2.

2.1    Conversion of Company Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company or the holder of any of the shares of Company Common Stock, Parent Common Stock or any capital stock of Merger Sub:
(a)    All shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) held in treasury or owned directly by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (including all stock derivatives, stock options and stock warrants) shall be cancelled and retired and shall not represent capital stock of the Surviving Company and shall not be exchanged for the Merger Consideration. Shares of Company Common Stock that are canceled and retired pursuant to this Section 2.1 are hereinafter referred to as the “Excluded Shares”;
(b)    Each share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any shares of Company Common Stock issued in the Company Private Placements and any shares of Company Common Stock issued prior to the Effective Time upon the exercise or conversion of any Financing Warrants, Non-Financings Warrants or convertible securities issued in the Company Private Placements, shall be converted into and become the right to receive a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) equal to, in the case of all shares of Company Common Stock, the quotient obtained by dividing (1) the result of 112,802,326 as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split (the total number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, as may be adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3), by (2) the sum of (v) 7,996,636 (the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the Capitalization Date), (w) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued in the Company Private

-4-


Placements, and currently outstanding, as certified by the Company pursuant to the Company’s certificate delivered under Section 8.2(c), (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued as a result of conversion or exercise of any convertible securities issued in the Company Private Placements prior to the Effective Time, and currently outstanding, as certified by the Company pursuant to the Company’s certificate delivered under Section 8.2(c), (y) the result of dividing the total number of shares of Company Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the exercise of all Financing Warrants outstanding at the Effective Time, by three (3), and (z) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the exercise of all Non-Financing Warrants outstanding at the Effective Time (the quotient of (1) and (2) above is hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio,” which shall be calculated in all cases assuming the effect of the Reverse Stock Split, as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.2 and 2.3);
(i)    the Exchange Ratio is subject to adjustment, prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to Section 2.2,
(ii)    such Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger is subject to forfeiture and cancellation pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3(a)(i),
(iii)     the holders of Company Common Stock and Company Warrants may be entitled to additional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3(a)(ii) and
(iv)    (iv) the holders of the Company Common Stock and Company Warrants may be entitled to shares of Parent Common Stock released from escrow pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i).
(v)    Effective as of the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of certificates or evidence of shares in book-entry form that immediately prior to the Effective Time evidenced shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 3.2. The shares of Parent Common Stock to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.1 is hereinafter referred to as the “Merger Consideration”.
(c)    Each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one newly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Company with the same rights, powers, and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Company. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of common stock of Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Company into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

-5-


(d)    No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in respect of shares of Company Common Stock that are to be converted in the Merger into the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock. If any fractional share of Parent Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section, be issuable to a holder of a Certificate (other than holders of Certificates representing Excluded Shares) or a Company Warrant or other convertible security of the Company pursuant to the Merger Consideration, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to such holder of a Certificate or a Company Warrant or other convertible security of the Company in the Merger will be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock;
(e)    If, on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, Parent splits, combines into a smaller number of shares, or issues by reclassification any shares of Parent Common Stock (other than in the Reverse Stock Split), then the Merger Consideration and any dependent items shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action, and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration or other dependent item, as applicable, subject to further adjustment in accordance with this sentence; and
(f)    Except as they may be either (i) redeemed, exchanged or converted or (ii) their terms are amended, in each case as required, by the Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(j), the Parent Series B Preferred Stock and the Parent Series C Preferred Stock outstanding at Closing will not be affected by the Merger and will remain outstanding immediately after Closing.
(g)    If the Company fails to convert debt or preferred stock securities issued in the Company Private Placements that are convertible into shares of Company Common Stock, into shares of Company Common Stock no later than the Effective Time pursuant to Section 8.2(c) (a “Convertible Commitment”), and the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive the condition set forth in Section 8.2(c) and proceed to Closing, then the Parent and the Company agree to negotiate in good faith to calculate an adjustment to the Merger Consideration and/or provide for the Parent’s reservation of shares out of the Merger Consideration in light of the Convertible Commitment or, failing the parties’ agreement on such terms, the Parent and the Company agree to retain a nationally recognized third-party advisory firm reasonable acceptable to both parties, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to calculate an adjustment to the Merger Consideration and/or provide for the Parent’s reservation of shares out of the Merger Consideration in light of the Convertible Commitment.
2.2    Exchange Ratio Closing Adjustment.
(a)    At least five (5) Business Days before the Closing, the Company shall provide the Parent with (1) a written certification of the Target Net Proceeds, any Target Net Proceeds Shortfall, if applicable, the Target Blended Interest Rate, the Committed Blended Rate, if applicable, and the Calculated Annual Interest Cost Increase, if applicable, signed by the chief executive or chief financial officer of the Company, and (2) a calculation of (i) the reduction in the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as the Merger Consideration and (ii) the Exchange Ratio, in accordance with Sections 2.2(b) and/or 2.2(c). If Parent objects to such calculations in writing, Parent and Company shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within five (5) Business Days, and, if the same are so resolved within such time period, the Exchange

-6-


Ratio, as agreed upon by the Parent and Company, shall be final and binding. If Parent and Company are unable to resolve any differences within the period specified in the foregoing sentence, such disputed items shall be submitted to the Independent Accountant, whose determination shall be final and binding on the Parent and Company. The parties shall adjust the Closing Date as necessary for the Independent Accountant to make its determination, but shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Independent Accountant to promptly make its determination so they can close the Merger within the originally scheduled timeframe.
(b)    In the event that there is a Target Net Proceeds Shortfall, and the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive the condition set forth in Section 8.2(c) and proceed to Closing, the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Target Net Proceeds Shortfall divided by $0.30, and as a consequence of such reduction, the Exchange Ratio per share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall be adjusted accordingly.
(c)    If:
(i)    the Company fails to obtain and deliver to the Parent a signed Term Sheet pursuant to Section 7.1 on or before 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the date that is the tenth day following the date hereof, and the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive the condition set forth in Section 8.2(e) and proceed to Closing, then Parent may reduce the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued at the Effective Time as part of the Merger Consideration by an amount equal to 7.5% of the total number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be included in the Merger Consideration under Section 2.1 and, as a consequence of such reduction, the Exchange Ratio per share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall be adjusted accordingly (such reduced shares of Parent Common Stock being the “Reduced Shares”). Parent shall place the Reduced Shares in escrow with the Escrow Agent and shall cause such Reduced Shares to be issued to the Company Stockholders, on a per share of Company Common Stock basis in accordance with the Exchange Ratio, upon Surviving Company’s obtaining, no later than 90 days after Closing, a credit facility for at least the Target Loan Amount and with a weighted average interest rate of not more than the Target Blended Interest Rate. If Surviving Company does not obtain a credit facility for at least the Target Loan Amount and with a weighted average interest rate of not more than the Target Blended Interest Rate by 90 days after Closing, then the Parent shall be permitted to cancel the Reduced Shares placed into escrow pursuant to the foregoing sentence; or
(ii)    the Company obtains and delivers to the Parent a signed Term Sheet pursuant to Section 7.1 on or before 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the date that is the tenth day following the date hereof, with the exception that the weighted average interest rate per annum for all loans set forth in the Term Sheet (the “Committed Blended Rate”) exceeds the Target Blended Interest Rate, and the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive the condition set forth in Section 8.2(e) and proceed to Closing, then the Parent may elect, at its option, to reduce the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration by an amount equal to (1) the Calculated Annual Interest Cost Increase, divided by (2) $0.30, and as a consequence of such reduction, adjust the Exchange Ratio per share of Company

-7-


Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) accordingly. As used herein, the “Calculated Annual Interest Cost Increase” shall be calculated as (i) the excess of the Committed Blended Rate (which for purposes of this calculation only shall include the cost of any stock derivatives to be issued to lenders in connection with such financing, which stock derivatives will be valued using Black Scholes) over the Target Blended Interest Rate, multiplied by (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest under the Company’s outstanding debt as of Closing, multiplied by (iii) two (2) (representing a period of two years); provided that each of Section 2.2(c)(i) and Section 2.2(c)(ii) shall be mutually exclusive and no amount of Parent Common Stock shall be placed in escrow if the Exchange Ratio is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii) and no adjustment to the Exchange Ratio shall be made pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii) if shares of Parent Common Stock are placed in escrow pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i); provided further that, in the event that both Sections 2.2(c)(i) and (ii) apply, the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect which section to apply to reduce the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration.
(d)    If both Section 2.2(b) and (c) apply, and the Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to waive the conditions set forth in Sections 8.2(c) and 8.2(e) and proceed to Closing, each such section shall apply independently of the other to reduce the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration and to adjust the Exchange Ratio.
(e)    At least three (3) Business Days before the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent a statement setting forth its good faith estimate of the Company Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Company Closing Working Capital”), which statement shall contain an estimated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (giving effect to the application of the net cash proceeds of the Company Private Placements), its calculation of such Estimated Company Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Company Closing Working Capital Statement”), and a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company that the Estimated Company Closing Working Capital Statement was prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Estimated Company Closing Working Capital Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end. As used herein, the “Post-Closing Company Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Company Closing Working Capital set forth in the Company Closing Working Capital Statement minus the Estimated Company Closing Working Capital.
(f)    At least three (3) Business Days before the Closing, the Parent shall prepare and deliver to Company a statement setting forth its good faith estimate of the Parent Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital”), which statement shall contain an estimated balance sheet of the Parent as of the Closing Date, its calculation of such Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital Statement”), and a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Parent that the Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital Statement was prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied using the same

-8-


accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end. As used herein, the “Post-Closing Parent Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Parent Closing Working Capital set forth in the Parent Closing Working Capital Statement minus the Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital.
(g)    In the event: (i) the Estimated Company Closing Working Capital is a deficit greater than $(12,849,307), (ii) the balance on the Company’s seller notes issued by the Company in connection with the Company’s acquisition of iTech US, Inc. as of Closing exceeds $1,000,000, (iii) the balance on the Company’s financing lines and/or advances as of Closing exceeds $10,000,000, and/or (iv) the balance of the Company’s long-term debt as of Closing is greater than $914,981, being the balance of the Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2018, the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration shall be reduced, for each such case, by an amount equal to (i) the amount of any such excess, divided by (ii) $0.30, and as a consequence of such reduction, the Exchange Ratio per share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall be adjusted accordingly.
(h)    In the event the Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital is less than $0, the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration shall be increased by an amount equal to (i) the amount of any such shortfall, divided by (ii) $0.30, and as a consequence of such increase, the Exchange Ratio per share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall be adjusted accordingly.
2.3    Exchange Ratio Post-Closing Adjustment
(a)    Within 15 days following the Closing, an accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board reasonable acceptable to both parties, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (the “Independent Accountant”), shall prepare and deliver to Parent a statement setting forth its calculation of the Company Closing Working Capital (giving effect to the application of the net cash proceeds from the Company Private Placements) (the “Company Closing Working Capital Statement”). Within 15 days following the Closing, the Independent Accountant shall prepare and deliver to Company a statement setting forth its calculation of the Parent Closing Working Capital (the “Parent Closing Working Capital Statement”). The Company Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Company Adjustment and the Parent Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Parent Adjustment shall be final and binding on the Company and Parent.
(i)    In the event that the Company Closing Working Capital as set forth in the Company Closing Working Capital Statement is less than the Company Estimated Closing Working Capital, Parent shall cause to be cancelled an aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (i) the amount of any such Post-Closing Company Adjustment, divided by (ii) $0.30; provided that (1) if the Escrow Shares exceed the number of shares to be cancelled pursuant to the foregoing, Parent shall cause to be released the Escrow Shares remaining after canceling the shares of Parent Common Stock as provided in this Section 2.3(a)(i), on a per share of Company Common

-9-


Stock basis in accordance with the Exchange Ratio, to the holders of the Company Common Stock, and (2) if the Escrow Shares are insufficient to satisfy the adjustment required pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(i), the Parent shall be permitted to cancel, on a pro rata basis, an appropriate number of shares of Parent Common Stock out of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued to holders of Certificates as part of the Merger Consideration, and each share of Parent Common Stock to be issued to holders of Certificates hereunder shall be subject to cancellation and forfeiture, to the extent necessary to satisfy the adjustment required pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(i).
(ii)    In the event that the Parent Closing Working Capital set forth in the Parent Closing Working Capital Statement is less than the Estimated Parent Closing Working Capital, the Parent shall cause to be issued from the Escrow Shares to the holders of the Company Common Stock, pro rata, an additional aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (i) the amount of any such Post-Closing Parent Adjustment, divided by (ii) $0.30; provided that to the extent that the number of shares to be issued pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(ii) exceeds the number of shares available to be issued pursuant to the Parent Registration Statement (including the Escrow Shares), Parent, at its sole cost and expense shall prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-3 Registration Statement (or to the extent the Parent is not eligible to utilize a Form S-3 Registration Statement, a Form S-1 Registration Statement) with respect to such shortfall in shares within 60 days following the final determination of the Parent Closing Working Capital.
(b)    The term “Working Capital”, for any entity, shall mean the total current assets of such entity minus the total current liabilities of such entity.
2.4    Treatment of Company Warrants and Parent Equity Awards.
(a)    At the Effective Time, and in accordance with the terms of each cash warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock at an exercise price of at least $3.00 per share payable in cash previously issued pursuant to the terms of, or in connection with, the closing of the Company Private Placements before the Effective Time (the “Financing Warrants”), if any, and all other warrants to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (the “Non-Financing Warrants,” and together with the Financing Warrants, the “Company Warrants”) and that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, unless otherwise elected by the holder of any such Company Warrant, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to issue a replacement warrant to each holder thereof providing that such replacement warrant shall be exercisable in cash for a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of such Company Warrant, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) in respect of such replacement warrant shall be equal to the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Warrant, divided by the Exchange Ratio. From and after the Closing, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to comply with all of the terms and conditions set forth in each such replacement warrant, including the obligation to make the exchange contemplated thereby upon exercise thereof.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent the Exchange Ratio or number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger is adjusted pursuant to any of the provisions of Section 2.2 and/or Section 2.3 the number of shares of Parent

-10-


Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to such Company Warrants and the exercise price for each such Company Warrants shall be adjusted accordingly.
(c)    At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall reserve, out of the Merger Consideration, for future issuance a number of shares of Parent Common Stock at least equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will be subject to the Company Warrants as a result of the actions contemplated by this Section 2.4. Within 60 days after the Effective Time, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-3 Registration Statement (or to the extent the Parent is not eligible to utilize a Form S-3 Registration Statement, a Form S-1 Registration Statement) with respect to the shares of the Parent Common Stock subject to and issuable upon exercise of the Company Warrants.
(d)    Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock or other right to purchase Parent Common Stock under any Parent Common Stock Plan (each, a “Parent Stock Option”), to the extent outstanding and unexercised immediately prior thereto, shall become fully vested and shall, without any action on the part of any holder thereof, be automatically canceled in exchange for the right to receive, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Parent Stock Option in accordance with the terms of the applicable Parent Common Stock Plan and Option Award Agreement, and thereafter be treated as shares of Parent Common Stock for all purposes.
(e)    Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each restricted stock award granted under any Parent Common Stock Plan (each, a “Parent Restricted Share”), to the extent outstanding and subject to vesting or forfeiture conditions (whether time-based or performance-based), shall become fully vested or released from such forfeiture conditions in accordance with the terms of the applicable Parent Common Stock Plan and Restricted Stock Award Agreement as of the Effective Time and shall, without any action on the part of any holder thereof, thereafter be treated as shares of Parent Common Stock for all purposes.
(f)    As of the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award granted under any Parent Common Stock Plan, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Replacement Parent RSUs but excluding the Excluded Parent Restricted Stock Units (each, a “Parent Restricted Stock Unit”), to the extent outstanding and subject to vesting or forfeiture conditions (whether time-based or performance-based), shall become fully vested or released from such forfeiture conditions in accordance with the terms of the applicable Parent Common Stock Plan and Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement as of the Effective Time and shall, without any action on the part of any holder thereof, be automatically converted into that number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the parent Restricted Stock Unit award, and thereafter shall be treated as shares of Parent Common Stock for all purposes.
(g)    The restricted stock unit awards granted under any Parent Common Stock Plan pursuant to resolutions of the compensation committee of the Parent Board dated November 19, 2018, representing in the aggregate the right to receive up to 3,468,414 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Excluded Parent Restricted Stock Units”) will remain outstanding following the Effective Time and, following the Effective Time, will be treated in accordance with the terms set

-11-


forth in the applicable award agreement evidencing the Excluded Parent Restricted Stock Unit in effect as of the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the Effective Time, the Parent Board shall not take any action to terminate, cancel or amend the terms of the Excluded Parent Restricted Stock Units, except as required by applicable law.
3.
EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES FOR MERGER CONSIDERATION
3.1    Delivery of the Merger Consideration.
(a)    Prior to the Effective Time (and, with respect to Parent Common Stock, from time to time after the Effective Time, as applicable), Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, pursuant to an agreement providing for the matters set forth in this Section 3.1 and such other matters as may be appropriate and the terms of which shall be mutually acceptable to Parent and the Company, certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by book-entry shares will be issued) sufficient to effect the conversion of each share of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) into the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at the Closing, Parent shall cause to be issued to Escrow Agent, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Escrow Shares”) equal to five percent (5%) of the total shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued at Closing pursuant to Section 2.1, after giving effect to any adjustments required by Section 2.2, and the shares of Parent Common Stock issued to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be reduced to reflect the issuance to the Escrow Agent of such Escrow Shares.
3.2    Exchange Procedures.
(a)    Reasonably promptly after the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall designate and appoint an exchange and escrow agent from or affiliated with a nationally recognized banking institution reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Company, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to act as exchange agent and escrow agent hereunder (in such capacities, the “Exchange Agent and “Escrow Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging Certificates.
(b)    Promptly after the Effective Time, but in any event not more than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, of shares of Company Common Stock (each such holder, a “Company Stockholder”), (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to each Certificate representing any shares of Company Common Stock held by such Company Stockholder shall pass, only upon delivery of the completed letter of transmittal and such Certificate to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company shall mutually agree) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of each such Certificate in exchange for the total amount of Merger Consideration that such Company Stockholder is entitled to receive in exchange for such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock in the Merger pursuant to this Agreement. From and after the Effective Time, until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.2, each

-12-


Certificate representing shares of Company Common Stock held by a Company Stockholder shall be deemed to represent only the right to receive the total amount of Merger Consideration to which such Company Stockholder is entitled in exchange for such shares of Company Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.
(c)    Upon surrender by a Company Stockholder to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates representing such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, each Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (and the Exchange Agent shall mail to such Company Stockholder within ten (10) Business Days following such surrender): (i) a certificate (or certificates in the aggregate), or book-entry statement in the case of uncertificated shares, representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s properly surrendered Certificates were converted in accordance with Section 2, and such Certificates so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled, and (ii) a check in an amount of U.S. dollars (after giving effect to any required withholdings pursuant to Section 3.7) equal to any cash dividends and other distributions that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.3.
3.3    Dividends and Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until such Certificate is surrendered as provided in this Section 3, but provided that, to the extent that any such dividends or distributions are declared with a record date on or after the Effective Time, such dividends or distributions shall accrue for the account of such holder to be paid as provided in this Section 3.3. Subject to the effect of applicable laws, following such surrender, there shall be paid, without interest, to the record holder of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange for shares of Company Common Stock represented immediately prior to the Effective Time by such Certificate (i) when any payment or distribution of a certificate representing any share(s) of Parent Common Stock is made to such holder pursuant to Section 3.2(b) or 3.2(c), all dividends and other distributions payable in respect of such Parent Common Stock with a record date on or after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of such surrender and not previously paid and (ii) on the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender. For purposes of dividends and other distributions in respect of Parent Common Stock, all shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be entitled to dividends pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.
3.4    Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. After the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock on the records of the Company. After the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and such dividends and other distributions on or in respect of Parent Common Stock as provided herein or as otherwise provided

-13-


by applicable law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Company for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in Section 2.
3.5    Termination of Fund; No Liability. At any time following twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to Parent (i) certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) cash held by the Exchange Agent, in each case, not delivered to holders of Certificates. Thereafter, holders of Certificates shall be entitled to look only to Parent, which shall thereafter act as the Exchange Agent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar laws), as general creditors of Parent with respect to the delivery of the Merger Consideration. None of Parent, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person (as defined below) for any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar law. For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” means any natural person, firm, corporation, partnership, company, limited liability company, trust, joint venture, association, Governmental Entity or other entity.
3.6    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit attesting to that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if requested by Parent or the Surviving Company, the delivery by such Person of a bond (in such amount as Parent or the Surviving Company may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate a certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, which constitute the total amount of Merger Consideration deliverable in respect of such Certificate as determined in accordance with Section 2.
3.7    Withholding Taxes. Parent and Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration payable to any holder of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and pay to the appropriate taxing authorities, such amounts as the Parent, or any affiliate (as defined under the Exchange Act (an “Affiliate”)) thereof, or the Exchange Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any applicable provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax law. To the extent that such amounts are properly withheld by the Parent or Exchange Agent and timely paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made by Parent or the Exchange Agent.
3.8    Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or the Parent Common Stock shall occur (other than the issuance of additional shares of capital stock of the Company or Parent as permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, including but not limited to the Replacement Parent RSUs and the Reverse Stock Split required by this Agreement), including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), or combination,

-14-


exchange, readjustment of shares, or similar transaction, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Exchange Ratio and the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan Shares, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit Parent or the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

The Company and its Subsidiaries are insured with reputable insurers against such risks and in such amounts as the management of the Company reasonably has determined to be prudent in accordance with industry practice (taking into account the cost and availability of such insurance), except as would not reasonably be expected to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with their insurance policies and are not in default under any of the terms thereof, except for any such non-compliance or default that would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each such policy is outstanding and in full force and effect (other than due to the ordinary expiration of the term thereof). All premiums and other payments due under any such policy have been paid.
4.19    Environmental Liability. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of any legal, administrative, arbitral or other proceedings, claims, actions, causes of action or, to the Knowledge of the Company, private environmental investigations or remediation activities or governmental investigations of any nature seeking to impose, or that would reasonably be expected to result in the imposition, on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation arising under common law standards relating to protection of the environment or human health, or under any local, state or federal environmental statute, regulation or ordinance, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (collectively, “Environmental Laws”), which liability or obligation would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any agreement, order, judgment, decree, letter or memorandum by or with any Governmental Entity or third Person imposing any material liability or obligation pursuant to or under any Environmental Law that would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all Environmental Laws, including possessing all material permits required for its currently conducted operations under applicable Environmental Laws, except, in each case, for any such non-compliance that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

With respect to personal property used in the business of the Parent and its Subsidiaries which is leased rather than owned, neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary thereof is in default under the terms of any such lease the loss of which would reasonably be expected to result in, either individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.
(b)    Leased Property. All material leases of real property and all other leases material to the Parent and its Subsidiaries under which the Parent or a Subsidiary, as lessee, leases real or personal property (the “Parent Leased Real Property”) are valid and binding in accordance with their respective terms, there is not under such lease any material existing default by the Parent or such Subsidiary or, to the Knowledge of the Parent, the lessors thereunder, or any event which with notice or lapse of time would constitute such a default, and in the case of real estate leases the Parent or such Subsidiary quietly enjoys the premises provided for in such lease except, in each case, as would not reasonably be expected to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Without the prior written consent of Parent, the consideration of this Agreement shall be the only matter (other than matters of procedure and matters required by applicable law to be voted on by the Company Stockholders in connection with the consideration of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) that the Company shall propose to be acted on by the Company Stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting.

At the request of Parent or the Company, the other party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with its obligations under the preceding sentence by providing electronic access to such documents and information on the online data rooms established by each of the Company and Parent prior to the date hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, nor Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries on the other hand, shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would (A) violate or prejudice the rights of its customers or employees, (B) jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the institution in possession or control of such information, (C) contravene, violate or breach any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or fiduciary duty or any binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or (D) be adverse to its interests in any pending or threatened litigation between the parties hereto over the terms of this Agreement.

-59-


with respect to the Merger and, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (ii) to promptly prepare, file and provide to third parties and Governmental Entities all applications, statements, notices, petitions, registrations, requests, declarations and filings which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, Reverse Stock Split, New Parent Incentive Plan and Parent Common Stock Issuance, to obtain (and to cooperate with the other party to obtain) as promptly as practicable all material permits, Consents, registrations, authorizations and exemptions of or from all third parties and Governmental Entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, Reverse Stock Split Charter Amendment, New Parent Incentive Plan and Parent Common Stock Issuance, and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits, Consents, registrations, authorizations and exemptions of all such third parties and Governmental Entities.

If any party hereto or affiliate thereof shall receive a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to any Regulatory Law with respect to which any such filings have been made, then such party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request.

7.8    Employees; Employee Benefit Plans.
(a)    Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, (i) give those employees who are, as of the Effective Time, employed by the Company and its

-61-


Subsidiaries (the “Continuing Employees”), full credit for purposes of determining eligibility and vesting (but not for purposes of any benefit accruals) under any Parent Benefit Plans or other arrangements maintained by Parent, including, but not limited to, vacation and paid time off accruals (other than any defined benefit or equity-based plans) (collectively, the “Parent Plans”) for such Continuing Employees’ service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor entity) to the same extent recognized by the Company and its Subsidiaries; (ii) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Continuing Employees under any Parent Plan that is a welfare benefit plan that such employees may be eligible to participate in after the Effective Time to the same extent waived by the Company and its Subsidiaries or otherwise not subject to a limitation by the Company and its Subsidiaries; (iii) provide credit under any such welfare plan for any co-payments, deductibles and out-of-pocket expenditures for the remainder of the coverage period during which any transfer of coverage of any Continuing Employee occurs; and (iv) honor in accordance with their terms all Company Benefit Plans or arrangements or collective bargaining agreements maintained by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.
(b)    From a period of one (1) year from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, provide to the Continuing Employees levels of compensation and benefit arrangements that are no less favorable in the aggregate than either the (i) levels of compensation and benefits provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time or (ii) the levels of compensation and benefit arrangements that are provided to similarly situated employees of Parent; provided, however, that Parent’s health insurance plan shall continue in full force and effect through and including the date that is ninety (90) days from the Effective Time. Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, cause the Continuing Employees to commence participation in such Parent Benefit Plans as are provided to similarly situated employees of Parent, provided that such participation shall be subject to the terms of any collective bargaining agreement or similar contract covering any Continuing Employee. From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Company shall keep in full force and effect, and comply with the terms and conditions of, any employment, severance or change of control agreement (including, without limitation, any such agreements in the form of offer letters) in effect as of the date of this Agreement or entered into or amended after the date of this Agreement in compliance with Section 6.2 hereof between or among the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any of its or their employees.
(c)    The Company and its Subsidiaries and Parent and its Subsidiaries hereby acknowledge that the Merger will constitute a “Change in Control” (or concept of similar import) under the Parent Benefit Plans.
(d)    The provisions of this Section 7.8 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person (including for the avoidance of doubt any Continuing Employees, present or former employees or directors, consultants or independent contractors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries), other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies (with respect to the matters

-62-


provided for in this Section 7.8) under or by reason of any provision of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 7.8 or elsewhere in the Agreement shall be construed to prevent, from and after the Effective Time, the termination of employment of any individual Continuing Employee or, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.8(a) and 7.8(b), any change in the employee benefits available to any Continuing Employee or the amendment or termination of any particular plan in accordance with its terms.
7.9    Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.
(a)    From and after the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Surviving Company shall jointly and severally: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each individual who served as a director or officer of the Parent, the Company, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) (in such Person’s capacity as such and not as stockholders of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent required, authorized or permitted by Delaware law, as now or hereafter in effect, in connection with any Claim and any judgments, fines (including excise taxes), penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement) resulting therefrom; and (ii) promptly pay on behalf of or, within thirty (30) days after any request for advancement, advance to each of the Indemnified Parties, to the fullest extent required, authorized or permitted by Delaware law, as now or hereafter in effect, any Expenses incurred in defending, serving as a witness with respect to or otherwise participating in any Claim in advance of the final disposition of such Claim, including payment on behalf of or advancement to the Indemnified Party of any Expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with enforcing any rights with respect to such indemnification and/or advancement, in each case without the requirement of any bond or other security, but in the case of advancement of Expenses upon receipt of an undertaking, to the extent required by applicable law, from such Indemnified Party to repay such advanced Expenses if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final order that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to such Expenses. In the event any Claim is brought against any Indemnified Party, Parent and the Surviving Company shall each use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist in the vigorous defense of such matter, provided that neither Parent nor the Surviving Company shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Claim (in which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder) without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party if and to the extent the claimant seeks any non-monetary relief (including any admission of liability or guilt) from such Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control the defense of any action, suit, investigation or proceeding with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to Parent and Parent and the Surviving Company shall cooperate in the defense thereof; provided, that Parent shall not be liable for the fees of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties, other than local counsel, unless a conflict of interest shall be caused thereby. The indemnification and advancement obligations of Parent and the Surviving Company pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall extend to acts or omissions occurring at or before the Effective Time and any Claim relating thereto (including, but not limited to, any acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement by the Company Board and the Company’s stockholders and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and any Claim relating

-63-


thereto) and all rights to indemnification and advancement conferred hereunder shall continue as to an individual who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries at or prior to the Effective Time and shall inure to the benefit of such individual’s heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. In connection with any determination as to whether the Indemnified Parties are entitled to the benefits of this Section 7.9, the burden of proof shall be on Parent and the Surviving Company to establish that an Indemnified Party is not so entitled. As used in this Section 7.9(a), (A) the term “Claim” means any threatened, asserted, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, or any inquiry or investigation, whether instituted by the Company, any Governmental Entity or any other party, that any Indemnified Party in good faith believes might lead to the institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other, including any arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution mechanism, arising out of or pertaining to matters that relate to such Indemnified Party’s duties or service as a director or officer of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any employee benefit plan maintained by any of the foregoing at or prior to the Effective Time and any other Person at the request of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries; and (B) the term “Expenses” means reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs, expenses and obligations (including experts’ fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, data, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Claim for which indemnification is authorized pursuant to this Section 7.9(a), including any action relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement brought by an Indemnified Party.
(b)    From the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) years thereafter, Parent and the Surviving Company shall keep in full force and effect, and comply with the terms and conditions of, any agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement between or among the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and, in each case, any Indemnified Party providing for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to such Indemnified Party.
(c)    Without limiting any of the obligations under Section 7.9(a), Parent agrees that all rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses and all limitations of liability existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub or in the corresponding constituent documents of any of their Subsidiaries as in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to matters occurring on or prior to the Effective Time shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter, without any amendment thereto.
(d)    If Parent or the Surviving Company or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent and the Surviving Company, as the case may be (including Parent’s ultimate

-64-


parent entity, if applicable), assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Company set forth in this Section 7.9.
(e)    Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall obtain and fully pay the premium for the non-cancellable extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Parent’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and the Parent’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “D&O Insurance”), in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Parent’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Parent’s existing policies with respect to any actual or alleged error, misstatement, misleading statement, act, omission, neglect, breach of duty or any matter claimed against a director or officer of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries by reason of him or her serving in such capacity that existed or occurred at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby). If the Parent for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Parent shall continue to maintain in effect, for a period of at least six years from and after the Effective Time, the D&O Insurance in place as of the date hereof with the Parent’s current insurance carrier or with an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Parent’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Parent’s existing policies as of the date hereof, or the Parent shall purchase from the Parent’s current insurance carrier or from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Parent’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance comparable D&O Insurance for such six-year period with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than as provided in the Parent’s existing policies as of the date hereof; provided, however, that Parent and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall not be required to spend as a premium therefor an amount in excess of $252,000 and (iii) if, during such six (6) year period, such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all or can be obtained only for an amount in excess of $252,000, Parent and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be obtained as much directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage as can be obtained for $252,000, on terms and conditions substantially similar to the Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
(f)    The provisions of this Section 7.9 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise. The obligations of Parent or the Surviving Company under this Section 7.9 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Party under this Section 7.9 without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party. Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to perform all of the obligations of the Surviving Company under this Section 7.9. Parent and the Surviving Company, jointly and severally, shall pay all expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, that an Indemnified Party may incur in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided for in this Section 7.9.

This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.
9.4    Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other parties hereto contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto

Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

All schedules accompanying this Agreement and all information specifically referenced in any such schedule form an integral part of this Agreement, and references to this Agreement include reference to them.

10.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the exhibits hereto), the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter constitute the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any termination of this Agreement.
10.6    Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions and that, accordingly, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief sought in accordance with this Section 10.6 on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions in accordance with this Agreement to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

The parties hereto further agree that all of the provisions of Section 10.11 relating to waiver of jury trial shall apply to any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim referenced in this Section 10.7.

-84-


10.8    Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, in all cases so long as neither the economic nor legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or its stockholders. Upon any such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.
10.9    Publicity.

10.11    Waiver of Jury Trial.

10.12    Counterparts; Delivery.

Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified.

10.
Miscellaneous.
A.    Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
B.    Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Party. Subject to the preceding

7


sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 10(B) shall be void and shall not be deemed to prevent Parent from engaging in any merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction.
C.    Amendments and Modifications. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified unless such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by (a) Parent, and (b) Company Stockholder. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable law.

All notices, requests and other communications to any party under, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if delivered in person, upon delivery; (b) if transmitted by electronic mail (“e-mail”), upon confirmation of receipt of such e-mail; or (c) if transmitted by national overnight courier, upon delivery, in each case addressed as follows:

G.    Enforcement.

Prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6, it is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with this Section 10(G), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at law or in equity.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is entered into by Company Stockholder solely in its capacity as the Beneficial Owner of shares of Subject Securities, and not, if applicable, in such Company Stockholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company, and nothing in this Agreement shall (a) restrict in any respect any actions taken (or failure to take actions) by Company Stockholder or its designees or Representatives who are a director or officer of the Company solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company or (b) be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict Company Stockholder from exercising its fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10(N) shall in any way modify, alter or amend any of the terms of the Merger Agreement.
O.    Documentation and Information. Company Stockholder shall not make any public announcement or statement regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable law (provided that reasonable notice of any such disclosure will be provided to Parent).

Company Stockholder agrees to promptly give Parent any information it may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents, and Company Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by Company Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.
P.    Obligation to Update Schedule A. Company Stockholder agrees that in connection with any acquisitions or Transfers (to the extent permitted) of Subject Securities by Company Stockholder, Company Stockholder will, as promptly as practicable following the completion of thereof, notify Parent in writing of such acquisition or Transfer and the Parties will update Schedule A to reflect the effect of such acquisition or Transfer.
