SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT dated as of September 3, 2013 (herein, together with the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto, referred to as this “Agreement”) among (i) Sunrise International Ltd., a Barbados company (the “Company”), (ii) the shareholders of the Company, all of whom are listed on the signature pages of this Agreement (the “Selling Shareholders”), (iii) Amber Road, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Parent”), (iv) Amber Road Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”) and (v) Lawrence C. Longo and Scott Matthews, acting in each case solely in his capacity as a member of the Shareholder Representative Committee referred to herein. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined throughout this Agreement or are defined or otherwise referenced in Section 8.1 of this Agreement.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Selling Shareholders own all of the issued and outstanding Class A and Class B common shares and preferred shares of the Company (collectively, the “Shares”), constituting all of the outstanding shares of the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Selling Shareholders wish to sell, and the Buyer wishes to purchase, the Shares upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in reliance upon the representations and warranties made herein and in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged), the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

SALE AND PURCHASE OF SHARES

Section 1.1 Sale of Shares. On the Closing Date and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Selling Shareholders will sell, assign and transfer to the Buyer, and the Buyer will purchase and acquire, all of the Selling Shareholders’ right, title and interest in and to the Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than such Encumbrances as may be created by or on behalf of the Buyer.

Section 1.2 Purchase Price and Payment for Shares.

(a) Purchase Price. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for all of the Shares is (1) $2,000,004 in cash (the “Gross Cash Closing Amount”), (2) 296,296 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Closing Shares”) and (3) 296,296 shares of Parent Common Stock issued with the restrictions set forth in Section 1.2(c) (the “Contingent Shares”), all subject to adjustment as provided herein. Parent will pay or issue, as applicable, at Closing (i) $ $1,433,640.00 (the Gross Cash Closing Amount reduced by the sum of: (x) the Escrow Deposit, (y) the Transaction Expenses Amount and (z) the Committee Reimbursement Amount) to the


Shareholder Representative Committee (the “Closing Payment”) on behalf of the Selling Shareholders in the amounts set forth on Schedule 1.2 hereto, (ii) $200,000 to Citibank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Deposit”) under the terms of the Escrow Agreement to be executed by the Shareholder Representative Committee, Parent and the Escrow Agent at the Closing substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”); (iii) $35,000 to the Shareholder Representative Committee to be held by the Shareholder Representative Committee for the payment of expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative Committee in performing its duties pursuant to this Agreement (the “Committee Reimbursement Amount”), (iv) the Transaction Expenses Amount to the recipients set forth on Schedule 6.1 attached hereto, (v) stock certificates in the name of each Selling Shareholder for a number of Closing Shares to be issued to each such Selling Shareholder as set forth on Schedule 1.2 hereto (the “Escrow Closing Shares”) to be delivered to and held by the secretary of the Parent in accordance with Section 7.1(a) and shall make a cash payment to the Shareholder Representative Committee for disbursement to the Selling Shareholders in lieu of any fractional shares, and (vi) stock certificates in the name of each Selling Shareholder for the remaining number of Closing Shares to be issued to each such Selling Shareholder as set forth on Schedule 1.2 hereto (the “Remaining Closing Shares”) to be delivered to the Shareholder Representative Committee for further delivery to the Selling Shareholders together with a cash payment for disbursement to the Selling Shareholders in lieu of any fractional shares.

(b) Payment of Purchase Price. At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to (i) the Shareholder Representative Committee, the Closing Payment in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account set forth on Schedule 1.2(b)(i) attached hereto, (ii) the recipients set forth on Schedule 6.1 attached hereto, the Transaction Expenses Amount in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the accounts set forth on Schedule 6.1 attached hereto, (iii) the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Deposit in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account designated in the Escrow Agreement, (iv) the Shareholder Representative Committee, the Committee Reimbursement Amount in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the Shareholder Representative Committee, (v) the Secretary of Parent (to be held pursuant to Section 7.1(a)), the stock certificates representing the Escrow Closing Shares (provided each certificate is accompanied by a Stock Power duly executed by a Selling Shareholder to which such certificate shall be issued) and (vi) the Shareholder Representative Committee, copies of the stock certificates representing the Remaining Closing Shares. No later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the receipt by Parent of a written request from the Shareholder Representative Committee that stock certificates representing the Contingent Shares be prepared and issued (the “Stock Certificate Request”), the Buyer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to (i) the Secretary of Parent (to be held pursuant to Section 1.2(c)), the stock certificates representing the Contingent Shares as set forth in such Stock Certificate Request with respect to each such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder and (ii) the Shareholder Representative Committee, for disbursement to the Selling Shareholders and Option Holders, the cash payment payable in lieu of fractional shares; provided, however, that such delivery and payment shall be subject with respect to each Selling Shareholder, the receipt by Parent of a Stock Assignment Separate From Certificate in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto (a “Stock Power”) duly executed by the Selling Shareholder to whom such certificate shall be issued and with respect to each Option

 

2


Holder, the receipt by Parent of a Stock Power and Option Waiver and Release, each duly executed by the Option Holder to whom such certificate shall be issued. Assuming that, following any adjustment to the Purchase Price effected pursuant to Section 1.2(g) below, the full amount of the Escrow Deposit is distributed to the Shareholder Representative Committee for disbursement to the Selling Shareholders, the number of Contingent Shares issuable to each Selling Shareholder and Option Holder is as set forth on Schedule 1.2(b)(ii). The allocation of Contingent Shares set forth in the Stock Certificate Request shall be prepared consistent with the allocations set forth on such schedule, as adjusted as necessary in the event that less than the full amount of the Escrow Deposit is distributed to the Selling Shareholders.

(c) Contingent Consideration. Parent is hereby granted the right (the “Repurchase Right”), exercisable at any time following: (a) with respect to the Straight-Line Contingent Shares (as defined below), any termination of the employment of Kae-por F. Chang (“Chang”) with Parent or its affiliates or any successor entity either (i) for Cause or (ii) by Chang other than for Good Reason, and (b) with respect to the Conditional Contingent Shares (as defined below), the failure of the Subsidiary to attain the CTM Revenue targets as provided herein, in each case to repurchase at the Repurchase Price the Contingent Shares in which each Selling Shareholder and each holder of a Company Share Option immediately prior to the Closing (each an “Option Holder” and collectively, the “Option Holders”) have not acquired a vested interest in accordance with the vesting provisions of this Section 1.2(c) (such shares to be hereinafter called the “Unvested Shares”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the Repurchase Right shall not become effective with respect to the Straight-Line Contingent Shares until a termination of the employment of Chang by Parent or its affiliates for Cause or by Chang other than for Good Reason, (y) the Repurchase Right shall not become effective with respect to the Conditional Contingent Shares until January 1, 2016 and (z) the Repurchase Right shall terminate, and cease to be exercisable, with respect to any and all Contingent Shares in which the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.2(c), including the schedules described below. Accordingly, provided Chang continues to be employed by Parent or its affiliate or any successor entity, the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, thirty three percent (33%) of the Contingent Shares (the “Straight-Line Contingent Shares”), over a period commencing from the date of this Agreement and ending December 31, 2015, in a series of successive equal semi-annual installments of 20% of the Straight Line Contingent Shares at 12:01 a.m. EST on each six month anniversary of the date of this Agreement, with the final installment vesting on December 31, 2015. In addition, the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, sixty seven percent (67%) of the Contingent Shares (the “Conditional Contingent Shares”), as follows:

(i) If the 2014 CTM Revenue shall equal or exceed $2,500,000, the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, 59,555 Conditional Contingent Shares.

 

3


(ii) If the 2015 CTM Revenue shall equal or exceed $3,500,000, the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, 138,963 Conditional Contingent Shares.

(iii) If the 2014 CTM Revenue did not equal or exceed $2,500,000 or the 2015 CTM Revenue did not equal or exceed $3,500,000 and the 2013 CTM Revenue, 2014 CTM Revenue and 2015 CTM Revenue in the aggregate shall equal or exceed $7,700,000, then in such event the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, all of the Conditional Contingent Shares to the extent not previously vested.

In the event of any termination of employment of Chang with Parent or its affiliates or any successor entity either (i) by the Parent and its affiliates without Cause, (ii) by Chang for Good Reason or (iii) by the death or Disability of Chang prior to the date that the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall have become fully vested with respect to all of the Straight-Line Contingent Shares in accordance with this Section 1.2(c), then in such event the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, all of the Straight-Line Contingent Shares to the extent not previously vested. In the event of any termination of employment of Chang with Parent or its affiliates or any successor entity either (i) by the Parent and its affiliates for Cause or (ii) by Chang without Good Reason prior to the date that the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall have become fully vested with respect to all of the Straight-Line Contingent Shares in accordance with this Section 1.2(c), then, in addition to the number of Straight-Line Contingent Shares, if any, in which the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall have previously acquired a vested interest pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.2(c), the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall acquire a vested interest in, and the Repurchase Right shall lapse with respect to, the number of Straight-Line Contingent Shares that would have vested as of the end of the then current semi-annual period had Chang remained in employment with the Parent, its affiliates or any successor entity through the end of such semi-annual period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during such semi-annual period that Chang was employed by the Parent, an affiliate or any successor entity and the denominator of which is 182 and Parent’s Repurchase Right shall become effective immediately with respect to all Straight-Line Contingent Shares that remain Unvested Shares thereafter. No fractional shares shall be repurchased by Parent. Accordingly, should the Repurchase Right extend to a fractional share (in accordance with the vesting computation provisions of this Section 1.2(c)) at the time that Parent’s Repurchase Right becomes effective, then such fractional share shall be added to any fractional share in which the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders are at such time vested in order to make one whole vested share no longer subject to the Repurchase Right. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2(b), the certificates for the Contingent Shares shall be deposited in escrow with the Secretary of Parent to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.2. Each deposited certificate shall be accompanied by a Stock Power duly executed by the Selling Shareholder or Option Holder to whom such certificate shall be issued. The deposited certificates, together with any other assets or securities from time to time deposited with Parent pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, shall remain in escrow until such time or times as the

 

4


certificates (or other assets and securities) are to be released or otherwise surrendered for cancellation in accordance with this Section 1.2, with it being understood (x) that each Selling Shareholder and Option Holder shall have the right to request and require from time to time after such certificates have been deposited with the Secretary of Parent pursuant to Section 1.2(b) that Parent prepare, issue and deliver to such Selling Shareholder and/or Option Holder, as the case may be, a separate stock certificate (each, a “Vested Share Certificate”) for any shares in which such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder shall have acquired a vested interest pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.2(c) (“Vested Shares”) and (y) that, to facilitate, and in response to, any such request received in writing by Parent from a Selling Shareholder or Option Holder (a “Distribution Request”), any escrowed certificate issued in the name of such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder, as the case may be, representing any Vested Shares shall be delivered to and cancelled by Parent and, in lieu thereof, Parent shall prepare and issue, within thirty (30) days of Parent’s receipt of a Distribution Request, the Vested Share Certificate to be distributed by Parent to such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder as well as a new stock certificate issued in the name of such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder to be held in escrow by the Secretary of Parent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.2(c) with respect to any remaining Unvested Shares previously issued to such Selling Shareholder and Option Holder. Should the Parent elect to exercise the Repurchase Right under this Section 1.2 with respect to any Unvested Shares, then the escrowed certificates for such Unvested Shares (together with any other assets or securities issued with respect thereto) shall be delivered to Parent for cancellation, concurrently with the payment to Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders, in cash or cash equivalent, of an amount equal to the aggregate Repurchase Price for such Unvested Shares, and the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall cease to have any further rights or claims with respect to such Unvested Shares (or other assets or securities). Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Chang any right to continue in the service of Parent (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of Parent employing or retaining Chang) for any period of time or interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of Parent employing or retaining Chang) or Chang, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the employee status of Chang at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Contingent Shares” shall mean the shares acquired pursuant to Section 1.2(a) plus any new, substituted or additional securities distributed with respect to the Contingent Shares without consideration in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, recapitalization or other change affecting Parent Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration. Each Selling Shareholder and Option Holder shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the Contingent Shares that are subject to Parent’s Repurchase Right under this Section 1.2. In addition to any other legends required pursuant to agreement or applicable state and federal securities laws, in order to reflect the restrictions on disposition of the Contingent Shares provided for hereunder, the stock certificates for the Unvested Shares will be endorsed with a restrictive legend substantially as follows:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, ENCUMBERED OR IN ANY MANNER DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT AMONG THE CORPORATION, THE REGISTERED HOLDER OF THE SHARES AND

 

5


OTHER PARTIES THERETO. SUCH AGREEMENT GRANTS CERTAIN REPURCHASE RIGHTS TO THE CORPORATION. THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION WILL UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FURNISH A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE.”

(d) Earnout. In addition to the Purchase Price, in the event the Subsidiary’s CTM Revenue for the three-year period ending on December 31, 2015 exceeds $7,700,000, then Buyer and/or Parent shall pay a performance bonus to the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the CTM Revenue in excess of $7,700,000 for the three-year period ending on December 31, 2015 (the “Performance Bonus” and collectively with the Purchase Price, the “Total Deal Consideration”). As an example, should the CTM Revenue be $2,000,000 for 2013, $2,900,000 for 2014 and $4,000,000 for 2015, which totals $8,900,000, then the Performance Bonus shall be $600,000. The Performance Bonus shall be capped at $2,500,000 and Parent shall have the option of paying the Performance Bonus in cash or shares of Parent Common Stock (valuing the Parent Common Stock at Fair Market Value as of the date the Performance Bonus is paid (subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, combinations and the like)). The Performance Bonus (if earned in accordance with this clause (d)) shall be payable no later than March 15, 2016 (subject to delay, if any, upon the exercise of audit rights pursuant to Section 1.2(e) below, and in the case of each Option Holder also subject to Parent having received an Option Waiver and Release duly executed by such Option Holder. The parties hereto agree to the earn-out protections set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto. The portion of the Performance Bonus, if any, to be received by each Selling Shareholder and each Option Holder shall be set forth in a written notice delivered to Parent from the Shareholder Representative Committee no later than March 1, 2016 and shall reflect amounts necessary, to the extent practicable, to equalize among all Selling Shareholders and Option Holders the impact of any indemnification claims under Section 7.1 to date (the “Performance Bonus Notice”). Each of Parent and Buyer shall be entitled to rely on the Performance Bonus Notice in effecting any distribution of the Performance Bonus. Neither Parent nor Buyer shall be liable for any misallocation of the Performance Bonus among the Selling Shareholders and Option Holders resulting from said equalization effected pursuant to the terms of the Performance Bonus Notice.

(e) Audit Rights. Parent and Buyer hereby grant, and shall cause any of their respective Affiliates involved in activities producing CTM Revenue for the Subsidiary (collectively with Parent, Buyer and the Subsidiary following the Closing, the “Buyer Group”) to grant, to the Shareholder Representative Committee the right (once per calendar year during each of 2014, 2015 and 2016) to examine and have reasonable access during normal business hours to all books of account and records specifically pertaining to CTM Revenue (subject to applicable law) for calendar years 2013, 2014 and 2015 (each, a “Contingent Payment Year”) at the location of such records on prior written notice of at least thirty (30) days, for the purpose of verifying the amount of CTM Revenue for such year (each such review shall be referred to herein as a “Contingent Payment Audit”). For the purpose of conducting a Contingent Payment Audit, the Shareholder Representative Committee may hire, at its expense, one or more auditors or attorneys of the Shareholder Representative Committee’s choosing to assist in such examination, provided, that such auditors or attorneys have entered into customary

 

6


confidentiality agreements with Parent in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent. The Shareholder Representative Committee and such representatives shall have reasonable access to all of the books and records required to perform any Contingent Payment Audit for a thirty (30) day period, beginning on the date on which access to substantially all of such books and records is first given to the Shareholder Representative Committee. In no case shall any member of the Buyer Group dispose of any books of account or records specifically pertaining to CTM Revenue with respect to any Contingent Payment Year earlier than the date one hundred and eighty (180) days following the last day of the subsequent Contingent Payment Year or, if such Contingent Payment Year is the last Contingent Payment Year, the last day of such Contingent Payment Year. Parent shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative Committee, by no later than forty five (45) days following the end of each Contingent Payment Year, a certificate describing the amount of CTM Revenue, if any, received during such Contingent Payment Year (each a “Contingent Payment Certificate”). In the event that the Shareholder Representative Committee does not agree with the amount of CTM Revenue set forth on any Contingent Payment Certificate, the Shareholder Representative Committee shall be entitled, during the period commencing on the date of delivery of such Contingent Payment Certificate and ending on the sixty fifth (65th) day after delivery of such Contingent Payment Certificate (the “Dispute Period”), to give Parent written notice (a “Dispute Notice”), of such disagreement. In the event that the Shareholder Representative Committee does not deliver a Dispute Notice during the Dispute Period, the CTM Revenue amount set forth on such Contingent Payment Certificate shall irrevocably be deemed to be the final CTM Revenue amount for such Contingent Payment Year and all purposes of this Agreement, absent fraud or intentional misconduct. In the event that the Shareholder Representative Committee delivers a Dispute Notice within the Dispute Period, the Shareholder Representative Committee, Parent and Buyer shall for a period of not less than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice attempt in good faith to resolve the CTM Revenue amount that is in dispute (the “Disputed Revenue Amount”), and mutually determine any adjustments to such CTM Revenue amount (the “Agreed Revenue Amount”). Parent, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative Committee shall, subject to the execution of a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the delivering party, provide each other with such information, records and material kept in the ordinary course of business in such party’s possession and which such party may disclose without violating confidentiality obligations to third parties, as is reasonably necessary and appropriate in attempting to resolve such Disputed Revenue Amount, including the delivery of a copy to the Shareholder Representative Committee of any such information, records and material, to the extent then available, that was used to calculate the amount of CTM Revenue set forth on the relevant Contingent Payment Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, if the final Agreed Revenue Amount determined pursuant to this Section 1.2(e) is greater than the CTM Revenue amount set forth on the relevant Contingent Payment Certificate by an amount equal to more than ten percent (10%) of the CTM Revenue amount set forth in the relevant Contingent Payment Certificate, Parent shall pay all of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by the Shareholder Representative Committee in connection with such Contingent Payment Audit. If Parent, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative Committee cannot resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Dispute Notice, such dispute shall be promptly referred to and resolved by an Independent Accounting Firm. The determination of such Independent Accounting Firm shall be made as promptly as

 

7


practicable and shall be final and binding on Parent, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative Committee. In the event of a dispute, the Disputed Revenue Amount, as modified by resolution by Parent, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative Committee, or by the Independent Accounting Firm, as applicable, shall be the “Agreed Revenue Amount.” The Selling Shareholders hereby agree not to trade any securities of Parent (or its successor) based on information furnished by this Section which is not otherwise publicly available.

(f) Adjustments to Purchase Price. If, between the date of this Agreement and the date of payment of any portion of the Purchase Price payable pursuant to this Section 1.2, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock shall be changed into a different number of shares by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization or exchange of shares or if a stock split, combination, stock dividend, stock rights or extraordinary dividend thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock payable to the Selling Shareholders, shall be correspondingly adjusted.

(g) Purchase Price Adjustment. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing, Buyer or Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Shareholder Representative Committee a statement (the “Statement”) setting forth the Net Working Capital as of the Closing derived from financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof. The Shareholder Representative Committee shall have fifteen (15) calendar days following receipt of the Statement during which to dispute in writing any item contained in the Statement. Written notice of any such dispute shall set forth in reasonable detail the items disputed, the basis for such dispute and the Shareholder Representative Committee’s proposed adjustment to such items. If the Shareholder Representative Committee fails to notify Buyer or Parent in writing of any such dispute within such 15-day period, the Statement shall be the “Final Statement.” If Buyer or Parent timely notifies Seller in writing of any such dispute, then the Shareholder Representative Committee and Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute in a mutually acceptable manner. If Parent and the Shareholder Representative Committee cannot resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Shareholder Representative Committee of such notice of dispute, such dispute shall be promptly referred to and resolved by a U.S. nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually selected by Parent and the Shareholder Representative Committee (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The determination of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be made as promptly as practicable and shall be final and binding on Parent and the Shareholder Representative Committee. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm incurred in resolving the disputed matter shall be equitably apportioned by the Independent Accounting Firm based on the extent to which Parent, on the one hand, or the Shareholder Representative Committee, on the other hand, is determined by the Independent Accounting Firm to be the prevailing party in the resolution of the disputed matters. In the event of a dispute, the Statement, as modified by resolution by Parent and the Shareholder Representative Committee, or by the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be the “Final Statement.” If the Net Working Capital, as set forth in the Final Statement, is less than the Net Working Capital Target, Parent shall be entitled to withdraw from the Escrow Account (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) in accordance with the Escrow Agreement an amount equal to such difference in cash no later than ten (10) Business Days from the date of

 

8


such Final Statement. If the Net Working Capital, as set forth in the Final Statement, is greater than the Net Working Capital Target, then Parent and/or Buyer shall pay such excess to the Shareholder Representative Committee by wire transfer of immediately available funds, not later than ten (10) Business Days from the date of such Final Statement. For tax purposes, any payment by the Buyer or Parent, on the one hand, or the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders, on the other hand, under this Section 1.2(g) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(h) Amount of Payment. On the dates set forth in this Section 1.2, Parent shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative Committee (i) cash or (ii) certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock required to be delivered pursuant to the applicable section, in each case calculated on a pro rata basis based on the number of Class B Common Shares, Preferred Shares or Class B Common Shares issuable upon exercise of Company Share Options set forth opposite the name of each Selling Shareholder and each Option Holder in Schedule 1.2(h) attached hereto. The Shareholder Representative Committee shall deliver such cash and certificates to the Selling Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Shareholders Agreement.

(i) Tax Withholding. Parent and Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the cash and/or shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise required to be paid or delivered to any Selling Shareholder or to any Option Holder (or to the Shareholder Representative Committee on behalf of any such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder) pursuant to this Section 1.2 such amounts as Parent, Buyer, the Company or any Affiliate thereof may be required deduct and withhold under applicable provisions of any federal, state, local or foreign Tax laws. To the extent that any shares of Parent Common Stock are required to be deducted to satisfy such applicable Tax withholding requirements, the Parent shall deduct one share of Parent Common Stock for each $6.75 that the Parent, Buyer, Company or any Affiliate thereof is required to withhold. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to such Selling Shareholder or Option Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Parent and Buyer hereby affirm that, to the extent any Selling Shareholder is a United States citizen and not an employee of the Company or the Subsidiary, no Tax withholding will be effected by Parent or Buyer with respect to any portion of the Closing Payment or any Closing Shares to be received by such Selling Shareholder.

The Company and the Selling Shareholders agree that effective as of Closing, the following agreements are terminated: (i) the Shareholders Agreement, dated February 12, 2007, by and among the Company and each person and entity signatory thereto (the “Shareholders Agreement”), and (ii) any other agreement among the Company and its shareholders other than this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (together with the Shareholders Agreement, the “Shareholders Arrangements”). Effective as of Closing, the Selling Shareholders waive any claims and rights pursuant to the Shareholders Arrangements by reason of, in connection with or resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and unconditionally and irrevocably agree to accept in lieu thereof payment of their respective portions of the Purchase Price according to the allocations set out herein, which payments shall be distributed by the Shareholder Representative Committee in like manner as contained in the Shareholders Agreement. Effective as of Closing, the Selling Shareholders and the Company acknowledge and agree (x) that having regard to sections 51 and 52 of the

 

41


Companies Act, Cap.308 of the laws of Barbados, the Company cannot pay the dividend contemplated by section 3A.(i)(b)(i) of the Articles of Amendment of the Company and the Shareholders Agreement and the Selling Shareholders unconditionally and irrevocably waive their entitlement thereunder, if any, (y) having regard to the accounts of the Company as presented, no distribution of the remaining property of the Company can be made to any Selling Shareholder pursuant to sections 3A.(i)(b)(ii), 3A.(ii)(c) and 3A.(iii)(c) of the Articles of Amendment of the Company or the Shareholders Agreement, and the Selling Shareholders unconditionally and irrevocably waive their entitlements thereunder, if any, and (z) waive any and all rights of first refusal to purchase shares of the Company sold by the Selling Shareholders to the Buyer hereunder.

Section 6.5 Share Repurchase Option. On or after September 3, 2014, the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall have the option upon written notice to Parent to put to Parent the Closing Shares and the Contingent Shares that have vested owned by such Selling Shareholders and Option Holders, in whole or in part, at a price of $6.75 per share (subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, combinations and the like) in the event Parent fails to consummate an underwritten initial public offering of shares of Parent Common Stock (the “IPO”) prior to the first anniversary of the Closing (the “Share Purchase Option”); provided, that the Share Purchase Option shall expire on the earlier of (i) March 1, 2016 and (ii) the closing of the IPO. Parent, on the one hand, and Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders, on the other hand, shall have ninety (90) days from the receipt by Parent of such written notice from the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders to close on the share sale and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to close within such time period.

Section 6.6 Registration Rights. The Selling Shareholders agree to execute a lock-up agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Lock-up Agreement”). The Lock-up Agreement will restrict the transfer or sale of shares of Parent Common Stock from the time of the Closing until six months following Parent’s initial public offering and will be no more restrictive than any other lock-up entered into in connection with the IPO. The Selling Shareholders will also be afforded piggyback registration rights in connection with the public offering of Parent’s securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration) and Parent shall, at such time, promptly (but in any event no less than thirty (30) days prior to the initial filing of any registration statement in connection with such offering) give the Shareholder Representative Committee notice of such registration. Upon the request of the Shareholder Representative Committee given within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice from Parent, Parent shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.6, cause to be registered all of the Shares that the Shareholder Representative Committee has requested to be included in such registration. Parent shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 6.6 before the effective date of such registration statement, whether or not any Selling Shareholder has elected to include Shares in such registration. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of Parent Common Stock, the underwriters will be selected by Parent, and Parent shall not be required to include any of the Selling Shareholders’ Shares in such underwriting unless the Selling Shareholders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between Parent and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine

 

42


will not jeopardize the success of the offering by Parent. All Selling Shareholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. If the total number of securities, including Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by Parent) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then Parent shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Shares, which the underwriters and Parent in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. With a view to making available to the Selling Shareholders the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a holder to sell securities of Parent to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor form), Parent shall make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the IPO; and (b) use all reasonable efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Parent under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, at any time after Parent has become subject to such reporting requirements.

Section 6.7 Original Signatures. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, each Selling Shareholder shall deliver to the Parent, or cause the Company’s attorney to deliver to the Parent, originals of the signature pages to this Agreement and to any documents contemplated by the terms of this Agreement and executed by such Selling Shareholder in connection with the Closing (including, without limitation Stock Powers). Within nine (9) days following the Closing, Parent shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative Committee originals of the stock certificates representing the Remaining Closing Shares.

Section 6.8 Stock Powers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all Stock Powers held by Parent shall only be effective and used by Parent with respect to those shares of Parent Common Stock as to which Parent is entitled to become the record and beneficial owner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, stock certificates for all Escrow Closing Shares, if any, as to which the Buyer or Parent did not exercise such right of setoff, shall be delivered by the Secretary of Parent to the Shareholder Representative Committee for further delivery to the Selling Shareholders. Neither the exercise nor the failure to exercise such right of setoff will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer or Parent in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it. Upon issuance at Closing, the certificates for the Escrow Closing Shares shall be deposited in escrow with the Secretary of Parent to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.1(a). Each deposited certificate shall be accompanied by a duly executed Stock Power in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto. The deposited certificates, together with any other assets or securities from time to time deposited with Parent pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, shall remain in escrow until such time or times as the certificates (or other assets and securities) are to be released or otherwise surrendered for cancellation in accordance with this Section 7.1(a).

(b) Indemnification by the Selling Shareholders. Subject to the limits set forth in this Section 7.1, from and after the Closing, each Selling Shareholder, agrees, severally and not jointly and in accordance with their respective indemnity percentages set forth on Schedule 7.1 hereto (such that (absent fraud) the liability of each Selling Shareholder pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) shall not exceed, in any given case, the product of such Selling Shareholder’s respective indemnity percentage multiplied by the aggregate liability of all Selling Shareholders in such case), to indemnify, defend and hold the Buyer, its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and the Subsidiary) and their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives (the “Buyer Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and in respect of any and all losses, damages, costs and reasonable expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel including both those incurred in connection with the defense or prosecution of the indemnifiable claim and those incurred in connection with the enforcement of this provision, whether or not related to a Third-Party Claim) (collectively, “Losses”), that they may incur arising out of or due to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Company or of such Selling Shareholder contained in this Agreement, (ii) any breach of any covenant of the Company or such Selling Shareholder contained in this Agreement, (iii) any claim by any Person seeking to assert or based upon rights to ownership of any stock options of the Company or the Subsidiary, including any such claim brought in Barbados, (iv) any liability in respect of payroll or withholding Taxes, any and all Taxes due and payable by the Company or the Subsidiary for any taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date (or for any Tax year beginning before and ending after the Closing Date to the extent allocable to the period prior to the Closing Date) and any Taxes due and payable relating to the sale of Shares hereunder and (v) liabilities of the Company, its Subsidiary or such Selling Shareholder for any broker’s or finder’s fees or other fees and expenses of the Company, its Subsidiary or such Selling Shareholder, including, but not limited to, legal fees and expenses incurred by the Company, its Subsidiary or the Selling Shareholders prior to the Closing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all Transaction Expenses (without requiring the Selling Shareholders to pay any such Transaction Expenses Amount already required to be paid as set forth in Section 1.2(a)(iv)). In connection with any exercise by any Buyer Indemnified Person of its rights hereunder, it shall be entitled to make all claims for indemnification through, and deal exclusively with, the Shareholder Representative Committee.

 

44


(c) Indemnification by the Buyer. Subject to the limits set forth in this Section 7.1, from and after the Closing, the Buyer and Parent agree to indemnify, defend and hold the Selling Shareholders and their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives (the “Seller Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and in respect of any and all Losses that they may incur arising out of or due to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Buyer or Parent contained in this Agreement, and (ii) any breach of any covenant of the Buyer or Parent contained in this Agreement. In connection with any exercise by any Seller Indemnified Person of its rights hereunder, it shall make any claim for indemnification only through, and Buyer and Parent shall be entitled to deal exclusively with, the Shareholder Representative Committee, and any claim for indemnification made directly by a Seller Indemnified Person to Buyer or Parent shall be deemed to be invalid for all purposes of this Article 7.

(d) Certain Limitations. Anything in this Article 7 to the contrary notwithstanding:

(i) except in the case of fraud, no Losses shall be recoverable by the Buyer Indemnified Persons pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.1(b) or the Seller Indemnified Persons pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.1(c),as the case may be, in respect of breaches of representations and warranties(other than the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 5.1, 5.2 and 5.5), from the respective other Party hereunder for any Losses unless and until the total of all Losses indemnifiable exceeds $100,000 (in which case the Buyer Indemnified Person or the Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall be entitled to seek compensation for all such Losses, subject to the other clauses of this Article 7);

(ii) except in the case of fraud, the aggregate of the sum of all indemnification obligations of the Selling Shareholders under Section 7.1(b) (other than with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5) shall be limited to an amount equal to the Escrow Deposit and any offsets against the Escrow Closing Shares, the Contingent Shares and the Performance Bonus;

(iii) except in the case of fraud, the aggregate of the sum of all indemnification obligations of the Selling Shareholders under Section 7.1(b) with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5 shall be limited to an amount equal to the Total Deal Consideration received by the Selling Shareholders;

(iv) Losses for which indemnification is provided pursuant to Section 7.1 of this Agreement shall be net of any amounts that may be recovered by the Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses (net of the insurance premium, if any, that becomes due as a result of such claim) and

 

45


shall be reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit available under applicable law to the Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person that such Person actually receives as a reduction in Taxes paid or as a credit against Taxes payable and that arises from the incurrence of or payment for any such Losses that are indemnified hereunder. Parent, the Shareholder Representative Committee and the Selling Shareholders, as appropriate, shall provide such documents and supporting schedules reflecting the net Tax benefit, or lack thereof, as are reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party; and

(v) in satisfaction of any indemnity claim, the Buyer Indemnified Persons shall first seek to recover from the Escrow Deposit before setting off against the Escrow Closing Shares, Contingent Shares or Performance Bonus.

(vi) none of the Buyer Indemnified Persons or the Seller Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover from the respective other Party hereunder for the same Loss more than once.

(e) Survival. Liability for breaches of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall terminate upon the expiry of the period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, except:

(i) in the case of fraud, in which case liability shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Parties until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations;

(ii) to the extent that, during such period, the Party seeking indemnification shall have given written notice to the Party from which indemnification of a claim is sought in respect of any such representation, warranty or covenant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in which case liability for such representation, warranty or covenant shall continue in full force and effect until the final determination of such claim;

(iii) the representations, warranties and covenants of the Selling Shareholders, the Shareholder Representative Committee, the Company and Parent relating to the Tax liability of the Company or its Subsidiary hereunder including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, those set forth in Section 3.10 and Section 6.3 continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations;

(iv) the representations and warranties of the Parties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 5.1 and 5.2 and the applicable Parties’ liability in connection therewith shall survive until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, if any, pertaining to any indemnity claim made thereunder and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date; and

(v) no Party or other Person shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement unless such Party or other Person has given written notice of its claim for indemnification within the survival periods specified in the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1.

 

46


(f) Notice and Opportunity to Defend. If there occurs an event which a party asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c), the party or parties seeking indemnification shall notify the other party or parties obligated to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly, but no later than ninety (90) days, after such Indemnifying Party receives written notice of any claim, event or matter as to which indemnity may be sought; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Section 7.1(f) shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 7.1, except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the rights of any such Indemnifying Party. In the event of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or demand asserted by any person who is not a party (or a successor to a party) to this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”) which is or gives rise to an indemnification claim, the Indemnifying Party may elect within twenty (20) days to acknowledge its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party herefor and to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may reasonably participate in such defense at the Indemnified Party’s expense, which shall include counsel of its choice; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, one counsel of its choice in each applicable jurisdiction (if more than one jurisdiction is involved) to represent the Indemnified Party if, based on the advice of outside counsel, there exists an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or if the Indemnifying Party (i) elects in writing not to defend, compromise or settle a Third-Party Claim, (ii) fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the required time period of its election as provided in this section, or (iii) having timely elected to defend a Third-Party Claim, fails after at least ten (10) days written notice to the Indemnifying Party, to reasonably prosecute or pursue such defense, and in each such case the Indemnified Party may defend such Third-Party Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, consent to entry of any judgment or entry into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all Liability in respect of such claim or litigation. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such claim without prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(g) No Selling Shareholder shall have any right of contribution against the Subsidiary with respect to any breach by the Subsidiary of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements and from and after the Closing, the Subsidiary shall have no obligation with respect to breaches of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. For

 

47


the avoidance of doubt, each of the Selling Shareholders acknowledges that it waives any rights or claims it may have against the Subsidiary, its Affiliates (other than the Buyer and/or Parent after the Closing), the Subsidiary and their respective officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents and representatives after the Closing contained in this Agreement, whether in law or equity relating in any way to Section 7.1.

(h) Offset Rights Regarding Contingent Consideration. The Buyer and Parent shall have the right to offset against the Contingent Shares and/or Performance Bonus for the amount of any indemnity claim of any Buyer Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article 7, provided, however, that (i) neither the Buyer nor Parent shall be permitted to offset more than fifteen percent (15%) of the Contingent Shares and the Performance Bonus for the amount of any and all indemnity claims of any Buyer Indemnified Person made prior to December 1, 2013 (other than any such claims made with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5), (ii) neither Buyer nor Parent shall be permitted to offset more than ten percent (10%) of the Contingent Shares and the Performance Bonus for the amount of any and all indemnity claims of any Buyer Indemnified Person made on or after December 1, 2013 (other than any such claims made with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5), and (iii) in no event shall the Buyer or Parent be permitted to offset an aggregate of more than fifteen percent (15%) of the Contingent Shares and the Performance Bonus for the amount of any and all indemnity claims of any Buyer Indemnified Person made at any time (other than any such claims made with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.9, 3.10, 3.12, 3.25, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5), including any claims made during the time periods referenced in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii). Neither the exercise nor the failure to exercise such right of setoff or to give a notice of claim will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer or Parent in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.

(i) Offset Mechanics. In connection with the exercise by Buyer or Parent of any offset rights described in Sections 7.1(a) or (h) above against shares of Parent Common Stock then held by the Secretary of Parent, a price per share equal to $6.75 shall be deemed to be the value of the shares held by the Secretary of Parent for purposes of calculating the number of such shares against which to offset in satisfaction of an indemnity claim. No fractional shares shall be reclaimed by Parent in connection with the exercise of offset rights. Accordingly, should any such right of offset extend to a fractional share (in accordance with the pertinent offset calculations), then the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall receive a cash payment from Parent for such fractional share. Should the Parent elect to exercise any offset right against shares of Parent Common Stock then held in escrow, then the escrowed certificates for such shares (together with any other assets or securities issued with respect thereto) shall be delivered to Parent for cancellation, and the Selling Shareholders and the Option Holders shall cease to have any further rights or claims with respect to such Unvested Shares (or other assets or securities).

(b) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the United States of America located in the U.S. State of New Jersey, unless such court declines the exercise of jurisdiction, in which case the courts of the State of New Jersey, for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement (and the parties agree not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in such courts), and further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered or certified mail to such party’s principal place of business shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the parties in any such court. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, in the courts of the United States of America located in the U.S. State of New Jersey, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives its right and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(c) The parties each hereby waive trial by jury in any judicial proceeding involving, directly or indirectly, any matters (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) in any way arising out of, related to, or connected with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the relationship established hereunder.

Section 9.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile signature), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

The Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and the documents referred to herein, embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 9.7 Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by written agreement of the parties hereto.

Section 9.8 Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and assigns (and, to the extent provided in Section 7.1, the other Buyer Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 9.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction.

A decision, act, consent or instruction of both Shareholder Representatives shall constitute a decision of the Shareholder Representative Committee and of all of the Selling Shareholders, and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of the Selling Shareholders. In the event the Shareholder Representatives cannot agree with respect to the taking of any given action, they shall request of the Selling Shareholders that held, as of immediately prior to the Closing, a majority of the preferred shares of the Company that such Selling Shareholders direct the Shareholder Representatives as to which action to take and the Shareholder Representatives shall then promptly take such action unanimously as the Shareholder Representative Committee. Each of the Buyer and Parent is hereby relieved from any liability to any person relating to a claim as to the lack of authority to act on behalf of the Selling Shareholders for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative Committee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Shareholder Representative Committee shall have full power and authority, on behalf of all of the Selling Shareholders and their successors, to interpret all the terms and provisions of this Agreement, to dispute or fail to dispute any claim of indemnifiable Losses made by a Buyer Indemnified Person, to negotiate and compromise any dispute which may arise under this Agreement, to sign any releases or other documents with respect to any such dispute, and to authorize delivery of cash and share certificates pursuant to this Agreement or any other payments to be made with respect thereto. The Shareholder Representatives shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Shareholder Representative Committee while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Selling Shareholders shall severally indemnify and hold each of the Shareholder Representatives harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Shareholder Representatives acting as the Shareholder Representative Committee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of their respective duties hereunder. In the event that any member of the Shareholder Representative Committee ceases to be a member as a result of death, resignation, incapacity or removal, then the remaining member of the Shareholder Representative Committee shall appoint the successor member as soon as reasonably practicable and immediately thereafter notify Buyer and Parent of the identity of such successor. Any such successor shall succeed the former Shareholder Representative as a member

 

61


of the Shareholder Representative Committee hereunder. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholder Representative Committee shall constitute notice to or from the Selling Shareholders.

The Committee Reimbursement Amount shall only be used for the payment of the SRC Expenses. Any of the Committee Reimbursement Amount originally deposited with the Shareholder Representative Committee at the Closing or pursuant to Section 1.2(a) that has not been consumed by the Shareholder Representative Committee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on or prior to the end of the period in which Parent or Buyer and their Affiliates may make claims for indemnification pursuant to Article 7 or, if later, the date on which all indemnification claims of Parent, Buyer or any of their Affiliates outstanding at the end of such period have been discharged in full, shall be distributed by the Shareholder Representative Committee to the Selling Shareholders.
