Any Company Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has either obtained from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable determination letter as to its qualified status under the Code, including all amendments to the Code effected by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation or has been established under a standardized prototype plan for which an Internal Revenue Service opinion letter has been obtained by the plan sponsor and is valid as to the adopting employer. To the extent applicable, Parent has also made available to Acquirer a true, correct and complete copy of the most recent Internal Revenue Service determination or opinion letter issued with respect to each such Company Employee Plan, and nothing has occurred since the issuance of each such letter which would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the Tax-qualified status of any Company Employee Plan subject to Section 401(a) of the Code. Parent has also made available to Acquirer all registration statements and prospectuses prepared in connection with each Company Employee Plan, to the extent applicable. None of Seller, the Company nor any Subsidiary sponsors or maintains any self-funded Company Employee Plan, including any plan that includes stop-loss coverage.

(c)    None of the Company Employee Plans promises or provides retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any Person other than as required under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) or similar state law, and Seller and the Company have complied with the requirements of COBRA. Each Company Employee Plan has been administered in accordance with its terms and in compliance with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, rules and regulations (including ERISA and the Code), and Seller, the Company and each ERISA Affiliate has

performed all obligations required to be performed by it under, is not in default under or in violation of, and Parent has no knowledge of any default or violation by any other party to, any of the Company Employee Plans. None of Seller, the Company nor any Subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate is subject to any Liability or penalty under Sections 4976 through 4980 of the Code or Title I of ERISA with respect to any of the Company Employee Plans. All contributions required to be made by the Company, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate to any Company Employee Plan have been made on or before their due dates and a reasonable amount has been accrued for contributions to each Company Employee Plan for the current plan years (and no further contributions will be due or will have accrued thereunder as of the Closing Date, other than contributions accrued in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, after the Company Balance Sheet Date as a result of the operations of Company and the Subsidiaries after the Company Balance Sheet Date). No Company Employee Plan is covered by, and neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or expects to incur any Liability under Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. The participation of the Company’s employees can be terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Closing without Liability to Acquirer (other than ordinary administrative expenses typically incurred in a termination event). No suit, administrative proceeding, action, litigation or claim has been brought, or to the knowledge of Parent, is threatened, against or regarding any such Company Employee Plan with respect to the Company’s employees.

(d)    Since the Balance Sheet Date, there has been no change in participation or coverage under, any Company Employee Plan which would result in Liability to Acquirer. No Company Employee Plan will be subject to any surrender fees or service fees upon termination that will be incurred by Acquirer following the Closing based solely on actions taken prior to the Closing.

(e)    None of Parent, the Company nor any current or former ERISA Affiliate currently maintains, sponsors, participates in or contributes to, or has ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated in, or contributed to, any pension plan (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) which is subject to Part 3 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code.

(f)    None of Parent, the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party to, or has made any contribution to or otherwise incurred any obligation under, any “multiemployer plan” as such term is defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA or any “multiple employer plan” as such term is defined in Section 413(c) of the Code.

(g)    No Company Employee Plan is operated for the benefit of any employees of the Company outside of the United States.

(h)    Each of Seller, the Company and the Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with all currently applicable Legal Requirements respecting employment, discrimination in employment, terms and conditions of employment, worker classification (including the proper classification of workers as independent contractors and consultants), wages, hours and occupational safety and health and employment practices, including the Immigration Reform and Control Act with respect to any of the Company’s employees or service providers. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has withheld all amounts required by law or by agreement to be withheld from the wages, salaries, and other payments to employees; and is not liable for any arrears of wages, compensation, Taxes, penalties or other sums for failure to comply with any of the foregoing. The Company and each Subsidiary has paid in full to all employees, independent contractors and consultants of the Company all wages, salaries, commissions, bonuses, benefits and other compensation due to or on behalf of such employees, independent contractors and consultants. None of Seller, the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is liable for any payment to any trust or other fund or to any Governmental Entity, with respect to unemployment compensation benefits, social security or other

benefits or obligations for employees (other than routine payments to be made in the normal course of business and consistently with past practice). There is no litigation or controversies pending or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened, with respect to the Company’s employees or any trade union or other organization formed for a similar purpose or any other employee representative(s) of the Company and, to the knowledge of Parent, there are no circumstances which are likely to give rise to an action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or governmental investigation.

2.19    Customers and Suppliers.

(a)    Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any outstanding material disputes concerning its products and/or services with any customer or distributor who, in the year ended December 31, 2014, was one of the 20 largest sources of revenues for the Company and the Subsidiaries, based on amounts paid or payable (each, a “Significant Customer”), and Parent has no knowledge of any material dissatisfaction

on the part of any Significant Customer. Each Significant Customer is listed on Schedule 2.19(a) of the Disclosure Letter. No Group Company has received any information from any Significant Customer that such customer shall not continue as a customer of the Company or such Subsidiary (or Acquirer) after the Closing or that such customer intends to terminate or materially modify existing Contracts with the Company or such Subsidiary (or Acquirer). The Company has not had any of its products returned by a purchaser thereof except for normal warranty returns consistent with past history and those returns that would not result in a reversal of any revenue by the Company.

Allowances for doubtful accounts, sales return reserves and warranty returns have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and in accordance with the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ past practices and are sufficient to provide for any losses which may be sustained on realization of the receivables as reflected on the Company Balance Sheet and as will be reflected in the Company Closing Financial Certificate. The accounts receivable of the Company and the Subsidiaries arising after the Company Balance Sheet Date and before the Closing Date as will be reflected in the Company Closing Financial Certificate arose or shall arise in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, represented or shall represent bona fide claims against debtors for sales and other charges, less allowances for doubtful accounts, sales return reserves and warranty returns determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ past practices which are or shall be sufficient to provide for any losses which may be sustained on realization of the receivables. None of the accounts receivable of the Company and the Subsidiaries is subject to any claim of offset, recoupment, setoff or counter-claim, and the Company has no knowledge of any specific facts or circumstances (whether asserted or unasserted) that could give rise to any such claim. No material amount of accounts receivable is contingent upon the performance by the Company or any Subsidiary of any obligation or Contract other than normal warranty repair and replacement. No Person has any lien on any of such accounts receivable, and no agreement for deduction or discount has been made with respect to any of such accounts receivable. Schedule 2.20 of the Disclosure Letter sets forth an aging of the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ accounts receivable in the aggregate and by customer, and indicates the amounts of allowances for doubtful accounts, sales return reserves and warranty returns. Schedule 2.20 of the Disclosure Letter sets forth such amounts of accounts receivable of the Company and the Subsidiaries which are subject to asserted warranty claims by customers and reasonably detailed information regarding asserted warranty claims made within the last year, including the type and amounts of such claims.

2.21    Representations Complete. None of the representations or warranties made by Parent or Seller herein or in any exhibit or schedule hereto, including the Disclosure Letter, or in any certificate furnished by Parent or Seller pursuant to this Agreement, when all such documents are read together in their entirety, contains any untrue statement of a material fact, or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in the light of the circumstances under which made, not misleading.

(c)    No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity, is required by or with respect to Acquirer in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except such consents, authorizations, filings, approvals, notices and registrations which, if not obtained or made, would not be material to Acquirer’s ability to consummate the Purchase or to perform its obligations under this Agreement and would not prevent, materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

No delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision in this Agreement.

(a)    At the Closing, the Escrow Cash shall be deposited with the Escrow Agent, such deposit, together with any interest that may be earned thereof, to constitute an escrow fund (the “Escrow Fund”) and to be governed by the provisions set forth herein and in the Escrow Agreement. Following the Closing, the Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other

Indemnified Person (as such term is defined in Section 8.2 below)) for Indemnifiable Damages (as such term is defined in Section 8.2 below) pursuant to the indemnification obligations of Parent. No portion of the Escrow Fund, nor any beneficial interest therein, may be pledged, subjected to any Encumbrance, sold, assigned or transferred, by Parent, or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other Liability of Parent, in each case prior to the disbursement of the Escrow Fund to Parent in accordance with Section 8.1(b) below.

(b)    Within five Business Days following the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date (the “Escrow Release Date”), the parties will issue a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to disburse to Parent the Escrow Fund less (i) that portion of the Escrow Fund previously paid to Acquirer in satisfaction of claims for indemnification in accordance with Article 8 of this Agreement and (ii) the total amount of all unsatisfied or disputed claims for indemnification specified in any Claim Certificate (as defined in Section 8.5 below) delivered to Parent prior to the Escrow Release Date.

8.2    Indemnification.

(a)    Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 8, Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless Acquirer and its officers, directors, agents and employees, and each person, if any, who controls or may control Acquirer within the meaning of the Securities Act (each of the foregoing being referred to individually as an “Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all losses, Liabilities, damages, fees, interest, costs and expenses, including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable fees and expenses of lawyers, experts and other professionals, directly or indirectly, whether or not due to a third-party claim (collectively, “Indemnifiable Damages”), arising out of, resulting from or in connection with:

(b)    Materiality standards or qualifications, and qualifications by reference to the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in any representation, warranty or covenant shall only be taken into account in determining whether a breach of or default in connection with such representation, warranty or covenant (or failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct) exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such breach, default or failure to be true and correct.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Indemnified Person may make a claim against the Escrow Fund in respect of any claim for indemnification that is made pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than claims arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with (x) any failure of any Fundamental Representation or (y) fraud by a Group Company), unless and until a Claim Certificate (as defined below) describing Indemnifiable Damages in an aggregate amount greater than $42,500 (the “Threshold”) has been delivered, in which case the Indemnified Person may make claims for indemnification for all Indemnifiable Damages (including the amount of the Threshold), subject to applicable limitations contained herein.

(b)    If the Purchase is consummated, recovery from the Escrow Fund shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for the indemnification obligations under this Agreement for the matters listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a), except in the case of (A) fraud by a Group Company, (B) claims arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with any failure of any Fundamental Representation and (C) the matters listed in clauses (iii)-(ix) of Section 8.2(a) (the matters described in clauses (A), (B) and (C), collectively, the “Fundamental Matters”). In the case of the Fundamental Matters, after Indemnified Persons have exhausted or made claims upon the Escrow Fund (after taking into account all other claims for indemnification from the Escrow Fund made by Indemnified Persons), and for all other claims, Parent shall be liable for any such Indemnifiable Damages resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the total Liability of Parent for indemnification arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with any failure of the representations and warranties of Parent in Section 2.10 (Intellectual Property) shall be limited to 75% of the Total Consideration, (ii) the total Liability of Parent for indemnification pursuant to this Article 8 for all other Fundamental Matters shall be limited to the Total

Consideration and (iii) any limitation of Liability in this Section 8.3(b) shall not apply in the case of fraud by a Group Company.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amounts that an Indemnified Person recovers from the Escrow Fund pursuant to Fundamental Matters shall not reduce the amount that an Indemnified Person may recover with respect to claims that are not Fundamental Matters. By way of illustration and not limitation, assuming there are no other claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, in the event that Indemnifiable Damages resulting from a Fundamental Matter are first satisfied from the Escrow Fund and such recovery fully depletes the Escrow Fund, the maximum amount recoverable by an Indemnified Person pursuant to a subsequent claim that is not a Fundamental Matter shall continue to be the full Escrow Amount irrespective of the fact that the Escrow Fund was used to satisfy such Fundamental Matter, such that the amount recoverable for such two claims would be the same regardless of the chronological order in which they were made.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) Parent shall not have any right of indemnification, compensation, reimbursement, contribution or right of advancement from Acquirer, the Company or any other Indemnified Person with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Indemnified Person or any right of subrogation against the Company with respect to any indemnification, compensation or reimbursement of an Indemnified Person by reason of any of the matters set forth in Section 8.2(a), (ii) the rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons after the Closing shall not be limited by (x) any investigation by or on behalf of, or disclosure to (other than in the Disclosure Letter with respect to clause (i) of Section 8.2(a), subject to any limitations expressly set forth therein), any Indemnified Person at or prior to the Closing regarding any failure, breach or other event or circumstance or (y) any waiver of any condition to the Closing related thereto and (iii) if an Indemnified Person’s claim under this Article 8 may be properly characterized in multiple ways in accordance with this Article 8 such that such claim may or may not be subject to different limitations depending on such characterization, then such Indemnified Person shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery and time to assert such claim permitted in accordance with this Article 8; provided that nothing herein shall limit the liability of Parent for any fraud by a Group Company.

(e)    In no event shall Parent be liable pursuant to Section 8.2 for any punitive or special damages, except and to the extent that such damages are payable by an Indemnified Person to a third party.

(f)    All Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(vi) shall be calculated net of the amount of any actual recoveries actually received by an Indemnified Person prior to the Escrow Release Date under any existing directors and officers insurance policies (calculated net of any actual collection costs and reserves, expenses, deductibles or premium adjustments or retrospectively rated premiums (as determined in good faith by an Indemnified Person) incurred or paid to procure such recoveries) in respect of any Indemnifiable Damages suffered, paid, sustained or incurred by any Indemnified Person.

8.4    Period for Claims Against Escrow Fund. Except with respect to Fundamental Matters, the period during which claims for Indemnifiable Damages may be made (the “Claims Period”) against the Escrow Fund for Indemnifiable Damages shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. California time on the Escrow Release Date. The Claims Period for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with Fundamental Matters shall commence at the Closing and terminate upon the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such matter; provided that the Claims Period for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 2.12 (Taxes) shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. California time on the date that is six years after the Closing Date,

provided, further, that the Claims Period for any claim arising out of, resulting from or in connection with fraud by a Group Company shall commence at the Closing and survive indefinitely.

(a)    With respect to claims for Indemnifiable Damages against the Escrow Fund, on or before the last day of the applicable Claims Period, Acquirer may deliver to Parent a certificate signed by any officer of Acquirer (an “Claim Certificate”):

(i)    stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, or that it reasonably believes it will incur, pay, reserve or accrue, Indemnifiable Damages;

(ii)    stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount reasonably believed by Acquirer to be incurred, paid, reserved, accrued or demanded by a third party); and

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

No delay in providing such Claim Certificate within the Claims Period shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) Parent is materially prejudiced thereby. At the time of delivery of any Claim Certificate to Parent, if such delivery is on or before the Escrow Release Date, a duplicate copy of such Claim Certificate shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent by or on behalf of Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person).

(a)    If Parent does not contest, by written notice to Acquirer, any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within 20 Business Days after any such Claim Certificate is received by Parent, then Parent will be conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Indemnified Person of the full amount of Indemnifiable Damages specified in the Claim Certificate, including the forfeiture of such amount from the Escrow Fund having a value sufficient to satisfy such Indemnifiable Damages and, without further notice, to have stipulated to the entry of a final judgment for Indemnifiable Damages against Parent for such amount in any court having jurisdiction over the matter where venue is proper.

(b)    If Parent objects in writing to any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within such 20 Business Day period, Acquirer and Parent shall attempt in good faith for 30 Business Days after Acquirer’s receipt of such written objection to resolve such objection. If Acquirer and Parent shall so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such memorandum and the Escrow Agent shall distribute such amount from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of such memorandum.

(c)    If no such agreement can be reached during the 30 Business Day period for good faith negotiation, but in any event upon the expiration of such 30 Business Day period, Acquirer and Parent will select a mutually-acceptable mediator to mediate the dispute. Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator. Upon the completion of such mediation proceeding, if no agreement has been reached, either Acquirer or Parent may bring an arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 9.9 to resolve the matter. The Final Award of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in a Claim Certificate shall be non-appealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto, and the parties

shall be entitled act in accordance with such decision. The Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Funds as directed by any applicable Final Award or order from a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction (such order or Final Award, a “Final Order”).

(d)    Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

8.7    Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquirer becomes aware of a third-party claim which Acquirer in good faith believes may result in a claim for indemnification under this Article 8 by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Acquirer shall have the right to conduct the defense of and to settle or resolve any such claim (and the costs and expenses incurred by Acquirer in connection with such defense, settlement or resolution (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Indemnifiable Damages for which Acquirer may seek indemnification pursuant to a claim made hereunder). Parent 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 does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Person and shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, any defense of the third-party claim or settlement negotiations with respect to the third-party claim. However, except with the consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which shall be deemed to have been given unless Parent shall have objected within 15 days after a written request for such consent by Acquirer, no settlement or resolution by Acquirer of any claim that gives rise to a claim against the Escrow Fund by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person shall be determinative of the existence of or amount of Indemnifiable Damages relating to such matter. In the event that Parent has consented to any such settlement or resolution, Parent shall not have any power or authority to object under Section 8.5 or any other provision of this Article 8 to the amount of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person against the Escrow Fund or otherwise for indemnity with respect to such settlement or resolution.

9.1    Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. If the Purchase is consummated, the representations and warranties of Parent contained in this Agreement, the Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit or schedule to the Disclosure Letter), and the other certificates contemplated hereby shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or disclosure made by or on behalf of any of the parties to this Agreement, until 11:59 p.m. California time on the Escrow Release Date, or in the case of the Fundamental Representations, until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such Fundamental Representations; provided, that no right to indemnification pursuant to Article 8 in respect of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages that is set forth in a Claim Certificate delivered to Parent prior to the applicable expiration date of such representation or warranty shall be affected by the expiration of such representation or warranty; provided, further, that such expiration shall not affect the rights of any Indemnified Person under Article 8 or otherwise to seek recovery of Indemnifiable Damages arising out of fraud by a Group Company. The representations and warranties of Acquirer contained in this Agreement and the other agreements, certificates and documents contemplated hereby shall expire and be of no further force or effect at 11:59 p.m. California time on the Escrow Release Date. All covenants of the parties that by their terms contemplate performance after the Closing Date shall survive the Closing for the period contemplated by their terms or, if no such period is specified, until 11:59 p.m. California time on the Escrow Release Date. All other covenants of the parties shall expire at the Closing.
