In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Company Common Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2 , each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time for all corporate purposes of the Surviving Corporation, except as limited by paragraph (c) below, to represent ownership of the number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock into which the number of shares of Company Common Stock shown thereon have been converted as contemplated by this Section 2.2 .
A- 3 |
(ii) Book-Entry Shares . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any holder of Shares converted pursuant to this Agreement into the right to receive shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock that are held in book-entry form (“ Book-Entry Shares ”) shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Surviving Corporation Common Stock that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1 . In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, that number of whole shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock (which shall be in book-entry form unless a certificate is requested), which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1 , and the Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.
(c) Distributions with Respect to Un-exchanged Shares . No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Surviving Corporation Common Stock with a record date on or after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any un-surrendered Shares with respect to the shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Shares shall surrender such Shares in accordance with this Section 2.2 . Subject to the effect of applicable Law, following surrender of any such Shares (including Shares represented by Certificates), there shall be paid to the record holder of whole shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date on or after the Effective Time which theretofore became payable, but which were not paid by reason of the immediately preceding sentence, with respect to such whole shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date on or after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock.
(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock . All shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Shares (including Shares represented by Certificates) in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the Effective Time in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Shares. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Shares (including Shares represented by Certificates) are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Section 2.2 .
(e) Termination of Exchange Reserve . Any portion of the Exchange Reserve which remains undistributed to the stockholders of the Company for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any stockholders of the Company who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.2 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar Laws) as general creditors for payment of their claim for Surviving Corporation Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to such Surviving Corporation Common Stock. The Surviving Corporation shall be not liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.
(f) Withholding Rights . The Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock, including any holder of Options who exercises such options in connection with the Merger, such amounts as the Surviving Corporation is required to deduct and withhold pursuant to the applicable rules under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation.
(g) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates . In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate(s)
A- 4 |
to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond in such sum as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate(s), the Exchange Agent will issue the shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock deliverable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates.
2.3. Tax Consequences .
(a) It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. The parties hereto adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Income Tax Regulations. The parties shall not take any position inconsistent with the foregoing intention on any Tax Return or in any administrative or judicial proceeding, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.
(b) Prior to the Effective Time, each of the Company and MM shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and shall not take any action reasonably likely to cause the Merger not so to qualify. The Surviving Corporation shall not take, or cause or permit its Affiliates to take, any action after the Effective Time that would cause the Merger not to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Following the Merger, MM shall continue the Company’s historic business or will use a significant portion of the Company’s historic business assets in a business within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(d) of the United States Income Tax Regulations.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.2(a) , prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholders’ Approval, the Company Board, directly or indirectly through any Representative, may, subject to Section 5.2(c) and Section 5.2(d) , (i) participate in negotiations or discussions with any third party from which the Company received an unsolicited Takeover Proposal that the Company Board believes in good faith could constitute or result in a Superior Proposal, (ii) thereafter furnish to such third party (and any persons acting in concert with such third party and to their respective financing sources and Representatives) non-public information relating to the Company or the Subsidiary pursuant to an executed confidentiality agreement that constitutes an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (a copy of which confidentiality agreement shall be promptly (in all events within twenty-four (24) hours) provided for informational purposes only to MM), (iii) following receipt of and on account of a Superior Proposal, make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and/or (iv) take any action that any court of competent jurisdiction orders the Company to take (which order remains unstayed), but in each case referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), only if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take any such action could reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to be in breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company Board from disclosing to the Company’s stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with regard to a Takeover Proposal and the filing with the SEC of such disclosure pursuant to Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) shall not constitute a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in and of itself, if the Company determines, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that failure to disclose such position would constitute a violation of applicable Law.
(c) The Company Board shall not take any of the actions referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 5.2(b) unless the Company shall have delivered to MM a prior written notice advising MM that it intends to take such action. The Company shall notify MM promptly (but in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours) after it obtains knowledge of the receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Takeover Proposal, any inquiry that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, any request for non-public information relating to the Company or the Subsidiary or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or the Subsidiary by any third party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholders’ Approval, the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into (or permit the Subsidiary to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement, if: (i) the Company promptly notifies MM, in writing, at least five (5) Business Days (the “ Notice Period ”) before making such Company Adverse Recommendation Change or entering into (or causing the Subsidiary to enter into) such Company Acquisition Agreement, of its intention to take such action with respect to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall state expressly that the Company has received a Takeover Proposal that the Company Board intends to declare a Superior Proposal and that the Company Board intends to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and/or the Company intends to enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement; (ii) the Company attaches to such notice the most current version of the proposed agreement for such Superior Proposal (which version shall be updated on a prompt basis) and the identity of the third party making such Superior Proposal; (iii) the Company shall, and shall cause the Subsidiary to, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its and the Subsidiary’s Representatives to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with MM in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Takeover Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, if MM, in its discretion, proposes to make such adjustments (it being agreed that in the event that, after commencement of the Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including, any revision in price, the Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least three (3) Business Days remains in the Notice Period subsequent to the time the Company notifies MM of any such material revision (it being understood that there may be multiple extensions)); and (iv) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel and the Company Financial Advisor, that such Takeover Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal after taking into account any adjustments made by MM during the Notice Period in the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
5.3. Third Party Standstill Agreements . During the period from the date hereof through the Effective Time, except as contemplated by Sections 5.2(b), (c) or (d), neither the Company nor the Subsidiary shall terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party. During such period, the Company shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including, but not limited to, by obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court having jurisdiction.
5.4. Takeover Statutes . If any “fair price”, “moratorium”, “control share acquisition” or other form of antitakeover statute or regulation shall become applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company and the members of the Company Board and MM and the members of its Board of Directors shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and thereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
5.5. Access to Information; Confidentiality .
(a) Each of the Company and MM shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, throughout the period from the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement, (i) provide the other party and its Representatives with reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to all officers, employees, agents and accountants of the Company or MM, as applicable, and its subsidiaries and their respective assets, properties, books and records, but only to the
A- 38 |
extent that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Company or MM, as applicable, and its subsidiaries, and (ii) furnish promptly to such Persons all other information and data concerning the business and operations of the Company or MM, as applicable, and its subsidiaries as the other party or any of such other Persons reasonably may request. Neither party nor any of such party’s subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would: (A) jeopardize the protection of the attorney-client privilege; (B) contravene any Law; or (C) contravene any confidentiality obligations in favor of a third party (it being agreed that the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such jeopardy or contravention). No investigation pursuant to this paragraph or otherwise shall affect any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any condition to the obligations of the parties hereto. Any such information or material obtained pursuant to this Section 5.5 that constitutes “Confidential Information” (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.
(b) Each party will hold, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, unless (i) compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of applicable Laws (including, without limitation, in connection with obtaining the necessary approvals of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby by a Governmental Entity), or (ii) disclosed in an action or proceeding brought by a party hereto in pursuit of its rights or in the exercise of its remedies hereunder, all documents and information concerning the other party and its subsidiaries furnished to it by such other party or its Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that such documents or information can be shown to have been (x) previously known by the Company or MM, as applicable, or its Representatives or Affiliates, (y) in the public domain (either prior to or after the furnishing of such documents or information hereunder) through no fault of the Company or MM, as applicable, and its Representatives or Affiliates or (z) later acquired by the Company or MM, as applicable, or its Representatives or Affiliates from another source if the recipient is not aware that such source is under an obligation to the Company or MM, as applicable, or such party’s Affiliates to keep such documents and information confidential. In the event that this Agreement is terminated without the transactions contemplated hereby having been consummated, upon the request of the Company or MM, as the case may be, the other party will, and will cause its Representatives to, promptly redeliver or cause to be redelivered all copies of documents and information furnished by the Company or MM, as applicable, or its Representatives to such party and its Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or destroy or cause to be destroyed all such documentation and information and all notes, memoranda, summaries, analyses, compilations and other writings related thereto or based thereon prepared by the Company or MM, as applicable, or its Representatives or Affiliates.
5.6. Preparation of Registration Statement and Proxy Statement, Charter Amendment .
(a) The Company and MM shall prepare and file with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof a single document constituting the Proxy Statement and Registration Statement. The Company and MM shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any event shall occur that should be set forth in an amendment of or a supplement to the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement, the Company and MM shall prepare and the Company shall file with the SEC such amendment or supplement as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable. No amendment or supplement to the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement will be made without the approval of each party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that the Company, in connection with a Company Adverse Recommendation Change made in compliance with the terms hereof (including Section 5.2 ), may amend or supplement the Proxy Statement and Registration Statement pursuant to an amendment or supplement to the extent it contains (i) a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, (ii) a statement of the reason of the Company Board for making such Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and (iii) additional information reasonably related to the foregoing. The Company and MM shall cooperate with each other in the preparation of the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto.
A- 39 |
(b) The Company and MM shall promptly notify the other and such other party’s counsel of the receipt of any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, from the SEC or its staff with respect to the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement and of any requests by the SEC or its staff for any amendment or supplement thereto or for additional information. The Company and MM shall promptly provide the other and such other party’s counsel with copies of all such comments or other communications between the SEC and such party or any of it Representatives with respect to the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement. The Company and MM shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response to those comments. Each of the Company and MM agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts, after consultation with the other party hereto, to respond promptly to all such comments of, and requests by, the SEC and to cause (i) the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC at the earliest practicable time and to be kept effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger, and (ii) the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the holders of Company Common Stock entitled to vote at the meeting of the stockholders of the Company at the earliest practicable time.

(d) If at any time prior to the Effective Time any event or circumstance relating to a party, or its officers or directors, is discovered that should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the combined Proxy Statement and Registration Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, such party shall promptly inform the other.
(e) Each party will advise the other, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the qualification (or suspension) of the Surviving Corporation Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction.

Subject to Section 5.2 , the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit proxies from Company stockholders in order to obtain the Company Stockholders’ Approval. Except as provided in Section 5.2 , the Company shall, through the Company Board, include in the Proxy Statement the Company Board Recommendation. In the event that the Company Stockholders’ Approval is not obtained on the date on which the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is initially convened, the Company Board shall have the right to adjourn such Company Stockholders’ Meeting on one or more occasions solely for the purpose of soliciting proxies from the Company’s stockholders in order to obtain the Company Stockholders’ Approval and, subject to Section 5.2 , shall use its commercially reasonable efforts during any such adjournments to obtain the Company Stockholders’ Approval. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting if this Agreement is terminated before the meeting is held.

A- 40 |
(b) In connection therewith, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the cancellation of the Company Warrants immediately prior to the Merger including, if permitted under the Company Warrant, by sending to the holders of such Company Warrants a notice forcing the exercise thereof. Any Warrant that is not so canceled prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed in accordance with its terms by the Surviving Corporation. MM and the Company pay in equal share all reasonable fees and other costs paid to the holders of all such Warrants for the cancellation of all such Warrants; provided, however, that no party shall settle with the holders of the Warrants without the consent of the other party hereto.
5.9. Stock Exchange Listing . MM shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock to be issued in the Merger in accordance with this Agreement to be approved for listing on the NYSE MKT, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

Each of MM and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts not to take or cause to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue (or fail to take or cause to take any action which would cause to be untrue) any of the facts or other information set forth or referred to in the tax representation letters.
5.11. Regulatory and Other Approvals; Further Assurances .
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Company and MM will proceed diligently and in good faith to, as promptly as practicable, (i) obtain all consents, approvals or actions of, make all filings (including any Form 8-K filings) with and give all notices to Governmental Entities or any other public or private third parties required to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) provide such other information and communications to such Governmental Entities or other public or private third parties as the other party or such Governmental Entity or other public or private third parties may reasonably request in connection therewith. No party shall consent to any voluntary extension of any statutory deadline or delay the consummation of the Merger at the request of a Governmental Entity without the consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such filings and notices made by a party shall be provided for review and comment by the other party and shall not be filed or made until reasonably acceptable to both parties.
(b) Each party hereto will, either prior to or after the Effective Time, execute such further documents, instruments, deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and take such further actions as may reasonably be requested by the other to consummate the Merger to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all assets, properties, privileges, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of either of the Company or MM or to effect the other purposes of this Agreement.
5.12. Equity-Based Awards .
(a) The terms of each Option, whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Effective Time, each Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be replaced by and substituted for an option (each, an “ Adjusted MM Option ”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of Surviving Corporation Common Stock subject to any such Adjusted MM Option will be an amount equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional cents rounded up to the next higher number of whole cents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conversion of an Option in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 5.12(a) would cause the related Adjusted MM Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such Option shall not be converted in accordance with the
A- 41 |
preceding provisions but shall instead be converted in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Surviving Corporation and the Company that would not cause the related Adjusted MM Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A. For avoidance of doubt, each Adjusted MM Option shall be vested to the same extent to which the Option for which it was substituted was vested before or as of the Effective Time.
(b) The terms of each restricted stock unit that is settleable in shares of Company Common Stock (a “ Company RSU ”) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time and does not fully vest by its terms as of the Effective Time (an “ Unvested Company RSU ”) shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Effective Time, each Unvested Company RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be replaced by and substituted for a restricted stock unit (each, an “ Adjusted MM RSU ”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. For avoidance of doubt, each Adjusted MM RSU shall be vested to the same extent to which the Unvested Company RSU for which it was substituted was vested before or as of the Effective Time.
(c) To the extent permitted under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) (if applicable), the holder of each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and becomes vested by its terms before or as of the Effective Time (it being understood that any such award that vests pursuant to its terms before or as of the Effective Time shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be vested immediately prior to the Effective Time) (a “ Vested Company RSU ”) shall receive the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company RSU in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Vested Company RSU, including any terms and conditions regarding any Taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld, if any, with respect to the vesting of such Vested Company RSU.
(d) The parties covenant to cause the Surviving Corporation to (x) take such actions as are necessary to establish a new omnibus equity award plan following the Effective Time and to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form, or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the Securities Act, with respect to the awards and shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock subject to the Adjusted MM Options and Adjusted MM RSUs and other awards issued under such plan and, where applicable, (y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable following the Effective Time and (z) use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement covering such Adjusted MM Options and Adjusted MM RSUs (and to maintain the current status of the prospectus contained therein) for so long as any Adjusted MM Option or any Adjusted MM RSU remains outstanding.
(e) With respect to those individuals, if any, who, subsequent to the Effective Time, will be subject to the reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, where applicable, the Surviving Corporation shall administer any Adjusted MM Option and any Adjusted MM RSU assumed pursuant to this Section 5.12 in a manner that complies with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act to the extent such Adjusted MM Option or such Adjusted MM RSU complied with such rule prior to the Merger.
(f) The Company and MM acknowledge and agree that the substitution of Options and Unvested Company RSUs for Adjusted MM Options and Adjusted MM RSUs, respectively, as provided in this Section 5.12 shall constitute the substitution of “Plan Awards” (as defined in the Company Option Plan) for equivalent awards of the Surviving Corporation for purposes of the Company Option Plan and such Plan Awards.
5.13. Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance .
(a) From and after the Effective Time and until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time and for so long thereafter as any claim for indemnification asserted on or prior to such date has not been fully adjudicated, the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Person who is now,

or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of the Company or the Subsidiary (the “ Indemnified Parties ”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), Liabilities, judgments, fines and settlement amounts that are paid or incurred in connection with any Legal Action (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time) that is based directly or indirectly (in whole or in part) on, or arises directly or indirectly (in whole or in part) out of, the fact that such Indemnified Party is or was a director or officer of the Company or the Subsidiary and relates to or arises out of any action or omission occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby) (“ Indemnified Liabilities ”) to the fullest extent permissible under applicable Law; provided that the Surviving Corporation shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim effected without its prior written consent; and provided , further , that the Surviving Corporation shall not be liable for any Indemnified Liabilities which occur as a result of fraud or the unlawful criminal actions, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party.

(c) The Company shall purchase, at its own cost and expense, at the Effective Time, a six-year prepaid “tail policy” with coverage not less than the existing coverage and other terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as those contained in the applicable directors and officers insurance policy of the Company in effect as of the date hereof; provided that the aggregate premium for such “tail policy” shall not exceed 300% of the amount per annum the Company paid in its last full fiscal year.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.13 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and each party entitled to insurance coverage under Section 5.13(c) above, respectively, and his or her heirs and legal representatives, and shall be in addition to any other rights an Indemnified Party may have under the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other comparable charter documents of the Company, the Subsidiary, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries, under applicable Law or otherwise or under any agreement of any Indemnified Party with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(1) The Shares are owned by the Holder free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, claims, pledges, impositions or defects in title.
(2) There are no options, warrants, voting, proxy, power of attorney or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character to which the Holder is a party relating to the pledge, disposition or voting of any of the Shares and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Shares.

(5) The Holder hereby represents and warrants to Majesco that (i) it has full power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Holder, enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its terms.
