Section 1.12. Section 368 Reorganization. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, provided, however, that in the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, determines that it must deduct or withhold any such amounts (except in the case of any compensatory payments made to employees subject to wage withholding), Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall provide at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Company, including a reasonably detailed explanation therefor, and shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in responding to any requests for information or clarification made by the Company in respect thereof. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authorities, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 1.14. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who is entitled to demand and has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (such shares of Company Common Stock being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws, or loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into a right to receive a portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration, but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, waives, withdraws, or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1 without interest thereon, upon transfer of such shares. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock, any waiver or withdrawal of any such demand, and any other demand, notice, or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time that relates to such demand. Except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, delayed or denied), the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer to settle, any such demands.

ARTICLE II

MERGER CONSIDERATION

Section 2.1. Conversion of Company Common Stock.

(a) Two Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (by 8:00 PM Eastern Time), the Company shall deliver to Parent a schedule setting forth each Stockholder (assuming the consummation of the Company SAFE Conversion), and such Stockholder’s respective percentage of the Merger Consideration (the “Equityholder Allocation Schedule”) determined pursuant to this Article II. If there is any change to the Equityholder Allocation Schedule between the time of such delivery and the Closing, the Company shall promptly deliver an updated Equityholder Allocation Schedule to Parent.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, each Stockholder’s shares of the Company Common Stock (other than Company Restricted Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (and after giving effect to the Company SAFE Conversion) shall be canceled and automatically converted into such Stockholder’s right to receive, without interest, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Company Restricted Common Stock) held by such Stockholder and (ii) the “Exchange Ratio” determined by dividing (x) the Merger Consideration (after giving effect to Section 2.2) by (y) the sum of the issued and outstanding number of shares of Company Common Stock as of the Closing.

(c) Schedule 2.1 sets forth a non-binding example of the Equityholder Allocation Schedule assuming the inputs set forth therein.

Section 2.2. Net Debt Adjustment. Two Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (the date of such calculation, the “Net Debt Calculation Date”), the Company shall deliver to Parent the calculation of Net Debt (by 8:00 PM Eastern Time). The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted as follows to account for the Net Debt: (a) if Net Debt is greater than $0.00 (the “Net Debt Target”), then the Merger Consideration shall be reduced at a rate of one share of Parent Common Stock for each $10.00 increment that the Net Debt is greater than the Net Debt Target; (b) if Net Debt is less than the Net Debt Target, then the Merger Consideration shall be increased at a rate of one share of Parent Common Stock for each $10.00 increment that the Net Debt is less than the Net Debt Target; or (c) if Net Debt equals the Net Debt Target, then no adjustment will be made to the Merger Consideration. Any adjustment to the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be in whole shares of Parent Common Stock and no adjustment shall be made for any divergence that is in an increment of $10.00 or less.

Section 2.3. Effect on Capital Stock of the Company. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, any shares of Company Common Stock then held by the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

Section 2.4. Effect on Company Options and Company Restricted Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each Company Option (whether vested or unvested) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and automatically converted into an option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (each an “Assumed Option”). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) that are subject to each Assumed Option shall be equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Option and (ii) the Exchange Ratio, and the exercise price per share of the Assumed Option (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of the Company Option by (B) the Exchange Ratio. Each Assumed Option will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Company Stock Plan and its applicable grant agreement (except any references therein to the Company or shares of Company Common Stock will instead mean the Parent and shares of Parent Common Stock, respectively). Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as any Assumed Options remain outstanding, a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon the exercise of such Assumed Options. The assumption of Company Options pursuant to this Section 2.4(a) shall be effected in a manner intended to satisfy the requirements of Sections 409A and 424(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each award of Company Restricted Stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and automatically converted into an award of restricted Parent Common Stock with the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Restricted Stock and (ii) the Exchange Ratio (the “Assumed Restricted Stock Award”). Each Assumed Restricted Stock Award will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement (except any references therein to the Company or shares of Company Common Stock will instead mean the Parent and shares of Parent Common Stock, respectively). Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon issuance of such Assumed Restricted Stock Award.

Section 2.5. Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of capital stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of Parent, be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub capital stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation’s capital stock that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). Each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of Merger Sub common stock will, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.6. Issuance of the Merger Consideration.

(a) No Issuance of Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to the Merger, and instead any such fractional share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded to the nearest whole share, with a Stockholder’s portion of the Merger Consideration that would result in a fractional share of 0.50 or greater rounding up and a Stockholder’s portion of the Merger Consideration that would result in a fractional share of less than 0.50 rounding down.

(b) Exchange Fund. On the Closing Date, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) for the benefit of the Stockholders, for exchange in accordance with this ARTICLE II, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to deliver the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement (such shares of Parent Common Stock, the “Exchange Fund”). Parent shall cause Continental, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to pay the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with the Equityholder Allocation Schedule and the other applicable provisions contained in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose other than as contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Exchange Procedures. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, and in any event within two Business Days following the Effective Time (but in no event prior to the Effective Time), Parent shall cause Continental to deliver to each Stockholder, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented by certificate or book-entry, a letter of transmittal and instructions for use in exchanging such Stockholder’s shares of Company Common Stock for such Stockholder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration from the Exchange Fund (a “Letter of Transmittal”), and promptly following receipt of a Stockholder’s properly executed Letter of Transmittal, deliver such Stockholder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration to such Stockholder.

(d) Adjustments. The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock occurring prior to the date the Merger Consideration is issued.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund relating to the Merger Consideration that remains undistributed to the Stockholders for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any Stockholders who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.6 shall thereafter look only to Parent for their portion of the Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by Stockholders as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

Section 2.7. No Liability. The Parties agree that Parent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on information set forth in the Equityholder Allocation Schedule and any amounts delivered by Parent to an applicable Stockholder in accordance with the Equityholder Allocation Schedule shall be deemed for all purposes to have been delivered to the applicable Stockholder in full satisfaction of the obligations of Parent under this Agreement and Parent shall not be responsible or liable for the calculations or the determinations regarding such calculations set forth therein.
