1.3Effect on Capital Stock and Options.

(a)Treatment of Company Capital Stock and Company Options and Company Warrants. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party hereto, Company Stockholder, Company Optionholder, Company Warrantholder or any other Person:
(i)Company Series A Stock. Each share of Company Series A Stock held by a Converting Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.4, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series A Per Share Amount. The amount of cash each Converting Holder holding shares of Company Series A Stock is entitled to receive for such shares of Company Series A Stock shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all shares of Company Series A Stock held by such Converting Holder.

(ii)Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock, including any Unvested Company Shares, held by a Converting Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares that are owned by the Company as treasury stock) shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.4, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Common Per Share Amount. The amount of cash each Converting Holder holding shares of Company Common Stock is entitled to receive for such shares of Company Common Stock shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all shares of Company Common Stock held by such Converting Holder.

(iii)Company Options. Each Company Option, whether vested or unvested, that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be terminated and cancelled at the Effective Time and shall not be assumed by Acquirer, and no Company Option shall be substituted with any equivalent option or right to purchase or otherwise acquire any capital stock or other securities of Acquirer. Upon cancellation thereof and delivery of a duly completed and executed amendment, waiver and consent, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (an “Option Waiver”) with respect thereto, each In the Money Option shall be converted into and represent the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.4, an amount in cash, without interest, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock underlying such In the Money Option, equal to the excess of (A) the Common Per Share Amount over (B) the per share exercise price of such In the Money Option (collectively, the “Option Payments”). The amount of cash each Converting Holder holding In the Money Options is entitled to receive for such In the Money Options shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all In the Money Options held by such Converting Holder and will be reduced by any applicable payroll, income tax or other withholding taxes. Upon cancellation thereof, no payment shall be made with respect to any Company Option that is not an In the Money Option. The Company shall, prior to payment of any cash amount, take or cause to be taken all actions, and shall obtain all consents, as may be required to effect the treatment of Company Options pursuant to this Section 1.3(a)(iii).

(iv)Company Warrants. Each Company Warrant, whether vested or unvested, shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be cancelled and extinguished and shall not be assumed by Acquirer in the Merger.

(v)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the aggregate amount of cash to be paid by Acquirer to the Company Securityholders pursuant to this Agreement (excluding the Employee RSUs, Retention Bonuses and each Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Excess Amount, if any) exceed the Merger Consideration.

5













(b)Treatment of Company Capital Stock Owned by the Company. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Capital Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment of any cash or other property or consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.

(c)Treatment of Merger Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquirer, Merger Sub or any other Person, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub capital stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation’s capital stock that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). From and after the Effective Time, each certificate evidencing ownership of a number of shares of Merger Sub capital stock will evidence ownership of such number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(d)Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock), reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to the Company Capital Stock occurring after the Agreement Date and prior to the Effective Time, all references herein to specified numbers of shares of any class or series affected thereby, and all calculations provided for that are based upon numbers of shares of any class or series (or trading prices therefor) affected thereby, shall be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change.

(e)Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to any such Dissenting Shares pursuant to the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who, pursuant to the DGCL, becomes entitled to payment thereunder for such shares shall receive payment therefor in accordance with the DGCL (but only after the value therefor shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such provisions). If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares, then any such shares shall immediately be deemed to have converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares, and Acquirer shall issue and deliver to the holder thereof, at (or as promptly as reasonably practicable after) the applicable time or times specified in Section 1.4(a), following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 1.4(a), the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares. The Company shall provide to Acquirer prompt notice of any demands for appraisal or purchase received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments related to such demands served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company. The Company (before the Effective Time) and the Surviving Corporation (after the Effective Time) shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands under the DGCL. Subject to Section 8.2, the payout of consideration under this Agreement to the Converting Holders (other than in respect of Dissenting Shares, which shall be treated as provided in this Section 1.3(e) and under the DGCL) shall not be affected by the exercise or potential exercise of appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights under the DGCL by any other Company Stockholder.

(f)Rights Not Transferable. The rights of the Company Securityholders under this Agreement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time are personal to each such Company Securityholder and shall not be transferable for any reason, other than by operation of law, will or the laws of descent and distribution without action taken by or on behalf of such Company Securityholder. Any attempted transfer of such right by any holder thereof (other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.

(g)No Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no interest shall accumulate on any cash payable in connection with the consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions.

(b)Surrender of Options. Acquirer shall, within 30 days following the Closing Date, (A) cause the Option Payments to be paid to each Company Optionholder holding In the Money Options and (B) cause the Common Per Share Amount to be paid to the Designated Stockholder with respect to each of the Designated Shares, in each case less an amount in cash equal to the sum of (i) such Company Optionholder’s or such Designated Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Indemnification Holdback Amount, (ii) such Company Optionholder’s or such Designated Stockholder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Adjustment Holdback Amount and (iii) such Company Optionholder’s or such Designated Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Expense Fund, through Acquirer’s or the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in accordance with standard payroll practices, and subject to any required withholding for applicable Taxes; provided that such payment to such Company Optionholder shall be made only if such Company Optionholder shall have delivered a duly executed Option Waiver and such payment to such Designated Stockholder shall be made only if such Designated Stockholder shall have complied with the payment procedures set forth in Section 1.4(a).

(c)Adjustment Holdback Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the other provisions of this Article I, Acquirer shall withhold from each Converting Holder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration payable to such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a) such Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Adjustment Holdback Amount (the aggregate amount of cash so held by Acquirer from time to time, the “Adjustment Holdback Fund”). The Adjustment Holdback Fund shall be held by Acquirer in a separate account from its operating funds and constitute partial security for the benefit of Acquirer with respect to the Converting Holders’ indemnification obligations under Section 1.6(e)(ii), provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any and all amounts released from the Adjustment Holdback Fund with respect to Company Optionholders holding In the Money Options shall not be made after the date that is five (5) years following the Effective Time and shall otherwise be made in a manner intended to comply with Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5)(iv)(A).

The adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders shall constitute, among other things, approval of the Indemnification Holdback Amount and the withholding of Indemnification Holdback Amount.

8

1.5No Further Ownership Rights in the Company Capital Stock, Company Options or Company Warrants. The applicable portion of the Merger Consideration paid or payable following the surrender for exchange of the Certificates and Company Options in accordance with this Agreement shall be paid or payable in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Capital Stock represented by such Certificates or issuable pursuant to such Company Options, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate or document or instrument representing a Company Option is presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, such Certificate or Company Option shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

(c)Review; Disputes.

(i)From and after the Effective Time, Acquirer and the Surviving Corporation shall provide the Stockholders’ Agent and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours (upon reasonable notice) to the books and records of the Surviving Corporation for the purpose of enabling the Stockholders’ Agent to calculate the Tangible Net Worth Amount.

9

The Dispute Notice shall set forth the basis for the dispute of any such calculation in reasonable detail.

(iii)If the Stockholders’ Agent does not deliver a Dispute Notice to Acquirer prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Acquirer’s calculation of the Tangible Net Worth Amount set forth in the Company Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and their Affiliates and Representatives, nonappealable, and not be subject to further review, and shall be considered final for all purposes hereunder. Any matters not expressly set forth in the Dispute Notice shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Acquirer and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and their Affiliates and Representatives, and shall be considered final for all purposes hereunder.

(iv)If the Stockholders’ Agent delivers a Dispute Notice to Acquirer prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to reach agreement on the Tangible Net Worth Amount. If the Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent are unable to reach agreement on the Tangible Net Worth Amount within 20 days after the end of the Review Period, either party shall have the right to refer such dispute to Ernst & Young LLP or another independent nationally recognized accounting firm that is mutually agreed upon by Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Representative (such firm, or any successor thereto, being referred to herein as the “Designated Accounting Firm”) after such 20th day. In connection with the resolution of any such dispute by the Designated Accounting Firm: (1) each of the Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall have a reasonable opportunity to meet with the Designated Accounting Firm to provide its views as to any disputed issues with respect to the calculation of any of the Tangible Net Worth Amount; (2) each of the Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall promptly provide, or cause to be provided, to the Designated Accounting Firm all information as is reasonably necessary to permit the Designated Accounting Firm to resolve such disputes; (3) the Designated Accounting Firm shall determine the Tangible Net Worth Amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within 30 days after such referral, and upon reaching such determination shall deliver a copy of its calculations (the “Expert Calculations”) to the Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent; and (4) the determination made by the Designated Accounting Firm of the Tangible Net Worth Amount that are in dispute shall be conclusive, binding upon the Parties, and their Affiliates and Representatives, nonappealable, and not be subject to further review, and shall be considered final for all purposes hereunder. In calculating the Tangible Net Worth Amount, the Designated Accounting Firm (A) shall be limited to addressing only those particular disputed items referred to in the Dispute Notice; (B) such calculation shall be based solely on written information provided by the Acquirer and Stockholders Agent to the Designated Accounting Firm (and each of the Stockholders Agent and the Acquirer shall provide the other with copies of all such information concurrently with providing it to the Designated Accounting Firm) and (C) such calculation shall be within the range established by the respective calculations submitted by Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent. The Expert Calculations shall reflect in detail the differences, if any, between the Tangible Net Worth Amount reflected therein and the Tangible Net Worth Amount set forth in the Company Statement. The fees and expenses of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Acquirer, on the one hand, and the Converting Holders, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. If the Converting Holders shall be required to pay any such fees or expenses, such fees or expenses shall be paid out of the Adjustment Holdback Fund and/or, if insufficient, out of the Indemnification Holdback Fund.

(d)If the Tangible Net Worth Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.6 equals an amount more than $250,000 (such amount, the “Excess Amount”), then Acquirer will distribute to each Converting Holder such Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Excess Amount and the Adjustment Holdback Amount by delivery of immediately available funds with 10 Business Days.

10











(e)If the Tangible Net Worth Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.6 equals an amount less than negative $250,000 (such amount, the “Shortfall Amount”), then:

(i)Each of the Converting Holders shall severally but not jointly indemnify and hold harmless Acquirer, without any dispute by the Stockholders Agent, for such Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the full amount of the Shortfall Amount; and

(ii) within ten Business Days, Acquirer will distribute to each Converting Holder (x) such Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Adjustment Holdback Amount minus (y) each Converting Holder’s TNW Pro Rata Share of the Shortfall Amount; provided that in the event that the Shortfall Amount exceeds the funds contained in the Adjustment Holdback Fund, then at the election of Acquirer the amount of such excess shall be satisfied out of the funds contained in the Indemnification Holdback Fund.

(f)Acquirer’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Section 1.6 will not be subject to any of the limitations set forth in Article VIII. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be treated as adjustments to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law.

1.7Tax Consequences. Neither Acquirer nor Merger Sub makes any representations or warranties to the Company or to any Company Securityholder regarding the Tax treatment of the Merger, or any of the Tax consequences to the Company or any Company Securityholder of this Agreement, the Merger or the other Transactions or the other agreements contemplated by this Agreement.

Each of Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payments of cash pursuant to this Agreement to any Named Employee, any Continuing Employee or any holder of any shares of Company Capital Stock, Company Options, Company Warrants or Certificates, such amounts in cash as Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Persons in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

1.10Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and interest in, to and under, and/or possession of, all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation are fully authorized, in the name and on behalf of the Company or otherwise, to take all lawful action necessary or desirable to accomplish such purpose or acts, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

The Indemnification Holdback Fund shall constitute partial security for the benefit of Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to the indemnification obligations of the Converting Holders under Section 1.6(e)and this Article VIII. Subject to Section 8.4, Acquirer shall hold the Indemnification Holdback Fund until 11:59 p.m. local time on the date (the “Indemnification Holdback Release Date”) that is 18 months after the Effective Time (or if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter). The Converting Holders shall not receive interest or other earnings on the cash in the Indemnification Holdback Fund. Neither the Indemnification Holdback Fund (including any portion thereof) nor any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, subjected to any Encumbrance, sold, assigned or transferred by any Converting Holder or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other Liability of any Converting Holder, Acquirer, or the Surviving Corporation, in each case prior to the distribution of the Indemnification Holdback Fund to any Converting Holder in accordance with Section 8.1(b), except that each Converting Holder shall be entitled to assign such Converting Holder’s rights to such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Indemnification Holdback Fund by will, by the laws of intestacy or by other operation of law.

(i)any failure of any representation or warranty made by the Company herein or in the Company Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit to or schedule of the Company Disclosure Letter) to be true and correct (I) as of the Agreement Date (except in the case of representations and warranties that by their terms speak only as of a specified date or dates, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or dates) or (II) as of the Closing Date as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date (except in the case of representations and warranties that by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or dates);

54












(ii)any failure of any certification, representation or warranty made by the Company in any certificate (other than the Spreadsheet and the Company Closing Financial Certificate) delivered to Acquirer pursuant to this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date such certificate is delivered to Acquirer;

(iii)any breach of, or default in connection with, any of the covenants, agreements or obligations made by the Company herein or in any other agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the Merger;

(iv)without duplication of any amounts that are included in the calculation of Tangible Net Worth Amount, any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet or the Company Closing Financial Certificate;

(v)any payments made with respect to Dissenting Shares to the extent that such payments, in the aggregate, exceed the value of the consideration that otherwise would have been payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i) upon the exchange of such Dissenting Shares, and any interest, costs, expenses and fees incurred by any Indemnified Person in connection with the exercise of any dissenters’ or appraisal rights;

(vi)any claims by (A) any then-current or former holder or alleged then-current or former holder of any Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors), arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (I) the Transactions or this Agreement, including the allocation of the Merger Consideration, or (II) such Person’s status or alleged status as a holder of Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors) at any time at or prior to the Closing, (B) any Person to the effect that such Person is entitled to any Equity Interest of the Company or any payment by Acquirer in connection with the Transactions other than as specifically set forth on the Spreadsheet or (C) any Person with respect to any Company Option Plan or any other plan, policy or Contract providing for compensation to any Person in the form of Equity Interests;

(vii) any Pre-Closing Taxes or Taxes for which the Converting Holders are liable under Section 1.8 to the extent not taken into account in calculating the Tangible Net Worth Amount; and

(viii)any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company or such Converting Holder.

(b)Materiality and knowledge standards or qualifications, qualifications or requirements that a matter be or not be “reasonably expected” or “reasonably likely” to occur and qualifications by reference to the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation shall only be taken into account in determining whether an inaccuracy in such representation or warranty, or a breach of such covenant, agreement or obligation, exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such inaccuracy or breach.

8.3Indemnifiable Damage Threshold; Other Limitations.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Indemnified Person may make a claim against the Indemnification Holdback Fund in respect of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than claims arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (i) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company or such Converting Holder or (ii) any failure of any of the Special Representations to be true and correct as aforesaid unless and until a Claim Certificate (together with any other delivered Claim Certificates) describing Indemnifiable Damages in an aggregate amount greater than $150,000 (the “Basket”) has been delivered, in which case the Indemnified Person may make claims for indemnification, compensation and reimbursement and may receive cash from the Indemnification Holdback Fund for all Indemnifiable Damages (including the amount of the Basket). The Basket shall not apply to any other Indemnifiable Damages or claims therefor.

55












(b)If the Merger is consummated, recovery from the Indemnification Holdback Fund shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for the indemnity obligations of each Converting Holder under this Agreement for Indemnifiable Damages (and not specific performance or other equitable remedies) arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in Section 8.2(a), except (i) in the case of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company or such Converting Holder and (ii) any failure of any of the representations and warranties made by the Company in Section 2.1(a) (Organization, Standing, Power and Subsidiaries), Section 2.2 (Capital Structure) and Section 2.3 (Authority; Non-contravention) (collectively, the “Special Representations”) to be true and correct as aforesaid.

(c)In the case of any claims for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the failure of any of the Special Representations to be true and correct as aforesaid or any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company or a Converting Holder (collectively, “Special Claims”), after Indemnified Persons have exhausted or made claims upon all amounts of cash held in the Indemnification Holdback Fund (after taking into account all other claims for indemnification from the Indemnification Holdback Fund made by Indemnified Persons), or following the Indemnification Holdback Release Date, each Converting Holder shall have Liability severally not jointly for such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total Liability of a Converting Holder for Special Claims shall be limited to the aggregate amount of cash paid to such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a) and Section 1.6(d), if any, less such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Indemnification Fund released to Acquirer. For purposes of determining whether any aggregate liability cap described in this Article VIII has been reached, any amounts disbursed from the Indemnification Holdback Fund or otherwise paid to Acquirer by the Converting Holders in satisfaction of claims for indemnification under this Article VIII shall be counted toward each such cap.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amounts that an Indemnified Person recovers from the Indemnification Holdback Fund pursuant to Special Claims shall not reduce the amount that an Indemnified Person may recover with respect to claims that are not Special Claims. By way of illustration and not limitation, assuming there are no other claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, in the event that Indemnifiable Damages resulting from a Special Claim are first satisfied from the Indemnification Holdback Fund and such recovery fully depletes the Indemnification Holdback Fund, the maximum amount recoverable by an Indemnified Person pursuant to a subsequent claim that is not a Special Claim shall continue to be the full dollar value of the Indemnification Holdback Fund irrespective of the fact that the Indemnification Holdback Fund was used to satisfy such Special Claim, such that the amount recoverable for such two claims would be the same regardless of the chronological order in which they were made.

56













(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) no Converting Holder shall have any right of indemnification, compensation, reimbursement, contribution or right of advancement from Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation or any other Indemnified Person (based upon such Converting Holder’s position as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or otherwise) with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Indemnified Person or any right of subrogation against the Company or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any indemnification, compensation or reimbursement of an Indemnified Person by reason of any of the matters set forth in Section 8.2(a), (ii) the rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons after the Effective Time shall not be limited by (x) any investigation by or on behalf of, or disclosure to (other than in the Company Disclosure Letter with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a) and subject to any limitations expressly set forth therein), any Indemnified Person at or prior to the Effective Time regarding any failure, breach or other event or circumstance or (y) any waiver of any condition to the Closing related thereto, (iii) if an Indemnified Person’s claim under this Article VIII may be properly characterized in multiple ways in accordance with this Article VIII such that such claim may or may not be subject to different limitations depending on such characterization, then such Indemnified Person shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery and time to assert such claim permitted in accordance with this Article VIII and (iv) no Converting Holder shall be liable for the breach of any covenant of another Converting Holder or any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of any Person other than the Company or such Converting Holder; provided that nothing herein shall limit the liability of a Converting Holder for any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf such Converting Holder.

(f)The parties will act in good faith with respect to any available insurance coverage with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages, and any recoveries by either party under any applicable insurance policies or rights to indemnification or contribution from third parties, less out of pocket fees and expenses incurred by such party in recovering such amounts, will offset any Indemnifiable Damages for which indemnification is available under this Article VIII.

8.4Period for Claims. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.4, the period (the “Claims Period”) during which claims may be made (i) against the Indemnification Holdback Fund for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to any of the Special Representations) shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. local time on the Holdback Release Date and (ii) for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with Special Claims shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. local time on the date that is six years and three months following the Closing Date.

8.5Claims.

(ii)stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount believed by Acquirer in good faith that could be incurred, paid, reserved, accrued or demanded by a third party); and

(iii)specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Acquirer) the individual items of such Indemnifiable Damages included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Indemnifiable Damages are related.

(b)Such Claim Certificate (i) need only specify such information to the knowledge of such officer of Acquirer as of the date thereof, (ii) shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Person with respect to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such Claim Certificate and (iii) may be updated and amended from time to time by Acquirer by delivering any updated or amended Claim Certificate, so long as the delivery of the original Claim Certificate is made within the applicable Claims Period and such update or amendment relates directly to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Claims Certificate; provided that all claims for Indemnifiable Damages properly set forth in a Claim Certificate or any update or amendment thereto shall remain outstanding until such claims have been resolved or satisfied, notwithstanding the expiration of such Claims Period. No delay in providing such Claim Certificate within the applicable Claims Period shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Stockholders’ Agent or the Converting Holders are prejudiced thereby.

8.6Resolution of Objections to Claims.

(a)If the Stockholders’ Agent does not contest, by written notice to Acquirer, any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 30-day period following receipt of the Claim Certificate, then Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Indemnification Holdback Fund having a total value equal to the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages corresponding to such claim or claims as set forth in such Claim Certificate.

(b)If the Stockholders’ Agent objects in writing to any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 30-day period set forth in Section 8.6(a), Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall attempt in good faith for 60 days after Acquirer’s receipt of such written objection to resolve such objection. If Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent. Acquirer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such memorandum and Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Indemnification Holdback Fund in accordance with the terms of such memorandum.

(c)If no such agreement can be reached during the 60-day period for good faith negotiation set forth in Section 8.6(b), but in any event upon the expiration of such 60-day period, either Acquirer or the Stockholders’ Agent may submit the dispute to arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 9.11 to resolve the matter. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Claim Certificate shall be non-appealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto and the Converting Holders, and Acquirer shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Indemnification Holdback Fund in accordance therewith.

(d)Judgment upon any determination of an arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of this Section 8.6(d), in any suit hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Claim Certificate is at issue, Acquirer shall be deemed to be the prevailing party unless the arbitrator determines in favor of the Stockholders’ Agent (on behalf of the Converting Holders) with respect to more than one-half of the amount in dispute, in which case the Converting Holders shall be deemed to be the prevailing party. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration shall pay its own fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the prevailing party, including attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred in connection with such suit.

(e)Any portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund held following the Holdback Release Date with respect to pending but unresolved claims for indemnification that is not awarded to Acquirer upon the resolution of such claims shall be distributed to the Converting Holders within five Business Days following resolution of such claims and in accordance with each such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of such portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund.

8.7Stockholders’ Agent.

(a)At the Closing, Shareholder Representative Services LLC shall be constituted and appointed as the Stockholders’ Agent. The Stockholders’ Agent shall be the agent for and on behalf of the Converting Holders for all purposes in connection with this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto, including without limitation to: (i) execute, as the Stockholders’ Agent, this Agreement and any agreement or instrument entered into or delivered in connection with the Transactions, (ii) give and receive notices, instructions and communications permitted or required under this Agreement, or any other agreement, document or instrument entered into or executed in connection herewith, for and on behalf of any Converting Holder, to or from Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions and any other matters contemplated by this Agreement or by such other agreement, document or instrument related to or contemplated by this Agreement (except to the extent that this Agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by each Converting Holder individually), (iii) review, negotiate and agree to and authorize Acquirer to reclaim an amount of cash from the Indemnification Holdback Fund in satisfaction of claims asserted by Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims) pursuant to this Article VIII, (iv) object to such claims pursuant to Section 8.6, (v) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into, or, if applicable, contest, prosecute or defend, settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with Orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, resolve any such claims, take any actions in connection with the resolution of any dispute relating hereto or to the Transactions by arbitration, settlement or otherwise, and take or forego any or all actions permitted or required of any Converting Holder or necessary in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, (vi) consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, solely at the cost and expense of the Converting Holders, (vii) consent or agree to any amendment to this Agreement or to waive any terms and conditions of this Agreement providing rights or benefits to the Converting Holders (other than with respect to the payment of the Merger Consideration less the amounts withheld pursuant to its terms) in accordance with the terms hereof and in the manner provided herein, (viii) pursuant to Section 1.6, engage and consult with Representatives for the purposes of preparing the Closing Balance Sheet and the Company Statement, (ix) pursuant to Section 1.6, negotiate the final calculation of the Tangible Net Worth Amount with Acquirer and the Designated Accounting Firm, if necessary, and (x) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance. Acquirer, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (including after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) shall be entitled to rely on the appointment of Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the Stockholders’ Agent and treat such Stockholders’ Agent as the duly appointed attorney-in-fact of each Converting Holder and has having the duties, power and authority provided for in this Section 8.7. The Converting Holders shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with this Agreement, and Acquirer and other Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to rely exclusively on any action or decision of the Stockholders’ Agent. The Person serving as the Stockholders’ Agent may be removed or replaced from time to time, or if such Person resigns from its position as the Stockholders’ Agent, then a successor may be appointed by the Converting Holders collectively having a Pro Rata Share greater than 50% upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to Acquirer. No bond shall be required of the Stockholders’ Agent.

59













(b)The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable to any Converting Holder for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Stockholders’ Agent while acting in good faith (and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith) and without gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Converting Holders shall severally (based on their Pro Rata Share) but not jointly indemnify the Stockholders’ Agent and hold it harmless against any losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and 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”) arising out of or in connection with the Stockholders’ Agent’s execution and performance of this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto, 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 directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Stockholders’ Agent, the Stockholders’ Agent will reimburse the Converting Holders the amount of such indemnified Agent Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Stockholders’ Agent by the Converting Holders, any such Agent Losses may be recovered by the Stockholders’ Agent from (i) the funds in the Expense Fund and (ii) the amounts in the Indemnification Holdback Fund at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Converting Holders; provided, that while this section allows the Stockholders’ Agent to be paid from the Expense Fund and the Indemnification Holdback Fund, this does not relieve the Converting Holders 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 Converting Holders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on indemnity or liability contained elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Stockholders’ Agent under this Section 8.7(b). The Converting Holders acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnities will survive the resignation or removal of the Stockholders’ Agent or the termination of this Agreement.

(c)After the Closing, any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Stockholders’ Agent that is within the scope of the Stockholders’ Agent’s authority under Section 8.7(a) shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all the Converting Holders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Converting Holder; and each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Converting Holder. Acquirer, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Indemnified Persons are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent.

60













(d)At Closing, Acquirer will wire to the Stockholders’ Agent an amount of $125,000 (the “Expense Fund”), which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Stockholders’ Agent for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto. The Converting Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Stockholders’ Agent any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Stockholders’ Agent will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholders’ Agent will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. As soon as practicable after the completion of the Stockholders’ Agent’s responsibilities, the Stockholders’ Agent will deliver the balance of the Expense Fund to the Paying Agent for further distribution to the Converting Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. For tax purposes, the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Converting Holders at the time of Closing.

8.8Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquirer becomes aware of a claim by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) that Acquirer in good faith believes may result in a claim for Indemnifiable Damages by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Acquirer shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of and (with the consent of the Stockholders’ Agent to the extent described below) to settle or resolve such Third-Party Claim (and the costs and expenses incurred by Acquirer in connection with such defense, settlement or resolution (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Indemnifiable Damages for which Acquirer shall be entitled to receive indemnification pursuant to a claim made hereunder, and such costs and expenses shall constitute Indemnifiable Damages subject to indemnification under Section 8.2 regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that such Third-Party Claim arose out of, resulted from or was in connection with a matter listed in Section 8.2), provided, however, that Acquirer (x) shall consult with the Stockholders’ Agent prior to effecting any settlement or compromise of any Third-Party Claim and (y) any settlement that is effected without the consent of the Stockholders’ Agent shall not be determinative of the existence of or amount of Indemnifiable Damages relating to such matter unless (i) the Third-Party Claim seeks injunctive relief or any other form of relief besides monetary damages, or (ii) the Stockholders’ Agent unreasonably conditions, withholds or delays its consent to such settlement or compromise. The Stockholders’ Agent shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Person. The Stockholders’ Agent shall have the right to participate, at the expense of the Converting Holders, in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claims, which participation shall include the right to receive copies of all pleadings and correspondence and consult in advance with Acquirer regarding any material actions to be taken in connection with such Third-Party Claims. In the event that the Stockholders’ Agent has consented to the amount of any settlement or resolution by Acquirer of any such claim (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless the Stockholders’ Agent shall have objected within 30 days after a written request therefor by Acquirer), or if the Stockholders’ Agent shall have been determined to have unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed its consent to the amount of any such settlement or resolution or if consent shall not be required pursuant to clause (i) of the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 8.8, neither the Stockholders’ Agent nor any Converting Holder shall have any power or authority to object under this Article VIII to the amount of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person against the Indemnification Holdback Fund for indemnity with respect to such settlement or resolution.

8.9Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Acquirer, the Stockholders’ Agent and the Converting Holders agree to treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) any payment received by the Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article VIII as adjustments to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent may cause this Agreement to be amended at any time after the Closing by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent.

9.5Extension; Waiver. At any time at or prior to the Closing, any party hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto owed to such party, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive any breaches of any of the covenants, agreements, obligations or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein.

Without limiting the generality or effect of the preceding sentence, no failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision herein.

9.6Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto; it being understood and agreed that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart.

64













9.8Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights and obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void, except that Acquirer and/or Merger Sub may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Acquirer without the prior consent of any other party hereto; provided that notwithstanding any such assignment, Acquirer and/or Merger Sub, as applicable, shall remain liable for all of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

9.9Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and shall be interpreted so as reasonably necessary to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.10Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereto shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party hereto of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy and nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver by any party hereto of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to Section 8.3(b), the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and the parties hereto hereby waive the requirement of any posting of a bond in connection with the remedies described herein.

9.11 Arbitration; Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a)EXCEPT FOR CLAIMS REGARDING EITHER ACQUIRER’S OR THE COMPANY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, TO WHICH THIS SECTION WILL NOT APPLY, IN THE EVENT THAT A RESOLUTION IS NOT REACHED AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO WITHIN 60 DAYS AFTER WRITTEN NOTICE OF A DISPUTE, THE DISPUTE SHALL BE FINALLY SETTLED BY BINDING ARBITRATION IN SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA. SUCH ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED BY JAMS IN ENGLISH AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH JAMS’ COMPREHENSIVE ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES. ONE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE APPOINTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH RULES. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ALLOW SUCH DISCOVERY AS IS APPROPRIATE TO THE PURPOSES OF ARBITRATION IN ACCOMPLISHING A FAIR, SPEEDY AND COST-EFFECTIVE RESOLUTION OF THE DISPUTE. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL REFERENCE THE FEDERAL RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE THEN IN EFFECT IN SETTING THE SCOPE AND TIMING OF DISCOVERY. THE AWARD OF ARBITRATION SHALL BE FINAL AND BINDING UPON THE PARTIES HERETO. The arbitrator will award to the prevailing party all costs, fees and expenses related to the arbitration, including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professionals incurred by the prevailing party, AND JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION THEREOF.

65












  
(b)Subject to the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of California, the place where this Agreement was entered and is to be performed, in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to herein, and in respect of the Transactions, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or thereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a California State or Federal court. The parties hereto hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.2 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Applicable Law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. With respect to any particular action, suit or proceeding, venue shall lie solely in the County of Santa Clara, California. A party hereto may apply either to a court of competent jurisdiction or to an arbitrator, if one has been appointed, for prejudgment remedies and emergency relief pending final determination of a claim pursuant to this Section 9.11. The appointment of an arbitrator does not preclude a party hereto from seeking prejudgment remedies and emergency relief from a court of competent jurisdiction.

9.12Governing Law. This Agreement, all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and all obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law that would refer a matter to a different jurisdiction; provided that any matters related to the effectiveness of the Merger shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law that would refer a matter to a different jurisdiction.

9.13Rules of Construction. The parties hereto have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, hereby waive, with respect to this Agreement, each Schedule and each Exhibit attached hereto, the application of any Applicable Law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.
