Entry into Merger Agreement
 
On February 21, 2019, Attunity Ltd. (“Attunity” or the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with QlikTech International AB, a company organized under the laws of the State of Sweden (“Parent”), Joffiger Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and a wholly‑owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and, solely for purposes of certain specified provisions of the Merger Agreement, Project Alpha Intermediate Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ultimate Parent”) and Qlik Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Qlik Technologies”). Parent, Merger Sub, Ultimate Parent and Qlik Technologies are sometimes referred to herein as the “Parent Parties”.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub will merge with and into Attunity (the “Merger”), with Attunity continuing after the Merger as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The Merger is structured as a statutory merger pursuant to Sections 314-327 of the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999.

The board of directors of Attunity (the “Board”) has unanimously (i) determined that the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are fair to, and in the best interests of, Attunity and its shareholders and that, considering the financial position of the merging companies, no reasonable concern exists that the Surviving Company will be unable to fulfill the obligations of Attunity to its creditors; (ii) approved the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (iii) determined to recommend that the shareholders of Attunity approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each ordinary share, par value NIS 0.40, of Attunity (“Ordinary Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be canceled and converted into the right to receive $23.50 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest thereon and less applicable withholding taxes.

Company stock options and vested Company restricted share units will generally be cancelled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (less applicable withholding and any applicable exercise price in the case of options) promptly following the Effective Time. Each grant of Company restricted share units which is unvested as of the Effective Time will be cancelled at that time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to each Ordinary Share subject thereto, with such payment being made, subject to certain exceptions, promptly following the date such Company restricted share unit was originally scheduled to vest.
 
 Attunity and the Parent Parties have made customary representations and warranties and agreed to customary covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants by Attunity to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time and not to engage in certain types of transactions during this period unless approved in writing by Parent, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

The Merger Agreement prohibits Attunity and its representatives from soliciting acquisition proposals and from entering into discussions or negotiations with respect to or any agreement concerning, or providing confidential information in connection with, any acquisition proposal, subject to customary exceptions, including if such acquisition proposal constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a “Superior Proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and if the failure to engage in discussions or negotiations relating to such proposals would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of Attunity’s directors under Israeli law. Subject to certain exceptions, Attunity has agreed not to withdraw, amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent the recommendation of the Board that Attunity’s shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger.

The Parent Parties have secured committed debt financing to be provided by Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. and Goldman Sachs Bank USA , and represented to the Company that the aggregate proceeds of such debt financing, together with cash on hand of the Parent Parties, will be sufficient for Parent and Merger Sub to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration and all related fees and expenses. Parent and Merger Sub have committed to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the debt financing on the terms and conditions described in the debt commitment letter entered into between the lenders and the Ultimate Parent on February 21, 2019. The transaction is not subject to a financing condition.
 
Consummation of the Merger is subject to several conditions, including requisite regulatory approvals and the approval of Attunity’s shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Shareholders Meeting”).
 
The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including in specified circumstances in connection with Superior Proposals, or if the Merger is not consummated by August 21, 2019 (the “Outside Date”).
 
Upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $19.6 million. Such circumstances include if the Merger Agreement is terminated in connection with (i) the Company accepting a Superior Proposal, (ii) the Company Board’s change or withdrawal of its recommendation of the Merger, (iii) the Company materially breaching its obligations regarding solicitation of alternative acquisition proposals and (iv) (A) the failure of the Company to obtain the requisite shareholder approval for the Merger after an alternative acquisition proposal had previously been publicly announced and (B) the Company entering into a definitive acquisition agreement to effect the alternative acquisition proposal within 12 months of termination and subsequently consummating such acquisition. In addition, the Company will be required to reimburse Parent for up to $1.5 million of its expenses associated with the transaction if the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, including if the Company’s shareholders do not vote to adopt the Merger Agreement or if the Company breaches its representations, warranties or covenants in a manner that would cause the related closing conditions to not be met, in each case, if the termination fee is not then payable.
 
Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under other specified circumstances, Parent will be required to pay the Company a termination fee of $40.9 million. Such circumstances include if the Merger Agreement is terminated (i) in connection with Parent’s failure to consummate the Merger after certain conditions are met, (ii) in connection with Parent willfully and materially breaching its representations, warranties or covenants in a manner that would cause the related closing conditions to not be met, and (iii) if either party terminates because the Merger has not been consummated by the Outside Date, and at the time of such termination, the Company was otherwise entitled to terminate the Agreement for either of the foregoing reasons.

Attunity expects to publish notice of the Shareholders Meeting in the near future, and soon thereafter, will provide to its shareholders a proxy statement describing the Merger, the Merger Agreement, as well as the procedure for voting in person or by proxy at the Shareholders Meeting and various other details related to the Shareholders Meeting. If the Merger is approved at the Shareholders Meeting, Israeli law mandates a 30-day waiting period before the Merger can become effective following such approval (the effectiveness of the Merger also requires a 50-day waiting period following the filing of a merger proposal with the Israeli Companies Registrar, which we expect will occur in the near future). Attunity anticipates that the Merger will be completed during the second quarter of 2019.
 
Voting Agreements
 
In connection with the Merger Agreement, Parent has entered into Voting Agreements (the “Voting Agreements”), each dated as of February 21, 2019, with several directors and officers of Attunity that are also shareholders of Attunity, including Mr. Shimon Alon, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Dror Harel-Elkayam, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary (each a “Attunity Shareholder”, and collectively, the “Attunity Shareholders”), pursuant to which, among other things, each Attunity Shareholder has agreed to vote all Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such Attunity Shareholder (the “Covered Shares”) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and against any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or any transaction that is the subject of an Acquisition Proposal. The obligations of the Attunity Shareholders terminate under certain circumstances, including if the Merger Agreement is terminated. The Attunity Shareholders collectively hold approximately 6.8% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares.
 
The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement and the form of Voting Agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

IMPORTANT NOTE

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement and may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants may have been qualified by certain disclosures not reflected in the text of the Merger Agreement and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by shareholders of, or other investors in, Attunity. Attunity’s shareholders and other investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of Attunity, Ultimate Parent, Qlik Technologies, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.
 
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND WHERE TO FIND IT
 
In connection with the Merger, Attunity intends to submit relevant materials to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and other governmental or regulatory authorities, including a proxy statement and form of proxy card. INVESTORS ARE URGED TO READ THESE MATERIALS CAREFULLY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ATTUNITY AND THE MERGER. The proxy statement, proxy card and certain other relevant materials (when they become available) and any other documents submitted by Attunity to the SEC may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov . Investors are urged to read the proxy statement and the other relevant materials carefully when they become available before making any voting or investment decision with respect to the Merger.
 
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
Information provided in this Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the expected timing of the Merger, the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to the proposed Merger, anticipated benefits, growth opportunities and other events relating to the proposed Merger, projections about Attunity’s business and its future revenues, expenses and profitability. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about Attunity and its industry as of the date of this Form 6-K.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to: risks associated with uncertainty as to whether the Merger transaction will be completed; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; costs and potential litigation associated with the Merger transaction; the failure to obtain the necessary shareholder approval or regulatory clearances or to satisfy the other closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement; risks that the proposed Merger transaction disrupts current plans and operations and the potential difficulties in employee retention as a result of the proposed transaction; the distraction of management of Attunity resulting from the proposed transaction; and the other risk factors discussed from time to time by Attunity in reports filed with, or furnished to, the SEC.

(iii)              Share Capital of Merger Sub . Each Ordinary Share, of no par value, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically and without further action converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Share, par value NIS 0.40, of the Surviving Company and such Ordinary Shares shall constitute the only outstanding share capital of the Surviving Company. Each certificate, if any, evidencing ownership of Ordinary Shares of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of Ordinary Shares of the Surviving Company.

(b)            Adjustment to the Merger Consideration . The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Shares), reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Company Shares occurring, or with a record date, on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, and such adjustment to the Merger Consideration shall provide to the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action.

(c)             Company Options .

(i)                  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder of any Company Option, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, shall be canceled in exchange for the right to receive a lump sum cash payment (without interest) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per Company Share subject to such Company Option and (ii) the total number of shares underlying such Company Option (the “ Option Consideration ”), less applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment (subject to ‎‎ Section 2.13 and ‎‎ Section 7.9) .

(ii)                With respect to Company Options, if any, that are outstanding but unvested immediately prior to cancellation of such unvested Company Options at the Effective Time as provided herein, the vesting schedule thereof shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, be accelerated (and, in the case of unvested Company Options held by non-employee directors that are not scheduled to accelerate as a result of the Merger, only to the extent the Director Proposal is adopted at the Company Shareholders Meeting), such that all outstanding Company Options at such time shall become vested.

(iii)              From and after the Effective Time, all Company Options shall no longer be outstanding and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Company Option shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto or arising therefrom, except the right to receive the Option Consideration payable hereunder.

If any Company Shareholder (i) does not provide Payor with a Valid Tax Certificate, by no later than five (5) Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request with Payor to release its portion of the consideration prior to ‎ the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Valid Tax Certificate at or before such time, then the amount to be withheld from such Company Shareholder’s portion of the consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as reasonably ‎ determined by Parent in accordance with applicable Law, which amount shall be increased by the interest plus linkage differences as defined in Section 159A of the Ordinance for the time period between the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the month following the month during which the Closing occurs and the time the relevant payment is made. Unless otherwise determined in the Withholding Tax Ruling, any withholding made in New Israeli Shekels with respect to payments made hereunder in Dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate in such manner as the Payor reasonably determines to be in compliance with applicable Law (but in any event not lower than the conversion rate on the Closing Date) and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable payment recipient and deducted from payments to be made to such payment recipient.

None of Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub shall agree to or permit any amendment, supplement or other modification of, or waive any of its rights under, the Debt Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements without the Company’s prior written consent, if such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver would reasonably be expected to, (A) reduce (or have the effect of reducing) the aggregate cash amount of the Debt Financing (unless the representations in Section 4.14 (as though made at the time of the effectuation of such amendment, modification, supplement or replacement) shall remain true and correct after taking into account such reduction), (B) impose new or additional conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing, or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Debt Financing, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) delay, prevent or materially impede the consummation of the Merger, (y) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing less likely to occur on the Closing Date or (z) impose additional obligations on the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date, or (C) adversely impact the ability of Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub to enforce their respective rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or, to the extent required to consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, the Financing Agreements (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, each of Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub may, without the prior written consent of the Company, amend, supplement or modify the Debt Commitment Letter to replace the Debt Commitment Letter with the Alternative Financing, or provide for the assignment of a portion of the Debt Financing to add agents, arrangers, lenders, bookrunners, purchasers or similar entities who have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof or to reallocate commitments or assign or reassign titles or roles to, or between or among, any entities party thereto, in each case, as and to the extent provided in the Debt Commitment Letter). Upon any such amendment, supplement or modification of the Debt Commitment Letter in accordance with this ‎ Section 7.10 , the term “Debt Commitment Letter” shall mean the Debt Commitment Letter as so amended, supplemented or modified.  Neither Ultimate Parent nor Merger Sub shall terminate, or agree to terminate, the Debt Commitment Letters except (x) for assignments and replacements of an individual lender, (y) replacements of the Debt Financing with Alternative Financing, or (z) as contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter immediately after funding of the Debt Financing.

Ultimate Parent and Parent shall also provide the Company promptly drafts (when agreed in all material respects) and promptly following their execution (to the extent executed prior to the Closing Date), executed copies of any Financing Agreements.  Without limiting the foregoing, Ultimate Parent and Parent shall promptly (but in any event no more than 24 hours following Ultimate Parent or Parent, as applicable, obtaining Knowledge thereof) give the Company written notice (i) of any breach or default by Ultimate Parent, Parent, any of their respective Affiliates, any Financing Source or any other party to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements (or any event or circumstance, with or without notice, lapse of time, or both, would reasonably be expected to give rise to any material breach or default), (ii) of any threatened or actual withdrawal, repudiation, expiration, intention not to fund or termination of or relating to the Debt Commitment Letter, the Financing Agreements or the Debt Financing, or (iii) if for any reason Ultimate Parent or Parent in good faith no longer believes it will be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing needed to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided , however, that in no event will Ultimate Parent or Parent be under any obligation to disclose any information pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) or (ii) that would jeopardize the protection of the attorney-client privilege (it being agreed that Ultimate Parent or Parent, as applicable, shall give notice to the Company of the fact that it is withholding such information pursuant to this proviso, and thereafter the Company and Ultimate Parent or Parent, as applicable, shall reasonably cooperate to cause such information to be provided, to the extent reasonably possible, in a manner that would not be expected to violate the applicable restriction). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing in Section 7.10(a) , in the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter notwithstanding Ultimate Parent’s and Parent’s use of their respective reasonable best efforts to satisfy their respective obligations under Section 7.10 (a) , Ultimate Parent and Parent shall as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event notify the Company in writing and use their respective reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, obtain alternative financing from alternative sources (the “ Alternative Financing ”) (x) in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and (y) which does not contain any condition precedent to funding that would be materially more onerous than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter on the date hereof, taken as a whole, or any terms that would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or impede beyond the Outside Date the consummation of the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that in no event shall any Alternative Financing have the effects described in clauses (A) through (C) of  Section 7.10(a) .  Ultimate Parent and/or Parent shall promptly provide the Company with a true, correct, and complete copy of any new financing commitment letter relating to the Alternative Financing, together with any related exhibits, schedules, supplements, and term sheets, and a true, correct, and complete copy of any fee letter in connection therewith (it being understood that the fee amounts and market flex terms in such fee letter may be redacted in a customary manner so long as such redaction does not cover terms that would adversely affect the conditionality, availability or termination of the Debt Financing).  The obligations under this Section 7.10(b) shall apply equally to any such Alternative Financing (including any new financing commitment letter).

68

The Company hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries' logos, names and trademarks in connection with the Debt Financing, so long as such use (i) is in a manner that is not intended to or would reasonably be expected to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) is solely in connection with a description of the Company, its business and products or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d)                Parent shall reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by them and their respective Representatives in performing their obligations under Section 7.10(c) , promptly upon written demand by the Company therefor.

(f)                 Single Payment Only .

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Company is entitled to receive a Parent Termination Fee pursuant to ‎ Section 9.3(e) , the Company’s right to receive payment of the Parent Termination Fee and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 9.3(i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and its Affiliates and Representatives against Parent and its Affiliates and Representatives under this Agreement or arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and upon payment of such amounts, none of Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives shall have any liability or obligation of any kind or nature relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case whether based on contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Laws or otherwise; provided that nothing in this Section 9.3(g) shall limit Parent’s reimbursement and indemnification obligations under Section 7.10(d) , or, subject to the Parent Liability Limitation, Parent’s liability in respect of Specified Breaches (but, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Parent be obligated to pay both (x) the Parent Termination Fee and (y) damages in respect of Specified Breaches).

76

(h)                Acknowledgment . The parties acknowledge that (i) the agreements contained in this ‎ Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to ‎ Section 9.3(b) or ‎ Section 9.3(e) are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent or the Company, as the case may be, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) without the agreements contained in this ‎ Section 9.3 , the parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

(i)                  Enforcement Costs .

(i)                  If Parent fails to pay the Parent Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 9.3(e) , it shall also pay any reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with enforcing payment of the Parent Termination Fee (including by legal action), together with interest on such unpaid amount, at a rate per annum, compounded monthly, equal to the rate of interest published in The Wall Street Journal as of the prime lending rate plus two percent (2.0%) per annum from the date such amount was required to be paid to (but excluding) the payment date.

(ii)                If the Company fails to pay the Company Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 9.3(b) or Parent Expenses when due pursuant to Section 9.3(d) , it shall also pay any reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with enforcing payment of the Company Termination Fee or Parent Expenses (including by legal action), together with interest on such unpaid amount, at a rate per annum, compounded monthly, equal to the rate of interest published in The Wall Street Journal as of the prime lending rate plus two percent (2.0%) per annum from the date such amount was required to be paid to (but excluding) the payment date.

Section 9.4              Amendment . Subject to applicable Law and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company; provided, however, that in the event that the Company has received the Company Shareholder Approval, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement that requires the approval of the Company Shareholders under applicable Law without obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval of such amendment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this ‎ Section 9.4 , Section 10.3(i) , Section 10.5(b) , ‎ Section 10.7, the penultimate sentence of ‎ Section 10.8 , ‎ Section 10.9(a) and Section 10.9(b) (or any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of any of the foregoing provisions in a manner that would be adverse to the Financing Sources) may not be modified, waived, terminated or amended in a manner that adversely impacts the interests of any Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Financing Source (and any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination without such prior written consent shall be null and void).

77

Any delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

Section 10.7          Remedies .

(a)             Remedies of Parent and Merger Sub .

(i)                  Specific Performance . Prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to ‎ Section 9.1 , Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to seek and obtain an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the Company in the courts described in ‎ Section 10.9 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, including the Company’s obligation to consummate the Merger.

80

(b)             Remedies of the Company .

(i)                  Specific Performance (Pre-Closing Covenants) . Prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to ‎ Section 9.1 and other than as it relates to the right to cause the Merger to be consummated (which is governed by the provisions of Section 10.7(b)(ii) ), the Company shall be entitled to seek and obtain an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub in the courts described in ‎ Section 10.9 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof.

(ii)                Specific Performance (Closing) . Prior to a valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to ‎ Section 9.1 , the Company shall be entitled to seek and obtain an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to enforce Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, only in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) the conditions set forth in ‎ Section 8.1 and ‎ Section 8.2 (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied at the time the Closing would have occurred and remain satisfied, (ii) the Debt Financing (or, if Alternative Financing is being used in accordance with Section 7.10(b) , pursuant to the commitments with respect thereto) has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or will be funded in accordance with the terms thereof at the Closing and (iii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing to Parent that if specific performance is granted and the Debt Financing is funded, then the Closing will occur. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Parent’s obligation to consummate the Merger if the Debt Financing has not been funded (and will not be funded at the Closing). In no event shall the Company be entitled to seek the remedy of specific performance to cause the consummation of the Merger other than solely under the specific circumstances and as specifically set forth in this Section 10.7(b)(ii) . For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company (as opposed to Parent) be entitled to seek any remedy of specific performance or other equitable remedies against any Financing Source in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the Debt Financing. The election of the Company to pursue an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the Company from seeking to terminate this Agreement and seeking to collect the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to ‎ Section 9.3(e) or damages for liability of Parent or Merger Sub in the case of fraud or a Specified Breach as provided in ‎ Section 9.2 ; provided that in no event shall the Company be entitled to receive both an injunction, specific performance or other equity relief to cause Parent to consummate the Merger and collect the Parent Termination Fee or any damages.

In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company and each other Company Party hereby waives any claims against the Financing Sources and hereby agrees that in no event shall the Financing Sources have any liability, whether at law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, or obligation to the Company or any other Company Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any claims or actions under applicable Laws arising out of any such breach, termination or failure ; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 10.7(b)(v) shall in any way limit or modify the rights and obligations of Parent, Merger Sub or the Financing Sources under the Debt Commitment Letter. In addition to the rights of Parent and Merger Sub hereunder, Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled, at Parent and Merger Sub’s sole election, to settle any claims for the Parent Termination Fee or damages in respect of Specified Breaches by agreeing to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Financing Source shall be subject to any special, consequential, or punitive damages or damages of a tortious nature. The Financing Sources are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 10.7 .

81

(c)                 Acknowledgement Regarding Available Remedies . Solely to the extent that the right of specific performance is explicitly applicable under the terms of this Section 10.7 , the parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if applicable, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Solely to the extent that the right of specific performance is explicitly applicable under the terms of this Section 10.7 , the parties acknowledge and agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in ‎ Section 10.9 without proof of damages or otherwise, and that such explicit rights of specific enforcement are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such rights, none of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub would have entered into this Agreement. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief expressly applicable under this Section 10.7 on the basis that (i) it has an adequate remedy at law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to pr ovide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. While the Company and Parent may pursue both a grant of specific performance to cause the other party to consummate the Merger and payment of the Company Termination Fee, Parent Expenses or Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 10.7 , in no event shall the Company or Parent be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance to cause the other party to consummate the Merger and payment of the Company Termination Fee, Parent Expenses or Parent Termination Fee, as applicable.

(d)                Sole Remedy . The parties acknowledge and agree that the remedies provided for in this Section 10.7 shall be the parties’ sole and exclusive remedies for any breaches of this Agreement or any claims relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that such party may have against the other party, the Parent Parties or the Company Parties, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any Law for any breach of the representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 10.7 shall relieve any party from any liability for actual fraud.

82

Section 10.8          Governing Law . This Agreement and any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, the negotiation, execution, existence, validity, enforceability or performance of this Agreement, or for the breach or alleged breach hereof (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or otherwise) that would cause the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction, except that (i) the internal affairs of the corporations party hereto that are organized and existing under the ICL and (ii) all other provisions of, or transactions contemplated by, this Agreement that are expressly or otherwise required to be governed by the ICL, shall be governed by the ICL.

The Financing Sources are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 10.8 .

Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding in such courts as provided above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 10.7(b)(v) , each of the parties hereto agrees (i) that any Legal Proceeding of any kind or nature, whether at law or in equity, in contract, tort or otherwise, against a Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto submits for itself and its property with respect to any such Legal Proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) not to bring or permit any of its Affiliates or Representatives to bring or support anyone else in bringing any such Legal Proceeding in any other courts, (iii) that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law, and (iv) to waive and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such Legal Proceeding in any such court.

(a)             Ultimate Parent and Qlik Technologies (each, a “ Guarantor ”, and collectively, the “ Guarantors ”) hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the payment and the prompt and full discharge and performance, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, of all covenants, obligations, liabilities and indemnities of Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement (including the obligations set forth in Section 7.10 ) owed at or prior to the Closing (the “ Guaranteed Obligations ”).  The Company need not attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligation hereunder from Parent or Merger Sub or otherwise pursue any remedies against Parent or Merger Sub prior to enforcing its right against the Guarantors. 

(b)            To the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Company upon this Agreement or acceptance of this Agreement. All of the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Section 10.12 , and all dealings between the Guarantors, Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Section 10.12 . This Section 10.12 is a primary obligation of the Guarantors and is not merely the creation of a surety relationship. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantors, the Company shall be under no obligation to pursue such rights and remedies it may have against Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Company to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from Parent or Merger Sub or any such other Person or to realize upon or to exercise any such right of offset shall not relieve the Guarantors of any liability hereunder.

84

(c)            The Company shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to any Guaranteed Obligation in the event that Parent or Merger Sub becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Company to so file such claim shall not affect any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder (and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any bar to the payment, or collection, of any Guaranteed Obligations as a result of any such proceeding shall not discharge the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that any payment to the Company in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, this Section 10.12 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated pursuant to the terms hereof, as the case may be, and the Guarantors shall remain liable hereunder with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations as if such payment had not been made.

(d)            If any Guarantor fails to fully pay any Guaranteed Obligation when due, it shall also pay any reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with enforcing this Section 10.12 (including by legal action), together with interest on such unpaid amount, at a rate per annum, compounded monthly, equal to the rate of interest published in The Wall Street Journal as of the prime lending rate plus two percent (2%) per annum from the date such amount was required to be paid to (but excluding) the payment date.

(e)            Each Guarantor expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights and defenses arising under any applicable Law that would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Company, promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of the guaranty set forth in this Section 10.12 and of any Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand and protest, any defenses that might be available under any valuation, stay, moratorium or similar applicable Law, any defenses arising from the bankruptcy or insolvency of Parent or Merger Sub, any defenses which Parent or Merger Sub may not assert as defenses to payment of any Guaranteed Obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any notice of any kind not provided for herein or not required to be provided to Parent or Merger Sub under or in connection with this Agreement, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other defenses not expressly preserved hereby, and all suretyship defenses generally. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Section 10.12 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.   For the avoidance of doubt, each Guarantor shall have and be permitted to assert any and all defenses available to Parent or Merger Sub with respect to payment or performance under this Agreement, whether at Law or in equity.

(f)            No Guarantor will exercise any rights of subrogation or contribution against Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under bankruptcy or insolvency laws) or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Guarantor hereby expressly and unconditionally waives any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person that arise from the existence, payment, performance, or enforcement of its obligations under or in respect of this Section 10.12 or any other agreement in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Company against Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in immediately available funds of the Guaranteed Obligations, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Company, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Company in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, or to be held as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations.

85

(g)           Except as otherwise provided herein and without amending or limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the liability of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(i)                  the value, genuineness, regularity, illegality or enforceability of this Agreement, any financing commitment letters (equity, debt or otherwise) or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein;

(ii)                any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent or Merger Sub or any Guarantor or any other Person, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or other similar proceeding affecting Parent or Merger Sub or any Guarantor or any other Person or any of their respective assets;

(iii)              any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement or any financing commitment letters or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case, in accordance with its terms, or change in the time, manner, place or terms of payment or performance, or any change or extension of the time of payment or performance of, rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation, renewal or alteration of, any Guaranteed Obligation, any escrow arrangement or other security therefor, any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, or any agreement entered into by the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and/or Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates, on the other hand, in connection therewith;

(iv)              the existence of any claim, set off or other right that any Guarantor may have at any time against Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, or any of their Affiliates, whether in connection with any Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise;

(v)                the addition, substitution or release of any Person now or hereafter liable with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise interested in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any financing commitment letters or any related agreement or document;

(vi)              the adequacy of any other means the Company may have of obtaining repayment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; and

(vii)            any other defense that might operate as a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety.

86

(h)            Each Guarantor (i) is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and (to the extent such concept is applicable) in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (ii) has all requisite corporate or similar power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted. Each Guarantor has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its covenants and obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery by each Guarantor of this Agreement, the performance by each Guarantor of its covenants and obligations hereunder and the consummation by each Guarantor of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of each Guarantor, and no other corporate or other proceeding on the part of such Guarantor is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this Agreement, the performance by such Guarantor of its covenants and obligations hereunder or the consummation by such Guarantor of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Guarantor and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. No vote of the holders of any of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of any Guarantor is necessary to approve and adopt this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery by each Guarantor of this Agreement do not, and the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder will not, (a) violate or conflict with any provision of the articles of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents of such Guarantor, (b) result in a violation or breach of any provision of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, payment, acceleration or revocation under, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, license, contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which such Guarantor is a party or by which such Guarantor or any of its assets or properties may be bound, (c) assuming the Approvals referred to in Section 3.4 are obtained or made, violate or conflict with any Law or Order applicable to such Guarantor or by which any of its assets or properties are bound or (d) result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of the properties or assets of such Guarantor, except in the case of each of clauses (b) , (c) and (d) above, for such violations, conflicts, defaults, terminations, accelerations or Liens which would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect. No Approval of any Governmental Authority is required on the part of any Guarantor or any of its Affiliates in connection with the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this Agreement, the performance by such Guarantor of its covenants and obligations hereunder and the consummation by such Guarantor of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than those set forth in Section 4.4 . Ultimate Parent directly owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Qlik Technologies, and Ultimate Parent owns no other assets or properties other than such capital stock. Ultimate Parent has no liabilities of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) other than liabilities that are incidental to Ultimate Parent’s ownership of the outstanding capital stock of Qlik Technologies and pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

(i)             Except for the express written representations and warranties made by each Guarantor in Section 10.12(h) , each Guarantor does not make any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to itself, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities, conditions (financial or otherwise) or prospects in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Guarantor expressly disclaims any such other representations or warranties, and the Company acknowledges and agrees that none of the Company or its Affiliates or Representatives has relied on or are relying on any representations or warranties regarding such Guarantor, other than the express written representations and warranties expressly set forth in Section 10.12(h) .

(f)            Severability .  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 will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto.  The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.
