AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of June 3, 2012 by and among salesforce.com, inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Bullseye Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Buddy Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity as stockholder representative (the “Stockholder Representative”). All capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company believe it is advisable and in the best interests of each corporation and its respective stockholders that Parent acquire the Company through the statutory merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and, in furtherance thereof, have approved this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, as more fully set forth herein, in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, covenants and other premises set forth herein, the mutual benefits to be gained by the performance thereof, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and accepted, the parties hereto 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 subject to the applicable provisions of Delaware Law, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The Company, as the surviving corporation of the Merger, is sometimes referred to herein as the “Surviving Corporation.”

1.2 Closing and Effective Time. Unless this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, the Merger shall be consummated at a closing (the “Closing”) on the later of (a) a date within two (2) Business Days following satisfaction or waiver (if permissible hereunder) of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to satisfaction or waiver (if permissible hereunder) of those conditions), or (b) August 13, 2012, at the offices of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, One Market, Spear Tower, Suite 3300, San Francisco, California, unless another time or place is mutually agreed upon in writing by Parent and the Company. The date upon which the Closing actually occurs shall be referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” On the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing a Certificate of Merger, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Merger”) in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware Law (the time of such filing and acceptance by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or such other later time as may be agreed in writing by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger, shall be referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).


1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, 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 of Surviving Corporation.

(a) Certificate of Incorporation. Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to be identical to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, until thereafter amended in accordance with Delaware Law and as provided in 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 Buddy Media, Inc.”

(b) Bylaws. Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time until thereafter amended in accordance with Delaware Law and as provided in the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such bylaws.

1.5 Directors and Officers of Surviving Corporation.

(a) Directors. Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time, each to hold the office of a director of the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Delaware Law and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.

(b) Officers. Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time, each to hold office in accordance with the provisions of the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

1.6 Effect of Merger on Capital Stock of Constituent Corporations.

(a) Effect on Merger Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Effect on Company Capital Stock.

(i) Company Capital Stock Held by Accredited Investors. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, each share of Company Capital Stock (excluding (A) shares of Company Capital Stock held by Unaccredited Investors, which shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(b)(ii),

 

-2-


(B) Company Restricted Stock, which shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(b)(iii), (C) Cancelled Shares, which shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(b)(iv), and (D) Dissenting Shares, which shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 1.6(b)(v)) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, upon the terms set forth in this Section 1.6(b)(i) and throughout this Agreement (including the escrow holdback and indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement) and surrender of the certificate representing such shares of Company Capital Stock in the manner provided in Section 1.7, the Per Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Stock Consideration (together, the “Merger Consideration”), less (x) the portion of the Merger Consideration to be withheld at the Closing and deposited into the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(ii), which will distributed to the former holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and (y) the cash to be withheld and deposited with the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(iv), which will be distributed to the former holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of cash payable and shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to each Stockholder pursuant to this Section 1.6(b)(i), (x) all shares of the Company Capital Stock held by each such Stockholder shall be aggregated on a certificate-by-certificate basis, (y) the amount of cash to be paid to each Stockholder for each Company share certificate held by such Stockholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent, and (z) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to each Stockholder in exchange for each Company share certificate held by such Stockholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger. Any Stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock shall receive an amount of cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) such fraction by (B) the Parent Trading Price, rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

(ii) Company Capital Stock Held by Unaccredited Investors. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, each share of Company Capital Stock (excluding Dissenting Shares and Company Restricted Stock) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by an Unaccredited Investor shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, upon the terms set forth in this Section 1.6(b)(ii) and throughout this Agreement (including the escrow holdback and indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement) and surrender of the certificate representing such shares of Company Capital Stock in the manner provided in Section 1.7 hereof, a cash payment equal to the Per Share Consideration, less (x) the portion of the Merger Consideration to be withheld at the Closing and deposited into the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(ii), which will distributed to the former holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and (y) the cash to be withheld and deposited with the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(iv), which will be distributed to the former holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of cash payable to each Stockholder pursuant to this Section 1.6(b)(ii), (x) all shares of the Company Capital Stock held by each such Stockholder shall be aggregated on a certificate-by-certificate basis, and (y) the amount of cash to be paid to each Stockholder for each Company share certificate held by such Stockholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

(iii) Company Restricted Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, each share of Company Restricted Stock that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, upon the terms set forth in this Section 1.6(b)(iii) and throughout this Agreement and surrender of the certificate

 

-3-


representing such shares of Company Capital Stock in the manner provided in Section 1.7 hereof, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each share of Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to this Section 1.6(b)(iii) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) set forth in the Plan, if applicable, and the Company Restricted Stock agreements relating thereto, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(iv) Cancelled Shares. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or the Stockholders, each share of Company Capital Stock that is issued and outstanding and held by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time other than Escrowed Shares (“Cancelled Shares”) shall be cancelled without any consideration paid therefor.

(v) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and with respect to which the holder thereof has properly demanded appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of Delaware Law, and who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s appraisal rights under Delaware Law (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the applicable consideration for Company Capital Stock set forth in Section 1.6(b)(i), Section 1.6(b)(ii) or Section 1.6(b)(iii), as applicable, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are provided by Delaware Law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1.6(b)(v), if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s appraisal rights under Delaware Law, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares, upon the terms set forth in this Section 1.6 and throughout this Agreement (including the escrow holdback and indemnification provisions of this Agreement), the consideration for Company Capital Stock set forth in Section 1.6(b)(i), Section 1.6(b)(ii) or Section 1.6(b)(iii), as applicable, without interest thereon. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to any such demands, or offer to settle or settle such demands, in any case unless such payment or settlement (A) is paid by the Company in full prior to Closing (and, therefore, fully reflected in the calculation of Closing Cash hereunder), (B) only involves the payment of cash prior to the Closing and does not involve any other non-monetary remedy, and (C) includes as a condition thereto an unconditional, irrevocable and full release of any and all appraisal, dissenters’ or other similar claims, causes of action and rights (and all related matters) under all applicable Legal Requirements against the Company and its Subsidiaries and Parent and its Affiliates.

(c) Treatment of Company Options and Company RSUs.

(i) Company Options.

(A) Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company Option (or portion thereof), whether vested or unvested, that is held by a Continuing Employee and is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent as a Parent Option. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each Company Option so assumed by Parent pursuant to this Section 1.6(c)(i)(A) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) set forth in the Plan and the option agreements relating thereto, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (x) such assumed Company Option shall be

 

-4-


exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock and (y) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such assumed Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Closing Date by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exercise price of the option, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option shall in all events be determined in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, and in the case of any Company 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.

(B) Effective as of the Effective Time, (1) each Company Option (or portion thereof), whether vested or unvested, that is held by a Non-Continuing Employee, and (2) each Vested Company Option that is held by a Departing Employee, in each case, that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger, be immediately cancelled and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 1.6(c)(i)(B) and throughout this Agreement and in consideration of such cancellation, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the excess of the Per Share Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option over the per share exercise price of such Company Option. Promptly following the Closing, Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) the cash amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.6(c)(i)(B) in respect of such Company Options.

(C) Effective as of the Effective Time, each unvested Company Option that is held by a Departing Employee and is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of such Departing Employee’s termination of employment or service with the Company on or prior to the Effective Time, be immediately cancelled without the payment of any consideration.

(ii) Company RSUs.

(A) Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is held by a Continuing Employee and is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent as a Parent RSU. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each Company RSU so assumed by Parent pursuant to this Section 1.6(c)(ii)(A) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) set forth in the Plan and the Company RSU agreements relating thereto, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that such assumed Company RSU shall cover that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock.

(B) Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is held by a Non-Continuing Employee and is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger, be immediately cancelled and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 1.6(c)(ii)(B) and throughout this Agreement, in consideration of such cancellation, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Per Share Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU. Promptly following the Closing, Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) the cash amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.6(c)(ii)(B) in respect of such Company RSUs.

 

-5-


(C) Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is held by a Departing Employee and is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of such Departing Employee’s termination of employment or service with the Company on or prior to the Effective Time, be immediately cancelled without the payment of any consideration.

(iii) Necessary Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to the review and reasonable approval of Parent, the Company shall take all actions necessary to effect the transactions anticipated by this Section 1.6(c) under all Company Options, Company RSUs, the Plan, and any other plan or arrangement of the Company (whether written or oral, formal or informal), including determination by the administrator of the Plan that the treatment of Company Options and Company RSUs as contemplated by this Section 1.6(c) is permissible under the terms of the Plan and the applicable equity award agreements, delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary approvals and consents, and delivering evidence satisfactory to Parent that all necessary determinations by the Company’s Board of Directors or applicable committee of the Company’s Board of Directors to terminate and/or cash out Company Options and Company RSUs in accordance with this Section 1.6(c) have been made.

(iv) Notice. Within ten (10) Business Days following the date hereof, the Company shall deliver notice to the holders of Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company RSUs, which such notice shall be in compliance with the terms of such equity award, that the Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company RSUs, as the case may be, will be treated as set forth in Section 1.6(b)(iii) and Section 1.6(c). Any materials to be submitted to the holders of Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company RSUs in connection with the notice required under this Section 1.6(c)(iv) shall be subject to advance review and approval by Parent, which Parent shall not unreasonably withhold or delay provided the Company considers in good faith any comments or proposed revisions made by Parent thereto.

(v) No Acceleration. The Board of Directors of the Company shall not resolve to accelerate the vesting of any Company Restricted Stock, Company Options or Company RSUs, other than Company Options and Company RSUs held by Non-Continuing Employees.

(vi) S-8 Registration. As soon as practicable (and in any event within six (6) Business Days) after the Closing Date, Parent shall file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 or another appropriate form (in any case if available for use by Parent), 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 Company Options and settlement of all Company RSUs, in each case, that are assumed by Parent pursuant to Section 1.6(c) 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 Company Options or Company RSUs remain outstanding; provided, however, that (A) in the event that the filing deadline contemplated by this Section 1.6(c)(vi) shall occur during a trading “blackout” period under Parent’s securities trading policies, then Parent shall not be required to file the registration statement contemplated by this Section 1.6(c)(vi) until such “blackout” period is no longer applicable, and (B) Parent shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations hereunder if Parent shall fail to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.6(c)(vi) at a time when trading of Parent Common Stock has been suspended globally under Parent’s then effective registration statements (it being understood and agreed that if Parent is unable to file such registration statement on Form S-8 due to a global trading suspension under Parent’s then effective registration statements, then Parent shall file such registration statement as soon as practicable after trading has been restored).

 

-6-


(d) Treatment of Company Warrants. At the Effective Time, each Company Warrant that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, if permissible pursuant to the terms of such Company Warrant and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, terminate in its entirety.

1.7 Payment of Merger Consideration for Company Capital Stock.

(a) Exchange Agent. US Bank National Association, or another Person selected by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company, shall serve as the exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the Merger.

-37-


consummation of, the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as possible after the execution of this Agreement.

Each of the Company and Parent shall direct, in its sole discretion, the making of such response, but shall consider in good faith the views of the other.

(b) Without limiting the generality or effect of Section 5.3(a), each of the Company and Parent shall, as soon as practicable (but in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days) after the execution of this Agreement, make any initial filings required under the HSR Act in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Parent shall, in consultation with the Company and subject to Section 5.3(b), determine strategy, lead all proceedings and coordinate all activities with respect to seeking any actions, consents, approvals or waivers of any Governmental Entity as contemplated hereby, and the Company and its Subsidiaries will take such actions as reasonably requested by Parent in connection with obtaining such consents, approvals or waivers. Notwithstanding Parent’s rights to lead all proceedings as provided in the prior sentence, Parent shall not require the Company to, and the Company shall not be required to, take any action with respect to any applicable antitrust or anti-competition Legal Requirement which would bind the Company or its Subsidiaries irrespective of whether the Merger occurs.

The Board of Directors of the Company shall not alter, modify, change or revoke the Company Recommendation.

(b) 280G Approvals. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall obtain and deliver to Parent a 280G Waiver from each Person who Parent reasonably believes is, with respect to the Company and/or any ERISA Affiliate, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), and who might otherwise have, receive or have the right or entitlement to receive, separately or in the aggregate, “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder), pursuant to which each such Person shall agree, unless the 280G Approval (as defined below) has been obtained in a manner that satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, to waive any and all right or entitlement to such “parachute payments” and each such 280G Waiver shall remain in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall submit to the Stockholders for approval (in a form and manner satisfactory to Parent), by such number of Stockholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, any “parachute payments”, such that such payments and benefits shall not be deemed to be “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall deliver to Parent evidence satisfactory to Parent that (i) a Stockholder vote was solicited in conformance with Section 280G and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the requisite Stockholder approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the Stockholder vote (the “280G Approval”), or (ii) that the 280G Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, that such “parachute payments” shall not be made or provided, pursuant to the waivers of those payments and/or benefits which were executed by the affected individuals on the date of this Agreement.

5.5 Access to Information. The Company shall, upon reasonable request and notice, afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours during the period from the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time to (a) the properties and assets, Books and Records, Contracts and Company IP of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (b) such other information concerning the business, properties and personnel (subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law) of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request, and (c) all Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (i) such access does not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Company, and (ii) the Company may withhold or restrict access to any document or information solely if and to the extent that the disclosure of such information would reasonably be expected to violate any Contract or any applicable Legal Requirement or result in the waiver of any legal privilege or work-product privilege. With respect to any information that the Company is permitted to withhold pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso, unless such information relates to a transaction with the Company within the six-month period immediately preceding May 14, 2012, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (A) obtain the required consent of any third party that is necessary to enable the Company to provide access or disclosure to Parent, (B) with respect to information that is subject to a legal privilege or work-product privilege, enter into a joint defense agreement or other arrangement, as appropriate, so as to enable the Company to disclose such information to Parent in a manner that does not result in the loss of such privilege, and (C) develop an alternative means by which to provide Parent with such information in a manner that does not violate the applicable Contract or Legal Requirement or jeopardize the applicable privilege. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.5 or otherwise shall affect or be deemed to modify, amend or supplement any representation or warranty contained herein or in the Disclosure Schedule or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, restrict, impair or otherwise affect any Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification hereunder or otherwise prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant.

No disclosure by the Company pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall affect or be deemed to modify, amend or supplement any representation or warranty contained herein or in the Disclosure Schedule or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, restrict, impair or otherwise affect any Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification hereunder or otherwise prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant.

Unless instructed otherwise by Parent, effective as of no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company shall terminate any and all Company Employee Plans intended to include group severance pay or benefits and any Code Section 401(k) arrangement (each, a “401(k) Plan”) (unless Parent provides written notice to the Company that such 401(k) plans shall not be terminated). The Company shall provide Parent with evidence that any such Company Employee Plan has been terminated pursuant to resolutions of the board of directors (or similar body) of the Company or its ERISA Affiliates, as the case may be. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating any such Company Employee Plan as Parent may require. In the event that termination of a 401(k) Plan would reasonably be anticipated to trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees, then such charges and/or fees shall be included in Third Party Expenses and shall be the responsibility of the Company, and the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to reasonably estimate the amount of such charges and/or fees and provide such estimate in the Spreadsheet.

(d) New Employment Arrangements. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause one of its subsidiaries to, extend an offer of employment to each employee of the Company or any Subsidiary in one of Parent’s customary forms (an “Offer Letter”) to become an employee of Parent or one of its subsidiaries effective on the first Business Day after the Closing. Each such Offer Letter shall provide each Continuing Employee with overall salary and benefits (including any equity or equity-based plan, program or arrangement) which, in the aggregate, are no less favorable than those provided to each such Continuing Employee by the Company or any Subsidiary immediately prior to the date hereof (excluding any equity or equity-based plan, program or arrangement); provided, however, that Parent shall not be obligated under the terms of this Agreement to cause the continuation of any employment relationship with any Continuing Employee for any specific period of time. In the event that any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary declines to accept Parent’s offer of employment made in accordance with this Section 5.9(d), the Company or a Subsidiary (as applicable) shall terminate the employment of such person effective prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall credit each Continuing Employee for all service with the Company (or any Subsidiary) prior to the Closing for purposes of eligibility and vesting under any vacation plan or paid time off policy of Parent.

(e) Employee Retention Program. Schedule 5.9(e) hereto is incorporated herein by reference.

(f) No Employment Commitment or Plan Amendments. Except for Section 5.14, no provision of this Agreement is intended, or shall be interpreted, to provide or create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind or nature whatsoever in any stockholder, Key Employee, Other Employee, consultant, contractor or any other Person, including any rights of employment for any specified period and/or any employee benefits, in favor of any Person, union, association, continuing employee, Key Employee, Other Employee, consultant or contractor or any other Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and all provisions hereof will be personal solely among the parties to this Agreement.

(a) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or its successor shall fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company with respect to all rights to indemnification (including advancement of expenses) or exculpation existing in favor of, and all limitations on the personal liability of, any Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Charter Documents or in any indemnification agreements in effect as of the date hereof and set forth in Section 5.14 of the Disclosure Schedule (each, a “D&O Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “D&O Indemnified Parties”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall have no obligation to maintain the existence of the Surviving Corporation for any specified period following the Effective Time.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase (and pay in full all premiums on) an extended reporting period endorsement under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the Company’s directors and officers on terms reasonably acceptable to Parent that shall provide such directors and officers with coverage for six (6) years following the Effective Time of not less than the existing coverage and have other terms not materially less favorable to the insured Persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Company; provided, however, that to the extent any premiums with respect to such policy have not been paid in full by the Company prior to the Effective Time, then such payments shall be Third Party Expenses hereunder. After the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall maintain such policy in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder; provided, however, that Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall have no obligation to pay premiums or any other amounts with respect to such policy.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations under this Section 5.14 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party to whom this Section 5.14 applies without the consent of such affected D&O Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the D&O Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 5.14 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.14 and shall be entitled to enforce the covenants contained herein).

(d) In the event that, following the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or (iii) commences a dissolution, liquidation, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar action, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that either the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14.

(iv) regardless of the disclosure of any matter set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, any fraud or willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation on the part of the Company, any Subsidiary, any Stockholder or any Representative of any of the foregoing in connection with this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby;

(vii) any Taxes of the Company (A) attributable to any taxable period or portion thereof that ends on or prior to the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”), including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Transaction Payroll Taxes, it being understood that, in the case of Taxes based upon income, sales, proceeds, profits, receipts, wages, compensation or similar items, the Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined on the basis of a closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of any other Taxes of the Company attributable to such Tax period shall equal the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period up to and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the taxable period), (B) any Taxes as a result of the Company being (or ceasing to be) on or prior to the Closing Date (1) a member of an affiliated or combined group pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law prior to the Closing Date or (2) a transferee or successor by contract or otherwise, which relate to an event occurring on or before the Closing Date, (C) as a result of an express or implied obligation arising on or prior to Closing Date to indemnify or otherwise assume or succeed to the Taxes of any other Person, or (D) any transfer or other Taxes arising directly (or indirectly) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any ancillary agreement, to the extent not reflected in the case of each of the preceding clauses (A) – (D) in the calculation of the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount; provided that the Stockholders shall have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Parties against any Losses resulting solely from Taxes resulting from (x) a Code Section 338 election with respect to Parent’s acquisition of the Company’s stock pursuant to this Agreement, (y) any transactions occurring after the Effective Time outside the ordinary course of business (other than as explicitly contemplated by this Agreement), or (z) any breach by Parent of Section 5.13 hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Article VII only, once it has been established that there has been any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty, or any failure by the Company to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement, solely for the purpose of determining the amount of Losses suffered as a result of any such breach, inaccuracy or failure (separate and apart from establishing that there has been any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty, or any failure to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement by the Company), any

 

-50-


representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by the Company that is qualified or limited in scope as to materiality, “Company Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifications shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification for the purpose of determining the amount of such Losses.

(b) The Stockholders (including any officer or director of the Company) shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from the Surviving Corporation or Parent with respect to any Loss claimed by an Indemnified Party.

(c) Any payments made to an Indemnified Party pursuant to any indemnification obligations under this Article VII will be treated as adjustments to the Total Consideration for Tax purposes and such agreed treatment will govern for purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties from and after the Effective Time for any claims arising under this Agreement, including claims of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) this Section 7.2(d) shall not be deemed a waiver by any party of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief and (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of a Stockholder (and this Article VII shall not be the sole and exclusive remedy in respect of such Stockholder) in connection with a claim based on fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation committed by or with the actual knowledge of such Stockholder.

Except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation and indemnification claims for breaches of or inaccuracies in the Special Representations, the Indemnified Parties, as a group, may not recover any Losses pursuant to an indemnification claim under Section 7.2(a)(i) unless and until the Indemnified Parties, as a group, shall have paid, incurred, suffered or sustained at least $1,000,000 in Losses in the aggregate, in which case the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover all Losses above the first $500,000 of Losses paid, incurred, suffered or sustained by the Indemnified Parties as a group. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Section 7.3(a) shall not apply to indemnification claims under clauses (ii) – (vii) of Section 7.2(a), inclusive.

(i) Except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, and indemnification claims for breaches of or inaccuracies in the Special Representations or indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(iii) that are predicated on assumed breaches of or inaccuracies in the Special Representations, the Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive source of recovery for indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(i) and Section 7.2(a)(iii) shall be recourse against the cash and shares of Parent Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Section 7.3(b)(i) shall not apply to any indemnification claim under clauses (ii) – (vii) of Section 7.2(a), inclusive.

 

-51-


(ii) The Indemnified Parties’ first source of recovery for indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a) shall be recourse against the cash and shares of Parent Common Stock 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) – (vii) 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 Stockholders (the portion of any Loss for which indemnification is not satisfied by the Escrow Fund is referred to as an “Excess Loss”).

(c) Except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, (i) 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 and indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(iii) that are predicated on assumed breaches of or inaccuracies in the IP Representations shall be limited to a dollar amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Total Consideration; and (ii) 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 Compliance Representations and indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(iii) that are predicated on assumed breaches of or inaccuracies in the Compliance Representations shall be limited to $74,500,000 in the aggregate.

(d) Except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation committed by or with the actual knowledge of such Stockholder, the liability of each Stockholder 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 Total Consideration (including such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Amount, Representative Expense Amount and the BO Earn Out Amount) payable to such Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement (without regard to any withholding, vesting or other similar limitation applicable to such payments) (valuing the Parent Common Stock for this purpose using the Parent Trading Price).

(e) 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 Section 7.3(b), subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.3(b) – (d), the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to bring indemnification claims under Section 7.2(a)(i) – (vii) as applicable against any or all of the Stockholders for the Excess Losses, and each Stockholder shall be liable for its, his or her Pro Rata Portion of the Excess Losses in respect of such indemnification claim; provided, however, that that the foregoing shall not limit the liability of a Stockholder who has committed fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, or has actual knowledge of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, with respect to such fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation.

(f) 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. No Indemnified Party shall be required to show reliance on any representation, warranty, certificate or other agreement in order for such Indemnified Party to be entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement hereunder.

 

-52-


(g) 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 with respect to such Loss (net of any costs to recover such insurance payments and any increased premiums resulting therefrom).

(h) 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).

(i) The amount of any Loss arising out of any item included as a liability in calculating the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount 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 Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article VII in respect of any Loss that is taken into account in the calculation of Total Consideration.

(j) 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.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, under no circumstances will either Party be liable to the other for any punitive damages, except to the extent such punitive damages are awarded to a third party pursuant to a Third Party Claim.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event will the amount of Losses for which the Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification hereunder be calculated or otherwise determined based on a multiple of any financial metric such as revenue, EBITDA or net income (and Parent hereby waives for itself and all other Indemnified Parties the right to calculate or otherwise determine Losses using a multiple of any financial metric).

(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 Stockholder in connection with a claim based on fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation committed by, or with the actual knowledge of, such Stockholder.

7.4 Indemnification Claim Procedures.

(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 Stockholder Representative (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) (or in the event an Indemnified Party elects to pursue such indemnification claim directly against a Stockholder, to such Stockholder directly) (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, incurred, suffered or sustained, or reasonably anticipates that it may pay, incur, suffer or sustain Losses, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items 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.

(b) If the Stockholder Representative on behalf of the Stockholders (or the Indemnifying Party in the event that indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from such Indemnifying Party) shall not object in writing within the 30-day period after receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice by delivery of a written notice of objection 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 Stockholder Representative on behalf of the Stockholders (or the applicable Indemnifying Party) 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 and shares of Parent Common Stock with an aggregate value equal to the Losses set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice as directed by the Stockholder Representative, with any shares of Parent Common Stock released from the Escrow Fund to be valued for this purpose using the Parent Trading Price.

(c) In the event that the Stockholder Representative (or in the event that indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party) shall deliver an Indemnification Claim Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.4(b) within 30 days after delivery of such Indemnification Claim Notice, the Stockholder Representative (or such objecting Indemnifying Party) 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 Stockholder Representative (or such objecting Indemnifying Party) and Parent should so agree, a memorandum 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 memorandum 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 and shares of Parent Common Stock with an aggregate value equal to the Losses set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice as directed by the Stockholder Representative, with any shares of Parent Common Stock released from the Escrow Fund to be valued for this purpose using the Parent Trading Price. 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 memorandum and this Agreement, then each Stockholder shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the date of such memorandum, pay to the Indemnified Party such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of such shortfall in cash.

(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 Stockholder Representative (or the objecting Indemnifying Party) 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 Stockholders and any Indemnifying Party, 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 Stockholders or any Indemnifying Party 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 other indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, Parent shall notify the Stockholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party) of such Third Party Claim, and the Stockholder Representative shall be entitled on behalf of the Stockholders (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party shall be entitled), at its expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim. 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 Stockholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party), 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 Stockholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party) has consented to any such settlement, the Stockholders 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 Stockholder Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder directly from an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party) 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 Stockholder Representative.

(a) By virtue of the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement, and the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Merger by the Stockholders, each of the Stockholders shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint Shareholder Representative Services LLC as its agent and attorney-in-fact, as the Stockholder Representative for and on behalf of the Stockholders 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 Stockholder or by any such Stockholder against any Indemnified Party or any dispute between any Indemnified Party and any such Stockholder, 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 Stockholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. Such agency may be changed by the Stockholders from time to time upon not less than 30 days prior written notice to Parent; provided, however, that the Stockholder Representative may not be removed unless holders of a two-thirds 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 Stockholder Representative or other vacancy in the position of Stockholder 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 Stockholder Representative, and the Stockholder Representative shall not receive any compensation for its services other than pursuant to the terms of that

 

-55-


certain Stockholder Representative Agreement, dated on or about the date hereof, entered into by and among the Stockholder Representative, the Company and certain of the Stockholders. Notices or communications to or from the Stockholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Stockholders.

(b) The Stockholder Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Stockholder Representative while acting in good faith and without gross negligence. The Stockholders on whose behalf the Escrow Amount was contributed to the Escrow Fund shall indemnify the Stockholder Representative and hold the Stockholder Representative harmless against any and all Losses arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Stockholder Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Stockholder Representative and any amounts required to be paid by the Stockholder Representative to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (“Stockholder Representative Expenses”), in each case, as such Stockholder Representative Expense is incurred or suffered; provided, that in the event that any such Stockholder Representative Expense is finally adjudicated to have arisen from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Stockholder Representative or any of its members, managers, agents, employees or affiliates, the Stockholder Representative will reimburse the Stockholders the amount of such Stockholder Representative Expense attributable to such bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Representative Expense Amount shall be available to reimburse the Stockholder Representative for any Stockholder Representative Expenses. Following the Expiration Date, the resolution of all indemnification claims made under this Agreement and the satisfaction of all such indemnification claims, the Stockholder Representative shall have the right to recover Stockholder Representative Expenses not previously recovered from the Representative Escrow Fund from the Escrow Fund prior to any distribution to the Stockholders, and prior to any such distribution, shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate setting forth the Stockholder Representative Expenses actually incurred and not previously recovered. For the avoidance of doubt, while this section allows the Stockholder Representative to be paid from the Representative Escrow Fund and Escrow Fund, this Section 7.6(b) shall not limit the obligation of any Stockholder to promptly pay such Stockholder 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 Stockholder Representative shall distribute such portion of the Representative Expense Amount that has not been used to reimburse the Stockholder Representative for Stockholder Representative Expenses, if any, to the Escrow Agent, who will promptly distribute such funds to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portions. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative, including an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3 or Section 8.4, shall constitute a decision of the Stockholders and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Stockholders; and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders. 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 Stockholder Representative.

9.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, Annex A hereto, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, the Related Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and are not intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder.

9.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.7 Specific Performance and Other Remedies.

(a) The parties to this Agreement agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the other party or parties hereto, any Stockholder or the Stockholder Representative of any covenant, obligation or other agreement set forth in this Agreement, (i) each party shall be entitled, without any proof of actual damages (and in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it), to a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other agreement and an injunction preventing or restraining such breach or threatened breach, and (ii) no party hereto shall be required to provide or post any bond or other security or collateral in connection with any such decree, order or injunction or in connection with any related action or legal proceeding.

(b) Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred herein upon a party hereto shall be deemed to be cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or in equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party hereto of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(c) The liability of any Person under Article VII will be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such Person may have at law or in equity based on such Person’s fraudulent acts or omissions, or willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation.

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).

The parties hereto and the Stockholders 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 (i) 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, (ii) 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 (iii) any other defense that would hinder or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any party hereto is entitled pursuant to any final judgment of any court having jurisdiction.

9.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

9.11 USA Patriot Act Compliance. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity the Escrow Agent will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. The Escrow Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation. The parties each agree to provide all such information and documentation as to themselves as requested by Escrow Agent to ensure compliance with federal law.

9.12 Conflict Waiver. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lowenstein Sandler PC has served as counsel to the Company in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, Lowenstein Sandler PC (or any successor) may serve as counsel to the
