Allocation of Purchase Price. Sellers and Buyer agree to allocate the total consideration (as determined for federal income Tax purposes) paid for the Purchased Assets (including any Assumed Liabilities treated as consideration for federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes) among the Purchased Assets for all Tax purposes in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and the methodology and principles set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. Buyer (with Sellers’ cooperation as reasonably requested) shall deliver to Sellers within 60 days after the Closing Date an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) determined in accordance with this Section 2.04 and Exhibit A attached hereto, and Sellers shall have 30 days to review and provide any objections thereto in writing. Sellers and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such objection within the 30 days following delivery of Sellers’ objections; provided, that if the parties are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within such 30 day period, either party may immediately engage Grant Thornton LLP (or if Grant Thornton LLP refuses or is unable to perform the requested services, such other regionally recognized independent accounting firm as is agreed to by Buyer and Sellers in good faith) (the “Neutral Accountant”) to resolve the remaining disputed items. Buyer and Sellers shall present their respective positions on the disputed items to the Neutral Accountant in writing, and the parties shall require the Neutral Accountant, within 30 days thereafter, acting as an expert and not an arbitrator, to resolve only the matters objected to by Sellers and not resolved by the parties with respect to the determination of the Allocation Schedule. The resolution by the Neutral Accountant of such matters shall be within the range of the amounts

3


 

claimed by the parties in their written submissions to the Neutral Accountant. All of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountant in connection with any dispute under this Section 2.04 shall be borne by the party whose positions (based on aggregate dollar amount) are furthest from the final determination of such disputed items by the Neutral Accountant. Each party shall bear any fees and expenses of its own accountants, attorneys and other representatives with respect to the matters described above. Buyer and Sellers each agree to complete and file Form 8594 (including any supplemental filing) with its applicable U.S. federal income Tax Return, and shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with such finally determined Allocation Schedule, unless otherwise required pursuant to applicable law or a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state or local applicable law).
Section 2.05
Withholding Tax. Buyer and any of its Affiliates or agents shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts that Buyer or any such Affiliates or agents may be required to deduct and withhold under the Code or any applicable state or local Tax law. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
Section 2.06
Earn-Out.
(a)
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.06(a) and Section 2.06(h), Sellers shall be entitled to receive a contingent payment in the form of Common Stock (collectively, the “Earn-Out Shares”) in a number of shares equal to the amount of the quotient of (i) the product of (A) the quotient of (x) the difference of (1) the total number of Units sold in the calendar year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Unit Sales”) and (2) 5,000, divided by (y) 250, multiplied by (B) $1,000,000; provided, that the product shall be rounded down to the nearest $1,000,000 and shall not exceed $20,000,000 in the aggregate, divided by (ii) VWAP for the Common Stock based on the 10 consecutive trading days ending on (and including) December 31, 2024, on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC as reported by Bloomberg L.P., subject to the VWAP Collar. In addition, in the event the 2024 Unit Sales include at least 2,400 Units sold in the business-to-business channel, the Sellers shall be entitled to an additional number of Earn-Out Shares equal to the amount of the quotient of (x) $3,000,000 divided by (y) VWAP for the Common Stock based on the 10 consecutive trading days ending on (and including) December 31, 2024, on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC as reported by Bloomberg L.P., subject to the VWAP Collar.
(b)
Within 45 days after the end of calendar year ended December 31, 2024, Buyer shall calculate the 2024 Unit Sales (such calculation, the “Earn-Out Calculation”) and submit the result of the Earn-Out Calculation to Sellers.
(c)
Review and Dispute Procedures.
(i)
Sellers shall have the right to review an Earn-Out Calculation for a period of 15 days following the delivery of an Earn-Out Calculation by Buyer (the “Earn-Out Review Period”). Sellers shall have the right to object to any item or computation appearing in an Earn-Out Calculation by notifying Buyer in writing of Sellers’ specific objections (and the basis thereof) prior to the expiration of the applicable Earn-Out Review Period. If Sellers do not deliver notice of any such objections prior to the expiration of the applicable Earn-Out Review Period, then the applicable Earn-Out Calculation, and all calculations made therein, shall be determinative for purposes of this Agreement and shall be final and binding. Any item or amount on an Earn-Out Calculation which is not objected to by Sellers in writing shall be deemed final, conclusive and binding upon the parties for all purposes.

4


 

(ii)
If Sellers object in writing to an Earn-Out Calculation prior to the expiration of the Earn-Out Review Period, Sellers and Buyer shall, during the 30 day period following delivery of Sellers’ objections, attempt in good faith to resolve the matters on a Earn-Out Calculation to which Sellers objected. In the event Sellers and Buyer cannot agree on such matters by the end of such 30 day period, either party may immediately engage the Neutral Accountant to resolve the remaining disputed items. Buyer and Sellers shall present their respective positions on the disputed items to the Neutral Accountant in writing, and the parties shall require the Neutral Accountant, within 30 days thereafter, acting as an expert and not an arbitrator, to resolve only the matters objected to by Sellers and not resolved by the parties with respect to the determination of the Earn-Out Calculation. The resolution by the Neutral Accountant of such matters shall be within the range of the amounts claimed by the parties in their written submissions to the Neutral Accountant. All of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountant in connection with any dispute under this Section 2.06(c)(ii) shall be borne by the party whose positions (based on aggregate dollar amount) are furthest from the final determination of such disputed items by the Neutral Accountant. Each party shall bear any fees and expenses of its own accountants, attorneys and other representatives with respect to the matters described above.
(d)
Sellers acknowledge and agree that (i) it is the intention of Buyer in purchasing the Business to combine the operations of Buyer’s business with the Business (the “Combined Businesses”), (ii) from and after the Closing Date, Buyer and its Affiliates have the right to operate the Combined Businesses (and all components of Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ businesses) in any way that they deem appropriate in their sole discretion, (iii) Buyer and its Affiliates are under no obligation to operate the Combined Businesses (or any component of its or its Affiliates’ businesses) in order to maximize the 2024 Unit Sales, (iv) Buyer and its Affiliates are under no obligation to operate the Combined Businesses (or any component of its or its Affiliates’ businesses) in a manner consistent with the manner in which Sellers operated the Business prior to the Closing Date, (v) Buyer and its Affiliates have not promised nor projected that the 2024 Unit Sales will meet the threshold for any Earn-Out Shares to be issued and (vi) Buyer and its Affiliates owe no fiduciary duty or other express or implied duty to Sellers or their respective Affiliates.
(e)
Within 45 days following the final determination of an Earn-Out Calculation pursuant to Section 2.06(c), if Seller is entitled to receive Earn-Out Shares pursuant to Section 2.06(a) on the basis of a finalized Earn-Out Calculation, Buyer shall issue and deliver such Earn-Out Shares to Sellers.
(f)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.06(d), from the Closing Date until December 31, 2024, Buyer shall keep the accounting books and records so as to allow reasonable confirmation and verification of the 2024 Unit Sales and the Earn-Out Calculation in the event of a dispute under Section 2.06(c) in respect of any Earn-Out Calculation.
(g)
The parties hereto agree to treat any Earn-Out Shares issued pursuant to this Section 2.06 as an adjustment to the purchase price of the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state or local applicable law) or for any amounts required to be treated as interest under Section 1274 or Section 483 of the Code.
(h)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, in no event shall the Company issue Earn-Out Shares in an amount, when combined all issuances of

5


 

Common Stock issued in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, would cause the Share Cap to be exceed, unless Shareholder Approval is obtained.
Section 2.07
Consents. With respect to any third party consents or approvals needed to transfer or assign an Assigned Contract (“Consents”) that have not been obtained (or otherwise are not in full force and effect) as of the Closing (such Assigned Contracts, the “Restricted Seller Contracts”), following the Closing, the parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts, and cooperate with each other, to as quickly as practicable, at Buyer’s election (a) obtain the Consent relating to each Restricted Seller Contract, (b) facilitate Acquisition Sub’s entering into a new contract with the customers under each Restricted Seller Contract, or (c) terminate the Restricted Seller Contract using commercially reasonable best efforts to minimize any cost or liability as a result of such termination. Notwithstanding Section 1.01(d) and Section 1.03, neither this Agreement nor the Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall constitute an assignment or assumption of the Restricted Seller Contracts unless and until a Consent is obtained. Pending the consummation of subsection (a), (b) or (c), above, the parties shall cooperate with each other in any reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide to Acquisition Sub the benefits of use of such Restricted Seller Contract for its term (or any right or benefit arising thereunder, including the enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereunder). Once a Consent for the assignment and assumption of a Restricted Seller Contract is obtained, Sellers shall promptly assign, transfer, convey and deliver such Restricted Seller Contract to Acquisition Sub, and Acquisition Sub shall assume the obligations under such Restricted Seller Contract assigned to Acquisition Sub from and after the date of such assignment to Acquisition Sub, pursuant to a special-purpose assignment and assumption agreement in form substantially similar to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement (all at no additional cost to Acquisition Sub).
Section 2.08
Stock Legends; Lock-up. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, each Seller acknowledges and agrees that all shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement (including the Closing Shares and Earn-Out Shares (if any)) may be issued in uncertificated book-entry form made available through Buyer’s transfer agent (unless otherwise determined by Buyer in its sole discretion).

In addition to any legend imposed by applicable federal or state securities laws, the book-entries or certificates representing the Common Stock to be issued to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement shall bear a restrictive legend (and stop transfer orders shall be placed against the transfer thereof with Buyer’s transfer agent), stating substantially as follows:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO RESALE IN CONNECTION WITH A DISTRIBUTION AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PERIOD WHICH SHALL EXPIRE NO EARLIER THAN 11:59 PM PACIFIC TIME ON THE DATE WHICH IS 540 DAYS FROM APRIL 27, 2023. SUCH LOCK-UP PERIOD IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.”

Section 9.04
Indemnification Procedures. If a party hereto seeks indemnification under this Article IX, such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim. In connection with any suit, action or claim (a “Proceeding”) brought or asserted by any third party (a “Third Party Proceeding”) that may give rise to indemnity hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the same in writing, specifying in detail the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto; provided, that, the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party’s its ability to defend such Third Party Proceeding. The Indemnifying Party, if it acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party and so elects, shall assume and control the defense of such Third Party Proceeding (and shall consult with the Indemnified Party with respect thereto), including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of expenses; unless the nature of the Third Party Proceeding (a) relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (b) seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (c) if adversely determined, would not entitle the Indemnified Party to full indemnity pursuant to Article IX or (d) joint representation of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party is precluded under the rules of professional conduct governing counsel in the applicable jurisdiction for a reason other than the Indemnified Party refusing to waive the conflict of interest and such preclusion is supported by an opinion of counsel delivered by the Indemnified Party at its expense, in which case the Indemnified Party may elect to retain its own counsel to defend such Third Party Proceeding at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against the Third Party Proceeding, it must so notify the Indemnified Party in writing within 10 Business Days of receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice thereof of the acknowledgment of its indemnity obligations with respect to, and election to assume the defense of, the Third Party Proceeding, failing which, the Indemnified Party may defend against, conduct and control any action or proceeding with respect to such Third Party Proceeding with counsel of its own choosing, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party timely assumes the defense of the Third Party Proceeding, it shall diligently pursue the defense of such Proceeding and keep the Indemnified Party reasonably apprised of the status thereof (provided, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Proceeding with counsel of its own choosing, at its sole cost and expense). Neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, may compromise or settle any Third Party Proceeding against which it is defending without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be (which consent, if applicable, shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the claim is solely for money damages to be paid in full by the settling, compromising party and requires no admission of wrongdoing on the part of the non-settling, non-compromising party. The Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Proceeding.
Section 9.05
Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made by a Seller under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the purchase price of the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law.
Section 9.06
Intentionally Omitted.
Section 9.07
Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this Article IX are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise.
Section 9.08
Basket; Cap.
(a)
In no event will Sellers be liable to any Buyer Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 9.02(a) (other than respect to a claim for indemnification based

37


 

upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of Fraud or with respect to a breach, falsity or incorrectness of any Fundamental Representation or IP Representations) until the aggregate Losses of all Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of, in connection with or as a result of claims under Section 9.02(a) exceeds $100,000 in the aggregate (the “Basket”), in which event Sellers shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties from and against all such Losses from the first dollar. Buyer shall not be liable to any Seller Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 9.03(a) (other than with respect to a claim for indemnification based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of Fraud) until the aggregate Losses of all Seller Indemnified Parties arising out of, in connection with or as a result of claims under Section 9.03(a) exceeds the Basket, in which event Buyer shall be obligated to indemnify a Seller Indemnified Party from and against all such Losses from the first dollar.
(b)
In no event shall the aggregate indemnity obligation of Sellers pursuant to Section 9.02(a) exceed $3,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, that the Cap shall not apply to any claim based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of (i) a breach, falsity or incorrectness of any Fundamental Representation or IP Representation or (ii) Fraud, with respect to which, in each case, the aggregate indemnity obligation of Sellers shall not exceed the Closing Date Purchase Price.
Section 9.09
Sources of Recovery. In the event of a claim by any Buyer Indemnified Party under this Article IX, the Losses shall be satisfied, subject to the satisfaction of the Basket pursuant to Section 9.08(a) (if applicable), from the Preferred Shares by adjusting the conversion ratio as set forth in Section 4.2 the Certificate of Designation (the “Conversion Ratio”) as set forth below; provided, that Buyer may elect to satisfy any such Losses by deducting a number of shares equal to the amount of such Losses from the Earn-Out Shares if there are outstanding Losses if and when the Earn-Out Shares are to be issued to Sellers. Promptly following the 24-month anniversary of the Closing Date and the settlement of any then-pending claims for Losses, Buyer shall amend the Certificate of Designation to adjust the Conversion Ratio such that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares shall be equal to the product of (1) the quotient of (A) the difference between (i) $3,000,000 less (ii) that amount of Losses to be satisfied hereunder, divided by (B) $3,000,000, multiplied by (2) the number of shares of Common Stock that would have otherwise been issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares prior to any adjustment of the Conversion Ratio set forth herein. For the sake of example, if 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock were otherwise issuable upon the conversion the Preferred Shares, and the Buyer Indemnified Parties successfully claimed $1,000,000 of Losses, then the Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted such that 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock would be issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares, as further evidenced below:

2,000,000 shares of Common Stock = ((3,000,000-$1,000,000)/$3,000,000) * 3,000,000

Until such time that all Preferred Shares have been converted to Common Stock, in no event shall Buyer otherwise amend the Certificate of Designation except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.09 without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares issued or issuable to Seller’s stockholders pursuant to this Agreement.

 

Section 9.10
Disregard Materiality. All references in this Agreement to “materiality”, “in all material respects”, “material adverse change” and other terms derived therefrom shall be ignored and considered deleted from this Agreement for purposes of determining whether a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement has been breached or whether rights to indemnification under this Article IX exist and the amount of Losses for which a party shall be indemnified under this Article IX.
