Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Merger Agreement

On January 12, 2021, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “QTI”), and Nile Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with NuVia, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NuVia”), and Shareholder Representative Services, LLC (solely in its capacity as securityholders’ agent), providing for the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into NuVia, with NuVia surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger has been approved by the requisite number of NuVia’s stockholders.

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), holders of NuVia preferred stock and NuVia common stock (collectively, “NuVia Capital Stock”) and holders of in-the-money vested issued and outstanding options to purchase shares of common stock of NuVia (“In-the-Money Vested Options”) shall be entitled to receive their pro rata portion of cash equal to (1)(A)$1,400,000,000, plus (B) the aggregate exercise price of all In-the-Money Vested Options, plus or minus (C) working capital adjustment (if any), plus or minus (D) net cash adjustment amount (if any), divided by (2) NuVia’s fully diluted capitalization, in each case, as further described below (such quotient, the “Per Share Consideration”).

Treatment of NuVia Capital Stock

At the Effective Time, each share of NuVia Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by (i) NuVia, the Company or Merger Sub or (ii) stockholders who have properly exercised and perfected appraisal/dissenter rights under Delaware and/or California law) will be converted and exchanged into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Per Share Consideration, less an amount in cash equal to the sum of (a) with respect to certain holders of NuVia common stock (“Specified Holders”), 10% of Per Share Consideration, which shall be held back by QTI for release upon certain conditions, and (b) the pro rata portion of the escrow and expense fund.

The shares of common stock of NuVia held by the Specified Holders that are subject to a right of forfeiture as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be canceled, converted and exchanged into the right to receive shares of common stock of QUALCOMM Incorporated (“Qualcomm”), subject to certain vesting conditions, provided that 10% of such shares of Qualcomm common stock shall be held back by QTI for release upon certain conditions.

Treatment of NuVia Options

Each In-the-Money Vested Option that is issued and outstanding prior the Effective Time, will be converted and exchanged into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the amount by which (i) the Per Share Consideration exceeds (ii) the exercise price for such In-the-Money Option, less the pro rata portion of the escrow and expense fund.

Each unvested option to purchase shares of common stock of NuVia (“Unvested Company Option”) that is held by an employee or contractor that will continue providing services to NuVia after the Effective Time and that has an exercise price less than the Per Share Consideration, shall be converted into an option to acquire shares of common stock of Qualcomm. Further, each Unvested Company Option that is held by a person that will not continue to provide services after the Effective Time, will be canceled and retired without payment therefor and cease to exist.

Treatment of Restricted Stock Units

At the Effective Time, QTI shall assume each outstanding restricted stock unit of NuVia held by an employee or contractor that will continue providing services to NuVia after the Effective Time, and such assumed restricted stock units shall have the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that such restricted stock units shall be settled by the issuance of Qualcomm common stock rather than NuVia common stock.

Certain Closing Conditions

The Merger is subject to clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and satisfaction of obligations relating to 280G “golden parachute” matters, as well as other customary closing conditions.

Other

NuVia and QTI each made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement contains certain customary termination rights for the Company and NuVia.




A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement.

25 immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, plus (ii) that number (if any) of additional shares of Acquiror Parent Common Stock payable with respect to any dividend equivalents that accrue with respect to such assumed Company Restricted Stock Units on and after the Effective Time.

Subject to the Closing and upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Acquiror, together with such Letter of Transmittal and other documents, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefore an amount in cash equal to the portion of the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Section 2, less such portion of the Merger Consideration to be deposited by Acquiror with the Escrow Agent on such holder’s behalf pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof. The Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Company Capital Stock will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes other than the payment of dividends, to evidence the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration which shall be issued for such Company Capital Stock. (d) Return of Exchange Fund. If after five (5) years, any shares of Company Capital Stock remain unexchanged or any payments remain unpaid, and any amounts remaining in the Exchange Fund are not escheatable in accordance with unclaimed property laws and regulations, then any amounts remaining in the Exchange Fund may be delivered to Acquiror or its designee. Thereafter, Acquiror shall be responsible for compliance with unclaimed property obligations. (e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.7, neither the Paying Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. (f) Dissenting Shares. The provisions of this Section 2.7 shall also apply to Dissenting Shares that lose their status as such, except that the obligations of Acquiror under this Section 2.7 shall commence on the date of loss of such status and the holder of such shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange for such shares the Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof.


 
29 2.8 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Capital Stock. The Merger Consideration delivered upon the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section 2. 2.9 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such Merger Consideration as may be required pursuant to Section 2.6; provided, however, that Acquiror or the Paying Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Acquiror, the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 2.10 Escrow, Transaction Expenses and Expense Fund. (a) Escrow. At the Closing, Acquiror shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Escrow Agent in immediately available funds the Escrow Amount (which amounts shall be withheld from the cash payable pursuant to Section 2.6 to the Effective Time Holders as provided for herein). The Escrow Amount shall constitute security solely for the obligations of such Effective Time Holders pursuant to Section 2.12 and Section 9, and shall be held in and distributed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that, subject to the terms therein, any Escrow Amount remaining on the Release Date shall be released to the Effective Time Holders (other than Dissenting Stockholders) in accordance with each such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion as set forth on the Payment Schedule (subject to any reserve for pending claims). The account into which the Escrow Amount is deposited is referred to herein as the “Escrow Account”. The adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the Stockholders shall constitute approval of the Escrow Agreement and of all of the arrangements related thereto, including the placement of the Escrow Amount in escrow and the appointment of the Securityholders’ Agent. (b) Transaction Expenses. On the Closing Date, Acquiror shall pay, or cause to be paid, the Transaction Expenses as set forth in the final Representative Confirmation Letters provided by the Company to Acquiror in accordance with Section 2.6(h) hereof. (c) Expense Fund. On the Closing Date, Acquiror shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, an aggregate amount equal to $2,500,000 (the “Expense Fund”) to the Securityholders’ Agent to be held by the Securityholders’ Agent as agent and for the benefit of the Effective Time Holders in a segregated account to be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Securityholders’ Agent for any expenses incurred pursuant to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other agreements ancillary hereto. The Effective Time Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the


 
30 Securityholders’ Agent any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Securityholders’ Agent will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Securityholders’ Agent is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice. The Securityholders’ Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Securityholders’ Agent is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Expense Fund, and has no tax reporting obligations in connection with the Expense Fund. As soon as practicable following the completion of the Securityholders’ Agent’s responsibilities, the Securityholders’ Agent shall distribute the remaining Expense Fund (if any) to the Paying Agent for further distribution to the Effective Time Holders based on their respective Pro Rata Portions of such amount. 2.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. Each of Acquiror, Merger Sub and the Company will take all such reasonable and lawful action as may be necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the Merger in accordance with this Agreement as promptly as possible. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Company and Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement. 2.12 Adjustments. (a) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Acquiror a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Estimated Closing Certificate”) setting forth (i) the Estimated Working Capital, (ii) the Estimated Net Cash, (iii) a proposed consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as of the anticipated Closing Date, which shall have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the Company’s past practices used in preparation of the Company Financial Statements (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”), and (iv) the Company’s calculation of each of the components of the Estimated Working Capital and the Estimated Net Cash, and the aggregate amounts thereof. The Estimated Closing Certificate shall be used to make any preliminary adjustment to the Merger Consideration on the Closing Date pursuant to Sections 2.12(b) and 2.12(c), subject to further adjustment in accordance with Section 2.12(f). (b) In the event that the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Target, then the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted downward by the amount by which the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Target. In the event that the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Target, then the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted upward by the amount by which the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Target. The adjustments, if any, referred to in this Section 2.12(b) are referred to herein as the “Working Capital Adjustment Amount.”


 
31 (c) In the event that the Estimated Net Cash is a negative amount (i.e., less than $0), then the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted downward by the amount by which the Estimated Net Cash is less than $0. In the event that the Estimated Net Cash is a positive amount (i.e., greater than $0), the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted upward by the amount by which the Estimated Net Cash is greater than $0. The adjustments, if any, referred to in this Section 2.12(c) are referred to herein as the “Net Cash Adjustment Amount.” (d) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Securityholders’ Agent a certificate (the “Closing Certificate”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, (i) the Final Working Capital, (ii) the Final Net Cash, (iii) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with Company’s past practices used in preparing the Company Financial Statements (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and (iv) Acquiror’s calculation of each of the components of the Final Working Capital and Final Net Cash, and the aggregate amounts thereof. (e) The Securityholders’ Agent shall have thirty (30) days from the date on which the Closing Certificate and the Closing Balance Sheet have been delivered to it to raise any objection(s) to the Closing Certificate or the Closing Balance Sheet, by delivery of written notice to Acquiror setting forth such objection(s) in reasonable detail (the “Disputed Items”). In the event that the Securityholders’ Agent shall not deliver any such objection(s) with respect to the Closing Certificate or the Closing Balance Sheet within such thirty (30)-day period, then the Closing Certificate shall be deemed final for purposes of this Section 2.12. In the event that any such objection(s) are so delivered, the Closing Certificate shall be deemed not final and Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent shall attempt, in good faith, to resolve the Disputed Items and, if they are unable to resolve all of the Disputed Items within thirty (30) days of delivery of such notice, shall, within five (5) Business Days thereafter (or such earlier date as mutually agreed), submit the Disputed Items to the Independent Accounting Firm. Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent shall provide to the Independent Accounting Firm all work papers and back-up materials relating to the Disputed Items requested by the Independent Accounting Firm to the extent available to Acquiror or its Representatives or the Securityholders’ Agent or its Representatives; provided, however, that any materials so provided to the Independent Accounting Firm shall also be made available to the other disputing party hereto. Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm any material related to the Disputed Items and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accounting Firm. No party shall have or conduct any communication with the Independent Accounting Firm related to the Disputed Items without the other party either being present or, with respect to written communication, sending to the other party a concurrent copy thereof. The Independent Accounting Firm shall base its determination solely on the presentations and supporting material provided by the parties. In resolving any Disputed Item, the Independent Accounting Firm shall not assign a value to any item higher than the highest value for such item, or lower than the lowest value for such item, claimed by either Acquiror or the Securityholders’ Agent. The determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent within thirty (30) days after the submission of the Disputed Items to the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be final, binding and conclusive on Acquiror, the Securityholders’ Agent and the Effective Time Holders. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be split equally between Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent (solely


 
32 on behalf of the Effective Time Holders). The Final Working Capital and the Final Net Cash reflected in the Closing Certificate, as revised to reflect the resolution of any and all disputes by Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent and/or the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be deemed to be the “Final Working Capital” and the “Final Net Cash”, respectively. (f) At such time as the Closing Certificate shall become final in accordance with Section 2.12(e), the Estimated Working Capital shall be compared to the Final Working Capital, and the Estimated Net Cash shall be compared to the Final Net Cash. (i) In the event that the aggregate of the Final Working Capital and the Final Net Cash is less than the aggregate of the Estimated Working Capital and the Estimated Net Cash, then (A) Acquiror shall be entitled to immediate payment from the Escrow Account of an amount equal to such deficiency, and (B) the Securityholders’ Agent and Acquiror shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, within two (2) Business Days following the finalization of the Closing Certificate, a written notice executed by both parties instructing the Escrow Agent to make such payment to Acquiror from the Escrow Account. (ii) In the event that the aggregate of the Final Working Capital and the Final Net Cash is greater than the Estimated Working Capital and the Estimated Net Cash, then Acquiror shall deposit the amount of the difference with the Paying Agent to be immediately distributed to the Effective Time Holders (other than Dissenting Stockholders) in accordance with each such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion of such amount as set forth on the Payment Schedule until the amount of such difference has been fully distributed; provided that (A) the payment of such amount allocable to Employee Optionholders may be paid to the Company or its designated payroll service provider, for disbursement to such holders, and (B) unless a Vesting Acceleration Event has occurred with respect to the applicable Founder or Founder Transferee, ten percent (10%) of any amount payable to a Founder or Founder Transferee shall be held back by Acquiror and shall be subject to the applicable Holdback Agreement. 2.13 Tax Withholding. Acquiror or Acquiror’s agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration, or any other payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld under the Code or any provision of Applicable Law and to request any necessary Tax forms or information, including Form W-9 or the appropriate series of Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information, and to share such forms with Acquiror, its Affiliates and the Paying Agent. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and timely paid to the appropriate Governmental Entity (or other applicable Person), such deducted and withheld and timely paid amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made. 3.

74 than a similarly-situated employee of Acquiror and other compensation and benefits that are no less favorable than the compensation and benefits in the aggregate enjoyed by similarly-situated employees of Acquiror or is Affiliates (excluding equity compensation, severance pay and benefits, and defined benefit pension plan benefits). Acquiror may also seek written confirmation from any employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary that such employee intends to continue employment after the Closing.

(d) To the extent permitted by the applicable plan, Acquiror shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit Continuing Employees to make rollover contributions to a defined contribution plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code sponsored or maintained by Acquiror or one of its Affiliates of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in the form of cash, notes (in the case of loans) or a combination thereof in an amount equal to the full account balance (including earnings thereon) distributed to such Continuing Employee from the 401(k) Plan. (e) During the Pre-Closing Period on at least a weekly basis, the Company shall update the Company Employee Schedule, in accordance with Section 3.23(a), to reflect any and all changes in any information listed on the Company Employee Schedule,


 
75 including any changes in compensation and any terminations or new hires of employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

Such grant of Company Restricted Stock Units shall be conditioned on such holder’s execution of a grant notice, which shall include a release of claims, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (a “New RSU Grant Notice”). The Company Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 6.8(f) shall vest over the same period of time as the Early Exercise Restricted Shares would have vested; provided that such Company Restricted Stock Units shall vest on a quarterly basis, as set forth on Schedule 6.8(f) instead of monthly. (g) Prior to the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors shall take such action as shall be necessary in order to amend the exercise price of the Company Options referenced on Schedule 6.8(g) (the “Specified Options”) to an amount not less than the “fair market value” of the underlying Company Common Stock on the date of grant in accordance with correction methods provided in IRS Notice 2008-113. The Company shall provide evidence of such correction to the Acquiror in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror. (h) Prior to the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors shall take such action as shall be necessary in order to grant to each Person that is a counterparty to an offer letter set forth on Schedule 6.8(h) that is a Continuing Employee or Continuing Independent Contractor: (i) with respect to that portion of the Company Option promised to such Person in such Person’s offer letter (a “Pre-Signing Promised Option”) that would have been unvested as of the Closing had such Pre-Signing Promised Option been issued prior to the Closing, a number of Company Restricted Stock Units equal to: (A) (I) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Pre-Signing Promised Option that would have been unvested as of the Closing, multiplied by the Per Share Consideration, minus (II) an amount equal to the per share exercise price of the most recently issued Company Options issued prior to the date hereof (prior to any correction pursuant to Section 6.8(g)), multiplied by such number of unvested shares, divided by (B) the Per Share Consideration, rounded down to the nearest whole number, and (ii) in the event that a portion of the Pre-Signing Promised Option would have been vested as of the Closing, grant to such holder a cash bonus payment


 
76 (a “Promised Option Bonus Payment”), payable upon the Closing, equal to (A) the number of shares of vested Company Common Stock that would have been issuable upon exercise of such Pre-Signing Promised Option, multiplied by the Per Share Consideration, minus (B) what would have been the aggregate exercise price of such vested portion of the Pre-Signing Promised Option. Such grant of Company Restricted Stock Units and payment of any Promised Option Bonus Payment shall be conditioned on the applicable Person’s execution of a grant notice (a “Promised Option RSU Grant Notice”) (and, if applicable, bonus acknowledgment) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror, which shall include a release of claims. The Company Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 6.8(h) shall vest over the same period of time as the applicable Pre-Signing Promised Option would have vested; provided that such Company Restricted Stock Units shall vest on a quarterly basis, as set forth on Schedule 6.8(f) instead of monthly. (i) Prior to the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors shall take such action as shall be necessary in order to accelerate, as of the Closing, the vesting of the restricted stock award referenced on Schedule 6.8(i); provided that the recipient thereof is a Continuing Independent Contractor. (j) Prior to the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors shall take such action as shall be necessary in order to grant to each Person that commences employment prior to the Closing and is a Continuing Employee (a “New Hire”): (i) if such New Hire was offered a Company Option in such New Hire’s executed offer letter, a number of Company Restricted Stock Units equal to (A) (I) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Option, minus (II) an amount equal to the per share exercise price of the most recently issued Company Options issued prior to the date hereof (prior to any correction pursuant to Section 6.8(g)), multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Option, divided by (B) the Per Share Consideration, rounded down to the nearest whole number, and (ii) if such New Hire was offered Company Restricted Stock Units in such New Hire’s executed offer letter, that number of Company Restricted Stock Units offered to such Person, with any per share calculations with respect thereto based on the Per Share Consideration. Such grant of Company Restricted Stock Units shall be conditioned on the applicable New Hire’s execution of a grant notice in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror, which shall include a release of claims. The Company Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 6.8(j) shall vest over the same period of time as was promised in the applicable offer letter; provided that such Company Restricted Stock Units shall vest on a quarterly basis, as set forth on Schedule 6.8(f) instead of monthly. (k) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this this Section 6.8 shall not create any right in any employee of the Company or any Company


 
77 Subsidiary, or any other Person, to any continued employment with the Surviving Corporation, Acquiror or any of its Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever. 6.9 Expenses. Whether or not the Merger is consummated and except as expressly set forth herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expense.

To the extent requested by Acquiror, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain (a) the consent to any Contract for which consent is required in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) the terminations set forth on Schedule7.2(q), and shall deliver such consents and terminations to Acquiror. 6.12 Tax Matters. (a) Allocation of Taxes. In the case of any Taxes relating to a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (the “Straddle Period”), the portion of such Tax which relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, gains or receipts be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date. (b) Preparation of Returns. Acquiror shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Returns for the Company any the Company Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period and Straddle Period that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. All Returns filed by Acquiror after the Closing Date will be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice and custom of the Company to the extent consistent with Applicable Law. Acquiror shall permit the Securityholders’ Agent to review and comment on each income and other material Tax Return relating to or including a Pre-Closing Tax Period at least thirty (30) days prior to filing and shall consider in good faith any requested revisions. (c) Tax Contests.

After the Closing Date, Acquiror shall have the exclusive right to represent the


 
78 interests of the Company in any and all Tax Contests; provided, however, that the Securityholders’ Agent shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest and to employ counsel at the Effective Time Holders’ expense of its choice (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to Acquiror) for purposes of such participation to the extent that any such Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to result in a Tax indemnification liability of the Effective Time Holders pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that Acquiror proposes to compromise or settle any Tax Contest, or consent or agree to any Tax liability, relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary that would result in an indemnity payment by the Effective Time Holders, the Securityholders’ Agent shall have the right to review such proposed compromise, settlement, consent or agreement. Acquiror shall not agree or consent to compromise or settle any Tax Contest on a basis that would result in a Tax liability of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or liability of the Effective Time Holders for indemnification unless the Securityholders’ Agent consents to such settlement, compromise or concession, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the case of a conflict between the provisions of this Section 6.12(c) and the provisions of Section 9, the provisions of this Section 6.12(c) shall control. (d) Cooperation.

The party responsible under Applicable Law for submitting payment of such Taxes to the applicable Tax authority shall file all necessary Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees. If required by Applicable Law, Acquiror or the Company shall join in the execution of any such Returns and other documentation. 6.13 D&O Indemnification Matters. (a) If the Merger is consummated, then until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Acquiror shall cause (and Acquiror shall cause Acquiror Parent to cause) the Surviving Corporation or its successors to, fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company to its current and former directors and officers (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) pursuant to any indemnification, exculpation or expense advancement provisions under the Restated Certificate or the Bylaws (as in effect on the date hereof) and pursuant to any indemnification agreements between the Company and such Company Indemnified Parties in effect as of the date hereof (the “Company Indemnification Provisions”), with respect to claims arising out of matters, acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective


 
79 Time (regardless of whether any proceeding relating to any Company Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification, exculpation or expense advancement with respect to any such matters, acts or omissions is commenced before or after the Effective Time). Any claims for indemnification made under this Section 6.13(a) on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time shall survive such anniversary until the final resolution thereof. (b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall purchase a fully prepaid “tail” policy under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, which (i) has an effective term of six years from the Effective Time, (ii) covers those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in effect as of the date hereof for matters, acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and (iii) contains other coverage terms comparable to those under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (the “D&O Tail Policy”). The cost of the D&O Tail Policy shall be treated as a Transaction Expense hereunder. If the Merger is consummated, then Acquiror will not cancel the D&O Tail Policy during its term. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such Company Indemnified Party will have any right of indemnification or right of advancement from the Surviving Corporation or its successors or Acquiror pursuant to this Section 6.13 with respect to any Damages recoverable by any of the Acquiror Indemnified Persons from such Company Indemnified Party in his or her capacity as an Effective Time Holder pursuant to Section 9. 6.14 280G Approval. The Company shall engage a “Big Four” accounting firm with expertise in preparing calculations relating to Section 280G of the Code to prepare an analysis for the Company no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. As promptly as practicable after the date hereof (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date) and provided that Acquiror has provided the Company with a description of any payment or benefit that Acquiror or its Affiliates intends to offer to any person who may receive a parachute payment within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (collectively, “Section 280G”), the Company shall submit to the Stockholders, for approval by the Stockholders holding the number of shares of Company Capital Stock required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, a written consent in favor of a single proposal to render the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits provided pursuant to Company Employee Plans or other plans, programs, arrangements or contracts that might result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount and/or the provision of any benefit that causes the payments and/or benefits to not be deductible by reason of Section 280G or that would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code (together, the “Section 280G Payments”). Such Stockholder approval and consent materials, including the calculations prepared by the Company or the Company’s advisors to determine the Section 280G Payments (collectively, the “280G Information Statement”), shall be subject to prior review by Acquiror, and such review shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any such Stockholder approval shall be sought by the Company in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such Treasury Regulations. The Company agrees that: (i) in the absence of such Stockholder approval, no Section 280G Payments shall be made; and (ii) promptly after the date hereof (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days prior to the submission to its Stockholders of the 280G Information Statement), the Company


 
80 shall deliver to Acquiror a waiver, in a form substantially similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (each, a “280G Waiver”), of the right to receive Section 280G Payments duly executed by each Person who might receive a Section 280G Payment. 6.15 Termination of 401(k) Plan. Unless otherwise requested by Acquiror in writing no less than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, immediately prior to the Closing, the Company will terminate any Company Employee Plans that are “employee benefit plans” within the meaning of ERISA, including the Company’s 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) or to the extent the Company does not maintain but participates in a Company Employee Plan maintained by an ERISA Affiliate, the Company will terminate its participation in such Company Employee Plan, to be effective on the date immediately preceding the Effective Time and contingent upon the Closing. 6.16 Form S-8. Acquiror will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquiror Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the assumed Company Options or settlement of assumed Company Restricted Stock Units for which a Form S-8 registration statement is available to be registered with the SEC on Form S-8 no later than thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (assuming timely receipt of the Payment Schedule, all option and restricted stock unit documentation relating to the Company Options and Company Restricted Stock Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and all signatures, opinions and consents required for such registration statement), will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such assumed Company Options and Company Restricted Stock Units remain outstanding and will reserve a sufficient number of shares of Acquiror Parent Common Stock for issuance upon exercise or settlement thereof. If so requested by Acquiror, prior to the Effective Time, the Company and its counsel shall reasonably cooperate with and assist Acquiror in the preparation of such registration statement. The Form S-8 registration statement shall not cover the shares of Acquiror Parent Common Stock subject to any Company Options or Restricted Stock Units assumed by Acquiror which are held by Persons who do not become employees of the Acquiror at the Effective Time or do not otherwise have a service relationship with the Acquiror at the Effective Time. 6.17 Resale Registration Statement. (a) Provided that all recipients of Acquiror Parent Shares and potential recipients of Holdback Shares, Additional Holdback Shares and Dividend Shares have adequately and timely provided Acquiror with all selling shareholder information required to be included therein, Acquiror shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) file, or cause to be filed, with the SEC within thirty (30) days of the Closing, a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Resale Shelf”) registering the resale of the Acquiror Parent Shares, the Holdback Shares, the Additional Holdback Shares and the Dividend Shares, (ii) have the Resale Shelf declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing (if it does not become effective automatically upon such filing), and (iii) maintain the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf until the latest to occur of (A) the date that the Acquiror Parent Shares and any Dividend Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Holdback Shares and the Additional Holdback Shares issued pursuant to any Holdback Agreement, and any Indemnification Shares issued pursuant to any Founder Share Acknowledgment Agreement are no longer Registrable Securities (as provided in the definition therein), (B) the last date on which Acquiror Parent Shares or Indemnification Shares may be


 
81 issued, as provided in the Founder Share Acknowledgment Agreements, and (C) the last date on which Holdback Shares or Additional Holdback Shares may be issued, as provided in any Holdback Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding Section 6.17(a): (i) Acquiror shall not be required to (A) file the Resale Shelf (or any amendment thereto) or (B) if the Resale Shelf has been filed but not declared effective by the SEC, request effectiveness of such Resale Shelf for up to sixty (60) calendar days by providing written notice (a “Suspension Notice”) to the Securityholders’ Agent stating that Acquiror has determined in its reasonable good faith judgment that the filing of the Resale Shelf (or any amendment thereto) or the request for effectiveness of such Resale Shelf should be delayed (as applicable); provided that Acquiror may not invoke a delay or suspension pursuant to this Section 6.17(b)(i) for more than sixty (60) calendar days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period. The delay shall only continue for so long as the event that was the basis for such Suspension Notice or its effective is continuing. Acquiror shall not include any material non-public information in the Suspension Notice or otherwise provide such information to the Securityholders’ Agent unless specifically requested in writing (which disclosure shall nonetheless be in Acquiror’s discretion). (ii) No holder of Registrable Securities will be permitted to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Resale Shelf at any time that Acquiror Parent restricts trading in Acquiror Parent securities by its Affiliates and other designated employees subject to the trading windows under Acquiror Parent’s Insider Trading Policy, and Acquiror shall provide (or cause to be provided) notice to the holders of Registrable Securities of any suspension, and subsequent removal of such suspension, of permitted trading in Acquiror Parent’s securities.

88 (i) any failure of any of the representations and warranties given or made by the Company in this Agreement or in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(c), to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date (as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date), except in the case of representations and warranties which by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct on and as of such specified date or dates; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement; (iii) any amounts paid to Dissenting Stockholder in excess of the Per Share Consideration; (iv) any inaccuracies in the Payment Schedule to the extent such inaccuracies are not addressed in the calculations of Final Net Cash or Final Working Capital; (v) any Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness of the Company or any Company Subsidiary not reflected in the Estimated Closing Certificate to the extent such Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness are not addressed in the calculation of Final Net Cash; or (vi) the matters set forth on Schedule 9.1(a)(vi). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the purposes of determining the amount of Damages resulting from or arising out of a breach (but not whether a breach has occurred), all qualifications or exceptions in any representation or warranty relating to or referring to the terms “material”, “materiality”, “in all material respects”, “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded. (b) Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made by the Company herein and in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(c) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing and shall survive until the Escrow Termination Date; provided, however, that any claims for indemnification arising with respect to (i) the Company’s representations set forth in Sections 3.1 (Organization, Standing and Power), 3.2 (Subsidiaries) 3.3 (Authority), 3.6 (Capitalization), 3.21 (Taxes) and 3.26 (Brokers’ and Finders’ Fees) (the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive until the date that is five (5) years after the Closing Date or (ii) involving Fraud or Willful Breach shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. There shall be no termination of any representation or warranty as to which a claim has been asserted by Acquiror prior to the termination of the survival period as set forth herein. All covenants and agreements survive indefinitely unless otherwise specified in their terms. The date of expiration of a claim for indemnification under this Agreement is referred to as such claim’s “Expiration Date.” The parties acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Section 9.1 and elsewhere in this Agreement for the assertion of claims and notices under this Agreement are the result of arms’- length negotiation among the parties and that they intend for the time periods to be enforced as


 
89 agreed hereunder by the parties. The parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Section 9 and elsewhere in the Agreement may be shorter than otherwise provided by law. (c) Threshold for Claims. No claim for Damages shall be made under Section 9(a)(i) unless the aggregate of Damages exceeds $14,000,000 for which claims are made hereunder by the Acquiror Indemnified Persons (the “Threshold”), in which case the Acquiror Indemnified Person shall be entitled to seek compensation for all Damages, including the amount of the Threshold; provided, however, that the Threshold shall not apply with respect to any Damages resulting from or arising out of any claims for indemnification involving (i) the Fundamental Representations, Section 3.5(c) (Long Term Contract Liabilities), Fraud or Willful Breach, or (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, any matter described under Sections 9.1(a)(ii)-(a)(vii). (d) Cap on Indemnification by Effective Time Holders. (i) The aggregate amount to be paid by the Effective Time Holders for claims for Damages made under Section 9.1(a)(i) or Section 9.1(a)(vi) shall not exceed an amount equal to (A) the Escrow Amount, plus (B) (I) the sum of (x) the number of Acquiror Parent Shares that are issued, (y) the number of Indemnification Shares held back pursuant to Section 2.6(c)(ii)(B)(II) and (z) the number of Holdback Shares held back pursuant to Section 2.6(c)(ii)(B)(I), multiplied by (II) the Acquiror Per Share Price, multiplied by (III) ten percent (10%) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to any Damages arising from or related to any claims for indemnification involving the Fundamental Representations, Fraud or Willful Breach. (ii) In no event shall an Effective Time Holder be responsible for aggregate Damages under Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.7 in excess of such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Merger Consideration that is actually received by such Effective Time Holder, provided, however, that an Effective Time Holder shall be responsible for Damages, including those in excess of the Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion that are a result of such Effective Time Holder’s Fraud or Willful Breach. (e) Source of Recovery. (i) Subject to the other limitations in this Section 9, any Damages incurred by an Acquiror Indemnified Person that are determined to be subject to indemnification by the Effective Time Holders pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) or Section 9.1(a)(vi) (other than claims for indemnification involving the Fundamental Representations, Fraud or Willful Breach), shall be satisfied solely by (A) the funds in the Escrow Account, plus (B) the Indemnification Shares, plus (C) ten percent (10%) of any Acquiror Parent Shares that are issued after the Escrow Termination Date. (ii) Subject to the other limitations in this Section 9, any Damages incurred by an Acquiror Indemnified Person that are determined to be subject to indemnification by the Effective Time Holders pursuant to Sections 9.1(a)(ii) through 9.1(a)(v) shall be satisfied (A) first, from the Escrow Account, and (B) thereafter, from the Effective Time Holders, on a several basis, based on each Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion of such Damages.


 
90 (f) None of the Acquiror Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover from the Effective Time Holders any (i) punitive damages, or (ii) damages that are not reasonably foreseeable, in each case except to the extent such damages are awarded to a third party in a third-party claim. (g) Payments by the Effective Time Holders pursuant to this Section 9 in respect of any Damages shall be net of any insurance proceeds paid to an Acquiror Indemnified Person in respect of the applicable claim, less any related costs and expenses, including the aggregate cost of pursuing any related insurance claims and any related increases in insurance premiums or other chargebacks. (h) If and solely to the extent that an amount of Damages in connection with an indemnifiable matter was already taken into account in connection with the calculation of the Merger Consideration, the amount of such Damages as was already used to reduce the Merger Consideration may not be recovered again under this Section 9. No Acquiror Indemnified Person shall be entitled to double recovery for any indemnifiable Damages, even though such Damages may be indemnifiable under more than one provision of this Agreement. 9.2 Indemnification Claims. (a) To recover Damages under the indemnification obligations of the Effective Time Holders set forth in Section 9.1, an Acquiror Indemnified Person must deliver to the Securityholders’ Agent on or before the applicable Expiration Date a certificate signed by an officer of Acquiror (an “Officer’s Certificate”) stating that Damages exist with respect to the indemnification obligations of the Effective Time Holders set forth in Section 9.1, and specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Damages included in the amount so stated, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or claim to which such item is related. (b) The Securityholders’ Agent shall have a period of thirty (30) days from and after delivery of any Officer’s Certificate to deliver to Acquiror a response, in which the Securityholders’ Agent shall: (i) agree that Acquiror is entitled to receive all of the requested Damages (in which case the response shall be accompanied by written notice executed by the Securityholders’ Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse the requested Damages to Acquiror) or (ii) dispute that Acquiror is entitled to receive any or all of the requested Damages. (c) If the Securityholders’ Agent does not deliver a response before the expiration of the thirty (30) day period referred to in Section 9.2(b) disputing any claim or claims made in the Officer’s Certificate, Acquiror shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 9, be entitled to recover such Damages and, if the Escrow Account has not yet been released, receive from the Escrow Account a portion of such Escrow Account having a value equal to such Damages and such amount shall no longer be payable to the Effective Time Holders. (d) If the Securityholders’ Agent disputes any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate, Acquiror shall have thirty (30) days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Securityholders’ Agent. If after such thirty (30) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Securityholders’ Agent and Acquiror shall attempt in good faith for


 
91 thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Securityholders’ Agent and Acquiror should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Agent and shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum for the release of any Escrow Amount to Acquiror in accordance with the terms of such memorandum and the Escrow Agreement. 9.3 Resolution of Conflicts. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant to Section 9.2(d), either Acquiror or the Securityholders’ Agent may initiate formal legal action with the applicable court in accordance with Section 10.6 to resolve such dispute. The decision of the court as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Section 9 hereof, the parties and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision. 9.4 Securityholders’ Agent. (a) The Securityholders’ Agent shall be constituted and appointed as representative, agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of the Effective Time Holders as of the Closing for all purposes in connection with this Agreement and any agreement ancillary hereto and shall have full power and authority to represent, to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize the Escrow Agent to release any portion of the Escrow Amount to Acquiror in satisfaction of claims by Acquiror, to object to such deliveries, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, to act on the Effective Time Holders’ behalf with respect to the matters set forth herein, in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth herein, including giving and receiving all notices and communications to be given or received with respect to the matters set forth in Section 2.12 and Section 9 and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Securityholders’ Agent for the interpretation of this Agreement and accomplishment of the foregoing. Such agency may be changed by the holders of a majority in interest of the Escrow Amount from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Acquiror. The Securityholders’ Agent may resign at any time. No bond shall be required of the Securityholders’ Agent. Notices or communications to or from the Securityholders’ Agent shall constitute notice to or from each of the Effective Time Holders. (b) The Securityholders’ Agent will incur no liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Securityholders’ Agent in connection with the Securityholders’ Agent’s services pursuant to this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, except in the event of liability directly resulting from the Securityholders’ Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Securityholders’ Agent shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel. The Effective Time Holders severally (and not jointly) based on such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Securityholders’ Agent from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Securityholders’ Agent’s execution and performance of this Agreement and any agreements


 
92 ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Securityholders’ Agent, the Securityholders’ Agent will reimburse the Effective Time Holders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Securityholders’ Agent by the Effective Time Holders, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Securityholders’ Agent from (i) the funds in the Expense Fund and (ii) any other funds that become payable to the Effective Time Holders under this Agreement at such time as such amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Effective Time Holders; provided, that while this section allows the Securityholders’ Agent to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Effective Time Holders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Securityholders’ Agent from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Securityholders’ Agent be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Effective Time Holders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Effective Time Holders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Securityholders’ Agent under this section. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Securityholders’ Agent or the termination of this Agreement. (c) The Securityholders’ Agent shall have reasonable access to information about Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the reasonable assistance of Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ officers and employees for purposes of performing its duties and exercising its rights hereunder, provided that the Securityholders’ Agent shall treat confidentially and not disclose any nonpublic information from or about Company or any Company Subsidiary to anyone (except on a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat such information confidentially). (d) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholders’ Agent shall constitute a decision of all Effective Time Holders for whom the Merger Consideration otherwise payable to them is released to Acquiror from the Escrow Account with respect to the matters set forth herein and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each Effective Time Holder, and Acquiror may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholders’ Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every Effective Time Holder. Acquiror is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholders’ Agent. 9.5 Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquiror becomes aware of a third-party claim which Acquiror believes may result in an indemnification claim under Section 9, Acquiror shall notify the Securityholders’ Agent of such claim within thirty (30) days of an executive officer of Acquiror becoming aware of such claim; provided that any failure to timely deliver such notice shall not affect an Acquiror Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, except to the extent that the Effective Time Holders’ rights are materially prejudiced by such failure. The Securityholders’ Agent shall be entitled, at the expense of the Effective Time Holders, to confer with Acquiror on the conduct of the defense of such third-party claim, but shall not determine or conduct the defense


 
93 of such claim or Legal Proceeding. Acquiror shall keep the Securityholders’ Agent reasonably apprised of material developments in such claim or Legal Proceeding, and promptly provide to the Securityholders’ Agent copies of all pleadings, response pleadings, motions and other similar legal documents and papers filed in connection with such claim or Legal Proceeding, in each case to the extent that receipt of such documents does not waive any privilege. Acquiror shall have the right in its sole discretion to defend any such claim. Acquiror shall also have the right in its sole discretion to settle any such claim; provided that (i) any such settlement effected without the Securityholders’ written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall not be determinative as to whether any Damages with respect to such claim are indemnifiable and (ii) in the event that the amount of Damages with respect to such claim, together with the amount of any asserted Damages with respect to any concurrent claims or previously settled claim exceeds the amount of the Threshold, then Acquiror shall not settle such claim without the written consent of the Securityholders’ Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that the Securityholders’ Agent has consented to any such settlement, the Securityholders’ Agent shall have no power or authority to object under Section 9.2 or any other provision of this Section 9 to the amount of any claim by Acquiror against the Escrow Account for indemnity with respect to such settlement. 9.6 Tax Effect of Indemnification Payments. All amounts received by Acquiror from the Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the aggregate Merger Consideration. 9.7 Tax Indemnification. In addition to the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 9.1 above, the Effective Time Holders shall, based on the each Effective Time Holders Pro Rata Portion, severally, and not jointly, indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Persons from and against any Damages without duplication resulting from or arising out of (a) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of Company or any Company Subsidiary for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any Straddle Period (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”), (b) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Company or any Company Subsidiary (or any predecessor of Company or any Company Subsidiary) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation §1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or non-U.S. law or regulation, (c) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on Company or any Company Subsidiary as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any Applicable Law, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing; and (d) any Tax imposed under Section 965 of the Code; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a), (b), and (c) above, the Effective Time Holders shall be liable only to the extent that such Taxes exceed the amount, if any, reserved for such Taxes on the Closing Balance Sheet. The Effective Time Holders shall reimburse Acquiror for any Taxes that are the responsibility of the Effective Time Holders within fifteen (15) Business Days after payment of such Taxes by Acquiror or the Company. The Threshold and the Cap shall not apply with respect to any Damages arising from the matters set forth in this Section 9.7; provided, in no event shall an Effective Time Holder be responsible for aggregate Damages under this Section 9.7 and Section 9.1(a) in excess of such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Merger Consideration; provided, however, that an Effective Time Holder shall be responsible for any and all Damages that are a result of such Effective Time Holder’s Fraud or Willful Breach. To the extent that any Damages claimed in an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section 9.7 overlaps with a claim for Damages pursuant to


 
94 Section 9.2, the provisions set forth in this Section 9.7 and the provisions applicable to this Section 9.7 shall govern and control. 9.8 Effect of Investigation. The right to indemnification, payment of Damages or for other remedies based on any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Company, any Company Subsidiary or Effective Time Holders contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the date the Closing occurs, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition to the obligation of Acquiror to consummate the Merger, where such condition is based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, shall not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Damages, or other remedy based on such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. 9.9 Exclusive Remedy. Acquiror acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for money damages from and after the Closing for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein (including as to this Agreement’s existence, enforceability, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or damages, including claims in tort and Damages due to Fraud) as well as other provisions of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 9 (it being understood that nothing in this Section 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall affect the Acquiror Indemnified Persons to specific performance or other equitable remedies to enforce their rights under this Agreement or any other instrument executed in connection herewith). 9.10 No Contribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Effective Time Holder may make any claim for indemnification by reason of the fact that such Effective Time Holder was a controlling person, director, officer, member, manager, employee or representative of the Company or was serving as such for another Person at the request of the Company (whether such claim is for Damages of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to the Company’s Organizational Documents or any Applicable Law, Order, Contract or otherwise) with respect to any claim for indemnification brought by an Acquiror Indemnified Person against the Effective Time Holders under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or that is based upon any facts or circumstances that form the basis for a claim for indemnification by an Acquiror Indemnified Person. 10.

This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including the exhibits and schedules hereto, including the Company Disclosure Schedule: (a) together constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which except as set forth in Section 6.4 shall continue in full force and effect, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the Closing, in accordance with its terms; and (b) except as expressly provided herein, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder and shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the written consent of the other party. 10.4 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision. 10.5 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. 10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of Delaware applicable to parties residing in Delaware, without regard applicable principles of conflicts of law. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any court located within San Diego County, California, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated hereby and it agrees that process may be served upon it in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which


 
97 it might otherwise have to such jurisdiction and such process. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER AT LAW, IN CONTRACT, IN TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. 10.7 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document. 10.8 Specific Enforcement. The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and there would be no adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. Accordingly, the parties agree that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which a party is entitled at law or in equity. 10.9 Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment or waiver of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement must be in writing and must be duly executed by or on behalf of the party to be charged with such waiver. The failure of a party to exercise any of its rights hereunder or to insist upon strict adherence to any term or condition hereof on any one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to the terms and conditions of this Agreement at a later date. Further, no waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of any other term of condition hereof (whether or not similar). 10.10 Waiver of Conflict; Treatment of Company Confidential Information. (a) The parties acknowledge and agree that subsequent to the Closing, the Securityholders’ Agent and/or any Effective Time Holder (collectively, the “Former Holders” or individually, the “Former Holder”) shall have the right to retain Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP (“Pillsbury”) to represent any Former Holder’s interest(s) in any dispute relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Merger (collectively, the “Merger Dispute”). The Surviving Corporation, Acquiror and each of their subsidiaries (collectively, the “Buyers” or individually, the “Buyer”) hereby irrevocably waive, consent to and covenant not to assert any objection, nor seek to have Pillsbury disqualified from any such representation based upon the prior representation of the Company by Pillsbury, based on conflict of interest or otherwise, to any representation of any Former Holder by Pillsbury in any Merger Dispute. Each Buyer acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in connection herewith. Each Buyer further agrees that, as to all pre-Closing privileged materials relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Privileged Deal Materials”), the attorney-client privilege and the exception of client confidence belongs to the Securityholders’ Agent and shall not pass to or be claimed by any Buyer on any ground, including waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that Privileged Deal Materials do not include


 
98 communications that constitute evidence of Fraud by the Former Holders or the Company. Except as to the Privileged Deal Materials, any other pre-Closing privileged communications maintained by the Company shall be the sole property of the Surviving Corporation (“Acquiror Materials”). In addition, in the event that a dispute arises between Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation and a Person other than a Former Holder, Acquiror may assert the attorney-client privilege with respect to any Privileged Deal Material to prevent disclosure to such third-party of such Privileged Deal Material, and Acquiror may not waive such privilege without providing no fewer than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Securityholders’ Agent. (b) Prior to Closing, the Company shall make good-faith and reasonable efforts to remove all Privileged Deal Materials (but not any Acquiror Materials) from the Company’s records (including electronic files on the Company’s email server). If any Privileged Deal Materials are left at the Company or the removal of certain materials prior to Closing is not reasonable (e.g., the materials exist in archived locations, are not centrally stored, exist on portable media), such remaining materials shall in no way prejudice or otherwise constitute a waiver of, or estoppel as to, any claim of attorney-client privilege, work product or other applicable privilege or immunity by the Former Holders including the Securityholders’ Agent. To the extent any Acquiror Materials are discovered post-Closing by the Securityholders’ Agent, the Securityholders’ Agent shall not review the materials further (after identifying what they are), shall promptly deliver such materials to Acquiror and shall permanently delete all copies of such identified materials from the Securityholders’ Agent’s records (including electronic files on the Company’s email server to the extent practicable). (c) This Section 10.10 is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, Pillsbury. This Section 10.10 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 10.10 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of Pillsbury. 10.11 Interpretation. (a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections or Exhibits, such reference shall be to a Section of, or an Exhibit to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. (b) The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. (c) The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” (d) The phrases “delivered,” “provided to,” “made available” and “furnished to” and phrases of similar import when used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, means, with respect to any statement in Section 3 of this Agreement to the effect that any information, document or other material has been “delivered,” “provided to” or “furnished” to Acquiror or its Representatives, that such information, document, or material was made available for review (without subsequent modification by the Company) by Acquiror or its representatives in the virtual data room set up by the Company in connection with this Agreement at least forty- eight (48) hours prior to the date hereof.


 
99 (e) Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (i) words of any gender include each other gender; (ii) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; and (iii) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement.
