Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Private Placement

On July 31, 2017, Invitae Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement, agreed to issue and sell to the Investors an aggregate of 5,188,235 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at a price of $8.50 per share and 3,458,823 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a price of $8.50 per share, for gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $73.5 million (the “Private Placement”). The Series A Preferred Stock, which is a Common Stock equivalent but non-voting and with a blocker on conversion if the holder would exceed a specified threshold of voting security ownership, is convertible into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for events such as stock splits, combinations and the like as provided in the Purchase Agreement. The Private Placement is expected to close on or about August 3, 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors, dated as of July 31, 2017 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock, and Common Stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock, sold in the Private Placement, as well as other shares of Common Stock previously held by certain investors participating in the Private Placement. The Company has agreed to file the registration statements within 60 days of the closing of the Private Placement. The Registration Rights Agreement includes customary indemnification rights in connection with the registration statements.

The foregoing summary descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement are incorporated herein by reference only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Private Placement, on July 31, 2017, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement dated as of August 26, 2014 (the “Original Rights Agreement”) by and among the Company and the other signatories thereto. The Amendment provides that a Holder’s (as defined in the Original Rights Agreement) rights with respect to registration of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Original Rights Agreement) expire at such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) is available for the sale of all of such Holder’s shares without limitation during a three-month period. As required under the Original Rights Agreement, the Amendment was entered into by the Company and the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities currently outstanding (as defined in the Original Rights Agreement).

The foregoing summary description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Private Placement, on July 31, 2017, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Agreement”) which supersedes the Original Rights Agreement, as amended. The Amended and Restated Agreement provides that Holders (as defined in the Amended and Restated Agreement) holding Registrable Securities (as defined in the Amended and Restated Agreement), particularly those who would otherwise be prohibited from selling shares of Common Stock due to certain restrictions under federal securities laws (including, for example, due to status as an affiliate of the Company) shall be entitled to request registration of such shares on a registration statement on Form S-3 under certain circumstances as more fully described in the Amended and Restated Agreement. As required under the Original Agreement, the Amended and Restated Agreement was entered into by the Company and the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities currently outstanding (as defined in the Original Agreement and following the effectiveness of the Amendment).

The foregoing summary description of the Amended and Restated Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.4 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

CombiMatrix Acquisition

On July 31, 2017, the Company, Coronado Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Coronado Merger Sub”), and CombiMatrix Corporation (NASDAQ: CBMX), a Delaware corporation (“CombiMatrix”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “CombiMatrix Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the fully diluted equity of CombiMatrix. Pursuant to the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement, Coronado Merger Sub will merge with and into CombiMatrix, with CombiMatrix becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving corporation in the merger (the “CombiMatrix Merger”). The CombiMatrix Merger is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”).

The aggregate merger-related consideration in the CombiMatrix Merger for 100% of the currently issued and outstanding shares of CombiMatrix as well as outstanding restricted stock units and in-the-money options consists of $27.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock, based upon the 30 trading day trailing average closing price for shares of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the date of the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement (the “Stipulated Value”), or approximately 2.85 million shares; provided, however, that such amount is subject to adjustment based upon the “Net Cash” of CombiMatrix at the time of the CombiMatrix Merger as defined in the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement, at the closing of the CombiMatrix Merger, (i) each outstanding share of CombiMatrix common stock or Series F preferred stock will be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement), (ii) outstanding and unexercised in-the-money CombiMatrix stock options will be accelerated and converted into the right to receive the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio, and (iii) outstanding and unsettled CombiMatrix RSUs will be accelerated and settled with the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the CombiMatrix Merger and the Company will pay cash in lieu of any such fractional shares.

In addition, (a) outstanding and unexercised out-of-the money CombiMatrix stock options will be cancelled and extinguished at the closing of the CombiMatrix Merger without any right to receive any consideration, (b) outstanding and unexercised CombiMatrix Series D Warrants, and outstanding and unexercised and untendered CombiMatrix Series F Warrants (NASDAQ: CBMXW) immediately prior to the closing of the CombiMatrix Merger, will be assumed by the Company and converted into warrants to purchase that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio and (c) certain entitlements under CombiMatrix’s executive compensation transaction bonus plan will be paid in shares of the Company’s common stock or RSUs to be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. All outstanding and unexercised CombiMatrix Series A, Series B, Series C, Series E, and PIPE warrants will be repurchased by CombiMatrix prior to closing pursuant to that certain CombiMatrix Common Stock Purchase Warrants Repurchase Agreement dated July 11, 2016.

As part of the CombiMatrix Merger transaction and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company contemplates conducting a warrant exchange offer to the holders of outstanding CombiMatrix Series F Warrants to exchange such warrants (the “Warrant Exchange Offer”) for up to approximately $6.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock based upon the Stipulated Value, or approximately 0.63 million shares. The specific terms of the Warrant Exchange Offer have not yet been determined by the Company.

To the extent the CombiMatrix Series F warrants are not exchanged in the Warrant Exchange Offer and are either exercised or assumed as part of the CombiMatrix Merger, the consideration payable by the Company could increase by up to approximately $15 million in shares of the Company’s common stock based upon the Stipulated Value, or approximately 1.58 million shares; provided, however, that such amount is subject to adjustment based upon the Net Cash of CombiMatrix at the time of the CombiMatrix Merger.

Consummation of the CombiMatrix Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among other things, approval by the stockholders of CombiMatrix at a special meeting of stockholders to be called by CombiMatrix as well a minimum required participation in the Warrant Exchange Offer by the holders of at least 90% of the outstanding CombiMatrix Series F warrants. The CombiMatrix Merger Agreement contains specified termination rights for both the Company and CombiMatrix, and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, CombiMatrix may be obligated to pay the Company a termination fee of $1,400,000 (net of expense reimbursement previously paid), and, under specified circumstances, either party may be required to reimburse the other party for various expenses incurred in connection with the Merger up to a maximum of $400,000.

In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, certain CombiMatrix officers and directors have each entered into a Transaction Bonus Payout Agreement with CombiMatrix and the Company (the “CombiMatrix Transaction Bonus Payout Agreements”). Pursuant to the Transaction Bonus Payout Agreements, (i) the two CombiMatrix executive officers and another officer who are each party to such an agreement have agreed to receive any cash bonus to which they may otherwise be entitled under the CombiMatrix Transaction Bonus Plan in RSUs to be granted by the Company and settled in shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) the CombiMatrix outside directors who are each party to such an agreement have agreed to receive any cash bonus to which they may otherwise be entitled under the CombiMatrix Transaction Bonus Plan in unrestricted shares of the Company’s common stock.

The preceding summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the CombiMatrix Merger Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

On July 31, 2017, the Company, Bueno Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Bueno Merger Sub”), Good Start Genetics, Inc., a privately-held Delaware corporation (“Good Start”), holders of Good Start’s convertible promissory notes (the “Good Start Noteholders”), participants in Good Start’s management carveout plan (the “Good Start Plan Participants”), and OrbiMed Private Investments III, LP (as representative of the Good Start Noteholders, the Good Start Plan Participants and Good Start’s stockholders) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Good Start Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Good Start Merger Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the fully diluted equity of Good Start. Pursuant to the Good Start Merger Agreement, Bueno Merger Sub will merge with and into Good Start, with Good Start becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving corporation in the merger (the “Good Start Merger”).

The aggregate merger-related consideration in the Good Start Merger is expected to consist of approximately $40 million, including (i) approximately $15.7 million in shares of the Company’s common stock issuable to certain Good Start Noteholders and Good Start Plan Participants, or approximately 1.65 million shares based upon the 30 trading day trailing average closing price for shares of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the date of the Good Start Merger Agreement, subject to a hold back of approximately 25% of such amount for up to 13 months to cover potential indemnification liabilities, (ii) cash of up to approximately $18.3 million, which will be paid to retire certain Good Start secured debt, and (iii) the payment or assumption of approximately $6 million in pre-closing and closing-related liabilities and obligations of Good Start.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Good Start Merger Agreement, at the closing of the Good Start Merger, (i) each outstanding share of Good Start common stock (after conversion of all outstanding Good Stock preferred stock into common stock) will be converted into the right to receive $0.0001 cash per share of Good Start common stock (which, in the aggregate, will be a negligible amount), (ii) outstanding and unexercised Good Start stock options will be cancelled and extinguished without any right to receive any consideration, (iii) outstanding and unexercised Good Start warrants to purchase Good Start Series A preferred stock or Good Start Series B preferred stock will be terminated without any right to receive any consideration, and (iv) pursuant to certain note termination agreements, certain Good Start convertible promissory notes will be terminated in consideration for issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock as described above to the Good Start Noteholders.

In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, Good Start stockholders owning the substantial majority of (i) the Good Start common stock (after giving effect to conversion of all preferred stock) and (ii) the Good Start preferred stock have entered into a support agreement with the Company (the “Support Agreement”). The Support Agreement places certain restrictions on the transfer of the shares of capital stock of Good Start held by the respective signatories and include covenants as to the voting of such shares in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Good Start Merger Agreement.

Consummation of the Good Start Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including among other things, approval by the stockholders of Good Start.

The shares of the Company’s common stock issued in the Good Start Merger will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Each Good Start Noteholder and Good Start Plan Participant made certain representations as to such Good Start Noteholder or Good Start Plan Participant and that shares of the Company would be acquired for such Good Start Noteholder’s or Good Start Plan Participant’s own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and that such Good Start Noteholder or Good Start Plan Participant could bear the risks of the investment and could hold the shares for an indefinite period of time.

In connection with the Private Placement, on July 31, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing and designating the rights, powers and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company designated up to 3,458,823 shares of Series A Preferred Stock $0.0001 par value per share and a stated value per share equal to $8.50 (the “Stated Value”). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder thereof into a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by the conversion price per share, as it may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation, which shall initially be $8.50, subject to a blocker provision on conversion if the holder would exceed a specified threshold of voting security ownership (which percentage may subsequently be increased or decreased to any other percentage at the holder’s election). The Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to receive dividends, first or simultaneously with payment of dividends to common stock, in an amount equal to the product of (i) the dividend payable on each share of common stock and (ii) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of a share of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock will have no voting rights except as required by law, as modified by the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive $0.001 per share prior to the payment of any amount to any holders of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock and thereafter shall participate pari passu with the holders of the Company’s common stock (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis).

The foregoing summary description of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Designation, which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

(i) any shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock or CombiMatrix Preferred Stock held as treasury stock or held or owned by CombiMatrix, Merger Sub or any Subsidiary of CombiMatrix immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; and

( ii ) subject to Section 1.5(c):

(1) each share of CombiMatrix Series F Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(i)) shall be converted solely into the right to receive a number of shares of Invitae Common Stock equal to the product of (A) the Exchange Ratio multiplied by (B) the number of shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock underlying a share of outstanding CombiMatrix Series F Preferred Stock on the date immediately prior to the Effective Time;

(2) each share of CombiMatrix Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(i)) shall be converted solely into the right to receive a number of shares of Invitae Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio;

(3) subject to the payment of such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Legal Requirement as well as the delivery of any reasonably appropriate Tax forms, including Form W-9 (or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable), each CombiMatrix RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be fully accelerated to the extent of any vesting period applicable thereto and converted into the number of shares of Invitae Common Stock determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock that were subject to such CombiMatrix RSU, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (B) the Exchange Ratio and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Invitae Common Stock; and

(4) subject to the payment of such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Legal Requirement as well as the delivery of any reasonably appropriate Tax forms, including Form W-9 (or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable), each in-the-money CombiMatrix Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, shall be converted into the number of shares of Invitae Common Stock determined by (A) multiplying the Exchange Ratio by the number of shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock underlying such CombiMatrix Option, and subtracting therefrom (B) the number of shares of Invitae Common Stock determined by dividing (x) the exercise price payable by the holder with respect to all shares underlying such CombiMatrix Option by (y) the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value, and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Invitae Common Stock.

The shares of Invitae Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Section 1.5(a)(ii) are herein referred to as the “ Merger Consideration .”

(b) If any shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock, CombiMatrix RSUs or CombiMatrix Options outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option or the risk of forfeiture under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with CombiMatrix, then (i) the shares of Invitae Common Stock issued in exchange for such shares of CombiMatrix Common Stock shall be issued without regard to such vesting, restrictions, repurchase options or risk of forfeiture, which shall lapse as of the Effective Time and (ii) the shares of Invitae Common Stock issued upon conversion of such CombiMatrix RSUs or CombiMatrix Options, subject to and as provided in Sections 1.5(a)(ii)(3) and 1.5(a)(ii)(4) , shall be issued without any vesting period, restrictions, repurchase options or risk of forfeiture.

(c) No fractional shares of Invitae Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of CombiMatrix Common Stock, CombiMatrix RSUs or CombiMatrix Options who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Invitae Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Invitae Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender by such holder of a letter of transmittal in accordance with Section 1.8 and accompanying documents as required therein, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, CombiMatrix shall take or cause to be taken any and all actions reasonably necessary to cause all CombiMatrix RSUs outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time under the 2006 Plan or otherwise to become immediately fully vested as of the Effective Time and converted into the number of shares of unrestricted Invitae Common Stock calculated pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(ii)(3) . In accordance with Section 5.4(a) , CombiMatrix shall further take or cause to be taken any and all actions reasonably necessary to (i) cause all in-the-money CombiMatrix Options outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, to become immediately vested as of the Effective Time and converted into the number of shares of unrestricted Invitae Common Stock calculated pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(ii)(4) and (ii) cause all out-of-the-money CombiMatrix Options outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested or exercisable, to be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time for no consideration.

(e) All CombiMatrix Series D Warrants and CombiMatrix Series F Warrants outstanding as of the Effective Time ( i.e. , to the extent not exchanged in the Warrant Exchange Offer, in the instance of CombiMatrix Series F Warrants, or exercised for cash prior to consummation of the Warrant Exchange Offer) shall be assumed by Invitae and converted into warrants to purchase Invitae Common Stock in accordance with Section 5.4(c) . For the avoidance of doubt, all other CombiMatrix Warrants shall be repurchased by CombiMatrix pursuant to the CombiMatrix Warrant Repurchase.

(f) Each share of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(g) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock or Invitae Common Stock shall have been changed into, or exchanged for, a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares, the Exchange Ratio shall be correspondingly adjusted to provide holders of shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable into or exercisable for such CombiMatrix Capital Stock, the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

1.6 Calculation of Net Cash

(a) For the purposes of this Agreement, the “ Determination Date ” shall be the date that is ten (10) calendar days prior to the anticipated date for Closing, as agreed upon by Invitae and CombiMatrix at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the CombiMatrix Stockholders’ Meeting or, if later, at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the anticipated end of the period for the Warrant Exchange Offer (the “ Anticipated Closing Date ”). Within five (5) calendar days following the Determination Date, CombiMatrix shall deliver to Invitae a schedule (the “ Net Cash Schedule ”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, CombiMatrix’s good faith, estimated calculation of Net Cash (using estimates where applicable) as of the Anticipated Closing Date (the “ Net Cash Calculation ”) prepared and certified by CombiMatrix’s Chief Financial Officer; provided , however , that, for purposes of such calculation of Net Cash, current assets, current liabilities not triggered by the Closing, and long-term capital lease obligations may be calculated (i) as of the last day of the month prior to the Anticipated Closing Date if the Anticipated Closing Date occurs between the 15th and the 31st of the month or (ii) as of the last day of the month prior to the month preceding the Anticipated Closing Date if the Anticipated Closing Date occurs between the 1st and the 14th of the month, in both cases if, to the extent applicable, a mid-month calculation for such liabilities and assets (or, in the case of the foregoing clause (ii), calculation as of the most recent month-end) would be impractical. CombiMatrix shall make the work papers and back-up materials used or useful in preparing the Net Cash Schedule, as reasonably requested by Invitae, available to Invitae and, if requested by Invitae, its accountants and counsel at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.

(b) Within three (3) calendar days after CombiMatrix delivers the Net Cash Schedule (the “ Response Date ”), Invitae shall have the right to dispute any part of such Net Cash Schedule by delivering a written notice to that effect to CombiMatrix (a “ Dispute Notice ”). Any Dispute Notice shall identify in reasonable detail the nature of any proposed revisions to the Net Cash Calculation.

(c) If on or prior to the Response Date, (i) Invitae notifies CombiMatrix in writing that it has no objections to the Net Cash Calculation or (ii) Invitae fails to deliver a Dispute Notice as provided in Section 1.6(b) , then the Net Cash Calculation as set forth in the Net Cash Schedule shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) If Invitae delivers a Dispute Notice on or prior to the Response Date, then Representatives of CombiMatrix and Invitae shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed item(s) and negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Net Cash, which agreed upon Net Cash amount shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) If Representatives of Invitae and CombiMatrix are unable to negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Net Cash pursuant to Section 1.6(d) within three (3) calendar days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (or such other period as Invitae and CombiMatrix may mutually agree upon), then Invitae and CombiMatrix shall jointly select an independent auditor of recognized national standing (the “ Accounting Firm ”) to resolve any remaining disagreements as to the Net Cash Calculation. If Invitae and CombiMatrix are unable to mutually select the Accounting Firm, then Invitae and CombiMatrix shall each select an independent auditor of recognized national standing and those two selected firms shall jointly select a third independent auditor of recognized national standing, which shall serve as the Accounting Firm. CombiMatrix shall promptly deliver to the Accounting Firm the work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the Net Cash Schedule, and Invitae and CombiMatrix shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to make its determination within ten (10) calendar days of accepting its selection. CombiMatrix and Invitae shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Accounting Firm; provided , however , that no such presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a Representative of each of CombiMatrix and Invitae. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be limited to the disagreements submitted to the Accounting Firm. The determination of the amount of Net Cash made by the Accounting Firm shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Net Cash for purposes of this Agreement, and the Parties shall delay the Closing until the resolution of the matters described in this Section 1.6(e) . The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Invitae and CombiMatrix in the same proportion that the disputed amount of the Net Cash that was unsuccessfully disputed by such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total disputed amount of the Net Cash amount (and for the avoidance of doubt the fees and expenses to be paid by CombiMatrix shall reduce the Net Cash). If this Section 1.6(e) applies as to the determination of the Net Cash, upon resolution of the matter in accordance with this Section 1.6(e) , the Parties shall not be required to determine Net Cash again even though the Closing Date may occur later than the Anticipated Closing Date, except that either Party may request a redetermination of Net Cash if the Closing Date is more than five (5) Business Days after the Anticipated Closing Date.

1.7 Closing of CombiMatrix ’ s Transfer Books . At the Effective Time: (a) all shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated in accordance with Section 1.5(a) , and all holders of certificates representing shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of CombiMatrix; and (b) the stock transfer books of CombiMatrix shall be closed with respect to all shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of CombiMatrix

Capital Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (an “ CombiMatrix Stock Certificate ”) is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation, such CombiMatrix Stock Certificate shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Sections 1.5 or 1.8 .

1.8 Surrender of Certificates .

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Invitae and CombiMatrix shall agree upon and select a reputable bank, transfer agent or trust company to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “ Exchange Agent ”). At the Effective Time, Invitae shall deposit with the Exchange Agent: (i) the aggregate number of book-entry shares representing the Merger Consideration issuable to CombiMatrix stockholders pursuant to Section 1.5(a) and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.5(c) . The book-entry shares of Invitae Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent, together with any dividends or distributions received by the Exchange Agent with respect to such shares, are referred to collectively as the “ Exchange Fund .”

(b) At or before the Effective Time, CombiMatrix will deliver to Invitae a true, complete and accurate listing of all record holders of CombiMatrix Capital Stock at the Effective Time, including the number and class of shares of CombiMatrix Capital Stock held by such record holder, and the number of shares of Invitae Common Stock such record holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.5 . Promptly after the Effective Time, the Parties shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to the Persons who were record holders of CombiMatrix Stock Certificates immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Invitae may reasonably specify (including a provision confirming that delivery of CombiMatrix Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to CombiMatrix Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such CombiMatrix Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent); and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of CombiMatrix Stock Certificates in exchange for certificates representing Invitae Common Stock. Upon surrender of a CombiMatrix Stock Certificate to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Invitae: (A) the holder of such CombiMatrix Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Invitae Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5(a) (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Invitae Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5(c)) ; and (B) the CombiMatrix Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.8(b) , each CombiMatrix Stock Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive shares of Invitae Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Invitae Common Stock). If any CombiMatrix Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Invitae may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the delivery of any shares of Invitae Common Stock, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed CombiMatrix Stock Certificate to provide an applicable affidavit with respect to such CombiMatrix Stock Certificate and post a bond indemnifying Invitae against any claim suffered by Invitae related to the lost, stolen or destroyed CombiMatrix Stock Certificate or any Invitae Common Stock issued in exchange therefor as Invitae may reasonably request.

(c) No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Invitae Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered CombiMatrix Stock Certificate with respect to the shares of Invitae Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the Merger until such holder surrenders such CombiMatrix Stock Certificate or an affidavit of loss or destruction in lieu thereof in accordance with this Section 1.8 (at which time such holder shall be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws, to receive all such dividends and distributions, without interest).

(d) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of CombiMatrix Stock Certificates as of the date 180 days after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Invitae upon demand, and any holders of CombiMatrix Stock Certificates who have not theretofore surrendered their CombiMatrix Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.8 shall thereafter look only to Invitae for satisfaction of their claims for Invitae Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Invitae Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Invitae Common Stock.

(e) Each of the Exchange Agent, Invitae and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Legal Requirement and shall be entitled to request any reasonably appropriate Tax forms, including Form W-9 (or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable), from any recipient of payments hereunder. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(f) No Party shall be liable to any holder of any CombiMatrix Stock Certificate or to any other Person with respect to any shares of Invitae Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or for any cash amounts delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Legal Requirement.

1.9 Further Action . If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by the Surviving Corporation to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of CombiMatrix, then the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be fully authorized, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts (in the name of CombiMatrix, in the name of Merger Sub and otherwise) to take such action.

1.10 Tax Consequences . For federal income tax purposes, the Merger, together with the Warrant Exchange Offer, is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The Parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the Treasury Regulations.

The disclosures in any section or subsection of the CombiMatrix Disclosure Schedule shall qualify other sections and subsections in this Section 2 to the extent it is reasonably clear from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other sections and subsections. The inclusion of any information in the CombiMatrix Disclosure Schedule (or any update thereto) shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material, has resulted in or would result in a CombiMatrix Material Adverse Effect, or is outside the Ordinary Course of Business.

by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies. Invitae and Merger Sub are each qualified to do business as a foreign corporation, and is in good standing, under the laws of all jurisdictions where the nature of its business requires such qualification other than in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified individually or in the aggregate would not be reasonably expected to have an Invitae Material Adverse Effect.

3.3 SEC Documents.

(a) Invitae has filed all reports required to be filed by it with the SEC since January 1, 2017, and Invitae has made available to CombiMatrix (including through the SEC’s EDGAR database) true, correct and complete copies of all such reports (collectively, the “ Invitae SEC Documents ”). As of their respective dates, each of the Invitae SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, and none of the Invitae SEC Documents, as of their respective dates, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All statements, reports, schedules, forms and other documents required to have been filed by Invitae or its officers with the SEC have been so filed on a timely basis. The certifications and statements required by (A) Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act and (B) 18 U.S.C. §1350 (Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) relating to the Invitae SEC Documents (collectively, the “ Invitae Certifications ”) are accurate and complete and comply as to form and content with all applicable Legal Requirements.

Other than as expressly disclosed in the Invitae SEC Documents filed prior to the date of this Agreement, there has been no material change in Invitae’s accounting methods or principles prior to the date of this Agreement that would be required to be disclosed in Invitae’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

3.6 Legal Proceedings; Orders . There is no pending Legal Proceeding, and, to the Knowledge of Invitae, no Person has threatened in writing to commence any Legal Proceeding, that challenges, or that may have the effect of preventing, delaying, making illegal or otherwise interfering with, the Merger or any of the other Contemplated Transactions.

All of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Merger Sub is, and at the Effective Time will be, owned by Invitae. Merger Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Contemplated Transactions, and it has not conducted any business prior to the date of this Agreement and has no, and prior to the Effective Time will have no, assets, liabilities or obligations of any nature other than those incident to its formation and pursuant to this Agreement, the Merger and the other actions contemplated by this Agreement.

Invitae covenants to CombiMatrix that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, including any pro forma financial statements included therein, will not, at the time that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto is filed with the SEC or is first mailed to the stockholders of CombiMatrix, at

the time of the CombiMatrix Stockholders’ Meeting and at the Effective Time, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Invitae makes no covenant, representation or warranty with respect to statements made in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus by CombiMatrix or based on information furnished by CombiMatrix for inclusion therein. Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Form S-4 Merger Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply with the applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff and to have the Form S-4 Merger Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after it is filed with the SEC. Prior to the Form S-4 Merger Registration Statement being declared effective, (1) CombiMatrix shall execute and deliver to Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, P.C. (“ Stradling ”) and to Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP (“ Pillsbury ”) the applicable “Tax Representation Letter” referenced in Section 5.9(c) ; and (2) Invitae shall execute and deliver to Pillsbury and to Stradling the applicable “Tax Representation Letter” referenced in Section 5.9(c) . Following the delivery of the Tax Representation Letters pursuant to the preceding sentence, (A) CombiMatrix shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Stradling to deliver to it a tax opinion satisfying the requirements of Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act; and (B) Invitae shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Pillsbury to deliver to it a tax opinion satisfying the requirements of Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

If any event relating to CombiMatrix occurs, or if CombiMatrix becomes aware of any information, that should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 Merger Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, then CombiMatrix shall promptly inform Invitae thereof and shall cooperate fully with Invitae in filing such amendment or supplement with the SEC and, if appropriate, in mailing such amendment or supplement to CombiMatrix’s stockholders.

(b) The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) do all things necessary or desirable to allow Invitae to commence an exchange offer (the “ Warrant Exchange Offer ”) whereby holders of CombiMatrix Series F Warrants may elect to exchange outstanding CombiMatrix Series F Warrants for shares of Invitae Common Stock on a basis determined by Invitae in its sole discretion, (ii) cooperate in securing the agreement of holders of CombiMatrix Series F Warrants to participate in the Warrant Exchange Offer such that at least 90% of the CombiMatrix Series F Warrants outstanding immediately prior to the date of this Agreement are exchanged in the Warrant Exchange Offer (such threshold of exchange or exercise, the “ Minimum Warrant Exchange Participation ”) and (iii) do all things necessary or desirable to allow Invitae to consummate the Warrant Exchange Offer at or immediately prior to the Closing assuming the Minimum Warrant Exchange Participation is met and that the Closing is otherwise ready to occur (including because the conditions set forth in Section 6 , Section 7 , and Section 8 have been satisfied or waived). Notwithstanding the foregoing, CombiMatrix shall have no

obligations under this Section 5.1(b) to the extent that Invitae has not offered shares of Invitae Common Stock with a value (based on the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value) of at least $2.90 (rounded to the nearest cent) per CombiMatrix Series F Warrant in the Warrant Exchange Offer. In connection with the Warrant Exchange Offer, the Parties shall cooperate with each other regarding, and prepare, offering documents, which the Parties will cause to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, for the purpose of effecting and consummating the Warrant Exchange Offer (the “ Offer Documents ”).

[Executives]

This TRANSACTION BONUS PAYOUT AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is entered into as of July 31, 2017 by and among Invitae Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ Invitae ”), CombiMatrix Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ CombiMatrix ”), and [●] (the “ Recipient ”). For purposes of this Agreement, the “ Invitae Group ” refers to Invitae, CombiMatrix and their respective affiliates.

WHEREAS, on December 2, 2015, CombiMatrix adopted the CombiMatrix Transaction Bonus Plan (the “ Transaction Bonus Plan ”) pursuant to which certain employees of CombiMatrix may receive transaction bonuses on a Qualifying Transaction (as defined in the Transaction Bonus Plan);

WHEREAS, the merger (the “ Merger ”) of Coronado Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Merger Sub ”), with and into CombiMatrix, with CombiMatrix continuing as the surviving corporation, pursuant to that Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the “ Merger Agreement ”), by and among Invitae, CombiMatrix and Merger Sub, shall constitute a Qualifying Transaction under the Transaction Bonus Plan;

WHEREAS, one or more Recipients concurrently herewith have entered into Independent Contractor Agreements with Invitae to become effective as of the Closing Date (each an “ Independent Contractor Agreement ”); and

WHEREAS, Invitae and CombiMatrix desire to set forth herein the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Recipient’s right to be paid a transaction bonus as defined in the Transaction Bonus Plan (the “ Transaction Bonus ”) shall be settled in connection with the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and premises described in this Agreement and other valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which the parties hereby acknowledge, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Effective Date . This Agreement is effective as of the date on which the closing of the Merger occurs (such date, the “ Closing Date ”). In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, this Agreement shall automatically be deemed null and void and of no further force and effect.

Transaction Bonus . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Transaction Bonus Plan as modified herein, Invitae shall grant the Recipient restricted stock units (“ RSUs ”) with respect to shares of Invitae Common Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement) on the Closing Date (or as soon as practicable thereafter). The number of shares of Invitae Common Stock subject to such RSUs shall be equal to the dollar amount of the transaction bonus awarded to the Recipient under the Transaction Bonus Plan divided by the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Such RSUs shall (a) be evidenced by, and subject to the terms of, an RSU award agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “ RSU Award

Agreement ”); (b) be settled in shares of Invitae Common Stock; and (c) vest upon the Closing Date and be settled in three equal monthly installments following the Closing Date in accordance with Section 5(j) of this Agreement, subject to acceleration of settlement upon a Change in Control (as defined in Invitae’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan); provided, however, that if the Recipient has an Independent Contractor Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date, then the shares shall vest as follows:

(i) On the Closing Date (or as soon thereafter as practical, subject to Section 5(j) of this Agreement), RSUs represented by (x) the dollar amount of the transaction bonus awarded to Recipient under the Transaction Bonus Plan minus $[817,834-Mark/$40,000-Scott], divided by (y) the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value shall vest and be settled; and

(ii) On the eight-month anniversary of the Closing Date, RSUs represented by $[817,834-Mark/$40,000-Scott] divided by the Invitae Trailing Average Share Value shall vest and be settled so long as the Recipient has rendered services as required by the Independent Contractor Agreement through the eight-month anniversary of the Closing Date except that, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in Invitae’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan) or a termination pursuant to Section 9(a), 9(c) or 9(e) of the Independent Contractor Agreement, all unvested RSUs shall vest immediately and shall be settled within five days of the consummation of the Change in Control or termination of the Independent Contractor Agreement, as applicable.

The grant of RSUs in accordance with this Agreement shall constitute payment of the Transaction Bonus in full settlement of all of the Recipient’s rights under the Transaction Bonus Plan, without regard to whether the Recipient ultimately earns or forfeits all or any portion of the RSUs subject to the grant. To the extent the shares of Invitae Common Stock underlying the RSUs are not covered by a registration statement that is effective before the Closing Date under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Act ”), and if the Recipient has an Independent Contractor Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date, Invitae will use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for such shares within fifteen days after the Closing Date, and if the Recipient does not have an Independent Contractor Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date and Form S-8 is not otherwise available for such registration, Invitae will use commercially reasonable efforts to register the shares for resale as soon as reasonably practicable on a registration statement on Form S-3 or another appropriate form in accordance with the Act.

3.	Conditions to Receipt of Transaction Bonus . The Recipient’s right to receive RSUs is conditioned on the Recipient’s execution of this Agreement and the Recipient’s continued employment with CombiMatrix until immediately prior to the Closing Date.

4.	Tax Withholding . Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, prior to settlement of any RSUs the Recipient shall pay, or make arrangements satisfactory to Invitae to satisfy, all associated tax withholding and payment obligations in accordance with the terms of the RSU Award Agreement.

5.	Miscellaneous .

(a)

Entire Agreement; Amendment . This Agreement and the Transaction Bonus Plan embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect of its subject matter and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter (whether or not written). In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Transaction Bonus Plan, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and the Transaction Bonus Plan shall be deemed amended with the consent of the Recipient accordingly. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by written agreement signed by the parties.

(b)

No Contract for Continuing Services . This Agreement shall not be construed as creating any contract for continued services between the Invitae Group and the Recipient and nothing herein contained shall give the Recipient the right to be retained as an employee, consultant or director of the Invitae Group.

(c)

No Transfers . The Recipient’s rights in the Transaction Bonus may not be assigned or transferred other than to the Recipient’s heirs by reason of the Recipient’s death.

(d)

Governing Law . This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any principles of conflict of laws of such state that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

(e)

Enforceability . If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(f)

Waiver . No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

(g)

Successors; Assignability . This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties, their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns; nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person or entity other than the parties and their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. The Recipient may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of the Recipient’s rights or obligations under this Agreement. Invitae or CombiMatrix may transfer or assign, in whole or from time to time in part, to one or more of its affiliates, or to any successor to one or more of its businesses, its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent signed by the Recipient.

(h)

Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(i)

S ection 280G.

(j)

Section 409A . This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (“ Section 409A ”) or an exemption therefrom and shall be interpreted, construed and administered in accordance with Section 409A or such exemption. To the extent that any amounts payable hereunder are determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, such amounts shall be subject to such additional rules and requirements in order to comply with Section 409A and the settlement of any such amounts may not be accelerated or delayed except to the extent permitted by Section 409A. All vested payments shall be paid or settled by March 15 of the subsequent year and provided further that the Recipient shall have no discretion to designate the timing of such payments or settlements for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(b). The Invitae Group makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Recipient or any other person if any payments under any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A that are subject to the 20% tax under Section 409A.

(k)

Cooperation. The parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other, at the request of any party, to modify the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement so long as any such modified arrangements do not leave any party in a worse position (in such party’s sole discretion).

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT


Payment for Restricted Stock Units		No cash payment is required for the Restricted Stock Units you receive. You are receiving the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the Transaction Bonus Payout Agreement in consideration for services rendered by you.

Vesting		The Restricted Stock Units that you are receiving may vest in one or more installments as shown in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award and the Transaction Bonus Payout Agreement referenced therein.

Nature of Restricted Stock Units		Your Restricted Stock Units are mere bookkeeping entries. They represent only the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Shares on a future date. As a holder of Restricted Stock Units, you have no rights other than the rights of a general creditor of the Company.

No Voting Rights or Dividends		Your Restricted Stock Units carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your Restricted Stock Units are settled by issuing Shares. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your Shares are issued.

Restricted Stock Units Nontransferable		You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Stock Units. For instance, you may not use your Restricted Stock Units as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, your Restricted Stock Units will immediately become invalid.

Settlement of Restricted Stock Units		Each of your vested Restricted Stock Units will be settled as provided in the Transaction Bonus Payout Agreement; provided, however, that if a settlement date does not fall on a permissible trading day for the Shares, settlement shall be deferred to the first permissible trading day for the Shares, but in no event later than December 31 of the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Units are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture for purposes of Section 409A (as defined below).

For purposes of this Agreement, “permissible trading day” means a day that satisfies all of the following requirements: (a) the exchange on which the Shares are traded is open for trading on that day; (b) you are permitted to sell Shares on that day without incurring liability under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (c) either (i) you are not in possession of material non-public information that would make it illegal for you to sell Shares on that day under Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act or (ii) Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act would apply to the sale; (d) you are permitted to sell Shares on that day under such written insider trading policy as may have been adopted by the Company; and (e) you are not prohibited from selling Shares on that day by a written agreement between you and the Company or a third party.

At the time of settlement, you will receive one Share for each vested Restricted Stock Unit; provided, however, that no fractional Shares will be issued or delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company will determine whether cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional Share or whether such fractional Share and any rights thereto will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.

In addition, Shares shall not be issued under this Agreement unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares complies with (or is exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations and the regulations of any stock exchange on which the Company’s securities may then be listed, and the Company has obtained the approval or favorable ruling from any governmental agency which the Company determines is necessary or advisable. The Company shall not be liable to you or other persons as to (a) the non-issuance or sale of Shares as to which the Company has not obtained from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares under this Agreement, and (b) any tax consequences expected, but not realized, by you or other person due to the receipt, vesting or settlement of this Award.

Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding

Regardless of any action the Company and/or the subsidiary or affiliate employing you or for which you are providing consulting services to takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or its subsidiary or affiliate (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Award, including the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) does not commit to structure the terms of this Award or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items.

R ESTRICTED S TOCK U NIT A GREEMENT

Prior to the settlement of your Restricted Stock Units, you shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the subsidiary or affiliate to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company and/or the subsidiary or affiliate. In this regard, if such withholding is legally required, you authorize the Company and/or the subsidiary or affiliate to withhold any applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the subsidiary or affiliate. With the Company’s consent, these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law, (a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when your Restricted Stock Units are settled, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The fair market value of these Shares, determined as of the effective date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. Finally, you shall pay to the Company or the subsidiary or affiliate any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the subsidiary or affiliate may be required to withhold as a result of your acquisition of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section, and your rights to the Shares shall be forfeited if you do not comply with such obligations on or before December 31 of the calendar year in which the applicable settlement date for the Restricted Stock Units occurs.

No Retention Rights

Neither your Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to provide services in any capacity. The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates reserve the right to terminate your employment or service at any time, with or without cause.

(a) Company Options . Prior to the Closing Date, the Company will send to Optionholders a notice specifying the number of shares of Company Common Stock into which the Company Options are exercisable and informing the Optionholders of the Transactions. Optionholders who exercise Company Options prior to the Closing Date will be treated as Stockholders with respect to any outstanding shares of Company Common Stock issued in respect of such exercised Options.

(a) the Closing Net Working Capital;

(b) the Company Transaction and Bonus Expenses;

(d) the resulting Final Merger Consideration.

The Final Calculation shall be accompanied by such supporting documentation reasonably necessary to derive the numbers set forth therein. The Final Calculation shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties unless Holders’ Representative delivers a written notice to Parent of any objection to the Final Calculation (the “ Objection Notice ”) within 30 (thirty) days (the “ Objection Period ”) after delivery of the Final Calculation. Any Objection Notice must set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Final Calculation that Holders’ Representative believes has not been prepared in accordance with this Agreement and the correct amount of such item and (ii) Holders’ Representative’s alternative calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, the Company Transaction and Bonus Expenses or Company Debt, as the case may be. Any Objection Notice must specify, with reasonable particularity, all facts that form the basis of such disagreements and all statements by Persons (who shall be identified by name) and documents relied upon by Holders’ Representative as forming the basis of such disagreement. If Holders’ Representative gives any such Objection Notice within the Objection Period, then Holders’ Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute concerning the item(s) subject to such Objection Notice. If Holders’ Representative and Parent do not resolve the issues raised in the Objection Notice within 30 days of the date of delivery of such notice (the “ Initial Resolution Period ”), such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.14.2 . Any item or amount which has not been disputed in the Objection Notice shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties on the expiration of the Initial Resolution Period.

2.14.2 Resolution of Disputes . If Parent and Holders’ Representative have not been able to resolve a dispute within the Initial Resolution Period, either Party may submit such dispute to and such dispute shall be resolved fully, finally and exclusively through the use of an independent accounting firm selected by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Holders’ Representative. If such independent accounting firm is not willing to serve as an independent accounting firm for this purpose, then another independent international accounting firm shall be selected to serve as such by mutual agreement of Parent and Holders’ Representative (such accounting firm, the “ Reviewing Party ”). The fees and expenses of the Reviewing Party incurred in the resolution of such dispute shall be borne by the parties in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Holders, Management Carveout Plan Participants and Parent from the resolution of the dispute. For example, if Holders’ Representative challenges the calculation in the Final Calculation by an amount of $100,000, but the Reviewing Party determines that Holders’ Representative has a valid claim for only $40,000, Parent shall bear 40% of the fees and expenses of the Reviewing Party and Holders’ Representative on behalf of the Holders and Management Carveout Plan Participants shall bear the other 60% of such fees and expenses. The Reviewing Party shall determine (with written notice thereof to Holders’ Representative and Parent) as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 30 days following the date on which Final Calculation and written submissions detailing the disputed items are delivered to the Reviewing Party (a) whether the Final Calculation was prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or, alternatively, (b) only with respect to the disputed items submitted to the Reviewing Party, whether and to what extent (if any) the Final Calculation requires adjustment and a written explanation in reasonable detail of each such required adjustment, including the basis therefor. Parent and Holders’ Representative shall require the Reviewing Party to enter into a confidentiality agreement on terms agreeable to Parent, Holders’ Representative and the Reviewing Party. The procedures of this Section 2.14.2 are exclusive and, the determination of the Reviewing Party shall be final and binding on the Parties. The decision rendered pursuant to this Section 2.14.2 may be filed as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

2.14.3 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment .

(a) The “ Post-Closing Adjustment ” shall be an amount equal to the Final Merger Consideration minus the Closing Date Merger Consideration and, for the avoidance of doubt, may be a positive or a negative number.

(b) If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, the Remaining Hold-Back Shares shall be adjusted as provided in the definition thereof (i.e., offsetting the Post-Closing Adjustment against the Remaining Hold-Back Shares).

(c) If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Parent shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the final determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment, issue certificates or book entries reflecting an amount of shares of Parent’s Common Stock equal to the quotient of (x) the Post-Closing Adjustment divided by (y) the Trailing Average Share Price

calculated as of the Signing Date, to be allocated among the Noteholders and the Management Carveout Plan Participants, in each case in accordance with the Note Termination Agreements and Management Carveout Plan, as applicable, and the Noteholders and Carveout Plan Allocation Schedule; provided , however , that any delivery of shares of Parent’s Common Stock to any Noteholder or Management Carveout Plan Participant shall be subject to the payment by such Noteholder or Management Carveout Plan Participant of such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Tax Law as well as the delivery of any reasonably appropriate Tax forms, including Form W-9 (or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable).

Section 2.15 Hold-Back Amount and Payment . On the date that is (i) twelve (12) months following the Closing Date or (ii) thirteen (13) months following the Closing Date if Parent, in its sole discretion, determines that additional time is necessary to assert a claim to exercise the Offset Right (either such date, the “ Hold-Back Payment Date ”), Parent shall deliver certificates or book entries reflecting the Remaining Hold-Back Shares, to be allocated among the Noteholders and the Management Carveout Plan Participants, in each case in accordance with the Note Termination Agreements and Management Carveout Plan, as applicable, and the Noteholders and Carveout Plan Allocation Schedule; provided , however , that if, when shares of Parent’s Common Stock would otherwise be distributed pursuant to this Section 2.15 , there shall exist a good faith claim by Parent to exercise the Offset Right, all or a portion of such shares as determined by Parent (in its reasonable discretion) to represent the Losses at issue (including, if applicable, as to any specific Noteholder or Management Carveout Plan Participant) shall be withheld from payment until such time as the claim has been perfected, in which case the Offset Right shall apply against such portion of the shares at issue and the balance of any withheld portion (if applicable) shall be distributed to the Noteholders and Management Carveout Plan Participants (or, as applicable, to the affected Noteholders and Management Carveout Plan Participants) as contemplated by this Agreement; and provided , further , that any delivery of shares of Parent’s Common Stock to any Noteholder or Management Carveout Plan Participant shall be subject to the payment by such Noteholder or Management Carveout Plan Participant of such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Tax Law as well as the delivery of any reasonably appropriate Tax forms, including Form W-9 (or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable)..
