THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 11, 2013, by and among (i) LifeLock, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”); (ii) Lavender Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); (iii) Lemon, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”); and (iv) Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company solely in its capacity as the Securityholder Representative. Certain capitalized terms that are used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the board of directors of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved the acquisition of the Company by Parent upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the parties intend that Merger Sub be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”).

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company has unanimously (i) determined that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and the Company Stockholders; (ii) approved, in accordance with applicable provisions of the DGCL and the California Corporation Code (the “CCC”), this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger; and (iii) resolved to recommend that the Company Stockholders approve and adopt this Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger.

WHEREAS, the board of directors of Parent and Merger Sub have, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, unanimously approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and Parent (in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub) has adopted this Agreement and approved the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, in each case in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

WHEREAS, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to Parent and Merger Sub written consents of certain Company Stockholders, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Stockholder Written Consent”), which shall together be sufficient to approve and adopt this Agreement and approve each of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, each as in effect on the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Organizational Documents”), the DGCL and the CCC.

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:


ARTICLE I - THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company at the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined). Following the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

1.2 Closing; Effective Time. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Article VIII hereof, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Greenberg Traurig, LLP, 2375 East Camelback Road, Suite 700, Phoenix, Arizona 85016, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on December 11, 2013, or, if each of the conditions set forth in Article VI hereof have not been satisfied or waived on such date (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), on the third (3rd) Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article VI hereof (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at such time), or at such other time and place as Parent and the Company shall agree in writing. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.” Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, concurrently with or as soon as practicable following the Closing, the parties shall file a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of  Merger”) executed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time as may be mutually agreed in writing by Parent and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Time”).

1.3 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

(a) The certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated at the Effective Time to conform to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time until thereafter amended in accordance with the DGCL or such certificate of incorporation; provided, however, that at the Effective Time, Article I of the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: “The name of the corporation is Lemon, Inc.”

(b) The bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated at the Effective Time to conform to the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time until thereafter amended in accordance with the DGCL or such bylaws.

1.5 Directors and Officers.

(a) The directors of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time shall be the respective individuals who are directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to

 

2


hold office until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

(b) The officers of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time shall be the respective individuals who are officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to hold office until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

1.6 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Company Stockholder:

(a) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into and become one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Cancelled Shares.

(ii) each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall automatically be converted, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive, without interest, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Common Stock into which one (1) share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Per Share Common Consideration, less any amounts that must be contributed in respect of such share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock into the Escrow Fund and the Representative Expense Fund as provided in this

(iv) each share of Series A-4 Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall automatically be converted, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive, without interest, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Common Stock into which one (1) share of Series A-4 Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Per Share Common Consideration, less any amounts that must be contributed in respect of such share of Series A-4 Preferred Stock into the Escrow Fund and the Representative Expense Fund as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, which contributed amounts will be released at the respective times and subject to the contingencies specified herein and therein (the “Series A-4 Consideration,” and the aggregate amount of Series A-4 Consideration, the “Aggregate Series A-4 Consideration”); and

(v) each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall automatically be converted, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive, without interest, an amount equal to the Per Share Common Consideration, less any amounts that must be contributed in respect of such share of Common Stock into the Escrow Fund and the Representative Expense Fund as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, which contributed amounts will be released at the respective times and subject to the contingencies specified herein and therein (the “Common Consideration,” and the aggregate amount of Common Consideration, the “Aggregate Common Consideration”).

1.7 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Capital Stock held by a holder who has made a demand for appraisal of such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and, if applicable, shares of Capital Stock that, as of the Effective Time, are or may become “dissenting shares” within the meaning of Section 1300(b) of the CCC (any such shares being referred to as “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL or, if applicable, Chapter 13 of the CCC with respect to such shares), will not be converted into or represent the right to receive any consideration in accordance with Section 1.6(c), but will be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to the DGCL or, if applicable, the CCC (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding

 

4


and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL or, if applicable, Chapter 13 of the CCC); provided, however, that if a holder of Dissenting Shares (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) withdraws or loses such holder’s demand for such payment and appraisal or becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal, then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date on which such Dissenting Stockholder withdraws such demand or otherwise becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal, such holder’s Dissenting Shares will cease to be Dissenting Shares and will be converted into the right to receive a payment determined in accordance with Section 1.6(c) upon surrender of a Stock Certificate (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with Section 1.9 below.

(b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt written notice of (A) any written demand received by the Company prior to the Effective Time to require the Company to purchase shares of Capital Stock pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or, if applicable, Chapter 13 of the CCC; (B) any withdrawal or attempted withdrawal of any such demand; and (C) any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL or, if applicable, the CCC; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment or agree to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

1.8 Stock Options.

(a) Vested Stock Options. Subject to Sections 1.9(b)(i) and 1.9(b)(ii) hereof, each Vested Stock Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, pursuant to an Option Cancellation Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (an “Option Cancellation Agreement”), to be executed and delivered to the Company by each holder thereof (each, a “Vested Optionholder” and collectively, the “Vested Optionholders”), be terminated and cancelled at the Effective Time and, in consideration of such termination and cancellation, each Vested Optionholder shall be entitled to receive, without interest, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Vested Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (ii) the excess of the Per Share Common Consideration over the per share exercise price of such Vested Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, less any amounts that must be contributed in respect of such Vested Stock Options into the Escrow Fund and the Representative Expense Fund as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, which contributed amounts will be released at the respective times and subject to the contingencies specified herein and therein (the “Option Consideration,” and the aggregate amount of Option Consideration, the “Aggregate Option Consideration”).

(b) Unvested Stock Options.

(i) Unvested Stock Options held by Continuing Employees other than the Founder. Each Unvested Stock Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Continuing Employee (other than the Founder) shall, pursuant to an Option Cancellation Agreement to be executed and delivered to the Company by each holder thereof, be assumed by Parent at the Effective Time and converted into a Parent Option. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each Unvested Stock Option so assumed by Parent pursuant to this Section 1.8(b)(i) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Unvested Stock Option as granted by the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the

 

5


exercise of such Unvested Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the per share exercise price of Common Stock at which such assumed Unvested Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the per share exercise price of the assumed Unvested Stock Option, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such assumed Unvested Stock Option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall in all events be determined in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, and in the case of any Unvested Stock Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, Section 424 of the Code.

(ii) Unvested Stock Options held by the Founder. Each Unvested Stock Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by the Founder shall, pursuant to an Option Cancellation, Assumption and Revesting Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Founder Option Revesting Agreement”), be assumed by Parent at the Effective Time and converted into a Parent Option. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (A) such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall have, and be subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the Founder Option Revesting Agreement, (B) such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Unvested Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (C) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the per share exercise price of Common Stock at which such assumed Unvested Stock Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the per share exercise price of the assumed Unvested Stock Option, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such assumed Unvested Stock Option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such assumed Unvested Stock Option shall in all events be determined in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, and in the case of any Unvested Stock Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, Section 424 of the Code.

(iii) Unvested Stock Options held by Persons other than Continuing Employees. Each Unvested Stock Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Person that is not a Continuing Employee shall, pursuant to an Option Cancellation Agreement to be executed and delivered to the Company by each holder thereof, be terminated and cancelled at the Effective Time without any present or future right to receive any consideration therefor.

(c) Necessary Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to the review and reasonable approval of Parent, the Company shall take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.8 under the Equity Plan, the applicable stock option agreements and any other plans, agreements or arrangements of the Company (whether written or oral, formal or informal), including (i) determining that the treatment of Stock Options as contemplated by this Section 1.8 is permissible under the terms of the Equity Plan, the applicable stock option agreements and such other plans, agreements or arrangements of the Company, (ii) delivering all required notices, (iii) obtaining all necessary approvals and consents and (iv) delivering evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent that all necessary determinations and actions by the Company’s board of directors (or applicable committee of the Company’s board of directors) to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.8 have been made or taken.

As soon as practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the determination of the Final Merger Consideration Amount, Parent shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-8, registering that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all Unvested Stock Options that are assumed by Parent pursuant to Sections 1.8(b)(i) and 1.8(b)(ii) that are eligible to be registered on Form S-8 and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such Unvested Stock Options remain outstanding.

1.9 Paying and Exchange Agent; Closing Payments; Exchange of Stock Certificates.

(a) Paying and Exchange Agent. Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Securityholder Representative to serve as paying and exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Paying and Exchange Agent”).

(b) Closing Payments.

(i) At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent to hold in trust as an escrow fund (the “Escrow Fund”) under the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of an Escrow Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Escrow Agreement”). At the Closing and as set forth on the Securityholder Schedule (as hereinafter defined), an amount equal to the product of (A) the Pro Rata Fraction for each Participating Securityholder and (B) the Escrow Amount shall be withheld from the amount otherwise payable to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to this Agreement and contributed to the Escrow Fund. Each distribution of cash made from the Escrow Fund to the Participating Securityholders shall be made in proportion to the respective Pro Rata Fractions of the Participating Securityholders at the time of such distribution.

(ii) At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Representative Expense Amount to the Securityholder Representative (the “Representative Expense Fund”), which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Securityholder Representative for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Securityholder Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Participating Securityholders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Representative Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Securityholder Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. For tax purposes, the Representative Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Participating Securityholders at the Effective Time. At the Closing and as set forth on the Securityholder Schedule, an amount equal to the product of (A) the Pro Rata Fraction for each Participating Securityholder and (B) the Representative Expense Amount shall be withheld from the amount otherwise payable to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to this Agreement and contributed to the Representative Expense Fund. Each distribution of cash made from the Representative Expense Fund to the Participating Securityholders shall be made in proportion to the respective Pro Rata Fractions of the Participating Securityholders at the time of such distribution.

(iii) At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Aggregate Closing Share Consideration to the Paying and Exchange Agent. Such funds shall be invested as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation pending payment thereof by the Paying and Exchange Agent to the Company Stockholders.

Surviving Corporation, and no part of such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of the Company Stockholders.

(iv) At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver the Aggregate Closing Option Consideration to the Surviving Corporation. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, but in no event later than the first full payroll cycle following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each Vested Optionholder the applicable Option Consideration as set forth in the Securityholder Schedule. The payments described in the preceding sentence shall be effected through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll or accounts payable processes.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights. At the Effective Time, (i) all shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of stock certificates representing shares of Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Stock Certificates”) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, and each Stock Certificate shall thereafter represent the right to receive, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the consideration referred to in Section 1.6(c) payable with respect to such shares of Capital Stock, without interest, upon the surrender of such Stock Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof and in the manner provided herein, or, if such shares of Capital Stock are Dissenting Shares, the rights set forth in Section 1.7; and (ii) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Capital Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a Stock Certificate is presented to the Paying and Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Stock Certificate shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Section 1.9.

(d) Exchange Procedures. In no event later than two (2) Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent shall instruct the Paying and Exchange Agent to mail to the Company Stockholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Stock Certificates in exchange for the consideration referred to in Section 1.6(c) payable with respect to the shares of Capital Stock represented by such Stock Certificate and as set forth in the Securityholder Schedule. Upon surrender of a Stock Certificate to the Paying and Exchange Agent for payment, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal, (A) the Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the consideration referred to in Section 1.6(c) payable with respect to the shares of Capital Stock represented by such Stock Certificate and as set forth in the Securityholder Schedule, and (B) the Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. If payment of any portion of the amount payable pursuant to Section 1.6(c) is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Stock Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the Person requesting such payment (x) shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of those amounts to a Person other than the registered holder of the Stock Certificate surrendered, and shall have established to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid, or (y) shall have established to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax is not applicable.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Stock Certificates. In the event any Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making and delivery of an affidavit of that fact by the Company Stockholder in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent, Parent shall instruct the Paying and Exchange Agent to pay such Company Stockholder the amount which such Company Stockholder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.6(c) (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 1.9(b)(i) and 1.9(b)(ii) hereof); provided, however, that Parent may, in its sole discretion and as a condition precedent to issuing such instruction to the Paying and Exchange Agent, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificate to deliver an

 

8


agreement of indemnification in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and a bond in such sum as Parent may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying and Exchange Agent with respect to the Stock Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(f) Termination of Fund; No Liability. At any time following the first anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying and Exchange Agent to deliver to it any funds (including, without limitation, any earnings received with respect thereto) that had been made available to the Paying and Exchange Agent and that have not been disbursed to the Company Stockholders, and thereafter such Company Stockholders shall be entitled to look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Legal Requirements) and only as general creditors thereof with respect to the amount such Company Stockholders are entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.6(c) upon due surrender of their Stock Certificates, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying and Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Stock Certificate for any amounts delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Legal Requirement.

1.10 Withholding Taxes. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Company and the Paying and Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it reasonably determines it is required to deduct or withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other provision of state, local or foreign Tax law or under any Legal Requirements. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

1.11 Company Indebtedness. The Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub that all Contracts evidencing and/or securing Company Indebtedness are set forth in Schedule 1.11 of the Disclosure Schedule (as hereinafter defined). At or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Parent with customary payoff letters (“Payoff Letters”) from all holders of Company Indebtedness (which letters shall contain payoff amounts, per diems, wire transfer instructions and an authorization for Parent, the Company and/or the Surviving Corporation to file, upon payment of such Company Indebtedness, UCC-3 termination statements), and make arrangements satisfactory to Parent and its lenders for such holders to provide to the Company and/or the Surviving Corporation, simultaneously with the repayment of all such Company Indebtedness, recordable form lien releases, cancelled notes, trademark and patent assignments and other documents reasonably requested by Parent. At the Closing, Parent shall pay or satisfy in full all Company Indebtedness in accordance with the Payoff Letters.

1.12 Closing Statement; Estimated Merger Consideration Amount. At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a certificate (the “Closing Statement”) executed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President setting forth (a) (i) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Cash (the “Estimated Closing Cash”), (ii) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Indebtedness (the “Estimated Closing Indebtedness”), (iii) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses”) and (iv) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”) and the Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount resulting therefrom (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount”), which Closing Statement shall quantify in reasonable detail the items constituting such Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Indebtedness, Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses, Estimated Closing Working Capital and Estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount, and in each case

 

9


calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (b) on the basis of the foregoing, a calculation of the Estimated Merger Consideration Amount, the Aggregate Share Consideration (including the individual components thereof), the Aggregate Closing Share Consideration, the Aggregate Option Consideration and the Aggregate Closing Option Consideration. All such estimates shall be subject to Parent’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall control solely for purposes of determining the amounts payable at the Closing pursuant to Section 1.9(b) and shall not limit or otherwise affect Parent’s remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, or constitute an acknowledgement by Parent of the accuracy of the amounts reflected thereof.

1.13 Final Closing Statement. As soon as practicable (and in any event within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, prepare and deliver to the Securityholder Representative a written statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) including (a) a balance sheet for the Company dated as of the Closing Date and (b) a calculation of the actual (i) Closing Cash (the “Final Closing Cash”), (ii) Closing Indebtedness (the “Final Closing Indebtedness”), (iii) Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses (the “Final Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses”) and (iv) Closing Working Capital (the “Final Closing Working Capital”) and the Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount resulting therefrom (the “Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount”), and (c) on the basis of the foregoing, a calculation of the Final Merger Consideration Amount and the Final Per Share Common Consideration, including such schedules and data as may be appropriate to support such calculations; provided, however, that all calculations of the Final Merger Consideration Amount set forth in the Final Closing Statement, including the Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses and Final Closing Working Capital (and Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount) (including individual working capital line items), that are not different from such calculations set forth in the Closing Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties (unless and to the extent that resolution of a disputed calculation or line item affects an undisputed calculation or line item, in which case such undisputed calculation or line item shall remain open). Following the delivery of the Final Closing Statement to the Securityholder Representative, Parent shall provide the Securityholder Representative and its representatives, if any, at the reasonable request of the Securityholder Representative, with reasonable access (including electronic access, to the extent available) during normal business hours to (i) the books and records of the Surviving Corporation as well as any relevant work papers of Parent, the Company and their accountants generated in preparing the Final Closing Statement, and (ii) such personnel or representatives of the Surviving Corporation and Parent responsible for preparing the Final Closing Statement, as may reasonably be required for the review of the Parent’s calculations. All fees, costs and expenses of the Securityholder Representative relating to the review of the Final Closing Statement shall be borne by the Participating Securityholders out of the Representative Expense Fund and all fees, costs and expenses of Parent or the Surviving Corporation relating thereto shall be borne by Parent.

1.14 Disputes. The following sets forth the procedures for resolving disputes among the parties with respect to the determination of the Final Merger Consideration Amount:

(a) Within thirty (30) days after delivery to the Securityholder Representative of the Final Closing Statement, the Securityholder Representative may deliver to Parent a written statement (the “Objection Statement”) advising Parent that the Securityholder Representative disputes Parent’s calculations set forth in the Final Closing Statement, which Objection Statement shall include, in reasonable detail, the reasons for each item in dispute and proposed adjustments to Parent’s calculations set forth in the Final Closing Statement. If the Securityholder Representative does not timely deliver an Objection Statement as required above, then the calculation of the Final Merger Consideration Amount as set forth in the Final Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the parties and shall not be subject to further review, challenge or adjustment absent Fraud.

 

10


(b) If the Securityholder Representative timely delivers an Objection Statement pursuant to Section 1.14(a) above, Parent and the Securityholder Representative shall confer in good faith to attempt to resolve any disagreements between the Final Closing Statement and the Objection Statement. If Parent and the Securityholder Representative are unable to resolve such disagreements within thirty (30) days after the date of the Objection Statement, then such disagreements shall be referred to the Phoenix, Arizona office of Grant Thornton LLP or another recognized firm of independent certified public accountants selected by mutual agreement of Parent and the Securityholder Representative (the “Settlement Accountants”), and the determinations of the Settlement Accountants with respect to the Final Merger Consideration Amount shall be final and binding on the parties and shall not be subject to further review, challenge or adjustment absent Fraud. The Settlement Accountants shall use their best efforts to reach a determination not more than forty-five (45) days after such referral.

(c) Each party shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Section 1.14; provided, that any costs of the Securityholder Representative shall be borne by the Participating Securityholders. The costs and expenses of the services of the Settlement Accountants shall be paid by the Participating Securityholders if (i) the difference between (A) the Final Merger Consideration Amount resulting from the determination of the Settlement Accountants and (B) the Final Merger Consideration Amount reflected in the Objection Statement is greater than (ii) the difference between (A) the Final Merger Consideration Amount resulting from the determinations of the Settlement Accountants and (B) the Final Merger Consideration Amount reflected in the Closing Statement; otherwise, such costs and expenses of the Settlement Accountants shall be paid by Parent.

1.15 Post-Closing Payments.

(a) If the Final Merger Consideration Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.14 is less than the Estimated Merger Consideration Amount, the Securityholder Representative and Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions to pay to Parent the amount of such difference no later than three (3) Business Days after the determination of such Final Merger Consideration Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds out of the Escrow Fund.

(b) If the Final Merger Consideration Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.14 is greater than the Estimated Merger Consideration Amount, Parent and the Securityholder Representative shall, no later than three (3) Business Days after the determination of such Final Merger Consideration Amount, recalculate the Series A-1 Consideration, Series A-2 Consideration, Series A-3 Consideration, Series A-4 Consideration, Common Consideration and Option Consideration on the basis of the Final Merger Consideration Amount and the Final Per Share Common Consideration (the amount of such excess for each Participating Securityholder, the “Excess Amount”). No later than three (3) Business Days after the recalculation required by the preceding sentence, Parent shall (i) pay to the Paying and Exchange Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders the aggregate Excess Amount payable to such Company Stockholders and (ii) pay to the Surviving Corporation for distribution to the Vested Optionholders through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll and accounts payable processes the aggregate Excess Amount payable to such Vested Optionholders.

(c) The procedures set forth in Sections 1.13, 1.14 and 1.15 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined) for any Losses (as hereinafter defined) in respect of the calculation of the Final Merger Consideration Amount, including the Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses and Final Closing Working Capital (and Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount); provided, however, that this Section 1.15(c) is not intended to and shall not in any manner limit the obligations of the Participating Securityholders to indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Losses in respect of the Indemnifiable Matters (as hereinafter defined) set forth in Sections 7.2(a)(v) or 7.2(a)(vi) hereof.

The Company is in compliance in all material respects with, and has not breached any term of any IP Contracts and, to the Knowledge of the Company, all other parties to IP Contracts are in compliance in all material respects with, and have not breached any material term thereof.

5.9 Certain Tax Matters.

(a) Parent shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, in accordance with past practices unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements, at the expense of the Participating Securityholders, and file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns for the Company for all tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (or tax periods that begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”)) that are filed after the Closing Date. Parent shall deliver a draft of each such Tax Return to the Securityholder Representative not fewer than forty-five (45) days prior to the deadline for filing such Tax Return, including extensions. The Securityholder Representative shall notify Parent in writing if it objects to any portion of a draft Tax Return within thirty (30) days after the draft Tax Return is delivered to the Securityholder Representative. If Parent does not receive written objection by the end of the thirty (30) day period, Parent may file such Tax Return. If the Securityholder Representative notifies Parent that it objects to any portion of the draft Tax Return on or before the end of the thirty (30) days, the Securityholder Representative and Parent shall attempt to mutually resolve any disagreements in good faith regarding such draft Tax Return. Any disagreements regarding the draft Tax Returns that are not resolved within another ten (10) days by the parties shall be resolved by the Settlement Accountants. The parties shall use their respective best efforts to cause the Settlement Accountants to resolve the disagreement within thirty (30) days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon as possible thereafter. The determination of the Settlement Accountants shall be binding on the parties. The cost of the services of the Settlement Accountants together with the expense of filing any amended Tax Returns (as described in the next sentence) will be borne by the party whose calculation of the matter in disagreement differs the most from the calculation as finally determined by the Settlement Accountants; provided, that any costs attributable to the Securityholder Representative shall be borne by the Participating Securityholders. The Tax Returns that are subject to any disagreement shall not be filed until such disagreement is resolved, provided that if such Tax Returns must be filed in order to avoid a penalty, such Tax Returns may be filed as prepared (with any changes to which the parties agree prior to the date of filing reflected therein), and if further changes are agreed upon or required by the Settlement Accountants then Parent shall amend such Tax Returns promptly to reflect such changes.

(b) Parent and the Securityholder Representative will cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing and preparation of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 5.9 and any proceeding related thereto. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Parent will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any tax period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute or period of limitations of the respective tax periods.

No compromise or full or partial settlement of any such claim or litigation shall be agreed to by the Company without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless such compromise or

 

46


settlement includes a complete release of liability in favor of the Company or its directors or officers or the cost thereof is fully covered by insurance.

5.11 Casualty Loss. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, any of the Properties of the Company shall be destroyed or damaged in whole or in part by fire, earthquake, flood, other casualty or any other cause, then the Company shall, at Parent’s election, (a) cause such Properties to be repaired or replaced prior to the Closing with Properties of substantially the same condition and function, (b) deposit in a separate account an amount sufficient to cause such Properties to be so repaired or replaced, or (c) enter into contractual arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Parent so that the Company will have at the Closing the same economic value as if such casualty had not occurred.

(c) The Indemnified Parties’ first source of recovery for indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a) shall be recourse against the cash held in the Escrow Fund, but if the Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy any portion of a Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made under Section 7.2(a)(i) for breaches of or inaccuracies in the Special Representations or for which an indemnification claim has been made under clauses (ii) through (xi) of Section 7.2(a), inclusive, the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover such portion of such Losses in respect of such indemnification claims directly from the Participating Securityholders (the portion of any Loss for which indemnification is not satisfied by the Escrow Fund is referred to as an “Excess Loss”).

(d) Except in the case of Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation, the maximum amount that the Indemnified Parties may recover for indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(i) for breaches of or inaccuracies in the IP Representations shall be limited to a dollar amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of the Final Merger Consideration Amount (inclusive of the Escrow Amount as described below in Section 7.3(e)).

(e) Except in the case of Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation committed by or with the actual knowledge of such Participating Securityholder and subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 7.3, the liability of each Participating Securityholder for indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a) shall be limited, in the aggregate, to a dollar amount equal to the aggregate portion of the Final Merger Consideration Amount (including such Participating Securityholder’s Pro Rata Fraction of the Escrow Amount and Representative Expense Amount) payable to such Participating Securityholder pursuant to this Agreement (without regard to any withholding, vesting or other similar limitation applicable to such payments). For clarity, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the liability limits in this Section 7.3 are overlapping and inclusive of one another (which means that any higher limit includes all lower limits within such higher limit); by way of illustration, in the event a claim based on a breach of or inaccuracy in the IP Representations is made after the entire Escrow Amount is exhausted for any reason, then the maximum amount that may be recovered from any Participating Securityholder shall be limited to an amount equal to the difference between (i) such Participating Securityholder’s Pro Rata

 

54


Fraction of thirty percent (30%) of the Final Merger Consideration Amount and (ii) such Participating Securityholder’s Pro Rata Fraction of the Escrow Amount.

(f) In the case of any indemnification claim under Sections 7.2(a) that is not limited to the recovery of funds from the Escrow Fund pursuant to Sections 7.3(b) and 7.3(c), subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.3(b) through 7.3(e), the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to bring indemnification claims under Sections 7.2(a)(i) through 7.2(a)(xi) as applicable against any or all of the Participating Securityholders for the Excess Losses, and each Participating Securityholder shall be liable for its, his or her Pro Rata Fraction of the Excess Losses in respect of such indemnification claim; provided, however, that that the foregoing shall not limit the liability of a Participating Securityholder who has committed Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation, or has actual knowledge of Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation, with respect to such Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation.

(g) The rights of the Indemnified Parties to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, payment of Losses or any other remedy under this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any other matter. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any such representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any such covenant or agreement, will not affect the right to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, payment of Losses, or any other remedy based on any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(h) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article VII shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies or contractual indemnification or contribution provisions with respect to such Loss (net of any costs to recover such payments and any increased premiums resulting therefrom), provided, however, that in the event the Indemnified Parties first recover against the Escrow Fund or the Participating Securityholders for any particular Losses and thereafter recover for the same Losses pursuant to any existing insurance policies and/or contractual indemnification or contribution provisions, then the amount recovered pursuant to such existing insurance policies and/or contractual indemnification or contribution provisions (up to the amount first recovered by the Indemnified Parties) shall be paid to the Participating Securityholders by Parent.

(i) The Indemnified Parties shall act in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner to mitigate any Losses they may pay, incur, suffer or sustain for which indemnification is available hereunder to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require any Indemnified Party to seek recovery from any third party).

(j) The amount of any Loss arising out of any item included as a liability in calculating the Closing Working Capital shall be calculated net of the amount so included. The amount of any Loss arising out of any reduction in value of any current asset acquired at the Closing shall be calculated net of the reported value of such current asset used in calculating the Closing Working Capital.

(k) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to double recovery for any adjustments to consideration provided for hereunder or for any indemnifiable Losses even though such Losses may have resulted from the breach of more than one of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants in this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not prevent an Indemnified Party from recovering all Losses to which it is entitled hereunder arising out of the same set of facts and circumstances notwithstanding the fact that an indemnification claim for such Losses is based upon more than one representation, warranty, agreement or covenant.

 

55


(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, under no circumstances will any party hereto be liable to the other parties hereto for any (i) punitive damages, except to the extent such punitive damages are awarded to a third party pursuant to a Third Party Claim or (ii) consequential, indirect or special damages (except to the extent any of the aforementioned damages described in this clause (ii) (1) are awarded to a third party in connection with a Third Party Claim, (2) were reasonably foreseeable under an objective standard as a direct result of the breach at issue and are proven damages by Parent, (3) result from, arise out of or relate to a breach of, or inaccuracy in, any of the IP Representations or the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 2.19), or (4) result from, arise out of or relate to the Indemnifiable Matters set forth in Section 7.2(a)(xi) (and Schedule 7.2(a)(xi)) hereof).

(m) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 7.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the liability of a Participating Securityholder in connection with a claim based on Fraud or Intentional Misrepresentation committed by, or with the actual knowledge of, such Participating Securityholder.

(n) Any claim for indemnification under this Article VII, and any offer to compromise or settle such claim, must be made on a pro rata basis to all Participating Securityholders (based on their respective Pro Rata Fractions).

(o) Parent hereby acknowledges that other than the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule or the Officer’s Certificate, none of the Company, its Affiliates, or any of their representatives make or have made, and Parent is not relying and has not relied on, any representation or warranty, express or implied, at law or in equity, with respect to the Company or the subject matter of this Agreement.

(p) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that any claim for Losses which are accrued but not yet paid or which are anticipated to be incurred, paid or sustained in the future is resolved in favor of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VII, no amounts shall actually be payable by the Participating Securityholders to such Indemnified Party until after such Losses are actually incurred, paid or sustained; provided, however, that this Section 7.3(p) shall not limit the right of an Indemnified Party to bring any claim for Losses which are accrued but not yet paid or which are anticipated to be incurred, paid or sustained in the future.

7.4 Indemnification Procedure; Escrow Agreement.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.1, if an Indemnified Party wishes to make an indemnification claim under this Article VII, such Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to the Securityholder Representative) (or in the event an Indemnified Party elects to pursue such indemnification claim directly against a Participating Securityholder, to such Participating Securityholder directly) (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, incurred, suffered or sustained, or reasonably anticipates that it will pay, incur, suffer or sustain Losses, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Losses, the aggregate amount of such Losses, the date each such item was paid, incurred, suffered or sustained, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and, if applicable, the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or covenant to which such item is related. Parent may update an Indemnification Claim Notice from time to time to reflect any new information discovered with respect to the claim set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice, so long as the delivery of the original Indemnification Claim Notice is made within the applicable claims period and such update (i) continues to satisfy the requirements of this Section 7.4(a) and (ii) only asserts bases for liability reasonably related to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Indemnification Claim Notice.

 

56


(b) If the Securityholder Representative on behalf of the Participating Securityholder (or the Participating Securityholder in the event that indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from such Participating Securityholder) shall not object in writing within the thirty (30)-day period after receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice by delivery of a written notice of objection to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to Parent) containing a reasonably detailed description of the facts and circumstances supporting an objection to the applicable indemnification claim (an “Indemnification Claim Objection Notice”), such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Securityholder Representative on behalf of the Participating Securityholders (or the applicable Participating Securityholder) that the Indemnified Party is entitled to the full amount of the claim for Losses set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice. In such event, the Escrow Agent shall promptly release from the Escrow Fund cash equal to the Losses set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice as directed in such Indemnification Claim Notice.

(c) In the event that the Securityholder Representative (or in the event that indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder) shall deliver an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.4(b) within thirty (30) days after its receipt of such Indemnification Claim Notice, the Securityholder Representative (or such objecting Participating Securityholder) and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Securityholder Representative (or such objecting Participating Securityholder) and Parent should so agree, a letter of direction setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, in the case of an indemnification claim to be recovered from the Escrow Fund, shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such letter of direction and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. In such event, the Escrow Agent shall promptly release from the Escrow Fund an amount of cash equal to the Losses set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice as directed by the letter of direction. Should the amount held in the Escrow Fund, if any, be insufficient to satisfy in whole the amount owed to an Indemnified Party in accordance with such letter of direction and this Agreement for an Excess Loss, then each Participating Securityholder shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the date of such letter of direction, pay to the Indemnified Party such Participating Securityholder’s Pro Rata Fraction of such shortfall in cash (subject to the limitations of liability set forth in Section 7.3).

(d) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to thirty (30) days after delivery of an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice, either Parent or the Securityholder Representative (or the objecting Participating Securityholder) may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware pursuant to the arbitration proceedings set out in 10 Del. C. §349 and the Court of Chancery Rules relating thereto, including Court of Chancery Rules 96, 97, and 98. The arbitrator(s) shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Indemnification Claim Notice shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties to this Agreement and the Participating Securityholders, and shall not be subject to appeal. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The forgoing arbitration provision shall apply to any dispute among the Participating Securityholders and the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII, whether relating to claims to recover funds from the Escrow Fund or to the other indemnification obligations set forth in this Article VII.

7.5 Third Party Claims. In the event Parent becomes aware of a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) which Parent reasonably believes may result in a demand against the Escrow Fund or for

 

57


other indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, Parent shall reasonably promptly notify the Securityholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder) of such Third Party Claim, and the Securityholder Representative shall be entitled on behalf of the Participating Securityholders (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder shall be entitled), at its expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim. The Securityholder Representative shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents by the Securityholder Representative does not affect any privilege relating to the Indemnified Parties. Parent shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of the Securityholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder), no settlement of any such Third Party Claim shall be determinative of whether an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder in respect of such Third Party Claim or the amount of Losses relating to such matter. In the event that the Securityholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder) has consented to any such settlement, the Participating Securityholders (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder) shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VII to the amount of any claim by Parent against the Escrow Fund in respect of such Third Party Claim. In the event that the Securityholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from a Participating Securityholder, such Participating Securityholder) does not consent to any such settlement, and the Indemnified Parties wish to seek indemnification hereunder in respect of such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Parties shall make such indemnification claims pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 7.4.

7.6 Securityholder Representative.

(a) By virtue of the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, by the Company Stockholders, the acceptance of consideration under this Agreement and/or the completion, execution and delivery of the letters of transmittal contemplated by Section 1.9, each of the Participating Securityholders shall be deemed to have (i) designated Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the representative of the Participating Securityholders (the “Securityholder Representative”), and (ii) agreed that the Securityholder Representative is hereby appointed and constituted the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of each Participating Securityholder, with full power in his, her or its name and on his, her or its behalf to give and receive notices and communications in respect of indemnification claims under this Agreement to be recovered against the Escrow Fund, to authorize payment to any Indemnified Party from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of any indemnification claims hereunder by any Indemnified Party, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to any such indemnification claims, to assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, any such indemnification claim by any Indemnified Party hereunder against any Participating Securityholder or by any such Participating Securityholder against any Indemnified Party or any dispute between any Indemnified Party and any such Participating Securityholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Securityholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated or permitted by the terms of this Agreement. Such agency may be changed by the Participating Securityholders from time to time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Parent; provided, however, that the Securityholder Representative may not be removed unless holders of a two-thirds

 

58


interest of the Escrow Fund agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a resignation of the Securityholder Representative or other vacancy in the position of Securityholder Representative, such vacancy may be filled by the holders of a majority in interest of the Escrow Fund. No bond shall be required of the Securityholder Representative. After the Closing, notices or communications to or from the Securityholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Participating Securityholders.

(b) The Securityholder Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Securityholder Representative while acting in good faith and without gross negligence. The Participating Securityholders on whose behalf the Escrow Amount was contributed to the Escrow Fund shall indemnify the Securityholder Representative and hold the Securityholder Representative harmless against any and all Losses arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Securityholder Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Securityholder Representative and any amounts required to be paid by the Securityholder Representative to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (“Representative Expenses”), in each case, as such Representative Expense is incurred or suffered; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Expense is finally adjudicated to have arisen from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Securityholder Representative, the Securityholder Representative will reimburse the Participating Securityholders the amount of such Representative Expense attributable to such bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Representative Expense Amount shall be available to reimburse the Securityholder Representative for any Representative Expenses. Following the Expiration Date, the Securityholder Representative shall have the right to recover Representative Expenses not previously recovered from the Representative Expense Fund from the Escrow Fund prior to any distribution to the Participating Securityholders (solely from any funds that are not subject to any pending indemnification claims made under this Agreement), and prior to any such distribution, shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate setting forth the Representative Expenses actually incurred and not previously recovered. For the avoidance of doubt, while this section allows the Securityholder Representative to be paid from the Representative Expense Fund and Escrow Fund, this Section 7.6(b) shall not limit the obligation of any Participating Securityholder to promptly pay such Representative Expenses as they are incurred. Following the Expiration Date, the resolution of all indemnification claims made under this Agreement and the satisfaction of all such indemnification claims, the Securityholder Representative shall distribute such portion of the Representative Expense Amount that has not been used to reimburse the Securityholder Representative for Representative Expenses, if any, to the Escrow Agent, who will promptly distribute such funds to the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Fractions. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholder Representative shall constitute a decision of the Participating Securityholders and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Participating Securityholders; and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Participating Securityholders. The Escrow Agent and Parent are hereby relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholder Representative.

(c) Certain Participating Securityholders (the “Advisory Group”) have entered or will enter into a letter agreement with the Securityholder Representative regarding direction to be provided by the Advisory Group to the Securityholder Representative. The Advisory Group shall incur no liability to the Participating Securityholders for any liability incurred by the members of the Advisory Group while acting in good faith and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of their duties (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith), even if such act or omission constitutes negligence on the part of the Advisory Group or one of its members. This exculpation from liability shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

59

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Effective Time (whether before or after the adoption of this Agreement by the Required Company Stockholder Vote):

(a) by mutual written agreement of Parent and the Company;

(b) by either Parent or the Company if the Merger shall not have been consummated by February 15, 2014 (the “End Date”); provided, however, that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if the failure to consummate the Merger by the End Date is attributable to a failure on the part of such party to perform any covenant in this Agreement required to be performed by such party at or prior to the Effective Time;

(c) by either Parent or the Company if (i) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable order having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger, and (ii) the contravention of such order would have a material adverse effect on Parent (in the case of a termination by Parent) or a Company Material Adverse Effect (in the case of a termination by the Company); provided, however, that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if such party did not use reasonable best efforts to have such order vacated prior to its becoming final and nonappealable;

(d) by Parent if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or inaccuracy and such breach or inaccuracy has not been cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof to the Company; provided, however, that no cure period shall be required (i) for a breach or inaccuracy which by its nature cannot be cured or (ii) if any of the conditions to Closing in Article VI for the benefit of Parent are incapable of being satisfied on or before the End Date; or

(e) by the Company if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Parent contained in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or inaccuracy and such breach or inaccuracy has not been cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof to Parent; provided, however, that no cure period shall be required (i) for a breach or inaccuracy which by its nature cannot be cured or (ii) if any of the conditions to Closing in Article VI for the benefit of the Company are incapable of being satisfied on or before the End Date.

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of any party; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve either party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement or any agreement made as of the date hereof or subsequent thereto pursuant to this Agreement; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 8.2 and Article IX shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Article VIII.

60


regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including, if applicable, the termination of this Agreement and the reasons therefor, without the consent of Parent; provided, however, that (a) subject to Parent’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), venture capital funds and private equity funds that have invested in the capital stock of the Company may make contractually-required communications to their investors (which will contain no more information regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby than is so contractually required to be disclosed and shall, in any event, not be inconsistent with any public statements made by Parent regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby), (b) the foregoing restrictions in this Section 9.1 shall not prevent any Person from complying with applicable Legal Requirements compelling any such statement or communication (which statements or communications will contain no more information regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby than is so legally required to be disclosed) and (c) the foregoing restrictions in this Section 9.1 shall not prevent any Person from making disclosures in dispute resolution proceedings to courts, arbitrators, mediators and other persons involved in such proceedings (e.g., attorneys, expert witnesses).

9.2 Confidentiality. Each of the parties hereto (other than the Securityholder Representative) hereby agrees that the information obtained in any investigation pursuant to Section 4.1 or any information obtained pursuant to the notice requirements of Section 5.2, or otherwise pursuant to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or the effectuation of the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement dated as of October 8, 2013, between the Company and Parent. In this regard, the Company acknowledges that the Parent Common Stock is publicly traded and that any information obtained during the course of its due diligence could be considered to be material non-public information within the meaning of federal and state securities laws. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges and agrees not to engage in any discussions, correspondence or transactions in the Parent Common Stock in violation of applicable securities laws. The Securityholder Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees to the terms of that certain Nondisclosure Agreement entered into by and between the Securityholder Representative and the Company, which shall apply to the information referenced in the first sentence of this Section 9.2 and shall survive the Closing.

9.3 Costs and Expenses.

(a) Company Expenses. If the Merger is not consummated, the Company shall be solely responsible for any and all expenses and costs incurred by the Company in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

Any Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses shall be reflected in the Closing Statement.

(b) Parent Expenses. Parent shall be solely responsible for any and all expenses and costs incurred by Parent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

9.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by the parties by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors at any time prior to the Closing Date (notwithstanding any stockholder approval); provided, however, that after approval of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company Stockholders, no amendment shall be made which pursuant to applicable Legal Requirement requires further approval by such Company Stockholders without such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto, signed on behalf of each of the parties in interest at the time of the amendment.

 

61


9.5 Extension; Waiver.

(a) At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the parties. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer on behalf of such party.

(b) At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (i) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other parties contained in this Agreement or any document delivered pursuant hereto or (ii) subject to applicable Legal Requirements, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions of the other parties contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer on behalf of such party. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.

9.6 Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to any party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly delivered, given and received (a) upon receipt when delivered by hand, (b) upon transmission, if sent by facsimile or e-mail transmission (in each case with receipt verified by e-mail or otherwise), or (c) one (1) Business Day after being sent by courier or express delivery service, provided that in each case the notice or other communication is sent to the address, facsimile telephone number or e-mail address set forth beneath the name of such party below (or to such other address, facsimile telephone number or e-mail address as such party shall have specified in a written notice given to the other parties hereto):

9.7 Governing Law. The provisions of this Agreement and the documents delivered pursuant hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (excluding any conflict of law rule or principle that would refer to the laws of another jurisdiction). Subject to Section 7.4(d), each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other matters contemplated herein (or, only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware). Subject to Section 7.4(d), each party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such Court of Chancery (or, only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, in any federal court within the State of Delaware). By execution and delivery of this Agreement, subject to Section 7.4(d), each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and to the appellate courts therefrom solely for the purposes of disputes arising under the this Agreement and not as a general submission to such jurisdiction or with respect to any other dispute, matter or claim whatsoever. The parties hereto irrevocably consent to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the delivery of copies thereof by overnight courier to the address for such party to which notices are deliverable hereunder. Any such service of process shall be effective upon delivery. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The parties hereto hereby waive any right to stay or dismiss any action or proceeding under or in connection with this Agreement brought before the foregoing courts on the basis of (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason, or that it or any of its property is immune from the above-described legal process, (b) that such action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that venue for the action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, or (c) any other defense that would hinder or delay the levy, execution or

 

63


collection of any amount to which any party hereto is entitled pursuant to any final judgment of any court having jurisdiction.

9.12 Remedies. The rights and remedies provided by this Agreement are cumulative, and the use of any one right or remedy by any party hereto shall not preclude or constitute a waiver of its right to use any or all other remedies.

The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(b) The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to their fair meaning and neither for nor against any party hereto irrespective of which party caused such provisions to be drafted, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. Each of the parties acknowledges that it has been represented by an attorney in connection with the preparation and execution of this Agreement.

9.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties agree that this Agreement shall be legally binding upon the electronic transmission, including by electronic mail or facsimile or .pdf files, by each party of a signed signature page to this Agreement to the other party.

9.16 Attorneys’ Fees. Subject to Section 1.14 hereof, in the event any suit or other legal proceeding is brought for the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover from the other party or parties upon final judgment on the merits reasonable attorneys’ fees (and sales taxes thereon, if any), including attorneys’ fees for any appeal, and costs incurred in bringing such suit or proceeding.

9.17 Risk of Loss. Prior to the Closing, the risk of loss of damage to, or destruction of, any and all of the Company’s assets, including, without limitation, the Properties, shall remain with the Company, and the legal doctrine known as the “Doctrine of Equitable Conversion” shall not be applicable to this Agreement or to any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.18 Conflict of Interest. If the Securityholder Representative so desires, acting on behalf of the Participating Securityholders and without the need for any consent or waiver by the Company or Parent, Fenwick shall be permitted to represent the Participating Securityholders after the Closing in connection with any matter, including without limitation, anything related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other agreements referenced herein or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after the Closing, Fenwick shall be permitted to represent the Participating Securityholders, any of their agents and Affiliates, or any one or more of them, in connection with any negotiation, transaction or dispute (including any litigation, arbitration or other adversary proceeding) with Parent, the Company or any of their agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and any related matter, such as claims or disputes arising under other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement, including with respect to any indemnification claims. Upon and after the Closing, the Company shall cease to have any attorney-client relationship with Fenwick, unless and to the extent Fenwick is specifically engaged in writing by Parent to represent the Company after the Closing and either such engagement involves no conflict of interest with respect to the Participating Securityholders or the Securityholder Representative consents in writing at the time to such engagement. Any such representation of the Company by Fenwick after the Closing shall not affect the foregoing provisions hereof. Parent further agrees that, as to all communications among Fenwick and the Company, the Participating Securityholders and/or the Securityholder Representative and their respective Affiliates

 

65


(individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”) that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the exception of client confidence belongs solely to the Securityholder Representative and may be controlled only by the Securityholder Representative and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent or the Company, because the interests of Parent and its Affiliates were directly adverse to the Company, the Participating Securityholders and the Securityholder Representative at the time such communications were made. This right to the attorney-client privilege shall exist even if such communications may exist on the Company’s computer system or in documents in the Company’s possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Parent, the Company, and a Person other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third-party of confidential communications by Fenwick to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative.
