then-remaining Escrow Amount; (B) equals all shares constituting an Agreed Amount that have not already been distributed to the Parent pursuant to Section 5.5; and (C) equals any outstanding Claimed Amount (excluding any shares constituting an Agreed Amount that already have been distributed to the Eligible Stockholders pursuant to Section 5.5) (such aggregate amount, the “Initial Distribution Date Amount”).  On the Initial Distribution Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to each Eligible Stockholder its Pro Rata Portion of the Initial Distribution Date Amount (less the portion of such amount that constitutes the Aggregate Management Delayed Stock Consideration) with respect to each share of Company Capital Stock owned by such Eligible Stockholder as of the Effective Time.  Following the Initial Distribution Date, the Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the Agreed Amount as of such date and the number of shares distributed to Eligible Stockholders with respect to such Initial Distribution Date.  If there is no outstanding Claimed Amount on the Initial Distribution Date, the Initial Distribution Date Amount shall also include any remaining amount in the Escrow Expense Fund.
 
(b) After the Initial Distribution Date, within three (3) Business Days after the date on which any Claims with respect to any outstanding Claimed Amount as of the Initial Distribution Date are fully and finally resolved pursuant to a Final Resolution (a “Post-Initial Distribution Date”) the Eligible Stockholders shall receive, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (A) minus (B) minus (C), where (A) equals the then remaining Escrow Amount, (B) equals all shares constituting an Agreed Amount that have not already been distributed to the Parent pursuant to Section 5.5; and (C) equals any outstanding Claimed Shares (excluding any shares constituting an Agreed Amount that already have been distributed to the Eligible Stockholders pursuant to Section 5.5) (such aggregate amount, the “Post-Initial Distribution Date Amount”).  On each Post-Initial Distribution Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to each Eligible Stockholder its Pro Rata Portion of each such Post-Initial Distribution Date Amount (less the portion of such amount that constitutes the Aggregate Management Delayed Stock Consideration) with respect to each share of Company Capital Stock held by such Eligible Stockholder as of the Effective Time.  Following a Post-Initial Distribution Date, the Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the Agreed Amount as of such date and the number of shares distributed to Eligible Stockholders with respect to such Post-Initial Distribution Date.  If there was any outstanding Claimed Amount on the Initial Distribution Date, the final Post-Initial Distribution Date Amount shall include any remaining amount in the Escrow Expense Fund.
 
(c) Any shares of Parent Common Stock required to be delivered to the Eligible Stockholders pursuant to Section 6.3(a) or 6.3(b), shall be delivered by the Escrow Agent directly to the Eligible Stockholders, provided that the Stockholders’ Agent shall have delivered to Parent and Escrow Agent on the Expiration Date an updated Allocation Spreadsheet setting forth the Pro Rata Portion of such shares to be delivered to each Eligible Stockholder, the names of each Eligible Stockholder in which such shares are to be issued and cash paid and, to the extent any update has been received by the Stockholders’ Agent, a mailing address where delivery of such shares and cash may be made to each such Eligible Stockholder.
 
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Article 5 or this Article 6, any Stockholder Indemnitor may elect, in his, her or its sole discretion, to satisfy any indemnification obligations owed to a Parent Indemnitee under Article 5 in cash rather than shares of Parent Common Stock.
 
6.4 Indemnification of Escrow Agent.  The Parent on the one hand (solely through the Escrow Amount and not directly) and the Stockholders’ Agent (solely on behalf of the Eligible Stockholders and in its capacity as the Stockholders’ Agent, not in its individual capacity through the Escrow Amount and not directly) agree to indemnify the Escrow Agent for, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Escrow Agent, arising out of or in connection with its carrying out of its duties hereunder. The Parent, on the one hand, and the Escrow Amount, on the other hand, shall each be liable for one-half of such amounts and such amounts shall not be deemed as Damages to either party pursuant to Article 5. In the event the Escrow Amount is insufficient to cover the one-half of such amounts for which it is responsible, such shortfall shall be paid by the Parent.

(a) Appointment.  By virtue of the adoption of this Agreement, the Eligible Stockholders irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the agent and true and lawful attorney in fact of the stockholders (the “Stockholders’ Agent”), with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of the Eligible Stockholders for purposes of executing any documents and taking any actions that the Stockholders’ Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate to carry out the intent of this Agreement, including any claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Article 5 and any amendment to this Agreement following the Effective Time.  Shareholder Representative Services LLC hereby accepts its appointment as Stockholders’ Agent.
 
(b) Authority.  The Eligible Stockholders grant to the Stockholders’ Agent full authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file on behalf of such Eligible Stockholders (in the name of any or all of the Eligible Stockholders or otherwise) any and all documents that the Stockholders’ Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as the Stockholders’ Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in performing its duties as contemplated by Section 11.1(a).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby: (i) each Indemnitee shall be entitled to deal exclusively with the Stockholders’ Agent on all matters relating to this Agreement, including any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Article 5; and (ii) each Indemnitee shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Eligible Stockholder by the Stockholders’ Agent, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Eligible Stockholder by the Stockholders’ Agent, as fully binding upon such Eligible Stockholder.
 
(c) Power of Attorney.  The Eligible Stockholders recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted in Section 11.1(a): (i) is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; (ii) may be delegated by the Stockholders’ Agent; and (iii) shall survive the death or incapacity of each of the Eligible Stockholders.
 
(d) Binding Power.  The Eligible Stockholders shall be bound by all actions taken by the Stockholders’ Agent in its capacity thereof pursuant to the authority granted in Sections 11.1(a) and (b). The Stockholders’ Agent shall at all times act in its capacity as Stockholders’ Agent in a manner that the Stockholders’ Agent believes to be in the best interest of the Eligible Stockholders.  Neither the Stockholders’ Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees, if any, shall be liable to any Person for any error of judgment, or any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken under this Agreement, except in the case of its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  The Stockholders’ Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it.  The Stockholders’ Agent shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement.  Each Eligible Stockholder shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless and reimburse the Stockholders’ Agent from and against any and all liabilities, losses, Damages, claims, costs or expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Agent Losses”) suffered or incurred by the Stockholders’ Agent arising out of or in connection with the Stockholders’ Agent’s execution and performance of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Stockholders’ Agent under this Agreement, , the Escrow Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, in each case as such Agent Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Agent Loss is finally adjudicated to have been primarily caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Stockholders’ Agent, the Stockholders’ Agent will reimburse the Eligible Stockholders the amount of such indemnified Agent Losses attributable to such gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Stockholders’ Agent by the Eligible Stockholders, any such Agent Losses may be recovered by the Stockholders’ Agent from (i) the funds in the Escrow Expense Fund and (ii) the shares in the Escrow Amount at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Eligible Stockholders; provided, that while this section allows the Stockholders’ Agent to be paid from the Escrow Expense Fund and the Escrow Amount, this does not relieve the Eligible Stockholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Agent Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Stockholders’ Agent from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise.  In no event will the Stockholders’ Agent be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Eligible Stockholders or otherwise. The Eligible Stockholders acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnities will survive the resignation or removal of the Stockholders’ Agent or the termination of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Stockholders’ Agent shall not in any manner exercise, or seek to exercise, any voting power whatsoever with respect to shares of capital stock of the Company or Parent now or hereafter owned of record or beneficially by any Eligible Stockholders unless the Stockholders’ Agent is expressly authorized to do so in a writing signed by such Eligible Stockholders.
 
(e) Replacement.  If the Stockholders’ Agent shall resign, be dissolved or otherwise be unable to fulfill its responsibilities hereunder, the Eligible Stockholders shall (by consent of those Persons entitled to at least a majority of the Merger Consideration), within 10 days after such death, disability, resignation or inability, appoint a successor to the Stockholders’ Agent (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to Parent) and immediately thereafter notify Parent of the identity of such successor.  Any such successor shall succeed the Stockholders’ Agent as Stockholders’ Agent hereunder.  If for any reason there is no Stockholders’ Agent at any time, all references herein to the Stockholders’ Agent shall be deemed to refer to the Eligible Stockholders.
