Each such Company Option so assumed by Buyer under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including, if applicable, the vesting arrangements and other terms and conditions set forth in the Company Equity Plan and the applicable award agreement) as are in effect immediately prior to the Closing, except that (i) such award shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Buyer Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Buyer Common Stock, with cash being payable for any fractional share eliminated by such rounding) equal to the product of (A) the number of Company Ordinary Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such award immediately prior to the Closing, multiplied by (B) the Equity Exchange Ratio, (ii) the per share exercise price applicable to the shares of Buyer Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed award (if applicable) shall be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the next whole cent) of (A) the exercise price per Company Ordinary Share at which such award was exercisable immediately prior to the Closing, as converted to US dollars ($) per the NIS Exchange Rate if stated in NIS, divided by (B) the Equity Exchange Ratio, (iii) subject to Section 6.12, any rights to the accelerated vesting of an assumed Company Option shall be waived by the applicable Continuing Employee prior to the Closing, and (iv) no assumed Company Option may be exercised prior to the determination of the Equity Exchange Ratio or “early exercised” (i.e., an assumed award may be exercised for shares of Buyer Common Stock only to the extent the assumed award is vested at the time of exercise pursuant to the applicable vesting schedule). Consistent with the terms of the Company Equity Plan and the documents governing the outstanding awards under such plan as in effect on the Agreement Date, the consummation of the Share Exchange and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall not terminate any of the outstanding Company Options held by Continuing Employees or accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such awards or the shares of Buyer Common Stock which shall be subject to those options upon Buyer’s assumption of the options in the Share Exchange. As soon as reasonably practicable after the determination of the Equity Exchange Ratio, Buyer shall issue to each Continuing Employee who immediately prior to the Closing was a holder of an outstanding Company Option an electronic document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such award by Buyer.

(f) Each Company Option held by a Person who is not a Continuing Employee that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing, whether vested or unvested, will be duly, validly and entirely cancelled, terminated and extinguished in accordance with its terms by virtue of the Share Exchange and without any further action on the part of any holder thereof and/or the terms of a written agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer) executed by such holder and delivered to Buyer, effective as of the Closing without any assumption or conversion thereof and without any present or future right of such holder to receive any payment or consideration.

1.3 Closing. The consummation of the Share Exchange (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures, or at the offices of Fenwick & West LLP, Silicon Valley Center, 801 California Street, Mountain View, California, or at such other location as the parties hereto agree at 10:00 a.m. local time on (a) a date to be mutually agreed upon by the Buyer and the

 

12


Seller’s Representative or (b) the date that is three (3) Business Days after all of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 7 of this Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions which, by their terms, are intended to be satisfied at the Closing or on the Closing Date, as defined below). The date on which the Closing occurs is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

1.4 Total Stock Consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate number of shares of Buyer Common Stock to be issued by Buyer to the Sellers under the terms of this Agreement exceed (a) an amount equal to the Aggregate Stock Consideration Amount (taking into account the assumptions of the Company Options pursuant to Section 1.2(e)), or (b) twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding shares of Buyer Common Stock as of the Closing Date, it being the understanding of the parties that any consideration payable in excess of the foregoing limitations shall be paid to the Sellers in cash (in lieu of equity) as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(a) Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock), reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to the Company Capital Stock or Buyer Common Stock occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, all references in this Agreement to specified numbers of shares of any class or series affected thereby, and all calculations provided for that are based upon numbers of shares of any class or series (or trading prices therefor) affected thereby, shall be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change.

(b) Rights Not Transferable. The rights of the Company Securityholders under this Agreement as of immediately prior to the Closing are personal to each such Company Securityholder and shall not be transferable for any reason otherwise than by operation of law, will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted transfer of such right by any holder thereof (otherwise than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence or with the Consent of Buyer) shall be null and void.

(c) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Share Exchange but, in lieu thereof, each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Buyer Common Stock (after aggregating for each particular stock certificate or instrument representing Company Capital Stock all fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Buyer an amount of cash (rounded down to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (i) such fraction and (ii) the Buyer Stock Price Per Share.

1.5 Tax Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.5, any consideration which a holder of Company 102 Shares, Company 102 Options or Company 3(i) Options has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.2 in respect of such Company 102 Shares, Company 102 Options or Company 3(i) Options, shall be transferred (or caused to be transferred) by Buyer directly to the Section 102 Trustee (with respect to the Company 102 Shares and Company 102 Options), at the Closing (and with respect to any Company 102 Shares, pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2 above), in accordance with the Israeli 102 Tax Ruling (or the Israeli Section 102 Interim Tax Ruling, as applicable), if obtained, and shall be held in trust pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Israeli Tax Code (including Section 102 and Section 3(i) thereof, as applicable) and the Israeli 102 Tax Ruling (or the Israeli Section 102 Interim Tax Ruling, as applicable), if obtained. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1.5 to the contrary, if any withholding or deduction of Taxes or other amounts is imposed by any

 

13


jurisdiction other than Israel with respect to such Company 102 Shares, Company 102 Options or Company 3(i) Options, the Buyer, and any Person acting on its behalf (each, a “Payor”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the net consideration delivered to the holders thereof the amount of withholdings or deductions for Taxes required by Legal Requirements to be deducted and withheld.

1.6 No Liability. Neither Buyer nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.7 No Further Ownership Rights in the Company Capital Stock or Company Options. The Aggregate Consideration Value paid in cash and Shares of Buyer Common Stock issued or issuable under the terms of this Agreement shall be paid or payable in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock and Company Options. From and after the Closing, the holders of Company Securities shall cease to have any rights with respect to Company Capital Stock and Company Options. At the Closing, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options which were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. If, after the Closing, any instrument representing shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options is presented to the Company or to Buyer for any reason, such instrument shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE 1.

1.8 Company Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) The Company shall deliver the Company Closing Financial Certificate to Buyer not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing, Buyer may object to the calculations of the Company Net Working Capital included in the Company Closing Financial Certificate (the “Financial Calculations”) by delivering to the Sellers’ Representative a certificate signed by an officer of Buyer (the “Buyer Financial Notice”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of Company Net Working Capital and the amount by which Company Net Working Capital as calculated by Buyer is more or less than Company Net Working Capital as set forth in the Company Closing Financial Certificate together with supporting documentation, information and calculations. Any Buyer Financial Notice shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (as consistently applied by the Company) and shall take into account any information not available to the parties at the time the Company Closing Financial Certificate shall have been delivered.

(c) The Sellers’ Representative may object to the Financial Calculations set forth in the Buyer Financial Notice by providing written notice of such objection to Buyer, within thirty (30) days after Buyer’s delivery of the Buyer Financial Notice (the “Notice of Objection” and the “Objection Period”, respectively). Buyer shall provide an auditing firm reasonably acceptable to both the Buyer and Sellers’ Representative (the “Reviewing Accountant”) with a copy of the Notice of Objection and the Buyer Financial Notice within two (2) Business Days of such Notice of Objection. The Sellers’ Representative’s failure to timely provide the Notice of Objection shall be deemed an acceptance by Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of all Sellers) of the Financial Calculations set forth in the Buyer Financial Notice. The Sellers’ Representative and its representatives and agents shall be given reasonable access (including electronic access, to the extent available), at any time prior to the expiry of the Objection Period, during Buyer’s and/or the ’Company’s (as the case may be) normal business hours (or such other times as the parties may agree) to the books and records of the Company, as they may reasonably require, and reasonable access during normal business hours to such personnel or representatives of the

 

14


Company and Buyer (and such other applicable Subsidiaries) (including but not limited to accountants and the individuals responsible for preparing the Buyer Financial Notice) for the purposes of resolving any disputes or responding to any matters or inquiries raised concerning the Buyer Financial Notice and/or the Financial Calculations as set forth in the Buyer Financial Notice.

(d) If the Sellers’ Representative timely provides the Notice of Objection, then the parties shall confer in good faith for a period of up to ten (10) Business Days following Buyer’s timely receipt of the Notice of Objection, in an attempt to resolve any disagreement and any resolution by them shall be in writing and shall be final and binding.

(e) If, after such ten (10) Business Days period, the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer cannot resolve any such disagreement, then the Reviewing Accountant shall review only the matters in the Notice of Objection that are still disputed by Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative and the Financial Calculations to the extent relevant thereto. After review of such calculations and other information that the Reviewing Accountant in its sole discretion determines is relevant, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly determine the resolution of such remaining disputed items (and the parties shall instruct the Reviewing Accountant to make such determination within ten (10) days following submission) and a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis for such determination and the Reviewing Accountant shall provide Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative with a calculation of Company Net Working Capital and/or Company Cash in accordance with such determination and such determination and explanation shall be final and binding on the parties.

(f) If either the Company Net Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.8 (the “Final Net Working Capital”), is less than (that is, more negative than) the Company Net Working Capital set forth in the Company Financial Closing Certificate (such difference, a “Final Net Working Capital Shortfall”), then each Seller will severally but not jointly, based on such Seller’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, and Buyer shall have the right to retain from the Post-Closing Adjustment Holdback Amount, a number of shares of Buyer Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equal to the Final Net Working Capital Shortfall, if any, based on the Buyer Stock Price Per Share.

(g) If the Final Net Working Capital , is more than (that is, more positive than) the Company Net Working Capital set forth in the Company Financial Closing Certificate (such difference, the “Positive Adjustment Amount”), then Buyer shall deliver (or caused to be delivered) to each Seller, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, such Seller’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share of the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equal to such Positive Adjustment Amount, based on the Buyer Stock Price Per Share, and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.4(c) above. Any such upward or downward adjustment in respect of the Final Net Working Capital will be reflected in the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Holdback Amount to be distributed to the Sellers, each in accordance with its respective Non-Founder Seller Pro-Rata Share or Founder Seller Pro-Rata Share, as applicable, after the Closing pursuant to Sections 1.2(b) and (c).

1.9 Tax Consequences. Buyer makes no representations or warranties to the Company or to any Company Securityholder regarding the Tax treatment of the Share Exchange, or any of the Tax consequences to the Sellers or any other Company Securityholder of this Agreement, the Share Exchange or any of the other transactions or agreements contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that the Sellers and the Company Securityholders are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement, the Share Exchange and the other transactions and agreements contemplated hereby.

 

15


1.10 Certain Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the respective Company Securityholder when due, and each Company Securityholder shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees.

(a) Withholding Rights. Each Payor shall be entitled to (i) deduct and withhold from the Aggregate Net Consideration Amount and from any other payments otherwise required to be made to any Person pursuant to this Agreement (each, a “Payee”) such amounts in cash or in shares of Buyer Common Stock as such Payor is required to deduct and withhold from consideration due to such Payee or in connection therewith with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax law and (ii) request any necessary Tax forms, including IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate series of Form W-8, as applicable, or any other proof of exemption from withholding or any similar information, from any Company Securityholder and any other recipient of any payment hereunder. Each Payor shall promptly pay the amount deducted or withheld to the proper Tax authority in accordance with the applicable Legal Requirements. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to such holders in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The withholding party shall promptly provide to the Payee from which such amounts were withheld or deducted written confirmation of the amount so withheld or deducted. Buyer shall be entitled to sell the portion of the total shares of Buyer Common Stock otherwise deliverable to a Company Securityholder that is required to enable the relevant Payor to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement. Buyer or the Company shall notify the relevant Company Securityholder that such sale and withholding or deduction was made and remit to such Company Securityholder any balance of the proceeds of such sale not applied to the payment of Taxes less any costs or expenses incurred by the relevant Payor in connection with such sale.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1.9(a) above but subject to sections (f) and (g) below, with respect to Israeli Tax, all amounts (cash or stock) payable to the Company Stockholders shall be retained by the Paying Agent for a period of up to one hundred and eighty (180) days from the Closing Date or an earlier date required in writing by a Company Stockholder in respect of its applicable portion of its consideration or as otherwise required by the ITA (the “Withholding Drop Date”) (during which time neither the Payor nor the Paying Agent shall withhold any Israeli Tax on such consideration, except as provided below), and during which time each such Company Stockholder (acting for itself or through an agent) may obtain a certification or ruling (the “Withholding Certificate”) issued by the ITA, in form and substance acceptable to Buyer (x) exempting Buyer from the duty to withhold Israeli Taxes with respect to the applicable consideration of such Company Stockholder, (y) determining the applicable rate of Israeli Tax to be imposed on the applicable consideration of such Company Stockholder or (z) providing any other instructions regarding the payment or withholding with respect to the applicable consideration of such Company Stockholder. In the event that prior to the Withholding Drop Date, a Company Stockholder (or an agent acting on its behalf) submits to Buyer a Withholding Certificate, in form and substance acceptable to Buyer, the Paying Agent shall act in accordance with the provisions of such Withholding Certificate, subject to any deduction and withholding as may be required to be deducted and withheld under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law (other than Israeli Tax Law).

 

16


If any Company Stockholder entitled to payment hereunder (i) does not provide the Buyer with a Withholding Certificate, in form and substance acceptable to buyer, prior to the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request to Buyer and the Paying Agent to release his, her or its portion of the applicable consideration prior to the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Withholding Certificate at or before such time, in form and substance acceptable to Buyer, then the amount to be withheld from such Company Stockholder’s portion of the applicable consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as determined by Buyer in accordance with Section 1.9(a) above, which amount shall be increased by the interest plus linkage differences as defined in Section 159A of the Israeli Income Tax Code for the time period between the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the month following the month during which the Closing Date occurs and the time the relevant payment is made, and calculated in NIS based on a dollars to NIS exchange rate not lower than the effective exchange rate at the Closing Date and in such manner as Buyer reasonably determines to be in accordance with applicable Law. For the purpose of this section, the value of the shares shall be equal to the higher of (a) the closing price of a Buyer Common Stock as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange on the Closing Date increased by interest plus linkage differences as defined in Section 159A of the Israeli Income Tax Code, as described above, and (b) the closing price of a Buyer’s share as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange on the day of the Withholding Drop Date or of the request for release (in which case, notwithstanding the above, the amount of tax withheld will not be increased by interest plus linkage differences as defined in Section 159A of the Israeli Income Tax Code, as described above). Any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable Company Stockholder and deducted from payments to be made to such Company Stockholder.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the absence of a Withholding Certificate which also applies to the Company Stockholder’s portion of the Indemnity Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund, the applicable amount to be withheld from such Company Stockholder’s portion of any amount deposited with the Paying Agent will be calculated (as provided above) also on such Company Stockholder’s portion of the Indemnity Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund, and will be deducted, and delivered to the ITA as provided above.

(c) To the extent any amounts are required to be deducted or withheld from payments made in cash or in shares, such amounts will be withheld first from the cash portion of the consideration. In the event such cash amounts required to be deducted or withheld exceed the cash portion of the consideration paid to the relevant Company Stockholder, the Payor shall be entitled to sell the portion of share consideration otherwise deliverable to the relevant Company Stockholder that is required to enable the Payor to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement. The Payor shall notify the relevant Company Stockholder that such sale and withholding or deduction was made and remit to such Company Stockholder any balance of the proceeds of such sale not applied to the payment of Taxes less any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such sale.

(d) The Company, the Company Stockholders and the Sellers’ Representative shall release the Buyer and the Paying Agent from any responsibility concerning the sale of shares, in the circumstances described in this section, including the Paying Agent use of discretion, the sales price of the shares, and timing of the sale provided that the shares, are sold at market values via stock exchange where the shares may be lawfully traded.

(e) Any withholding made in NIS with respect to payments made hereunder in dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate not lower than applicable rate on the Closing Date and in such manner as the Buyer reasonably determines to be in compliance with the applicable Law and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable Company Stockholder and deducted from payments to be made to such Company Stockholder.

 

17


(f) The Company and the Sellers may prepare and file with the ITA an application for a ruling permitting any Sellers who elect to become a party to such a tax ruling (the “Electing Holder”), to defer any applicable Israeli tax with respect to any consideration in Buyer Common Stock that such Electing Holder will receive pursuant to this Agreement until the sale, transfer or other conveyance for cash of such Buyer Common Stock by such Electing Holder or such other date set forth in Section 104(h) of the Israeli Tax Code (the 104(h) Tax Ruling). Buyer shall cooperate with the Company and the Sellers and their Israeli counsel with respect to the preparation and filing of such application and in the preparation of any written or oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the 104(h) Tax Ruling provided that the 104(h) Tax Ruling shall not impose any restrictions or obligations on Buyer, the Company or the US Subsidiary and that any costs associated with the application for the 104(h) Tax Ruling shall be fully borne by the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable law to obtain the 104(h) Tax Ruling, as promptly as practicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and the Sellers shall not make any application to the ITA with respect to any matter relating to the 104(h) Tax Ruling without first consulting with the Buyer’s Israeli legal counsel and granting Buyer’s legal counsel the opportunity to review and comment on the draft application, and will inform Buyer’s counsel of the content of any discussions and meetings relating thereto. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.09(a) above, if the 104(h) Tax Ruling shall be received and delivered to Buyer prior to the applicable withholding date, then the provisions of the 104(h) Tax Ruling shall apply and all applicable withholding and reporting procedures shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the 104(h) Tax Ruling and Section 104(h) of the Israeli Tax Code.

(g) In the event that a Seller (i) did not receive or elect to join the 104(h) Tax Ruling; and (ii) does not produce a Withholding Certificate or produces a Withholding Certificate that does not, to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction, exempt withholding in respect of such Seller portion of the consideration, and (iii) the price of the Buyer Common Stock falls below 50% of its price as of the Closing Date, Payor shall be entitled to sell any Buyer Common Stock allocable to such Seller in order to pay the full withholding Tax due in respect of the share portion of the consideration, including the shares deposited in the Indemnity Holdback Amount, where such withholding is based on the value of such shares not lower than their value on the Closing Date.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.10, any consideration which a holder of Company 102 Shares or Company 102 Options has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.2 in respect of such Company 102 Shares or Company 102 Options, shall be transferred (or caused to be transferred) by Buyer directly to the Section 102 Trustee (with respect to the Company 102 Shares and Company 102 Options), at the Closing (and with respect to any Company 102 Shares, pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2 above), in accordance with the Israeli 102 Tax Ruling (or the Israeli Section 102 Interim Tax Ruling, as applicable), if obtained, and shall be held in trust by the Section 102 Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Israeli Tax Code (including Section 102) and the Israeli 102 Tax Ruling (or the Israeli Section 102 Interim Tax Ruling, as applicable), if obtained. The Section 102 Trustee shall be responsible for holding such consideration, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 102 of the Israeli Tax Code (as applicable), the Israeli 102 Tax Ruling (or the Israeli Section 102 Interim Tax Ruling, as applicable) and the trust documents governing the trust held by the Section 102 Trustee.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.9, with respect to non-Israeli resident holders of Company Options, which were granted such options in

 

18


consideration for work or services performed outside of Israel for a non-Israeli resident subsidiary of the Company (and will provide Buyer with an appropriate executed declaration, to the full satisfaction of Buyer, regarding their non-Israeli residence and confirmation that they were granted such Company Options in consideration for work or services performed outside of Israel for a non-Israeli resident subsidiary of the Company, in a form agreed between the Company and the Buyer), the payment of any consideration which such holders have the right to receive shall not be subject to any withholding or deduction of Israeli Tax.

1.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the officers and directors of the Company are fully authorized, in the name and on behalf of the Company or otherwise, to take all lawful action necessary or desirable to accomplish such purpose or acts, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

2.1 Organization, Standing, Power and Subsidiaries.

(a) The Company and the US Subsidiary are corporations duly organized, validly existing and, if applicable, in good standing under the laws of their jurisdiction of organization. The Company and the US Subsidiary have the corporate power to own, operate and lease their properties and to conduct their respective business and are duly qualified to do business and, as applicable, are in good standing in each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate with any such other failures, could reasonably be expected to be material to the Company or the US Subsidiary. Except for the US Subsidiary, the Company has and, since its inception has had, no Subsidiaries or any equity or ownership interest, whether direct or indirect, in any Person. The Company is the owner of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the US Subsidiary, free and clear of all Encumbrances, and all such shares are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and are not subject to any preemptive right or right of first refusal created by Legal Requirements, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other equivalent organizational or governing documents, as applicable, of the US Subsidiary or any Contract to which the US Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound.

(a) The authorized share capital of the Company is NIS 145,334 divided into 10,266,733 Company Ordinary Shares and 4,266,733 Company Series A Preferred Shares. The Shares are the only shares of Company Capital Stock that are and will be issued and outstanding as of the Agreement Date and the Closing Date (except for such additional Company Ordinary Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Company Options outstanding as of the Agreement Date as set forth in Schedule 2.2(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter).

The number of such shares set forth as being so owned by such Person constitutes the entire interest of such person in the issued and outstanding capital stock or voting securities of the Company. All issued and outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, except as set forth in the Company Articles, are free of any Encumbrances, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or “put” or “call” rights created by statute or any Contract to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound. The Company has never declared or paid any dividends on any shares of Company Capital Stock. There is no Liability for dividends accrued and unpaid by the Company. Except as set forth in that certain Investor’s Rights Agreement dated as of August 30, 2012, by and among the Company and certain Company Stockholders, the Company is not under any obligation to register under the Securities Act any shares of Company Capital Stock or any other securities of the Company, whether currently outstanding or that may subsequently be issued. All issued and outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock and all Company Options were issued in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements and all requirements set forth in applicable Contracts.

(b) As of the Agreement Date, the Company has reserved 2,000,000 Company Ordinary Shares for issuance to employees, non-employee directors and consultants pursuant to the Company Equity Plan, of which 164,000 shares are subject to outstanding and unexercised Company Options, and 1,836,000 shares remain available for issuance thereunder.

(b) Certain Transfers Void. Any transfer of the shares of Buyer Common Stock shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement and any other applicable Contract between Buyer (or its Affiliates) and the Founder Seller are satisfied. Buyer may issue appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent. If any securities are sold or otherwise transferred in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or any other applicable Contract between Buyer (or its Affiliates) and the Founder Seller, Buyer will not be required (i) to transfer on the books maintained by its transfer agent such transferred securities or (ii) to treat the Seller or any transferee of such securities as owner of such securities, or to accord such Seller or any transferee of the securities the right to vote or receive dividends.

NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.

(2) THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

(3) THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) WITH THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE ISSUER DOES NOT INTEND TO REGISTER THEM. PRIOR TO ONE YEAR (OR SIX MONTHS IF THE COMPANY IS A “REPORTING ISSUER” AS DEFINED IN RULE 902(i) OF REGULATION S FOR SUCH PERIOD) FROM THE DATE THE SHARES WERE INITIALLY ISSUED BY THE ISSUER THE SHARES MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD (INCLUDING OPENING A SHORT POSITION IN SUCH SECURITIES) IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. PERSONS AS DEFINED BY RULE 902(k) ADOPTED UNDER THE ACT, OTHER THAN TO DISTRIBUTORS, UNLESS THE SHARES ARE REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT, OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT IS AVAILABLE. PURCHASERS OF SHARES PRIOR TO ONE YEAR (OR SIX MONTHS IF THE COMPANY IS A “REPORTING ISSUER” AS DEFINED IN RULE 902(i) OF REGULATION S FOR SUCH PERIOD) FROM THE CLOSING DATE MAY RESELL SUCH SECURITIES ONLY PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT OR OTHERWISE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S OF THE ACT, OR IN TRANSACTIONS EFFECTED OUTSIDE

6.13 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) At the Closing, Buyer will holdback the Indemnity Holdback Amount (such holdback of shares of Buyer Common Stock, the “Holdback Fund”), with such Holdback Fund to be available to compensate Buyer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person (as such term is defined in Section 9.2 below)) for Indemnifiable Damages (as such term is defined in Section 9.2 below) pursuant to the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Parties (as defined below); it being understood that any shares not subject to forfeiture that would be issuable

 

67


to a Founder Seller under Section 1.2(c), up to such Founder Seller Pro-Rata Share of the Indemnity Holdback Amount, shall first be allocated to the Holdback Fund prior to being allocated to shares to be issued to such Founder Seller pursuant thereto. With respect to each Non-Founder Seller, Buyer shall retain such Non-Founder Seller’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Fund until 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on the date that is twenty four (24) months after the Closing Date (the “Non-Founder Seller Holdback Release Date”), and with respect to each Founder Seller, Buyer shall retain such Founder Seller’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Fund until the earlier date to occur (the “Founder Seller Holdback Release Date” and, together with the Non-Founder Seller Holdback Release Date, each a “Holdback Release Date”) of (i) the Initial Release Date (as defined in the Founder Stock Restriction Agreement), but only if the Israeli income tax due date for the consideration received by the Seller Founders in connection with the Share Exchange is earlier than the Non-Founder Seller Holdback Release Date, or (ii) the Non-Founder Seller Holdback Release Date. Except to the extent there is a cancellation of shares of Buyer Common Stock held in the Holdback Fund in connection with Indemnifiable Damages in accordance with the terms hereof, shares of Buyer Common Stock held in the Holdback Fund shall be treated by the Buyer as issued and outstanding stock of Buyer, and the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to all rights associated with such Buyer Common Stock including to exercise voting rights and to receive dividends with respect to such shares. No portion (nor all) of the Holdback Fund, nor any beneficial interest therein, may be pledged, subjected to any Encumbrance, sold, assigned or transferred, by any Indemnifying Party, or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other Liability of any Indemnifying Party, in each case prior to the disbursement of the Holdback Fund to any Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.1(b) below, except that each Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assign such Indemnifying Party’s rights to the shares of Buyer Common Stock withheld in the Holdback Fund (the “Holdback Shares”) by will, by the laws of intestacy, by other operation of law.

(b) As soon as practicable and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days following the applicable Holdback Release Date, Buyer will disburse to the Escrow Agent on behalf of each applicable Indemnifying Party such Indemnifying Party’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Fund less (i) that portion of the Holdback Fund previously forfeited to Buyer in satisfaction of claims for indemnification in accordance with this ARTICLE 9, if any and (ii) that portion of the Holdback Fund that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer (acting in good faith and based on facts and circumstances existing at the time), to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or disputed claims for indemnification specified in any Claim Certificate (as defined in, and pursuant to the requirements of, Section 9.5 below) delivered to the Sellers’ Representative prior to such Holdback Release Date in accordance with this ARTICLE 9, if any. Any portion of the Holdback Fund held following an applicable Holdback Release Date with respect to pending but unresolved claims for indemnification that is not awarded to Buyer upon the resolution of such claims shall be disbursed to the Escrow Agent on behalf of the applicable Indemnifying Parties as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days following resolution of such claims and in accordance with each such applicable Indemnifying Party’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Fund.

(c) The per share value of any shares of Buyer Common Stock used to satisfy any Indemnifiable Damages under this ARTICLE 9 shall be the Buyer Stock Price Per Share. The shares of Buyer Common stock contributed to the Holdback Fund by the Founder Sellers and used to satisfy any Indemnifiable Damages under this ARTICLE 9 shall be comprised of shares released from repurchase rights to the extent possible and shares subject to repurchase rights once all shares released form repurchase rights have been depleted to satisfy any Indemnifiable Damages.

(d) Without derogating from Section 1.10 and Article 9, the parties acknowledge, as of the date hereof, to treat and report for Tax purposes the Indemnity Holdback Amount as a part of the aggregate consideration payable to each Indemnifying Party, in connection with his shares of Company Capital Stock, and the Indemnity Holdback Amount payable pursuant to Section 9.1 above does not constitute compensation or deemed compensation for any services rendered or to be rendered at any time by any Indemnifying Party.

 

68


9.2 Indemnification. Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 9, from and after the Closing Date, the Sellers (the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall severally and not jointly, in proportion to each such Indemnifying Party’s Indemnity Pro Rata Share, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates (each of the foregoing being referred to individually as an “Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all losses, Liabilities, damages, fees, Taxes, interest, costs and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation and defense and reasonable fees and expenses of lawyers, experts and other professionals, whether or not due to a third-party claim, actually suffered or incurred (collectively, “Indemnifiable Damages”), in each case, to the extent resulting from (a) any failure of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or the Company Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit or schedule to the Company Disclosure Letter) to be true and correct as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing Date as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date (except in the case of representations and warranties which by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date), (b) any failure of any certification, representation or warranty made by the Company in any certificate (other than the Spreadsheet) required to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to any provision of this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date such certificate is delivered to Buyer, (c) any breach of or any of the covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or any certificate delivered by the Company contemplated by the Agreement, (d) any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet, (e) any Pre-Closing Taxes, and (f) with respect to any Seller separately, any failure of any representation or warranty made by such Seller in Sections 3.1-3.3 (the “Seller Representations”). Materiality standards or qualifications, and qualifications by reference to the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in any representation, warranty or covenant shall only be taken into account in determining whether a breach of or default in connection with such representation, warranty or covenant (or failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct) exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such breach, default or failure to be true and correct. The Indemnifying Parties shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from the Company, the US Subsidiary or Buyer with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by an Indemnified Person. Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 9, in the event that Indemnifiable Damages with respect to Fundamental Claims (as defined below) or IP Claims (as defined below) exceed the amount of the Holdback Fund, the balance of such Indemnifiable Damages in excess of the Holdback Fund (if any) shall be borne by the Indemnifying Parties, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (it being understood that recourse shall be made first with the Holdback Fund in accordance with their Indemnity Pro Rata Share and with respect to the Founder Sellers recourse from the Aggregate Founder Seller Cash Amount shall be last).

The availability of the Holdback Fund to indemnify the Indemnified Persons will be determined without regard to any right to indemnification that any Indemnifying Party may have in his or her capacity as an officer, director, employee, or agent of the Company and no such Indemnifying Party will be entitled to any indemnification from the Company, the Company or the US Subsidiary for amounts paid for indemnification under this ARTICLE 9; provided, however, that the parties agree that the provisions set forth in this Section 9.4 shall in no way be interpreted to invalidate, or otherwise impair, the rights of any Company director or officer to seek indemnification pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 6.14 hereof, other than to the extent in derogation of such Indemnifying Parties indemnity obligations to the Indemnified Persons under this ARTICLE 9.

9.5 Claims.

(a) On or before the last day of the Claims Period, Buyer may deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a certificate signed by any officer of Buyer (a “Claim Certificate”):

(i) stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, or in good faith determines that it is reasonably likely to incur, pay, reserve or accrue, Indemnifiable Damages (or that with respect to any Tax matters, that any Tax Authority is reasonably likely to raise such matter in audit of Buyer or its subsidiaries, which is reasonably likely to give rise to Indemnifiable Damages);

(ii) stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount determined by Buyer (acting in good faith and based on facts and circumstances existing at the time) to be reasonably likely to incurred, paid, reserved or accrued); and

(iii) specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Buyer) the individual items of such Indemnifiable Damages included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Indemnifiable Damages are related.

No delay in providing such Claim Certificate within the Claims Period shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Sellers’ Representative or the Indemnifying Parties are materially prejudiced thereby. At the time of delivery of any Claim Certificate to the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to Section 9.5(a), a duplicate copy of such Claim Certificate shall be delivered to Buyer by or on behalf of Buyer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person).

 

72

(a) Uncontested Claims. If the Sellers’ Representative does not contest, by written notice to Buyer, any claim or claims by Buyer made in any Claim Certificate within the thirty (30)-day period following receipt of the Claim Certificate, then the Seller’s Representative will be conclusively deemed to have consented, on behalf of all Indemnifying Parties, to the recovery by the Indemnified Person of the full amount of the Indemnifiable Damages specified in the Claim Certificate, including the forfeiture of such portion of the Holdback Fund sufficient to satisfy such Indemnifiable Damages; provided, that, the per share value of any shares of Buyer Common Stock used to satisfy any Claims under this ARTICLE 9 shall be the Buyer Price Per Share.

75


any such Third Party Claim.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law. Any dispute with regard to or arising under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be resolved by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator reasonably mutually acceptable to the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative; provided that in the absence of agreement by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative in this regard, the arbitrator will be appointed by Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services/EnDispute (or its successor) (“JAMS”) in accordance with its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”). The decision of the arbitrator shall be nonappealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration will be held in Santa Clara County, California under the Arbitration Rules, as such rules will be in effect on the Closing Date, except to the extent that such rules are inconsistent with this Section 10.10(a), in which case this Section 10.10(a) will govern. The parties hereby agree that the Expedited Procedures set forth in Sections 16.1 and 16.2 of the Arbitration Rules shall be employed; that direct examination and cross examinations may be conducted by video conference where issues of scheduling and travel time and costs preclude a witness from appearing in person in Santa Clara; that a stenographic record of the evidentiary phase of the arbitration will be kept and that the parties will split the costs thereof subject to the arbitrator’s order for costs at the conclusion of the arbitration. Except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein, the burden of proof in the arbitration will be as it would be if the claim were litigated in a judicial proceeding governed exclusively by the internal laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed, entered into and performed within the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of choice of law or conflicts of law of any jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision
