From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and Company will continue as the surviving corporation. Company as the surviving corporation after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”

Section 1.02 Closing; Effective Time. Unless this Agreement has been terminated and the Transactions herein contemplated have been abandoned pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI of this Agreement, the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Haynes and Boone, LLP, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, 26^th Floor, New York, NY 10112, at 10:00 a.m. on a date to be specified by the Parties which will be no later than three Business Days after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each such conditions), or at such other time, date and place as Parent and Company may mutually agree in writing. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date”. On the Closing Date, the Parties will cause the Merger to be consummated by executing and filing a Certificate of Merger in accordance with the relevant provisions of Delaware Law (the “Certificate of Merger”), in a form mutually acceptable to Parent and Company, together with any required related certificates, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in such form as required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of Delaware Law. The Merger will become effective at the time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time as may be specified in such Certificate of Merger with the consent of Parent and Company (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.03 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger will be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company will vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of Company will become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.04 Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws; Reverse Split; Parent Name Change. Unless otherwise determined by Parent and Company:

(a) the certificate of incorporation of Company will be amended and restated at the Effective Time to (i) cause its name to be changed to Firefly Neurosciences 2023 Inc. and (ii) read in its entirety as subsequently agreed to as set forth in a form mutually acceptable to Parent and Company, and, as so amended and restated, will be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Law and such certificate of incorporation;

(b) the bylaws of Company will be amended and restated to read in the form of the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect on the date hereof and, as so amended and restated, will be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Law, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such bylaws; and

(c) immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent will amend and restate its certificate of incorporation and take all other actions necessary to (i) cause its name to be changed to Firefly Neurosciences Inc., and (ii) effect the Reverse Split to the extent applicable.

Section 1.05 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation and Parent. Unless otherwise determined by Parent and Company, the parties will take all action such that:

(a) unless otherwise determined by Company prior to the Effective Time, the directors of Company immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time until such time as their respective successors are duly elected or appointed;

(b) unless otherwise determined by Company prior to the Effective Time, the officers of Company immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time until such time as their respective successors are duly elected or appointed; and

(c) the directors and officers of Parent immediately following the Effective Time shall be elected and appointed in accordance with Section 5.11.

Section 1.06 Conversion of Company Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, Company, any stockholder of Company or any other Person:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to, and contingent upon the occurrence of, the Effective Time (excluding any shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.06(c)) will be converted into and represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration. “Merger Consideration” means (i) a number of shares of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of Parent, par value of $0.001 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), equal to the Exchange Ratio, with any resulting fractional shares to be rounded to the nearest whole share.

(b) Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of Merger Sub Common Stock then outstanding will be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares will, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Cancellation. Each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of Company and each share of Company Common Stock owned by Parent or by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Company or Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to be outstanding, be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and without payment of any consideration therefor and cease to exist.

(d) Company Options. Each Company Option under the Company Option Plan that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be subject to Section 5.16. Prior to the Closing Date, and subject to the review and approval of Parent, Company will take all actions necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.06(d) under applicable Legal Requirements and all such Company Options, including delivering all notices required thereby and, if required, entering into termination agreements with the holders of such Company Options. In addition, promptly after the date of this Agreement, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days before the Effective Time, and subject to the review and approval of Parent, Company shall deliver notice to all holders of Company Options setting forth such holders’ rights pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, and any fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole share. Company Stockholders will not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of Parent with respect to any such fraction of a share that would have otherwise been issued to such Company Stockholder.

(f) Restrictions. If any shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other Contract with Company or under which Company has any rights, then the shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange for such shares of Company Common Stock, subject to Section 5.16, will also be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition, and the book-entry representing such shares of Parent Common Stock may accordingly be marked with appropriate legends. Company will take all action that may be necessary to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, Parent is entitled to exercise any such repurchase option or other right set forth in any such restricted stock purchase agreement or other Contract.

Section 1.07 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent will select Parent’s transfer agent or another reputable bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Company to act as exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent will issue and cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent non-certificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by book-entry issuable pursuant to Section 1.06(a). The shares of Parent Common Stock so deposited with the Exchange Agent, together with any dividends or distributions received by the Exchange Agent with respect to such shares, are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Exchange Agent to mail to the record holders of Company Stock Certificates (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions on which Parent and Company may mutually agree (and which will include a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates will be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates in exchange for non-certificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by book-entry issuable pursuant to Section 1.06(a). Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other customary documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent, (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor non-certificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by book-entry (via DRS) equal to the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.06(a), and (B) the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered will be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.07(b), each Company Stock Certificate held by a Company Stockholder will be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration. If any Company Stock Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the Merger until such holder surrenders such Company Stock Certificate in accordance with this Section 1.07 (at which time such holder will be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable escheat or similar laws, to receive all such dividends and distributions, without interest).

(d) Transfers of Ownership. If any shares of Parent Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Company Stock Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any Person designated by it any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of the shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Stock Certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e) Unclaimed Portion of the Exchange Fund.

(i)

Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Stock Certificates as of the date 180 days after the date on which the Merger becomes effective will be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Stock Certificates who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.07 will thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for Parent Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock.

(ii)

Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation will be liable to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock or to any other Person with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Legal Requirement.

(f) Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid to the appropriate Governmental Body, such amounts will be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

Section 1.08 Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be canceled and retired and cease to exist, and all holders of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to have any rights as stockholders of Company; and (b) the stock transfer books of Company will be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company Common Stock will be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock (a “Company Stock Certificate”) is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate will be canceled and exchanged as provided in Section 1.06 and Section 1.07.

Section 1.09 No Further Rights. The Merger Consideration delivered upon the surrender for exchange of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares.

Section 1.10 Tax Consequences. For United States federal income Tax purposes, the Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) of the Treasury Regulations, and will report consistently with the foregoing, including by filing the statement required by Section 1.368-3(a) of the Treasury Regulation

Section 1.11 Additional Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary, desirable or proper to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and its proper officers and directors or their designees are fully authorized (to the fullest extent allowed under applicable Legal Requirements) to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either Company or Merger Sub, all deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and do, in the name and on behalf of Company or Merger Sub, all other acts and things necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

With respect to each material Parent Employee Plan, Parent has made available to Company, accurate and complete copies of the following documents: (i) the plan document and any related trust agreement, including amendments thereto; (ii) any current summary plan descriptions and other material communications to participants relating to the plan; (iii) each plan trust, insurance, annuity or other funding contract or service provider agreement related thereto; (iv) the most recent plan financial statements and actuarial or other valuation reports prepared with respect thereto, if any; (v) the most recent IRS determination or opinion letter, if any; (vi) copies of the most recent plan year nondiscrimination and coverage testing results for each plan subject to such testing requirements; and (vii) the most recent annual reports (Form 5500) and all schedules attached thereto for each Parent Employee Plan that is subject to ERISA and Code reporting requirements.

No Acquiring Company is in material default under or material violation of, and have no knowledge of any material defaults or material violations by any other party to, any of Parent Employee Plans. All contributions required to be made by any Acquiring Company or any their ERISA Affiliates to any Parent Employee Plan have been timely paid or accrued on the most recent Parent Financials on file with the SEC, if required under GAAP. Any Parent Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has either obtained from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable determination letter or opinion letter as to its qualified status under the Code, and to the knowledge of Parent, no event has occurred and no condition exists with respect to the form or operation of such Parent Employee Plan that would cause the loss of such qualification.

(c) No Parent Employee Plan provides retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person, except as required by COBRA. No suit, administrative proceeding or action has been brought, or to the knowledge of Parent, is threatened against or with respect to any such Parent Employee Plan, including any audit or inquiry by the Internal Revenue Service or the United States Department of Labor (other than routine claims for benefits arising under such plans).

(d) No Acquiring Company nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has, during the past six (6) years from the date hereof, maintained, established, sponsored, participated in or contributed to, or is obligated to contribute to, or otherwise incurred any obligation or liability (including any contingent liability) under, any “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA) or any “pension plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. No Acquiring Company nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has, as of the date of this Agreement, any actual or potential withdrawal liability (including any contingent liability) for any complete or partial withdrawal (as defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA) from any multiemployer plan.

No benefit payable or that may become payable by an Acquiring Company pursuant to any Parent Employee Plan in connection with the Transactions will constitute an “excess parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) subject to the imposition of an excise Tax under Section 4999 of the Code or the deduction for which would be disallowed by reason of Section 280G of the Code.

(b) Parent covenants and agrees that the S-4 Registration Statement and Proxy Statement/Prospectus, including any pro forma financial statements included therein (and the letter to stockholders, notice of meeting and form of proxy included therewith), will not, at the time that the S-4 Registration Statement and Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto is filed with the SEC or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus is first mailed to the stockholders of Parent, at the time of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting and at the Effective Time contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Company represents, covenants and agrees that the information provided by Company or its Subsidiaries to Parent for inclusion in the S-4 Registration Statement and/or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (including the Company Financials) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make such information and the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent makes no covenant, representation or warranty with respect to statements made in the S-4 Registration Statement or Proxy Statement/Prospectus (and the letter to stockholders, notice of meeting and form of proxy included therewith), if any, based on information furnished in writing by Company specifically for inclusion therein. Company and its legal counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the S-4 Registration Statement, including all amendments and supplements thereto, prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and on the response to any comments from the SEC prior to the filing thereof with the SEC. Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the S-4 Registration Statement and Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply with the applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff. Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) the S-4 Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible, and (ii) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to Parent’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the SEC declares the S-4 Registration Statement to be effective. Each Party shall promptly furnish to the other Party all information concerning such Party and such Party’s Subsidiaries and such Party’s stockholders that may be required or reasonably requested in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 5.01. If any event relating to Parent or Company occurs, or if Parent or Company becomes aware of any information, that, pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the S-4 Registration Statement and/or Proxy Statement/Prospectus, then Parent or Company, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other party thereof and shall cooperate with one another in filing such amendment or supplement with the SEC and, if appropriate, in mailing such amendment or supplement to Parent’s stockholders. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the S-4 Registration Statement and/or Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be made by Parent without the prior written Consent of Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) Company shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and provide, and cause its Representatives, advisors, accountants and attorneys to provide, Parent and its Representatives, advisors, accountants and attorneys, with all true, correct and complete information regarding Company that is required by law to be included in the S-4 Registration Statement and/or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or reasonably requested from Company to be included in the S-4 Registration Statement and/or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The information provided by the Company to be included in the S-4 Registration Statement and/or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Section 5.02 Company Stockholder Written Consent.

(a) As promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days, following the date that the S-4 Registration Statement is declared effective (the “Company Vote Deadline”), Company shall obtain the approval by written Consent in lieu of a meeting pursuant to Delaware Law from holders of a number of shares of Company Common Stock a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (“Company Stockholder Written Consent”) for purposes of (i) adopting this Agreement and the Company Documents and approving the Merger, and all other Transactions (ii) acknowledging that the approval given thereby is irrevocable and that such Company Stockholder is aware of its rights to demand appraisal for its shares pursuant to Delaware Law, a copy of which will be provided to the Company Stockholders, and that such Company Stockholder has received and read a copy of the applicable provisions of Delaware Law, and (iii) acknowledging that by its approval of the Merger it is not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to its shares in connection with the Merger and thereby waives any rights to receive payment of the fair value of its Company Common Stock under Delaware Law (collectively, the “Company Stockholder Matters”). Under no circumstances shall Company assert that any other approval or Consent is necessary by its stockholders to approve this Agreement and the Transactions.

(b) Company agrees that: (i) the Company Board shall recommend that the holders of Company Common Stock vote (by providing their written Consent) to approve the Company Stockholder Matters and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit such approval within the timeframe set forth in Section 5.02(a) above (the recommendation of the Company Board that Company Stockholders vote to approve the Company Stockholder Matters being referred to as the “Company Board Recommendation”); and (ii) the Company Board Recommendation shall not be withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Parent, and no resolution by the Company Board or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent shall be adopted or proposed.

(c) The Company shall promptly provide written notice of the Company Stockholder Written Consent to all of the Company stockholders who did not execute the Company Stockholder Written Consent, in accordance with Section 228(e) of the DGCL.

Section 5.03 Parent Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) Parent shall (i) take all action necessary under applicable Legal Requirements to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of Parent Common Stock (such meeting, the “Parent Stockholders’ Meeting”) to vote on the approval of this Agreement and the Parent Documents and the Transactions, including the issuance of Parent Common Stock in the Merger, the Parent Charter Amendment, including for purposes of effectuating the Reverse Split, the Tellenger Sale and the Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Parent Stockholder Approval Matters”) and (ii) mail to Parent Stockholders as of the record date established for the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, the S-4 Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The Parent Stockholders’ Meeting shall be held as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 45 days, following the date that SEC declares the S-4 Registration Statement to be effective. Parent shall take reasonable measures to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on any date on or before the date on which the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting is scheduled, Parent reasonably believes that (A) it will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum would be present or (B) it will not have sufficient shares of Parent Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, Parent may, in its sole discretion, postpone or adjourn, or make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of, the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting as long as the date of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting is not postponed or adjourned more than an aggregate of 60 calendar days in connection with any postponements or adjournments in reliance on the preceding sentence.

(b) Parent agrees that, subject to Section 5.03(c): (i) the Parent Board shall recommend that the holders of Parent Common Stock vote to approve the Parent Stockholder Approval Matters and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit such approval within the timeframe set forth in Section 5.03(a) above; (ii) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include a statement to the effect that the Parent Board recommends that Parent’s stockholders vote to approve the Parent Stockholder Approval Matters (the recommendation of the Parent Board that Parent’s stockholders vote to approve the Parent Stockholder Approval Matters being referred to as the “Parent Board Recommendation”); (iii) the Parent Board Recommendation shall not be withheld, amended, withdrawn or modified (and the Parent Board shall not, except to the extent required by applicable law, publicly propose to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation) in a manner adverse to Company, and no resolution by the Parent Board or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Company shall be adopted or proposed; and (iv) Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from its stockholders the Parent Stockholder Approval, including by soliciting proxies in favor thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.03(b), and subject to compliance with Section 5.13, at any time prior to the approval of the Parent Stockholder Approval Matters by the Parent Stockholder Approval, the Parent Board Recommendation may be withdrawn or modified (a “Parent Change in Recommendation”) if the Parent Board concludes in good faith, after having consulted with Parent’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that as a result of Parent’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a violation of Section 5.13 and which constitutes a Superior Offer, the withdrawal or modification of the Parent Board Recommendation is required in order for the Parent Board to comply with its fiduciary obligations to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; provided, however, that prior to Parent taking any action permitted under this Section 5.03(c), Parent shall (i) provide Company with four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice advising Company that it intends to effect such Parent Change in Recommendation and specifying, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor (including, in the case of an Acquisition Proposal, the information required by Section 5.13(b)), (ii) during such four (4) Business Day period, negotiate, and cause its Representatives to negotiate, with Company in good faith (to the extent Company wishes to negotiate) to enable Company to determine whether to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that it would obviate the need for the Parent Board to effect such withdrawal or modification, and (iii) consider in good faith any proposal by Company to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a manner that would obviate the need to effect such Parent Change in Recommendation.

(d) Notwithstanding the occurrence of any Parent Change in Recommendation, Parent shall nonetheless submit this Agreement to the Parent Stockholders for adoption at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article IV prior to the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent or the Parent Board from (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of Parent a position as contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act (other than Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) or (ii) making a “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of Parent pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, in each case provided Parent has otherwise complied with the terms of this Section 5.03, provided, however, that any disclosure made by Parent or the Parent Board pursuant to Rules 14d-9 or 14e-2(a) will be limited to a statement that Parent is unable to take a position with respect to the bidder’s tender offer unless the Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that such statement would result in a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable Legal Requirements; provided, further, that (A) in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), any such disclosure or public statement shall be deemed to be a Parent Change in Recommendation subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement unless the Parent Board reaffirms the Parent Board Recommendation in such disclosure or public statement; and (B) Parent shall not affect a Parent Change in Recommendation unless specifically permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 5.03(c).

Section 5.04 Access to Information; Confidentiality. During the Pre-Closing Period, and upon reasonable notice and subject to restrictions contained in confidentiality agreements to which such party is subject, Company and Parent will each (a) afford to the other Party, along with such Party’s officers, employees, accountants, counsel and other Representatives, reasonable access during normal business hours to all of its personnel, properties, assets, books, contracts, commitments and records (including, without limitation, Tax records), (b) furnish promptly to the other Party all information concerning its business, properties, assets, personnel, commitments and records, as such other Party may reasonably request, and (c) will make available to the other the appropriate individuals (including attorneys, accountants and other professionals) for discussion of the other’s business, properties, assets, personnel, commitments and records as either Party may reasonably request; provided, that each of Company and Parent reserves the right to withhold any information if access to such information would be reasonably likely to result in any such Party forfeiting attorney-client privilege between it and its counsel with respect to such information, in which event such Party shall cause such information to be delivered in a form or summary, including any redactions that may be necessary, so as to provide as much requested information as reasonably practicable while retaining such privilege. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Pre-Closing Period, Company and Parent will promptly provide the other Party with copies of: (i) all material operating and financial reports prepared by Company or Parent (or their respective Representatives), as applicable, for such Party’s senior management, including copies of any sales forecasts, marketing plans, development plans, discount reports, write-off reports, hiring reports and capital expenditure reports; (ii) any written materials or communications sent by or on behalf of such Party to its stockholders; (iii) any material notice, document or other communication sent by or on behalf of any of such Party to any third party to any Company Contract or Parent Contract, as applicable, or sent to Company or Parent by any third party to any Company Contract or Parent Contract, as applicable, (other than any communication that relates solely to routine commercial transactions and that is of the type sent in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices); (iv) any notice, report or other document filed with or sent to any Governmental Body in connection with the Merger or any of the other Transactions; and (v) any material notice, report or other document received from any Governmental Body. Each Party will keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of the currently effective confidentiality agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) between Parent and Company; provided, that each of Company and Parent may make disclosure of such information to its stockholders or other third parties as may be reasonably necessary to enable Company or Parent, as applicable, to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation under Section 5.02 or Section 5.03 hereof.

Company directors, any Parent director and any Company officers who become directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation and Parent will enter into Parent’s standard indemnification agreement, which will be in addition to any other contractual rights to indemnification. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation will contain provisions at least as favorable as the provisions relating to the indemnification and elimination of liability for monetary damages set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Company, and the provisions relating to the indemnification and elimination of liability for monetary damages set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and Parent will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, at the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees or agents of Company or Parent, unless such modification is required by Legal Requirements.

Section 5.07 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Company will give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent will give prompt notice to Company, of (i) the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of which would be reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a), as applicable, would fail to be satisfied as of the Closing; (ii) any failure of Company or Parent, as the case may be, to materially comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.02(b) or Section 6.03(b), as applicable, would fail to be satisfied as of the Closing and (iii) whether any holder of shares of Parent Common Stock or any security or other right convertible into or exercisable for shares of Parent Common Stock has made any demand or request for the repurchase of any such share, security or right; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.07 will not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the Party receiving such notice; provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt, that such notice shall not act as a supplement or amendment to the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule for the purpose of (x) determining the accuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by either Party in this Agreement, or (y) determining whether any condition set forth in Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a) has been satisfied.

(b) Each of Company and Parent will give prompt notice to the other of: (i) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the Consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or other Transactions; (ii) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Body in connection with the Merger or other Transactions; (iii) any litigation relating to or involving or otherwise affecting Company or Parent that relates to the Merger or other Transactions; (iv) the occurrence of a default or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, will become a default under a Company or a Parent Contract; and (v) any change that would be considered reasonably likely to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.09 Public Announcements. Parent and Company will consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the Transactions or this Agreement and will not issue any such press release or make any disclosure (to any customers or employees of such Party, to the public or otherwise) regarding this Agreement and/or the Transactions without the prior Consent of the other party, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that, on the advice of legal counsel, Parent may comply with any SEC requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act which requires any disclosure, without the Consent or review of Company.

Prior to the mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Parent shall provide executed resignation letters (effective as of the Effective Time) for all members of the board of directors who will no longer be members of the Parent Board effective immediately after the Effective Time; provided, however, the Parties acknowledge that so long as Parent remains a public reporting company, the Parent Board will continue to satisfy all applicable Legal Requirements with respect to membership and composition, including, without limitation, maintaining an independent audit committee, and the nominations by Company and Parent hereunder will allow Parent to comply with such applicable Legal Requirements. Each new member of the Parent Board that was not a member of the Parent Board immediately before the Effective Time shall enter into an indemnification agreement with Parent, in a form mutually acceptable to Parent and Company (and absent such agreement, on Parent’s form indemnification agreement), within fifteen (15) days of their appointment. The officers of Parent following the Effective Time will be elected by the Parent Board immediately following the Effective Time.

Section 5.12 Non-Solicitation by Company.

(a) Beginning on the date hereof and continuing until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VII, Company will not and will not authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any Representative of Company or its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to, (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage, induce or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of any Acquisition Proposal or take any action that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish any nonpublic information regarding Company or its Subsidiaries to any Person in connection with or in response to an Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry or indication of interest that could lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or (v) enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any agreement contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction.

Company will keep Parent informed on a prompt basis in all material respects with respect to the status of any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, indication of interest or request and any modification or proposed modification thereto and shall deliver copies of any written material submitted therewith.

(c) Company will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions with any Person that relate to any Acquisition Proposal and will promptly request from each Person that has executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of making an Acquisition Proposal prior to the date hereof to return or destroy (as provided in the terms of such confidentiality agreement) all confidential information concerning Parent, Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries and promptly terminate all physical and electronic data access previously granted to such Person.

Section 5.13 Non-Solicitation by Parent.

(a) Beginning on the date hereof and continuing until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VII, Parent will not and will not authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any Representative of Parent or its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage, induce or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of any Acquisition Proposal or take any action that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) furnish any nonpublic information regarding Parent or its Subsidiaries to any Person in connection with or in response to an Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry or indication of interest that could lead to an Acquisition Proposal; (iii) engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal; (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or (v) enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any agreement contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction (other than an Acceptable Parent Confidentiality Agreement); provided, however, that prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Parent Stockholder Approval, this Section 5.13(a) will not prohibit Parent from furnishing nonpublic information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries to, entering into discussions with, any Person in response to any bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that, after consultation with a financial advisor and outside legal counsel, the Parent Board determines in good faith is, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a Superior Offer (and is not withdrawn) if (1) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of this Section 5.13(a); (2) the Parent Board concludes in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of its outside legal counsel, that, in light of such Acquisition Proposal and the terms of this Agreement, failure to take such action would result in a breach of its fiduciary obligations to Parent’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; (3) at least two (2) Business Days prior to furnishing any such information to, or entering into discussions with, such Person, Parent gives Company written notice of the identity of such Person, the terms and conditions of any proposals or offers (including, if applicable, copies of any written requests, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements) made thereby and of Parent’s intention to furnish information to, or enter into discussions with, such Person, and Parent receives from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement on terms no less favorable to Parent than the confidentiality agreement between Parent and Company and containing customary limitations on the use and disclosure of all nonpublic written and oral information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of Parent as well as customary “standstill” provisions (an “Accepted Confidentiality Agreement”), and (4) substantially contemporaneous with furnishing any such information to such Person, Parent furnishes such nonpublic information to Company (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously furnished by Parent to Company). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent acknowledges and agrees that in the event any Representative of Parent (or its Subsidiaries), whether or not such Representative is purporting to act on behalf of Parent (or its Subsidiaries), takes any action that, if taken by Parent (or its Subsidiaries), would constitute a breach of this Section 5.13, the taking of such action by such Representative will be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 5.13 by Parent for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Parent will promptly (and in no event later than 48 hours after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, any inquiry or indication of interest that could lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information) advise Company orally and in writing of any Acquisition Proposal, any inquiry or indication of interest that could lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information relating to Parent or its Subsidiaries (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, indication of interest or request, the material terms thereof and copies of any written material submitted therewith) that is made or submitted by any Person during the Pre-Closing Period. Parent will keep Company informed on a prompt basis in all material respects with respect to the status of any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, indication of interest or request and any modification or proposed modification thereto and shall deliver copies of any written material submitted therewith.

(c) Parent will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions with any Person that relate to any Acquisition Proposal and will promptly request from each Person that has executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of making an Acquisition Proposal prior to the date hereof to return or destroy (as provided in the terms of such confidentiality agreement) all confidential information concerning Parent, Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries and promptly terminate all physical and electronic data access previously granted to such Person.

Section 5.14 Section 16 Matters. Subject to the following sentence, prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Company will take all such steps as may be required (to the extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements and no-action letters issued by the SEC) to cause any acquisition of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) by each individual who is or will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. At least thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, Company will furnish the following information to Parent for each individual who, immediately after the Effective Time, will become subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Parent: (a) the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by such individual and expected to be exchanged for shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger and (b) the number of other derivative securities (if any) with respect to Company Common Stock held by such individual and expected to be converted into shares of Parent Common Stock or derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

Section 5.15 Parent Charter Amendment. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent will file the Parent Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to become effective immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 5.16 Company Options; Restricted Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time under the Company Option Plan, whether or not vested, will be converted into and become an option to purchase Parent Common Stock (each, an “Assumed Option”), and Parent shall assume the Company Option Plan and the terms of the stock option agreement by which such Company Option is evidenced (but with changes to such documents as Parent and Company mutually agree are appropriate to reflect the substitution of the Company Options by Parent to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock). All rights with respect to Company Common Stock under Company Options assumed by Parent will thereupon be converted into rights with respect to Parent Common Stock. Accordingly, from and after the Effective Time: (i) each Company Option assumed by Parent may be exercised solely for shares of Parent Common Stock; (ii) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Company Option assumed by Parent will be determined by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to such Company Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock; (iii) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Company Option assumed by Parent will be determined by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Exchange Ratio and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent; and (iv) any restriction on the exercise of any Company Option assumed by Parent will continue in full force and effect, and the term, exercisability, method of exercise, vesting schedule, and other provisions of such Company Option will otherwise remain unchanged; provided, however, that: (1) to the extent provided under the terms of a Company Option, such Company Option assumed by Parent in accordance with this Section 5.16(a) will, in accordance with its terms, be subject to further adjustment as appropriate to reflect any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction with respect to Parent Common Stock subsequent to the Effective Time; and (2) the Parent Board or a committee thereof will succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to each Company Option assumed by Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.16(a), the conversion of each Company Option (regardless of whether such option qualifies as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) into an option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock will be made in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1, such that the conversion of a Company Option will not constitute a “modification” of such Company Option for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code. It is the intention of the parties that each Company Option so assumed by Parent shall qualify following the Effective Time as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code and to the extent such Company Option qualified as an incentive stock option prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Parent shall file with the SEC, promptly after the Effective Time, a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or alternative form), relating to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to Company Options or Company Restricted Shares assumed by Parent in accordance with this Section 5.16.

At the Effective Time, each Parent Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall survive the Closing and remain outstanding in accordance with its terms.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall cause all issued and outstanding Parent Preferred Stock, if any, to be converted, redeemed, exchanged, cancelled or retired such that, as of the Effective Time, there is no Parent Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.

(c) Parent will prepare and deliver to Company at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of Parent in a form reasonably acceptable to Company which sets forth the calculation of Parent Net Cash, together with reasonable supporting detail (the “Parent Certificate”), which Parent Certificate shall be subject to the reasonable review and approval of Company. Following delivery of the Parent Certificate until the Closing, Company and its accountants shall, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, be permitted to discuss with Parent and its accountants the calculation of Parent Net Cash and shall be provided complete and accurate copies of, and have reasonable access, upon reasonable notice at reasonable times during normal business hours, to the work papers and supporting records of Parent and its accountants so as to allow Company and its accountants to verify the accuracy of the Parent Net Cash.

Section 5.19 Company and Parent Disclosure Schedules. Each of Company and Parent may in its discretion, for informational purposes only, supplement the information set forth on the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, with respect to any matter now existing or hereafter arising that, if existing or occurring at or prior to the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, on the date of this Agreement or that is necessary to correct any information in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, which has been rendered inaccurate thereby promptly following discovery thereof.

If applicable, Parent shall cause the Reverse Split to be implemented and take effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 5.22 Listing. Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger to be approved for listing (subject to notice of issuance) on the Nasdaq at or prior to the Effective Time.

Section 5.24 Further Assurances. Prior to the Effective Time, the Parties will exercise their reasonable best efforts to cause to be satisfied those conditions set forth under Article VI. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of Company or Merger Sub, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of Company or Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect, or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title, and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties, or assets of Company acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties.

Section 8.03 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 8.04 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 8.05 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Company Documents and the Parent Documents constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings (other than the Confidentiality Agreement), both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder.

Section 8.07 Waiver.
